Caterpillar asp

Why you shouldn’t touch these hairy caterpillars ☞ KHOU – Houston

“An ice pack should be applied to the site of the sting.

For caterpillars with stout spines, try carefully applying cellophane tape to, and stripping it from, the sting site to remove the irritating spines.”

Fake scientific papers are alarmingly common ☞ Science.org

“When neuropsychologist Bernhard Sabel put his new fake-paper detector to work, he was ‘shocked’ by what it found. After screening some 5000 papers, he estimates up to 34% of neuroscience papers published in 2020 were likely made up or plagiarized; in medicine, the figure was 24%.”

Leg Lengthening Operation

Leg-lengthening surgery gains popularity among men seeking to be taller ☞ NBC News

“The $75,000, four-hour surgery, which is not generally covered by insurance, involves cutting the thigh bones in each leg and inserting a rod inside them.

Walking and talking at the same time gets harder once you’re 55, study finds ☞ CBS News

“As compared to walking quietly, walking under dual-task conditions adds stress to the motor control system because the two tasks must compete for shared resources in the brain.

New Cochrane Study on Masks and Covid ☞ City Journal – NYC

“Before the pandemic, clinical trials repeatedly showed little or no benefit from wearing masks in preventing the spread of respiratory illnesses like flu and colds.
