can jump through time, meaning gut feelings are
memories from the future, scientists say. Even
the Central Intelligence Agency has released
data on this psychic phenomena. On an October
night in 1989, a four -year -old girl was shocked
awake by a phone ringing and then a scream. She
overheard her mother say he died in a car accident.
The girl sensed her father's fate during their
final goodbye at the airport. Cognitive neuroscientist
Julia Mossbridge, Doctor of Philosophy, relates
to such experiences and claims that pre -cognition
suggests time may not be as linear as we imagine.

leads to skepticism about these phenomena. In
business news, customers of AT &T Verizon and
T -Mobile should be concerned about the Federal
Communications Commission ruling. In January
2025, the Federal Communications Commission enforced
Section 105 of the Communications Assistance
for Law Enforcement Act to guard against a major
Chinese attack by a group called Salt Typhoon.
The ruling was intended to prompt telecom companies
to enhance security measures, but it has now
been rescinded citing flawed reasoning. Wireless
carrier customers may face heightened vulnerabilities
as companies are no longer required to improve
security. Proponents of the original ruling argue
it was a vital response to ongoing cyber threats.

are always late. Science can explain why. Are
you a multitasker, a free spirit, or an overly
optimistic planner? Experts say these traits
explain why some people are constantly running
behind. If you are one of those people whose

at some point, but chronic lateness can stem
from various psychological tendencies. and biological
differences. Understanding these patterns matters
because punctuality signals respect for others'
time and supports relationships. Improving punctuality
often requires awareness of one's tendencies
and strategies tailored to individual needs.
