“This study is a new way of looking at how climate change affects people around the world,” said Nicole Willcoxon, Gallup’s director of research for the project. “And while there are many factors that affect people’s well-being, this study shows that there is a clear relationship between rising temperatures and a drop in life evaluation.” Gallup’s global study shows just how much of an impact this heat has on our lives, whether we realize it or not....

Die HPV-Impfung gegen Gebärmutterhals- und Peniskrebs kann mehr bewirken, als die meisten denken: Sie senkt sogar das Rückfallrisiko bei erwachsenen Frauen nach einer Krebsoperation. Das zeigen mittlerweile mehrere Studien. Bisher empfiehlt die Eidgenössische Impfkommission EKIF die Impfung speziell für Mädchen und Jungen, idealerweise vor dem ersten Sex. Die Impfung reduziert das Rückfallrisiko um 60 %. Künftig könnte die Impfempfehlung auf Frauen ausgeweitet werden, bei denen bereits schwere HPV-bedingte Zellveränderungen oder sogar Gebärmutterhalskrebs operiert wurden....

Policymakers from the Federal Reserve and European Central Bank used speeches at last week’s annual meeting in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to reiterate their commitment to fighting inflation despite the risk of pushing the economy into recession. .

The technology-dominant Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4%. U.S. Treasury prices, which were lower immediately after Powell’s speech, fell more sharply on Monday....

It comes as ministers face increasing pressure to ease the burden of rising living costs on households across the UK. Social housing tenants and landlords are being asked their views on the idea of ​​a proposed rent cap, which the government says could save vulnerable households an average of £300 a year and provide financial stability to four million families. The temporary cap will run from 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024 and the consultation, launched today, will also seek views on whether to put a cap in place for 2024-2025....

“Since 1950, two Augusts have had no named Atlantic storm formations: 1961 and 1997,” tweeted Phil Klotzbach, a researcher at the University of Colorado. “For the first time since 1941, the Atlantic had no named storm activity (eg tropical storm or #hurricane) from July 3 to August 30.” But the trend may not continue. “This extremely quiet Atlantic tropical cyclone season is likely to end soon,” Klotzbach said Wednesday morning....

Hervé et Agapi sont dans le pré Hervé a participé l’an dernier à l’émission L’amour est dans le pré. En cela, il avait marqué de nombreux téléspectateurs. En effet, lorsque le fermier se présentait ainsi, il parlait ainsi de son passé amoureux inexistant. Et ainsi elle a avoué sa virginité. Heureusement, assez tôt, pendant la représentation, il rencontre un soignant normand qui a renversé la vapeur. A l’époque, elle était en compétition avec Vanessa qui convoitait aussi Hervé....

It was largely as bold as it was a beautiful display, but Jadon Sancho’s stunning first-half strike was enough to secure United back-to-back away wins for the first time since last September. For Leicester, who remain bottom, it was another disappointing result and was roundly booed. They might even have got a point if James Justin had fired home after meeting Patson Daka’s clever pass in stoppage time. For Ten Haag, who spent much of the game staring at the scene with his hands in his pockets on the edge of his technical area, the chatter after the wins over Liverpool and Southampton was standard, with the Dutchman stressing the importance of their preservation....

Justin Sullivan | Getty Images The head of McDonald’s US publicly criticized a landmark California bill on Wednesday that would give the state more control over pay for fast-food workers, saying it unfairly targets big chains. The comments by Joe Erlinger, president of McDonald’s USA, come after the California state Senate earlier this week approved a bill that would give a 10-person board the power to raise the industry’s minimum wage to $22 an hour for chains with more than 100 locations nationwide....

Comment If humans want to explore Mars in the future, they will need to create oxygen. Now, a small device the size of a toaster is on the planet doing just that. In a study published this week in the journal Science Advances, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology showed that the Mars In situ Oxygen Resource Experiment – known as MOXIE – can produce oxygen from carbon dioxide, which is abundant in the Martian atmosphere ....

Day and night, and throughout the seasons, the instrument reliably produces breathable oxygen from the Red Planet’s thin atmosphere. Nearly 100 million miles from Earth, on the red and dusty surface of Mars, an instrument the size of a lunch box proves it can reliably do the job of a small tree. The MIT-led Mars Oxygen Resource Utilization Experiment, or MOXIE, has been successfully producing oxygen from the Red Planet’s carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere since April 2021....
