First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots

The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

I didnt take any pics but was so proud to participate in this protest. Almost every car driving though was honking and some also had signs. There was one truck flying Trump flags but in the 2 hours I was there it is the only one I saw though he went through twice.

The entire town has come out to protest JD Vance and reports indicate he’s been either run out or forced to go into hiding. #3E #EndImpunity #StandWithUkraine

Vance is now waaaaaay to close to my house. We will join our Vermont friends tomorrow to share our disgust with him and the rest of the administration and our support for those they have been and will surely be harming.

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach. www.tsunami.gov

Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe

Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.
