I came here to say the exact same thing. I'm sure there will also be a document to be signed that states they cannot sue for any reason should something go awry or their overall health is affected.
I'll go w/ your "further study kind of study" kind of study..." I'm an early riser and have 2 small breakfasts. How does that fit? But I'm female so I guess it doesn't matter. The pic of the breakfast: nope, not for me, couldn't eat all that. I do love eggs, but that's more a dinner than breakfast; 2 soft poached eggs over grits, maybe some bacon or a sausage patty. No toast or bread.
I'll be reading more to find out what investigators find re: the foiled attack at the air base.
Good news: Prosecutors in central New York say they are reopening the investigation of an alleged gang rape at a Cornell University fraternity in 2024
Read the entire article re: "Food safety becomes an election issue as major outbreaks and recalls cause concern." Tells much more of the story. When the Taco Bell lettuce, etc., was happening, I was thinking folks should be cooking & eating at home. The romaine lettuce at the grocery stores were not suspect. Much less expensive, etc., etc. And kind-of related, WI law states: “The serving of colored oleomargarine or margarine at a public eating place as a substitute for table butter is prohibited unless it is ordered by the customer.” In other words, the ban on food coloring is taking place in the US, finally, after additives in foreign countries have been banned for many years. Red dyes will have to be gone by 2027; some forward-thinking companies are taking action now, including making safe substitutions for other artificial colorings, such as those found in margarine. A side note about the article in Food Safety on CBS News: it jumps around a bit, so it's unclear who is being quoted, but about halfway down, someone - the writer? - refers to Trump as Mr. Trump, several times. imo, I don't care what you think of him, in our country that person is referred to as President ___, or Mr President, or someday in the future Mrs./Ms/Miss. President.
I have fiber for both of my breakfasts. And fruit. I didn't mention what I have for breakfast, just that I have 2 small breakfasts. When I have eggs for dinner, I have grits. Grits are fiber.
I misspoke. No fiber for dinner? Better look at that grits nutrition label. They have almost no fiber, certainly not enough for a meal of all protein with no grains.
thanks. The eggs & grits might be once every 2 weeks. Other dinners most often have rice. I much prefer some form of rice over potatoes, altho we'll have potatoes maybe once or twice every 2 weeks. And plenty of veggies, at lunch & thruout the day. I also snack in the afternoon, when I have my 2 glasses of Cabernet. And snacks include enough fiber. I've followed the Mediterranean diet, pretty much as the guidelines say, for over 25 years. It might not be for everyone, but it works well for me. I lost a bit over 50 on it all those years ago & kept it off all those years. I did some yo-yo dieting before that, so have learned, like I said, what works for me.
Bill, I think your study needs more study. There seems to be too many variables yet to be able to come to any definitive conclusions.
Someone is being a bit disingenuous about the Cornell gang rape. There is no alleging about it. Two students were expelled and the others were assigned essays. Yes, essays for SA which is an admission of guilt. That this gang rape happened in 2024 and was basically quietly swept under the rug by the university and worse yet, the prosecutor says that women and those men who really care about them are not nearly mad enough. I’m glad that it’s finally seeing the light of day via this lawsuit brought by the young woman who went through that horror.
That there is so much violence aimed at people of color, immigrants, children and women, it makes me wonder how we’ve been raising our sons over these last few decades. Just saying.
reminds me of the gang rape case that happened at Vanderbilt. Took years for charges to take place: June 23, 2013 — The assault
A female student was raped in a Vanderbilt dorm by multiple football players. Security footage later showed teammates dragging her unconscious into the building.
August 2013 — Charges filed
Four players—Brandon Vandenburg, Cory Batey, Jaborian “Tip” McKenzie, and Brandon Banks—were charged with aggravated rape and related offenses.
2015 — First trial & mistrial. Batey and Vandenburg were convicted in January 2015, but a judge declared a mistrial in June 2015 because a juror failed to disclose prior involvement in a similar case.
2016–2018 — Retrials & final outcomes. Batey was convicted again. Vandenburg was convicted again. Banks pled guilty. McKenzie was acquitted of the most serious charges but convicted of lesser ones.
The case became a national example of campus sexual‑assault failures.
I was living there at the time. Made me sick!!!
The university’s initial silence — Vanderbilt released very limited information early on. And of course, the players were part of a high‑profile SEC football program. And after the initial coverage, reporting slowed until retrials resumed, because, ya know, other things were more important than coverage of the gang raping of a female by elite football players.
Stop worrying about things that could make you die and just enjoy living. When it’s your time to go, you will go. Could be hit by a bus or a chunk of airplane ice or fall down the stairs at your house. So you might as well enjoy your life and your food.
Why do companies think throwing money at people solves anything? They need to come up with better bribes than that.
And the SA story, I am often on the fence on these. I can’t imagine the strength it takes to come forward but on the other side, someone falsely accused has their name in the paper and their lives are often ruined. Will be interesting to see how this end up. In Canada, we had a similar situation with hockey players, all were acquitted.
Bribing people to build a data center! Disgraceful! Sounds like those folks see through the masquerade!

How can we deport parents but not their children? Why??? Where do the kids go???
From what I have read in multiple sources the base “attack” seems to be some local crooks trying to steal diesel fuel.
