The down wing dry fly style is a perfect match for one of the most ubiquitous insects found in trout rivers across the planet: caddis. The down wing platform is also a first choice for matching many terrestrials, like moths and hoppers, and it finds it's way to stonefly patterns as well.But for this discussion, we cover the down wing and its progression into fly boxes, by looking at three standouts: the Elk Hair Caddis, the X-Caddis and the CDC & Elk. Because the arrival of each of these patterns brought forth major innovations to the world of dry flies. All three of these are down wings, but they are very different players on the water.The down wing, like all of these dry fly platforms, is a structural philosophy. There are reasons for having a wing that lays flat rather than stands up. The down wing is a canvas to be creative with. It starts with a wing that angles back.  Then, materials used for the undercarriage dictate how the fly behaves on the surface, along with where, when and how we expect trout to respond.My good friend, Bill Dell, joins me for a thorough look at another of our favorite fly platforms.ResourcesPODCAST: Troutbitten | Fly Tying - Essential Tools and More (S17 Ep9)READ: Troutbitten | Pattern vs PresentationPODCAST: Troutbitten | Fishing Dry Flies - Dry Fly Skills Series  (S12)VisitTroutbitten WebsiteTroutbitten InstagramTroutbitten YouTubeTroutbitten FacebookThanks to TroutRoutes:Use the code TROUTBITTEN for 20% off your membership athttps://maps.troutroutes.com Thanks to SkwalaUse the code, TROUTBITTEN10 for 10% off your order athttps://skwalafishing.com/

There's a long-held idea that autism is more prevalent in boys than girls—the CDC says it's three times as common. But a growing body of research suggests the reality is more complicated. In a new study, researchers tracked autism diagnoses in millions of Swedish people born from 1985 to 2022. They found that the prevalence of autism is actually pretty even across the sexes, but people with “female” stamped on their birth certificate are often diagnosed later in life.  Host Flora Lichtman speaks with epidemiologist Caroline Fyfe about what this study teaches us about the prevalence of autism. Then, psychology researcher Rachel Moseley, an autistic woman herself, shares how late and missed diagnoses can affect autistic people. Guests: Dr. Caroline Fyfe is an epidemiologist at the University of Edinburgh who studied sex differences in autism diagnoses.  Dr. Rachel Moseley is a researcher in psychology at Bournemouth University in the UK, studying the experiences of autistic adults.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Eight skiers have been found dead, and one is still missing, a day after an avalanche hit the Sierra Nevada near Lake Tahoe. The sheriff's office says six survivors were rescued with “various injuries,” two of whom were transported to the hospital for treatment.In the largest military buildup yet in the Middle East, President Donald Trump is sending the USS Gerald R. Ford to the Mediterranean, along with a large fleet of fighter jets and aerial refueling tankers. This comes as negotiations between the United States and Iran continue, with Trump making his demands clear to the Iranian regime—no nuclear weapons and stop killing anti-regime protesters.The director of the National Institutes of Health is taking on an additional role. According to the White House on Wednesday, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya will serve as acting director of the CDC until a permanent nominee is confirmed.

Few issues have tested public trust in medicine as deeply as vaccines, and few individuals have influenced that dialogue more than Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a longtime member of the FDA's Vaccine Advisory Committee. In this timely and candid interview with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Offit points to this year's severe flu season and a resurgence of measles as alarming proof points of how a changing federal perspective on vaccine policy is having a real impact on public health. “You'd like to think you can educate about the importance of vaccines, but I fear at this point the viruses themselves are doing the educating.” In this wide ranging discussion, Dr. Offit also addresses: The rigorous and painstaking process of developing vaccines, based on his experience co-inventing the rotavirus vaccine. Shifting levels of public trust in scientific organizations. Promising innovations in vaccine development. Don't miss this deeply-informed perspective on the interplay of science, policy, and public education, and his encouraging message to young clinicians about managing the current challenges in public health.  Mentioned in this episode: Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of PhiladelphiaPerelman School of Medicine If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Trump sought $163 billion in cuts, including slashing the EPA by 54 percent, HUD by 44 percent, and the CDC by 41 percent, but even his most loyal House allies let the effort stall under the cover of the budget process. A separate bipartisan attempt to shore up Obamacare subsidies for 24 million Americans also fizzled, with Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick warning that letting them lapse would be bad policy and worse politics. The throughline is inertia: Congress will not enact maximalist right-wing cuts, but it will not pass incremental fixes either.

What do infection prevention in dialysis clinics and hurricane response in the Caribbean have in common? More than you might think. This episode explores how culture, leadership, and coordination shape health outcomes, whether in a treatment chair or a disaster zone. First, Shalini Nair, a Senior Analyst of Infection Disease at ASTHO, breaks down the growing concern around dialysis-related infections and what the CDC's Making Dialysis Safer for Patients Coalition is doing to address it. She shares frontline-informed strategies that health departments and facilities can use right now: building a “see it, say it” culture of safety, using short, role-specific training and real-time coaching, and ensuring visible leadership support that reinforces infection prevention as everyone's responsibility.  Then, the focus shifts to disaster response with Maggie Nilz, Senior Analyst of preparedness at ASTHO and Team Rubicon, a veteran-led humanitarian organization. Nilz reflects on her decade of deployments, from chainsaw operations in U.S. disaster zones to coordinating international health response in Jamaica after a devastating hurricane. She explains how public health leadership, interagency coordination, and pre-disaster data systems are critical when hospitals are damaged, infrastructure is down, and communities still need everyday healthcare.

The Hidden Dose, a special episode of Flavors and KnowledgePicture this: It's a chilly February afternoon in Providence, Rhode Island, and you're wheeling your cart down the bright aisles of your local grocery store. The meat section stretches out ahead—rows of chicken breasts, ground beef, pork chops, all wrapped neatly and labeled with promises of freshness.But as your hand hovers over that familiar package, a question nags at you: What's really in this? Beyond the visible cuts, there's an invisible legacy: antibiotics fed to these animals throughout their lives. You're not alone in wondering. Millions of us are asking the same thing: How does routine antibiotic use in livestock impact our health, the environment, and the terrifying rise of superbugs?Let's pull back the curtain on what's happening in farms, stores, and restaurants across the U.S.—and give you the facts to shop and eat smarter.It all begins on the farm. Most of America's meat, poultry, and dairy comes from large-scale industrial operations.For decades, antibiotics—many of the very same ones doctors prescribe to us—have been routine here. Not just to treat sick animals, but mixed into feed or water to prevent disease in those crowded conditions, and even to make animals grow faster. The downside? It supercharges antibiotic resistance. Bacteria evolve, survive drug treatment, and suddenly infections in people become much harder—or even impossible—to treat.The CDC estimates that at least 2.8 million Americans deal with antibiotic-resistant infections each year, leading to over 35,000 deaths. A huge chunk of that resistance links back to overuse in agriculture, which still accounts for roughly 70% of medically important antibiotics sold in the U.S.Things are shifting, but not always in the right direction. Recent numbers are concerning: In 2024, sales of these important antibiotics for livestock jumped 16%—the biggest yearly spike since tracking began in 2011. Total sales hit nearly 7.1 million kilograms. Swine accounted for 43%, cattle for 41%, turkeys for 11%, and chickens for only 4%. That's progress in poultry, but the overall rise points to disease outbreaks, bigger herds, and continued preventive use.Globally, experts project livestock antibiotic use could climb another 30% by 2040 if nothing changes. And this isn't just a farm problem—it's a human health crisis.Regulations have stepped in. Since 2017, the FDA has banned antibiotics used solely for growth promotion and requires vet oversight for medically important antibiotics. USDA testing ensures no antibiotic residues remain in the meat or milk you buy. But that doesn't stop routine use earlier in the animal's life, where resistance builds.Some states like California go further, limiting preventive use and making grocery chains report on suppliers. Nationally, though, usage intensity is still nearly double Europe's.Now, let's bring it home to the grocery store. Chains like Walmart, Costco, and Kroger carry both conventional and antibiotic-free options. Hunt for labels like "Raised Without Antibiotics" or "No Antibiotics Ever"—these mean no antibiotics were used (with rare exceptions, such as day-old chicks in some poultry cases). Some states, like California, go further, limiting preventive use and making grocery chains report on suppliers.USDA Organic takes it higher: It prohibits almost all antibiotics, requires third-party audits, ensures better welfare, and prohibits synthetic pesticides. Brands like Applegate, Coleman Natural, and Perdue make these easy to find. Demand is growing—antibiotic-free meat sales surged years ago, and organic sales continue to trend up. New 2026 certifications add trustworthy third-party audits to fight greenwashing.But watch out: Phrases like "No Growth-Promoting Antibiotics" can still allow preventive doses, so they don't fully tackle resistance.Read the Full Content Subscribe to the FK Newsletter Free SimVal Media, USA

This episode features a conversation with Isuru Vidanage, the Wine Buyer at Elemental Spirts Co. in Atlanta, GA. Born in Houston, TX to Sri Lankan immigrants, Isuru went to high school in Macon, GA and later moved to Atlanta for college. He earned a degree in Biology with a distinction in Biochemistry and Evolutionary Biology and Behavior followed by working at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the Organic and Analytical Toxicology Branch. We talk about his work and how his team's focus was on understanding how populations within the U.S. and abroad were being exposed to pesticides. He talks about how he ultimately left the CDC to pursue other passions, and he ultimately found his way to the world of retail wine. You'll hear his insights about the Atlanta wine scene and how his love for community, culture, and cooking are helping to elevate his own wine education – I even challenge him to dream up who he would invite to a bucket list dinner party. You can follow @elementalspirits.co on Instagram to learn more about his work and see what wines he is showcasing at the shop.Recorded February 10, 2026 -----------------*** Check out our ⁠⁠MERCH SHOP⁠⁠ to directly support the show, and visit www.acorkintheroad.com for all upcoming events and press releases

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Shield AI and Taiwan's NCSIST team up on AI drones Taiwan's National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology and American defense company Shield A-I have signed a contract to advance the development of AI-piloted unmanned systems. The systems are reportedly capable of continuing operations in compromised communications environments. According to Shield AI President Brandon Tseng, the partnership will enable (使…能夠) drone forces being produced in Taiwan to include cutting-edge AI pilots that will allow the U-A-V's to operate while G-P-S and communications are jammed. Shield AI last year announced a teaming agreement with Taiwan's state-backed Aerospace Industrial Development Corporation and opened a new office at the Taipei 101. CDC reporting first measles case this year after Vietnam trip The Centers for Disease Control is reporting Taiwan's first measles case of this year. According to the C-D-C, the case involves an eight-month-old baby boy who lives in northern Taiwan, who traveled with his family to Vietnam and returned in late January. The boy developed a fever, a persistent (持續的) cough and other symptoms in early February and was hospitalized last Friday after developing a rash. The C-D-C says the infant's family members and 395 others suspected contacts are now being monitored. They will continue to be monitored until February 28. The C-D-C has issued measles travel alerts for Vietnam, Indonesia, India, Angora, Mexico, Yemen and Pakistan, and placed 30 other countries on its watch list. Health authorities are advising parents to ensure their young children receive their measles, mumps and rubella vaccine. US Trump Administration to Wind Down Immigration Surge in Minnesota The Trump administration says it will end its immigration enforcement (執行) operation in the state of Minnesota, claiming the state is now safer because of their work. This comes after the deaths of at least two people, both shot by immigration or federal border agents. Mitch McCann reports: UNICEF: Haiti Armed Groups Increasingly Recruiting Children UNICEF says that the recruitment of children by armed groups in Haiti tripled last year as poverty and violence deepens across the troubled Caribbean country. The surge reported Thursday comes as gang violence displaces a record 1.4 million people across Haiti. More than half of them are children whom experts say are left exposed and vulnerable (易受傷害的; 易受攻擊的). The U.N. estimates that 30% to 50% of members of armed groups are children, with recruiting (招募) starting as young as 9 years old. UNICEF's representative in Haiti, said boys generally act as spies, carry ammunition and weapons while girls often face sexual violence and are tasked with domestic work. France Prosecutors Investigating Ticketing Fraud at Louvre Paris prosecutors say police are detaining nine people in an investigation into a long-running ticket fraud scheme at the Louvre museum. Prosecutors say the arrests happened on Tuesday. The museum had filed a complaint in December 2024. Investigators found tour guides repeatedly reuse the same tickets for different visitors. Prosecutors say guides also split groups to avoid a required speaking fee. Two Louvre employees allegedly helped skipping (略過) ticket checks in exchange for cash. The prosecutors' office estimates losses top 10 million euros over a decade. Prosecutors also mentioned similar suspicions regarding a ticket fraud at the Palace of Versailles, without providing details. That was the I.C.R.T.

Mary Beth Pfeiffer, the pioneering investigative journalist who transformed national understanding of Lyme disease, joins the Tick Boot Camp Podcast for a landmark conversation. Before her work, Lyme disease was widely dismissed as rare, mild, and easily treated. After her reporting, that narrative collapsed. Through her award-winning journalism and her groundbreaking book Lyme: The First Epidemic of Climate Change, she became the first major voice to expose the truth: Lyme disease is a global, climate-driven epidemic that is chronically misdiagnosed, dangerously underestimated, and systematically mishandled by mainstream medicine. In this interview, Mary Beth shares how her earlier investigative work on mental illness in U.S. jails prepared her to recognize patterns of institutional failure within the Lyme disease system. For decades, she documented how people with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia were misunderstood, punished, or dismissed by the very institutions meant to protect them. When she turned her attention to Lyme in 2012, she immediately recognized the same dynamic: patients with neurological and psychiatric manifestations were told they were anxious, depressed, or “crazy,” rather than infected. Families were blamed, symptoms were minimized, and children were left to suffer. Her background gave her a rare lens into how biological illness becomes mislabeled as psychological and how systems silence the very people who need help. Mary Beth explains how her investigative series for the Poughkeepsie Journal went viral worldwide, surprising even her editors. Her reporting was read in all 50 states and across Europe and Australia, prompting the CDC to contact her directly. She details what she uncovered through Freedom of Information Act requests, including internal emails between NIH and CDC officials referring to patients as “Lyme loonies” and framing the situation as a “war” against advocates. These documents revealed attitudes inside the highest levels of public health that shaped decades of policy, diagnostic guidelines, and patient care. The conversation dives into how a small group of early Lyme researchers defined the disease in the 1980s and then used their influence to control medical journals, shape NIH grant funding, and enforce rigid IDSA treatment guidelines. As Mary Beth explains, these early assumptions—often based on limited data and flawed antibody tests—became dogma. Their conclusions created an ecosystem where only short-course antibiotics were considered acceptable, chronic symptoms were dismissed, and doctors who treated beyond the guidelines were punished by medical boards. The result was a generation of patients abandoned by the system, forced to self-fund care, travel to distant specialists, and in many cases bankrupt themselves in search of answers. Mary Beth discusses how patients became her greatest teachers. She shares emotional stories, including children who lost years of their lives, athletes whose careers were derailed, and an 11-year-old boy misdiagnosed for so long he ended up in a hospital bed in his living room before finally being rescued by Dr. Charles Ray Jones. She describes support groups filled with people who had seen five, ten, or fifteen doctors and were told their symptoms were anxiety, depression, or “anything but Lyme.” The interview covers the scientific evidence supporting Lyme persistence, including animal studies, autopsy tissue findings, and molecular research showing Borrelia surviving standard treatment. Mary Beth explains why the two-tier antibody test has failed generations of patients, why indirect antibody tests are inherently flawed for immune-dysregulated populations, and why the future of accurate diagnosis depends on direct detection methods. She highlights emerging technologies, including promising work by Aces Diagnostics and Researcher Holly Ahern, which may finally offer accurate testing across all stages of infection. The conversation moves into the larger systemic problem: how money, insurance policies, medical boards, industry influence, and journal gatekeeping have shaped what doctors are allowed to do. Mary Beth and the Tick Boot Camp team explore why clinicians who try to help chronic Lyme patients often lose insurance coverage, face board complaints, or have their licenses threatened. They discuss how electronic monitoring, AI systems, and corporate-owned medical practices further restrict doctors from practicing individualized, patient-centered medicine. The second half of the interview focuses on the environmental drivers behind the explosion of Lyme disease. Mary Beth explains how warming temperatures, shorter winters, and ecological fragmentation have created ideal habitats for ticks. She describes how ticks have climbed mountains, expanded into higher latitudes, colonized suburban landscapes, and gained longer active seasons. These environmental changes, combined with human development patterns, have dramatically increased opportunities for exposure. She also addresses public interest in the bioweapons question raised by Chris Newby's book Bitten, explaining why historical documentation and FOIA evidence convinced her that military tick experiments occurred, even if their impact on today's epidemic is still unknown. The episode closes with Mary Beth's reflections on prevention, vigilance, and the psychological cost of losing the innocence of nature. She describes how she now sees fields, forests, and even yards differently and why she teaches her grandchildren to treat nature with both respect and caution. She shares her hope for the future: better diagnostics, more independent research, journalists willing to challenge medical orthodoxy, and a cultural shift that frees doctors to practice real medicine rather than rigid algorithms. This interview is essential listening for anyone affected by Lyme disease, anyone questioning why chronic illness is so often dismissed, and anyone seeking to understand how climate change, medical politics, and investigative journalism intersect in one of the most important health crises of our time.

Is Dr. Mike IGNORING SCIENCE ON PURPOSE!? Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh joins Brian Nichols to reveal the uncomfortable truth about childhood vaccines and why the collapse of public health trust is happening right now. We dive deep into the data that mainstream influencers like Dr. Mike ignore, specifically regarding the "one-size-fits-all" CDC schedule and the lack of studies on vaccinated vs. unvaccinated children. Dr. Gator explains why the medical establishment's refusal to debate—or even acknowledge—valid parental concerns about side effects and the sheer volume of shots is driving families away from modern medicine entirely. We expose the reality of informed consent and the financial incentives keeping the system broken. You need to hear this blueprint for navigating your child's health without fear or coercion.

Is Dr. Mike IGNORING SCIENCE ON PURPOSE!? Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh joins Brian Nichols to reveal the uncomfortable truth about childhood vaccines and why the collapse of public health trust is happening right now. We dive deep into the data that mainstream influencers like Dr. Mike ignore, specifically regarding the "one-size-fits-all" CDC schedule and the lack of studies on vaccinated vs. unvaccinated children. Dr. Gator explains why the medical establishment's refusal to debate—or even acknowledge—valid parental concerns about side effects and the sheer volume of shots is driving families away from modern medicine entirely. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS We expose the reality of informed consent and the financial incentives keeping the system broken.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they weigh in on anti-ICE high school protests, the discovery of yet another Chinese-linked bio lab in the United States, and a bizarre Republican primary challenge featuring a familiar infomercial pitchman.First, they dig into the case of a Nebraska mother who says her daughter was struck by a vehicle during an anti-ICE protest that took place during school hours. She alleges the high school not only allowed the walkout and failed to protect her daughter but used class time to prepare students for it. Jim and Greg debate the responsibility of teachers and administrators to keep students safe, why left-approved protests are treated differently, and how protests should be handled at the high school level.Next, they react to the alarming news that another bio lab with ties to the Chinese Communist Party was discovered and raided near Las Vegas. Jim and Greg walk through the disturbing details of the lab and explain why the United States needs a far more serious approach to the national security threats posed by China.Finally, they look ahead to congressional primary season with the eyebrow-raising news that Vince, the ShamWow infomercial pitchman, is running for Congress as a Republican in Texas against an incumbent GOP lawmaker. Vince is unlikely to win but Jim struggles to figure out what supposedly makes this guy even remotely qualified to serve in Congress.Please visit our great sponsors:Skip the hassle and book a top-rated doctor in seconds with Zocdoc.
