are a senior professional. You know that consistency is the foundation
of visibility. Everyone tells you that you must post daily, but you
know the truth: “I simply do not have the time for that.”

The pressure to post daily is what leads to the greatest visibility

Graying hair may reflect a natural defense against cancer risk, new
study finds [[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=247037&nl=daily]
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=247037&nl=daily]

unrelated phenomena. But according to a new study from The University
of Tokyo, both outcomes may arise from how pigment-producing stem
cells respond to DNA damage. These cells, located in hair follicles,
face a critical decision under genotoxic stress: either to
differentiate and exit the system--leading to graying--or to continue
dividing, which may eventually lead to tumor formation.
