It’s long been rumored that blinking slowly at a cat indicates we love them and that they are safe with us. However, they may still engage in positively associated cat behavior — showing off an upward-pointed tail, a face nuzzle, or the infamous slow blink — with us. Need some help with something you’ve been doing wrong?

A federal judge has granted a motion to reopen the sentencing in the case against David DePape, the man convicted of the 2022 attack on House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul, because he did not get a chance to speak during his sentencing hearing Friday. The judge will reopen the sentencing portion of the case on May 28 at 9:30 a.m. Nonetheless, it was the Court’s responsibility to personally ask Mr. DePape if he wanted to speak. “I’ve made the best effort I possibly can to not revisit this,” he said at the time. A state case against DePape that includes charges of attempted murder, burglary and assault is expected to go to trial this summer.

We’ve now raised that to 2.5%, but meantime only two-thirds of Nato countries have got to the 2%.
