Quick Glance: Michael Douglas defends farting as Benjamin Franklin
  • Michael Douglas expresses no remorse for his portrayal of flatulence as a founding father.

  • In an interview with Sirius XM's The Jess Cagle Show, the Wall Street actor defended the scene in his Apple TV+ series Franklin where his Benjamin Franklin repeatedly breaks wind. Douglas delved into a book about Franklin and used 'Fart Proudly' to counter critics.

Quick Glance: Experience Weather Changes During the Total Solar Eclipse
  • On Monday, April 8, a total solar eclipse will alter weather conditions on the Earth’s surface as it unfolds in the sky.

  • The eclipse will impact temperatures, wind speeds, and humidity as the moon obscures the sun. Increased shading leads to more significant weather changes.

  • The eclipse will also affect humidity levels, influencing temperature drops during the event. Cooling effects during the eclipse impact wind speeds and cloud formation.

  • Monday’s eclipse is the only chance to witness a total solar eclipse from the Lower 48 states. The next opportunity won't occur until August 12, 2045.
