Sommerblumen im Juli – Senioren um die Welt

Bei Blumen im Juli denkt man meistens an Rosen und Lavendel. Doch neben diesen zwei typischen Sommerblühern der Sommermonat noch andere Naturschönheiten bereit. Im Juli sind viele Blumen in voller Pracht zu sehen. Sie drücken die Freude und Lebendigkeit des Sommers aus. Die Sonne steht hoch am Himmel und der Sommer nähert sich seinem Höhepunkt.

‘We are not playing around’: Harris calls on Black women to mobilize for 2024 election – Los Angeles Times

Vice President Kamala Harris ramped up her call Wednesday for Black women to mobilize for the 2024 election, telling members of the Zeta Phi Beta sorority that the nation was counting on them to energize, organize, register voters and get them to the polls.

“I believe we face a choice between two different visions for our nation: one focused on the future, the other focused on the past,” Harris said as she delivered a keynote speech to a packed room at Zeta Phi Beta Sorority’s Grand Boulé convention in Indianapolis. “With your support, I am fighting for our nation’s future.”

Harris — a graduate of Howard University, a historically black college, and member of Alpha Kappa Alpha — has repeatedly leaned into her connections with Black college women on the campaign trail, urging her sorority sisters to step up in the months ahead of the 2024 election.

“Wait!” Fred C Trump III writes. “What did he just say? That my son doesn’t recognise me? That I should just let him die?

“Did he really just say that?”

The shocking exchange is described in All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got This Way, which will be published next week. The Guardian obtained a copy.

The book also includes a description of the former US president and current Republican nominee using the N-word, news that dropped into a presidential election in which Trump faces Kamala Harris, the first woman of colour to be vice-president.

‘Miracle’ new anti-HIV jab could revolutionise virus prevention

A “miracle” new anti-HIV jab giving protection from the deadly virus for six months is being hailed as a chance to revolutionise prevention of an infection which still kills one person every minute.

Excitement about the potential of Lenacapavir and discussions on how to cut the price of the costly injection have dominated this week’s 25th annual international Aids conference.

The drug brings hope of helping to solve a stubborn problem which has been holding back efforts to curb HIV and Aids, particularly in Africa.

Protective pills, called pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP), to stop people getting HIV are already effective, but need to be taken every day.
