Over the past couple weeks it's ramped up. Different users. Can't tell if this is browser compromise, cookie stealing… or some other local-to-user failure.
Thoughts?

3 in 4 Britons (74%) concerned about climate change today following heatwave summer
London, UK. New polling data from Ipsos in the UK, conducted 31st July – 4th August 2026, reveals a significant shift in public concern following a summer of elevated temperatures.

The Cascade of Dysfunction That Helped Doom Jason Arday
In a better world, the late scholar wouldn’t have been elevated to—and fallen from—such dizzying heights.

For a while now, the global economy has been beating the odds.
The energy shock prompted by the American and Israeli attacks on Iran in February set off the largest disruption of worldwide energy flows in history. Yet despite jumps in oil prices, widening conflict in the Middle East, fuel shortages and inflation pressures, the feared crash never came and most economies managed to muddle through.
But wiggle room is narrowing at the same time the outlook is darkening. Look at what …

Global Economy Is Running Out of Wiggle Room
Many countries blunted the most painful effects of the energy shock from the war in Iran. But prices remain elevated and risks are multiplying.

As higher prices are burning a larger hole in consumers’ wallets,
it may seem counterintuitive that the Federal Reserve made borrowing costs even higher by raising rates on Wednesday.
But the reason stems from the fact that even though rates are higher than they were for much of the first two decades of the 2000s,
consumer spending, business investment and other measures of the health of the economy are all running hot.
And inflation, the rise in prices that can resu…

Why the Fed Might Raise Interest Rates When Borrowing Costs Are Surging
Elevated interest rates have raised the cost of mortgages and car loans without dampening consumer spending.

Several weeks ago I set up an elevated, sheltered dust bath for the birds in my yard. So far I've had one (1) visitor and it appeared underwhelmed. Do you think the bowl needs to be larger? Or is it an elevation problem? #birds

U.S. inflation accelerated last month
as gas prices spiked in the wake of renewed fighting in the Middle East,
underscoring the affordability challenges that are top of mind for many voters with midterm elections now just seven weeks away.
The consumer price index rose 3.4% last month compared with a year ago,
the Labor Department said Friday,
the same as in July.
But on a monthly basis, inflation quickened,
as costs jumped 0.4% from July to August…

U.S. Inflation Accelerates as Gas Prices Continue to Climb
The figures show that inflation remains stubbornly elevated, more than five years after prices first soared as the economy emerged from the COVID pandemic.

SoCal has had ‘so many heat waves,’ but this next one is a doozy:
The weekend is expected to bring dangerous heat starting Friday,
with forecasters warning of elevated risks of heat illness and large wildfires.
High pressure over Arizona will expand west through the weekend,
reaching California’s interior deserts and potentially as far west as the coast, according to the National Weather Service.
That will send temperatures about 10 degrees above normal in man…

The global sell-off in government bonds that has recently been gathering steam has pushed borrowing costs to their highest levels in decades.
Many analysts think the jump is not a blip but a lasting return to the elevated interest rates that were once common.
This shift is uncomfortable,
making it more expensive for governments, households and businesses to get loans.
It also shows the market is sending signals to central bankers that the short-term rates they contro…

Nanoscale silicon sensor - guided new insights into early metabolic response of Escherichia coli to ampicillin

Abstract: Antibiotic killing is often attributed to inhibition of specific cellular targets, yet metabolic processes can strongly influence drug efficacy. However, the relationship between metabolic responses and antibiotic lethality remains incompletely understood. Here, we employed silicon nanowire field-effect transistor (SiNWFET) sensors to monitor real-time metabolic responses of Escherichia coli to ampicillin (AMP). AMP treatment induced a biphasic extracellular pH signature, characterized by rapid acidification followed by alkalization. Metabolomic analyses revealed that the initial acidification resulted from organic acid secretion, whereas the subsequent alkalization was associated with altered amino acid metabolism and formate flux. Using metabolic and respiratory mutants, we found that these extracellular signatures reflected pathway-specific metabolic rewiring that predicted bacterial killing. AMP lethality strongly correlated with ATP dynamics and formate secretion: strains exhibiting larger AMP-induced ATP increases and greater formate secretion showed enhanced susceptibility. In contrast to literature, changes in NADH and NADPH levels did not support redox stress as the primary bacterial-killing mechanism. Together, our findings identify formate metabolism as a key pathway underlying the elevated ATP levels associated with AMP bactericidal activity. These results demonstrate that SiNWFET sensors provide a versatile label-free tool for probing antibiotic mechanisms, rapidly assessing bacterial susceptibility, and potentially guiding antimicrobial therapy development.

‘Every Single Rep’: Ashton Jeanty’s Next Transformation Should Have NFL Defenses on High Alert https://heavy.com/sports/nfl/las-vegas-raiders/ashton-jeanty-running-back-evolution-raiders/

There are several, overlapping reasons for the bond market sell-off.
One is inflation.
Treasuries, which pay a fixed amount each year, are in part a bet on the future value of money
– with higher inflation eroding the real value of those payments.
With the Iran conflict slipping towards a forever war, keeping oil prices elevated,
and amid concerns about the new Federal Reserve chair Kevin Warsh’s willingness to raise interest rates,
investors are fretting …

In the early 2000s, social life followed a clear weekly rhythm:
Modest weekday interaction built toward pronounced peaks on Friday and Saturday nights.
Since the mid-2010s, that rhythm has collapsed.
Friday night, once a central site of social activity, now looks like a typical weeknight.
Saturday remains elevated but less so than before.
Overall, time with friends has fallen by more than half.
The mix of social activities, however, has remained stabl…
