by Dr. Mari Nardolillo Dias, contributing writer on grief and grieving My son JoJo died 7 years ago from an accidental overdose. How do you measure a year? 525,600 minutes? How can it be 7 years without him? Three million, six hundred seventy-nine thousand two hundred minutes? Counting those minutes is difficult. I’m sure you understand. Two thousand five hundred fifty-six days. Yet, God has given me the strength each of those days, each of those minutes, to dedicate to the girls at TCRI. Save the lives of our girls. Love them back to life. I wish I could do the same for JoJo. If at his birth, God put my first-born son in my arms and said, “Deb, he is yours, but I will need him back in 36 years. Do you still want him?” My response would be a resounding “YES, of course!”. I was blessed to have JoJo in my life and still blessed in his death. He has sent me signs and I often speak to him. When I received a letter from JoJo (inspired and penned by Andrew Cohen), I ...

World Forum Have we missed something? Mud. It seems like a nuisance, doesn’t it? As soon as it rains, mud is everywhere, and it literally gets all over everything. There are definitely no benefits this slippery, sticky dirty substance could offer, right? Wrong. And the creators of International Mud Day are out to prove it! After all, mud is quintessential to the outdoors, and the outdoors mean fresh air and exercise, two of the best things for people. And so what if we get a little dirty? Plenty of research has shown that coming into contact with a certain amount of bacteria is good for us, as it helps build up immunity, as opposed to living in a virtually sterile environment, which makes our bodies very vulnerable. Not to mention how many minerals mud can—the...

RIDOH launches new data dashboard for tick-borne diseases   With warmer weather now here, and with Rhode Island still a high-incidence state for Lyme disease, the Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) and the Department of Environmental Management (DEM) are urging people to take precautions to prevent tick bites when outdoors.  After a mild winter in which more ticks than usual have likely survived into the spring, 2023 may be a bad year for tick bites and the transmission of Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases.   “While Rhode Islanders are enjoying the great outdoors, we need to make sure we’re all taking these three key steps to preventing Lyme and other tick-borne diseases: Repel, Check, Remove ,” said Interim Director of Health Utpala Bandy, MD, MPH. “Repel and reduce your exposure to ticks, check your body for ticks in the spots that they like to crawl and hide, and be sure to promptly and properly remove ticks if you find one on ...

Macy’s, Target and Dollar General are warning investors their sales will suffer this year as consumers shift spending to essentials NEW YORK -- Investors and a wide range of retailers are taking a dim view of the remainder of 2023 and expect consumers to buckle under pressure from i NFL ation. Macy's, Target and Dollar General are warning investors about weaker sales through the rest of the year as consumers shift their spending to essentials. Investors themselves have sold off shares of key retailers, with stock prices for many companies down substantially in a year when the broader market is making solid gains. The concerns are growing despite resilient retail sales reports from the government. The latest update for May showed surprising growth despite pressure from still-high inflation and rising borrowing costs. The Commerce Department reported that retail sales rose 0.3% in May, surprising analysts who expected a slight dip. The gains in May, though, came mostly from auto and...

Vinales joined Yamaha for the 2017 season and stayed there until midway through 2021, scoring eight of his nine MotoGP victories with the squad. As his results slumped following a round one win in Qatar in 2021, the relationship between Vinales and Yamaha had soured irreparably by the time of the Dutch GP, at which he was on pole and finished second. On the Monday after the Assen round, Yamaha announced it had agreed to part ways with Vinales a year earlier than his contract stipulated, before he was sacked after being found to have deliberately tried to damage his bike's engine in the Styrian GP. The 2023 season has been difficult for Yamaha, with Vinales noting that the complaints he was making about the bike in 2021 are the same as both Fabio Quartararo and Franco Morbidelli are making now. "I really believe that time will give the reason as to why I left," Vinales said on Thursday ahead of this weekend's Dutch GP. "I think a lot of riders now are ...

Microsoft says the early June disruptions to its Microsoft’s flagship office suite — including the Outlook email apps — were denial-of-service attacks by a shadowy new hacktivist group BOSTON -- In early June, sporadic but serious service disruptions plagued Microsoft's flagship office suite — including the Outlook email and OneDrive file-sharing apps — and cloud computing platform. A shadowy hacktivist group claimed responsibility, saying it flooded the sites with junk traffic in distributed denial-of-service attacks. Initially reticent to name the cause, Microsoft has now disclosed that DDoS attacks by the murky upstart were indeed to blame. But the software giant has offered few details — and did not immediately comment on how many customers were affected and whether the impact was global. A spokeswoman confirmed that the group that calls itself Anonymous Sudan was behind the attacks. It claimed responsibility on its Telegram social media channel at the time. Some security rese...

Sam Bankman-Fried, who has pleaded not guilty, is scheduled to stand trial in October. Federal prosecutors in New York said they would drop several criminal charges , at least for now, against disgraced crypto executive Sam Bankman-Fried if the judge agrees to try him later on those charges . The offer to sever five of the 13 charges followed a ruling earlier this week in the Bahamas that allows Bankman-Fried to challenge the additional charges. A prosecutor said during a hearing Thursday it was uncertain when the Bahamas would decide whether to consent to the new charges, which included bank fraud and an allegation Bankman-Fried bribed the Chinese. "Severing those counts seems to be appropriate given the developments in the Bahamas this week," the prosecutor, Nathan Rehn, said.

Newcastle United are set to make an offer for Inter midfielder Nicolo Barella, sources have confirmed to 90min . Newcastle are aiming to bring in two midfielders this summer and Barella has emerged as a player very high on their radar. Newcastle's owners, the Saudi PIF, are ready to back Eddie Howe in the transfer market with a bumper transfer budget and would need a sizeable sum to land a target like Barella. 90min understands that the Magpies are ready to tempt Inter with a deal worth £50m, but it remains to be seen if that would be enough as the likes of Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain have previously been told that it would take nearer to £75m to land the 26-year-old. Italian sources have stressed that an agreement for Barella is not close to being reached at this point.
