Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked with a hammer at the couple’s home in San Francisco

World Hot Topics Blog : Washington CNN  — 

Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked with a hammer at the couple’s home in San Francisco by a male assailant early Friday morning, law enforcement sources tell CNN.

World Hot Topics Blog


The assailant who attacked Paul Pelosi was searching for the speaker of the House, according to a source briefed on the attack. The intruder confronted the speaker’s husband in their San Francisco home shouting “Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?” according to the source.


Pelosi, 82, was hospitalized but is expected to make a full recovery, the Democratic speaker’s office said in a statement.


The US Capitol Police released a statement saying that they are assisting the FBI and the San Francisco Police “with a joint investigation” into the break-in at the Pelosi residence in California.


The statement provides further information on how law enforcement responded, saying that special agents with the USCP’s California Field Office “quickly arrived on scene, while a team of investigators from the Department’s Threat Assessment Section was simultaneously dispatched from the East Coast to assist the FBI and the San Francisco Police with a joint investigation.”

Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Nancy Pelosi, said the assailant is in custody and a motive is being investigated. The speaker was in Washington at the time of the attack, a spokesperson said.

“The Speaker and her family are grateful to the first responders and medical professionals involved, and request privacy at this time,” Hammill said in his statement.


The assailant entered the Pelosi residence through the back of the house, according two sources familiar with the early details of the incident.


With Speaker Pelosi away, there would not have been a security detail at the residence, according to one source familiar with protocol.

There may be video that US Capitol Police and law enforcement can review as there are security cameras at the home, according to two law enforcement sources.


President Joe Biden spoke with Speaker Pelosi, the White House said.


“The President is praying for Paul Pelosi and for Speaker Pelosi’s whole family. This morning he called Speaker Pelosi to express his support after this horrible attack,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.


She continued: “He is also very glad that a full recovery is expected. The President continues to condemn all violence, and asks that the family’s desire for privacy be respected.”

Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell said in a tweet on Friday he is “horrified and disgusted” by the reports that Pelosi was assaulted in his home.


“Grateful to hear that Paul is on track to make a full recovery and that law enforcement including our stellar Capitol Police are on the case,” the Kentucky Republican said.


The Pelosis have been married since 1963 and have five children.


Thank you

World Hot Topics Blog : Best Comments on What is your most replayed video game?

 

World Hot Topics Blog : Best Comments on What is your most replayed video game?

Readers reveal the non-multiplayer games they’ve completed the most, from Into The Breach to Final Fantasy 7.

World Hot Topics Blog most replayed video game
The subject for this week’s Hot Topic was suggested by reader Chevy Malibu (PSN ID), and while technically you could nominate a multiplayer game, we were more interested in games you come back to every few years to play through again.

To our surprise (and approval) XCOM 2 was by far the most popular pick, in fact we’ve seldom known a Hot Topic to be so dominated by a single game. Especially as many of the other choices were also turn-based strategies.


In deep
There’s never been an easier question to answer: it’s XCOM 2. I’ve played XCOM: Enemy Unknown a 
lot as well, and did a few run troughs of Enemy Within, but it’s XCOM 2 by a mile.

I have the platinum for XCOM 2 on PlayStation 4. Just getting that achievement took a ridiculous amount of playing time. That’s beside the fact I also own it on Xbox and Switch and have put in Sisyphean numbers on both those systems.

PlayStation a few years ago did a year end wrap where you could see your most played game, etc. I had 140 hours in that year and that wasn’t the platinum run year, I only started that in lockdown.

I’m way past addicted.

Hard achievement
My most replayed game would have to be Into The Breach. It’s roguelike nature lends itself to repeated runs, as you keep playing to finish a run and then try further runs to unlock new squads and unlock the in-game achievements. It’s weird to think that at first, I didn’t click with the game but then returned to it a couple of years later and now it is firmly my favourite indie game of all time.

I have put 60 hours into it on Switch which I know isn’t a lot for some people but for me to spend that much time with one game is unusual and I still have a few achievements to get. This is all without touching the new free DLC expansion either. I want to try and get all the in-game achievements before starting the DLC and I’m nearly there, just beating the game on Hard difficulty is the one to allude me so far.

It is quite a simple game to get your head around on easy but there is lots of strategy to consider on medium and hard difficulties, however it is easy to pick up and play if you have been away from the game for a while, so it’s one I like to return to every now and then for a few runs.

Now playing: God Of War (PS5) and Tinykin (Steamdeck)


Turn-based triumvirate
Turn-based strategies have practically ruined gaming for me. The holy trinity of Advance Wars, Into The Breach, and XCOM (especially 2) are so utterly compelling, with no two play throughs the same, that many other games I could be investing time into get side-lined. Astral Chain, Metroid Dread, and countless PlayStation 4 games, including Elden Ring, have suffered this fate.

While mentally taxing, Into The Breach is perfect after a hard day’s work, when you just want to wind down. I’ve played it so much that it’s left an almost ruinous ghostly image on my 65” OLED television.

I’ve played the Super Mario Galaxy games multiple times over. Their sheer inventiveness, staggering amount of variety, perfect gameplay mechanics, and utter joyousness make them masterclasses of form. Games so immersive that the barrier between reality and virtuality dissolves: you flow into and with them. In that space, of that time and physics, you really are Mario, you really are in another world.

However, second to the above trio, is the Splatoon series. A game that keeps on giving; it’s a real blast, as they say.
Ciara


Losing count

My game is XCOM 2, both the base game and the War Of The Chosen DLC. I first bought it on the PlayStation 4 and then the Switch. I must have played it six or seven times, frankly I’ve lost count.

It’s one of those few games that get close to perfection. The research and design of alien tech, an atmosphere of tension that’s up there with the Souls games, varied missions and you can just tell the thought and imagination put into it.

The original
There’s a few games I revisit fairly frequently, but the one I’ve overall probably spent the most time with is UFO: Enemy Unknown (the original XCOM game).

The main factor for replay ability is the research tree, allowing you to go different ways with the weapons and therefore tactics in the squad turn-based combat (the meat of the game). The time unit system is also a big factor – unlike most games of the genre, you can do multiple varied actions (or just the same one many times) with one character in a turn.

Each action costs time units, which are replenished at the beginning of the next turn. At the beginning of the game with rookies you don’t feel the benefit of this system so much, but with each mission, as long as the squad members play at least a small part in the mission and stay alive, their TU maximum will often increase – along with your action possibilities.

The excellent pixel art graphics and MIDI music do evoke nostalgia in me, but it’s the core gaming mechanics, which in some ways haven’t been bettered almost 30 years later, that are the big draw for me to keep coming back to it. The excellent open source OpenXcom fan project, which squashes original bugs and adds new quality of life features, also makes it very accessible today, blunting some of the flaws that could otherwise cause me to play it less often.

What makes a game replayable is a difficult question. The other games I replay all have different reasons. Zelda 2, I still adore the fast paced combat of. Prince Of Persia is a mix of nostalgia (my first ever game) and the strict momentum-based platforming, which remains very fresh. Breath Of Fire 3 has a unique ‘master’ system where you can push your character’s stats in the direction you prefer, allowing for varied team compositions.

Chrono Trigger has an excellent New Game+ system that allows you to totally break the game. I don’t think there’s a single answer to what makes a game replayable, there’s lots of possibilities that can keep you engaged with the game.

I don’t specifically consider it an important feature; replayability is cool, but sometimes I just want to play a point ‘n’ click game, like the recent Return To Monkey Island – I very much enjoyed it, will likely not play it for a long time, but consider my money well spent for the experience.

In the same way there are many games I wouldn’t want to replay because completing them was really hard and time consuming the first time round, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy the journey – for every horrific Bart Vs. The Space Mutants there’s a sublime Contra 3, which I completed on Hard mode many years ago and have no intention of ever doing again!
Lord Darkstorm


Game of Throne
Nuclear Throne. It’s simply the combination of weapons coupled with how well the weapons are executed that makes another playthrough easy to begin. Additionally, the game doesn’t end. There’s a loop that takes you to a more difficult run, so, it’s about how far you can reach. Perfect ingredients for replayability!

Nuclear throne, you’re the king.

World Hot Topics Blog : Can Wine Ward Off Cataracts?

World Hot Topics Blog 

Can Wine Ward Off Cataracts?

Cataracts are a threat to the vision of millions, but new study suggests a welcome aid to prevention: wine.

A few glasses of alcohol -- especially red wine -- a week may help reduce your risk of cataract surgery, new British research suggests.

"The fact that our findings were particularly evident in wine drinkers may suggest a protective role of polyphenol antioxidants, which are especially abundant in red wine," said study lead author Sharon Chua, a researcher from University College London Institute of Ophthalmology. Her team noted that grape skin is abundant in with healthy antioxidants, an antioxidant-like compound known as resveratrol, and other heathy chemicals called flavonoids.

Too much alcohol -- a drink a day or more -- wasn't great for eye health, however. In heavier drinkers, the odds for cataracts actually began to rise, according to the study.

Cataracts often develop with age and occur when the normally clear lens of the eye becomes clouded.

"Cataracts are one of the leading causes of reversible vision loss and blurry vision in the world," said Dr. Matthew Gorski, an ophthalmologist at Northwell Health in Great Neck, N.Y., who wasn't involved in the new study.

"Symptoms of cataracts include glare, halos, double vision, loss of contrast sensitivity, dimness of vision, or difficulty with depth perception and can lead to trouble reading or difficulty with driving during the day or night," he explained. "Cataract surgery is the only way to treat cataracts and is a low-risk, quick and efficient procedure to improve vision."

But could alcohol intake affect a person's odds for cataracts? To find out, Chua's group tracked the health and lifestyle of 490,000 people in the United Kingdom.

After taking into account factors known to affect cataract risk -- age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomics, weight, smoking and diabetes -- the researchers found that people who consumed about 6.5 standard glasses of wine per week (a level that's within guidelines for safe alcohol intake in the United States and United) were less likely to undergo cataract surgery.

Compared to people who abstained or drank other types of alcohol, wine drinkers were between 14% and 23% less likely to require cataract surgery, the study found.

Compared to people who abstained, moderate drinkers of white wine or champagne had a 10% lower risk, and moderate drinkers of beer and spirits had a 13% and 14% lower risk, respectively.

World Hot Topics Blog 

Daily or near daily consumption of beer or spirits was not associated with a lower risk.

The study also found that people who had any type of alcohol 1-2 and 3-4 times a week had a 7% and 6% lower risk of cataract surgery, respectively.

But people who drank alcohol daily or almost daily were 5% and 6% more likely to have cataract surgery than those who had alcohol 1-2 times and 3-4 times a week, respectively.

The study was published March 31 in the journal Ophthalmology.

The researchers noted that their findings don't prove cause and effect; it only shows a strong association between alcohol consumption and cataracts.

"Cataract development may be due to gradual damage from oxidative stress during aging," Chua said in a journal news release, so the antioxidants in wine might help counter that.

Still, Gorski agreed that the research couldn't prove alcohol promotes eye health.

"I think that this is an important study, however further studies are necessary to see if the findings will be repeated," he cautioned. "At this time, I will certainly not be telling my patients to drink small amounts of alcohol in order to decrease the chance of cataract surgery."

Dr. Mark Fromer is an ophthalmologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. Reading over the findings, he agreed that "further studies will be necessary to determine whether this association is causal in nature. If, in fact, low to moderate levels of alcohol intake has a causal effect on the reduction of cataract formation, it is likely that it occurs over a long period of time."

World Hot Topics Blog : Drugs urgently needed to fight superbugs.

World Hot Topics Blog

Drugs urgently needed to fight superbugs.

New antibiotics need to be developed urgently to combat 12 families of bacteria, the World Health Organization says, describing these "priority pathogens" as the greatest threats to human health.

The United National health agency said many of these bacteria have already evolved into deadly superbugs that are resistant to many antibiotics.
The bugs "have built-in abilities to find new ways to resist treatment" the WHO said, and can also pass on genetic material that allows other bacteria to become drug-resistant.

Governments need to invest in research and development (R&D)if new drugs are to be found in time, because market forces cannot be relied upon to boost the funds needed to fight the bugs, it said.

"Antibiotic resistance is growing, and we are fast running out of treatment options," the WHO's assistant director-general for health systems and innovation, Marie-Paule Kieny, said.

"If we leave it to market forces alone, the new antibiotics we most urgently need are not going to be developed in time."
World Hot Topics Blog
In recent decades, drug-resistant bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or Clostridium difficile, have become a global health threat, while superbug strains of infections such as tuberculosis and gonorrhoea are now untreatable.

The WHO has previously warned that many antibiotics could become totally redundant this century, leaving patients exposed to deadly infections and threatening the future of medicine.
The "priority pathogens" list published by the WHO on Monday has three rankings - critical, high and medium - according to how urgently new antibiotics are needed.


The critical group includes multidrug-resistant bacteria that pose a particular threat in hospitals, nursing homes, and other care facilities. These include Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas and various Enterobacteriaceae that can cause severe and often deadly infections such as pneumonia and septicaemia. The second and third tiers contain other increasingly drug-resistant bacteria that cause more common diseases such as gonorrhoea and food poisoning caused by salmonella.

The WHO said the list is intended to spur governments to put in place policies that incentivise basic and advanced R&D.

Georgia state House votes to allow guns on public college campuses

World Hot Topics Blog

Georgia state House votes to allow guns on public college campuses

By David Beasley

ATLANTA (Reuters) - Concealed handguns would be allowed on Georgia's public college campuses under a measure that cleared the state's House of Representatives on Monday and now heads to the Senate over the objections of university leaders.
The bill would let anyone 21 or over with a concealed weapons permit take their handguns on public college campuses but not into dormitories, fraternity and sorority houses or sporting events.
World Hot Topics Blog
"The House took a very clear position that the Second Amendment does not stop at the edge of a college campus," Speaker David Ralston, a Republican, said following passage of the bill, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

A Democratic opponent of the bill, State Representative Robert Trammell, said in a phone interview on Tuesday that he believed the U.S. Constitution's Second Amendment allowed handguns to be barred from "sensitive" places such as college campuses.
"In addition to the question of public safety, a weapon in a classroom environment is antithetical to the idea and mission of post-secondary education," Trammell said.
Supporters of the measure have cited several recent armed robberies of students in the library at Georgia State University in downtown Atlanta as evidence that students should be allowed to arm themselves.
World Hot Topics Blog
But Trammell said there is no data showing that campuses would be safer if students were allowed to carry weapons.

The Georgia Board of Regents, which governs the state's colleges and universities, opposes the bill, spokesman Charles Sutlive said. The Georgia legislature defeated a similar bill in 2014.
World Hot Topics Blog
Last week, the president of the University of Texas reluctantly approved plans that would allow licensed concealed handgun holders to bring pistols into classrooms, after the Texas legislature last year approved a "campus carry" law similar to the one proposed in Georgia.
Georgia's bill covers only public colleges. Texas allows private colleges to opt out of campus carry, and most of the best-known private schools have.

Should Obama Change His Approach to the Islamic State Group After Paris?

World Hot Topics Blog

Should Obama Change His Approach to the Islamic State Group After Paris?
The world is still reeling from deadly terrorist attacks in Paris last Friday, and with fears of a similar assault in the U.S., some have criticized President Barack Obama for dismissing calls to scale up U.S. military efforts against the Islamic State group and for doubling down on his approach thus far.  World Hot Topics Blog
"We have always understood that this will be a long-term campaign," the president said, speaking at the G-20 summit in Turkey on Monday. "There will be setbacks and there will be successes. The terrible events in Paris were obviously a terrible and sickening setback." Obama also rejected calls to put ground troops in Syria, saying, "It's best that we don't shoot first and aim later." The president's deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes underscored Obama's approach, saying, "We don't believe U.S. troops are the answer to the problem." Other Obama advisers, The New York Times reports, say the administration is considering several response options, which include aiding allies in the region, more airstrikes and raids by special operations forces. World Hot Topics Blog
But Republicans are slamming the president's game plan against the Islamic State group and response to the Paris attacks. 2016 GOP hopeful and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush admonished Obama, saying he "doesn't understand we're at war." South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, also a Republican presidential candidate, advocated for U.S. ground troops in the region, telling CNN that "without American boots on the ground in Syria and Iraq, we're going to get hit here at home. And if you don't understand that, you're not ready to be commander-in-chief, in my view."
Even Hillary Clinton, the front-runner in the Democratic presidential race, has insisted the U.S. amp up its efforts to defeat the Islamic State group. While she agreed that boots on the ground are not the answer, she refuted Obama's assertion that the group had been "contained" and called for increased airstrikes and a no-fly zone in northern Syria. She also noted the 50 special operations soldiers Obama ordered to Syria last month have not left yet and must be "immediately" deployed.
The president, for his part, announced new counterterrorism efforts on Monday to prevent another tragedy like Paris. "We're streamlining the process by which we share intelligence and operational military information with France," he said at the G-20 summit, adding that "we need to be doing everything we can to protect against more attacks and protect our citizens."

So should Obama change his approach to the Islamic State group after the Paris attacks? Here's the Debate Club's take:

Two Deaths Confirmed In Cucumber Salmonella Outbreak

World Hot Topics Blog

Two Deaths Confirmed In Cucumber Salmonella Outbreak


9/10/2015 3:45 PM ET

Two people have reportedly died as a result of a salmonella outbreak linked with cucumbers. The Centers for Disease Control has confirmed a total of 341 cases directly linked with the cucumbers, which were imported from Mexico.

The CDC released an official statement on the outbreak.
World Hot Topics Blog
"Seventy ill people have been hospitalized, and two deaths have been reported from California and Texas. Arizona, California, Montana, and Nevada isolated Salmonella from samples of cucumbers collected from various locations that were distributed by Andrew & Williamson Fresh Produce," the CDC explained.

"Consumers should not eat, restaurants should not serve, and retailers should not sell recalled cucumbers," they added. "If you aren't sure if your cucumbers were recalled, ask the place of purchase or your supplier. When in doubt, don't eat, sell, or serve them and throw them out."

What are the Symptoms of Salmonella

Most people infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most people recover without treatment. It is important to note that this outbreak is caused bySalmonella Poona.
World Hot Topics Blog

How Soon do Symptoms Appear After Exposure? 

Most people infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. 

What are the Complications of Salmonella Infections? 

In some people, the diarrhea may be so severe that they need to be hospitalized. In these patients, theSalmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream, and then to other body sites and can cause death unless the person is treated promptly with antibiotics. 
World Hot Topics Blog

Who is at Risk?


Children are the most likely to get salmonellosis. The rate of diagnosed infections in children less than five years old is higher than the rate in all other people. Children younger than 5 years of age, the elderly, and those people with weakened immune systems are more likely to have severe infections. It is estimated that approximately 400 persons in the United States die each year with acute salmonellosis.

Bacteria that can help fight cancer

World Hot Topics Blog

Bacteria that can help fight cancer
New York, June 9 (IANS) A toxin secreted by a water and food-borne bacterium that can cause lethal infections in persons with liver disease, has the potential to prevent the growth of tumours, says a new study by Northwestern Medicine scientists.

"A toxin protein from the bacterium Vibrio vulnificus can inhibit tumour cell growth by cutting the protein Ras," researchers said.
"Ras is important for cell proliferation in cancer, so the toxin could potentially be developed as a treatment for different types of tumours," said one of the researchers Karla Satchell, professor in microbiology-immunology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in the US.                  World Hot Topics Blog

"The bacterium uses the MARTX (multifunctional-autoprocessing repeats-in-toxin) toxin protein to inactivate Ras, increasing its own virulence and allowing it to spread throughout the host," the study said.

"It has been known that Ras has a role in cancer development and targeting Ras has been one of the hardest challenges of cancer research and drug discovery," Satchell said.
The findings appeared in the journal Nature Communications.

Toronto tunnel mystery solved, say police

World Hot Topics Blog

Toronto tunnel mystery solved, say police

Ottawa (AFP) - Toronto police said Monday they now know who dug a tunnel near a major sporting venue in the city -- a mystery that has been a source of widespread speculation and conspiracy theories.

In a statement, police said two young men stepped forward to acknowledge responsibility after authorities made a public plea for help to determine its purpose.

"The two men told investigators they built the tunnel for personal reasons," police said.

They added that their account has been verified, and that authorities "are satisfied there was neither criminal intent nor any threat to the people or city of Toronto." World Hot Topics Blog

The tunnel, which also is situated near Toronto's York University, was discovered by a wildlife official walking through woods. He spotted a piece of corrugated metal on the ground, lifted it up and found a passageway.

It was more than six feet (1.8 meters) high, almost three feet (0.9 meters) wide and about 33 feet (10 meters) long, and was hidden in a densely wooded area of the city, "well off the beaten path," deputy police chief Mark Saunders told a press conference last week.

Image released on February 24, 2015 by the Toronto Police shows the inside of a tunnel found near Yo …

Had it continued, the tunnel would have exited on the other side of a hill overlooking nearby tennis courts and a sports facility that will host the Pan American Games in July. World Hot Topics Blog

Its discovery provoked widespread speculation about who built it and why. 

National security officials were alerted, but suggestions the tunnel posed a threat were quickly dismissed. Police also said it was not a drug lab.

Online sleuths and media suggested it could be a survivalist's fallout shelter, a prank, or a niche home in Toronto's red hot condo market.

American horror writer Stephen King weighed in that it was likely a wormhole built by aliens.

Before it was filled in, the second in command of Canada's largest city police force described the interior of the tunnel as humid and warm.

The walls were lined with plywood and reinforced with wood framing. It was lit by an electric generator and a sump pump was used to keep it dry.

Police also found a bucket and pulleys and a wheelbarrow likely used in the dig.

As well, a rosary with a poppy attached was nailed to an inside wall, and discarded food and beverage containers point to someone having used the tunnel over the winter, Saunders said.

Ayurveda And Multitasking - World Hot Topics Blog



 World Hot Topics Blog

Ayurveda And Multitasking 

Multitasking is a key word for todays lifestyle. Each of us do it with our thoughts. 

is it really helpful for our body &  health ?

What exactly multitasking mean? 

How does it affects our health? 

Let's solve all this in Ayurveda way.

As it indicate, multitasking means doing more than one work at a time. 

Usually this refer to have more thoughts at a single time.

Thought is created by brain. Brain is located in skull, at upper most part of body. Brain works on glucose & oxygen supplied by blood. This blood is supplied by heart.

So, when we have a single thought brain is working in single way. As thought is brains own work it did not disturb its rythum. Heart too supply in a single rythumic way. This is a ideal situations for these vital organs. Nobody get hurts.
But, at multitasking, having more thoughts, brain have to work fast. Brain needs to work on several levels. At this point brains own rythum gets disturb. It requires more energy, so heart has to pump the blood towards the brain, against the gravity, which again requires more energy to heart. This all disturbed the working rhythm of brain & heart.

Surely, individual can't get hurt in a single incident. But because of this disturb rhythm these vital organ, VATT dosha get increase. Resulting in many unwanted sings like,

Loss of concentration
Head ache
Memory loss
Harmonal changes
Short temperness
Hyperactivity & Hyperness 
 World Hot Topics Blog

In many more cases Multitasking is a root cause for a disease. 

So, how can we avoid it.

First accept the thing that multitasking hurts. 

As you accept it, you will start to avoid it. 

In Ayurveda, there are two ways for it.

1) To improve strength of brain & heart with medication, good food, & by changing lifestyle.
2) To concentrate on single topic at a single time. If a second though comes in note it down, but don't keep in brain. Finish the first one & then go to second. 

This is called Switch on, Switch off method. This method looks difficult, but after some practice, you can enjoy the power of your brain. 

Hope this Helps to all busy Multitaskers
