While horror makes wild claims of "based on a true story" from time to time, not every instance seen in the genre is a gimmick formed from a shred of truth. Quite the opposite is 2016'(a.k.), a film based on a well-documented true story — a true crime, in fact. The real-life inspiration for this offering of Finnish horror also has the distinction of being a famous cold case; from a legal standpoint, the Lake Bodom Murders were never solved.

In April 2023, we reported on federal efforts to streamline fusion energy regulations. At that time, the Commissioners of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) voted to approve a proposal expected to accelerate the commercialization of fusion energy in the United States. Specifically, the NRC determined that fusion energy should be regulated under the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's byproduct material framework contained in 10 CFR Part 30, "Rules of General Applicability to Domestic Licensing of Byproduct Material," rather than Part 50, which are the burdensome licensing rules for constructing and operating traditional commercial-scale nuclear fission reactors.

Artificial intelligence (also commonly referred to as "AI") is rapidly reshaping industries, and the health and welfare space is no exception. As employers seek innovative ways to improve the administration of health and welfare plans, AI could be a potential tool to optimize operations and reduce costs, but the adoption of AI comes with challenges and ethical considerations, particularly in the areas of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") and Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") as well as the fiduciary responsibilities thereunder.
