New York’s sick prisoners have been granted parole but remain behind bars

When the letter arrived in Westil Gonzalez's prison cell saying he had been granted parole, he couldn't read it. Over the 33 years he had been locked up for murder, multiple sclerosis had taken away much of his sight and left him wheelchair-dependent.He had a clear idea of ​​what he would do once he was freed. “I want to give my testimony to a couple of young people who are out there, collecting guns,” Mr. Gonzalez, 57, said in a recent interview. “I want to save one person from what I went through.”But six months have passed and Mr. Gonzalez is still incarcerated outside Buffalo because the Department of Corrections has not found a halfway house that will accept him. Another New York inmate has been in the same limbo for 20 months. Others were released only after suing the state.America's...

Trump is said to be considering an executive order to bypass the TikTok ban

President-elect Donald J. Trump is considering an executive order to allow TikTok to continue operating despite a pending legal ban until new owners are found, according to a person familiar with the matter.The possible executive order, previously reported by the Washington Post, is under discussion as TikTok expires on Sunday to be banned in the United States unless it finds a new owner.

Hamas after ceasefire: weakened but still the dominant Palestinian power in Gaza

Israel's military campaign in Gaza has dealt devastating blows to Hamas: It has killed top Hamas leaders and thousands of militants, pummeled the militant group's tunnel network, and undermined its ability to threaten Israel with rocket fire .When Hamas launched its attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, it hoped to trigger a regional war that would draw in its allies and lead to Israel's destruction. Instead, he was left to fight Israel almost entirely alone. Its allies have been decimated in Lebanon, overthrown in Syria and weakened in Iran. The Houthis in Yemen have only managed to launch occasional rocket and drone attacks, most of which Israel has intercepted.Despite its isolation, however, Hamas remains the dominant Palestinian power in Gaza even after 15 months of Israeli bombardment,...

Howard Buten, autism therapist, novelist and clown, has died at 74

Howard Buten, a college dropout from Detroit, juggled three extraordinary lives.In one, he was a cuddly, clumsy, speechless red-nosed clown named Buffo. It sold out in theaters around the world. Critics have compared him to Charlie Chaplin and Harpo Marx.In another, he volunteered as an assistant with autistic children, went back to school to earn a doctorate in psychology, helped create a pioneering therapy for autism and opened a treatment center.He has made a third life as a novelist. "Burt," written in the voice of a disturbed 8-year-old, failed in the United States but achieved, improbably, "Catcher in the Rye" status in France, where it sold nearly a million copies and has become, to his amusement, and slight chagrin: a cultural sensation.“Howard Buten is a kind of walking poem,” wro...

What we know about the proposed ceasefire agreement in Gaza

After more than 15 months of nearly non-stop fighting in Gaza, diplomats trying to broker a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas expressed cautious hope Tuesday that a deal may finally be within reach.But that optimism has been tempered by uncertainty over whether both sides would ultimately agree, what details might still change and the experience of past months in which ceasefire talks have repeatedly failed.“We believe we are in the final stages, but until we have an announcement, there will be no announcement,” Majed al-Ansari, spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of one of the mediating countries, Qatar, told reporters on Tuesday.Here's what we know about the potential ceasefire agreement.What is the status of the talks?US Secretary of State Antony J.

Moderate alcohol consumption increases health risks while offering few benefits

Among both men and women, drinking just one alcoholic drink a day increases the risk of liver cirrhosis, esophageal cancer, oral cancer and various types of injuries, according to a federal analysis released Tuesday.Women are at greater risk of developing liver cancer even with this modest level of alcohol consumption. Drinking two drinks a day — double the U.S. Dietary Guidelines recommendation for women but the amount currently condoned for men — increases the odds of alcohol-related death for both men and women.The report, prepared by a scientific review panel under the auspices of the Department of Health and Human Services, is one of two competing assessments that will be used this year to shape the influential U.S. dietary guidelines.For years now, some scientists have worried that t...
