"I’m not sure if any will ever top the funeral sequence in SOY CUBA for me, even though the opening shot of TOUCH OF EVIL and the car ambush in CHILDREN OF MEN come close — but, at the end of the day, there is no getting around that director William “Wild Bill” Wellman pulled off this shot when cinema as we think of it was still in its nascency."

"This event will acknowledge the 50th anniversary of the end of the United States Public Health Service Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male at Tuskegee and Macon County, Alabama, 1932 -1972. The intention is to create a space for authentic, accurate storytelling and discussion regarding current and future opportunities for public health leaders at CDC and beyond to move from trust to trustworthiness."

"That data suggested the possibility that the updated booster might not be any more effective at preventing COVID-19 infections than the original shots".

Haaaave you met the mole rats?
They may not be the cutest (euphemism!), but these burrowing little critters have interesting adaptations to living underground. For example, they make do with very little oxygen, resist hypoxia and cancer, and their metabolism is different.

Discussion of antisemitism & the Holocaust
There’s a long history of anti-vaxxers comparing vaccination to the torture & mass murder of 6 million Jews during the Holocaust
I never thought I’d see the day when a British Member of Parliament would use this grotesque analogy, but here we are—he has been suspended (https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-64236687)
I’ve written about how Covid has unleashed antisemitism:

The WHO's Technical Advisory Group on Virus Evolution just published their rapid risk assessment of the #variant #XBB15:
"Based on its genetic characteristics and early growth rate estimates, XBB.1.5 may contribute to increases in case incidence globally. To date, the overall confidence in the assessment is low as growth advantage estimates are only from one country, the United States of America."

"T cell-dependent bispecific antibodies induce adverse systemic changes in addition to tumor killing. This study shows how different vascular beds respond to cancer immunotherapy, suggesting that reducing leukocyte-endothelial interactions may limit the accumulation of T cells, thereby alleviating off-tumor adverse responses."

Two years ago our Capitol was attacked by fanatics, now we are watching it happen in Brazil.
Solidarity with Lula and the Brazilian people.
Democracies around the world must stand united to condemn this attack on democracy.
Bolsonaro should not be given refuge in Florida.
"Finland ranked No. 1 of 41 European countries on resilience against misinformation for the fifth time in a row in a survey published in October by the Open Society Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria. Officials say Finland’s success is not just the result of its strong education system, which is one of the best in the world, but also because of a concerted effort to teach students about fake news. Media literacy is part of the national core curriculum starting in preschool."
