Kai Trump shows Elon Musk awkwardly tutoring Trump in rocket scienceCHICAGO, Nov. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research (FSR) is proud to announce the recipients of the 2024 FSR Cardiac Sarcoidosis Grant, providing $200,000 in funding to advance groundbreaking research aimed at improving the diagnosis, management, and treatment of cardiac sarcoidosis and doubling FSR's investment from 2023. FSR has awarded two grants, each in the amount of $100,000, to Dr. Eliot Peyster, MD, MSc, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Ravi Karra, MD, MHS, Associate Professor of Medicine and Pathology at Duke University. These grants support innovative projects designed to improve diagnostic accuracy and clinical care for cardiac sarcoidosis patients. Dr. Peyster's research project, Establishing a True Gold Standard for Cardiac Sarcoidosis Diagnosis with Quantitative Multi-marker Immunofluorescence , applies advanced spatial biology techniques to create a new diagnostic gold standard for cardiac sarcoidosis, leveraging quantitative multi-marker immunofluorescence. His expertise spans cardiovascular diseases, heart failure, and translational research, with a focus on adapting cutting-edge technologies to improve patient care. "This generous award from the FSR will enable us to test a novel, modern, and very promising new approach to diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis," says Dr. Peyster. "The work we will perform as part of this award has the potential to be practice-changing and will hopefully lead to earlier disease detection and better outcomes for patients." Dr. Karra's research project, Repurposing 99mTc-Tilmanocept Imaging for Cardiac Sarcoidosis , focuses on adapting macrophage-specific imaging agents to improve cardiac sarcoidosis diagnosis and monitoring. His translational program at Duke University combines developmental biology and epidemiology to advance early-phase clinical trials and improve care for heart failure patients. "With generous support from the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research, we are excited to test whether an imaging agent specific to macrophages can be used to better diagnose and follow cardiac sarcoidosis," says Dr. Karra. "This work is part of a bench-to-bedside approach from my lab and has the potential to address a significant, unmet need in the field of sarcoidosis." "We are thrilled to support these extraordinary projects through FSR's Cardiac Sarcoidosis Grant," says Mary McGowan, FSR's CEO. "The insights gained from this research have the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis, outcome evaluation, and treatment strategies not only for individuals with cardiac sarcoidosis but also for a wide range of other inflammatory diseases." FSR is dedicated to accelerating sarcoidosis research through its fellowships, pilot and cardiac grants, and other disease-specific initiatives. To date, FSR has provided more than $7 million in funding to support sarcoidosis research worldwide.

NEW LAWYERS There are always two success stories in every bar exam triumph— the second is that of parents. (See story on the 2024 results on Page A4) —RICHARD A. REYES Kyle Christian Tutor of the University of the Philippines (UP) topped the 2024 bar exam, with three other graduates from the state university also making it to the Top 10. Tutor, who finished political science also at UP before taking up law, led the 3,962 passers with a score of 85.77 percent. READ: LIVE UPDATES: Bar exam results 2024 He was followed by Maria Cristina Aniceto of the Ateneo de Manila University (85.54); Gerald Roxas of Angeles University Foundation (84.3); and John Philippe Chua and Jet Nicolas, both of UP (84.28 and 84.27, respectively). Completing the Top 10 are Maria Lovelyn Joyce Quebrar of UP; Kyle Isaguirre of Ateneo; Joji Macadine of the University of Mindanao; Greogorio Torres of the Western Mindanao State University; and Raya Villacorta of San Beda University. The next highest scorers who would complete the Top 20 are Paolo Antonio Gerpacio of Ateneo; Andrea Ambray of the University of Santo Tomas (UST); Marielle Macarilay of Ateneo; John Daniel Hamoy of the University of San Carlos; Therese Garcia of Ateneo; Recel Elumba of Jose Rizal Memorial State University; Rieland Cuevas of UP; Betlee-Kyle Barraquias of Ateneo; Steve Barredo of the University of St. La Salle; and Pierre Reque of UST and Kenneth Lijauco of UP (who both placed 20th). The last time a UP law graduate topped the bar exams was in 2022, when Czar Matthew Gerard Torres Dayday scored 88.8 percent. Tutor and sixth placer Quebrar are both scholars of the Foundation for Liberty and Prosperity (FLP), which was established in 2011 with retired Chief Justice Artemio Panganiban as founding chair. The foundation has sent deserving students to law school since 2017, with each batch producing high-ranking bar passers. Applicants to the FLP scholarship go through a rigorous selection process headed by Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo. Tutor, a cum laude graduate who has worked in the Office of the Solicitor General as a legal assistant, said he would like to become an “abogado para sa bayan (lawyer for the people).” Quebrar, who also graduated cum laude, is currently an associate at the Quisumbing Torres Law Office. Kyle Christian Tutor —SUPREME COURT OF THE PHILIPPINES PHOTO A working student supporting her family, she said she was “proud to have achieved everything through hard work and prayers.” In a message, Panganiban, who is also an Inquirer columnist, said he was “extremely happy” that the new lawyers had “kept the tradition of excellence starting with [Sean James] Borja.” He was referring to the 2018 bar topnotcher, who was among FLP’s first batch of scholars. Only 37.84 percent of the examinees—or 3,962 out of more than 10,000 takers—passed the bar this year, the Supreme Court said as it announced the results on Friday. In 2020, the tribunal lowered the passing grade from 75 to 74 percent. Associate Justice Mario Lopez, this year’s bar chair, said the high court had decided to lower the passing grade because it wanted more lawyers especially in the provinces. “Not in Metro Manila because I believe in Metro Manila we have enough. But in the provinces we may not have enough lawyers,” he said at a press conference. Subscribe to our daily newsletter By providing an email address.

Election results on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean have set the background for the final stretch of campaigning for Irish parties ahead of polling day on Friday. Donald Trump’s presidential election victory in the US has brought heightened concern that his administration’s proposals around corporation tax and tariffs would significantly impact Ireland’s economic model. Mr Harris, leader of Fine Gael, has argued Ireland and other EU countries need to prepare for the possibility of trade shocks as he criticised the scale of Sinn Fein’s spending pledges as well as their saving plans. He said: “I think that is irresponsible, I think it is dangerous and I think it is reckless.” He accused Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald of not being able to say what her party was prepared to do in the event of an economic crash, adding that Fine Gael would borrow and stop putting money towards a rainy-day fund. Asked if the party was engaging in “project fear” to dissuade voters against Sinn Fein, Mr Harris said: “I call it ‘project truth’. It’s telling people what’s being discussed right across European capitals.” Ms McDonald told an RTE interview on Wednesday morning that a Sinn Fein government would also be prepared to start borrowing in the event of an economic downturn. Both Mr Harris and Fianna Fail leader Micheal Martin, who were partners in the last coalition government in Ireland, have made clear they will not countenance Sinn Fein as a potential partner in the next administration in Dublin. One day after the only three-way debate featuring the leaders of the main parties, Mr Martin accused Sinn Fein of being “dishonest” about how they will fund their manifesto plans. Speaking in Dublin on Wednesday, he said he is anxious to get clarity on the issue. “I think Sinn Fein have been very dishonest, frankly, in terms of the funds, because if you go through their figures, and this is a matter of fact, not opinion, they’re predicting a surplus of a billion in 2026, a billion in 2027. “Even in 2025, they’re talking about a mini budget, which would mean reducing the surplus that we’re anticipating in 2025. “There’s a legislative obligation now on any new government to put 0.8% of GDP to one side, and into the funds. There’s no way you can do that with a surplus of a billion in 2026 or 2027, and we would argue they would not have enough funds next year either to put into the funds.” He added: “It means they have no room to manoeuvre if things go wrong, if there’s headwinds come externally, or there are shocks internationally, Sinn Fein is not allowing any headroom at all in terms of room to respond or to move it.” Ms McDonald accused the other two parties of conspiring to keep Sinn Fein out of government and prevent change in Ireland. She said the two men were now “indistinguishable” from each other as she claimed they were suffering “acute amnesia” in regard to their records in government. On a visit to Naas fire station in Co Kildare, she said: “To listen to them, you’d imagine they had just arrived on the scene and that they were going to come up with all of these solutions. “They have had ample chances, ample opportunity, to make things better, and they have failed, and in between the two of them I make the case that now we ask for our chance, with our plans, with our team, to demonstrate how change can happen, how your community, your family, yourself, can be supported when the government is actually on your side.” Mr Martin’s and Mr Harris’ coalition partner Roderic O’Gorman, the leader of the Greens, issued a warning to the public over a future government without his party. On Wednesday, he said it is looking likely that Fianna Fail and Fine Gael will be returned to government – but cautioned they may not want the Greens to continue “fighting hard” on policies. He told reporters: “My sense is certainly the mood music from Fianna Fail and Fine Gael is that they’d like an easier life in the next government – and my concern is they use these small populist parties and right-wing independents.” Mr O’Gorman argued that the Greens could continue to provide stability to government at a time when economic shocks may be around the corner. As the Green leader suggested that relying on independents would be unstable, Mr Martin has also argued that “too much fragmentation would lead to incoherence in government”. Reflecting on Tuesday night’s debate, the Fianna Fail leader said the race remained “too close to call” while Mr Harris said it is “all to play for”. The leaders of Ireland’s three main political parties clashed on housing, healthcare and financial management in the last televised debate before Friday’s General Election. The tetchy debate, which was marked by several interruptions, saw the parties set out their stalls in a broadcast that commentators said did little to move the dial before polling day. The latest opinion poll on Wednesday put the parties in a tight grouping, with Fianna Fail slightly ahead of Sinn Fein and Fine Gael in joint second. After the 2020 general election delivered an inconclusive result, Fine Gael and Fianna Fail, two parties forged from opposing sides of Ireland’s Civil War of the 1920s, agreed to set aside almost a century of animosity and share power – with the Greens as a junior partner. From 2016 to 2020, Fianna Fail had supported Fine Gael in power through a confidence-and-supply arrangement from the Opposition benches in the Dail parliament. Sinn Fein won the popular vote in 2020 but a failure to run enough candidates meant it did not secure sufficient seats in the Dail to give it a realistic chance of forming a government.

Chloe Kitts, who averages a team-leading 14 points, finished the game with 2 points on 1 of 7 shooting. UCLA: The Bruins led 43-22 at halftime. Eight different players scored and contributed to 11-0 and 7-0 runs in the first and second quarters as they shot 52% from the field.

Brazil's Supreme Court on Wednesday started examining four cases that turn on how far social media should be regulated, and what responsibilities platforms have in cracking down on illegal content. The judicial review comes a month after the same court forced Elon Musk's X platform to obey rulings aimed at battling online disinformation. That issue has taken on heat in recent days in Brazil, with federal police accusing far-right ex-president Jair Bolsonaro and allied officials of using social media disinformation as part of a 2022 "coup" plot against Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, then the country's president-elect. The alleged plot involved using online posts to undermine public trust in the electoral system to justify Bolsonaro holding onto the presidency after Lula defeated him at the polls. Bolsonaro says he is innocent. The Supreme Court's deliberations in the cases are not expected to be concluded until sometime next year. One key point it is looking at is whether social media platforms can be fined for illegal content posted by users. Another is whether the platforms should themselves be required to monitor and remove any illegal content without a prior court order to do so. The court's rulings will become precedents that will have to be applied generally to all social media platforms operating in Brazil. Brazil -- many of whose 216 million inhabitants are heavy users of WhatsApp and Facebook -- does not have legislation in that area. More from this section Global social media networks, however, already have to abide by laws in the EU against illegal online content, under the bloc's Digital Services Act (DSA), which could guide them in terms of Brazilian compliance. One of the Brazilian Supreme Court's judges, Alexandre de Moraes, in August ordered Musk's X be blocked across the country for failing to comply with a series of court orders against online disinformation. On October 9, the platform was allowed to resume activities after paying around $5 million in fines and deactivating the accounts of several Bolsonaro supporters accused of spreading disinformation and online hate speech. The court's presiding judge, Luis Roberto Barroso, told AFP that "digital platforms... open paths to disinformation, hate, deliberate lies and conspiracy theories." He added: "In the whole democratic world there are debates about protecting free speech without permitting everyone to fall into a pit of incivility." He pointed to the European Union's DSA as a form of regulation "that seeks a point of ideal equilibrium". Brazil, in his opinion, should carve out its own regulation "with a minimum of government intervention where it comes to freedom of thought, while preventing increased criminality and inciting violence." ffb/rmb/stNone

The conservative think tank has put together a of thousands of potential candidates from which to draw. “Individuals helping to fill out the personnel teams for the Trump transition operation have sought and used information from the Project 2025 database because of the enormity of the task of filling out the more than 4,000 political appointee jobs that will become vacant in 2025,” a source told . Additionally, a person who worked on informed the news outlet, “There’s a lot of positions to fill and we continue to send names over, including ones from the database as they are conservative, qualified and vetted.” “Hard to find 4,000 solid people, so we are happy to help,” the person added. Trump transition co-chair Howard Lutnick told CNBC in September regarding Project 2025, “I won’t take a list from them. I won’t take a topic from them. I won’t touch them. They made themselves nuclear.” However, he noted that he had read the plan. Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris, sought to with all the hundreds of pages of policy proposals found in Project 2025, particularly those . Project 2025 called for better tracking of abortions across the country and requiring chemical abortion drugs to go through a reapproval process by the Food and Drug Administration among other proposals. President-elect Donald Trump took a more federal government hands-off view regarding during the campaign, saying the matter should be left with the states. At multiple points in the months leading up to Election Day, Trump disavowed Project 2025 overall. In early November, he said, “Project 2025. I’ve never read it, and I don’t want to read it, because that way I can be honest with you.” “Some people got together. I assume they’re extremely conservative, and that’s OK. And they came up with a plan,” Trump added, acknowledging that some of the document’s authors had previously worked for him. “PROJECT 2025, I’VE NEVER READ IT, AND I DON’T WANT TO READ IT!” – President — Real America’s Voice (RAV) (@RealAmVoice) Trump, in fact, has already named some of the authors of Project 2025 to his new administration, including , his former and incoming director of the Office of Management and Budget.
