I Taped Over My Phone Camera to Protect My Eyes. It Didn't Work.
Turning Off the Front Camera Does Not Protect Your Eyes At 1 a.m., the bedroom light is off. The phone screen is dimmed to its lowest setting, and it still feels harsh. You scroll to a post: turning off the front camera while scrolling can protect your eyes. You roll over, find a roll of black tape, cut a small strip, and cover the lens above the screen. The edge of the tape lifts, sticking to a speck of dust. You keep scrolling. Half an hour later, your eyes feel dry, and every blink feels like sandpaper scraping across them. The tape did not solve this.

Two surgeons, one operation: the model behind Catherine Hannan's practice
Catherine Hannan does something in the operating room that most plastic surgeons never do. She shares it. For major procedures at Washington Women Plastic Surgery , the Washington, D.C. practice she co-founded, Hannan scrubs in beside a second board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Lauren Patrick, and the two operate on the same patient at once. One plans a contour while the other checks symmetry. One closes while the other reads proportion. In a specialty where the surgeon is almost always a solo act, that arrangement is close to unheard of.

By 2050, 35 Million People a Year Will Hear “You Have Cancer.” Nearly Half of Those Deaths Don’t Have to Happen.
The 67% warning: behind the global cancer surge, a war that can be won In September 2026, the American Cancer Society and researchers from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organization, released a report. It projected that annual global cancer cases will rise from about 21 million in 2024 to 34 million by 2050, an increase of 67%. The WHO’s 2026 Global Cancer Situation Report offered a higher forecast. Without urgent action, annual cases could reach nearly 35 million by 2050.

PMOS is Not Just About Weight
If there’s one thing that will forever and ever make me rage - it’s weight stigma in reproductive medicine. For a large population of people, visiting the doctor for concerns of irregular periods, stubborn acne, or thinning hair is met with a frustratingly singular piece of advice: "Just lose some weight, and your symptoms will go away."

The Syphilis Crisis Japan Isn’t Talking About
In September 2026, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare updated its quarterly syphilis report. For all of 2025, there were 13,530 cases, more than a thousand fewer than in 2024. The number was moving downward, but penicillin was still out of stock in pharmacies. At a sexually transmitted infection clinic in Tokyo, a nurse typed “STELUES” into the inventory system and got “0.” She closed the page and took the next call. On the other end was a pregnant woman whose screening form said syphilis-positive. This scene is not an isolated case. It pulls two lines together: the infection curve and the supply-chain curve.

Why ‘White People Food’ Feels Like Freedom at Noon and a Cold Insult at Dinner
At noon, a line forms at the break room microwave. Someone pulls out braised pork rice. Steam clouds the plastic lid. The next person opens a clear box: two slices of whole-wheat bread, lettuce, chicken breast, cheese, a small cup of yogurt-garlic sauce. No steam. No oily smell. It takes three minutes to eat. One fork sits in the sink.

What Happens When You're the Only One Awake at 4 AM?
He shut down his computer at exactly 4:23 every morning. The precision came from his alarm, set for 4:20, his cue to "start winding down." He called it the sleep transition period: three minutes to boil water, turn off the lights, push the keyboard to the farthest corner of the drawer. Then he tiptoed from the study to the bedroom, seven steps down the hallway, landing on the balls of his feet so his slippers wouldn't slap against the floor.

One Down .. Millions To Go
Introduction This was where I was in 2017, doing a million steps every three months. That is probably still true today, although I have reduced my daily target to seven thousand steps. That may sound odd, but I believe it is always best to set achievable targets because when you hit them, it feels good, and when you surpass them, it feels better. The targets have also got to be meaningful, to sum people it might be walking up a flight of stairs, or even just getting out of bed.
