She put American lives at risk. By releasing info of soldiers who are killing civilians she put our soldiers, who are still there, at risk. Now extremists have justification for killing us. If she was sO cOncerned about war crimes she should have followed the procedure for that. Because America made it illegal, and we have a procedure to report them ; )) but soldiers are forced to kill so they can’t become witnesses if all of them have done it. I’d ((like to)) say most of them aren’t jumping at the idea of death and taking lives, it’s just a part of war. And who’s to say who the civilians are? Most bombs and ambushes are done by civilians. So why didn’t she do the procedure for reporting war crimes or just leak it to Congress? Cui bono? Who benefits?

Hey, this is literally the closest the government can get to interrogation and they’re just getting away with it, what the fuck hell world

Stem cells restore function in primate heart-failure study

Murry said the goal of his group's research is to develop a treatment that could be given to people shortly after a heart attack to prevent heart failure. Because heart cells are long-lived there should be no need for additional treatments, he said.

Researchers at UW Medicine in Seattle have successfully used human stem cells to restore heart function in monkeys with heart failure. The findings suggest that the technique will be effective in patients with heart failure, the leading cause of death in the world.

“The cells form new muscle that integrates into heart so that it pumps vigorously again,” said Dr. Charles “Chuck” Murry, professor of pathology at the University of Washington School of Medicine. He is also a professor of medicine in the Division of Cardiology, and of bioengineering. He is the director of the UW Medicine Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine and was the senior leader of this research project.

“In some animals” Murry said, the cells returned the hearts’ functioning to better than 90 percent of normal.“ Murry and his colleagues report their findings in the July 2 issue of the journal Nature Biotechnology. The paper’s lead authors are Drs. Yen-Wen Liu, Billy Chen and Xiulan Yang.

The US Is Burning Up, But No One Wants to Talk About The Elephant in The Room

Shhh don't mention it.

It’s hot. Too hot. And climate scientists agree that it’s only going to get hotter. Yet despite the record-breaking heat wave impacting millions of Americans right now, barely anyone in the mainstream media is talking about the elephant in the room.

A new and distressing report from Media Matters reveals that most major broadcast TV networks are completely ignoring the link between unprecedented heat waves and climate change.

In the last week of June, the US was hit by a massive and powerful heat wave stretching right across the country. The dangerous temperatures are like nothing ever seen before, breaking 227 US records in the first week alone.

It would be nice to think that reporters would want to - no, have to - explain to the public why these dangerous and deadly temperatures are becoming more common and more intense. Media Matter’s recent analysis puts that hopeful assumption to rest.

The report analyzed two weeks of TV segments on ABC, CBS and NBC. Out of all 127 segments featuring the US heat wave, only one bothered to mention climate change.

“ Immediately his reason went away. The brightness of this sun of a crepe vanishes; All chaos rolled in this intelligence, Temple once alive, full of order and opulence, Under the ceilings of which so much pomp had him. Silence and night settled in him, as in a vault whose key is lost. From that time he was like the beasts of the street, And when he went away without seeing anything, through the fields, without distinguishing the summers of the winters, Dirty, useless and ugly as a worn thing, He made children the joy and laughter.”

“Often, to amuse themselves, the men of a crew Catch albatrosses, those vast sea birds That indolently follow a ship As it glides over the deep, briny sea. Scarcely have they placed them on the deck Than these kings of the sky, clumsy, ashamed, Pathetically let their great white wings Drag beside them like oars.

That winged voyager, how weak and gauche he is, So beautiful before, now comic and ugly! One man worries his beak with a stubby clay pipe; Another limps, mimics the cripple who once flew! “

John William Godward (1861-1922)

In the video he was growling like a rabid animal and chasing her down a dark alley. If that happened to me I’d think that this guy was mental and wants to kill me.

just saw a video of a man chasing a woman down an alley at night claiming she was only scared/running because he was black lmao……like the first thing we teach ourselves as girls is how to protect ourselves against being raped/murdered!! no fucking wonder she was running!! you’re a man at night!! thats the fuckin problem!!
