Facts can be so misleading. Near the midway point of the NFL regular season, the Bills (5-2) — the five-time defending AFC East champions — are looking up in the standings at the Patriots (6-2), who won a head-to-head matchup in Buffalo. The Chiefs (5-3) — winners of nine straight AFC West titles — are behind the Broncos (6-2) and Chargers (5-3), having lost to the latter in Week 1. Meanwhile, Daniel Jones and the Colts (7-1) lead the race for the No. 1 seed. Still, it is hard to find anyone who doesn’t believe a trip to the Super…

Samhain is upon us, and with it the summons to face the dark with fortitude. The word Samhain translates to “summer’s end,” and as practicing witch Dacha Avelin richly describes, “It is the threshold to the season of Death.” Apropos of this, Samhain coincides with the sun’s journey through Scorpio, itself a threshold sign that rules the eighth house of sex, death and regeneration. Sitting square between the autumn equinox and the winter solstice, Samhain is observed as one of four annual “fire festivals.” The word Samhain translates to “summer’s end,” and as practicing witch Dacha Avelin richly describes, “It is the threshold to the season of Death.” jetrel2 – stock.adobe.com Samhain is…

SPRING LAKE, NJ — Maybe the third time is the charm. New Jersey gubernatorial hopeful Jack Ciattarelli exuded confidence that his third campaign for governor is the one to propel him to Drumthwacket and downplayed concerns about President Trump’s impact on his prospects in an exclusive interview with The Post. “It’s not really lessons as much as it is the landscape is very different,” Ciattarelli reflected, when asked about what he learned from his 2021 bid in which he came within about 3 percentage points of Gov. Phil Murphy (D). “We’re winning this race,” Ciattarelli told The Post. AP Ciattarelli…

Leslie Jones was left fuming when an “a–hole” director she clashed with on the “SNL” set wanted to take a picture with her during the popular sketch show’s 50th anniversary celebration. Jones, who starred on the NBC staple from 2014 to 2019, was a host for the “SNL 50 special” red carpet in February 2024 when he ran into the director. “First of all, I don’t like him,” Jones said on Vulture’s “Good One Podcast” that was released Thursday. “He comes over to me, and you know I don’t like him. ‘Oh Leslie, that’s just what happened. Shut up, yous…

As a psychologist interested in challenges throughout the life cycle, I have had the pleasure of working with those just beginning their life journey and those at the end. Not surprisingly, many people tend to have regrets at the end of their life. After all, it is difficult to say goodbye with goals left incomplete and dreams unfulfilled. The most regrets, according to end-of-life interviews, tend to be related to the things not done versus things that were done in life, even if the latter did not work out. Armed with this knowledge, I work with my younger adult patients…

It’s Halloween again, but this year the night feels different. October 31, 2025 doesn’t just belong to ghosts and ghouls. It also marks forty years since the publication of Anne Rice’s The Vampire Lestat, the book that turned one vampire’s confession into an operatic declaration of life, death, and everything in between. First published on October 31, 1985 (because of course it was), The Vampire Lestat wasn’t just a sequel. It was an act of resurrection. In its pages, Lestat de Lioncourt seized the microphone and rewrote his own legend. Interview with the Vampire gave us the heart — the…

Federal authorities said Thursday at least 46 undocumented workers were arrested during a sweeping Department of Homeland Security (DHS) operation at a freight warehouse in Avenel, New Jersey, Wednesday. Law enforcement personnel carried out the inspection at a federally authorized container freight station as part of an ongoing campaign to ensure compliance with immigration regulations. At the warehouse, agents discovered 46 undocumented laborers, roughly 22% of the onsite workforce, officials said.  All 46 suspected illegal aliens were escorted into federal custody, where they now await immigration proceedings, according to the DHS. Surveillance footage captured the tense moments as federal officers escorted groups of workers into what appeared to be…

Mike McDaniel’s “irate” sideline outburst said it all. His Dolphins are going nowhere but down this season. Miami was trounced on Thursday night, 28-6, by the Ravens at home as they fell to 2-7 on the season, well out of playoff range. The Dolphins, though, had a chance to take a lead early in the game when they decided to go for it on a fourth-and-1 situation from the Ravens’ 12-yard line as they trailed 7-3. Tackle Larry Broom, though, was called for a false start to push Miami back five yards. In a moment of pure frustration, McDaniel ripped…
