• A new study reveals the link between loneliness, cravings for high-calorie foods, and unhealthy eating behaviours in women, highlighting a significant brain activity pattern associated with social isolation. The research found that women feeling lonely show increased brain activation in areas related to cravings when exposed to images of sugary foods, alongside decreased self-control towards eating.

    These findings underscore the complex interplay between loneliness, mental health, and eating habits, suggesting that recognizing and addressing feelings of loneliness could be key to breaking the cycle of poor diet and mental health outcomes. The study emphasizes the need for holistic interventions focusing on social connections and healthier food choices to mitigate the negative impacts of loneliness on well-being.

  • Russische media: stuwdam Cherson beschadigd door aanval Oekraïne
    ANP - 1 uur geleden CHERSON (ANP/RTR/AFP) - Russische media melden dat de bezette Kachovka-stuwdam in de Oekraïense regio Cherson is beschadigd door een aanval van het Oekraïense leger. De schade aan de dam in de rivier Dnjepr zou volgens een pro-Russische functionaris niet "kritiek" zijn.Oekraïne zou met het Amerikaanse Himars-raketsysteem zes raketten hebben afgevuurd. De hulpdiensten zeggen dat vijf daarvan zijn neergehaald en eentje de dam heeft geraakt. Volgens een woordvoerder is geprobeerd om "omstandigheden te creëren voor een humanitaire catastrofe".

    Russische autoriteiten zeggen al langere tijd dat het Oekraïense leger van plan is om de dam op te blazen, met grote overstromingen in Zuid-Oekraïne tot gevolg. Dat werd als reden genoemd voor de "evacuatie" van vele tienduizenden burgers in Cherson naar andere gebieden onder Russische controle. Volgens Oekraïne is hier sprake van "deportaties".De regering in Kiev meent dat het juist Rusland is dat de 3,2 kilometer lange stuwdam wil aanvallen. Zij beschuldigt Russische troepen ervan explosieven in de dam te hebben verstopt en Oekraïne de schuld te willen geven van een damdoorbraak. Geen van de strijdende partijen leverde bewijs om hun aantijgingen te ondersteunen.

    Een damdoorbraak zou niet alleen betekenen dat delen van Oekraïne onder water komen te staan, maar ook dat de energieproblemen van Oekraïne groter worden. In de afgelopen weken zijn de stroomvoorzieningen ernstig getroffen door Russische aanvallen. De dam heeft daarnaast een groot reservoir dat water levert aan het schiereiland de Krim, in 2014 geannexeerd door Rusland, en aan de kerncentrale van Zaporizja. Die watertoevoer kan dus in de problemen komen.

    Tegenoffensief

    Het Oekraïense leger is bezig met een tegenoffensief in de regio Cherson, die deels is bezet en geannexeerd door Rusland. De verwachting is dat de Oekraïners binnenkort zullen proberen om de stad Cherson te heroveren op de Russen. Dit is de enige regionale hoofdstad die Russische troepen hebben ingenomen sinds het uitbreken van de oorlog op 24 februari.

  • A message from the National Reading Movement about the disadvantages of Short Form Content.
    Although nowadays a lot of information is available, the amount of “noise”, or irrelevant information, is many times bigger too, making is very hard to get to truth. It is easy to blame this on “fake news”, as governments do, or “propaganda”, as critics of governments do. However, I suggest that this is a consequence of the times we live in: the very early stages of a new Middle Age period. Society has had the means to spend its vast resources on meaningful projects and research, but unfortunately, most of these riches were squandered. Alas, these are the consequences of the choices that have been made.
    One of the things to do now, is to preserve the knowledge that we do have, and to encourage everybody, children and adults alike, to dig deeper in the subjects that interest than, rather than to be captivated by the latest fashion that is being broad cased by the companies that are looking to capture our attention.

  • Thank you for this interesting essay, Charles Buck.
    Biomedicine struggles to find safe painkillers. Chinese medicine's treasure chest has some answers. More people should know about valid and researched choices such as acupuncture and chinese medicine.

  • The world seems to be deeply divided and polarised like never before. Trust in the media is plummeting, and the fact checkers, who act like modern gate keepers of information, but go unsupervised themselves, seem to make matters worse rather than better.

    Dr David Seedhouse, Professor of Deliberative Practice at Aston University and a member of the Health Advisery and Recovery Team, HART(1), is concerned what it means for democracy when public debate is no longer public, but controlled by a small group of experts. Nowhere is this more clear, than in the decisions regarding the Corona pandemic.
    To address this problem, a new online democratic tool has been developed by Dr. Seedhouse and his colleagues to allow people of all views to have their say. In their words:
    Participants from any and every background are welcomed into this project. If you agree to participate:

    1) You will join a private group on this website: https://deliberativepractice.com (2)
    2) Over a one-week period you will be invited to offer your opinion on a key issue in the pandemic;
    3) At the start of the week you will be able to agree or disagree with a proposal for debate, and offer your reasons (this will take no more than five minutes or so);
    4) During the week you will be able to read others’ responses and discuss as much or as little with others as you wish;
    5) During the week balanced educational materials for and against the proposition will be available on the website;
    6) You will be able to witness a debate (live or recorded) with advocates for and against. If we can arrange it, you will be able to question them;
    7) At the end of the week you will be able to respond again to the key issue;
    8) We will review the results and changes in opinion and make a report available to all participants. We will endeavour to publish the results widely in public fora and academic channels;
    9) You can choose to be anonymous or not at your profile page. We will not publish any personal details outside the private group;
    10) We comply with GDPR requirements and will not use your information for any other reason than stated above.

    As soon as we have sufficient recruits we will begin. We are seeking participants from any and every background. All opinions are welcome. Nothing will be censored, hidden, or withheld. Everyone’s views and the patterns of their choices will be immediately available to all participants, and there are filters to enable those who wish to ‘deep dive’ into the data to do so.
