The NGO Open Arms rescued 374 people in the Mediterranean in just four days last week. It is the second mission the organization has undertaken in the central Mediterranean this year, after rescuing 9 more people in January, in an operation where their ship was anchored and without permits to sail for 20 days. Open Arms' spokesperson in Italy, Valentina Brinis, explains that in this mission, the 111th, they rescued "many families and children". The youngest were two babies: one a month old and the other twelve weeks old.

We've all heard it before: a poison rises in your gut, your pulse quickens, your jaw tightens, and it feels as if you're about to explode like a pressure cooker. Since time immemorial, humans have strived to find ways—more or less successful—to channel anger: counting to ten before speaking, punching a pillow, yelling into the wind (or at the unfortunate person in front of us)... But, according to a study published in the journal Nature, the solution could be found in a practice as simple as it is ancient: write the thought that has angered us on a piece of paper, tear it up and throw it away.
