The Opening Ceremony kicked off on Friday with several artists participating in a rendition of “Imagine” — which asks listeners to, ironically, imagine there are “no countries.” The Suginami Junior Chorus and Spanish musician Alejandro Sanz were also featured in the number.

Legend, an overtly Hollywood, belted out the lyrics, “Imagine no possessions/I wonder if you can/No need for greed or hunger/A brotherhood of man/ Imagine all the people/ Sharing all the world.” Read More

The Days Of Vaccine Lotteries Are Waning. Here Come The Mandates.

 

Getting a COVID-19 vaccine in summer 2021 could have given you a shot at a million dollars. Soon, not getting one could cost you your job.

Health officials and politicians have tried to stay positive in recent months as vaccination rates plummet, turning to ad campaigns touting giveaways and lottery drawings. And then the ultra-contagious delta variant arrived

Now health officials say the nation's lagging vaccine rates are creating a spiraling public health crisis as the unvaccinated rapidly get sick and the protective power of vaccines is given a "stress test." A growing chorus of voices say people who resist vaccinations should face pressure — and consequences.

Some hospital administrators agree, and healthcare workers who refused to get vaccinated have been fired or quit in New Jersey and Texas. In New York City, public health workers who refuse to get vaccinated will face weekly COVID tests. Read More

Former Surgeon General Jerome Adams Says Pandemic Is "Spiraling Out Of Control Again" Because Of Unvaccinated Americans

 

Washington — Vice Admiral Dr. Jerome Adams, the former surgeon general of the United States, said Sunday that the coronavirus pandemic is "spiraling out of control" again because too few people are vaccinated.

"There's also real harm to you because, guess what? More mitigation is coming, whether it's masking or whether it's closures or whether it's your kids having to return to virtual learning, that is coming," Adams said on "Face the Nation," speaking to unvaccinated Americans. "And it's coming because this pandemic is spiraling out of control yet again, and it's spiraling out of control because we don't have enough people vaccinated. So get vaccinated because it helps your neighbors, but get vaccinated because it's going to help every single American enjoy the freedoms that we want to return to." Read More

Inserting Animal Gene Made Potato And Rice Crops 50 Percent Bigger

 

Introducing animal genes into common crops has enabled scientists to massively increase their yield and make them more resistant to drought, according to a new study.  A consortium of researchers from the US and China manipulated the ribonucleic acid, or RNA, of potato and rice plants by adding a gene called FTO.

In humans, FTO has been linked to obesity—in the crops, it led to them growing three times bigger and producing three times the yield.   When they tried it out in real field tests, the vegetables grew 50 percent more mass and yielded 50 percent more plants. Read More

The United States Supreme Court set the precedent in the case ASSOCIATION FOR MOLECULAR PATHOLOGY ET AL. v. MYRIAD GENETICS, INC., ET AL. 

wherein the court Held: Read More

Montana’s Famed Trout Under Threat As Drought Intensifies

 

HELENA, Mont. — Few places in the world rival Montana’s fly fishing, and the state’s cold, clear mountain streams are renowned for their large populations of trout, especially the rainbow and brown.

Higher temperatures early in the year, worryingly low river levels, fish die-offs and pressure from the crush of anglers yearning to recapture a year lost to the pandemic have swirled into a growing crisis.
