| Today’s Morning News | Your Daily Cartoon | | | Olympic Medals Aren’t What They Used to Be | American skateboarder Nyjah Huston recently voiced concerns over the durability of the Olympic medals awarded at the Paris Games after his own bronze medal showed significant signs of wear and tear shortly after winning it. Huston, who clinched third place in the men's street event, shared his disappointment through a video on Instagram. | "All right, so these Olympic medals look great when they are brand new," Huston remarked, setting the stage for a revelation about the less-than-stellar quality of these prestigious awards. He continued, "But after letting it sit on my skin with some sweat for a little bit and then letting my friends wear it over the weekend, they are apparently not as high quality as you would think." | The visual evidence provided by Huston highlighted the quick deterioration of the medal's appearance. "It's looking rough. Even the front is starting to chip off a little," he disclosed, showing the physical damage to his bronze medal. This prompted him to suggest, "Olympic medals, you gotta maybe step up the quality a little bit." | Huston was not alone in his critique. Great Britain’s Yasmin Harper, who took home the bronze in the women's 3-meter synchronized springboard diving, also noticed issues with her medal. "There's been some small bits of tarnishing," Harper reported to the BBC, adding, "I think it's water or anything that gets under medal, it's making it go a little bit discolored, but I'm not sure." | In response to these complaints, the Paris Mint has committed to replacing any medal found to be defective. The Olympic organizers have also pledged to conduct thorough investigations into the reported damages. | | | Advertisement | Each year, the top anti-aging doctors in the world gather at the American Academy of Anti-Aging Congress. | | Each year, the top anti-aging doctors in the world gather at the American Academy of Anti-Aging Congress. It's a veritable Who's Who of award-winning scientists and doctors, who present their latest cutting-edge discoveries. This year, when other doctors at the conference asked me, "What are you working on, Greg?" and I told them, their eyes lit up. One doctor, who had a line-up of admirers waiting for him after his speech, pulled me aside to make plans for lunch. Just so he could hear more about this project. Another doctor bombarded me with text messages for days. "When can I get a sample of this?" Other doctors I spoke with couldn't wait to get their hands on it to give it to their patients. So what is it? A laser treatment? An IV? A new breakthrough in nutrigenomics? Actually, it's none of these. It's a simple thing you can do at home in just minutes.
