@CHGO_Bulls @Will_Gottlieb To get 11.5 pts/10 attempts, make .575 2-pt or .383 3-pt attempts. Eight Bulls players shoot 2-point attemps that well. Besides Yabusele and Collins, only Jaden Ivey is close to shooting 3-pointers that well, and all of them might not return next season.

"The higher your Cholesterol, the longer you live." ~Dr Ben Bikman, PhD "Don't fear Cholesterol...the older we get, the more Cholesterol protects us from all diseases." Top 15 benefits of cholesterol: Protects against chemicals, toxins & heavy metals. Prevents dementia & cognitive decline. Protects against all cause mortality. Production of all steroid hormones. Bone density & Osteoporosis prevention. Protective against stroke & heart disease. Important for lungs & airways. Building block of all cells & mitochondria. Absorption of Vitamins A, D, E & K. Critical for digestion & bile acids. Immune system protection against infections. Lowers risk of cancer & death. Lowers risk of depression & suicide. Lowers stress, cortisol & anxiety. A low carbohydrate diet prioritizing nutrient dense animal foods, eliminating harmful seed oils & excess sugar, provides the best healthy cholesterol profile. This approach keeps Triglycerides low & HDL high, which is one of the best Biomarkers for Cardiac health. TG/HDL ratio optimally should be less than 1.5 for low to no risk.

ESPN ranked the 10 worst NBA transactions since last summer 1. Bucks waive and stretch Damian Lillard to sign Myles Turner 2. Pelicans trade their unprotected 2026 first-round pick to move up from 23 to 13 3. Clippers replace Norman Powell with Bradley Beal and Chris Paul 4. Pelicans sign Kevon Looney and trade for Jordan Poole 5. Raptors extend Jakob Poeltl 6. Kings trade for Dario Saric to add Dennis Schroder 7. Rockets sign Dorian Finney-Smith 8.

@Fullcourtpass What you're saying is the Bulls' AKME is on your ESPN list of the "10 worst NBA transactions" since the 2025 offseason, but on the winning side of transaction #10 by getting Isaac Okoro for Lonzo Ball. That's the nicest thing anyone's said lately ... no offense intended to Lonzo.

In 1835, port of New Orleans, Irish families step off the gangway into swampland heat, carrying everything they own. Among them, a small girl named Margaret Gaffney clutches her father's hand. She is five years old. She does not yet know that within the year, both her parents will be dead. Yellow fever moves through the immigrant quarters like wildfire through dry grass. Margaret's mother dies first. Her father follows days later. At six years old, she becomes a ward of Welsh neighbors who need extra hands more than they need another mouth to feed. There is no school. No tenderness. Just work. By nine, she is scrubbing laundry. By eleven, she is entirely on her own. At twenty-one, she marries Charles Haughery. They have a daughter. For the first time since childhood, Margaret feels safe. Then yellow fever comes again. Her husband dies. Her baby dies. She is twenty-two, widowed, childless, illiterate, and alone in a city that considers Irish Catholics less than human. Most people would have broken. Margaret borrowed forty dollars, bought two cows, and started selling milk. She walked the French Quarter before sunrise, knocking on doors, undercutting prices, outworking everyone. People mocked her. A poor Irish widow with a milk cart was not supposed to become anything. Within a year, she paid back the loan. Within five, she owned the largest dairy in the city. Then she met the nuns at the orphanage. They were trying to feed children no one else wanted. Margaret saw herself in every face. She gave them all her milk, every day, and refused payment. She told them she remembered what hunger felt like. She remembered being six and abandoned. In 1858, she sold the dairy and bought a bakery she had no idea how to run. She could not read recipes. She learned by feel, by repetition, by refusing to fail. Within a year, her bread was everywhere. She standardized loaves, mechanized production, and fed a city that once looked through her like she was invisible. When yellow fever returned, she nursed the dying. During the Civil War, she fed Union soldiers and Confederate families without asking which side they supported. She became one of the wealthiest women in America and gave away over six hundred thousand dollars. She never learned to write her name. She signed every document with an X. When Margaret Haughery died in 1882, New Orleans erected the first statue ever dedicated to a woman in the city. At the base, they carved an X. The mark of someone who could not write, but who rewrote what mercy looked like. Margaret lived so simply that many people did not realize she was wealthy. She wore plain dresses, lived in modest rooms, and walked to work every day. Visitors to her bakery often mistook her for a cleaning woman. She preferred it that way. She believed attention should go to the work, not the person doing it. The statue erected in her honor still stands in Margaret Place in New Orleans. It depicts her sitting with a child on her lap and another at her side. The inscription reads simply, "Margaret." For decades, locals called her "the Bread Woman of New Orleans." Children she helped grew up, had children of their own, and told them about the woman who made sure no one went hungry. Margaret's bakery became so successful that during the Civil War, Union officers tried to seize it for military use. She reportedly walked into the commanding officer's tent and told him that if he took her bakery, the orphans would starve. He let her keep it. Another detail: she was known to test her bread by touch alone, never needing to read temperatures or measurements. Workers said she could tell if dough was ready just by pressing it with her thumb. 📷 : Portrait of Margaret Haughery, 1842, by Jacques Amans. © Daughters of Time #archaeohistories

John Taylor Gatto was named New York State Teacher of the Year. Upon receiving the award, he quit and spent the rest of his life writing devastating critiques of the educational system he had mastered. Gatto argued that regardless of the official curriculum, schools actually teach seven hidden lessons. The first is confusion. Students learn disconnected facts across dozens of subjects with no integration or meaning. The second is class position. Students learn their place in the social hierarchy. The third is indifference. Students learn that nothing is worth finishing because the bell always rings. The fourth is emotional dependency. Students learn to surrender their will to a chain of command. The fifth is intellectual dependency. Students learn to wait for experts to tell them what to think. The sixth is provisional self-esteem. Students learn that their worth depends on expert evaluation. The seventh is that they are always being watched and have no privacy. These lessons, Gatto argued, are the actual function of schooling. The explicit curriculum of reading, writing, and arithmetic is almost incidental. The real purpose is to produce passive, dependent, compliant citizens who wait for authorities to tell them what to do and think. Trad schooling amounts to thirteen years of training in being passive and dependent. I have seen this play out with hundreds of students. When I created Montessori middle schools in the San Francisco Bay Area, about half the students came up through Montessori elementary and about half came from public schools. When we opened, the Montessori kids immediately began doing their work, taking initiative, choosing what to tackle first. The public school students were lost. They would stare at their desks until we walked over and helped them plan their morning. It took at least a semester, sometimes a full year, before they could function in an environment that asked them to direct their own learning. These were not less intelligent children. They had simply been trained differently. For years, someone else had made all the decisions about what they would do, when they would do it, and how they would do it. When that structure was removed, they did not know how to operate. Agency is natural to children unless we train it out of them. When I coach parents on evaluating their children's education, I tell them to ignore grades entirely. The question is whether their children are taking initiative, being responsible, and becoming empowered moral beings. If a child is getting straight A's but has no initiative and no sense of personal responsibility, that child is being damaged by their education regardless of how it looks on paper.

🚨 Victor Davis Hanson: THE SIGNALS ARE ALL POINTING THE SAME DIRECTION No U.S. analyst knows better how to cut through the fog of war than Stanford University Prof. @VDHanson. In the clip below, Hanson, who’s studied how wars end for 50 years, says the tide has turned in America’s favor against Iran. Forget the rancid propaganda flowing from all quarters related to the Iran conflict and how it is going - Hanson says look at how everyone else is behaving. Hanson’s Key Points: • Europeans: They never touch a conflict until they smell victory. Early on? Crickets. Now they’re quietly moving assets and offering support. Pure calculation — they’ve read the battlefield and decided which side wins. • Gulf petro-states: Saudis, Emiratis, Qataris survive by reading the room perfectly. They’re expelling Iranian attachés, silently intercepting Iranian missiles over their capitals, and the UAE just reaffirmed its $1.4 trillion investment commitment to the U.S. mid-war. These are not gestures — they’re bets. And they’re all-in on America. • Al Jazeera: The Qatari state network that usually bashes U.S. actions (and hosts Hamas offices) is now calling America’s bombing campaign “brilliant” and “underestimated.” When the outlet that hosts both the biggest U.S. air base and Hamas praises U.S. effectiveness, the message is unmistakable: they think we’re winning. • Military reality: A-10 Warthogs and Apache gunships are now flying strike missions inside Iranian airspace at will. These slow, low-flying platforms only appear when enemy air defenses are effectively gone. Confirms what’s really happening on the ground. Iran’s only play left is rope-a-dope: drag it out, hope U.S. public opinion flips, pray midterms pressure Trump to quit. VDH’s verdict: If Trump sees it through — and he will — the regime falls. Not in years. Pretty soon. Bottom line: Watch what people do, not what they say. Every player with skin in the game is betting on America. The signals don’t lie. #Iran #Europe #Warthogs #Trump @AlJazeera

Mayor Brandon Johnson and the ultra-left city council, controlled by the teachers' union, have produced a city with a more than $1 billion budget gap. Roughly two-fifths of Chicago's entire budget now goes toward debt service and pension costs before a single pothole gets fixed or a single cop gets paid. Their solution? A 20% tourist tax on hotels. A $21-per-employee corporate head tax. An $830 million borrowing plan — with a provision allowing someone else to pay the accrued debt after 20 years. City-run grocery stores. And stopping purchases of U.S. Treasury bonds for political reasons. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳. The Washington Post editorial board — not exactly a conservative outlet — warned that it takes a long time to kill a city, but the bigger the city, the longer it takes. Chicago is proving them right in real time. And now look at the pattern nationally. New York City under Mamdani is spending $115.9 billion for 8.48 million people — almost as much as Florida's entire $117.4 billion budget for 23.3 million people. New York is spending $81,000 per homeless person in a city where the average take-home pay is $40,600. Three bond rating agencies have issued negative outlooks in two weeks. Mamdani calls them premature. Virginia just flipped to Democratic control and immediately rushed to impose new taxes and spending. Kathy Hochul spent years telling wealthy New Yorkers to leave — and now begs them to come back because her tax base is collapsing.

@MrTupids @forallcurious Not the same people. Big differences: Disaster, soon, man-made, Vs. Disaster, in 10,000 years, due to planetary dynamics (Milankovitch cycles). BTW, the glaciers don't reach the tropical latitudes, so in 10,000 years, we'll airlift the skyscrapers from Toronto to Venezuela.

@forallcurious Is this the same research that said the next ice age was coming in the 70s? Or the same research that said a hole in the ozone was happening? Or the globe was warming? Or the climate was changing? Anyone notice have they have NEVER been right? Literally ever.

@EricLDaugh @realDonaldTrump could write the TSA payments agreement on a napkin and sign it so Musk could cut him a check. I'd love to see a Federal traffic court Judge or a US tin- horned Senator try to take food out of the TSA families' mouths.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk stands to SAVE TSA agents from hardship after offering to pay their salaries during the Schumer Shutdown "TSA are reporting not being able to pay for basics like gas, rent and food! Nearly 400 nationwide have QUIT." Elon is a patriot! 🇺🇸

@KCaroleK @arianajasmine__ Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

@arianajasmine__ Donald Trump has an MBA from Wharton.

Barack Obama went to Columbia and Harvard University. Michelle Obama went to Princeton and Harvard University. Donald Trump went to Epstein's Island.

@Dogfrogzel @Logically_JC @MarkNaughton9 Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton. I suppose it depends on the school, but a BS in Economics might be more demanding than an MBA.

@Logically_JC @MarkNaughton9 Trump has a BS degree from Univ. of Pennsylvania, Wharton School of Econ. He'd like people to believe he has a Wharton MBA, as with most things he claims that just isn't true. As for Hegseth, his attempts to cripple the military have only strengthened resolve. Princeton, pfft.

So, basically they want them to go to Hillsdale or Liberty University.

@DanOHerrin @OAlexanderDK @CRUDEOIL231 Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

@OAlexanderDK @CRUDEOIL231 Trump is said to have an IQ of 140 and has an MBA from Wharton…while you have a PhD in TDS.

I don’t have much faith in two people with a combined IQ below 100 making a deal with Iran that is acceptable to the U.S., Israel and Iran.

@LeeHJohnston @BulwarkOnline Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

@BulwarkOnline Trump transferred into Wharton after two years at Fordham. Fred Trump gave Penn a big check. Wharton undergrad is not as hard to get into as the Wharton MBA.

Trump: “I know a lot of stupid people that went to a good college…I went to the hardest college of all to get into, the Wharton School of Finance, that means I'm real smart.”

@LorneRichardso4 Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

Trump says that Gov Gavin Newsom has a learning disability but if Donnie would release his transcript from UPenn, you would find it is Trump that has the learning disability,so help me DOG. Did Trump get an MBA from Wharton Business School?

@Alejand96450170 @ZaidJilani Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

@ZaidJilani Trump got a MBA from #1 Biz School, Wharton, Turned 1 MIllion dad gave him to 10 Billion, Builds Golf Courses, Wrote #1 Bestseller on Negotians, Had the #1 rated TV for Ten years, became president 2ce fighitng the FBI And CIA-and HE's DUMB??? WHat have you accomplished? Dumbshit

Trump is dumber and meaner George W Bush

@MorganwwMurphy Trump has a BS in Economics, not an MBA, from Wharton.

Asking most politicians about economics is like quizzing squirrels on the finer works Beethoven. Trump—with a Wharton MBA and actual business experience—is rebuilding the American economy. A debtor nation cannot lead the world. Trump is putting our financial house in order.

Scientists just made 50-year-old skin cells behave like they’re 20 again. Researchers at the Babraham Institute in Cambridge have developed a groundbreaking method to reverse the biological aging of human skin cells by approximately 30 years, all while keeping them as fully functional adult skin cells. The team used a carefully controlled, short-term version of the Nobel Prize-winning Yamanaka reprogramming technique. By exposing adult skin fibroblasts to a specific set of reprogramming factors (the Yamanaka factors) for just 13 days—and then stopping the process early—they successfully “reset” many molecular markers of aging without pushing the cells all the way back to a stem cell state. After this brief treatment, the rejuvenated cells displayed a dramatically younger profile: their epigenetic clock (a measure of chemical tags on DNA that tracks biological age) and their gene expression patterns (the transcriptome) closely resembled those of cells from much younger individuals. Even more impressively, the cells behaved younger too. The treated fibroblasts produced significantly higher levels of collagen—the protein essential for skin firmness, elasticity, and wound healing—and they migrated faster to close an artificial “wound” in laboratory dishes compared to untreated older cells. The researchers also observed reversal of age-related changes in genes associated with diseases such as Alzheimer’s and cataracts, suggesting the technique could have broader therapeutic implications. While this work is still in its early stages and the precise mechanisms remain under investigation, the findings open exciting possibilities: one day, scientists may be able to selectively rejuvenate aging cells in the body to enhance tissue repair, improve healing, and potentially slow or mitigate some effects of age-related diseases—without the risks associated with fully reprogramming cells into stem cells.
