Have you ever gazed out at the sea and felt the world become smaller? Perhaps you have swum in its waters and felt that time stood still, that the noise and chatter of the world faded away to a distant whisper, or you have marveled as the sun slid gently beneath its horizon. Being near natural bodies of water, especially the sea, has proven health benefits. This effect has been dubbed “blue health,” which scientists have offered a number of explanations. Being near water often means we do more physical activity, while natural surroundings also have a restorative effect on our mental wellbeing and social lives, meaning they also have mental health benefits. Furthermore, blue spaces can improve overall environmental quality, which brings indirect health benefits. The biophilia hypothesis explores how the sea is our biological point of origin. It is one of the three main theories that explain humans’ attraction to the body of water. The other two are the theory of psychophysiological stress recovery, and attention restoration theory. These ideas are not mutually exclusive, and all three contribute to the sense of wellbeing that the sea gives us. Be it walking on the sand, in a boat on its surface, diving beneath the waves, or just observing or meditating on it, the sea allows us to set our mental struggles to one side and to feel free. It can help us to find what psychologists call “restoration,” and this sense of wellbeing is something we often struggle to find on our own. Blue health can be a powerful tool in reducing stress and improving our moods. Our connection to nature helps us to put our own worries in perspective–it restores our attention by warding off the preoccupations that dominate our attention in our daily lives. Not only do they bring physical and emotional wellbeing, reconnecting with the sea also allows a person, regardless of their limitations, to experience the freedom and connection that it can offer. The sea belongs to everyone, and we all deserve to feel its immense, transformative power. The ConversationCowboys win wild one vs. Commanders to halt five-game slide

Check out impressive CGPA of young Nigerian boy who bagged first classToby MacDonald has spent the past six years trying to gather all the information she can on what led to multiple asbestos breaches at her daughter's Summerside high school, Three Oaks Senior High, during renovations in 2017. Those renovations were conducted while students were still attending classes. Families were not initially notified. In a recent video posted to social media, MacDonald laid out dozens of pages on the floor, from a response to one of her many freedom of information requests, in an effort to show much information had been redacted — that is, removed from the documents by the P.E.I. government before being released. "All those squares?" she says in the video, referring to white boxes with black outlines, indicating where information has been severed. "That's information that is being withheld from parents." 'What was in that dust?' P.E.I. woman searches for answers about mishandling of asbestos in daughter's school $1,318 fee for TOSH renovation documents 'not reasonably calculated,' says privacy commissioner MacDonald has reached a conclusion after her years-long quest for answers. Calling freedom of information on P.E.I. "our last line of defence for transparency and accountability" in a private message to CBC News, she described the system in one word: "Broken." Skepticism about ability to prompt change On Friday, MLAs on P.E.I.'s standing committee on health and wellness will begin discussions on a review of the province's Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act . Light streams in through restored windows at Province House, the traditional seat of the provincial government on Prince Edward Island, in a photo from November. Freedom of information requirements are referred to as 'sunshine laws' in some jurisdictions. (Julien Lecacheur/CBC) Under law, that review is required to get underway sometime in 2024, meaning the committee is getting started just in time. But one member of the committee already worries the review may not have the scope or depth to lead to whatever changes are required. Back in March, Green MLA Peter Bevan-Baker managed to convince MLAs from all parties to vote in favour of creating a special committee that could devote more time to the task. Analysis The yawning black hole that can be P.E.I.'s access to information system P.E.I. spending millions in hope of hosting NHL Awards, documents show But that idea became snagged on a technicality. While MLAs voted for Bevan-Baker's amendment, the Progressive Conservative government never called back the actual motion he amended for a final vote. That means the province's health committee will be juggling freedom of information matters, among all its other responsibilities. How P.E.I.'s freedom of information system works — and doesn't work 39 minutes ago Duration 2:52 Requests for government information by a Prince Edward Island citizen or media agency can take years to fulfill — especially if the province has redacted so much information that the document doesn't reveal what the applicant wants to know. The privacy commissioner's office says the workload from handling appeals is overwhelming. Can a planned review by MLAs fix anything? "And so we end up with a situation where the busiest committee in the house is now tasked with dealing with a hugely important piece of legislation," Bevan-Baker said Thursday, suggesting the committee will struggle to deal with its mandate covering health care, housing, social development and justice issues while delivering the review. "If you look at what I would call the deterioration of the ability of citizens to get information about their government — which is sort of a fundamental principle of any democratic society — things have really gone downhill," he said of freedom of information in the province. Green MLA Peter Bevan-Baker tried to get a separate committee designated to review the province's Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, but the effort came to nothing because a legislative motion was never called for a final vote. (CBC) How the NHL numbers were obtained As one example, he pointed to the province's contract with the NHL. Tourism Minister Zack Bell tabled a copy of the deal that the Liberals had actually obtained through an access request. In both cases the dollar amounts were redacted. P.E.I.'s health-care system 'backed up and overburdened,' consultant says in report 20 corporations with ties to Irvings own more than 12,000 acres on P.E.I. Another standing committee used its subpoena power to compel Bell to table an unredacted copy of the contract. Without the ability to issue a subpoena, members of the public would have to ask P.E.I.'s privacy commissioner to conduct a review if they felt the government was withholding information it was required by law to release. Those appeals are taking years to complete. MacDonald said she has one underway dating from 2019. Documents released under access to information laws often have large sections redacted, or blacked out, because they are deemed to contain private or sensitive information. (Ivanoh Demers/Radio-Canada) CBC News has 11 reviews in progress with the privacy commissioner's office. The oldest is from a freedom of information request made in 2018. In October, reacting to a question about an ongoing review, the commissioner's office advised CBC News that it is dealing with "an overwhelming number of reviews awaiting deliberation and [an] increasing complexity of issues" in conducting them. P.E.I. government-commissioned report points to benefits of rental registry 10% of complaints against P.E.I. police in years leading up to 2023 substantiated, records show In its annual report for 2023 — released just last week — the privacy commissioner's office said provincial officials told it more than 500 access requests had been filed that year, and nearly one in 10 resulted in a request for a review from the commissioner. Doiron told CBC News last week that her office had recently added a fourth staff member to handle the workload and would soon add a fifth. Office of P.E.I.'s privacy commissioner working to tackle high case volume 8 days ago Duration 7:05 P.E.I.'s Information and Privacy Commissioner says a high caseload is causing delays in making decisions. CBC News: Compass host Louise Martin speaks with Denise Doiron about how her office is trying to get through its files. "The office of the commissioner is under-resourced. Government knows it and uses it to its advantage," Paul MacNeill, publisher of Island Press, told CBC News via email. He said access requests which used to take months now take years. "This is not in the public interest."

Julia Wick | (TNS) Los Angeles Times As California politicos look ahead to 2025, the biggest question looming is whether Vice President Kamala Harris — a native daughter, battered just weeks ago by presidential election defeat — will enter the 2026 California governor’s race. Related Articles National Politics | Trump taps immigration hard-liner Kari Lake as head of Voice of America National Politics | Trump invites China’s Xi to his inauguration even as he threatens massive tariffs on Beijing National Politics | Pressure on a veteran and senator shows what’s next for those who oppose Trump National Politics | What Americans think about Hegseth, Gabbard and key Trump Cabinet picks AP-NORC poll National Politics | Trump is named Time’s Person of the Year and rings the New York Stock Exchange’s opening bell Harris has yet to give any public indication on her thoughts and those close to her suggest the governorship is not immediately top of mind. But if Harris does ultimately run — and that’s a massive if — her entrée would seismically reshape the already crowded race for California’s highest office. Recent polling suggests Harris would have a major advantage, with 46% of likely voters saying they were somewhat or very likely to support her for governor in 2026, according to a UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies survey co-sponsored by The Times. “If Vice President Harris were to choose to run, I am certain that that would have a near field-clearing effect on the Democratic side,” Rep. Katie Porter, D-Irvine, said during a recent UC Irvine panel interview . Porter, a high-profile Democrat who has been eyeing the wide-open governor’s race, has yet to say whether she plans to run. Porter’s point was broadly echoed in conversations with nearly a dozen California political operatives and strategists, several of whom requested anonymity to speak candidly. Most speculated that a Harris entry would cause some other candidates in the race to scatter, creating further upheaval in down-ballot races as a roster of ambitious politicians scramble for other opportunities. “In politics, you always let the big dogs eat first,” quipped Democratic political consultant Peter Ragone. The current gubernatorial field is a who’s who of California politicians, but lacks a clear favorite or star with widespread name recognition. The vast majority of California’s 22 million voters have yet to pay attention to the race and have little familiarity with the candidates. The list of Democratic candidates includes Los Angeles’ first Latino mayor in more than a century ( Antonio Villaraigosa ); the first female and first out LGBTQ leader of the state Senate ( Toni Atkins ); the sitting lieutenant governor and first woman to hold that post ( Eleni Kounalakis ); the state superintendent of public instruction ( Tony Thurmond ) and the former state controller ( Betty Yee ). Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom is serving his second term as California governor, meaning he is ineligible to run again. Several other Democrats, including Porter, outgoing Health and Human Services Director Xavier Becerra and state Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta have also publicly toyed with the idea of a run. They could be less likely to enter the fray should Harris decide to run. What the billionaire mall mogul Rick Caruso — who has also been exploring a run — would choose to do is an open question, as Caruso might contrast himself with Harris as a more centrist candidate. The real estate developer was a registered Republican until November 2019. It’s unlikely that Harris will proffer a public decision in the immediate term, leaving plenty of time for political insiders to game out hypotheticals in the weeks and months to come. Harris’ office did not respond to a request for comment. “I think every candidate for governor is trying to get some kind of intel,” Mike Trujillo, a Los Angeles-based Democratic political consultant and former Villaraigosa staffer, said of a potential Harris run. Trujillo speculated that Harris’ current state was probably similar to Hillary Clinton’s hiking sojourns in the Chappaqua woods after losing to Donald Trump in 2016, or Al Gore growing a beard in the bruising aftermath of his 2000 defeat. “The first thing she’s probably thinking about is, ‘Well, can I run again for president in four years?’ Not, ‘Do I run for governor in two years?’” said one political operative who’s worked with Harris in the past. Harris maintains a home in Brentwood and previously served as California’s senator and attorney general. A successful run for governor in 2026 would almost certainly impede a grab for the presidency in 2028. (Though if history is any guide, an unsuccessful run for California governor does not definitively preclude a bid for the Oval Office: Two years after losing the White House to John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon lost the 1962 contest for governor to Pat Brown . The Yorba Linda native became the nation’s 37th president in 1969.) As the chief executive of a state that doubles as the world’s fifth-largest economy, Harris would have more power to steer policy and make changes as a California governor than she did as vice president, where her job required deference to President Biden. But leading a state, even the nation’s most populous, could feel like small potatoes after being a heartbeat (and a few dozen electoral votes) from the presidency. The protracted slog to November 2026 would also be a stark contrast to her ill-fated 107-day sprint toward the White House, particularly for a candidate whose 2020 presidential primary campaign was dogged by allegations of infighting and mismanagement. “I don’t think Kamala Harris has a deep psychological need to be governor of California, or to be in elective office in order to feel like she can contribute to society,” said the operative who’s worked with Harris in the past. “I think some of these people do, but she’s somebody who has enough prominence that she could do a lot of big, wonderful things without having to worry about balancing California’s budget or negotiating with Assemblyman Jesse Gabriel,” the Encino Democrat who chairs the Assembly’s budget committee. Technically, Harris has until March 2026 to decide whether she enters a race. But political strategists who spoke to The Times theorized that she probably would make a move by late spring, if she chooses to do so. “People will be more annoyed if she drops in in June,” a Democratic strategist involved with one of the gubernatorial campaigns said. Sending a clear signal by February would be more “courteous,” the strategist continued, explaining that such a move would give candidates more time to potentially enter other races. Kounalakis is a longtime friend and ally of Harris’ , and the vice president also has long-term relationships with some of the other candidates and potential candidates. California has eight statewide elected offices and campaign finance laws allow candidates to fundraise interchangeably for them, meaning money already raised for a candidate’s gubernatorial campaign could easily be redirected should they decide to run for, say, lieutenant governor instead. There are already a number of candidates running for lieutenant governor, including former Stockton Mayor Michael Tubbs, former state Sen. Steven Bradford and former state Treasurer Fiona Ma. But that office probably would see even more interest should Harris enter the gubernatorial race. It’s a largely ceremonial position, but one that has served as a launching pad for the governorship. Still, even if Harris does enter the race, Republican political strategist Mike Murphy threw cold water on the idea that she would have an automatic glide path to the governor’s office. “It’s like Hollywood. Nobody knows anything. She’s famous enough to look credible in early polling. That’s all we know for sure,” Murphy said. “Does that predict the future? No. Are there a lot of downsides (to a potential Harris candidacy)? Totally, yes.” ©2024 Los Angeles Times. Visit latimes.com. Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.(Source: Nasdaq) Wall Street’s main indexes were mostly flat on Thursday after recording all-time closing highs in the previous session, with focus on the monthly employment report due on Friday as markets mostly brushed off weekly jobless claims data. The crucial nonfarm payrolls report, scheduled for release before markets open, could be key in gauging the Federal Reserve’s interest rate trajectory. Eric Clark, portfolio manager at the Rational Dynamic Brands Fund, said the market could get a rate cut in December but the Fed might be more cautious going forward. “They have already hinted about being very slow and methodical about cutting interest rates ... at some point the market will probably make that realization and put things that were tied to rate cuts on sale.” U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell appeared to signal support for a slower pace of interest-rate cuts ahead when he spoke on Wednesday, while San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly said there was “no sense of urgency” on reducing borrowing costs further. Comments from Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin are due later in the day. On the day, data showed the number of Americans filing new applications for unemployment benefits increased moderately last week, suggesting that the labor market continued to cool. At 11:32 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI), fell 105.25 points, or 0.23%, to 44,908.79, the S&P 500 (.SPX), lost 1.80 points, or 0.03%, to 6,084.84 and the Nasdaq Composite (.IXIC), gained 17.50 points, or 0.09%, to 19,752.62. Most megacap and growth stocks were mixed. Tesla (TSLA.O), however, outperformed with a 3.5% gain after at least two brokerages lifted their price target on the electric vehicle maker’s stock. The S&P 500 (.SPX), opens new tab, the Nasdaq (.IXIC), and the Dow (.DJI), clocked record closing highs on Wednesday, having rallied greatly this year as investors bought into heavyweight technology stocks in a bid to cash in on the artificial intelligence hype. Another tailwind for stocks recently has been former U.S. President Donald Trump’s win in the Nov. 5 elections. Analysts expect his policies on tax cuts and looser regulation could support corporate performance. Southwest Airlines (LUV.N), gained 3.9% as the carrier raised its forecast for fourth-quarter revenue per available seat miles, while American Airlines (AAL.O), added 15% after lifting its fourth-quarter adjusted earnings forecast. Synopsys (SNPS.O), opens new tab fell 10.7% after the chip design software firm forecast fiscal 2025 revenue below Wall Street expectations, in part due to a slump in China sales. Cryptocurrency and blockchain-related stocks lost steam after surging earlier in the day when bitcoin , the world’s largest cryptocurrency, stormed above the $100,000 mark for the first time. MicroStrategy (MSTR.O), the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, was down 2%, while exchange operator Coinbase (COIN.O), was flat. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 1.18-to-1 ratio on the NYSE and by a 1.4-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 posted 34 new 52-week highs and five new lows, while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 109 new highs and 82 new lows.

The New York Giants , at 2-8, don’t have much to hang their hat on. The defense’s efforts have largely been wasted by an inept offense. Quarterback Tommy DeVito will be the third passer to see the field this season. Things have gone from bad to worse, and the bye week’s changes aren’t guaranteed to make Sunday go any better. New York will return from the break to host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. It will do so as touchdown underdogs, hoping to leave a mark on the NFC playoff picture from the outside. At the very least, the Giants are almost entirely healthy heading into Week 12. © Lucas Boland-USA TODAY Sports The team released the following injury report on Thursday. LIMITED FULL Notably, Thibodeaux was a full participant, an upgrade from his limited status on Wednesday. He was eligible to return from injured reserve and the team opened his practice window as it emerged from the bye. Getting a starter back in a full capacity should be meaningful for a Giants squad that needs all the help it can get. No team has averaged more sacks per game, but the pass rush could take another step forward with Thibodeaux’s return, which now seems inevitable. Related: WATCH: Daniel Jones Says Goodbye Further, Slayton should get the green light for Sunday, too. A concussion forced him to stay home while the team traveled to Munich in Week 10. The rest, along with the bye week, allowed Slayton to return to practice as a full participant. Receiver Jalin Hyatt was encouraging in his absence, potentially pushing for more playing time as the season rolls along. There isn’t yet reason to be concerned about Lawrence nor Nubin, the two defensive starters listed as limited on Thursday. Lawrence has been getting veteran courtesies for much of the season, while Nubin has played virtually every snap as a rookie. Phillips is a name to watch as he was a late addition to the injury report, having not been listed on Wednesday. Still, as a full participant, he’s expected to go against a strong Buccaneers offense. With nobody held entirely out of practice, New York looks to be at full strength on Sunday. That bodes well for a team in desperate need of a win.
