Oncologists turn to blood test for circulating tumor DNA, but
questions remain on how to use the data

The hope for many cancer patients who go through surgery is that
they’ll be cured after the surgeon removes the tumor. The question
that lingers is whether they got it all out — if the surgery
happened in time before cancer cells scattered off of the primary
tumor to seed unseen metastases or if some microscopic malignancy was
left behind near the original cancer site.To answer this question,
clinicians are increasingly turning to blood tests that detect
circulating tumor DNA, known as ctDNA. The idea is that finding tumor
DNA in the blood probably means that cancer cells are still growing
somewhere in the body, even at a low level. These tests are starting
to be used in a variety of cancers — and for the most part,
clinicians agree that if the test is positive, the cancer will likely
recur. The trouble is that scientists aren’t sure what should happen
next.

Prime Minister Simon Harris has until March 2025 to put the question
to the country, but Sinn Féin’s surprisingly poor performance in
this month’s European and council elections may well encourage him
to join Britain and France in holding a snap election — around the
time America, too, will go to the polls.Lawmakers in Ireland’s
three-party government have told POLITICO that Harris may be tempted
by Sinn Féin’s sudden weakness to press the advantage. That would
mean holding the next parliamentary contest by November in hopes of
keeping his Irish republican enemies out of power for another five
years.

In 2013, I warned that a Pax Sinica in the Middle East might replace
America's predominant role. As the largest importer of Persian Gulf
oil, China wants stability in the region. To that end, China's first
venture into Middle East diplomacy came in December 2022, when it
issued a joint statement with the Sunni Gulf States chastising Iran's
disruptive role in the region. But when Beijing brokered the
restoration of diplomatic relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia in
March 2023, China proved it had arrived as a major power in the
region.China provides the Gulf monarchies with AI-controlled solar
energy, Cloud computing, 5G broadband, and transportation
infrastructure. The Saudis and Emiratis probably are Huawei's largest
foreign market for 5G infrastructure, despite urgent U.S. warnings
against doing business with the Chinese national champion. For our
part, we don't sell telecom infrastructure, because we stopped making
it a generation ago.

More than just a nuisance, mosquitoes can carry devastating illnesses
like Zika, dengue fever, malaria, and West Nile disease and are
responsible for over a million deaths every year. And while
historically, they have been more prevalent in tropical climates,
mosquitoes carrying disease-causing organisms have expanded their
reach as the planet warms—including parts of the United States like
Connecticut, California, and Arizona.Mosquitoes use a variety of cues
to home in on their targets. Odor distinguishes people from other
animals, and some mosquitoes have evolved to seek out our unique
bouquet. From up to 200 feet away, they follow the carbon dioxide
plumes we exhale with each breath. As they approach several feet
closer, they smell the odors emanating from our feet, underarms, and
skin. At around 50 feet, they begin to see us as dark silhouettes
against the light. Finally, pools of heat guide them to the choicest
sites on which to land while taste receptors on their feet help them
decide where to bite.

Before the Great Migration, there was the Great Exodus. Here's what

In 1877, her great-grandmother Emma Johnson and other ancestors moved
from Georgetown and Lexington, Kentucky, to establish one of the first
all-Black towns west of the Mississippi River. Her family’s move to
Kansas was a precursor to the Great Exodus, the first voluntary mass
migration of African Americans from the South to what we now call the
Midwest, including Kansas, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. The Ku Klux Klan
rose to power, using lynchings and mob violence to terrorize Black
communities. Southern states enacted Black Codes, local laws intended
to disenfranchise African Americans and force them into exploitative
labor systems like sharecropping. According to Davis, these despotic
rules laid the groundwork for the more formalized Jim Crow laws that
followed.

A Foreign Policy for the World as It Is

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=19964&nl=daily]
“America is back.” In the early days of his presidency, Joe Biden
repeated those words as a starting point for his foreign policy. The
phrase offered a bumper-sticker slogan to pivot away from Donald
Trump’s chaotic leadership. It also suggested that the United States
could reclaim its self-conception as a virtuous hegemon, that it could
make the rules-based international order great again. Yet even though
a return to competent normalcy was in order, the Biden
administration’s mindset of restoration has occasionally struggled
against the currents of our disordered times. An updated conception of
U.S. leadership—one tailored to a world that has moved on from
American primacy and the eccentricities of American politics—is
necessary to minimize enormous risks and pursue new opportunities.To
be sure, Biden’s initial pledge was a balm to many after Trump’s
presidency ended in the dual catastrophes of COVID-19 and the January
6 insurrection. Yet two challenges largely beyond the Biden
administration’s control shadowed the message of superpower
restoration. First was the specter of Trump’s return. Allies watched
nervously as the former president maintained his grip on the
Republican Party and Washington remained mired in dysfunction.
Autocratic adversaries, most notably Russian President Vladimir Putin,
bet on Washington’s lack of staying power. New multilateral
agreements akin to the Iran nuclear deal, the Paris agreement on
climate change, or the Trans-Pacific Partnership were impossible,
given the vertiginous swings in U.S. foreign policy.

The United States is in a cold war with the People’s Republic of
China, and it urgently needs a strategy led and directed by the
president himself if it is going to win. Absent such leadership,
Washington’s approach to China will remain fragmented,
contradictory, and unfocused. The absence of leadership is in stark
contrast to Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Secretary-General Xi Jinping
and the approach that he laid out in the country’s 20th National
Congress in 2022, which directs all instruments of China’s power to
wage a “protracted struggle”—in other words, a cold
war—against the United States.The United States is in a cold war

state-recognized ethnic Muslim minority nationality called the Hui.
Partly descendants of Arab and Persian traders from the times of the

the Han majority. Despite this long history of assimilation, they find
themselves today at the epicenter of a nationwide Sinification
campaign that started in the wake of the Chinese Communist Party’s

Jinping instructed religious groups to “adhere to the leadership”
of the Communist Party (CCP) and to “merge [their doctrines] with
Chinese culture.”

varenicline and an e-cigarette without nicotine, or a placebo tablet
and a nicotine-free e-cigarette for 12 weeks. All three groups were
also given intensive tobacco cessation counseling.The JAMA study is
the first published randomized controlled trial to compare
varenicline, also known as Chantix, directly to e-cigarettes. Several
studies have demonstrated that e-cigarettes can help adults quit
smoking. However, most studies have compared e-cigarettes to placebo
alone, or to nicotine replacement therapy, such as patches and
lozenges, which help smokers manage their withdrawal symptoms.

There are few filmmakers more curious about the emotional lives of the
elderly than the wunderkind documentarian Lance Oppenheim. In 2020,
Oppenheim, then twenty-four years old, released "Some Kind of Heaven,"
a documentary about an enormous retirement community in Florida that
is more like an amusement park or a college campus than a place where
people go to grow old. The community, called the Villages, provided no
shortage of eccentric personas for Oppenheim's generous character
studies: one central figure of the film was a bad-boy senior citizen
named Dennis, who lived in a van by the Villages, trawling the
property for women to hitch his wagon to, both romantically and
financially. "I said from the get-go that I wanted to live fast, love
hard, and die poor," he said.This spring, Oppenheim released
"Spermworld," a documentary adaptation of a Times story about the
sperm-donation black market. This film, too, is a series of portraits,
and one of "Spermworld" 's subjects is a single sixtysomething
sperm donor named Steve who gives women sperm out of some do-gooder
instinct gone astray. He expects nothing in returnâuntil he forges a
connection with one of the recipients, Rachel, many decades his
junior, who clings onto the hope that she will get pregnant in spite
of having cystic fibrosis. The pair strike up an unlikely and
bittersweet friendship that teeters, achingly, on the brink of
romantic. From Oppenheim's vantage, the elderly are riveting subjects,
full of experience and regret, and imbued with a sense of urgency as
they try to fulfill their desires.

What Does Benny Gantz Want for Israel?

When Benny Gantz quit Israel’s emergency wartime cabinet, on June
9th, he did so with some political mudslinging. He and two of his
colleagues in the centrist National Unity Party had joined Benjamin
Netanyahu’s government immediately after the Hamas-led attacks of
October 7th, “even though we knew it was a bad government,” Gantz
said. “We did it because we knew it was a bad
government.”“The people of Israel, the fighters, the commanders,
the families of the murdered, the casualties, and the hostages needed
unity and support like they needed air to breathe,” Gantz went on.
But unity was short-lived. In Netanyahu’s government, he said,
“fateful strategic decisions are met with hesitation and
procrastination due to political considerations.” Riffing on the
Prime Minister’s motto of “total victory” against Hamas, Gantz
claimed that “Netanyahu prevents us from progressing to real
victory.” As a result, he said, “we are leaving the emergency
government today with a heavy but whole heart.”

Our brains are wired to be deceived. I’m married to a professional
magician, so I’m intimately familiar with the kinds of techniques
that can fool the eye and trick the senses. But the human mind’s
vulnerability to misdirection is more universal than that.
Neurologists and psychologists have found that our predilection for
trusting others—a trait that has helped us survive as a species—is
a major reason con artists thrive. This trait also makes dissimulation
fascinating and appealing, especially in literature. Readers love the
stories of swindlers and their gullible targets, of grifters
themselves being tricked, and every iteration in between. They thrill
us by upending the expected and making us question our assumptions.The
six books below all delve into deception. Some tell tales of elaborate
confidence schemes; others interrogate why people are frequently
defenseless against cons that, from the outside, seem obvious. Several
books also dig into how we’re liable to deceive ourselves, often to
our detriment. Each is a fascinating read that will stick with you
and, perhaps, make you a bit more likely to realize when you’re not
seeing the truth.

On the day before the FBI obtained the search warrant, one of the
agents on the case sent an email to his bosses, according to The New
York Times. “The F.B.I. intends for the execution of the warrant to
be handled in a professional, low key manner,” he wrote, “and to
be mindful of the optics of the search.” It was, and they were.On
the day of the search, Trump was out of the state. The club at
Mar-a-Lago was closed. Agents alerted one of Trump’s lawyers in
advance of the search. And before the search, the FBI communicated
with the Secret Service “to make sure we could get into Mar-a-Lago
with no issues,” according to the testimony of former Assistant FBI
Director Steven D’Antuono. It wasn’t a “show of force,” he
said. “I was adamant about that, and that was something we all
agreed on.”

hotter-than-normal weather. For every 1 degree Celsius that
temperatures rise above average, approvals fell by nearly 1
percent—and their value by more than 6.5 percent.It’s not just the
heat. In May, yet another beachfront house in North Carolina’s Outer
Banks tumbled into the angry sea. It’s the sixth home lost along
Cape Hatteras National Seashore since 2020. Researchers say lenders
are increasingly trying to pass on the risk of mortgaging coastal
properties due to calamities like this. Wildfires, hurricanes, and
flooding are also impacting other financial services used by
homeowners. It’s increasingly difficult to get home insurance in
Minnesota, for instance, following extreme hail storms in recent
years.

The current chair of the Federal Trade Commission is the opposite of a

alleged big tech monopolies, employers' noncompete agreements,
accusations of "declaring war" on entrepreneurs, and early attempts
to regulate the most interesting tech revolution in decades: AI.One of
the things Khan's FTC is known for is chasing after big tech
monopolies, and her answer to a question about large

now there is a whole lot of opacity around who's getting access" to
the key parts of AI tech--be it the models themselves, or computer

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=19964&nl=daily]
Battery tech is something we take for granted nowadays. We usually
only think about the little packets of advanced chemistry squeezed
inside our gadgets when we're far from a charger and that pesky little
battery icon turns red. But the lithium-based batteries that power
pretty much every gadget nowadays may be set to be replaced by a new
solid ceramic type that promises more than a bit more juice per
battery. A new innovation from TDK, which makes batteries for
global tech brands like Tesla and Apple, means next-generation
batteries could contain vastly more energy in the same sized unit.Why
is this exciting? Portable technology has essentially plateaued
because of the limits on battery life and the need to recharge the
power source. This affects personal electronic devices like
headphones, smartwatches and smartphones, business hardware like
laptops, card readers and remote sensors, as well as other devices
that form part of the Internet-of-Things and some medical gadgets.

Four years ago, Lauren Scott was scrolling through TikTok when she saw
a video from EcommJess, a personal finance influencer with 750,000
followers, promoting Yotta Savings, a fintech app offering a chance to
win cash and other prizes on top of regular interest. Scott liked the
novel sweepstakes incentive and Yotta's lack of fees, along with
something way more traditional. "It was FDIC-insured, which was one of
the main things that I looked for because you never know what to
trust," says Scott, 27, who lives in the Tacoma, Washington suburbs
with her husband and seven-year-old daughter. Eventually, the couple
moved all their money to Yotta.Now the Scotts are among 200,000 or so
fintech customersâincluding 85,000 from Yottaâwho have been denied
access to their "FDIC insured" accounts since mid-May, following the
Chapter 11 bankruptcy of a fintech intermediary: San Francisco's
Synapse Financial Technologies. It's unclear when they'll get access
to their money, and even whether they'll get it all back; at a court
hearing Friday, former FDIC Chair Jelena McWilliams, appointed as
bankruptcy trustee in the case, said there's a "shortfall" between
Synapse's records and those of the banks currently estimated at $65
million to $96 million. Significantly, she added that it's looking
increasingly likely that this isn't just a case of bad bookkeeping but
a real shortfall-i.e. missing money-that existed before the bankruptcy
filing and could take time and extensive investigation to sort out.

The federal agency forecasts between 17 and 25 named

On June 1, China’s Chang’e-6 lander touched down in the South
Pole-Atkin Basin — the largest, deepest, and oldest impact crater on
the Moon. The probe almost immediately set to work drilling into the
ground to collect about 2 kilograms of lunar material, which is
already headed back to Earth, with a landing in Mongolia planned for
June 25. It isn’t just planetary geologists who are excited at what
the returning rocks and soil might reveal. If we’re lucky, the first
samples from the lunar farside could also include some of the oldest
fossils ever found.The SPA basin, as it’s sometimes called, is the
result of a gigantic impact that occurred between 4.2 and 4.3 billion
years ago, at a time when the Moon and Earth were very close
neighbors. The crater is roughly 2,500 kilometers (1,600 miles) in
diameter and between 6.2 km and 8.2 km (3.9 to 5.1 mi) deep,
encompassing several smaller craters like the Apollo basin, where
Chang’e-6 landed, and Shackleton crater, parts of which lie in
perpetual shadow.

On May 4, Rafael Teixeira watched with concern as water started to
seep into his house in Canoas, a town in Brazil’s southernmost
state. Over the next few hours, Teixeira and his family were forced to
grab essential items and flee the house, leaving most of their
belongings behind. By the time they left, the waterline had risen to
Teixeira’s neck.The Teixeiras, who are now sheltering in a city more
than 100 kilometers away, estimate they lost at least 30,000 reais
(over $6,000) worth of personal belongings, not including the cost of
damages to their home. Two days after they left Canoas, Teixeira and
his relatives posted calls for donations on Instagram and WhatsApp.
They included their Pix “keys” — aliases linked to a bank
account that make easy, safe, and quick transfers of money possible.
The family has so far received over 5,000 reais (about $1,000) through
at least 35 donations made through Pix, a digital payment system
launched by Brazil’s central bank in 2020.
