Country musician Colt Ford, born Jason Farris Brown, is currently in critical condition after suffering a heart attack following a performance in Gilbert, Arizona. Ford’s representative confirmed his condition, stating that he is currently in stable but critical condition in the ICU at Banner Desert Medical Center in Mesa, Arizona.
Ford, 54, had recently performed at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row before his health scare. He was scheduled to perform at the Star of the Desert Arena in Primm, Nevada, on Friday night.
Known for blending country and rap genres, Ford has several No. 1 hits to his name and is the original recording artist of Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem,” which has amassed over 927 million worldwide streams.
Ford’s unique musical style has earned him recognition, including being the only artist to achieve a No. 1 album on both the Billboard Top Country Albums (“Declaration of Independence”) and Top Rap Albums (“Thanks for Listening”) charts.

Tony Cavallaro, a 64-year-old man from an undisclosed location, is fighting to reunite with his longtime companion, Albert, a 12-foot, 750-pound alligator, after authorities seized the reptile. Cavallaro, who has owned Albert for 34 years, describes the alligator as his “emotional support animal” and has launched a petition to bring him back home.
The ordeal began when law enforcement officials, reportedly acting on behalf of the Department of Environmental Conservation, confiscated Albert from Cavallaro’s care. The alligator was sedated and had its mouth taped before being taken to an unknown location by the state agency.
According to NPR, the Department of Environmental Conservation cited Cavallaro’s expired license to keep Albert, which reportedly expired in 2021. Additionally, the agency alleges that Cavallaro endangered others by allowing them to interact with Albert, including petting and swimming with the reptile in its pool.
Thousands have signed a petition asking the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to return an 800-pound alligator to its owner.
Tony Cavallaro got Albert as a hatchling at a reptile show in 1990. He called the reptile his son.
Despite the agency’s claims, Cavallaro vehemently denies that Albert poses any threat to others. He has hired a lawyer and is determined to bring his beloved alligator back home.
In a Facebook post, Cavallaro expressed the anguish he feels over the separation from Albert, stating, “I can’t express how much this is destroying my life. I miss him so much… I’m mentally and physically exhausted.”
Support for Cavallaro and Albert has been pouring in from friends and strangers alike. A petition on change.org calling for Albert’s return has garnered over 120,000 signatures. Some supporters have even created “Free Albert” T-shirts and buttons to raise awareness of the situation.

Archaeologists working in Panama uncovered a 1,200-year-old gold-laden tomb in 2024 that is believed to belong to a pre-Hispanic member of royalty.
The tomb was found in the El Caño archaeological park in the Coclé province, Panama, and is believed to be the burial grounds of of an “important Coclé lord,” according to a press release from Panama’s Ministry of Culture. It’s believed the individual lived in the late 750s to the early 800s A.D., and was extremely wealthy and well-to-do given the absolute hoard of goodies he was buried with.
A majority of the items found with this fancy man are ceramics, but there was also a lot of jewelry and gold. “2 belts of spherical gold beads, 4 bracelets, 2 earrings in the shape of human figures (male and female), [and] an earring in the shape of a double crocodile” are among the discoveries, the press release stated. Another five earrings made from sperm whale teeth with gold covers were uncovered, along with a set of gold plates, bells, bracelets and bone flutes are just some of the additional historical and cultural artifacts from the site.

A leading skin cancer doctor is hopeful that an experimental treatment will bring a miracle and cure his nearly uncurable brain cancer.
Richard Scolyer is a professor at Sydney University in Australia and a surgical pathologist. Professor Scolyer is also suffering from one of the deadliest forms of cancer – a glioblastoma. . .
Scolyer – a 57-year-old married father with three children – was diagnosed with brain cancer last June.
For a treatment strategy, Scolyer turned to Georgina Long – his friend and co-director of the Melanoma Institute Australia. . .
Professor Scolyer was the first in the world to delay brain surgery to remove the tumor and start with pre-surgery combination immunotherapy.
“Combination immunotherapy counters several immunosuppressive elements in the tumor microenvironment and activates multiple steps of the cancer-immunity cycle,” according to the National Library of Medicine.

Scientists have apparently developed a type of visible light communication (VLC) technology that can potentially transmit data using conventional lighting fixtures faster than WiFi.
An open access paper published first in 2018, and updated in early 2024, described how we could soon get rid of our WiFi modems and use VLCs because they could be a much, much faster means of transmitting information digitally. Unlike WiFi, which uses radio waves to transmit data, VLC uses sources of light to send data back and forth between devices, which can be over 100 times faster than the latter.
The process (software, tool??) is known colloquially as Li-Fi, and is a fully network system designed to incorporate ultraviolet light, infrared light and the visible light spectrum, according to Live Science. VLC hasn’t reached any kind of broad-scale adoption because it’s unidirectional, the light source has to be on all the time and it requires a direct line of sight with a receiver. But once these issues have been overcome, we could literally use our existing infrastructure to normalize the sharing of data.
This is both amazingly cool and good, but possibly the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my entire adult life.
RL Editor’s note: LiFi is already being used in fiber optic applications. See video below:

. . .The tiny “non-human” mummified remains found in Peru over the summer that spurred dozens of alien conspiracy theories are nothing more than dolls, forensic experts ruled.
The creepy figures — with only three fingers on each hand and elongated ET-style heads — are made with paper, glue, metal and human and animal bones, the country’s prosecutor’s office said Friday.
“The conclusion is simple: they are dolls assembled with bones of animals from this planet, with modern synthetic glues, therefore they were not assembled during pre-Hispanic times,” forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada, who led the analysis, told reporters.
“They are not extraterrestrials; they are not aliens.” . . .
"It is a totally made-up story."
Peruvian scientist Flavio Estrada lambasts the "pseudoscientists" with "an economic interest" who have spent years promoting fake alien mummies. Most recently with infamous hoaxer Jaime Maussan in the Mexican Congress.
They said examinations showed the bones of birds, dogs and other animals were used to create the effigies, except for their “very poorly” built hands, which were created with human bones. (Read more from “This Is What the Two ‘Non-human’ Alien Corpses Found in Peru Really Are” HERE)

A 62-year-old Australian woman was given the right to extract sperm from her deceased husband and is facing a legal battle to be able to use it.
According to the New York Post, the woman was looking to conceive a child via surrogate when her 61-year-old husband passed away last month. The woman, whose name was not published, presented an “urgent” case to the Supreme Court to have her husband’s sperm tissue removed from his body.
Before the husband’s death, the two were reportedly discussing having another child after their 29-year-old daughter drowned on a fishing trip in 2013 and their 30-year-old son died in a car accident in 2019.
However, the use of reproductive cells after death is against the law in Western Australia, where the woman lives. She will have to apply to the country’s Reproductive Technology Council to use the sperm in another state where it is legal to do so (via NYP):
While the wife had been told that she could not conceive due to her age, the husband’s sperm was previously tested and deemed suitable for in-vitro fertilization, wherein a female egg is fertilized by male sperm in a lab before being implanted in the carrier.
The woman’s cousin, who is in her 20s and lives in the Philippines, had even volunteered to be the couple’s surrogate, the court heard.
At the time of the man’s death, however, the couple was still grappling with legal obstacles to the surrogacy, which would have required them to live in the Philippines for a while, the documents explained.

The Food and Drug Administration may ban the use of brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food, the agency announced in a statement on Thursday.
The organization “proposed to revoke the regulation authorizing” its use and declared that “the intended use of BVO in food is no longer considered safe,” citing studies conducted in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which found potentially dangerous health effects.
The citrus-boosting additive was previously used in beverages including Gatorade, Coca-Cola, Pepsi and other products and still remains in drinks including Sun Drop and numerous off-brand sodas.
The FDA announced that the toxicology reports have given the administration “conclusive scientific evidence to support [the] proposal to remove the FDA’s food additive authorization for BVO.” (Read more from “FDA Looks to Ban Controversial Food Additive: ‘No Longer Considered Safe'” HERE)

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service declared 21 species extinct on Monday, nearly doubling the number of species delisted under the Endangered Species Act due to their eradication.
The list, which contains 10 species of birds, two fish species, eight species of mussels, and one mammal, contains a majority of organisms that were originally listed under the ESA in the 1970s and ‘80s. According to the agency, most of the species were in low numbers and were likely already extinct at the time of listing.
“Federal protection came too late to reverse these species’ decline, and it’s a wake-up call on the importance of conserving imperiled species before it’s too late,” agency Director Martha Williams said in a statement. “As we commemorate 50 years of the Endangered Species Act this year, we are reminded of the Act’s purpose to be a safety net that stops the journey toward extinction. The ultimate goal is to recover these species, so they no longer need the Act’s protection.” (Read more from “21 Species Declared Extinct and Removed From Endangered List” HERE)
