Atticus Bartlett died in hospital after collapsing at his family home in Chard, Somerset, on July 16, 2022. His father, Tony Bartlett, 39, of Axminster, Devon, was convicted of murder following a trial at Bristol Crown Court. The jury found Bartlett violently shook Atticus, causing severe internal injuries to the baby’s brain and spinal cord. Mr Justice Cavanagh jailed Bartlett, formerly a postman, for life and ordered him to serve a minimum of 18 years in prison. The judge told Bartlett he was “very drunk” when he carried out the fatal attack on Atticus, adding: “I have no doubt that this terrible tragedy would not have happened if you were not so heavily intoxicated.” He said Bartlett had been feeding Atticus with a bottle and the baby was bringing up the milk. “In your drunken …

Sleep expert advises to put socks into freezer now, ready for tonight (Image: Reach PLC) Brits across the country are struggling to sleep comfortably as the UK’s latest heatwave continues for yet another day. The sweltering conditions, triggered by a ‘heat dome’ according to the Met Office, have brought baking hot highs close to 40C during the day and left temperatures around 25C at night. In hot weather, many people find it hard to sleep because the body has to drop its core temperature by around 1C to 1.5C to start and keep deep sleep. When the temperature and humidity are high, this natural cooling doesn’t happen, causing people to feel restless and wake up often. As the record-breaking nighttime heat and humidity make sleeping difficult, millions of people are looking for ways to reduce indoor heat and stay cool overnight. Health experts say that our bodies genuinely struggle to drift off when it’s warm, because we need our core temperature to drop in order to fall asleep. Dr Deborah Lee, a health specialist from …

Tony Dokoupil’s Tribute to Fired Scott Pelley on CBS Evening News

Published by Daniella Wilson

Tony Dokoupil shared some heartfelt words on CBS Evening News about his former colleague Scott Pelley after the veteran journalist was fired on Tuesday. During Wednesday’s show, Dokoupil — who was appointed anchor of the evening newscast by CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss at the start of her tenure last year — took a moment to praise Pelley’s career. “When I started at CBS, Scott Pelley was in this very chair, and still doing a dozen stories a year for 60 Minutes. And amid all of that, still meeting every new correspondent to share his view of the mission here,” he said. “He believed freedom of the press, to quote [James] Madison, was ‘the right that guaranteed all the others.’ And the stakes are always that high in that, if you’d made it to CBS News, you were among the best in the world. He worked every single day to live up to that standard.” A compilation of some of Pelley’s work at CBS over the years, after he joined the network in 1989, was then played. The video …

Sotheby’s Modern Evening Sale Totals $303.9 M. Led by Matisse

Published by Jenni Sidey

A few minutes into Sotheby’s Modern Evening Auction on Tuesday night, the pauses between bids began telling their own story. Collectors still showed up for the museum-quality material, particularly blue-chip works by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Alberto Giacometti, and Vincent van Gogh, but the atmosphere inside the Breuer building often felt cautious rather than euphoric, as buyers weighed estimates carefully and bidding wars appeared only intermittently. By the end of the evening, Sotheby’s had achieved a total of $303.9 million, with 98 percent of lots finding buyers. While the sale brought in 63 percent more than the equivalent sale last year—marked by the infamous Giacometti flop—the total came in below the presale high estimate of $320.2 million. Overall, the sale’s results reinforced a growing reality across the art market this season: demand remains strong for exceptional works, but conviction still comes with conditions.
