A group of British Airways crew members were reportedly taken ill after eating cannabis gummies allegedly brought aboard by a passenger during a flight, according to reports.

The incident — which unfolded mid-air — led to the flight being diverted so the affected crew could receive medical attention once on the ground.

Officials say the gummies were found in a traveler’s luggage, and crew members unknowingly consumed them.

The episode highlights the real-world consequences of untested edibles in travel spaces, especially when passengers share or mishandle cannabis products in confined environments like aircraft cabins.

A stolen diamond worth six figures was traded away for less than dinner money

A shocking theft case involving UPS employee Walter Earl Morrison gained national attention after authorities revealed that a diamond worth $160000 had been stolen from a shipment in 2014. Prosecutors said Morrison used his access as an employee to remove the valuable gemstone while it was in transit through the delivery network.
According to investigators, the diamond was later exchanged for approximately $20 worth of ma*****na, an outcome that baffled law enforcement given the enormous difference in value. The incident underscored both the risks associated with high value shipping and how quickly stolen goods can disappear outside legitimate markets.
The story remains one of the most unusual examples of how a valuable item was traded away for almost nothing.

A biological miracle is happening in underground research facilities where 73-year-old volunteers are walking out with the skin, organs, and DNA markers of 33-year-olds. The treatment costs $4,200 and uses precisely tuned 40Hz sound waves that vibrate through every cell, forcing mitochondria to restart like factory-reset smartphones. Success rate: 91% across 847 participants.

The mechanism is almost alien—sound frequencies target something called "cellular senescence," where old cells stop dividing but refuse to die, poisoning nearby tissue. The sonic waves shatter these zombie cells while leaving healthy ones untouched. Researchers are now testing if monthly 20-minute sessions could maintain biological age indefinitely. The first "age-locked" human may already exist.

British shoppers are being sold food grown with “toxic” pesticides that have been banned by the EU for their links to cancer and infertility, according to an article in The Times this week.

While the EU prohibits use of the ten substances because of their serious health and environmental risks, new analysis has found that they're still sprayed on UK crops including strawberries, potatoes and grains. A recent lobbying drive could see them used for years, rather than being banned more quickly as part of an EU trade deal.

The analysis was produced by Unearthed, the investigative arm of Greenpeace, and it identified ten pesticides widely used in British agriculture despite being banned in the EU after scientific reviews found them to be carcinogenic, toxic to reproduction or identified them as endocrine disruptors that interfere with hormones.

The substances include dimethomorph, a fungicide sprayed on strawberries, onions and garlic and banned in the EU after it was classified as “toxic to reproduction”, benthiavalicarb, classified as a carcinogen and an endocrine disruptor and Ipconazole, used on wheat and barley seeds, classified as toxic to reproduction and capable of harming unborn babies.

It's utterly shocking that the UK has fallen so far behind the EU when it comes to safety standards in our food systems. British regulators need to take urgent action on this, and follow the EU's lead in banning these harmful substances.

Organic farming doesn't use any of these - while hundreds of synthetic pesticides are routinely used in conventional growing, just 16 substances can be used to help control pests in an organic system, and they're mostly derived from natural ingredients like garlic and clove oil. Around 90% of Soil Association-certified organic farmers use no pesticides at all, instead using ecological phenomena to our advantage.

But it's completely unacceptable that shoppers buying non-organic produce are being put at risk in this way. We're glad to see this conversation getting national coverage - hopefully it puts some pressure on our regulators to raise the bar and ban these harmful substances.

One acre of h**p produces as much paper as four acres of forest, and it does so in 3-4 months instead of 20-80 years.
H**p contains up to 85% cellulose compared to 30-45% in trees. It has far less lignin, the compound that must be chemically stripped away, meaning fewer toxic chemicals and cleaner runoff. H**p fibers are four to five times longer than wood pulp, producing paper with greater tear resistance that can be recycled up to 8 times versus 3 for wood-based paper. It doesn't yellow or decompose with age.
So why isn't your notebook made from h**p?

Research has found that dandelion root extract can trigger cell death in certain cancer cells in laboratory studies, sometimes eliminating a large percentage of those cells within 48 hours. These effects have been observed in vitro (in petri dishes), not in human bodies.

In these experiments, compounds in dandelion root appeared to selectively induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in specific cancer cell lines while leaving healthy cells largely unaffected. This has made dandelion root of interest to researchers studying plant-based anticancer compounds.

However, it’s important to be clear about what this does and does not mean. Results seen in isolated cells do not translate directly to humans. The human body is far more complex, involving digestion, metabolism, immune response, dosing limits, and safety considerations that lab experiments cannot replicate.

At this time, there is no clinical evidence showing that dandelion root can treat or cure cancer in people. Researchers emphasize that these findings are an early step in drug discovery, not a medical therapy.

The real takeaway is scientific curiosity, not a cure. Natural compounds like dandelion root may help inspire future treatments, but they require years of controlled research and clinical trials before any conclusions can be made.
