For all the time we spend inside buildings, we rarely stop to consider: How do these spaces affect our mental and physical well-being? Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors? Our productivity, performance, and relationships? And yet, in many ways, the indoor world remains unexplored territory. ![]() We spend 90 percent of our time inside, shuttling between homes and offices, schools and stores, restaurants and gyms.

The fact that there are fewer African Americans who have gotten the vaccine can also reflect barriers to vaccine access, of which there are quite a few, including health care policies. And I submit that there may not be any here. Commensurate with their percentage of the population, there was no widespread hesitancy. African Americans are only 12.3 percent of the American population, so they were showing up in a very respectable rate.

In it, Elijah Wood returns as Frodo to chat with old Bilbo (Ian Holm) about the elder Hobbit’s upcoming 111th birthday party - the one that Gandalf arrives for at the beginning of Fellowship. The Hobbit takes place 60 years before the Lord of the Rings adventure, save for the new film’s prologue, which unfolds about twenty minutes before The Fellowship of the Ring begins.
