A recent international survey from Oxford’s Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism found that in almost every country surveyed, people’s trust in media is decreasing. More and more people are avoiding news because, they say, it “has a negative effect on their mood.”
This is why allowing yourself some light-hearted content that evokes positive emotional responses such as curiosity and amazement, or surprise, is very important. But despite good news and positive content being beneficial to our mental health, like most people are aware of, our behavior tells a different story.
The researchers also found that, on average, negative news provoked much stronger physiological reactions and garnered more attention than positive or neutral news. And even though individual people’s reactions varied a bit, a minority of people respond more to positive news.

On the other hand, when browsing for any kind of information online, whether positive or not, it’s important to be aware of whether it’s real truth and real facts. But since there’s no foolproof method to separate truth from misinformation online, internet users must have knowledge and understanding that everything we read and watch online must be taken with a grain of salt.

In our previous interview with Daniel Markuson, the cybersecurity expert at NordVPN, we found out that a general rule of thumb is to check the source’s credibility: “This particularly applies to social media platforms because they are optimized to increase engagement and lack appropriate gatekeeping features that filter out misinformation.”

Dog Loves Purple
When asked about the reasons why fake news has become so widespread, the cybersecurity expert said that it’s “due to factors that concern both the content of the messages and the technological foundation of platforms on which the news is proliferated.”
“Fake news is usually related to current affairs and makes remarkable, emotion-inducing claims. This, combined with the fact that social media platforms collect data on what kind of posts users spend the most time on and feed them content with similar characteristics, provides the perfect conditions for the spread of misinformation,” Daniel concluded.

After police and his mother were called, he WAS allowed to check out books. It's appropriate to name it for him because he overcame discrimination to pursue his academic interests, and it's indicative of his drive and determination. There's also the McNair Memorial Park in his hometown of Lake City, plus the McNair Aerospace Center at the University of South Carolina.

This Is The Shadow Of A Tree During An Eclipse
Basically each small hole of light gets you one. In this case I assume bits of light making it between the leaves. At the last eclipse a few years back someone showed me something sort of similar by holding a colander over a piece of paper. Every hole where the light shone through made a tiny 'eclipse' like that.

A Bald Eagle's Nest. Ranger Included For Scale
We have a lot of eagles around here. There is a place a few miles from here that has one big tree in an otherwise empty (no trees) farm field. There has been a big eagle's nest in it for years. last summer as I was driving past there was an adult eagle at the nest and I briefly saw a couple of heads pop up. You can't see it too great from the road since it is high up but it's kind of fun to see eagles in it every year.

I have been in that room. It was empty then of course. Shout out to any hunk of rope that lasts over 3,000 years. It was dry / musty / still in there so I guess that helped. And they probably treated the rope with something. Oil or wax or whatever. But that's still really impressive for what looks like a piece of hemp rope.

More than two decades ago, a British photographer Tom Stoddart captured Sarajevo resident Meliha Varesanovic walking proudly in high heels and pearls as soldiers traded fire nearby. Stoddart wanted to photo document the life of women in the besieged Sarajevo.The image struck a chord with viewers around the world, becoming a symbol of dignity amidst the tragedies of the Bosnian war.
Meliha Varesanovic survived the war and still lives in Bosnia.
