Permanent daylight saving time would keep clocks from changing twice each year, but it would also move one hour of morning daylight into the evening. Morning sunlight is among the most powerful biological signals we have for anchoring the body clock, while evening light does not provide the same biological benefit. That shift can disrupt circadian rhythms that regulate mood and sleep, undermining the very public health goal of reducing harm from clock changes.

Poetry therapy is often used nowadays in mental health settings for healing and growth. Patients read and write poetry to find new ways of being mindful or relaxed. Poetry can point to the work they can do on themselves. Poetry can open them to new ways of coping. A poem can lead safely into realms of the unconscious that might be frightening ordinarily. Poems open the imagination to see alternatives to the status quo or to chronic suffering. In fact, every poem takes us into a parallel universe.

Officers who conducted a welfare check at the home of Caleb Vazquez wrote that he was "involved in suspicious behavior idolizing nazis and mass shooters," and obtained a court order on Jan. 29, 2025, to remove 26 guns under a 2014 California law allowing the confiscation of firearms from people considered dangerous.

Milwaukee trio Snag's 2023 split with Coma Regalia was a screamo release we loved that year, and they've now signed to Deathwish and announced a new album, All The Cages Holding Us Will One Day Turn to Dust, due out July 10. They worked on it with engineer Nick Elert, and guitarist and vocalist Samm Szymborski says, "Musically, the album is punishing at moments; fast and heavy but also soft and beautiful. We wanted to write something that spans all things musically that we are interested in. We wanted to write an album that goes straight to the point and represents Snag as a whole."

Exarchopoulos has her moments in this film from Jeanne Herry, in which she plays an actor struggling with a drinking problem. The scenes in which we see her up on stage, boisterously performing in a touring theatre for schoolkids, are genuinely great. But really this is a very glib and unsatisfying drama, whose essential naivety becomes apparent when the lead character is forced to confront the crisis in her life.

Speaking to Ciara Kelly on The Hard Shoulder on Newstalk, Sligo-born Fleming (55) said "small cracks started to appear" in the marriage, mainly for him, and they were "never mended". The folk and traditional singer revealed publicly for the first time that he is gay, and said that he had been "living a lie", but is now living his "truth". "And with every crack that appeared, there was a new crack and a new crack, and those cracks became a chasm," he said.

Friendship saved my life. And I mean that literally. What has made Love's story so impactful in the sports world is that it disrupted a common myth about athletes: that success, visibility, and constant contact with other people are enough to protect someone from loneliness. Love describes a much more complicated reality.
