John Scalzi is a voluble man. He is the author of several New York Times best sellers and has been nominated for nearly every major award that the science-fiction industry has to offer—some of which he’s won multiple times. Over the course of his career, he has written millions of words, filling dozens of books and 27 years’ worth of posts on his personal blog. All of this is to say that if one wants to cite Scalzi, there is no shortage of material. But this month, the author noticed something odd: He was being quoted as saying things he’d never said.“The universe is a joke,” reads a meme featuring his face. “A bad one.” The lines are credited to Scalzi and were posted, atop different pictures of him, to two Facebook communities boasting almost 1 million collective members. But Scalzi never wrote or said those words. He also never… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 days ago - Specific symptoms could warn of MS more than a decade before diagnosis, study finds
People with multiple sclerosis (MS) may show warning signs long before classic symptoms appear — and mental health concerns could be among the first red flags, according to new research.A University of British Columbia (UBC) study, published last week in JAMA Network Open, examined the medical records of 2,038 patients with the autoimmune disease and compared them to 10,182 patients without it. The researchers found that future MS patients had elevated rates of mental health-related issues, psychiatrist and general practice visits, and complaints of vague symptoms such as fatigue and pain — all as early as 15 years before the onset of clear symptoms.MAKING THESE 11 LIFESTYLE CHANGES COULD WARD OFF ALZHEIMER'S, EXPERT SAYS"These findings suggest that MS may begin much earlier than previously recognized, with mental health–related issues as early indicators," the researchers wrote.MS, which attacks the protective myelin coating around nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, affects… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 days ago - Protecting Your Fleet After a Truck Crash: Have a Plan in Place
Why Post-Crash Procedures Matter In the trucking industry, the moments immediately following a crash—no matter how minor—are critical. The way drivers and fleets respond can significantly influence safety outcomes, insurance claims, and potential litigation months or years later. From gathering accurate information to preserving evidence, having a structured crash response plan helps fleets protect themselves legally and financially. Industry safety experts stress that training drivers on post-crash protocols is essential. Drivers should understand how to remain calm, show empathy toward others involved, and gather accurate details at the scene. This includes photographs, videos, and contact information for all parties and witnesses. Relying solely on police reports can delay the process and leave fleets vulnerable. The Driver’s Role After a Crash Fleet safety leaders recommend equipping drivers with clear guidelines and tools to handle post-crash documentation. This might include crash kits in the cab or apps that walk drivers… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 days ago - Australia to close loophole in screening system for childcare workers

In an effort to scope out the competition, Farley spent six months driving around in a Xiaomi SU7. The Chinese-made electric sedan is one of the world’s most impressive cars: It can accelerate faster than many Porsches, has a giant touch screen that lets you turn off the lights at your house, and comes with a built-in AI assistant—all for roughly $30,000 in China. “It’s fantastic,” Farley said about the Xiaomi SU7 on a podcast last fall. “I don’t want to give it up.”Farley has openly feared what might happen to Ford if more Americans can get behind the wheel of the Xiaomi SU7. Ford was able to import a Xiaomi from Shanghai for testing purposes, but for now, regular Americans cannot buy the SU7 or another one of the many affordable and… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 days ago
