Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how over the next 40 hours, the Rangers on Hill 400 withstood five major Germancounterattacks and a relentless artillery barrage. Fifteen battalions of German artillery conducted "time on target" missions, raining shells down so fast they were described as "belt-fed." Tree bursts were particularly lethal, showering the men in foxholes with shrapnel and large wooden splinters. The Rangers, reduced to only 40 effective men, fought with desperate intensity, using their own weapons and captured German MP40s to repel elite Volk Grenadiers and paratroopers. When Lomell suggested surrendering to save the wounded, the men universally refused, choosing to fight to the death. The hill was eventually secured when Duke Slater led a makeshift reinforcement platoon of mortar teams and any available personnel up the slope, finally breaking the German will. From the top of Hill 400, the Rangers observed massive movements of German troops and equipment, but their reports were ignored by a chain of command that failed to connect the dots. Consequently, the Germans achieved complete surprise when they launched the Battle of the Bulgeon December 16. While the Rangers moved to the "Northern Shoulder" to help stem the German tide, Len Lomell was rotated back to the United States, having been severely wounded during the Hill 400 defense. The Battle for Hill 400remains a testament to the Rangers' resilience, even though the intelligence they secured could have changed the course of the winter campaign. (7)1944
Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts how between 7:20 and 8:00 a.m., the Rangers began their assault using rocket-propelled grappling hooks to fire wet ropes up the 90-foot cliffs. The climb was conducted under intense fire from German MG42machine guns and "potato masher" hand grenades lobbed from above. Sergeant Len Lomell was shot through the side during the ascent but continued to the summit, which he described as looking like the cratered surface of the moon due to the preceding bombardments. The Rangers utilized the craters and ruins for cover, fighting through a maze of tunnels and bunkers against defenders who remained entrenched in an underground labyrinth. Upon reaching the designated casemates, the Rangers discovered the Germans had moved the massive guns to an apple orchard 700 yards inland, leaving telephone poles in their place as decoys. Acting on his own initiative, Lomell followed tire tracks leading away from the casemates and discovered the guns hidden under nets in the orchard. Remarkably, the German gun crews were assembled nearby, listening to an officer's orders and leaving the weapons briefly unguarded. Lomell and Sergeant Jack Kuhn used thermite grenades to melt the gears of the guns, rendering them inoperable. Through the efforts of these two men, the primary objective of the entire D-Day mission was accomplished, succeeding where hundreds of bombers and heavy naval guns had failed. (3)1944
Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how the assault on Hill 400 on December 7, 1944, was characterized by surviving Rangers as their "longest day," surpassing even D-Day in intensity. Before the attack, Len Lomell conducted a reconnaissance patrol, determining that the only viable path to the summit was a straight frontal assault across an open field the size of a football stadium. Tensions rose when a new officer ordered a scout into the field in broad daylight; the man was immediately shot, enraging the seasoned Rangers who viewed the order as a suicide mission. When the signal for the main assault was finally given, Dog and Fox companies sprang from a sunken road like a "coiled spring." Approximately 120 Rangers charged across the open field with fixed bayonets, screaming "rebel yells" and shouting "Hi-Ho Silver" to intimidate the defenders. They ran directly into the teeth of MG42 fire, bayonetting and shooting Germansas they stormed up the steep incline. The speed and ferocity of the charge overwhelmed the German defenders at the base and on the slopes. Upon reaching the summit, the Rangers captured a massive observation bunker and immediately began digging shallow foxholes to prepare for the inevitable counterattacks. Though they had taken the hill, they remained unaware of its true significance to the German High Command or the scale of the firestorm that was about to descend upon them. (6)1944

(15) Peter Huessy discusses the confirmation by the U.S. government that China conducted recent underground nuclear tests. Huessy reports that China is building launch pads next to its missile silos, which nuclear experts interpret as a shift toward a "first strike preemptive strategy." This strategy is designed to use a nuclear umbrella to coerce the U.S. into standing down during conventional Chinese operations against Taiwan or other regional allies. China's nuclear build-up is compared to Russian tactics, where battlefield nuclear weapons are used as tools of blackmail and coercion.MAY 1953 ATOMIC CANNON LAS VEGAS

In Plato and the Tyrant, James Romm explains that Plato, born approximately 428 BCE, was deeply influenced by the 30 Tyrants of Athens, a regime involving his cousin Critias that conducted a reign of terror. After the execution of his teacher, Socrates, Plato developed a philosophy centered on a world of eternal forms, which are perfect realities beyond sensory perception. Plato visited Syracuse in 385 BCE, drawn by Dion, the ruler's brother-in-law, who shared Plato'sdisdain for the city's riotous living. This first visit was a colossal failure, as Dionysius the Elder dismissed Plato with dishonor for advocating ethical behavior. (2/8)1800 PLATO

A large-scale analysis of Grokipedia, the world's first AI-written encyclopedia, has found that while many Grokipedia articles closely resemble their Wikipedia counterparts, a substantial subset diverged markedly in style, sourcing, and political leaning. Conducted by researchers at Trinity College Dublin and Technological University Dublin, the study compared nearly 18,000 of the most-edited English-language Wikipedia pages with articles on the same topic on the new Grokipedia platform. The study is the largest academic analysis of Grokipedia since it was launched by Elon Musk last October with a promise that the AI-written encyclopedia systematically "fixes" left-leaning biases alleged to exist in the widely used online encyclopedia Wikipedia. Wikipedia's content is written and maintained by volunteer editors, while Grokipedia is an AI-generated encyclopedia using the xAI's Grok large language model. What did the study find? Using computational text analysis and machine learning methods, the team analysed articles on the same topic across Wikipedia and Grokipedia. Selection of topics was based on Wikipedia's most-edited English-language pages. The team compared differences in writing style, structure, and the political orientation of external sources referenced in the paired articles. The researchers found a profound split – while many Grokipedia articles closely mirror Wikipedia, a substantial proportion (66%) of the 18,000 analysed are more extensively rewritten – they are longer, more complex, and rely on fewer references. As a whole, articles on Grokipedia show similar political leaning to those on Wikipedia, drawing on left-leaning news sources. However, when it comes to the politically and culturally sensitive topics of religion, history, literature and art, Grokipedia shows a consistent shift toward referencing more right-leaning news sources compared to Wikipedia. The study analysed Wikipedia's most-edited English-language pages, a selection that likely overrepresents high-profile and contentious topics. That said the study, according to the authors, provides useful evidence of emerging differences between AI-generated and human-edited encyclopedic knowledge systems. Details of the research, conducted at the joint Centre for Sociology of Humans and Machines (SOHAM) in Trinity and TU Dublin, have been published in the peer-reviewed journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). What is the impact of this research? Lead author of the study, Saeedeh Mohammadi, PhD candidate at SOHAM and Research Ireland's Centre for Research Training in Foundations of Data Science said: "Online encyclopedias are central to public knowledge. They are also being used to train future generations of large language models. Our findings raise important questions about how public knowledge is produce, reproduced, verified, and governed. "Unlike Wikipedia, where biases are visible and contested through human editing, AI-generated systems operate largely opaquely. This means shifts in perspective or sourcing may occur without clear accountability or editorial oversight. Simply put AI generation does not remove bias – it changes how and where bias enters the system, often making it less visible." Professor Taha Yasseri Director of SOHAM and Principal Investigator of the study said: "Rather than systematically 'correcting' Wikipedia's alleged biases, as claimed when first launched, our findings suggest that AI-generated encyclopedias such as Grokipedia selectively reshape existing knowledge. This creates a patchwork system in which some content is copied, while other content is reinterpreted in ways that are less transparent and harder to scrutinise." "There is a dire need for transparency, oversight, and regulation in this space. Our information landscape is changing rapidly. We have already seen how the lack of editorial responsibility on social media platforms has enabled the generation and circulation of misinformation and ...

India's largest medical entrance examination, NEET, is once again at the centre of a national discussion. Conducted for more than 20 lakh aspirants in a single sitting, the exam represents one of the biggest logistical exercises in India's education system involving the printing, transport and storage of millions of physical question papers across thousands of centres. For years, the National Testing Agency defended the single-shift pen-and-paper format as the “fairest” method of assessment. But recurring allegations of paper leaks and organised cheating networks have raised serious questions about whether the very scale of the system has now become its biggest vulnerability. Following the cancellation of NEET-UG 2026 and the announcement of a re-examination, the Union Education Minister has said the exam will shift to a fully computer-based format from next year. But will CBT actually solve the deeper structural problems behind examination leaks? Is India prepared for a transition of this scale? And why do students continue to bear the emotional burden of institutional failures? In this episode, we unpack these questions and examine the growing debate around examination security, public trust, accountability and the future of high-stakes testing in India.

Matthew Shindell discusses the Islamic Renaissance, noting that scholars in Baghdad and Damascus conducted rigorous scientific observations while Western Europe possessed only fragmented ancient knowledge. This era's large-scale translation movement and original astronomical research eventually fueled the later European Renaissance. Shindellalso analyzes Dante Alighieri's reinterpretation of Mars in the Divine Comedy, where the planet represents a celestial sphere of virtue. Moving beyond traditional associations with war, Dante portrays Mars as a symbol of fortitude and holy martyrdom. This literary shift connected the red planet to the sacrifice of Christ and his followers. (2/4)1917 Burroughs

വെളിപ്പാടു 21:3 സിംഹാസനത്തിൽനിന്നു ഒരു മഹാശബ്ദം പറയുന്നതായി ഞാൻ കേട്ടതു: ഇതാ, മനുഷ്യരോടുകൂടെ ദൈവത്തിന്റെ കൂടാരം; അവൻ അവരോടുകൂടെ വസിക്കും; അവർ അവന്റെ ജനമായിരിക്കും; ദൈവം താൻ അവരുടെ ദൈവമായി അവരോടുകൂടെ ഇരിക്കും.
Craig Unger explains the infrastructure of the alleged treason, focusing on the Safari Club, a group of high-level intelligence officials who conducted "off-the-books" operations after the CIA faced congressional crackdowns in the 1970s. Bill Casey utilized this shadow network, employing his close friend John Shaheen as a "cutout" to facilitate meetings with Iranian arms dealers without attracting media attention. Unger reveals that the Hashemi brothers, who were ostensibly helping the Carter administration negotiate for the hostages, were actually double agents working for Casey. This covert channel was further supported by Israeli military intelligence (Aman), which confirmed that source Ari Ben-Menashe was indeed an operative and that a secret arms channel existed between Israel and Iran. Unger argues that Israel's participation in sabotaging the American election was a significant secret they went to great lengths to hide. The operation reportedly involved money laundering through front businesses to finance the illegal arms deals. (5/8)1920 BUSHEHR

Japanese authorities likely carried out a yen-buying currency market intervention during the Golden Week holiday period earlier this month, it was learned Thursday.
Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss new data from a pre-specified expanded dataset analysis of the company's Phase 2 SKNJCT-003 clinical trial, highlighting a positive dose-response relationship for its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array in the treatment of nodular basal cell carcinoma, the most common form of skin cancer. Bokhari explained that the additional analysis builds on previously reported positive topline results, offering deeper biological, histologic, and safety insights that further strengthen the therapeutic profile of the company's SkinJect platform. He noted that the findings are consistent with earlier clinical data, including results from the Phase 1 SKNJCT-001 study conducted in 2021 and interim Phase 2 data reported in March 2025, reinforcing the reproducibility and reliability of the treatment approach across multiple studies. The SKNJCT-003 trial was designed as a randomized, double-blind, three-arm Phase 2 study evaluating two different dose levels of microneedle-delivered doxorubicin compared to a device-only control. Conducted across multiple clinical sites, the study enrolled approximately 90 patients diagnosed with nodular basal cell carcinoma, aiming to assess both safety and efficacy in a controlled setting. According to Bokhari, the expanded dataset—verified through centralized pathology review—provides a clearer and more clinically meaningful picture of treatment outcomes. Among the cohorts, the 200-microgram dose at Day 57 emerged as the most promising, demonstrating the strongest and most consistent efficacy signal. These results suggest that the treatment may offer a non-surgical alternative for certain patients, potentially reducing or delaying the need for immediate excision of cancerous lesions. Such an approach could represent a meaningful shift in the standard treatment paradigm for BCC, particularly given the relatively short treatment and evaluation window used in the study. Bokhari added that the data package could support future registration-focused discussions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), including considerations around optimal dosing, patient selection, lesion subtype, and treatment timelines. The company believes these findings position SkinJect as a potentially innovative and practical therapeutic option in the dermatologic oncology space. #proactiveinvestors #nasdaq #mdcx #tsxv #mdcx #pharma #SkinJect #ClinicalTrials #Phase2 #Biotech #Dermatology #SkinCancer #BasalCellCarcinoma #Microneedle #DrugDelivery #Oncology #MedicalInnovation #Healthcare #FDA #Biopharma

A new report from Washington state reveals a pervasive issue of workplace harm affecting Black women. Conducted by the Washington State Women's Commission and Blacks United in Leadership & Diversity, the survey found that nearly every Black woman reported experiencing microaggressions, exclusion, and barriers to advancement, despite their qualifications and commitment to public service. This finding emerges amidst a period where over 300,000 Black women nationwide have lost their jobs, often coinciding with the rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Ayanna Colman, Chief Human Resources Officer for the Office of Administrative Hearings, shares more about the report on this episode of the Rythm & News Podcast. Interview by Chris B. Bennett.

In this episode, we tackle a critical and often unsettling subject of the history of racial ethics in healthcare. This discussion is not just about looking back at the past, but about understanding how historical injustices continue to influence present-day healthcare practices and perceptions. The history of racial ethics in healthcare is complex and fraught with ethical breaches that have left deep scars in communities, particularly among African Americans. Perhaps one of the most infamous examples is the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. Conducted between 1932 and 1972, this study involved hundreds of African American men who were misled and denied proper treatment for syphilis. This egregious violation of ethical standards was justified at the time by prevailing racist ideologies that dehumanized Black individuals and viewed them as suitable subjects for experimentation.

Recent survey released today claims 19.3 million Americans, roughly 8% of American citizens , admit to wanting to shoot someone. The “survey” breaks down by category who the respondents claim to want to shoot including family members, strangers, politicians, etc. Conducted by UM in Michigan and released to JAMA, Mark calls bullshit…but disturbing nonetheless.
Why Me?: The Brain on Tilt by Dr David Arthur Kent https://www.amazon.com/Why-Me-David-Arthur-Kent/dp/B0FZSF5PW4 Davidkentauthor.com This book provides a comprehensive overview of mental illness, emphasizing that these conditions are biological and medical in nature, not signs of weakness or moral failings. It focuses heavily on evidence-based treatment, detailing how recovery is possible for conditions ranging from depression and OCD to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, often through a combination of medication, psychotherapy (such as CBT, DBT, and ERP), and innovative biological interventions like TMS and ECT. A critical theme is the essential role of family support and education in improving outcomes and reducing relapse rates, alongside the need to combat stigma which remains a major barrier to seeking timely and effective help. The book illustrates these concepts through detailed case studies of individuals managing chronic illnesses successfully, redefining recovery as functional improvement rather than chasing a complete cure.

In this groundbreaking episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, we interview Dr. Jayakumar Rajadas, a Stanford Medicine researcher who has discovered multiple breakthrough therapeutic candidates for Lyme disease, Babesia, and Bartonella. His work includes the discovery of Disulfiram's effectiveness against Lyme and Babesia, Azlocillin's potent activity against Lyme and Bartonella, and advanced targeted drug-delivery systems designed to preserve the gut microbiome. Dr. Jay's research has been featured in TIME Magazine (Azlocillin) and Forbes (Disulfiram), and connects deeply with the work of leading Lyme researchers, including Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane), Dr. Kim Lewis (Northeastern), Dr. Kenneth Liegner, and Dr. Brian Fallon (Columbia University). This interview delivers hope, science, and unprecedented detail on what may become the next generation of Lyme disease treatments. Key Topics Covered 1. How the Stanford Tick Initiative Sparked a New Era of Drug Discovery In 2012, Stanford launched a major initiative in response to community demand for better Lyme treatments. Dr. Rajadas was selected to lead drug development, focusing specifically on persistent/chronic Lyme disease, where few researchers were working. 2. Understanding Borrelia: Active vs. Stationary Forms & Why Chronic Lyme Persists Dr. J explains the three key survival modes of Borrelia burgdorferi: Active Phase The bacteria are replicating and metabolically active. Easier to kill with standard antibiotics. Stationary Phase Bacteria reach population limits and slow down growth. Represents early persistence mechanisms. Persister Forms Triggered by stressors like antibiotics (e.g., doxycycline). Bacteria fold into round bodies, spiral forms, or compact “cement-like” protective balls. These forms: Shut down metabolic pathways Resist penetration Survive antibiotic exposure Why Doxycycline Can Fail Doxycycline can induce persisters, causing Borrelia to form impenetrable protective shells rather than die. This is why many patients initially feel better, then relapse. 3. Disulfiram (Antabuse): Lyme + Babesia Breakthrough Featured in Forbes One of the biggest scientific shocks of the last decade: Discovery Through Stanford's high-throughput screening of FDA-approved drugs, Disulfiram emerged as a top hit. Clears Borrelia (including persistent forms) Clears Babesia — a major advantage over standard antibiotics Does NOT harm the gut microbiome Is already FDA-approved and widely used for alcohol aversion therapy Highly potent but requires careful dosing due to side effects in inflamed patients. Why Some Patients Improve, and Others Suffer Chronic Lyme patients already have heightened inflammation. Disulfiram is a powerful molecule whose polymorphic forms behave differently in different people. His lab developed: Less toxic formulations Buccal & sublingual delivery systems Rectal delivery options These may reduce neuropsychiatric side effects reported by some patients. Clinical Connections Dr. Kenneth Liegner pioneered clinical use and published cases Dr. Brian Fallon conducted NIH-listed clinical trials. Many clinicians now use Liegner's protocols. Real-world example: Matt shares the story of Brooke Stoddard (Generation Lyme), who regained his life after Disulfiram treatment under Dr. Liegner. 4. Azlocillin: The Antibiotic That TIME Magazine Called a Gamechanger If Disulfiram is the Lyme and Babesia weapon, Azlocillin may be the frontline tool for Lyme and Bartonella. Why Azlocillin Is Revolutionary Eradicates both active and persister forms of Borrelia. Destroys doxycycline-induced “cement ball” persisters by drilling into their vulnerable cell-wall synthesis pathways. Proven effective against Bartonella when paired with azithromycin, based on research by Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane) . The Cell-Wall Vulnerability Breakthrough Persisters STILL must maintain minimal cell-wall synthesis to survive. Azlocillin exploits this tiny vulnerability: It penetrates the protective sphere Breaks the “cement wall” Forces the bacteria out of hibernation Kills them rapidly This discovery is one of the biggest scientific leaps in Lyme research in a decade. The Delivery System That Protects the Gut Microbiome Azlocillin is extremely hydrophilic, making absorption difficult.Dr. Jay fixed this by creating: A magnesium-lipid nanoparticle formulation Designed to release in the upper intestine Avoiding the colon (where most microbiome lives) This allows: High bloodstream absorption Minimal microbiome damage Oral availability of a drug previously only available via IV Why Azlocillin May Be Better Than Disulfiram Hits Borrelia + Bartonella Stronger anti-inflammatory effects No polymorphism issues Fewer side effects Potent against persisters A company is preparing to bring his oral formulation to clinical trials by next year. 5. Loratadine (Claritin): The First Clue from 2012 Before Disulfiram and Azlocillin, Dr. Jay's lab identified Loratadine (Claritin) as a manganese transporter inhibitor of Borrelia. Why it mattered: Borrelia uniquely relies on manganese, not iron. Blocking manganese uptake may weaken the bacteria. The discovery went viral, with many patients reporting improvement even at OTC doses—though the binding affinity was weak. This project introduced the concept of drug repurposing for Lyme to the scientific community. 6. Melittin (Bee Venom) — The Micro-Needle Patch Alternative Bee venom therapy is widely used in the Lyme community, but risks stings and allergic reactions. Dr. J is developing: Melittin micro-needle patches Delivering the active peptide without stinging Using dissolvable, painless needles A safe, controlled, pharmaceutical-grade delivery approach This could modernize bee venom therapy and make it more accessible. 7. Mechanism of Brain Fog & Fatigue in Lyme: A Major Breakthrough Dr. Jay's lab published a neuroscience paper demonstrating: Outer Surface Protein (Osp) Nanoparticles Borrelia sheds lipid-coated outer membrane particles. These form stable nano-vesicles that: Enter the bloodstream Cross into the brain Cause mitochondrial dysfunction Reduce ATP production Result: Brain Fog, Fatigue, Cognitive Dysfunction This explains why neurological Lyme can persist even after bacterial levels drop. This work ties strongly to ongoing research at Columbia University under Dr. Brian Fallon. 8. Collaborations With World Leaders in Lyme Research Dr. J's research intersects with: Dr. Kim Lewis (Northeastern University) Reproduced and validated Disulfiram findings publicly. Helped launch interest in persister-killing therapies. Dr. Monica Embers (Tulane University) Demonstrated Azlocillin + Azithromycin effectiveness against Bartonella. One of the world's foremost experts in persistent infection models. Dr. Kenneth Liegner Early clinical pioneer of Disulfiram therapy. Published stunning recovery cases. Dr. Brian A. Fallon (Columbia University) Leading psychiatrist specializing in post-treatment Lyme. Conducted planned Disulfiram clinical trials. These collaborations form a powerful network accelerating treatment development. 9. New Anti-Inflammatory Discoveries: Galangin & More Dr. Jay recently co-authored a 2025 paper on: Galangin (Thai ginger rhizome extract) Which may reverse cardiac inflammation and fibrosis His team is also exploring other nutraceutical molecules for chronic inflammation relief in Lyme patients. 10. Dr. Jay's Personal Story of Illness and Hope He reveals for the first time: He was diagnosed with Stage 3 Multiple Myeloma Lost the ability to walk Suffered unbearable pain After cutting-edge therapies and research, he is now in full remission His message to Lyme patients: “There is ALWAYS hope.”
