How Many Moon Craters Are Named for Women? Fewer Than Youâd Guess.
By drawing the small number of lunar craters named for women, an artist hopes to highlight womenâs contributions to the sciences.

April is National Oral Health Month. In order to encourage good oral health, the Herald will be profiling dental clinics for April’s Business Features. This week we take a look at Dagasso Orthodontics.
Dr. Daniel Dagasso Orthodontics is a specialty dental practice that has been operating in Kamloops since 2012, and as a satellite office on Quilchena Ave. in Merritt since 2017.
Orthodontic treatment plays an important role in oral health, and is sometimes overlooked as people focus on conventional dentistry such as cleanings or extractions.
“We provide orthodontic care utilizing traditional metal or ceramic braces, or Invisalign for teens and adults,” said Dr. Dagasso.

On one side of the TikTok split screen was a middle-aged man, ranting that “millennials and Generation Z have the Peter Pan syndrome.”
“They don’t ever want to grow up,” he said, referring to the fictional character who fights adulthood.
On the other side of the split screen, a teenager contemplated the rant before silently holding up a notepad, and the phrase “OK Boomer” was born.
Since 2019, the hashtag #okboomer has been used 3.7 billion times on TikTok and has sparked debate between Boomers born 1946 to 1964 and Zoomers born in the 1990s to the 2010s, and who use the video conferencing app Zoom liberally about whether age and generation are to blame for society’s ills.
Based on interviews, field work and a review of government documents, the 218-page report concludes that Israeli laws and policies have subjugated Palestinians by virtue of their identity, amounting in some cases to persecution and apartheid both considered crimes against humanity under international law. We recognize that the word apartheid stings. But at the same time, apartheid is the reality for many Palestinians, Farida Deif, head of the Canadian chapter of Human Rights Watch, said in an interview. It’s high time for the Trudeau government to acknowledge that Israeli authorities are committing crimes against humanity and leverage its close partnership with Israel to end these violations.
