Forty-six percent of Americans say they get less alone time during the holidays, according to a new survey commissioned by The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and College of Medicine, released on Tuesday. To figure out whether alone time energizes or depletes you, Durvasula suggests dedicating a full day or weekend to just yourself and observing how it affects your emotions. To unwind while alone, Lazarus suggests activities including journaling, meditating, exercising and listening to music to help replenish yourself and be more present when reconnecting with others. In fact, 36% of people say they are more irritable because they don’t get enough alone time, the survey found. “We often don’t get to turn down the volume on that constant state of social monitoring and social calibration,” Durvasula said.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — The former Illinois sheriff’s deputy charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Sonya Massey could soon be set free, following an appellate court ruling that cleared the way for his pre-trial release. At a hearing Monday, a circuit court judge said he will on Friday determine the restrictions for Sean Grayson’s release. Courtesy Ruby Funeral ServicesCadagin said he would comply with the court order and determine “the least restrictive conditions” for Grayson’s release.

☆ Norway hits pause on controversial deep-sea mining plans

Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store gives a speech during the Autumn 2024 conference of Equinor, a Norwegian multinational energy company, in Oslo, Norway on November 26, 2024. Norway has shelved plans to open a vast ocean area at the bottom of the Arctic for commercial-scale deep-sea mining. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre described the move as a "postponement," Reuters reported Sunday, citing comments delivered to private broadcaster TV2. Støre leads Norway's center-left Labor Party, which is the senior party in a minority government coalition with the Center Party. The practice of deep-sea mining involves using heavy machinery to remove minerals and metals — such as cobalt, nickel, copper and manganese — from the seabed, where they build up as potato-sized nodules.

Faryar Shirzad, chief policy officer at Coinbase, told CNBC he sees crypto legislation making its way through Congress "fairly quickly" after the Republican president-elect — who ran on a notoriously pro-crypto policy platform — enters the White House. "I think the combination should finally allow the 50 million Americans who own crypto to have their interests and voice heard in policy." Shirzad told CNBC he's "optimistic" the legislation will get passed, but noted there's only a "small" chance the crypto legislation is considered in the so-called "lame duck" post-election period. Crypto's lobbying powerTrump's election win marked a major victory for the crypto industry — but it also highlighted the power of the crypto lobbying machine. Meanwhile, the Coinbase-backed Stand With Crypto Alliance developed a grading system to determine how for or against crypto House and Senate candidates were.

CNN —House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is facing his first big leadership test in the new Trump era as congressional Democrats push for a shakeup in their party’s approach to countering the incoming president. A number of Democrats who were once willing to wait their turn on the leadership ladder have suddenly lost their patience. Two other Democrats are vying to replace Rep. David Scott, who is 79, at the House Agriculture Committee. Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips, whose longshot primary challenge to Biden quickly failed, praised his colleagues for taking on committee leadership. Throughout the impeachment investigation, Jeffries appeared to defer to committee Democrats at every turn and only got involved when needed.

CNN —President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son has left some Democrats fuming over his choice to repeatedly and unequivocally claim that he would never take that step, even though a pardon long appeared possible to Hunter Biden’s legal team. That comes despite the White House saying that a final decision on the pardon was reached only this weekend. Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said as recently as November 7 that a pardon for Hunter Biden was not being considered. Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son presented a delicate balancing act for the president, who has long been fiercely loyal to his family, even when it comes at his own personal or political detriment. People close to the president’s son said they didn’t want him to have to undergo sentencing.

On the day President Biden’s career in national politics began in 1973, he walked up to a lectern set up in a Delaware hospital room while holding his 3-year-old son, Hunter, in his arms. Biden was there to take the oath to become a senator, a ceremony held at the hospital so his sons could be there. And, he suggested, if there was ever a “conflict between my being a good father and being a good senator,” he would step aside. It was an extraordinary move that came after he and his press secretary repeatedly insisted he would not pardon his son. It seemed to upend Biden’s attempts to portray himself as an institutionalist.

The effort is part of the mayor's "City of Yes" housing plan, designed to boost the supply of homes. More than a dozen states across the country have legalized ADUs in recent years, and New York State greenlit the secondary units in 2022, although New York City has restricted them. Last year, New York City rolled out a pilot program that awarded 15 homeowners with up to nearly $400,000 in funding per household to build an extra dwelling in their backyard, basement, or attic. Another Republican council member opposed to City of Yes derided ADUs as backyard "treehouses" that would depress home values.

☆ Sex workers in Belgium now have maternity leave and sick pay in world first for employment rights

London CNN —Sex workers in Belgium are now entitled to formal employment contracts, which include sick pay and maternity leave, under a landmark law that went into effect Sunday. The new law requires the employers of sex workers to obtain a license from the government, Deltour told CNN. These laws made it “impossible to perform the job in a normal and safe way,” according to the Belgian Union of Sex Workers. That was a crucial step in protecting sex workers from violence, for example, but didn’t give them access to social security. “Sex workers deserve the same rights and freedoms as all workers, and this law is a world first moving us in that direction.”The new law, however, doesn’t cover all types of sex workers.
