Studies are telling us that the “adverse event” of hot flashes—especially if they are intense and occur often—predicts greater survival in people being treated with hormonal therapies for breast cancer such as tamoxifen or the aromatase inhibitor exemestane. And for those who haven’t experienced breast cancer but are coping with hot flashes, these moments of flushing (or drenching) may be a positive sign as well.

With Kevin McCarthy finally elected speaker of the House after 15 contentious rounds of voting, Republicans in the House of Representatives are at last beginning to forward new proposals. The first one out of the gate is a budgetary bill set to hit the House floor Monday night, aiming to cut $71 billion in federal funding for the IRS over the next decade, according to The Hill.

In Star Trek: Picard, the Federation is faced with external and internal pressures different than the martial conflicts of its past. Still recovering from the Dominion War of the 2370s, the Federation was faced with a new crisis in 2385, when the Romulan sun approached supernova, endangering the Romulan Star Empire and creating a refugee crisis the Federation was barely able to handle. After an attack on the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards on Mars—apparently conducted by artificially intelligent “Synthetics,” though Picard gives us plenty of reason for doubt—the Federation’s Starfleet cut off their ongoing rescue operations and retrenched....

Every February 2, people gather at Gobbler’s Knob in Punxsutawney, located about 86 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, to see if Phil will predict six more weeks of winter or an early spring. It’s a tradition that’s more than 130 years old, but staking travel plans or hopes on Phil’s predictions is not wise.

So the Brady bill was not a fluke after all. With the assault-weapons ban, the tectonic plates of American politics shifted. Whether the shift is slight or profound isn’t clear yet, but something significant happened last week in the House of Representatives.
