LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- University of Kentucky researchers made a major breakthrough in understanding long COVID: it could lead to Alzheimer’s-like brain changes.

"I was shocked how people will find COVID in their brain," Dr. Yang Jiang said.

Jiang, Bob Sompol, and Chris Norris are the three researchers from University of Kentucky’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging who spent years studying COVID-19 patients.

"I feel like a little detective," Jiang said.

The trio discovered brain functions after Long COVID are strikingly similar to those with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia.

That includes brain fog, confusion, and memory deficits.

The researchers connected with other scientist and got their study published in Alzheimer’s & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association.

"The panel was made up of international experts from six different countries," Jiang explained.

It highlights brain disorders and focuses on understanding brain fog, a symptom so many COVID survivors experience months after testing positive.

"When you get an infection, it's not infecting [you] one way," Sompol said. "It infects your nose, your lung, and then it goes to your bloodstream."

They hope to continue their research.

"I don't think we totally fully understand long-COVID yet," Jiang said.

She encourages everyone to monitor their brain health and get regular check-ups. Jiang believes early detection could help health care providers identify at-risk patients sooner.

This could slow, or even prevent, memory loss and concentration issues.

"COVID is not just affecting your lungs," Jiang said. "So you need to check [the] health of the whole body."

"Media Ride"

Police in Louisville have released bodycam footage showing the dramatic rescue of a woman who was found chained to the floor of a house after neighbors heard her screams for help.

Footage from officer-worn bodycams on Aug. 16 shows two officers circling the two-story house in the 1700 block of Bolling Avenue to find a way inside. The officers, however, quickly learned that all doors and windows on the first floor were completely barricaded, Louisville Metro Police Department said.

Neighbors lent the officers a ladder, which they used to climb to a window on the second floor that had been shattered.

Officers climbed inside, where they discovered a disturbing scene.

The woman who had been crying for help had a chain wrapped around her neck and secured with a padlock. The other end of the chain was bolted to the floor, police said.

Officers found a hatchet in the room and could be seen on video chopping the end of the chain bolted to the floor. After freeing the woman, the officers safely brought her outside the home, where firefighters used bolt cutters to remove the chain from around the woman’s neck.

Police said a suspect was arrested in connection with the case two days after the woman’s rescue.

The suspect, identified as 36-year-old Moises May, was charged with kidnapping, two counts of assault, and terroristic threatening, according to WDRB. He was also charged with intimidating a participant in the legal process, wanton endangerment and harassment.

The victim, Joanna Wilson, spoke to the station about the ordeal, alleging that May, her estranged boyfriend and father of her child, had made her strip her clothes off, used a machete to cut her hair and threatened to kill her.

"He made me strip naked, he put the chain around my neck. He called his friend and said, 'I've got to take this equipment back to Lowe's. When I come back, I'm going to kill you,'" Wilson told the outlet. "I only had a few minutes to get out."

Wilson said she was chained up in the house for about five hours before police arrived. She said she used to share the home with May.

She told the station that her child is staying with family.

WDRB NEWS: LIL’ BANNER SPEAKS AFTER HIS UNVEILING [X]

[ralfmaximus]

I'm assuming I'm not the first person to message about the McDonald's article, but fwiw it appears the news station, WDRB, is a Louisville local news station. It's in that context that they're highlighting Louisville first, which is sensible when you're trying to make an immediate connection to the place you're running news for. Highlighting a small number of something particularly egregious, i.e. 2 10 year olds doing unpaid labor, is also a better way to catch interest generally than a bigger number of something less egregious, like 300+ children working more/later than they're supposed to.

It's good to question headlines, but I think what they did was reasonable in this case.

You're absolutely right! WDRB wrote the headline to be relevant to its local readers, which is good journalistic practice. Published material that nobody notices or reads is useless.

But I'm right too: there is systematic child labor abuse, it is being underreported, and the headline does not accurately reflect the contents of the article. That's misleading.

Revival at the Kitchen Sink

Asbury University to end nonstop 'revival' service, lists new guidelines and final schedule

"We recognize life for the students had to return to normal, they have to go to school, they have midterms next week," "They know this is a gift, they have received it as a gift, so we are going to challenge them with now you take this to your job, your family, your church."

"I feel as though maybe we were the candle and now we are just passing that flame on to other churches and other schools,"

Abby Laub, communications director of Asbury University, said the campus will return to normalcy.

The university will also no longer allow live streaming of the service.(WDRB news report)

All God given outpourings are purposed to open us up to the abundant life in Christ provided by our union with the Holy Spirit.

It’s an anytime, anywhere for everyone gift!

“The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.” -Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭39‬ ‭

Your kitchen sink can become your altar and sanctuary when you are living out the joys and realities of a life full of the Holy Spirit.

Brother Lawrence (mid 1600s): “I have quitted all forms of devotion and set prayers but those to which my state obliges me. And I make it my business only to persevere in His holy presence, wherein I keep myself by a simple attention, and a general fond regard to GOD, which I may call an actual presence of GOD; or, to speak better, an habitual, silent, and secret conversation of the soul with GOD, which often causes in me joys and raptures inwardly, and sometimes also outwardly, so great that I am forced to use means to moderate them, and prevent their appearance to others.”

If crusty old Catholic saints aren’t your vibe how about a Holy Ghost encounter while you’re waiting for a sandwich?

‭‭Acts‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬-‭10‬ ‭“About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.”

Dear Saints your Savior has never left you alone, He dwells within you by His Spirit and His living and abiding Word. Times of spiritual refreshment come through the presence of the Lord! (Acts 3:19-20)

The Spirit is uncontainable and unpredictable like the wind -Jesus (John 3:8).

This is the secret to living in the Spirit vs a religious paradigm of searching for where the Spirit may or may not be in some form, measure or meeting. You can not and need not schedule union with God when you live, move and have your being in Him (Acts 17:28).

All our chore times, reading with our children, car rides, laundry folding, gardening, family feasting, worship services, prayer times, small meetings, outreaches and good works of service are overflow opportunities for the living water within you (John 7:38).

May all the meetings we have witnessed and the ones that are sparked from them encourage us all to pursue lives of expectation and enjoyment through the miracle of the mundane, a humble and holy life offered to God in love and service.

Free treatment for veterans with PTSD now available after $1.5 million in Kentucky funding

Our TBI treatment program made the news last night at 1000, airing multiple times this morning on the same network, WDRB. Please share in your networks. We're making progress, just not fast enough.

Click Image to view Video LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- An estimated 12,000 Kentucky veterans suffer from traumatic brain injuries and PTSD, but $1.5 million in state money is now available to help them using a specific kind of treatment not offered through the VA. And the state investment is all thanks to a local veteran's family, who fought for years to get it approved. That veteran, Col. Ronald Ray, was a highly decorated United States Marine and a lawyer and went on to serve on two presidential commissions. But the wounds he suffered in war would go on to severely impact his life some decades later. Ray's widow, Eunice, tried everything she could to help her husband at the advice of doctors, including Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy, which gives patients pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. "For the veterans, they do 40 treatments for an hour," said Dr. Jack Arnold, who practices at the Clark Regional Medical Center in Winchester. "... All the excess oxygen creates increased profusion to brain cells, helping the neurocognitive function and basically that higher level neurological communication, so to speak."   For veterans suffering from traumatic brain injuries and PTSD, it essentially heals damaged tissue in the brain. "For TBIs, for those who have had cognitive impairment, it seems to really help with them," Arnold said. "It gives them a higher level of cognitive function, which helps them to have a more fulfilling life. ... People are able to hold down jobs. People are able to function better within societal norms things like that." Eric Koledia, Ronald Ray's brother-in-law, said they witnessed first hand what at TBI does when it's untreated. But they were refused HBOT treatment for Ray in Louisville. Instead, they had to travel to Panama and Florida. "I became frustrated because I thought 'Why would a person who is a veteran, who's given so much, not be able to walk in and get the treatments?'" Eunice Ray said. That set off a mission for Eunice Ray and Koleda. Together, they fought for the state legislature to approve HBOT for Veterans in Kentucky. Their efforts worked and, not only that, during the last session, lawmakers dedicated $1.5 million to pay for it. All of the treatment would be at no cost to veterans who qualify thanks to the approved state money. Now, they're trying to get the word out. "We're hoping to treat, over the next two years, 100-150 veterans," Koleda said.

Col. Ronald Ray and Eunice Ray   The doctors and technicians at Clark Regional Medical Center's Wound Care Center have seen the success of HBOT therapy on veterans first hand. "It is something that's got significant, improved evidence behind it that is really working out for veterans and helping with their cognitive issues," Arnold said. The testimonials from veterans, in particular, are powerful. "Like 10 treatments into the actual process of HBOT, everything started coming back online ..." Capt. Matt Smothermon, who served in Afghanistan said in an HBOT testimonial. 'I wasn't able to sleep before. ... Now, I could finally sleep. Where I constantly stressed out, I no longer was." And former Navy Seal Brandon Cruz. "The symptoms of TBI and PTSD, they marry each other sensitivity to light mood swings,' former Navy Seal Brandon Cruz said in another video. "And I wish that everybody that had a chance to do the treatment would do the treatment, because it saved me. ... The pain goes away. Does it completely heal everything? No. But, by and large, it restores a higher level of normalcy to these veterans they haven't seen in years." The free HBOT therapy is now available to qualifying Kentucky veterans at hospitals in Louisville, Winchester and even in southern Indiana. Arnold said the treatments can help to address the veteran suicide rate, which the latest data shows is 17 per day in the U.S. "It's proven to help with that," Arnold said. "So my strong opinion is, yeah, it needs to be part of that treatment regiment to prevent that." In her late husband's memory, Eunice Ray is urging veterans to take action and reach out for help. "If I could help one veteran who's already given so much ... not have to go through this, oh my goodness, it would be such a tribute to Ron," she said. "It could be life-changing to them, life-lengthening and life-enriching." If you are a veteran and want to learn more about the treatment, click here. Read the full article

Susan Wild (D-PA) applauded the publication of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) address during the partial government shutdown in 2019, according to comments reviewed by Breitbart News that she made under a Facebook post revealing his residence.The worrying remarks from Wild, who is in a tight race for reelection against Republican Ryan Mackenzie in Pennsylvania’s Seventh Congressional District, came in response to a January 16, 2019, post from a Facebook account belonging to a man named Paul Lichty.screenshotIn the post, which Breitbart News has archived but will not link to for McConnell’s safety and security, Lichty published his address.“Someone should take out a billboard,” Wild wrote from her personal Facebook account under the post.“Indeed!” responded Lichty.“In the suburbs of DC where many of those workers live,” Wild wrote back, seemingly musing about where such a billboard featuring his address should be placed. “They’re close enough to come ‘visit’ him.”Lichty said he hoped “a few (thousand/s) would show-up for a chat!”At the time, McConnell was under immense pressure as he refused to advance legislation to reopen the government unless then-President Donald Trump supported it. Trump had been clear that he would not sign legislation to reopen the government unless it included border funding.On January 15, 2016, a day before the address doxxing and Wild’s comment, McConnell had blocked two pieces of legislation to reopen the government that Sens. Ben Cardin (D-MD) and Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) sought consent on, as the Hill noted.McConnell said the Senate would not “participate in something that doesn’t lead to an outcome.”“The solution to this is a negotiation between the one person in the country who can sign something into law, the president of the United States, and our Democratic colleagues,” he added.President Donald J.
