  • Shingles is awful, but there may be another reason to get vaccinated. It may fight dementia
    apnews.com
    A doctor looks at PET brain scans at Banner Alzheimers Institute in Phoenix on Aug. 14, 2018. (AP Photo/Matt York, File)2025-04-02T15:26:05Z WASHINGTON (AP) A vaccine to fight dementia? It turns out there may already be one shots that prevent painful shingles also appear to protect aging brains.A new study found shingles vaccination cut older adults risk of developing dementia over the next seven years by 20%.The research, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, is part of growing understanding about how many factors influence brain health as we age and what we can do about it.Its a very robust finding, said lead researcher Dr. Pascal Geldsetzer of Stanford University. And women seem to benefit more, important as theyre at higher risk of dementia.The study tracked people in Wales who were around 80 when receiving the worlds first-generation shingles vaccine over a decade ago. Now, Americans 50 and older are urged to get a newer vaccine thats proven more effective against shingles than its predecessor. The new findings add another reason for people to consider rolling up their sleeves, said Dr. Maria Nagel of the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, who studies viruses that infiltrate the nervous system. The virus is a risk for dementia and now we have an intervention that can decrease the risk, Nagel said.With Alzheimers and other forms of dementia on the rise in an aging population, the implications of the study are profound, Dr. Anupam Jena, a Harvard physician and health economist, wrote in a Nature commentary. What is shingles?Anyone whos had ever had chickenpox nearly everybody born before 1980 harbors that virus for the rest of their life. It hides in nerves and can break out when the immune system weakens from illness or age, causing painful, blister-like sores typically on one side of the body that last for weeks whats called shingles.About 1 in 3 Americans will get shingles, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While most recover, it sometimes causes severe complications. If it infects an eye it can cause vision loss. Up to 20% of shingles patients suffer excruciating nerve pain months or even years after the rash itself is gone. Whats the link between shingles and dementia?Its not clear exactly how Alzheimers and other types of dementia form. But certain viruses that sneak inside the nervous system especially members of the herpes family including the chickenpox virus -- have long been suspected of adding to genetic and other factors that make people more vulnerable.Last summer, doctors at Bostons Brigham and Womens Hospital reported that an episode of shingles could raise someones risk of dementia by about 20%.Partly, its because that virus can cause inflammation, bad for organs including the brain. It also can directly infect blood vessels in the brain, causing clots and impeding blood flow, said Colorados Nagel, a risk both for strokes and for dementia.More intriguing, her lab also discovered shingles can spur formation of a sticky protein called amyloid thats one of the hallmarks of Alzheimers. Do shingles vaccines protect against dementia?Adults who get recommended vaccines tend to have other brain-healthy habits including exercising and a good diet, which made it hard to prove an extra benefit.Stanfords Geldsetzer took advantage of a natural experiment in Wales, which opened shingles vaccinations with an age limit: anyone 80 or older on Sept. 1, 2013, was ineligible but those still 79 could squeeze in. Comparing seniors who just met or just missed that cutoff would mimic a research study that randomly assigned otherwise similar people to be vaccinated or not.Geldsetzers team analyzed more than 280,000 medical records and found evidence that vaccination did offer some protection against dementia. At the time, people received a first-generation vaccine called Zostavax.An important next step is testing whether todays vaccine, Shingrix, also offers dementia protection, Nagel said. Another research group recently reported some evidence that it does. Vaccine manufacturer GSK last month announced a collaboration with UK health officials to track seniors cognitive health as they get vaccinated.Geldsetzer also hopes to further study that earlier shot to see if the type of vaccine might make a difference. What are the shingles vaccine recommendations?Shingrix is a onetime vaccination, given in two doses a few months apart. The CDC recommends it starting at age 50 for most people but also for younger adults with certain immune-weakening conditions including those who years ago got that first-generation shingles vaccine. Fewer than 40% of eligible Americans have gotten vaccinated.Side effects including injection-site pain and flu-like fever and achiness are common. The CDC cautions if youre currently fighting another virus such as the flu or COVID-19, to wait on a shingles shot until youre well.While theres no proven prevention for dementia, doctors also recommend other commonsense steps to lower the risk. Stay socially and cognitively active. And control high blood pressure and, for people with diabetes, high blood sugar, both of which are linked to cognitive decline. -The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institutes Science and Educational Media Group and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

  • Wild weather expected Wednesday gets a rare high-risk designation -- the most severe category
    apnews.com
    FILE- In this May 22, 2011 file photo, emergency personnel walk through a severely damaged neighborhood after a tornado hit Joplin, Mo. (AP Photo/Mark Schiefelbein, File)2025-04-02T14:56:00Z ATLANTA (AP) U.S. government forecasters are using a relatively rare high-risk designation the highest category they use to warn that a major tornado outbreak appears likely Wednesday in an area thats home to about 2.5 million people.That area most at risk of catastrophic weather on Wednesday includes parts of west Tennessee including Memphis; northeast Arkansas; the southeast corner of Missouri; and parts of western Kentucky and southern Illinois.The Norman, Oklahoma-based Storm Prediction Center says that multiple long-track EF3+ tornadoes, appear likely. Tornadoes of that magnitude are among the strongest on the Enhanced Fujita scale, used to rate their intensity.Historically, the high-risk designation has been used sparingly, but it did appear just a couple of weeks ago to warn of a deadly tornado outbreak in mid-March. Magenta marks areas at highest riskThe Storm Prediction Center uses five categories to warn of expected severe weather, ranging from marginal to high. Its forecast maps are color-coded, with the lowest risk areas in green and the highest shown in magenta.The high risk designation is used when severe weather is expected to include numerous intense and long-tracked tornadoes or thunderstorms producing hurricane-force wind gusts and inflicting widespread damage, according to the agency.On many days when the high risk designation was used in recent years, the forecasts became reality. 2024 Kansas and Oklahoma tornado outbreakOn May, 6, 2024, the Storm Prediction Center assigned the high-risk category to parts of Kansas and Oklahoma, warning of multiple significant tornadoes along potentially long paths.The forecast was prescient, as dozens of tornadoes gouged the landscape. One of the strongest twisters tore through the small town of Barnsdall, Oklahoma and then struck the larger community of Bartlesville. Aerial video showed many homes reduced to piles of rubble. About 25 people were rescued from homes where buildings had collapsed on or around them, the towns mayor said at the time. 2023 Mississippi River Valley tornadoesOn March 31, 2023, the Storm Prediction Center outlined two areas along the Mississippi River Valley at high risk for tornadoes.Hours after that forecast was issued, multiple twisters collapsed a theater roof during a heavy metal concert in Illinois and shredded homes and shopping centers in Arkansas.A roof collapse at the Apollo Theatre in Belvidere, Illinois, killed one person and injured more than two dozen others. About 260 people were in the venue at the time, the local fire chief said.In all, 146 tornadoes from the 2023 outbreak were confirmed, making it the third-largest tornado outbreak on record in the U.S., the National Weather Service said. More than two dozen people were killed and dozens of others injured. JEFF MARTIN Martin covers breaking news in the southeastern U.S. for The Associated Press. He is based in Atlanta. mailto

  • T-Mobile Shows Users the Names, Pictures, and Exact Locations of Random Children
    www.404media.co
    On Tuesday, some parents lost the ability to track the locations of their children using a T-Mobile tracking device and app and instead were shown the exact locations of random other children around the country, 404 Media has learned.T-Mobile sells a small GPS tracker for parents called SyncUP, which they can use to track the locations of young children who dont have cell phones yet. Jenna, a parent who uses SyncUP to keep track of her three-year-old and six-year-old children, logged in Tuesday and instead of seeing if her kids had left school yet, was shown the exact, real-time locations of eight random children around the country, but not the locations of her own kids. 404 Media agreed to use a pseudonym for Jenna to protect the privacy of her kids.Im not comfortable giving my six-year-old a phone, but he takes a school bus and I just want to be able to see where he is in real time, Jenna said. I had put a 500 meter boundary around his school, so I get an alert when hes leaving.Jenna sent 404 Media a series of screenshots that show her logged into the app, as well as the locations of children located in other states. In the screenshots, the address-level location of the children are available, as is their name and the last time the location was updated. In many cases, the location updated time said just now or one minute ago. It is clear the tracked people are children because their profile pictures show images of young kids wearing backpacks, and many of the locations shown are schools around the country.As a mother, this is super alarming to me, and I raised flags right away [with T-Mobile] and nobody took me seriously there, Jenna said. I was probably shown more than eight children. I would log in and I couldnt see my children but I could see a kid in California. I refreshed and then I had no trackers, and then I refreshed again and would see a different child.Jenna called T-Mobile support April 1 and shared part of the audio with 404 Media. In the audio, a T-Mobile employee said they filed a ticket but had no information about what happened. We are now aware of the problem and were trying to find a way to fix the problem, they say. Ive asked what we can do to see your kids SyncUp trackers because you cant see your own kids trackers but somebody elses. Well just need to wait for a little bit.Jenna also emailed T-Mobile and asked what happened but has not heard back. A request for comment was acknowledged by T-Mobile but it did not immediately provide one.Jenna is not alone. On Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook, parents say that they were also shown the locations of random people instead of their children or partners. T-Mobile also offers a device called SyncUp DRIVE, which is a dedicated car tracking device. In a Reddit thread called SyncUp sharing locations of other users, several posters said that they were being shown other peoples locations on their SyncUp DRIVE. Never have I ever seen this, one post says. I went to check on a vehicle location and someone else's car is on my account. I closed it and checked again. A new person's car shows up. Nowhere does it show the devices on our account and it just pulling other cars and placing them there. The more I play with this, the more it seems to be a serious issue with TMO. There is no account hack or anything else. Every time I open the app, I get a different person's vehicle.Another poster said that the app keeps randomly adding and removing cars that arent my own. A third said same thing happening to me. Random cars, random locations.One Redditor told 404 Media I could see other people's vehicles listed and get the info on each. The vehicles listed changed every time I checked the app. I reached out to tforce on Twitter and was told they would escalate the issue. Shortly after the app started correctly only showing my vehicles.Yall need to figure out your systems because I should not be able to see other peoples children on my syncup locations and not be able to see MY OWN CHILD, one Twitter user said. Im getting locations for kids idk from different states but cant get my sons location. Another person on Twitter wrote I have 3 kids with watches. No visibility to them today though T-Life app. However, another person could see one of my children. They called the principal at her school to let her know. I spoke with this person and found out she had access to 20 people.What happened with SyncUp is reminiscent of a bug that happened with Ubiquiti home surveillance cameras in December 2023, when some users logged into their apps and were being shown live footage from other peoples cameras.An inherent risk with any type of app that allows users to track or spy on their kids or spouse is that once this data exists it can be leaked or hacked by bad actors. For years, weve reported on this exact thing happening, including a case in 2018 where an app that sells spyware to parents left the pictures of hundreds of monitored children online.T-Mobile announced last month that some of its older SyncUp DRIVE devices would lose many features. Jenna told 404 Media that this morning she was again correctly showed the locations of her children.

  • Kelly Clarkson explains the wink driving lesbians wild and says she'd go for an 'older woman'
    www.pride.com
    More than a month after Kelly Clarkson left Sapphics and straight women alike in shambles, the singer-turned-talk show host is finally explaining the wink people couldnt stop talking about.On Wednesdays episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, guest Whitney Cummings playfully took over hosting duties when she grilled Clarkson on her drool-worthy rendition of The Outfield's Your Love, which had lesbians weak in the knees and straight women questioning their sexuality. In the Kellyoke moment that went viral on TikTok back in February, Clarkson sings the lyrics, You know I like my girls a little bit older, and offers the audience a flirty wink. If you somehow missed the moment, we suggest checking it out pronto! Dont worry, well wait.@nomadd.7That wink though. #kellyclarkson #fyp #trendingvideoTaking over Clarksons role on the show, Cummings pointed out just how earth-shattering her rendition of the song was to women on social media, Do you know that your cover of Lose Your Love has broken the internet?When Clarkson admits she found out it blew up from her shows musical director.Blew up? No, no women are leaving their husbands, Cummings announced to a cheering audience.So I heard its because of the wink, Clarkson said while playfully winking at the comedian.Dont wink at me Kelly! She just winked at me. Im not strong enough! Cummings responded before explaining the viral moment to the audience by saying, She winks at the camera like a home-wrecker!Clarkson said she started adding winks into performances to be cute and playful with the audience so she started more and more. So now I incorporate like a wink here and there. But I happened to do it on a line that it was on purpose. It was cute, she explained.It was a cute line and if I was a lesbian, I would shoot for an older woman, Im just saying, Clarkson said, giving sapphics everywhere hope.

  • Think your privacy is safe on the gay dating apps? This data leak could change your mind
    www.pride.com
    In whats quickly becoming one of the most alarming digital privacy failures of the year, a series of LGBTQ+, fetish, and sugar dating apps have been exposed for leaking troves of sensitive user data and the worst breach yet might be an app called Gay Daddy.Touted on the App Store as a private and anonymous space for gay and bisexual men over 40, Gay Daddy: 40+ Date & Chat was found by Cybernews researchers to be leaking over 50,000 user profiles and more than 124,000 private messages, including locations, names, HIV status, relationship details, and explicit photos. The database was so unprotected that anyone with a little technical savvy could snoop through users most intimate content without restriction.Users expect the app to be discreet, but it is completely the opposite, Aras Nazarovas, a Cybernews security researcher, said in the April 2 report. The leak stemmed from hardcoded credentials in the apps code and a misconfigured Firebase database a back-end tool developers use to manage things like logins and chat features. Gay Daddy also leaked its cloud storage bucket, authentication keys, and other sensitive endpoints, potentially giving attackers long-term access to its users' data.The apps developer, Surendra Kumar, did not respond to Cybernews request for comment, though the leaking database has since been taken offline. Still, the damage may be done especially for queer users in countries where being gay can mean harassment, arrest, or worse.This data leak compromises app users security, allowing threat actors to read private messages and obtain contact lists and location data, said Nazarovas. Not only does this expose individuals to cyber threats, but also to risks of financial, psychological, and even physical harm, particularly given the prevailing stigmas surrounding homosexuality in certain countries. And Gay Daddy wasnt alone. Cybernews also revealed on April 1 that apps like BDSM People, CHICA, TRANSLOVE, PINK, and BRISH many owned by a single developer, Mobile Apps Developers Limited (MAD) were all found leaking private user photos due to similarly shoddy coding practices. In total, more than 1.5 million explicit images were exposed, many of which were shared in private chats or used for profile verification.While none of the leaks directly exposed names or emails, experts warn that open-source intelligence tools like reverse image searches make it possible to identify individuals raising the risk of blackmail, harassment, and outing.As Nazarovas put it to Metro, Images accessed by bad actors could have been used for blackmail and intimidation. Finding out that these images were leaked would likely cause distress, trust issues, as well as other harm to the users mental health.With LGBTQ+ users already vulnerable to targeted attacks, the implications of such a sweeping breach are chilling. At a time when queer lives are increasingly politicized and policed, privacy should not be optional.

  • Musk could be headed for a Washington exit after turbulent times at Trumps DOGE
    apnews.com
    Elon Musk speaks at a town hall Sunday, March 30, 2025, in Green Bay, Wis. (AP Photo/Jeffrey Phelps)2025-04-02T17:19:59Z WASHINGTON (AP) DOGEs days appear to be numbered.Elon Musk recently suggested that he will be done with his work in the near future. President Donald Trump told reporters this week that at some point, hes going to be going back to running his companies. As far as the Department of Government Efficiency, Trump said it will end.All of that talk was before Musk faced a setback Tuesday in Wisconsin, where voters rejected his choice for a state Supreme Court candidate despite more than $21 million in personal donations and his campaign appearance over the weekend. There are more problems for the billionaire entrepreneur at Tesla, his electric automaker, which saw a 13% drop in sales in the first three months of the year.The White House has not disclosed any clear timeline for closing down DOGE, and the government cost-cutting organization was never supposed to become a permanent fixture in Washington. But it could be reaching a conclusion faster than anticipated. DOGE was originally intended to operate until July 4, 2026. Now there are signs that it already is winding down. DOGE employees have been shifted to various federal agencies, which are supposed to take the lead on cutting costs. Government-wide layoffs are underway to accomplish some of the goals laid out by Musk and Trump. We think probably over the next two or three months, well be pretty much satisfied with the people that are working hard and want to be members of the administration, Trump said last week. The potential end of DOGE does not mean Trump will stop shaking up Washington. But it appears the administrations efforts will be entering a new phase that is less focused on Musk, whose chain saw-wielding work as a presidential adviser made him a political lightning rod.DOGE was initially envisioned as an independent advisory panel, with Musk sharing leadership with Vivek Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur. Ramaswamy dropped out and is running for Ohio governor, and DOGE became part of the government. It was stocked with Musks allies, who were dispatched throughout the bureaucracy to cancel contracts, access sensitive data and push for cuts. Musk presumably has a ticking clock on his tenure. He was hired as a special government employee, which means he can only work 130 days in a 365-day time period.I think we will have accomplished most of the work required to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars within that time frame, Musk told Bret Baier of Fox News on March 27. So far DOGE is well short of that target, according to its own calculations, which have been criticized as inflated and inaccurate. Musk did not commit to leaving the administration by any particular date, and it is unclear how the administration is tracking Musks time. On May 30, it will be 130 days since Trumps inauguration on Jan. 20.Trump told reporters on Monday in the Oval Office that Id keep him as long as I could keep him and hes a very talented guy.The Republican president was known for explosive breakups with top advisers during his first term, but anyone hoping for such a split with Musk has been disappointed. I think hes amazing, but I also think hes got a big company to run, Trump said. And so, at some point, hes going to be going back.Asked if DOGE would continue without Musk, Trump demurred. He said Cabinet officials have worked closely with Musk and may keep some of the DOGE people at their agencies.But at a certain point I think it will end, Trump said.Musks poll numbers lag behind Trumps, which Democrats believe they were able to use to their advantage in Wisconsin. Susan Crawford defeated Brad Schimel, who Musk supported, and ensured the state Supreme Courts liberal majority. In the closing days of that campaign, Musk described the race as important for the future of civilization. He struck a different tone afterward.I expected to lose, but there is value to losing a piece for a positional gain, Musk wrote on X at 3:13 a.m. CHRIS MEGERIAN Megerian covers the White House for The Associated Press. He previously wrote about the Russia investigation, climate change, law enforcement and politics in California and New Jersey. twitter mailto

"In all seriousness, I feel so fortunate to have the support of my family, teammates and club throughout this process. The beauty of life is its unpredictable nature. While I've found myself on the adverse side of this unpredictability at the moment, I know this experience will be another colorful chapter of my journey. I have no doubt this year will bring me unexpected joys despite this setback."Last year, with Davidson, Gotham FC finished third in the NWSL with 17 wins, five draws, and four losses. They lost in the league semifinals to the Washington Spirit in penalty kicks.In 65 appearances for the USWNT, she has 3 goals and seven assists, and won the 2019 Women's World Cup and a gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.See on InstagramDavidson, who recently got married to her former Stanford teammate, Alison Jahansouz, is one of the few out players currently on the U.S. National Women's Team. She recently spoke about what it feels like to represent the U.S. right now when the LGBTBQ+ community is under such heavy attack from the current presidential administration."It's always such an honor to play for this team and to represent this country, but it's kind of hard to grapple with what country am I representing right now? Like am I proud of what our country's doing and who we are?" she told The Women's Game podcast. "And in times like this I think about that more, and how this team has been able to represent out community and been able to push for rights for many different minority groups. That is something that I take with me whenever I put this jersey on is the importance of someone being able to see me in this jersey and say, 'Oh, thats someone like me, and I can do that as well.' I want people to look at our team and say 'that is representative of America,' the queerness, the people of color, the strong women, that is what our country is about, and to be able to see that representation on this team is so important."
