Vice President Kamala Harris listens as U.S. President Joe Biden speaks during a Women’s History Month reception in the East Room of the White House on March 18, in Washington, DC. Anna Moneymaker/Getty ImagesIn a fundraising appeal ahead of her remarks on abortion in Arizona, Vice President Kamala Harris said she is “horrified” following a state Supreme Court ruling reverting the state to a Civil War-era abortion ban. She issued a stark warning on the threat a second Trump term would pose to abortion rights nationwide. “Donald Trump and GOP lawmakers are rolling back the clock to 1864 —before Arizona was a state, before the Civil War ended, and decades before women could even vote — but they won’t stop here,” Harris warns in the email to supporters. In her speech Friday, Harris is expected to lay the blame around abortion bans like Arizona’s squarely at the feet of former President Donald Trump, who’s taken credit for appointing the justices responsible for overturning Roe v. Wade to the Supreme Court.

Today "is a day we've long awaited," attorney Malik Shabazz said after six White former Mississippi officers were sentenced in state court for torturing and abusing his clients Eddie Parker and Michael Jenkins. The court has "given out justice," Shabazz said. In departing from the initial recommendations of "low" prison sentences for the squad, the judge "set a new standard here in Rankin County, that police brutality will not be tolerated in Rankin County," Shabazz said. Jenkins also reacted to the sentencing, telling reporters that it's been "a long time coming."

Coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic, young workers were embracing "quiet quitting," or the act of doing your work, but not going above and beyond. Unlike millennials, Gen Z didn't want to "lean in." The idea of quiet quitting isn't all-together unhelpful, though, Cal Newport, author of "Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout" told Dan Harris on a recent episode of the podcast "Ten Percent Happier." "Quiet quitting seasonally — that you might get away with," Newport says. "People might not notice in July you weren't really locked in because in August you're back into it again."

Almost one-third, 30%, of Americans say they have experienced feelings of loneliness once a week during the last year, according to a January 2024 poll by the American Psychiatric Association. In a recent conversation, professor and researcher Brené Brown and Belgium American psychotherapist Esther Perel identified a possible culprit for these feelings of isolation: social media. "When I went off social media for a year, it was one of the best things that ever happened to me," says Brown, who hosts the podcast "Unlocking Us." Being off Instagram and Twitter made her better able to invest in real life conversations. "If we believe that time and energy and focus are finite, when you live in that world online something is going to give in your real life," Brown says.

Strange animal behaviors have been observed at the Fort Worth Zoo during totality, according to researchers stationed in Texas. One of the most bizarre animal observations reported during the 2017 total solar eclipse was of giraffes at other facilities gathering in a herd and beginning to gallop. The giraffes did not gallop this year at the Fort Worth Zoo, but they did huddle together and attempt to enter their nighttime enclosures. The most “dramatic reaction” at Fort Worth Zoo came from the primates. “Right at totality, all of the (gorillas) got up from all quarters of the exhibit and walked directly to where they're supposed to be let in (at night),” Hartstone-Rose told CNN.

CNN —It could take weeks for the Port of Baltimore to reopen as an arduous cleanup process to clear the massive wreckage from this week’s catastrophic bridge collapse begins, leaving commuters and workers in limbo and supply chains in disarray, officials said. More than 1,000 engineers in Baltimore and across the country are studying the wreckage piece-by-piece to figure out the best plan to remove it. To help with this massive task, more heavy equipment is expected at the scene in the coming weeks. The port is the largest in the US for cars and light trucks, handling a record 850,000 vehicles last year, Moore said. “Our economy depends on the Port of Baltimore and the Port of Baltimore depends on vessel traffic,” Moore said Friday.

Americans between ages 45 and 65 are lonelier than their European counterparts, according to a new paper published in American Psychologist. In all places, baby boomers reported the highest levels of loneliness of any generation, but those in the United States outpaced their peers. In Italy, Spain, and Greece, loneliness steeply increased for both baby boomers and Gen X residents. Middle-aged adults in Denmark, Sweden, and the Netherlands reported the lowest levels of loneliness of all 14 countries. "Our epidemic of loneliness and isolation has been an underappreciated public health crisis that has harmed individual and societal health," Murthy said in a 2023 statement.

After a frustrating day at work or fight with your significant other, calling a friend to complain might seem like a good idea. Venting won't help you manage your anger, though, according to a recent paper published in Clinical Psychology Review. Researchers studied how effective arousal-increasing activities, like venting or running, and arousal-decreasing activities, like meditation or yoga, are at calming a person down. They analyzed 154 studies involving more than 10,000 participants and found that arousal-decreasing activities were better at helping a person manage their anger. Next time you want to unload your problems on a friend, take a beat and consider meditating instead.

If you've struggled to find a mentor, you might be asking the wrong person, says Thema Bryant, the president of the American Psychological Association. "A mistake people often make is they look at the highest person in a field and they want that person to be their mentor," she says. "That person is not going to have as much time to pour into you as someone who is maybe mid-level."

As November's general election creeps closer, it's likely that more political discourse will seep into your social gatherings. For many Americans, these discussions can be uncomfortable, especially if their political leanings differ from those of their friends. In 2020, almost one-fourth, 22%, of registered voters said they have friends who support a presidential candidate they do not, according to data from Pew Research Center. There are a few ways to handle unwanted political talk, says Matt Abrahams, a Stanford University lecturer and communications expert. The key to seamlessly navigating political discourse when you don't want to discuss your views is to "signal understanding, but not necessarily agreement," he says.

The uptick in interest makes sense: in recent years everyone from CEOs to therapists have touted the benefits of having high emotional intelligence or EQ. One way to figure out whether or not you have high emotional intelligence is to think about the last few conversations you've had. "Anything you say that demonstrates empathy and listening, I believe, signals higher emotional intelligence," says Matt Abrahams, a Stanford University lecturer and communication expert.

But some states have “open primaries,” meaning any registered voter can vote in either the Democratic or Republican primary. Other states have “closed primaries,” meaning only people registered in a particular political party – usually Republicans or Democrats – can vote in that party’s primary. If multiple candidates win in party primaries in different states, how is the ultimate presidential candidate determined? Delegates can either be apportioned through a winner-take-all system, meaning the top candidate in a state’s primary gets all of that state’s delegates, or they can be apportioned proportionally to the primary election results. Republican rules this year generally require that states with primaries and caucuses before March 15 apportion delegates proportionally.

In their quest to discover what makes love last, clinical psychologists and researchers John and Julie Gottman interviewed more than 3,000 couples and followed some for as long as 20 years. One commonality most successful couples had, the Gottmans found, was their ability to do "repairs." "The couples who really were successful a few years down the road were the ones who made repairs," Julie Gottman told Perel. Positive interactions included a smile, touching the other person's hand, or simply saying "I understand." Negative interactions were insulting or blaming the other person.
