Syracuse University is preparing to implement a process for revoking honorary degrees. "Now that we're moving to implement, we have to wait to formally introduce it through committees and the University Senate." These recommendations were submitted to Syverud and the University Senate, and were combined into a report presented to the Board. The University is reviewing the resolution recently passed by the University Senate to rescind Rudy Giuliani's honorary degree." Apart from Syracuse University — President Joe Biden is a graduate of the Syracuse University College of Law, incidentally — the hold-outs include St. John Fisher University in New York, Loyola University Maryland, The Citadel in South Carolina, and Georgetown University in Washington, DC.

Women using chemical hair-straightening products are at a higher risk of uterine cancer than women who reported not using them, a new study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) found. Researchers noted that Black women may have a higher risk because they are more likely to use those products more frequently. “Sixty percent of the participants who reported using straighteners were Black women. The bottom line is that the exposure burden appears to be higher among Black women,” Chandra Jackson, an NIEHS Earl Stadtman Investigator who co-authored the study, said. Advocates like Greene, one of the leading voices in the movement against Black hair discrimination, have highlighted that wearing natural hair isn’t easy or always safe for Black people.

Even if a link were ever found, the life-saving benefits of the vaccines are still likely to outweigh the asthma risk, said Dr. Matthew Daley, the study’s lead author. But it’s possible that if the results are confirmed, it could prompt new work to redesign vaccines, he added. Dr. Paul Offit, of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, worried that the flawed study will needlessly scare some families away from proven vaccines. Several previous studies didn’t find a link between aluminum-containing childhood vaccines and allergies and asthma. About 4% of U.S. children under 5 have persistent asthma.

As the oldest sitting president, he's raising concerns about how long he can continue governing. Republicans — including Trump — have gleefully seized on Biden's verbal misadventures, such as when he called his vice president "President Harris." President Joe Biden drives the Ford's new all-electric F-150 Lightning in Dearborn, Michigan. Ruggerio described the idea that Joe Biden is diminished or can't remember things as "bull crap." Cox said that while he thinks Biden is "still Joe" and still capable, he worries that Biden's age is a problem.

☆ (foto, video) A fost descoperit titanozaurul, cel mai mare dinozaur care a existat vreodată

Cel mai mare dinozaur din lume descoperit vreodată a fost expus la Muzeul American de Istorie Naturală din New York. Are aproximativ 40 de metri lungime și 20 de metri lățime. Creatura preistorică nu a încăput în cea mai mare încăpere a clădirii, astfel că o parte din gâtul său uriaş a fost scoasă afară pe uşa de intrare în sala de expoziţie. Titanozaurul era un erbivor imens care a trăit în timpul Cretacicului târziu, în pădurile din Patagonia în urmă cu 95-100 de milioane de ani. În timpul a patru campanii de săpături, între 2005 şi 2009, paleontologii au reuşit să găsească peste 70% din schelet, cu excepţia oaselor capului.
