This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Mystery Illness Strikes Grand Canyon Rafters paddlingmag.com/stories/news-e…
Text Shot: A spokesperson for Grand Canyon National Park confirmed that the National Park Service (NPS) is aware of the reported illness. The NPS Office of Public Health is leading an investigation in coordination with public health partners.

In a written statement, the NPS shared, “At this time, the investigation is ongoing, and we are not able to comment on the extent of the illnesses, potential diagnoses or other details while the investigation is underway. We will share additional information with the public as it becomes available.”

King and Wappett have both been contacted by an NPS Public Health Officer as part of the investigation. Wappett says the experience has taught him the importance of the often-overlooked health risks of traveling in remote areas like the Grand Canyon.

“We kind of just blow that off like, oh, no, it’s no big deal. But I’m starting to learn there’s a lot of weird things down there, and you got to be really careful with keeping things clean and just…

The New York Times helped turn trans rights into political controversy, analysis finds www.advocate.com/politics/natio…
Text Shot: Caraballo, a clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic, said she undertook the project because years of criticism from transgender writers, journalists, and advocacy groups had often been met by the Times with defenses of individual stories. The problem, she said, was not always factual error, but the cumulative effect of framing, story selection, and prominence.

The New York Times helped turn trans rights into political controversy, analysis finds www.advocate.com/politics/natio…
Text Shot: A new data investigation argues that The New York Times sharply changed the way it covers transgender people beginning in 2022, moving from rights-based framing toward more skeptical, conflict-driven coverage that elevated opponents of transgender rights and gave less prominence to transgender people themselves.

Frontiers | Estimating heatwave-induced excess mortality in India's districts www.frontiersin.org/journals/envir…
Text Shot: India is among the world’s most heat-exposed nations, with hundreds of millions of people facing dangerous temperatures each summer and a mortality burden that remains poorly understood at the district level. We estimate that a single day of extreme heat causes approximately 3,400 excess deaths nationally; a five-day heatwave causes nearly 30,000. Although global studies highlight surging heat-related mortality, granular spatial-temporal data on how heatwaves affect mortality at the district level in India remain inaccessible to common researchers. District-level estimates of heatwave-induced excess mortality covering all of India have not previously been reported in the peer-reviewed literature; this paper provides such estimates using publicly available data and a climate zone-based risk transfer methodology. We adapt findings from a multi-city epidemiological analysis of heat-related mortality across 10 Indian cities to estimate excess deaths across all Indian districts.…

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.
Six accounts on Polymarket made around $1 million in profit by betting on the US to strike Iran by Feb. 28, according to analytics firm Bubblemaps SA. The accounts were all freshly created in February and had only ever placed bets on when US strikes might occur. Some of their shares were purchased, in some cases at roughly a dime apiece, hours before the first explosions were reported in Tehran.

Several fall ‘deathly ill’ from suspected Las Vegas bio lab thehill.com/homenews/state…
Text Shot: LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Several people became sick from an alleged bio lab running out of a Las Vegas home that also served as an Airbnb, according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators at Nexstar’s KLAS obtained Tuesday.
Metro police and the FBI searched the Sunrise Manor home on Saturday, Jan. 31, finding a “possible biological laboratory,” including “refrigerators with vials containing unknown liquids,” police said.
Ori Solomon, 55, faces a felony charge of disposing or discharging hazardous waste, according to state court records, the 8 News Now Investigators first reported. Late Monday, federal prosecutors filed paperwork to charge Solomon on a gun charge.
An LLC tied to the home’s county records matches the name of a company that is part of an ongoing federal case in California involving a biological laboratory there, the 8 News Now Investigators first reported Sunday.
