President Trump says he wants to substantially reduce joint military exercises with South Korea because of his very good relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. He says North Korea has been unthreatening and respectful the entire time he's been president and that it's inappropriate and hostile to send a message of strength and unity with our ally South Korea. He also says the move is because South Korea hasn't helped in the war with Iran. Greg and Holly have a lot of concerns with this kind of international political move; they explain.

Siempre se dice que lo difícil no es llegar, sino mantenerse. En mi experiencia, cuando hablamos del estado físico, esto es una realidad absoluta. La mayoría de las personas tienden a darle importancia a su cuerpo solo en momentos puntuales del año: llega el verano y quieren bajar de peso para verse bien, o termina el año y buscan limpiar los excesos de las fiestas. Al final, esto se convierte en una bola de nieve. No solo no estás mejor cada año, sino que vas a peor. Y en el mejor de los casos, si consigues ser fiel a tu «operación bikini», esa mejora te durará lo mismo que el moreno de la playa. Para liberarte de esta jaula y dejar de tratar tu cuerpo como un proyecto temporal de dos veces al año, voy a contarte el método exacto para mantener una buena forma física todo el año. El Primer Paso: Conseguir una Buena Forma Física (De Verdad) Básicamente, para mantener una buena forma física todo el año, lo primero que tienes que hacer es conseguirla. Pero, ¿Qué significa realmente estar en forma? No debes compararte con los físicos irreales de las redes sociales, muchas veces sostenidos por una genética excepcional o sustancias dopantes. En la academia, utilizamos dos marcadores objetivos y estáticos para medir esto: IMC (Índice de Masa Corporal): Relaciona tu peso y tu altura. Aunque es útil, no es totalmente fiable porque no nos dice nada sobre tu composición corporal. ICA (Índice Cintura-Altura): Relaciona el contorno de tu cintura con tu altura. Este marcador es mucho más relevante, ya que tu perímetro abdominal sí es un reflejo fiel de tu composición corporal. Para considerar que tienes una buena forma física, tu IMC óptimo debe estar por debajo de 25 y tu ICA por debajo de 50 (es decir, que tu cintura mida, como mucho, la mitad de tu altura). Fase 1: La Etapa de la Rigidez y el Sacrificio Llegar a esos marcadores es, irónicamente, la parte más fácil y a la vez la más difícil. Es fácil porque cualquiera puede hacer su vida miserable durante unos meses para perder peso, pero es difícil porque mantener esa miseria a largo plazo es inviable. Si quieres mejorar, hay una etapa inicial en la que debes sacrificar ciertas cosas y aprender a decir que no. Tienes que ser bastante estricto con tu alimentación, tus entrenamientos y tu descanso, pero especialmente tu alimentación. En esta fase inicial, debes olvidarte de las «comidas trampa» o los caprichos de fin de semana. Tu cuerpo, si tiene un sobrepeso considerable, no gestiona los excesos igual que un metabolismo optimizado. De hecho, el efecto térmico de los alimentos (las calorías que tu cuerpo gasta en digerir) puede llegar a ser del 25% en una persona con buena forma física, frente al 10% de media en alguien con sobrepeso. Esto significa que una comida libre le supone un 15% menos de calorías netas a una persona que está forma frete a una que no lo esté y que coma exactamente lo mismo. Fase 2: Flexibilidad y Ajustes Una vez que has logrado optimizar tu IMC (

Listen to today's podcast... When it comes to holding hands it's not all about romance.  When you hold the hands of another you are sending the message that the other person is valued, important and noticed. James Coan of the University of Virginia found that when people hold hands, their brains don't work as hard to cope with stress.  To hold someone's hand is to offer them affection, protection or comfort. A poll showed that more than half of people couldn't remember the last time they held their grandparents hand and more than a quarter had never done so. However, almost a fifth of respondents, when asked whose hands they would most like to hold, said it would be the hand of a grandparent who has died. Loneliness and depression are rampant in today's society.  Holding someone's hand, especially of someone who is isolated, dealing with an illness or elderly can help them to be more resilient against the impact of stress, promote better health and combat their feelings of isolation. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency! Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Hand Holding Day: Reach out and touch the hand of someone you love or someone in need.  Not only do they reap the benefit but so do you. Don't wait until it's too late and end up regretting that you didn't grab at the opportunity. Robert Fulgham (Everything I Learned, I Learned In Kindergarten) said: . . . Share everything. . .When you go out in the world, Watch out for traffic, hold hands, And stick together. . . . If you like today's wellness tips, let me know.

Richard Epstein critiques the Smithsonian's "Many Voices, One Nation" exhibit for its "woke" portrayal of American history. He argues the exhibit unfairly reduces Benjamin Franklin to an "alleged racist" while ignoring his foundational contributions. Epstein highlights the complexity of figures like Thomas Jefferson, who authored the Declaration of Independence yet held restrictive views on immigration. The discussion underscores a perceived ideological mono-culture within the history profession that prioritizes narrative over factual nuance. (3)

⚠️ Can Child Support Be Reduced If I Lose My Job? | Los Angeles Divorce Losing a job does not automatically reduce or stop your child support obligation.

Michalis Papadakis, CEO and Co-Founder of Brainomix, is developing AI technology to automate the analysis of brain scans of stroke patients, addressing the critical clinical gap where a majority of patients who should receive treatment are not being identified. The platform identifies stroke location, blocked vessels, and at-risk brain tissue on CT scans, enabling faster diagnosis and treatment decisions by a broader range of front-line clinicians who may lack stroke care expertise. In a large-scale evaluation, Brainomix demonstrated that it can save an hour in reaching treatment decisions and dramatically increase the number of patients who achieve full recovery. Michalis explains, "Brainomix started quite a few years ago now, and, as you noted, I'm one of the founders. And back then, I was the scientific director of the preclinical stroke lab at the University of Oxford here in the UK, doing research in stroke. And together with the other founders, what made us establish Brainomix and create Brainomix as a spinoff from the university was starting with the clinical unmet need. "As we were all experts in stroke, we knew that stroke is a devastating disease. It ages the brain by 3.6 years every hour a patient remains untreated. And although we have lifesaving treatments, up to 80% of patients who should be treated are missing out. And when we created Brainomix, we knew that imaging, which means the interpretation of the brain scan of patients who have strokes, is a barrier that is leading directly to this big number of patients missing out on being selected for treatment." "The idea was that if we used the AI and automated the analysis of the brain scans of those patients, we could help frontline clinicians with diagnosis and treatment decisions. So, since we started, we have been developing a technology that aims to increase the uptake of existing treatments in clinical care, but we are also working with pharma companies and biotech companies that are developing new treatments to increase the success of the trials." #Brainomix #Brainomix360Stroke #StrokeCare #AcuteStroke #StrokeTreatment #Neurology #MedicalImaging #ImagingAI #AIinHealthcare #DigitialHealth #HealthcareInnovation #Neuroradiology #PatientOutcomes #Thrombectomy #DigitalHealth #ClinicalDecisionSupport brainomix.com Download the transcript here

Marathon County is working hard to save energy. In 2025, more than 100 local businesses,manufacturers, schools, hospitals, and farms improved the efficiency of their facilities with supportfrom Focus on Energy.Farming has played a major role in this achievement. Last year, 62 farms in Marathon Countycompleted more than 180 energy-saving projects, resulting in $325,000 in total savings. Theseupgrades help family farms lower costs and stay strong for the future. No Joke Dairy is a fifth-generation family farm in Marathon County that has belonged to the Redetzke family since 1911.

⚠️ Hidden Assets Can Ruin Your Divorce Settlement! | Los Angeles Divorce ⚠️ Hidden or undisclosed assets can dramatically affect the fairness of a divorce settlement. California law requires both spouses to fully disclose all income, property, debts, and financial accounts. Failing to identify hidden assets may result in an inequitable division or disputes later, making thorough financial transparency essential.
