Wastewater tests in the upscale Massachusetts resort town of Nantucket have revealed surprisingly high levels of cocaine—reportedly up to three times the national average. Town officials began the testing program last summer to track high‑risk substances and opioids within the community.

Getting Arrested & Court Dates

Stop-Start Engines

Mental Health Labels 

Scientists Create A Plant 

A Colorado man with an active arrest warrant was taken into custody after applying to the Commerce City Police Department and requesting a ride‑along. Police say a background check revealed a lengthy criminal history and outstanding warrant, turning what was meant to be a job inquiry into an unexpected arrest at the station. 

Drivers frustrated by automatic stop‑start engines may soon get relief as the Trump administration moves to roll back federal incentives for the fuel‑saving feature. According to The Wall Street Journal, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has targeted stop‑start technology — widely disliked by drivers despite its emissions benefits — framing the change as a shift toward consumer choice and away from Obama‑era climate regulations. 

Rising autism and ADHD diagnoses have sparked debate over whether society is finally recognizing long‑missed conditions — or overusing mental‑health labels. This story explores what’s driving the surge, how social awareness and clinical standards have changed, and why the question isn’t just how many diagnoses there are, but who they help and how support is delivered. 

Scientists have engineered a plant capable of producing compounds found in ayahuasca, psychedelic mushrooms, and toad‑derived psychedelics all at once — a development that’s turning heads in both science and ethics circles. The research highlights how advances in synthetic biology are blurring the line between plants and complex psychoactive chemistry, raising questions about regulation, medical research, and how far biotechnology should go when recreating substances traditionally produced in very different organisms.

This Day In History: Unabomber Arrested 

On this day in history, Americans remember the 1996 arrest of the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, at his remote cabin in Montana.  The capture ended a nearly 18‑year nationwide manhunt after a handwritten manifesto — recognized by his brother — led federal investigators to one of the most notorious domestic terror cases in U.S. history.

Artemis II Crew: The Journey And What's Ahead

The Artemis II astronauts shared a breathtaking perspective of Earth during an interview with ABC News, describing views of the entire globe stretching from pole to pole as they journey toward the moon. Speaking from inside the Orion spacecraft, the crew reflected on the awe of spaceflight, early mission challenges, and the unifying sight of Earth as they continue humanity’s first crewed lunar mission in more than 50 years.
