Two new observational studies looked at the benefits of plant-centered diets. Both studies followed participants for more than a decade to track health and food choice trends.

Not all data breaches are created equal. None of them are good, but they do come in varying degrees of bad. And given how regularly they happen, it’s understandable that you may have become inured to the news. Still, a T-Mobile breach that hackers claim involved the data of 100 million people deserves your attention, especially if you’re a customer of the “un-carrier.”
Not all data breaches are created equal. None of them are good, but they do come in varying degrees of bad. And given how regularly they happen, it’s understandable that you may have become inured to the news. Still, a T-Mobile breach that hackers claim involved the data of 100 million people deserves your attention, especially if you’re a customer of the “un-carrier.”
As first reported by Motherboard on Sunday, someone on the dark web claims to have obtained the data of 100 million from T-Mobile’s servers and is selling a portion of it on an underground forum for 6 bitcoin, about $280,000. The trove includes not only names, phone numbers, and physical addresses but also more sensitive data like social security numbers, driver’s license information, and IMEI numbers, unique identifiers tied to each mobile device. Motherboard confirmed that samples of the data “contained accurate information on T-Mobile customers.”
The last sentence of this article is telling: “if the data’s legitimate, this would be T-Mobile’s sixth known breach in four years.”

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurological disorder. In 2020, around 5.8 million people in the United States were living with the condition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Early symptoms include memory problems and confusion, while more severe symptoms include an inability to communicate and seizures. There is no way to prevent, cure, or stop the progression of AD.
Previous studies have found that cognitively stimulating activities, such as reading, have links with a lower risk of cognitive decline. Some say these activities delay the onset of cognitive symptoms related to AD by enhancing cognitive reserve — a reserve of thinking abilities, which is different between individuals, developed over the lifespan.

In case you haven’t noticed, mobility is kind of a big deal for us in the HIANG. From the stealth fighters that protect our opens skies to the support Airmen on the ground, we’re all prepared to ‘hit the road’ in one way or another.
Members of the 297th Air Traffic Control Squadron validated their ability to set up a mobilized ATC package as part of an annual training event. With this skillset, maintainers and controllers have the means to accumulate, transport and set up heavy tower equipment within a few days, making sure that pilots can transit through austere environments whenever called upon.
In some of our most recent training events, these professionals demonstrated their capabilities on multiple Pacific Islands such as Kauai, Midway and Guam.
After wrapping up this annual field training event, many of these Drill-Status Airmen will return to esteemed career fields in which they apply their technical credentials toward rewarding career paths.

Technology is key to staying close to relatives and friends. Tablets have brought video chat and internet surfing from relatively difficult-to-see phone screens to much bigger ones.
So what does this mean? You don’t have to put on glasses to see your grandkids. And you can hear them giggle.
This guide will help you select the right device if you’re challenged with hearing loss, poor vision, scant tech experience or all of the above, but still want to use mobile technology. We also consider the needs of people with arthritis and memory loss.
If memory problems are seriously affecting your daily life, they could be early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. While the number of symptoms you have and how strong they are vary, it’s important to identify the early signs.
