Featured Article of the DayMichael Tritter is a fictional character in the medical drama series House, played by David Morse (pictured). The main antagonist of the third season (2006–07), Tritter is a police detective who tries to get Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) to apologize for leaving him with a thermometer in his rectum. After House refuses, Tritter discovers his Vicodin addiction, and forces him to go to rehab. The character was created as somebody who could go "toe-to-toe" with House. Morse, who had never seen the show before, was unsure if he could portray the character. The excited reaction of his friends convinced him to take the role. Initial critical responses were mostly positive, but critics later felt that the six-episode Tritter story arc became boring. Morse, though, was praised for his portrayal and received an Emmy nomination. He stated in a 2006 TV Guide interview that, although he had discussed it with the show's writers, reprising the character would be "practically impossible". (Full article...)

Picture of the DayThe strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is a widely grown hybrid plant cultivated worldwide for its fruit. The genus Fragaria is in the rose family, Rosaceae. Strawberries are appreciated for their aroma, bright red colour, juicy texture, and sweetness. They are eaten either fresh or in prepared foods such as jam, ice cream, and chocolates. Artificial strawberry flavourings and aromas are widely used in commercial products. Botanically, the strawberry is not a berry, but an example of an aggregate fruit and an accessory fruit. Each apparent "seed" on the outside of a strawberry is actually an achene, a botanical fruit with a seed inside it. The garden strawberry was first bred in Brittany, France, in the 1750s via a cross of F. virginiana, from eastern North America, and F. chiloensis, which was brought from Chile by Amédée-François Frézier in 1714. Cultivars of F. × ananassa have replaced the woodland strawberry F. vesca in commercial production. In 2023, world production of strawberries exceeded ten million tons, led by China, with 40 percent of the total. These focus-stacked photographs show two garden strawberries, one whole and one halved, that were grown in Spain.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
