Navajo Nation faces devastating loss from Covid-19 pandemic – CNN

The Navajo had 2,304.41 cases of Covid-19 per 100,000 people at its peak in May, compared to the New York state rate of 1,806 cases per 100,000, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. Since the pandemic began up until November 22, the Navajo Nation has had 15,039 cases out of its population of 173,667 from the 2010 census, which means this hard-hit population has over 8,659 cases per 100,000 people. A recent surge in positive cases forced the Navajo Nation to go on lockdown until December 6. School is fully online, and most businesses are closed as the Navajo Nation works to reduce the spread of the virus. Essential businesses must close by 3 p.m. each day. Lack of government support Piñon High School Principal Timothy Nelson believes there are a number of reasons for the Nav...

Can Drinking Cocoa Make You Smarter? Cocoa Flavanols Found to Boost Brain Oxygenation and Cognition – SciTechDaily

The brains of healthy adults recovered faster from a mild vascular challenge and performed better on complex tests if the participants consumed cocoa flavanols beforehand, researchers report in the journal Scientific Reports. In the study, 14 of 18 participants saw these improvements after ingesting the flavanols. Previous studies have shown that eating foods rich in flavanols can benefit vascular function, but this is the first to find a positive effect on brain vascular function and cognitive performance in young healthy adults, said Catarina Rendeiro, a researcher and lecturer in nutritional sciences at the University of Birmingham who led the research with University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign psychology professors Monica Fabiani and Gabriele Gratton. “Flavanols are smal...

“Hillbilly Elegy” is “poverty-class cosplay” and “laughably bad” – reviews of Netflixs adaptations – Salon

J.D. Vance's Rust Belt memoir "Hillbilly Elegy," about his family's history of poverty in Appalachia, became a bipartisan bestseller in 2016, supposedly because it offered an explanation for who voted for a Trump's presidency. But a swift backlash highlighted the book's shortcomings: its negative generalizations about Appalachian culture and advancing the narrative that impoverished people are to blame for their own misfortunes (in contrast to how Vance's bootstrapping led to success). Ron Howard directs Netflix's adaptation of Vance's memoir, written by Academy Award-nominated "The Shape of Water" scribe Vanessa Taylor. Starring Amy Adams as Vance's mother and Glenn Close as his tough grandmother, the inspiring tale stinks of Oscar bait. Despite this pedigree, the original memoir's probl...

The Voice: John Legend tries to win back singer he eliminated in best knockouts ever – msnNOW

One performance on "The Voice" Monday "will go down in history as one of the best knockouts ever." That's what coach Kelly Clarkson said after playfully calling herself "so stupid" for pitting soulful singers Desz, 30, and Sid Kingsley, 37, against each other.  Desz brought the house down with a high-energy performance of Tevin Campbell's "Can We Talk," while Kingsley was equally impressive behind the piano on Foy Vance's "Make it Rain." "You are two of my favorite artists to work with," Clarkson said. "I’m so stupid for putting you two against each other. I can’t take it back. I really hope that someone gets stolen." Clarkson declared her "warrior vocalist" Desz the winner because, she said, "I'm always impressed when singers do things I couldn’t imagine doing." 'The Voice':John Legend c...

New data shows 28% rise in child COVID-19 cases in last two weeks – New York Post

New data shows an uptick in COVID-19 cases among children as health experts warn the public not to travel for the holidays. The American Academy of Pediatrics reported Monday there’s been 144,145 new cases of coronavirus in children from Nov. 12 to 19. Nearly 1.2 million children have tested positive for the virus as of Nov. 19, the AAP says. The surge in cases comes after several states across the U.S. have imposed tougher restrictions to curb the spread. In New York, Gov. Cuomo ordered bars and restaurants to close at 10 p.m., and encouraged small gatherings. The city is also setting up an emergency field hospital on Staten Island to treat COVID patients. In California, residents underwent an overnight curfew last week, and, in Pennsylvania, officials announced Monday ...

Cast: Sen, Kenny and Nafisa “When the heat of the plains could not be assuaged by fans and sharbat, I rushed to the cool heights of the hills called Shillong. The mountain ranges with their mantle of clouds seemed to beckon weary travellers to take refuge in the deep shade of woods on their hill sides. The meandering streamlets follow their course with soft murmur, caressing the heart with their soothing music.” -Rabindranath Tagore, Shillong-er Chithi, June 9th, 1923 (translated by Uma Purkayastha) “We decided to use this shawl as it represents the Lotha tribe from Nagaland.
