A-List Actor Says He'll Step Away From the Spotlight in 2027originally appeared onParade. Tom Hollandhas plans to take a well-deserved break from the spotlight in 2027. The 29-year-oldSpider-Manstar recently opened up about his upcoming career plans and revealed that while he's got a few projects on the horizon, he's looking forward to taking a break in a few years. While speaking withBritish GQ, Holland shared that he feels "really blessed to be at a point in my career where I can take time off, reset, and come back ready to go."

"'It was a tough time, for sure," Holland toldExtrain 2023. "We were exploring certain emotions that I have definitely never experienced before. And then on top of that, being a producer, dealing with the day-to-day problems that come with any film set, just added that extra level of pressure." Holland has also spoken out about his plans to "disappear" once he becomes a father sometime in the future. "When I have kids, you will not see me in movies anymore," he explained toMen's Healthearlier this year. "Golf and dad. And I will just disappear off the face of the earth."

Smithsonian says Trump impeachments will be restored to exhibit

Smithsonian says Trump impeachments will be restored to exhibit

Washington —The Smithsonian said Saturday that it would update an exhibit at the National Museum of American History to reflect all impeachment proceedings in U.S. history after a placard was removed last month. "As the keeper of memory for the nation, it is our privilege and responsibility to tell accurate and complete histories," the Smithsonian said in a statement. The statement came after The Washington Postreportedlast week that the museum had removed references to President Trump's two impeachments earlier in the month as part of a content review. In the statement, the Smithsonian acknowledged the recent reporting around the matter, saying a placard was removed in July from the exhibit, "The American Presidency: A Glorious Burden," which the museum said is intended to "reflect all impeachment proceedings in our nation's history." The Smithsonian said it was "not asked by any Administration or other government official to remove content from the exhibit." "The placard, which was meant to be a temporary addition to a twenty-five year-old exhibition, did not meet the museum's standards in appearance, location, timeline and overall presentation," the statement said. "It was not consistent with other sections in the exhibit and moreover blocked the view of the objects inside its case. For these reasons, we removed the placard." Mr. Trump was impeached by the House in2019on charges related to efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rival, and in2021for inciting the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. He was acquitted in the Senate in both cases. Presidents Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton were also impeached, and both were also acquitted in the Senate. President Richard Nixon resigned facing an impeachment inquiry. The Smithsonian outlined that the impeachment section of the exhibit will be updated in the "coming weeks to reflect all impeachment proceedings in our nation's history."

A volcano in Russia’s Far East erupts for the first time in centuries

A volcano in Russia's Far East erupts for the first time in centuries

A volcano on Russia's far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula erupted overnight into Sunday for what scientists said is the first time in hundreds of years, days after a massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake. The Krasheninnikov volcano sent ash 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) into the sky, according to staff at the Kronotsky Reserve, where the volcano is located. Images released by state media showed dense clouds of ash rising above the volcano. "The plume is spreading eastward from the volcano toward the Pacific Ocean. There are no populated areas along its path, and no ashfall has been recorded in inhabited localities," Kamchatka's emergencies ministry wrote on Telegram during the eruption. The eruption was accompanied by a 7.0-magnitude earthquake and prompted a tsunami warning for three areas of Kamchatka. The tsunami warning was later lifted by Russia's Ministry for Emergency Services. "This is the first historically confirmed eruption of the Krasheninnikov volcano in 600 years," Olga Girina, head of the Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team, told Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. The Smithsonian Institution's Global Volcanism Program, based in the U.S., however, lists Krasheninnikov's last eruption as occurring 475 years ago in 1550. The reason for the discrepancy was not clear. The Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team said late Sunday that the volcano's activity was decreasing but that "moderate explosive activity" could continue. The eruption occurred after ahuge earthquakestruck Russia's Far East early Wednesday, an 8.8-magnitude temblor that caused small tsunami waves in Japan and Alaska and prompted warnings for Hawaii, North and Central America and Pacific islands south toward New Zealand.

Melissa Gilbert says “Little House” consciously told stories of the 1970s: 'Pretty hard-hitting'

Melissa Gilbert says "Little House" consciously told stories of the 1970s: 'Pretty hard-hitting'

Ted Shepherd/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty On the season 2 episode ofLittle House on the Prairiecalled "The Talking Machine," the quiet burg of Walnut Grove is blown away by the arrival of an Edison cylinder phonograph. To hearMelissa Gilberttell it, the townsfolk would have grooved along and murmured "right on" if it playedMarvin Gaye'sWhat's Going On. In a recent appearance onJennie Garth'sI Choose Mepodcast, Gilbert explained how the famousMichael Landon-led show may have been set in the 1870s, but was actually tackling issues relevant to contemporary audiences of the 1970s. (We will now pause to allow you to scoop your brains up from off the floor following this revelation.) NBCUniversal via Getty "It's wild to be a part of something that has that kind of longevity," Gilbert said of the show that ran on NBC from 1974 to 1982, and is currently readying fora remake version on Netflix. "It's so beloved," she continued. "People love that show. They love the stories that we told. They love the relevance of the stories that we told. Now people are looking back and going, 'Oh,Little House. They told some pretty palpable stuff.' Gilbert, who launched a clothing and lifestyle brand calledModern Prairiein 2022, added that the beloved series "was not exploitive. Michael Landon was consciously telling the stories of the 1970s through the lens of the 1870s. We were talking about civil rights and veterans coming home from the Civil War on our show, where [in our time] the veterans were coming home from the Vietnam War." She continued, "These were all topical and important stories, and unfortunately, so many are still things we need to discuss today. So that's why I thinkLittle Housecontinues on." Bettmann/Getty With that Q.E.D. officially on record, she concluded by saying, "I mean, we, you know, did dumb, fluffy episodes where we just had fun, but it was pretty hard-hitting. We took on rape, arson, crib death, all kinds of horrible, horrible things on that show." Indeed — wasn't there an episode where a school for the blind caught on fire and an infant died? Did we hallucinate that? It seemswe did not.

Fresh clashes break out in Syria as the interim government struggles to ease tensions

Fresh clashes break out in Syria as the interim government struggles to ease tensions

BEIRUT (AP) — New outbreaks of violence overnight into Sunday rocked Syria at two distinct flashpoints, straining a fragile ceasefire and calling into question the ability of the transitional government to exert its authority across the whole country. In the north, government-affiliated fighters confronted Kurdish-led forces who control much of the region, while in the southern province of Sweida, they clashed with Druze armed groups. The outbreaks come at a time when Syria's interim authorities are trying to maintain a tense ceasefire in Sweida province afterclashes with Druze factionslast month, and to implement an agreement with the U.S.-backed, Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces that would reintegrate large swaths of northeastern Syria with the rest of the country. The Syrian government under interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa has been struggling to consolidate control since he led asurprise insurgency that oustedformer President Bashar Assad in December, ending the Assad family's decades-long autocratic rule. Political opponents and ethnic and religious minorities have been suspicious of Sharaa's de facto Islamist rule and cooperation with affiliated fighters that come from militant groups. State state television said clashes between government forces and militias belonging to the Druze religious minority rocked the southern province of Sweida on Saturday after Druze factions attacked Syrian security forces, killing at least one member. The state-run Alikhbaria channel cited an anonymous security official who said the ceasefire has been broken. The Defense Ministry has not issued any formal statement. Meanwhile, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based war monitor, said in addition to the member of the security forces killed, one Druze was killed and at least nine others were wounded in the clashes that took place in the in the western part of Sweida province. The Observatory said the clashes took place at the strategic Tal al-Hadeed heights that overlook Daraa province next door. Difficult conditions in Sweida State media says that aid convoys continue to enter Sweida city as a part of a tense truce after over a week of violent clashes in July between Druze militias and armed Bedouin clans backed by government forces. However, humanitarian conditions remain dire, and residents of Sweida have called for the road into the city to be fully opened, saying the aid that has come in is not enough. The clashes that displaced tens of thousands of people came after months of tensions between Damascus and Sweida. The fighting led to a series of targeted sectarian attacks against the Druze minority, who are now skeptical of peaceful coexistence. Druze militias retaliated against Bedouin communities who largely lived in western areas of Sweida province, displacing many to neighboring Daraa. Elsewhere, in the northern Aleppo province, government-affiliated fighters clashed with the SDF. The Defense Ministry said three civilians and four soldiers were wounded after the SDF launched a barrage of rockets near the city of Manbij "in an irresponsible way and for unknown reasons." SDF spokesperson Farhad Shami on the other hand said the group was responding to shelling by "undisciplined factions" within government forces on Deir Haffar, an eastern city in the same province. The eastern part of Aleppo province straddles areas controlled by the government and by the SDF. Though the two are slowly trying to implement a ceasefire and agreement that would integrate the areas under Damascus, tensions remain. "The Ministry of Defense's attempts to distort facts and mislead public opinion do not contribute to security or stability," Shami said in a post on X, formerly Twitter. Israeli forces carry out raids bordering annexed Golan Heights In Quneitra province, in the south, the Israeli military announced it conducted another ground operation in the area that borders the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights. It said its troops questioned several suspects they accuse of involvement in weapons trafficking in the village of Hader, and raided four areas where they found weapons being trafficked. Since Assad's ouster, Israel has conducted numerous strikes and military operations in southern Syria, saying its forces are taking out militant groups that they suspect could harm Israelis and residents in the Golan Heights. Damascus has been critical of Israel's military activity, and the two sides have been trying to reach a security arrangement through U.S.-mediated talks. Syria has repeatedly said it does not intend to take military action against Israel. Those talks intensified after Israel backed the Druze in Sweida during the earlier clashes. Israel struck military personnel near the southern city and most notably launched an airstrike targeting the Defense Ministry headquarters in the heart of Damascus.
