Boll & Branch Waffle Weave Organic Cotton Duvet Cover and Sham Set

Mac Cosmetics Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Liquid Foundation
Most of us don't want a foundation that feels heavy during humid summers. Luckily, this lightweight serum-like foundation drops its tinted pigment onto your skin and blends into a natural-looking finish. While our deals team is elbows deep in Memorial Day deals, that hasn't distracted us from seeing all the can't-miss sales at other retailers like Nordstrom. Its Half Yearly Sale always falls on our radar because of its ample savings across categories. After all, it only comes around twice a year, and the first one already happened in January. Part two brings up to 60% off new markdowns through June 1.
Our deals team has over a decade of combined commerce journalism experience. Rikka Altland, Jacqueline Saguin and Elena Matarazzo source the best deals of the day each morning to curate one-offs and retailer-specific roundups on the top products to shop, searching everything from coveted tech essentials to Memorial Day clothing deals.

Comedian Eric Idle says performers ‘ought to protect ourselves' from AI fakes
Monty Python star Eric Idle has said performers 'ought to protect ourselves' from artificial intelligence (AI) copies of their work and likeness The 82-year-old comedian told the PA news agency his wife was particularly worried about what could happen to his image once he dies. He told PA: 'I think it is a very interesting point, and we ought to have protected ourselves by copyrighting our images, I know my wife is very concerned about that. 'She's going to copyright my image, I won't be there, so I don't really give a…' The rise of AI has seen numerous fake videos appearing to feature well-known celebrities on social media, while other incidents have seen their work digitally recreated. Last year, Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson said she was 'shocked' and 'angered' at how 'eerily similar' one of the voices on AI platform ChatGPT sounded to hers. In response, the platform's operator OpenAI said it will 'pause' the use of one of the voices. Idle said the technology is 'actually not bad' at copying work by old artists such as The Beatles to make a new version, but he felt it could 'only copy' and not create. He added: 'I was with Professor Brian (Cox), the other night, and he asked it to write a Python sketch, and it was shit, completely unfunny. 'It mentioned a few things which obviously it picked up from Python, but it couldn't put them together in a new and funny manner, and I think that's the weakness with AI. 'I think Stephen Fry says you could ask it to do your World War One story, it could tell you how many bullets were used and how many people were killed, and all what happened every day, but it couldn't tell you as much as a Wilfred Owen poem could tell you in one minute or two, or 14 lines. 'I don't think that it makes much difference with a lot of American television because it's just churned out. 'But I think it can't be Robin Williams. I think it can't be Billy Connolly, I think it can't be Spike Milligan, I think it can't be the really creative comedians. 'So I don't think it can come up with that because what they do, they're doing it out of their own personalities.' The comedian will return to the UK in September for a solo tour at venues including London's Royal Albert Hall, Birmingham Symphony Hall and Glasgow's Armadillo. He will pay tribute to late friends George Harrison, Williams and Neil Innes, and perform with a virtual band. He is best known for his appearances in the Monty Python's Flying Circus TV series alongside Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Jones, Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam, and its spin-off films Monty Python And The Holy Grail (1975), Life Of Brian (1979) and The Meaning Of Life (1983). Idle also created Beatles parody band The Rutles with the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band's Innes, which featured in two mockumentaries in All You Need Is Cash (1978) and The Rutles 2: Can't Buy Me Lunch (2003).

Téa Leoni and Tim Daly's Marriage Is Clear Evidence the McCords from 'Madam Secretary' Were the Best TV Couple
NEED TO KNOW Téa Leoni and Tim Daly wed on July 12 after 11 years together The pair first met in 2014 on the set of their CBS show Madam Secretary They played married couple Elizabeth and Henry McCord on the political drama from 2014-2019When Madam Secretary premiered in 2014, I was 14 years old. I'm 25 now, but the running joke remains that I'm actually a 55-year-old woman trapped in the body of a 25-year-old. This should help explain why my all-time favorite TV show as a teenager was a geopolitical drama that aired in the Sunday night 10 p.m. time slot on CBS. (I did grow up to become a journalist, so maybe everything works out just as it's supposed to). My old soul and penchant for history and politics aside, I loved Madam Secretary for myriad reasons. Yes, Téa Leoni's Elizabeth McCord is up there on my Mount Rushmore of TV characters, but the show really stands out in my mind — even more than a decade later — because audiences also got to see inside Elizabeth's personal life. She was the secretary of state, but we got to see her sitting in the principal's office with her son and eating cold leftovers after a long day at the office. We saw her messy closet and her idiosyncrasies (she always ate ice cream with a fork) and best of all, we got to see her marriage. Leoni, 59, met Tim Daly, 69, who played her dashing marine-veteran-turned-religious-scholar husband, on the set of the show. They began dating in real life during the first season, and 11 years later, they made their partnership legal when they wed on July 12. Not to be dramatic, but it's the best news I've ever heard. It's always fun when costars get together in real life (I am an entertainment journalist, after all) but this instance is particularly special, especially if you've seen Madam Secretary. The McCords' marriage was my very first example — on TV or off — of what a successful, healthy marriage could actually look like, and I've taken it to heart. They're the best there is, and I'd be inclined to think newlyweds Leoni and Daly might just agree. First things first — the McCords' marriage isn't perfect, and neither are the characters, but they're perfect for each other, and that, to me, is what it's all about. The characters are whole all on their own — accomplished, multi-dimensional, flawed — but the nuance and depth of their relationship with each other makes for a marriage that you can't help but root for. They're also just really fun. Elizabeth is bold and sassy and a born leader. Henry is calm and cerebral and philosophical. She talks, and he listens. He gets stuck in his head, and she cracks a joke. Henry and Elizabeth have a very yin-yang thing going on, and they still manage to meet in the middle of the Venn diagram where qualities like curiosity and intellectualism and compassion and general good people-ness are concerned. The fictional couple has three children together, and they always present themselves as a united parenting front. One of my all-time favorite lines from Henry is the McCord rule that while life may not be fair, 'in this house it is.' Henry also plays guitar and is a girl dad who quotes Thomas Aquinas and has no problem threatening anyone who so much as looks at his wife the wrong way, which, though she is more than capable of taking care of herself, is an utterly delightful combination. Talk about a true Renaissance man. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. While so much of the show focuses on Elizabeth saving the world in 43 minutes, some of the series' most endearing scenes featured Leoni and Daly goofing around (in one episode, they decide to repaint the kitchen cabinets in their gorgeous D.C. townhome, and they end up throwing paint at each other and devolving into a fit of laughter instead). In fact, more often than not, the characters were laughing. And when they weren't, the foundation of their marriage — support, love, respect — shone. At the end of a particularly tense episode featuring a fight between the two (I told you they weren't perfect!) Henry surprises Elizabeth with a refurbished version of her late father's watch and delivers a line about always making time for her. Swoon. I'm not even doing it justice — you're not allowed to say it's cheesy until you see how beautifully the moment is portrayed on screen. (And Netflix, I'm looking at you, please bring it back!) That man came in strong with words of affirmation, gift-giving and an act of service all in one. You had me at hello, Henry. And what do you know — it's a two way street. After a death on Henry's side of the family leaves him struggling in season 2, Elizabeth drops everything to travel to Pennsylvania with him, where the rest of his, shall we say, rather prickly family resides. She manages to diffuse tensions between Henry and his sister, comfort her own children and show up for her husband with exactly the right words to make him feel better. The episode is heavy on the theme of fathers and sons, and Elizabeth helps Henry work through his guilt and his grief with a beautiful line about how he's going to have to be ready to forgive their teenage son when he inevitably makes a mistake, too. There's this sense of two people deeply understanding each other, and in turn, knowing what the other needs without anyone having to ask. They make the idea of being fully seen by another human being look beautiful, because it is. Henry also gets a shout-out for his unparalleled ability to be what he, early on, calls 'the man beside the woman." He doesn't give up any of his own passions; nor does he resent his powerful wife. When a magazine dubs him the best 'arm candy' in town, he leans in. He's not emasculated, there's no affair on the side, there's no secret loathing, there's no immature handling of arguments or true failures of communication with dire consequences. He's earnestly proud of his wife for being a certified badass. I don't know how else to define "healthy and successful." These two not only love each other but it's obvious they really like each other, too. When I want my fair share of relationship drama and poor decisions, I have Sex and the City reruns (sorry Carrie), but I come back time and time again to Madam Secretary for its portrayal of a marriage that holds my heart in its hands and promises not to break it. It's aspirational without being impossible, and though we don't know the intricacies of Leoni and Daly's 11-year relationship, hear me when I say: The world feels like a better place filled with more love, thanks to those two. Cheers to my favorite couple — onscreen and off. Read the original article on People
