At least they had compassionate nurses…
Painted into a corner, the Nusslocks were forced to drive to a nearby facility that was not bound by religious restriction — but not before a nurse at Providence handed them a bucket and some towels “in case something happens in the car.”
He was (likely) wrongfully imprisoned for a crime that occurred 26 years ago. So it’s both long imprisonment and the costs of trying to overturn the conviction, including fact seeking, labs, lawyers, prosecutors, judges etc.
A good start, yet still a long way to go.
Yes, sarcasm. There are plenty of smaller news sites, but (at least in Sweden) many are struggling due to lack of paid subscribers or ad revenue, not due to explaining whether they have tracking or third party cookies.
Like Amazon, which only had net losses for several years (from 1994 to 2002) in order to focus on aggressive growth and outcompeting other similar services by setting excessively low prices on books and media.
I disagree regarding lying down for bed. Never teach your body to associate the relaxation of meditation with sleep. Unless you only need it for immediately before you sleep to calm your mind.
I can now have mindfulness while doing activities (not driving ofc). Your body will do what you teach it, and I’ve stopped falling asleep meditating when I removed it from bedtime.
Yes, the world needs more meditation.
Edit: Apparently I didn’t RTFA, this is about farmWORKERS, not farmers. My point still stands about farms and agricultural practices further down. However, a scale of agriculture that requires extremely low paid, often illegal work force with no rights, is not a sustainable practice either.
The main issue is that you need a serious scale of operations to be able to earn money from agricultural practices, and that leads to a fairly monocultural crop, subsidies for certain crops and cog-in-the-wheel operations. So it is already heavily affected by industrial corporations. This is not just true for the US, it’s like this in the most part of the developed world. So the “family farms” tend to get outcompeted even when the farmers are pretty much working round the clock, and still with decreasing rewards and increasing loans while they have occasional crop failures. So it doesn’t surprise me if the next generation wants to experience life that isn’t a constant toil.
There are already “hobby farms” as well, not only run by rich people with horses and McMansions.
And then there is a homesteading movement, where families go the other way. They want to escape the rat race and settle down, have more time with their kids and be self-sufficient. Some even do it in an extremely frugal way, some in an eco way with permaculture instead of monoculture. Some are even ex-farmer progeny who want to get back to their roots in a smaller scale.
As if we Swedes wouldn’t have mandatory education about the major religions of the world during school already. And I am pretty sure almost every school library carries copies of the quran, just as the bible and some other major scriptures.
Among the first leading paragraphs I was worried that this merely was what Bhutan claimed. That it was followed up by WWF and other organizations is great.
Very exciting.

Just wish I hadn’t opened that site in Safari on iPhone first, putting it in reader mode crashed it so hard I had to restart my phone.
Sorry, I pressed reply in Voyager, but it ended up as a comment to my post instead of a reply to your comment.
Considering that it is stated that it helped in earlier stages (before they took the patients off donanemab), I don’t think they got as far as claiming it halted the progress. From the article I mainly had the impression that it slowed it enough in some patients to show some progress in the research. Still, this is hopeful, considering the other options that have been available thus far.
