Many research studies, as well as anecdotal evidence, have cited situations where music has been able to evoke a response or a memory in people with Alzheimer’s. For example, your mother may have difficulty finding the right words to use but be able to sing an entire song with no problem. Research Suggests Memory for Music Not Affected One research project studied people with Alzheimer’s and found that their memory for music was not affected by the disease: They performed similarly to those without Alzheimer’s in recognizing songs and lyrics....

Try to think of an argument as you and your partner vs. the problem, not you vs. your partner. If you can both tackle issues together, your communication is much less likely to break down. Think of “fair fights” as more of discussions rather than arguments. Someone is bringing up a problem, and now you need to work together to solve it. In fair fights, there are no winners or losers—both of you should feel content with the outcome of your discussion....

Coots was hooked. He started out with a modest 20mg, but before long, he says, he needed 400mg just to make it through the day. And that took money. OxyContin is known as the poor man’s heroin, but at a street price of $1 per milligram it can be anything but cheap. Coots quit his job and spent all his time in pursuit of the precious pills. Each morning began with an orange 40mg tablet, which he downed before getting out of bed....

We can’t just tell kids to go out and play anymore; there aren’t too many safe havens for them. It’s important to talk to children about violent things as they happen, like a kidnapping they’ve heard about on TV, and to emphasize that the probability of its happening to them is very small. Children need a sense that somebody cares enough to protect them. To provide that sense, we must become adults to our kids....

The Patriots opened eyes when they released Cam Newton and handed the keys of the franchise over to 2021 first-round pick Mac Jones just before the start of the NFL season.

In the past several weeks, some people believed that Twitter, one of the biggest social media platforms in the world with up to 400 million users, was headed toward its downfall. That claim was based on the long-lasting conflict that started when Elon Musk — CEO of Tesla and SpaceX and a sometimes world’s richest man — offered to buy out the company last April. After a tumultuous process that involved a few lawsuits and its fair share of controversy, the deal became effective by the end of October, thus making Musk the owner of the company....

The case against the inherent inequity of our criminal legal system makes itself, and the evidence of prejudice and racial injustice is well-documented. Forty percent of the people who are currently incarcerated are Black, despite the fact that Black people only represent 14.6 percent of the U.S. population. At its core, the criminal legal system was created to control freed formerly enslaved people, and it continues to draw from a precedent of terrible injustice by perpetuating policies that disproportionately police Black people, such as the Violent Crime Control Act and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 and predictive policing models built on data corrupted by racial bias....
