Sports leagues need rules to keep competition fair. Most major leagues in the US already have rules about how much teams can spend on players. Baseball stands out because it has no such limit. Players earn widely different amounts, which sometimes makes games feel uneven. A few years ago, a few team
The planet’s natural radio chatter, known as the Schumann Resonance, rings at about 7. 83 cycles per second. This beat comes from lightning storms that flash between the ground and a high‑altitude layer of air called the ionosphere. Some researchers say that this planetary hum matches the rhythm of
Everyday plastics contain hidden chemicals that might quietly harm male health over time. A growing body of research now links one of these chemicals, DEHP, to lower testosterone levels in adult men. Unlike quick health scares, this issue unfolds slowly, making it harder to spot the connection betwe
Delaware is getting ready to spend $196 million more than last year to improve education and healthcare. Lawmakers met recently to finalize the budget before the June deadline. Most of this money will go toward schools and childcare, but experts say the plan still has gaps. Childcare workers will s
Over 100 young minds from 28 schools across Staten Island gathered recently at Borough President’s Hall of Science for an event that proves innovation isn’t just for adults.

The idea of a group of specialists reviewing cancer data is not new, but how it actually helps patients with ovarian cancer has been unclear. In a recent study, researchers looked at real‑world outcomes for two types of serous ovarian cancer: the aggressive high‑grade form and the slower low‑grade v
The Indiana Fever seem stuck in a strange spot. On paper, they have all the ingredients for a championship squad: a star like Caitlin Clark, a dominant big like Aliyah Boston, and a sharp shooter in Kelsey Mitchell. Yet after eight games, they’re barely holding their own. A WNBA analyst recently arg
Scientists have developed a quicker way to measure tiny molecules in our blood that might affect heart disease and metabolism. These molecules come from gut bacteria and our own cells, and they could reveal new clues about health issues like diabetes or heart problems. The old testing methods only c
Solar energy can turn water into clean drinking supply, but the usual methods need a lot of power and sometimes pollute more. Scientists are now exploring tiny, water‑absorbing gels that soak up the sun and heat the water directly. These materials are called solar‑driven hydrogels or SDHs. They are
In early 2026, data shows that Americans’ favorability toward Meghan Markle has slipped, and visits to her online shop, As Ever, have followed suit. The Duchess of Sussex launched the e‑store in 2025 after her Netflix series “With Love, Meghan” premiered, offering items such as jam, honey and wine.
