The peer tweeted: “No country on Earth would be expected to tolerate these incessant attacks on innocent civilians – by an organisation committed to their total eradication. Why should Israel?” His tweet came after the Prime Minister sent his own, more neutral, message. “I am urging Israel and the Palestinians to step back from the brink and for both sides to show restraint,” he said. “The UK is deeply concerned by the growing violence and civilian casualties, and we want to see an urgent de-escalation of tensions.”

Florida’s 6-1-2 start through nine games is the second-best in franchise history, topped only by the 6-0-3 record to open the 1996-97 season. “We've been consistent in most games," Florida coach Joel Quenneville said. Starting poorly, however, has pretty much snuffed out some Panthers seasons before they even started. The five Florida teams that went to the playoffs — 1995-96, 1996-97, 1999-2000, 2011-12 and 2015-16 — averaged 12 standings points through the season’s first nine games. There’s obviously a long way to go, but the Panthers finally have the start they wanted.

ROANOKE, Va. – The great thing about winter approaching is that colder air is no longer just at airplane level. That means ice crystals can form in clouds at many levels.

And this year Punxsutawney Phil declared: "Spring will be early, it's a certainty." Legend has it that if the creature casts a shadow on Feb. 2, winter will continue for six more weeks. From 2015 through 2019, he has predicted six more weeks of winter thrice and an early spring twice. Elsewhere, in New York City, Staten Island Chuck also predicted an early spring. The critter who resides at Staten Island Zoo groundhog also did not see his shadow.

As we get closer to the first day of winter each year, the sun’s direct rays inch closer to the Tropic of Capricorn (in the southern hemisphere). This means that the Arctic Circle has been tilted away from the sun over the past two months. Now that the sun’s rays are getting closer to the Equator, the Arctic Circle isn’t tilted as far from the sun. This allows them to see their first official sunrise since November 18, 2019. Daylight hours - 1/23/2020 to 4/1/2020In the coming weeks and months, this will increase (as it does every year).
