NPR's coverage and https://apnews.com/live/election-biden-trump-campaign-updates-07-13-2024">AP's coverage of the assassination attempt on Trump. "The man identified as the shooter in the apparent assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump was a 20-year-old from a Pittsburgh suburb not far from the campaign rally where one attendee was killed."
Richard Simmons, Dr Ruth Westheimer, and so it goes.
"The (Colorado) state health department said late Friday afternoon that three new likely human cases of virus infection from avian flu have been identified. The highly pathogenic avian influenza is also called 'H5 bird flu.' The cases are in three poultry workers."
"Lack of a federal ban on tianeptine has meant states have been acting on their own. In 2018, Michigan became the first state to ban sales of the drug, classifying it as a Schedule II controlled substance, the same category as drugs like cocaine and fentanyl. The FDA says at least 12 states have enacted similar bans, which includes products such as Neptune's Fix and prohibits retailers from shipping to those states."
"And yet the dreaded came anyway this June, when monsoon season arrived early and taps in the northern New Mexico community paradoxically nearly went dry. That’s because flash flooding off the 2-year-old burn scar sent toxic debris into the Gallinas River, compromising Las Vegas’ (New Mexico) water treatment plant."
"A fleet of drones patrolling New York City’s beaches for signs of sharks and struggling swimmers is drawing backlash from an aggressive group of seaside residents: local shorebirds."
"So AI really does appear to make people more creative. But there’s a plot twist: When Hauser and Doshi looked at all the stories, they found a different effect... 'Collectively speaking, there was a smaller diversity of novelty in the group that had AI,' Hauser says... In other words, the chatbot made each individual more creative, but it made the group that had AI help less creative... Hauser describes the divergent result as a 'classic social dilemma' — a situation where people benefit individually, but the group suffers."
"But given the litigious nature of environmental law and the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decisions, particularly one limiting the power of federal agencies, legal experts say one of the election’s most consequential aspects for the climate would be the judicial appointments either candidate makes."
"Voters in Midwestern states are seeing ads railing against President Biden’s gas car ban. But there’s one catch: the Biden administration hasn’t prohibited gas-powered vehicles. That’s not stopping fossil fuel industry groups and former President Donald Trump from targeting swing state voters with warnings of car bans." Since when has the truth stopped political action groups?
