In the aftermath of the mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, yesterday, some reports indicated that immigrants affected by the shooting may have avoided seeking treatment or going to authorities for help locating family members because of their immigration status. On CNN, for example, the former assistant secretary of Homeland Security Juliette Kayyem noted that according to authorities,

Our largest planet and the red supergiant are close together in the south-eastern sky, joined on Wednesday evening by the moon There is an interesting trio of celestial objects to look out for on the evening of 8 August. The mighty planet Jupiter is currently close to the red giant star Antares in the constellation Scorpius . On 8 August, this pair will be joined by the moon. The chart shows the
I can't remember if I dreamt this up or it was a futuristic idea I saw somewhere: would it be possible in crowded areas such as a mall, concert, airport etc to permeate the air with a mist or gas that is basically a non Newtonian style composition so that everything going slower than a bullet would be fine but a bullet or other dangerously fast projectile would start to collect foam around it and
As there's a minimum age, there should be a maximum one. Aging causes decline in numerous cognitive skills as shown in numerous studies. Older candidates are less likely to support new ideas, technologies and societal changes. None Look, this is not meant to be ageist. But as we have a minimum age to become President – 35 – there should be a maximum age too. Why 35 anyway? Who determined that 35
Will America finally confront the violent death rattle of white supremacy? Or will it fail to inflict the coup de grâce, allowing the ideology of hate to revive itself into a global movement, with radicalized young men engaged in what they believe is a zero-sum war for survival? Last year, those opening lines might have been dismissed as alarmist rhetoric and hyperbole. We no longer have that lux
Updated on August 4, 2019 at 4:26 p.m. ET It was a part of the presidency that would come to surprise Bill Clinton, if only because of its heartrending frequency. Soon after the gun massacre at Columbine High School in the spring of 1999, Clinton flew to Littleton, Colorado, to talk with students, teachers, and parents mourning the deaths of the 13 victims. So much of his job, he told the audienc

You can get your hands dirty no matter where you live. (Julian Hochgesang via Unsplash/) Before man was, gardening waited for him. The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner. Ok fine, Cormac McCarthy was actually talking about war when he wrote that, but if you ask me, it still holds true for gardening. Along with mastering fire, the purposeful cultivation of plants is widely considere
Updated at 2:34 p.m. ET on August 4, 2019. There was, it seems, no time to avert the massacre. The anti-immigrant, white-nationalist manifesto heralding an imminent attack was uploaded to the online message board 8chan only minutes before a shooter killed at least 20 people out shopping on a late-summer Saturday in El Paso, Texas. But in another sense, if U.S. authorities confirm that the documen

Er det politikernes frygt for læger, der har presset lægerne ud af sygehusvæsnets ledelse? Men politikere og administratorer skal ikke være bange for lægerne. Lægerne er dedikerede, hårdt arbejdende, og de kæmper for deres patienter – tag os tilbage i beslutningsprocesserne.

Shortly after 12 a.m. ET this morning, Senator Kamala Harris tweeted, "My message to the president on gun violence." What followed was an eight-second clip of an interview she had conducted on MSNBC earlier in the evening, after a gunman killed at least 20 people and wounded dozens more at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas. "Have the courage to act," the California Democrat said. "Do something. Do some
et dansk samfund bruger mere end dobbelt så meget end hidtil antaget på mentale helbredsproblemer, nemlig over 110 mia. kr. om året. Faktisk topper vi OECD's liste. Overraskende at det får lov til at tage til i styrke.
When you're going through a moment that tests your patience, even causes you to psychologically suffer, sometimes you have to step back and say, "Yes, thank you." Suffering is like sandpaper, and, if we choose, it can buffer us and make us better versions of ourselves. Also, it's critical to find a quiet place within where just the fundamental fact that you are participating in reality imbues you

"Where do you see yourself in five years?" It's a classic job interview question, designed to probe your level of ambition and aspiration. And it probes about as far ahead as many of us are likely to think: with so many distractions in the here and now, so many crises and challenges and opportunities that will arise, and so much that seems likely to change, who can meticulously sit and plan for d

Operation could benefit thousands of women who experience serious health issues A medical procedure that aims to allow women to delay the menopause for up to 20 years has been launched by IVF specialists in Britain. Doctors claim the operation could benefit thousands of women who experience serious health problems, such as heart conditions and bone-weakening osteoporosis, that are brought on by t

At least 20 people are dead in El Paso, Texas, and once again some ghoul with a rifle has reignited the moronic inferno of online commentary that follows such events. Was this an act of terrorism? If the gunman's alleged manifesto proves genuine, does that mean the so-called alt-right or online white nationalism shares blame for this atrocity? Should zealots have access to deadly weapons? Is Dona
Hawkins, the cruel British military officer who looms over Jennifer Kent's new film, The Nightingale , doesn't give reasons for the several atrocities he commits over the course of the film. Only near the end, after murdering someone who wouldn't stop pleading for his life, does he finally offer the flimsiest of explanations. "I just can't stand all the fucking noise," he whines. And yet Hawkins
'Hypersanity' is not a common or accepted term. But neither did I make it up. I first came across the concept while training in psychiatry, in The Politics of Experience and the Bird of Paradise (1967) by R D Laing. In this book, the Scottish psychiatrist presented 'madness' as a voyage of discovery that could open out onto a free state of higher consciousness, or hypersanity. For Laing, the desc
With a stunningly simple proof, a researcher has finally cracked the sensitivity conjecture, "one of the most frustrating and embarrassing open problems."
Around the world thousands of people are on organ donor waiting lists. While some of those people will receive the organ transplants they need in time, the sad reality is that many will die waiting. But controversial new research may provide a way to address this crisis. Japan has recently overturned its ban on the creation of human-animal hybrids, or "chimeras", and approved a request by researc
In the early days of the opioid crisis, public officials had reasons to blame it on all the pills. News stories featured people who, to the shock of their neighbors and loved ones, had died unexpectedly of a drug overdose. In an emergency, authorities do what they can with the tools at hand. In tightening controls on doctors who prescribed pain relievers, state and federal agencies were focusing
All abortion debates are eternal. Within the abortion-rights movement, there are long-standing tensions between the absolutists and the incrementalists, the uncompromising progressives and the cautious voices. And right now, as in the rest of American politics, the unapologetically progressive voices are ascendant. I recently reached out to three former Planned Parenthood presidents—Faye Wattleto
The brain is buzzing with gamma oscillations – cycles of neuronal activity with a frequency (around 40-60 Hz) higher than that of other major brain waves. A longstanding hypothesis is that gamma serves as a kind of 'clock signal' that enables the coordination and integration of signals. Gamma has even been proposed as the mechanism by which the brain 'binds' information from different brain areas

Nearly half of bacteria gathered in public settings around the city were resistant to two or more commonly used antibiotics, like penicillin and erythromycin. Christopher Intagliata reports.
It's time to stop being mealy-mouthed about this. No more silent passes to climate science deniers Over the past couple of weeks things have been happening on the climate change front but, unfortunately, little is changing in parliament, where the government's direct action policy has continued to be an utter failure and a Queensland LNP MP suggested in his first speech in the House of Representa
