Henry Cavill on elegance, legacy and what truly matters across time zones

The timing of this collaboration is especially significant, as Longines celebrates 100 years since it debuted the world's first dual-time zone wristwatch in 1925. That historic timepiece, the Zulu Time, borrowed its name from the NATO phonetic designation for 'Z' (UTC+0), a reference to Greenwich Mean Time. First created for the Royal Canadian Navy, the original Zulu Time represented a breakthrough for global navigation, especially in the age of pioneering aviation. To commemorate the centennial, Longines introduces the Spirit Zulu Time 1925, a special-edition watch that blends the brand's pioneering legacy with modern sophistication. Housed in a 39mm stainless steel case with an 18-karat rose gold-capped rotating bezel, the model debuts several firsts for the collection. The black dial, adorned with rose gold-coloured indexes and Super-LumiNova-treated hour markers, is refined yet highly legible. Under the dial, the exclusive Longines calibre L844.4 offers true GMT functionality and a 72-hour power reserve. Its silicon balance spring and cutting-edge components ensure magnetic resistance far exceeding ISO standards, while the transparent caseback reveals a rose gold PVD rotor engraved with a planisphere intersected by the Prime Meridian. For Cavill, such craftsmanship is more than a technical marvel; it's a form of storytelling. 'There is such a history to watchmaking and to keeping time. These days, we really take it for granted—quite how important it was for navigation, and how the smallest error meant the difference between life and death.'

Egypt to Bring Daylight Saving Time for 2025 This Thursday

Rana Atef Egypt will start working with daylight saving time from the final Friday of April, April 25, to the final Thursday of October, 30. People will adjust their clocks from 00:00 to 1:00 am on Friday. Last year, the Egyptian Cabinet approved the return of daylight saving time after years of absence. The decision indicated that daylight saving time will be applied from the final Friday of April to the final Thursday of October. On its official Facebook page, the Cabinet said that the return of daylight saving time is due to the recent developments in the world, and the government's target to save energy. The system was implemented for the first time in the country in 1988. It was introduced as a power-saving measure. However, it was abolished in April 2011 and was revived in 2014 to ease the consumption after the problem of energy that stroke Egypt at that time. 2016 witnessed the abolishment of the system. Originally, Egypt is two hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). It will turn to three hours ahead by the application of daylight saving time. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..

Weekend forecast: A warm Saturday then Easter Sunday looks glorious with sunshine, low 60s

The full pink moon this month was at 8:22 p.m. EDT this past Saturday, so you might think, 'Why wasn't Easter this past weekend?' Easter is calculated based on Greenwich Mean Time, so the full moon occurred 22 minutes after midnight GMT on Sunday, which pushes Easter to this coming Sunday, April 20. Saturday and Easter Sunday So now that you understand how Easter itself is calculated, what about the weather? Before we get to Easter, we're going to have a very warm day on Saturday if you're out shopping and getting food. There might be a couple of showers in the afternoon or evening, and temperatures are actually going to be in the 70s. That frontal system will come through the area Saturday evening, and the way it looks now, any shower activity will be done before sunrise on Sunday. Sunrise Sunday morning will be at 5:54 in Boston, a couple of minutes later in Worcester. Advertisement Highs should reach the low 70s on Saturday across Southern New England. Boston Globe Scattered showers will work into New England Saturday evening. Boston Globe A few early-morning clouds are possible, but the trend will be for developing sunshine. Morning temperatures are expected to be between 47 and 54, not very cold. In the afternoon, we should better those temps by roughly 10 degrees, putting us in the low 60s, although it'll be in the 50s across Northern New England, with even some 40s farther north. The wind will be out of the west and the air will feel quite dry. If you are going to be taking a walk or doing an Easter egg hunt, the ground should dry out very quickly from any overnight showers. Temperatures on Sunday should settle in the low 60s across most of Southern New England. Boston Globe Monday: Patriots' Day and Marathon Day The following day is Patriots' Day and the Boston Marathon. High pressure will build into the region, providing us with a mostly sunny day. It'll be chilly at sunrise with temperatures about 38 in Hopkinton as the buses are rolling the athletes west. At the start of the race, readings will already be well into the 40s, and I suspect as the elite runners are finishing near noontime, temperatures will be approaching 55 or even 60. For spectators, it will be an ideal day, although it may be a bit warm for runners, especially those of you who finish in the afternoon. The sun is as strong as it would be in mid-August, so if you're going to be outside for any extended amount of time, sunscreen will be in order. Since high pressure will be cresting right over New England, winds will be light. There might be a little bit of a seabreeze as runners approach Boston, but I think wind is not necessarily a major factor here. As a side note, a westerly or southwesterly breeze would be ideal, giving the runners a little bit of a push on their way in. The bottom line is that Easter and Patriots' Day are both looking glorious and no matter how you're spending the upcoming weekend and holiday, the weather will cooperate. Advertisement

This weekend's full moon is called the 'pink moon.' Why's it called that? Here's when it will light up the night sky.

Skygazers will be able to enjoy spring's first full moon — known as a 'pink moon' — across the world this weekend. And for some, it is imbued with religious significance. Here's when and how to see it: The pink moon will peak on Saturday, April 12, at 8:22 p.m. ET — or at 00:22 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) on April 13. The Old Farmer's Almanac also provides a moonrise calculator based on your location. While April's full moon is called a pink moon, it won't actually be pink (womp, womp). It gets its name from the pink wildflowers that are the earliest to bloom in spring in parts of North America, known as creeping phlox, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. The first full moon that appears on or after the spring equinox is also known as the paschal moon and is used to determine the date of Easter. The Christian holiday falls on the first Sunday following the first full moon in spring. Because the full moon will appear either on April 12 or 13 depending on where you are located around the world, Easter will instead fall on April 20 this year because it's the first Sunday after the full moon. It also explains why the Christian holiday falls so late in 2025. The first full moon in spring also coincides with the start of the Jewish holiday Passover, which falls on April 12 this year. The moon's cycle lasts for 29.5 days and goes through eight phases during that time: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third quarter and waning crescent. The pink moon will also be considered a 'micromoon,' designated as such when the moon is the farthest distance away from Earth. It's the exact opposite of a 'supermoon,' which occurs when the moon is the closest distance from Earth. An open field or elevated locations with an unobstructed view facing the eastern horizon are the best spots for viewing the moon as it rises. Skygazers will be able to see the full moon with the naked eye, but binoculars or a telescope will allow them to see the details of the lunar surface.
