FDA approves use of cloned animals for food - PMC

The US Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of meat and milk from cloned cattle, pigs, and goats and from the offspring of clones of any species traditionally used as food. It said that such meat and milk was “as safe to eat as food from conventionally bred animals.” #grownostr #beef #food #clone #milk

Considering getting back into teaching #StopTheBleed in the community vs just the additional duty #TCCC with the fiat mine/employer. Found this plan for building a bleeding arm simulator for tourniquet application. The simulated “bleeding extremity” requires: - Skeleton arm (e.g from a Halloween store). A PVC pipe or broom handle can alternatively be used. - Foam pipe insulation (approximately 2-3” in diameter) -Tubing from a nasal cannula - Penrose drain - A plastic water bottle with its associated cap - Duct Tape #grownostr #medical #firstaid #bleeding

IDEA series: The Bleeding Arm Tourniquet Simulation

The bleeding arm tourniquet simulation combines low- and high-fidelity techniques to train healthcare personnel in tourniquet application.

A Texas sheriff's office used data from over 83,000 surveillance cameras across the U.S. to track a woman suspected of self-inducing an abortion, including in states where abortion is legal. The search was explicitly labeled: “had an abortion, search for female.” This highlights the dangers of unregulated surveillance technologies and the urgent need for comprehensive data privacy protections to safeguard rights.

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as Acting Scout Sergeant of a Forward Observer Team, serving with Battery L, Fourth Battalion, Fifteenth Marines, Sixth Marine Division, during action against enemy Japanese forces in Okinawa Shima in the Ryūkyū Chain, 15 April 1945. Undaunted by the powerfully organized opposition encountered on Motobu Peninsula during a fierce assault waged by a Marine infantry battalion against a Japanese strong-hold, Private First Class Gonsalves repeatedly braved the terrific hostile bombardment to aid his Forward Observation Team in directing well-placed artillery fire and, when his commanding officer determined to move into the front lines in order to register a more effective bombardment in the enemy's defensive position, unhesitatingly advanced uphill with the officer and another Marine despite a slashing barrage of enemy mortar and rifle fire. As they reached the front, a Japanese grenade fell close within the group. Instantly Private First Class Gonsalves dived on the deadly missile, absorbing the exploding charge in his own body and thereby protecting the others from serious and perhaps fatal wounds. Stouthearted and indomitable, Private First Class Gonsalves readily yielded his own chances of survival that his fellow Marines might carry on the relentless battle against the fanatic Japanese and his cool decision, prompt action and valiant spirit of self-sacrifice in the face of certain death reflect the highest credit upon himself and the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life in the service of his country. #Gonsalves #Marine #history #grenade #Japan #medalofhonor
