The trailer for the comedy film White Chicks uses various film techniques to introduce the plot and characters. It begins by establishing the two main characters as FBI agents who are given an undercover assignment to pose as wealthy white socialites. Various shots are used to highlight their transformation into the titular "white chicks" and the comedic discomfort that ensues from two black men passing as white women. The trailer effectively teases the fish-out-of-water story and struggle for the characters to settle into their new roles through dialogue, costumes, and their reactions. It concludes by identifying the film's director and genre to set audience expectations of a comedic take on gender bending and racial identity.Boom Pranot Twelfth night

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spots—systemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AI—that could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.Rass MELAI : an Internet MELA Quiz Prelims - El Dorado 2025
