NPR's All Thing's Considered

Make Time Fly And You'll Have More Fun

Everyone knows that "time flies when you’re having fun," but a new study suggests that the reverse is also true. Researchers tricked people into thinking that either time was flying … or dragging. Those who thought time had "flown by," rated their experiences as more fun.

U.S.-Allied Sunni Groups Struggle Under Iraqi Control

The Sunni militias known as the Sons of Iraq, or Sahwa movement, were credited with helping to defeat al-Qaida in Iraq during the U.S. surge that began in 2007. They have fallen on hard times since coming under Iraqi government control a year ago, facing arrest and other troubles.

Iran Cleric's Funeral Becomes Opposition Protest

Further evidence that opposition to the Iranian government remains strong: Tens of thousands turned out for the funeral of a leading dissident cleric — Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri — in the holy Shiite city of Qum.

'Three-Hour Rule' To Address Tarmac Delays

Starting this spring, delayed airliners must return to a terminal or face hefty fines. They must also offer food and water, maintain lavatories and provide necessary medical attention. The outcry over scenes like this one from a stalled 2007 JetBlue flight promoted the new rules.

James Fallows, national correspondent for The Atlantic and news analyst for Weekend All Things Considered, talks to Michele Norris about his weeklong experiment using the search engine Bing instead of Google to help him track down facts for his latest Atlantic article.

Happy And Insured, Man Has Doubts On Overhaul

Dave Koenig has health insurance through work, and is happy with the plan. But as the health care debate drags on, he says he's losing faith in the overhaul plan. Koenig, who calls himself a conservative, says that at first he was open to President Obama's call to regulate the insurance industry to protect patients. But as lawmakers negotiate behind closed doors, and it's still unclear how much it will cost, Koenig is growing wary of the plan. And he's hoping his health insurance won't change when all is said and done.

Eurostar To Resume Service Tuesday

Eurostar said it would resume its high-speed rail service linking Britain, France and Belgium on Tuesday after a three-day suspension that stranded tens of thousands of travelers. The traffic was suspended between Paris and London through the Channel tunnel as experts tried to discover what caused five trains to get stuck while attempting the passage on Friday.

Health Care Bill Heads For Passage

Senate Democrats won a key procedural vote in the early hours of the morning, overcoming Republican opposition to health care legislation. Two more votes loom before expected final Senate passage by Christmas Eve.

Borzou Daragahi, a reporter with The Los Angeles Times, has just left Iran. He talks to Michele Norris about how the death of Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri is affecting the opposition movement in Iran.

Brooke Astor Son Sentenced To At Least 1 Year

Meryl Gordon, author of Mrs. Astor Regrets: The Hidden Betrayals of a Family Beyond Reproach, talks to Michele Norris about the trial of socialite Brooke Astor's son, Anthony Marshall. Marshall and his accomplice, Francis Morrissey, were convicted of defrauding Marshall's mother of millions of dollars before her death in 2007.
