    Nasa reveals major breakthrough about the Moon in highly anticipated announcement
    https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/nasa-moon-announcement-today-news-water-lunar-surface-wet-b1346311.html
    Water has been definitively found on the Moon, Nasa has said, and there are a set of “water traps” that could hold it stably. The research suggests that water could be distributed right across the lunar surface, not just trapped in the cold, shadowed parts of the Moon. The discovery is a major breakthrough in the mission to explore the rest of the solar system, as well as giving a better understanding of the lunar surface. It also raises new questions about how exactly the water got there, and how it is able to survive the harsh conditions on the Moon. Scientists had previously thought that any water on the sunlit side of the Moon would immediately be lost. But it appears that it is in fact present, and not just on the parts that are shaded from the sun.

    Trump Wants COVID-19 Media Coverage To Be Illegal: 'Should Be An Election Law Violation'
    https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-wants-covid-19-media-coverage-to-be-illegal-should-be-an-election-law-violation
    President Donald Trump argued on Monday morning that it ought to be against the law for the news media to cover the pandemic ahead of the elections as the COVID-19 death toll in the U.S. surpasses 225,000. “We have made tremendous progress with the China Virus, but the Fake News refuses to talk about it this close to the Election,” he tweeted. “COVID, COVID, COVID is being used by them, in total coordination, in order to change our great early election numbers. Should be an election law violation!” Amid his failure to address the pandemic, Trump has publicly griped several times about the media reporting on COVID-19, even going as far as calling CNN “dumb bastards” for doing so.

    Trump’s conservative imprint on the federal judiciary gives Democrats a playbook — if they win
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/courts_law/court-barrett-senate-trump/2020/10/25/d9eed9c0-16bc-11eb-befb-8864259bd2d8_story.html
    President Trump’s first-term record on the federal judiciary — which will reach its apex Monday with the expected confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett as his third Supreme Court justice — will be difficult to roll back even if Democrats win both the White House and the Senate majority. But the pipeline of conservative judges and the fast-track procedures used by Republicans to confirm them gives a potential President Joe Biden and a Democratic-led Senate a rough playbook to try to install their own stream of liberal nominees. The judicial legacy set by Trump but engineered primarily by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) includes several significant milestones, including the trio on the Supreme Court and the fact that for the first time in 40 years, there are no openings on the circuit courts. That has been a monumental achievement for a majority leader whose mantra has been “leave no vacancy behind” and a president who simply just likes to win.

    Fake Smiles
    https://surgeonshallmuseums.wordpress.com/2020/05/15/fake-smiles/
    In this blog our Human Remains Conservator, Cat Irving, delves into the history of dentures. In the twenty-first century we are awash with options to make our teeth look better. They can be whitened, straightened, crowned and veneered, and there are a range of options for replacing missing teeth, whether these be devices worn over the gums or actually implanting them directly into the bone.

    A Voting Rights Battle in a School Board ‘Coup’
    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/25/us/voting-rights-georgia.html
    For Black residents of Sumter County, the fight for representation echoed the civil rights era. For white residents, it reflected the anxiety, made manifest by the Trump era, of maintaining power over institutions even without the votes to do so.

    How the Trump campaign used big data to deter Miami-Dade’s Black communities from voting
    https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article246429000.html
    Donald Trump’s team knew they couldn’t win the 2016 election simply by persuading people to vote for Trump. They also had to make sure Hillary Clinton supporters didn’t come out to the polls. So the campaign and its allies used big data to target Black communities along Miami-Dade County’s historically disenfranchised Interstate 95 corridor. There, residents became some of the 12.3 million unwitting subjects of a groundbreaking nationwide experiment: A computer algorithm that analyzed huge sums of potential voters’ personal data — things they’d said and done on Facebook, credit card purchases, charities they supported, and even personality traits — decided they could be manipulated into not voting. They probably wouldn’t even know it was happening. Internally, Trump’s staff described this part of their operation with a term that went beyond the usual strategy of negative campaigning. They called it “deterrence.”

    Utah’s hospitals prepare to ration care as a record number of coronavirus patients flood their ICUs
    https://www.sltrib.com/news/2020/10/25/with-coronavirus-cases/
    With new coronavirus cases shattering records on a daily basis, Utah’s hospitals are expected to begin rationing care in a week or two. That’s the prediction of Greg Bell, president of the Utah Hospital Association, who said administrators of the state’s hospitals confronted Gov. Gary Herbert on Thursday with a grim list: Criteria they propose doctors should use if they are forced to decide which patients can stay in overcrowded intensive care units. Under the criteria, which would require Herbert’s approval, patients who are getting worse despite receiving intensive care would be moved out first. In the event that two patients' conditions are equal, the young get priority over the old, since older patients are more likely to die.

    Academics, journalists and First Amendment lawyers are rallying behind New York University researchers in a showdown with Facebook over its demand that they halt the collection of data showing who is being micro-targeted by political ads on the world’s dominant social media platform. The researchers say the disputed tool is vital to understanding how Facebook FB, +2.39% has been used as a conduit for disinformation and manipulation.

    Sorry, but you need to upgrade your phone every year now
    https://eu.usatoday.com/story/tech/2020/10/24/get-over-it-you-need-upgrade-your-phone-every-year-now-prove/3735464001/
    You may not like what I'm going to say, so let me just spit (type) it out: It's time to just keep your phones for a year. Period. Upgrade every year. As good as your old phone is. Because upgrading makes more economic sense. Why fight it? Apple, Samsung and Google do such an amazing job every 12 months of persuading us why we need to ditch the old model for the new. And those new iPhone 12 and 12 Pro models were just released Friday. Did you get yours yet? There are many websites online that will buy your old phones from you. Apple, Best Buy and the wireless carriers play the trade-in game, too. Or you can sell it yourself on eBay or Craigslist. But in order to get good money for the device, it needs to be the latest model.
