Scientists develop blood test designed to detect cancer within just 10 minutes
A blood test can detect cancer within just 10 minutes, scientists have found, raising hopes that hard-to-spot diseases could be picked up early when treatment is most effective. Currently doctors use symptoms and a raft of tests and biopsies to determine if cancer is present which can sometimes take months. The new method from the University of Queensland looks for differences in the genetic code of cancerous and healthy cells. The team found that the DNA of cancer cells sticks strongly to nanoparticles of gold giving a quick indication whether disease is present or not to the naked eye. And because the same changes occur in all cancerous cells, the test should work on all cancer types, the team believes.

Ohakea(NZ) residents have blood tested for PFAS compounds
After drinking contaminated water at his farm shed for 40 years Ohakea farmer Andy Russell wants to know how much toxic substance from firefighting foam is in his blood.
He’s one of at least 13 people who live or work around the ?hakea Airforce Base who have asked to have their blood tested for the presence of the per or poly fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that have been in firefighting foam used at the base.
Russell had his blood test on September 3, and said the results are six weeks away. He’s not sure what kind of test the Health Ministry will use, and said the toxicity of the substances is still relatively unknown.
Other news about PFAS is that the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) knew there was some contamination as early as 2015, (more…)

“He Has Her Blood On His Hands”: Anti-Gun Liberals Viciously Attack Father Of Florida Shooting Victim For Supporting Donald Trump
Hard-left social media users have spent the day viciously attacking the father of one of the victims of the horrific Florida school mass shooting over the fact that he wore a Trump 2020 t-shirt during an interview with a local news outlet.
That’s right, in the new America it is apparently perfectly acceptable to attack and even blame the parent of a teenager who was murdered, all because his political beliefs do not line up with the leftist orthodoxy.
Both Andrew Pollack and his wife were interviewed outside of Broward Health North hospital, hoping to hear from their daughter hours after the attack that left 17 dead and over a dozen injured. During (more…)
You’ve done it now, Mogg. The BBC will be out for your blood
The morning after being ‘caught up in a scuffle’ at the University of the West of England (a scene that BBC Somerset’s James Craig described as ‘very aggressive and unexpected’), found Jacob Rees-Mogg being interviewed on BBC Radio Four’s Today programme.
The purpose of the interview was not, though, the previous night’s headline-making attack on him, which was sufficiently intimidating to draw condemnation from both Labour’s Shadow Education spokesman Angela Rayner and the Lib Dems’ Jo Swinson.
It was not this at the front of presenter Nick Robinson’s mind. He neither bothered to inquire what had happened (which would have given him an account from the horse’s (more…)
School defends CNN, punishes student protest (this will make your blood boil!)

A Georgia family is under fire… for using their First Amendment rights.
Parents of 7th grader Jaxon Dekalb have been all-but officially labeled bad parents for allowing their son to wear a T-shirt that mocked the liberal news network CNN.
Nancy and Stan Jester, Jaxon’s parents, are both elected officials. Nancy is a county commissioner and Stan is a member of the local school board.
When their son asked to wear a T-shirt mocking the CNN logo as “FNN” with the caption — for Fake News Network” — on a field trip to CNN’s Atlanta headquarters, they did not say no.
But before the start of the field trip, a teacher forced Jaxon to remove his shirt.

Bad omen: Ancient ‘blood miracle’ failed to liquefy heralding disaster for the coming years
One of the most famous recurring miracles — even if one not quite sanctioned by the Catholic Church — is the liquefaction of the dried blood of San Gennaro, or St. Januarius, a bishop of Naples martyred around 305 A.D. and the city’s patron saint. Starting in 1389, the vial of San Gennaro’s blood typically turns liquid three times a year: on the Saturday before the first Sunday of May; on his saint’s feast day, Sept. 19; and on Dec. 16, the day Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 1631.
The blood liquefied on Sept. 19 this year, but not on Dec. 16. “In local lore, the failure of the blood to liquefy signals war, famine, disease, or other disaster,” Catholic News Agency reports.
