A startling new report reveals that the Five Eyes alliance — the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand — leans heavily on China for rare earth elements (REEs), pivotal in the global mineral supply chain. This intelligence-sharing coalition, crucial for global security, faces a strategic Achilles’ heel. Their military supply chains, reliant on REEs, are at the mercy of Chinese export decisions. A new report is sounding the alarm: the Five Eyes alliance (U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, New Zealand) must cut its reliance on China for rare earth elements (REEs) immediately. These minerals are vital for our…
Vice President Kamala Harris’s ascension as the Democratic presidential nominee against former President Donald Trump has electrified a race that once seemed firmly in the GOP’s favor. Harris has quickly closed the gap with Trump in national polls, where he previously led President Joe Biden by five to six points before Biden exited the 2024 race. In just two weeks, Harris has shattered fundraising records, pulling in $310 million in July and finishing the month with $377 million on hand, far outpacing Trump’s $138.7 million haul and $327 million cash on hand. 🇺🇸 While fundraising, Kamala Harris’ campaign segregated supporters…
This earnings season, investors are laser-focused on the capital expenditures of Big Tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet. These investments are seen as a measure of their confidence in the transformative power of AI. However, as Julie Hyman noted, the reality is more nuanced; these companies must commit heavily just to stay competitive. “Effectively what we’ve heard is that nobody is blinking.” Denny Fish, Portfolio Manager at @JHIAdvisors, says Big Tech isn’t stopping its investments on AI, resulting in continued Nvidia growth https://t.co/MBYx2gMChj pic.twitter.com/wMB0ngFSLE — Bloomberg TV (@BloombergTV) August 1, 2024 Supply chain dynamics play a crucial role,…
In Michigan, an unexpected Google ad may catch voters off guard. The ad depicts a young man in bed, jolted awake by a text urging him to vote. The accompanying video shows the chaotic scene of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, with gunshots and screams echoing in the background. Unnoticed, Musk and friends launched a superPAC last Spring. It has now been noticed. “America PAC has drawn attention from Mr. Trump’s team, in part because of Mr. Musk’s involvement, and is planning on striking a data-sharing agreement to coordinate with the Trump campaign… pic.twitter.com/FFV4KGGm5z — Just Human…

The American star defeated Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade once again in the vault apparatus final on Saturday, winning her third gold medal of the Paris Olympics. It’s her 10th Olympic medal and seventh gold. Andrade won silver and American Jade Carey took bronze, redeeming a disappointing vault final in Tokyo, where she tripped on the runway. The first day of individual apparatus finals kicked off today in Paris, with men’s floor exercise, women’s vault, and men’s pommel horse. You can use some of the same techniques as Simone Biles and Michael Phelps to win your own ‘medals’ at the office. https://t.co/vO3fnBBTW9…
Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, and the University of Pécs in Hungary discovered that counterfeit versions of semaglutide drugs, sold as Ozempic and Wegovy, pose serious health risks. The study, published in a recent report, highlights the dangers of purchasing these drugs from illegal online pharmacies. These counterfeit drugs, marketed for weight loss, appetite suppression, diabetes, and cardiovascular health, were found to have low-purity semaglutide, dosages exceeding labeled amounts, and one even showed signs of bacterial contamination. Nearly half of online pharmacies selling weight loss drugs are operating illegally, study finds https://t.co/LrLqQxrqfp — JustSearchin (@AndreasBoos) August 3,…
According to a new study from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, non-coding DNA—which makes up 98% of our genome and does not contain instructions for making proteins—may hold the key to new cancer diagnostics and treatments. The findings, published in the journal Nucleic Acids Research, reveal mutations in previously overlooked regions of the genome that may contribute to the formation and progression of at least 12 different cancers, including prostate, breast, and colorectal cancer. New Research: Evolutionarily conserved enhancer-associated features within the MYEOV locus suggest a regulatory role for this non-coding DNA region in cancer https://t.co/lLk74XtvK4 #FrontiersIn #CellDevelopmentalBiology —…
When we think of ancient Egyptian mummies, human mummies often come to mind, perhaps recalling school trips to museums or Hollywood depictions. However, the Egyptians also preserved millions of animals, revealing fascinating details about their religious and cultural practices. A recent study on a mummified crocodile has provided extraordinary insights into its final moments and the methods used by ancient embalmers. Using a CT scanner, researchers were able to determine how the crocodile died and how its body was treated post-mortem. This particular crocodile mummy, housed at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, measures 2.23 meters in length.…

With Israel about to make its move to stop Hezbollah attacks, the Middle East is set to explode. The US is sending a carrier strike group, a fighter squadron, and additional warships to the Middle East as the region braces for an Iranian retaliation to the killing of a senior Hamas leader in Tehran earlier this week. It is perhaps the largest movement of US forces to the region since the early days of the Gaza war, when the Pentagon sent two carrier strike groups toward the Middle East in a very public warning to regional militant groups not to…
Not all of Elizabeth Taylor’s marriages were filled with happiness. The late Oscar winner, famously married eight times to seven husbands, reveals her true feelings in newly unearthed interviews featured in the documentary “Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes,” debuting on HBO on August 3.

The legal battle between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has intensified, with Jolie alleging that Pitt attempted to coerce her into signing an $8.5 million non-disclosure agreement (NDA) to conceal “years of abuse.” This claim was detailed in new court documents filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on July 25. Jolie’s attorneys argued that Pitt, 60, should disclose “private, third-party communications” regarding their family’s 2016 plane incident, which led to Jolie, 49, filing for divorce. Pitt’s legal team previously labeled Jolie’s motion as “wide-ranging and intrusive.” Angelina Jolie claims Brad Pitt is trying to silence her abuse allegations with…
