Dec. 21, 2025 - Don't ever stop working!

"Most of us spend our entire lives chasing the dream of having enough. What happens when that goal is met? Do we stop or is there reason to keep working anyway? If you have more to look back on than you have to look forward to, then you're telling your mind, body, and spirit to shut down... that they're no longer needed. We see this a lot after people retire when they immediately suffer health problems or even die. Don't ever stop working. If you stop the flow of money through you, your life will deteriorate."

—Dan Miller, author of "48 Days to the Work You Love" and founder of 48days.com—

Dec. 5, 2025 - CDC Vaccine Panel Votes to End Universal Hepatitis B Vaccine for All Newborns

Advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this morning voted to end a decades-long recommendation that all infants born in the U.S. receive the hepatitis B vaccine within 12-24 hours of birth.

Instead, for babies born to mothers who test negative for hepatitis B, the committee recommends that families determine whether to give their child the Hep B shot at birth through individual decision-making with their physician.

For infants who don’t get the birth dose, the committee recommends the initial dose of the vaccine not be administered until infants are at least 2 months old. For mothers whose hepatitis B status is unknown or who test positive, the birth dose recommendation remains in place.

Dr. Monique Yohanan, senior fellow for health policy at Independent Women, told The Defender there was never “a good science-based reason to have a universal vaccination that 99% of babies born in the United States are not at any risk,” and that the vote was “good news for babies.”

Nov. 23, 2025 - 2025 Fall Colors (紅葉) season

The Fall Colors (紅葉) season in Tokyo has finally arrived in earnest. This kind of beautiful scenery brings a lot of childhood joy to folks like myself, even after 3 decades here, as there is nothing even close to this in my home state of Texas. Japan is indeed one beautiful country. Our Creator has a pretty magnificent paintbrush, doesn't he? smiley

Oct. 31, 2025 - 79% of Studies on Childhood Vaccination and Autism Found a Link

Integrating over 300 scientific communications across epidemiologic, clinical, and mechanistic domains, the landmark McCullough Foundation Report, Determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder, has delivered the most authoritative, comprehensive, and extensively referenced synthesis to date on risk factors for autism.

Among 136 studies evaluating childhood vaccines or their components, 107 (79%) found associations between immunization and autism or other neurodevelopmental disorders, and 12 studies comparing routinely immunized versus completely unvaccinated children or young adults consistently demonstrated superior overall health outcomes among the unvaccinated, including significantly lower risks of chronic medical problems and neuropsychiatric disorders such as ASD.

The report concludes that autism arises from the intersection of genetic, environmental, and iatrogenic factors — but notably combination routine childhood vaccination early in life constitutes the most significant modifiable risk factor, supported by convergent clinical, mechanistic, and epidemiologic evidence.

As autism prevalence climbs to more than 1 in 31 U.S. children, understanding and mitigating preventable contributors has become a pressing public health priority.

Oct. 22, 2025 - 56% suspect Covid-19 vaccines caused deaths and one-in-four know one of the victims

More than half of likely US voters say they believe Covid-19 vaccines may have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.

According to a new Rasmussen Reports poll, 56% say it’s at least somewhat likely that vaccine side effects led to such deaths, including 32% who say it’s very likely and nearly one-in-four say someone they know could be among the victims. Thirty-five percent (35%) say it’s not likely, including 17% who believe it’s not at all likely. These numbers are nearly unchanged from a year ago.

The survey also shows strong support for Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has been openly critical of the government’s handling of the pandemic. Half (50%) of voters say government health officials deserve criticism for their Covid-19 response, while 37% say Kennedy’s criticism is unfair.

Forty-two percent (42%) say some Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) employees involved in the government’s Covid-19 response should be fired. That view rises to 71% among those who believe vaccine side effects likely caused deaths...

Oct. 10, 2025 - "An Inconvenient Study" film

An ICAN and Del Bigtree Film

THIS COULD CHANGE EVERYTHING

In 2016, journalist Del Bigtree issued a challenge to the head of infectious disease at one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the world: conduct the most thorough vaxxed vs. unvaxxed study that has ever been done. The expert took up the challenge and ran the study to prove Del wrong. That study never saw the light of day... until now.
