CORRECTION The Oct. 6 Tip Sheet item “Strokes: New Risk Factor,” on the genetic causes of stroke, should have specified that deCODE Genetics obtained informed consent from subjects in 50 genetic studies, including its research on stroke.

The Biennial was lambasted in 1993 for being politically correct-one artist made admission buttons announcing that he was glad he wasn’t white-and it was yawned at in 1995 for taking refuge in a lot of mediocre painting. Now the Biennial heads back to the middle-guessing what’s going to be hot. The show’s cocurators, Whitney staffer Lisa Philips and Australian consultant Louise Neff, told an art magazine, “We didn’t want to do a sampler of every tendency in American art....

You want the NCAA’s money? It’s going to cost you. That radical change you wanted is coming, all right. The stipends, the guaranteed scholarships, the savings accounts for name and likeness. All of it. All you have to do now is play by the rules — today’s rules, and those in the pipeline. “While we are comfortable generating multiple ideas about an ’education first’ approach to intercollegiate athletics in the 21st Century,” Big Ten president Jim Delany said Tuesday in a prepared statement, “we won’t go it alone on any of the matters....

The June study, which was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, analyzed data from 1999 through 2018 in adults with diabetes—a condition that occurs when your blood sugar levels are too high. Researchers analyzed data from 6,653 participants who were at least 20 years old, not pregnant, and were diagnosed with the condition. They found that the percentage of people who were able to control their blood sugar—or glycemic control—increased from 44% between 1999 and 2002 to 57....

In a study conducted two years ago, the same team of researchers found a similar connection between the flu shot and a 17% reduced risk of Alzheimer’s. The latest study involved a very large sample size of nearly 2 million U.S. adults aged 65 and older. The 40% risk reduction was surprising, according to Paul Schulz, MD, a co-author of the study and director of the Neurocognitive Disorders Center at McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston....

However, some experts say that obesity is likely a far more complex process and that the “calories in, calories out” theory of weight gain is an oversimplification. The causes of the obesity epidemic in the U.S. are still being researched, but a new study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that a major driving force behind it might be what we eat rather than how much we eat....

In April and May 2020, researchers examined statistics from a nationally representative sample of the U.S. adult population. Their goal was to compare mental distress people felt during the pandemic with the highest level of mental distress the same people felt during the 12-month period prior. The pre-COVID-19 evaluation was performed in February 2019 and questioned respondents about the worst month of the past year. The COVID-19 evaluation was administered in May 2020 and specified the past 30 days....

The video, submitted by a person named Kayla Calkins, shows a vehicle driving through a storm in Lakin, a city in the state’s southwest region. The camera captures a few trucks and the overhead signals of a railroad crossing. Country music plays through the vehicle’s speakers. However, the swirling dust quickly swallows those objects. The sound of dust and debris hitting the vehicle drowns out the music. The headlights of an oncoming vehicle briefly reveal themselves just before the video ends....

You may think that longer shorts will make you look taller, but they tend to have the opposite effect. Longer shorts usually look best on longer legs. [2] X Research source Just like long trunks, short swimming trunks go in and out of fashion with the times. If you’re not worried about that kind of thing, focus on the functionality of different lengths of swimming trunks. Choose trunks that are just a smidge shorter than the casual shorts you typically wear, especially if you’re worried about any tan lines peeking out below your shorts....

“Complaining about gas prices? Have some perspective,” the USA Today columnist Michael J. Stern tweeted over the weekend along with a photo of a bomb-ravaged town in Ukraine. “[W]atching cable news, and not just Fox, you would think the biggest story in the world right now is gas prices in the US” tweeted another journalist. “Low gas prices was a nice upside consequence of the cataclysmic 2020 economic meltdown where 20% of Americans had no job, all the stores were closed, and 380,000 of us died,” was Senator Chris Murphy’s way of gaslighting you out of noticing your gas bill....
