Danny Drinkwater on Jamie Vardy at Leicester:
"Vards was always on another level before games. He'd crack open a Red Bull, chug it down then go absolutely mental — he starts sprinting in circles around the dressing room, screaming, 'I'm a cheetah! Let's go, boys, cheetah speed!' He's dodging kit bags, smashes into a bench, we're all just peeing ourselves laughing.
Ranieri is standing there, trying to stay calm like he always does, and he just looks at him and says, 'Jamie, please, be a cheetah on the pitch, not in my dressing room!' Vards didn't even hear him, he just kept going, shouting about being a cheetah until we had to go out for warm-ups."

A parasite that has been eating people for 3,500 years is about to be wiped off the planet. It infected 3.5 million people in 1986. Last year, it infected 10. And I have not seen it make a single front page.
It is called Guinea worm. You drink contaminated water from a pond in a poor village. A year later, a worm up to three feet long starts coming out of your leg through a burning blister. There is no pill that stops it and no surgery that works. You wrap the worm around a stick and pull it out slowly, over days or weeks, inch by inch. If you rush, the worm breaks inside you and causes a fresh infection.
Guinea worm is ancient. Preserved worms have been pulled out of Egyptian mummies from around 1000 BCE. The Ebers Papyrus, an Egyptian medical scroll from 1550 BCE, describes pulling the worm out with a stick. For three and a half thousand years, that was the best humans could do.
Then in 1986, public health workers decided to kill the parasite off. They had no vaccine and no drug. What they had was cheap cloth water filters and a small army of volunteers willing to walk from village to village for decades.
The plan was simple. Give everyone who drinks from a pond a cloth filter to strain out the tiny water fleas that spread the parasite. Then send volunteers walking house to house, year after year, teaching people how to use the filters and keeping anyone with an emerging worm out of the water.
It worked. From 3.5 million cases a year to 10. Four were in Chad, four in Ethiopia, two in South Sudan. The other four countries where the worm used to be common, Angola, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, and Mali, had zero human cases for the second year in a row. The World Health Organization has already certified 200 countries as Guinea worm free. Six are left.
The last hurdle is dogs. Cameroon had 445 infected animals last year and Chad had 147, so a lot of the remaining work is on animals, not humans. Strays get leashed, and crews treat ponds to kill any remaining worms. The campaign keeps watching until the number hits zero.
When Guinea worm hits zero, it becomes the second human disease ever erased from the planet. The first was smallpox. It will also be the first parasite humans have ever wiped out, and the first disease ever ended without a single dose of medicine. Volunteers walked village to village with cloth filters for 40 years. Now a plague from the age of the pharaohs is about to be gone.

Give me the kind of good news from around the world that nobody ever talks about... but should.

Irène Joliot-Curie was a remarkable French scientist and politician who made significant contributions to the field of nuclear physics and radioactivity. She was born on September 12, 1897 in Paris, as the daughter of Pierre and Marie Curie, the famous Nobel laureates in physics and chemistry. She grew up in a stimulating intellectual environment and received a rigorous education from her mother and other eminent scholars.
During World War I, she served as a nurse radiographer and used X-rays to help wounded soldiers. She obtained her doctorate in science in 1925, after studying the alpha rays of polonium, one of the elements discovered by her parents. In 1926, she married Frédéric Joliot, a fellow physicist and assistant of Marie Curie. Together, they formed a formidable scientific partnership and collaborated on various research projects on natural and artificial radioactivity, transmutation of elements, and nuclear physics.
In 1934, they achieved a breakthrough by creating new radioactive elements by bombarding aluminum, boron, and magnesium with alpha particles. They discovered that these elements emitted positrons and neutrons, which indicated that they had higher atomic numbers than their original elements. This phenomenon was called artificial radioactivity, and it opened up new possibilities for exploring the structure of the atom and creating new elements.
For this discovery, Irène and Frédéric Joliot-Curie were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935, making them the second married couple (after Irène's parents) to win the Nobel Prize. They also became the family with the most Nobel laureates to date.
Irène Joliot-Curie was also active in politics and social causes. She was a supporter of the Popular Front, a coalition of leftist parties in France, and became the Undersecretary of State for Scientific Research in 1936, one of the first women to hold a ministerial position in France. She was also involved in the World Peace Council and the Union of French Women. She advocated for the advancement of women in science and society, and for the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
In 1937, she became a professor at the Faculty of Science in Paris, succeeding her mother as the director of the Radium Institute in 1946. She continued her research on radioactivity and nuclear physics, and participated in the creation of the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) in 1945. She also planned and supervised the construction of a large center for nuclear physics at Orsay, which was equipped with a synchro-cyclotron.
Unfortunately, her exposure to radiation took a toll on her health, and she developed acute leukemia. She died on March 17, 1956 in Paris, at the age of 58. She left behind a legacy of scientific excellence and social commitment, as well as two children, Hélène and Pierre, who also became distinguished scientists. Irène Joliot-Curie was an inspiring figure who made lasting contributions to humanity through her work and vision.

Today marks the birth anniversary of Henri Poincaré (1854–1912), a pioneering French mathematician, physicist, and philosopher of science.
Renowned as "The Last Universalist", Poincaré made foundational contributions to celestial mechanics, topology, chaos theory, and the early development of special relativity. His work laid the groundwork for modern mathematical physics and influenced generations of scientists and thinkers.
