☆ Scientists witnessed an orangutan treating his wounds with medicinal plants, showing human-like behavior

They believe it was caused by a neighboring male in what's known as a "long call battle," Laumer told Business Insider. Adult male orangutans like Rakus shout out "long calls" to attract females and let rival males know that this is their territory. Rakus may have unintentionally touched his leaf-mush-covered finger to his face, and instantly felt the pain-relieving properties of the plant, Laumer explained. But, because this is the first time this behavior has ever been observed in orangutans, scientists can't say for sure why or how Rakus did it. More alike than we are differentRakus's behavior reminds us a lot of our own behavior with medicinal plants, which could help us understand where our knack for medicinal treatment first evolved.

Read previewMany of the convenient breakfast foods found in grocery stores are ultra-processed, from cereals to bars. But healthier alternatives that are still easy to pick up and go do exist, a dietitian told Business Insider. At the same time, dietitians have previously told BI that it can be unwise to stop eating all UPFs because some are healthier than others and they can be a cheap and easy way to consume nutrients. When it comes to breakfast, experts agree that the ideal meal includes protein, carbs, and healthy fats.

☆ A Weeknight Skillet Chicken Dinner, Rich With Greens
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-13 | by ( Melissa Clark | More About Melissa Clark | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

For this recipe, I nestled my beloved greens in their pan with chicken thighs, another weeknight favorite. It makes for a skillet dinner that’s not much harder than cooking the greens by themselves, but a lot more substantial. Chicken breasts — either bone-in or boneless — will also work well. Boneless breasts have a narrow window of being done but not overdone, usually about 5 to 7 minutes less than boneless thighs, so watch them carefully. And if you’re a fan, olives or capers gives this a briny zing that rounds out the earthiness of the greens.

Yes, according to a Ugandan company that's buying banana stems in a business that turns fiber into attractive handicrafts. TEXFAD also takes material from a third party, Tupande Holdings Ltd., whose trucks deliver banana stems from farmers in central Uganda. Such items are possible because “banana fiber can be softened to the level of cotton,” Okello said. Working with researchers, TEXFAD is now experimenting with possible fabric from banana fiber. While it is now possible to make paper towels and sanitary pads from banana fiber, the company doesn't yet have the technology to make clothing, he said.

Manchester United stock fell as mush as 13.5% after a report suggested that it's worth billions less than the club's owners are seeking. A Financial Times analysis indicated that United's value is likely to be around $1.6 billion. The club's owners, the Glazer family, reportedly want at least $6 billion, per The Athletic. But an analysis by the Financial Times suggested the team's value is much lower — likely around $1.6 billion. The $1.6 billion valuation may ignore the intrinsic value of owning one of the sport's most notable franchises and brands as well.
