Micro- and Nanoplastics Linked to Parkinson’s and Dementia Experts say the new findings add to evidence linking plastics pollution to disease, urge political action to reduce environmental toxins. ***** After 61 years I can still hear the Birds during Spring! *****   That plastic water bottle you regularly drink from could one day decompose into tiny particles that wreak havoc in your brain. New research shows that nanoplastics—microscopic particles broken down from everyday plastic items—bind to proteins associated with Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body dementia. These stealthy nanoparticles have already infiltrated our soil, water, and food supply. Now, they may pose the next great toxin threat, fueling a wave of neurodegenerative disease. Plastic Cups, Utensils Identified as Risk Factors Polystyrene nanoparticles, commonly found in plastic cups and utensils, bind to alpha-synuclein, a protein linked to Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body dementia, the new study from D...

  The US government knows it's letting Israel get away with crimes against humanity Israel even covered up paedophilia exposed by a children's charity RICKY Former state department official,  Josh Paul , who worked on US arms transfers until he resigned in protest, has confirmed what we all knew about US policy on Israel. In a recent  interview , he told CNN: “In all the arms transfers I’ve been a part of discussing, including to Israel, there has always been space for discussion and debate. You can raise concerns about how these arms are going to be used. Do we have confidence that laws of war, laws of proportionately are going to be respected? Do we have concerns about some of the units that these arms might be going to and their track records? “What was different here is there was no discussion, there was simply an approach that the barn doors are open and that remains the case. The  Wall Street Journal  reported in just the last couple of days that America h...

  It's 2073 and We're DINKs! I just wish I knew somebody who could take me to Costco for a hot plate! DANIEL D It’s 2073, we’re old, and we’re still DINKs!!! It’s 2073, we’re old, and we’re DINKs! 1  We spend all day wishing we were healthy enough to walk to Costco. We miss Costco. It was so wonderful when we would go there, and the nice man at the front would tell us that he loves us. I wish we knew someone who could take us there, but all our friends are old and in bad health like us. We’re DINKs! I really miss Costco so much. It’s been forever since anyone told us they loved us. My wife used to say she loved me every now and then, but now that she has Alzheimer’s real bad, she doesn’t know who I am anymore. Things are actually better now that her memory’s gone. For a while there, she would get real angry at me sometimes when she’d been drinking wine all day and talking to that stupid sister of hers. For some reason, she blames me for us  not having kids . She thinks I ...
