Ryan Allen, a father of young two boys, was stung by a bee on October 14, 2021, and went into an anaphylactic shock despite having no history of an allergy to bee stings. The Montgomery County K9 police officer was clinically dead for twenty minutes before he was revived by EMTs. The lack of oxygen to his brain during this time led to an anoxic brain injury, which the Shephard Center, a non-profit hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, says results when oxygen deprivation causes the death of brain cells....

Smith had been a slight underdog heading into the fight but, after three nip-and-tuck rounds, he made his class as a former world champion tell, flooring Eubank with a devastating combination of hooks and uppercuts from which he never recovered. For the 34-year-old Liverpudlian, a big-money finish to a distinguished career lies in wait, while Eubank — just a year his junior — must ponder where he goes next as one of the most talked-about figures in British boxing over the past decade risks hanging his gloves up with a lingering sense of unfulfillment....

If you break out in a rash, itching, or gastrointestinal issues after consuming beer, alcohol intolerance could be another possible explanation. A food (or, in this case, alcohol) intolerance is different from a food allergy in that intolerance does not involve the immune system. Since alcohol products originate from various sources, you may be intolerant to one kind of alcohol and not another. This article explains beer allergy symptoms, causes, risk factors, and diagnosis....

Ten years on, astronomers know what was wrong: their assumption that the universe is decelerating. By measuring supernovas, they hoped to discover whether the deceleration was large, portending a fiery fate, or small, implying an icy one. Either way, they assumed, there was some deceleration. The absurdity of negative mass blew that assumption out of the sky. The universe is not decelerating; it is accelerating. A mysterious energy is pushing apart galaxies and space itself, like a crazed toddler with bulging cheeks and infinite lung capacity blowing up the cosmic balloon faster and faster....

It’s finally dawning on scientists that there’s a problem here. Testing autistic kids’ intelligence in a way that requires them to engage with a stranger “is like giving a blind person an intelligence test that requires him to process visual information,” says Michelle Dawson of Rivière-des-Prairies Hospital in Montreal. She and colleagues therefore tried a different IQ test, one that requires no social interaction. As they report in the journal Psychological Science, autistic children’s scores came out starkly different than on the oral, interactive IQ test—suggesting a burning intelligence inside these kids that educators are failing to uncover....

According to the Associated Press, The Nasha Niva was banned from publication on its 115th anniversary on Tuesday after being labeled as extremists. Critics of the current Belarusian government, led by President Alexander Lukashenko, have compared it to North Korea. “The authorities are continuing to destroy Belarus’ independent media, calling everyone extremist,” said Belarusian Association of Journalists head Andrei Bastunets. “The situation in Belarus is worse than in Cuba or Iran and is getting close to North Korean standards....

Danuta Perednia was arrested February 28, four days after Putin invaded Ukraine. She was accused of posting the message online February 27. An unconfirmed report has stated that her partner is from Ukraine.

Far more controversial is the Creation Museum, the brainchild of an Australian evangelist named Ken Ham. Opening this week in northern Kentucky not far from the Cincinnati airport, the museum is devoted to the idea that the creation story in Genesis is literally true and that the Earth is just 6,000 years old. (Scientists put the age of the Earth at 4.5 billion years.) With the look of a natural-history museum and the feel of a theme park, the Creation Museum has robotic dinosaurs in its lobby and a special-effects theater in which the audience viewing, say, Noah’s flood gets wet....

Where is Lisa McVey today? On November 3, 1984, Lisa McVey Noland, 17, was abducted by serial killer Bobby Joe Long as she cycled home from work. She was held for 26 hours by Long in his Tampa, Florida flat, where she was blindfolded and raped repeatedly. McVey, who is now 54-years-old, survived the traumatic ordeal and tells of her experience to help other victims of sex crimes. In 2006 McVey published a book about her experience, titled Smoldering Embers, which later served as the foundation of the 2018 television film Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey....

The image was taken by a member of the Expedition 62 crew as the ISS flew over the Caribbean Sea in March. It was released by NASA as its Earth Observatory Image of the Day. Also known as the Great Blue Hole, the submarine sinkhole is around 1,000 feet wide and 400 feet deep, making it the largest in the world. It is located around 50 miles from the coast of Belize and was made famous in the 1970s after Jacques Cousteau visited and said it was one of the top diving sites in the world....

And in MMA, those clashes have been far and few between, with seemingly none of them being remotely competitive. We’ve seen then-UFC welterweight Georges St-Pierre pummel then-lightweight titleholder BJ Penn at UFC 94 to the point that his corner told the referee to stop the fight. St-Pierre also dominated Michael Bisping last November to win the middleweight title and most recently, this past July, light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier knocked out Stipe Miocic to win the heavyweight strap at UFC 226....

Fitch (31-7-1, one no-contest) was distraught after his unanimous decision victory over Paul Daley in his promotional debut last May because it marked only his fifth fight since losing to Rousimar Palhares in the World Series of Fighting in December 2013. Despite five straight victories since then, all Fitch wanted to do was compete and he didn’t know when his next opportunity would come.

Currently riding a 10-fight winning streak, his lone loss coming in 2017, Stots feels mentally and physically on top. That spells trouble for opponents. Danny Sabatello seems to have punched his ticket to take on Stots after Sabatello unanimously defeated Leandro Higo at Bellator 282 on June 24. A heated exchanged between Stots and Sabatello during the post-fight interview set the stage for a showdown later this year. Stots recently talked strategy with Zenger News and how he plans to beat Sabatello....
