(BPT) - Being empowered often comes from being informed. And when it comes to diseases like blood cancer, having or not having information can make a significant difference in outcomes. This Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Lorna Warwick, CEO of the Lymphoma Coalition, is on a mission: to prove how early and informed decision-making can help make all the difference. “When a patient is diagnosed with cancer, it's scary. Everything we know about cancer says that you should be afraid,” explains Warwick. “Coming in as a new patient, you're trying to deal with that fear and cope with that fear, trying to understand all this new terminology, what's happening to you. It's a brand-new world.” Getting educated is one of the best ways to cope with this new reality. Part of that is understanding not only who to talk to, but what to say. Statistically, more people are living with cancer today than ever before, thanks to new treatment options. But these new treatment options often only make it … [Read more...] about Taking Charge of Your Care This Blood Cancer Awareness Month

Some very welcome good news – Alex Albon is reported to be back home after his bout of appendicitis at the Italian Grand Prix took a worrying turn. On Saturday morning, a matter of minutes before final practice at Monza, the Williams team announced Albon would be unable to take part in the remainder of the race weekend due to a bout of appendicitis. His place was taken by Nyck de Vries, who went on to capture many headlines with a sparkling Formula 1 debut display in which he reached the second part of qualifying, started eighth on the grid due to engine penalties incurred by rivals and finished the race in ninth – scoring two World Championship points. On Monday, 24 hours after the race, Williams then issued an alarming press release that revealed Albon, who required surgery to have his appendix removed, had ended up in intensive care due to suffering respiratory problems. The rest of the bulletin was positive, however, saying the London-born Thai driver was on the road … [Read more...] about Alex Albon ‘back home’ after worrying post-surgery development

AUSTIN, Texas — A hardline Christian activist and an evangelical church in North Texas are arguing that federal employment protections for LGBT workers don’t apply to bisexuals. In a brief filed with the federal appeals court last week, their lawyers argued the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2020 decision barring employment discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity does not apply to bisexuals — as long as bi men are being discriminated against “on equal terms” as bi women. “An employer who discriminates on account of an employee or job applicant’s bisexual orientation (or conduct) cannot engage in ‘sex’ discrimination as defined,” the lawyers wrote, “because that employer would have taken the exact same action against an identically situated individual of the opposite biological sex.” They filed the brief the day it was due, Sept. 21, midway through Bisexuality Awareness Week . Bisexuals made up the majority , nearly 57%, of Americans who identified as LGBT … [Read more...] about Bisexuals not covered by federal employment protections, Texas plaintiffs argue

Click here to read the full article. Corporate culture comes from the top in America. At least that’s the platonic ideal. How a company sets its global image, how it treats its employees, what it values — that all starts in the so-called C-suite. In some companies, that ethos can be found in a single man — they are almost always men — who emerge as the face of the firm. (Think Steve Jobs at Apple or Jeff Bezos at Amazon.) That l’etat, c’est moi approach is evident at Tesla . Elon Musk is Tesla, and Tesla is Elon Musk. This has been true since the South African became CEO and wrested control of the electric-car company from its founders in 2008. The board is not forcing Musk’s hand. (It was Musk who decided Tesla would move its corporate HQ from California to Texas.) At times he can be so hands-on that he has overnighted at the Fremont, California, factory where the cars are manufactured. Musk’s tweets can make Tesla stock rise and fall. The personal and the corporate are … [Read more...] about ‘How Many Women Were Abused to Make That Tesla?’

The Food and Drug Administration issued a warning on Sep. 15 alerting TikTok users and others on social media about the dangers of cooking chicken breasts in NyQuil, a popular over-the-counter cold and flu medicine. The message referred to a "challenge" involving the combination of medicine and poultry, which is it described as "silly and unappetizing." "The challenge sounds silly and unappetizing — and it is," the FDA stated. "But it could also be very unsafe. Boiling a medication can make it much more concentrated and change its properties in other ways," While lighthearted in tone, the FDA's message appears to have only amplified general awareness of an otherwise obscure trend that began as an Internet message board joke. The origins of "NyQuil chicken" stem from a 2017 video posted to the online forum 4chan. The footage showed chicken breasts cooking in blue-green NyQuil, and images from the post would later make the rounds on Reddit and Twitter before disappearing … [Read more...] about FDA’s ‘NyQuil Chicken’ warning may have ignited a cough medicine cooking frenzy

Kyrie Irving is going to Kyrie Irving, and what that means tends to change on a bi-weekly basis. Sometimes "Kyrie-ing" is dusting the court with a touch of burnt sage before the game, other times it's asking the hard questions about the true nature of supposedly sphere-like planets . This week, it was secret societies and the teachings of Alex Jones that piqued the Brooklyn Nets shooting guard's interest. On Wednesday Irving reshared a video posted by the Instagram account "The Free Thought Project" featuring a 2002 clip of the InfoWars founder ranting lustily about the "New World Order," a dangerous, all-encompassing cabal of international leaders he claims are secretly releasing plagues upon the world from which they can profit. Kyrie Irving just posted a video clip entitled “Never Forget - Alex Jones Tried To Warn Us” with Jones claiming back in 2002 that a “New World Order” would release “plagues upon us…” pic.twitter.com/sz2Ps7Fbrn — Tommy Beer (@TommyBeer) … [Read more...] about NBA star Kyrie Irving under fire for sharing ‘Alex Jones tried to warn us’ video

A Texas state judge on Friday moved to shield a larger group of families from a directive by Gov. Greg Abbott (R) that ordered state officials to investigate parents and guardians who sought gender-affirming health care for their transgender children, but an immediate appeal by the state allowed the child-abuse probes to continue. The injunction issued by Judge Amy Clark Meachum of the Travis County District Court temporarily blocked the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services from "implementing or enforcing" an agency rule, which stemmed from Abbott's directive, against members of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG), an LGBTQ organization that sued the state over the policy. The injunction additionally shielded Adam and Amber Briggle, who also sued after DFPS launched an investigation into the family over their teenage transgender son. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) immediately appealed the injunction, which allowed DFPS to continue … [Read more...] about Texas appeals after court blocks some transgender child welfare probes

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 5 The day after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered the state's Department of Family and Protective Services to "conduct a prompt and thorough investigation" of families with transgender children, the first case came up, and Morgan Davis's name was on it. Davis was one of four investigators on a Travis County unit tasked with reviewing claims of child abuse. Usually, he and his colleagues took cases on a rotation. Davis was next in line. That evening, a Wednesday in late February, his supervisor called and relayed the basic facts. A mandated reporter - by law, any licensed professional who works directly with children - had turned in a family outside of Austin because they'd allowed their teenager to live as a girl. Under the governor's order, someone had to investigate the family for child abuse. Davis's supervisor told him she knew working the case might feel difficult. … [Read more...] about He came out as trans. Then Texas had him investigate parents of trans kids.
