No, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Transgender People Aren’t Causing The Tampon Shortage

the real issue can be traced back to an increase in the cost of cotton and plastic used to produce tampons. These materials, also used for masks and other medical supplies, have been in particularly high demand since the pandemic. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has added another challenging layer to the problem, as both countries are key exporters of the materials.

apple seeds

I miss the flavor of you
at dawn

coming to me in dreams that fill my mind
with worried images

and times, fatigued

learning more from apple seeds
I lean into the love that sits atop the mountain

and the valleys deep
where love lingers in the shadows

and in every crack and crevice of this heart
pumping crimson-colored heat

through me, like the ocean

this love
I will forever keep

Come si misura l’espansione dell’universo

le pagine dei nostri libri

I fisici americani Saul Perlmutter, Brian P. Schmidt e Adam G. Riesci, premi Nobel nel 2011 per la Fisica, nel 1998 scoprirono che l’universo sta accelerando la sua espansione, probabilmente a causa di una forza sconosciuta, l’energia oscura, che potrebbe determinare il destino ultimo del cosmo.

La misurazione accurata e definitiva riguardo l’espansione dell’universo è una cosa complessa e si chiama Costante di Hubble, in memoria di Edwin Hubble, colui che per primo la misurò, nel 1929. Questa costante dovrebbe dirci la velocità cui si espande l’universo e anche quanto sta accelerando.

Al momento gli astronomi osservando in diversi punti dello spazio hanno però sempre elaborato risultati diversi. Ora invece un nuovo studio sembra essere finalmente riuscito a ottenere una costante ritenuta valida da tutti.

Il nuovo studio conferma le precedenti stime del tasso di espansione basate sulle osservazioni dell’omonimo telescopio Hubble mostrando un’espansione di circa 73 chilometri per megaparsec…

Anywhere I go

De malinha pronta

Anywhere I go
There’s a blue sky
And a soft place to land
Anywhere I go
I hear birds singing
And I see colourful flowers
Anywhere I go
Silence is golden
And words are whispered
Anywhere I go
My heart is light
And my body floats
Anywhere I go
There’s love
And hope
Anywhere I go
It’s a new day
Always the beginning
Never the end.

“Quando olhares para frente buscando enxergar o teu futuro, ou alguma referência do que esse possa ser, espero que a sua visão não seja embaçada. Mas que os bons ventos te traga o perfume dos doces licores. Seria triste vê-lo degustar da azeda amargura de um solo que não cultivaste como deveria. “

After Paxlovid treatment, COVID-19 symptoms rarely rebound, study says – UPI.com

Despite worries that COVID-19 symptoms can return after patients take the drug Paxlovid, cases of rebound symptoms are actually rare, a new study shows.

In an advisory last month, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cautioned that COVID-19 can sometimes make a comeback after an infected person has gone through a round of the antiviral pills.

In these cases of “COVID-19 rebound,” the illness improved or resolved within an average of three days, without additional treatment, the CDC advised in May.
