Americans rejoiced when permanent Daylight Saving Time was repealed and Standard Time’s natural morning sunlight was restored—on this weekend in 1974.

Americans over 60 now spend more than half their leisure hours in front of screens, but older adults tend to have no idea what they’re looking at. This susceptibility is creating an entirely new type of responsibility for the adult children of these suddenly very online parents. nymag.visitlink.me/y-LXZY

Video shows the moment a train collided with a crane that had fallen onto railway tracks in Brazil. After being struck by the train, the wreckage of the crane plunged into a street busy with traffic and pedestrians. The crane operator was injured in the incident in Sao Paulo.

So long as Indians believe they have the power to punish their rulers come election day, they will put up with a lot. This is the essence of the country’s social contract. But now there is a sense that it is being violated bit.ly/4hX58Di Illustration: Lehel Kovács

Middle East: Due to tensions in the Middle East, the security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation. Americans currently in the Middle East should exercise heightened vigilance and be aware of potential flight cancellations, airspace closures, and travel disruptions. Iranian-supported Houthis have engaged in hostilities against Saudi Arabia, including civilian airports. This military conflict has the potential to escalate rapidly. Americans outside the Middle East should seriously reconsider travel to and through the region. Those who do travel to or from the region should monitor information about airport and airline operations. U.S. diplomatic facilities, including outside the Middle East, have been targeted. Iran and groups supportive of Iran may target other U.S. interests overseas or at locations associated with the United States and Americans throughout the world, including U.S. businesses and other institutions.

It is permissible in English for a preposition to be what you end a sentence with. The idea that it should be avoided came from writers who were trying to align the language with Latin, but there is no reason to suggest ending a sentence with a preposition is wrong.

JORvsALG - oops, I hadn't realized they were in the FIFA World Cup finals... and we're almost through the group stage

We know you have a lot on your plate, so this is coming from a place of support... Use 'Scot-free' instead of 'Scotch-free.' Use ‘shoo-in’ instead of ‘shoe-in.’ Use ‘piqued my interest’ instead of ‘peaked my interest.’ Use ‘case in point’ instead of ‘case and point.’
