🚨Could massive volcanic events trigger natural carbon dioxide removal (#CDR)?
New study suggests that during the Emeishan supervolcanic eruptions (~260M yrs ago), enhanced weathering of uplifted rocks removed huge amounts of atm CO₂, cutting levels nearly in half.

2/ Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are among the largest volcanic events in Earth’s history, typically releasing huge volumes of lava over 1-5 million years.
They’re widely thought to drive CO₂ spikes, warming, and environmental crises through massive volcanic degassing.

I’m heading to a Commerce Committee markup today, in part because I’ve been reporting for the last few days on a very interesting saga around a Coast Guard promotion.

Buckle up, because this will be a long thread here:
From 2015 to 2017 Kimberly McLear, a Coast Guard officer who was also a professor at the Coast Guard Academy filed complaints against Jesse Millard, her boss at the time, and other officers, alleging they mistreated and bullied her.
She then went on to accuse Millard of retaliating against her for having filed complaints, after he gave her lower marks on her review that year.

Diamond Comic Distributors creditors are demanding the return of nearly $50 million in consignment inventory and payment of administrative claims in the ongoing bankruptcy case.
Here's a breakdown...
• The Ad Hoc Committee of Consignors and the Consignment Group filed motions asking the court to terminate the contracts and order the release of inventory valued at $47.4 million at cost.
• They accuse Sparkle Pop (the buyer of Diamond's assets) of continuing to sell consignment stock in violation of a prior court order, with proceeds held but not disbursed to publishers.
• The Consignment Group is also seeking $3.4 million in administrative claims for goods delivered during the Chapter 11 phase, higher than Diamond's earlier disclosure of $2.9 million total.
• The bankruptcy court previously denied the trustee's request to extend the time to assume or reject publisher contracts.
• Goodman Games filed an objection alleging a possible secret deal between the trustee and a secured creditor regarding fees and recoveries.
• The trustee now has until March 15 to explain the alleged arrangement.

Here's more information on what this actually means…
• Diamond's Chapter 11 reorganization turned into Chapter 7 liquidation after primary lender JPMorgan Chase pulled further funding, leaving publishers fighting to recover their unsold stock that was held on consignment.
• The inventory has been sitting in warehouses for over a year, incurring storage fees and insurance risks, while publishers argue the trustee has no right to sell it to pay other creditors.
• This situation has left many independent publishers in limbo, unable to access their own merchandise or get paid for post-petition deliveries.

There is a major free speech victory out of the Ninth Circuit, which just vacated the order of District Judge David O. Carter, who had ruled against a child punished for declaring "all lives matter" in the California school system. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opin…
...The school’s principal, Jesus Becerra, punished the child, including a two-week suspension from recess, and demanded that she apologize. Judge Carter, an Obama appointee, ruled in favor of the school in an outrageous denial of free speech rights...
...The child, B.B., was represented by the Pacific Legal Foundation and has now secured a major win for all school children in exercising their free speech. The panel ruled that this right exists even for the very young: "We hold that the age of the students is a relevant factor in evaluating the school’s restriction on a student’s speech. But age is not dispositive.”
Smoking has already killed far more people this century than in the entire 20th century—
Throughout the entire 20th century, about 100 million people died earlier than they would have because of smoking. That’s a lot, but it pales in comparison to the expected numbers for this century.
Between 2000 and 2023 alone, smoking-related deaths are estimated at 163 million. You can see this comparison in the chart.
Some epidemiologists project that unless there is a substantial change in smoking uptake and rates across the world, there could be as many as one billion smoking-related deaths in the 21st century.
In the 20th century, most of these occurred in today’s high-income countries. In the 21st century, most will come from low- and middle-income countries.
Many of the people who are expected to die are smoking today, but even more are expected to be future smokers.
Finding ways to help people stop smoking and prevent them from starting matters for keeping this huge figure in the millions, not billions.

There is a profound lack of understanding about long Covid in primary care. While research for biomarkers and root cause treatments continue, we HAVE identified off label drug treatments that help with symptom management. Primary care needs to be aware of these treatments so they can recommend and prescribe them
1/
1/
Research and treatment guides are not mutually exclusive. I’ve seen some grumbling that “we don’t need handbooks, we need biomarkers” Respectfully, we need BOTH. People are floundering with their symptoms. LC is a heterogeneous condition and what works for one person doesn’t work for another person
2/

Guides about Long Covid offer a framework to help people understand their unique LC profile and identify which treatments may have the best chance of ruling their symptoms. They also offer options so people can cycle through treatments to see what works best for them

March 12, 1926: The Savoy Ballroom opens on Lenox Ave. in Manhattan, “dedicated exclusively to Colored People.” The nightspot that Langston Hughes will come to call the “Heartbeat of Harlem” is luxurious and spacious, a step up from so many smoky, cramped dance halls. 1/6
Owned by two white men but managed by a Black man, Charles Buchanan, the Savoy is one of the first racially integrated entertainment venues in New York. Admission is 50¢ weekdays, 75¢ weekends. The decor is pink, the chandelier is enormous and the dance floor is a block long. 2/6
The Savoy owes its reputation as an innovator of dance to bouncer Herbert “Whitey” White, who forms a troupe in the 1930s called the Lindy Hoppers. They popularize the Lindy Hop, named for Charles Lindbergh, with moves that grow increasingly acrobatic and gravity-defying. 3/6

Nitric Oxide naturally relaxes and widens your blood vessels.
Here are 8 tips to boost it naturally (bookmark this): 🧵
1. Eat nitrate-rich foods.
Your body converts dietary nitrates into Nitric Oxide through a simple pathway:
Nitrates → Nitrites → Nitric Oxide.
The best sources are:
- Beets
- Lettuce
- Arugula
- Spinach
Eat at least one serving every single day.

2. Breathe through your nose.
Your paranasal sinuses produce Nitric Oxide.
When you inhale through your nose, it's carried into your lungs with the air.
Nasal breathing boosts Nitric Oxide production by up to 20%.
Tape your mouth while you sleep to ensure it.
