In her forthcoming book, No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward she admitted to personally shooting her 14-month-old dog, Cricket, who was unsuitable for hunting due to her aggressive nature. Cricket
also killed chickens, seemingly for the fun of it.###Kristi Noem did nothing unusual.According to the ASPCA’s recent data, approximately 390,000 dogs are annually euthanized in its shelters. An estimated 2 million dogs die in “puppy mills” each year due to being unsellable or no longer able to breed. No doubt, the total is much larger if figures from veterinarians are...

Joe Biden is in Wilmington, Delaware, for yet another vacation. He
did, however, take a brief sojourn from the vacation to go to West Point to deliver the commencement address. Biden previously gave a commencement address that got heavily criticized -- and rightly so -- for being a race-baiting mess. At West Point, Biden had to take a walk to get to the stage after they announced him. It was concerning to watch how he moved forward in that stilted fashion that he has, with the "Mr. Burns" empty look on his face:

| May 15, 2024 | Jana Vukovic, Ph.D. et al
New research provides insights into how exercise may help to prevent or slow cognitive decline during aging. For
the study, investigators assessed the expression of genes in individual cells in the brains of mice. The team found that exercise has a significant impact on gene expression in microglia, the immune cells of the central nervous system that support brain function. Specifically, the group found that exercise reverts the gene expression patterns of aged microglia to patterns seen in young microglia. Treatments that depleted microglia revealed that these cells are required for the stimulatory effects of exercise on the formation of...

Even the Left Admits the Red-State Faculty “Brain-Drain” Never Happened

Much “news” today consists of quick, divisive headlines with little regard for complexity or subtlety. A
prominent example is the rapid firestorm that surrounded the conservative governments of Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and Georgia last year when some faculty loudly expressed their dissatisfaction with right-leaning higher-ed reforms. Having consulted an American Association of University Professors (AAUP) survey on the subject, media everywhere ran with the notion that red-state faculty would soon be fleeing, with many outlets printing articles claiming a “brain-drain” would soon occur. The AAUP survey in question, conducted last fall, attempted to understand whether and why faculty members...

Has Gavin Newsom’s Brain Always Been Mush?

California’s health is vital to this country. It’s
too important to be run by political cranks. Unfortunately, it has become a True Blue state, setting much of the agenda for progressive politics everywhere. At the top is Gov. Gavin Newsom, who at one time seemed almost a happy warrior. Now it’s clear he’s an impulsive leftist hack who’ll say and do anything in the service of seeking ever greater power. His most recent descent into Democratic madness was obvious a couple of weeks ago, when he blamed California’s $45 billion deficit on climate change. “We anticipated that shortfall,” Newsom said...

Nerves prompt muscle to release factors that boost brain health, study finds

Exercise prompts muscles to release molecular cargo that boosts brain cell function and connection, but the process is not well understood. New
research has found that the nerves that tell muscles to move also prompt them to release more of the brain-boosting factors. "The molecules released from the muscle go into the bloodstream and then to the brain." said Hyunjoon Kong. "As we get older, we lose these neurons from the muscle," he said. The researchers compared two muscle tissue models—one with neuron innervation and one without. They found that the innervated muscle produced more molecules that promote brain neuron...

Biden Suffered Near-Fatal Brain Aneurysm, Priest Came to Deliver Last Rites.
|
| |
the National Pulse ^
| 5/14/24
The 81-year-old Joe Biden suffered from a life-threatening aneurysm that had been misdiagnosed as a pinched nerve in February 1988. After
having to take upwards of ten Tylenol a day to provide a modicum of pain relief, doctors discovered the dangerous warping of a blood vessel. If that vessel had burst, it would have likely been fatal. Biden underwent an emergency surgery to correct the condition and head off its potentially deadly consequences. An aneurysm is a warping in a blood vessel, commonly as a bulge or bubble. Aneurysms can fill with blood and subsequently rupture. When ruptured, aneurysms are...

VIDEOSenator Robert Casey Jr. who inherited a political career from his father Governor Robert Casey, Sr. has managed to get by for almost 20 years in the U.S. Senate by doing basically nothing but meaningless shuckin' and jivin' which, along with strong support from the Democrats, has managed to keep him in
office. However, this year poor Casey is up for re-election and the Gaza issue threatens to divide his Democrat constituency especially since Joe Biden plans to resettle many Gazans in the USA, including Pennsylvania. Unfortunately for the Senate's Robby the Robot, he has not yet been programmed on...

With more than 1.4 petabytes of electron microscopy imaging data, a team of scientists has reconstructed a teeny-tiny cubic segment of the human brain. It's just a millimeter on each side – but 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, and 230 millimeters of ultrafine veins are all packed into that microscopic space. The work of almost a decade, it's the largest and most detailed...

New "IONTRONIC MEMRISTOR” Could Revolutionize Brain-like Computing Using Only Salt and Water

The Debrief ^
| May 9, 2024 | TIM MCMILLAN·
Scientists from the Netherlands and South Korea say they have made a significant leap towards artificially replicating the human brain by developing a device called the “iontronic memristor.” Researchers
say this novel device, barely larger than a human hair, functions as an artificial synapse, mimicking the brain’s unique ability to process and share information. “The brain’s computing principles (neurons connected by synapses) and information carriers (ions in water) both differ fundamentally from those of conventional computers,” researchers wrote. “Building on this distinction, we present an aqueous memristor that emulates the brain’s short-term synaptic plasticity features through ion transport in water,...

In 2010, Kennedy, now 70, experienced severe memory loss and mental fog, he said in a deposition two years later. According
to the Times, he consulted top neurologists familiar with the medical history of his uncle, the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, who had died of brain cancer in 2009. A New York doctor, after reviewing a scan of his brain, told him that his health issues could be “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the 2012 deposition, which concerned a divorce from his second wife,...

U.S. — Following the revelation that a deadly parasite was once removed from his skull, political experts were shocked to learn that the dead worm found in Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s brain was already polling higher than Joe Biden in 11 states. The
latest poll results indicated a large portion of the electorate had abandoned Biden in favor of the deceased parasite that had previously been lodged in RFK Jr.'s brain, leaving the White House scrambling to formulate a strategy to combat the dead worm. "We weren't expecting to see numbers like these," said one high-ranking Biden campaign strategist under...

In 2010, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was experiencing memory loss and mental fogginess so severe that a friend grew concerned he might have a brain tumor. Mr.
Kennedy said he consulted several of the country’s top neurologists, many of whom had either treated or spoken to his uncle, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, before his death the previous year of brain cancer. Several doctors noticed a dark spot on the younger Mr. Kennedy’s brain scans and concluded that he had a tumor, he said in a 2012 deposition reviewed by The New York Times.

An aspiring medical student was left brain dead last month when his friends pushed him into a Louisiana lake knowing he couldn’t swim — and then looked on while doing nothing to save the drowning man, according to a report. Shocking
video shows the group casually peering into the water moments after they shoved Christopher Gilbert off the dock at Lake D’Arbonne in Farmerville on April 14. At least one woman can be seen slowly entering the water before abandoning the rescue mission. It was another 10 minutes before a patron at a nearby restaurant intervened and yanked Gilbert back...

Joe Biden held a Medal of Freedom ceremony on Friday in which he awarded standouts like John Kerry, Al Gore, and Nancy Pelosi with America's highest civilian honor. What
did they do to deserve such a reward? The answer is nothing, but they have been radical leftists, and that was enough.

A dad who suffered a brain injury just days after receiving a British-developed COVID vaccine has told Sky News he would never have had the jab if he had known of the risk of rare but serious side effects. Jamie
Scott, who has two young boys and is now unable to work, is suing AstraZeneca for what he says is damage caused by the jab in April 2021. He alleges the pharmaceutical giant exaggerated the vaccine's effectiveness and downplayed its risks. AstraZeneca denies the claims made against them. In his first TV interview, Mr Scott told Sky News: "I took...
