This family found a lost bear cub on the road, and then this happened.
@Solopraneur
13 days agoI'm sorry, if you ever find a baby bear you run. Most of the time the mother is right behind it and they always attack.

William Shatner is 94 years old
William Shatner attributes his longevity to a mix of luck, genetics, staying physically and mentally active, and embracing life's opportunities with curiosity and a zest for joy. He stresses the importance of physical activity, a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, and a positive, engaged attitude, emphasizing that "your health and your energy is partially your doing, but partially accidental—genetic and accidental"

Trump Blames Tylenol for Autism
'During the press conference, officials pointed to a study done by Harvard University and other researchers that found that women who reported taking acetaminophen while they were pregnant seemed to be slightly more likely to have a child who was later diagnosed with autism.
One of the researchers on that study was Ann Bauer, an epidemiologist at the University of Massachusetts. Bauer said she thinks pregnant women should be told about a possible risk from acetaminophen. But the researcher also was worried that it might be too soon to have the federal government offering guidance on its use.
"I'm a little concerned about how this message is going to come because I think they may be jumping the gun," Bauer said before the announcement was made. "I think those of us in the research community would like to see stronger evidence."
Many physicians and autism advocacy groups said they opposed the administration's stance.
"It is highly unsettling that our federal health agencies are willing to make an announcement that will affect the health and well-being of millions of people without the backing of reliable data," Steven J. Fleischman, M.D., president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, said in a written statement.
Even the notice about acetaminophen issued to physicians by the Food and Drug Administration pointed out that a possible link to autism was an area of ongoing scientific debate, and said that "while an association between acetaminophen and autism has been described in many studies, a causal relationship has not been established and there are contrary studies in the scientific literature."
Specifically, the Food and Drug Administration, as well as the agency that sets policy for Medicare and Medicaid, pledged to change the indication on a medication called leucovorin as a treatment for autism, despite scant evidence that this form of vitamin B has any effect.
In response to that change, the American Psychiatric Association issued a statement opposing the administration's suggestion that vaccines cause autism, adding that leucovorin (folinic acid) is not recommended to treat autism, adding "it will require many more years of research before we know if leucovorin is an appropriate treatment for individuals with autism."'

The Failure of Modern Physics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO5u3V6LJuM
About a century ago, a fundamental problem emerged in physics: quantum mechanics and general relativity both produced highly accurate predictions, yet the two theories were mathematically incompatible. This sparked the ongoing search for a "theory of everything"—a framework that unifies gravity with the other fundamental forces of nature.
One of the most prominent approaches has been string theory, a mathematically sophisticated model that proposes the existence of tiny, vibrating strings as the basic building blocks of reality. String theory also predicts the existence of extra spatial dimensions. However, so far there is no experimental evidence to confirm it, and attempts to test its predictions have not been successful.
Because much of scientific research is supported by government funding, researchers are often under pressure to publish results regularly. This can encourage the production of work—whether or not it ultimately provides strong evidence or practical progress—since publishing is essential to sustaining an academic career.

Are Raw Milk, Seed Oils, and Uncured Deli Meat Good for You? - Consumer Reports
Seed Oils
These oils—which include canola, grapeseed, sunflower, and soy—are extracted from the seeds of plants. Critics say that their high levels of omega-6 fats raise inflammation in the body and that consuming them can lead to cancer, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and other illnesses.But the scientific evidence doesn't support that. "In dozens of studies looking at omega-6s and inflammation, I haven't seen one that shows an inflammatory effect, and roughly half of studies are showing anti-inflammatory effects," Willett says. For example, a 2019 review of 30 studies, published in the journal Circulation, found that people with the highest blood levels of a type of omega-6 fat called linoleic acid had a 7 percent lower risk of cardiovascular disease, possibly because linoleic acid reduces inflammation. Plus, Willett says, we've known for decades that these oils also cut LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels, and a higher intake of them has contributed significantly to the large decline in deaths from heart disease in the U.S."

TELO Releases Cancer Suppressing Results
Telomir Pharmaceuticals
I am not making a stock recommendation. This kind of drug, if it works, would be a miracle.
I have made a prediction that we would find ways to extend human lifespan. My prediction might be wrong, but there is research going on in this area.

How Could a Universe Come from NOTHING?

Most of this I have heard before.
I am sure that this will be controversial. There are many unknowns in science. Eventually we may know more.

RFK Jr. says he doesn't know how many Americans died from COVID
According to the most recent data publicized by the CDC, more than 1.2 million Americans had died from COVID as of Aug. 23. Numerous independent studies have found COVID vaccinations saved millions of lives in the United States and millions more around the world. More than 3.2 million American lives were saved from the first two years of COVID vaccinations, according to researchers in one study from the nonprofit Commonwealth Fund...
Kennedy blamed "dismal" data from the Biden administration for lacking clear answers about COVID, accusing the CDC under former President Joe Biden of "firing all the people who questioned the orthodoxy."
In another tense exchange with Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado, Kennedy said he agreed with comments from Dr. Retsef Levi, one of his handpicked appointments to a vaccine advisory panel, critical of the mRNA vaccine. Bennet singled out Levi previously saying mRNA vaccines "cause serious harm, including death, especially among young people."
"I wasn't aware he said it, but I agree with it," Kennedy said.

I saw the appointment of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as a potential problem. He appeared to be a conspiracy theorist, and likely would not be impartial in his judgement.
