What is CTE? Why this brain disease is behind Manhattan shooting by Shane Tamura
Manhattan shooter Shane Tamura blamed football for his brain disease CTE. Shane Tamura, the crazed gunman who killed five people inside a Midtown skyscraper that housed many offices, mentioned CTE several times in his long manifesto, which can also be read as a suicide not,e as he ended his life after killing people in the office. CTE is Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, which is a degenerative brain disease caused by repeated head trauma, such as concussions or even sub-concussive hits (blows that don't cause symptoms but still jolt the brain). Football players, boxers, hockey players, military veterans are often diagnosed with this disease. Tamura claimed that he was suffering from CTE and blamed football for his condition. New York Post reported that in his note, he thanked a documentary on CTE brain injuries and listed the names of several prominent neuroscientists. 'Terry Long, football gave me CTE and it caused me to drink a gallon of antifreeze,' Tamura wrote. 'You can't go against the NFL, they'll squash you.' 'Please study brain for CTE. I'm sorry. The league knowingly concealed the dangers to our brains to maximize profits. They failed us," he wrote. In CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy), the brain deteriorates over time due to repeated hits to the head—even if those hits don't cause a full concussion. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Treatment That Might Help You Against Knee Pain Knee pain | search ads Find Now Undo CTE is rare and not completely understood by doctors, and there is no way to diagnose the disease in a living person – doctors can only confirm the disease in an autopsy after death. The disease has been linked to football, given the contact-heavy, physical nature of the sport. The note mentioned 'Fainaru brothers' — the two ESPN reporters who co-wrote the 'League of Denial' book. Elsewhere, the names of several doctors were featured on one page, including Dr. Ann McKee, the chief of neuropathology at BU Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, and Dr. Christopher Nowinski, the co-founder of Boston University's CTE Center. Tamura has been described as a mentally unstable person but there is no history of him professionally playing football. But it is believed that his apparent target was the NFL office, which was at the same building but he did not kill anyone from NFL and ended up killing Wesley LePatner, an executive of Blackstone. Tamura worked as a security guard at a Las Vegas casino and he did not report to duty Sunday. He drove through several states to reach New York City just hours before the mass shooting. Tamura's car was spotted passing through Colorado on July 26, Nebraska and Iowa on July 27, and Columbia, New Jersey, at 4:24 p.m. Monday. And then he drove into Manhattan. Cops found a rifle case with rounds, a loaded revolver, extra ammunition, magazines, a backpack and medication prescribed to him searching his car. He had a concealed firearms permit from Las Vegas with a 2027 expiration date. CTE and football A 2017 study by Boston University's CTE Center found that of the 111 NFL brains it examined, 110 had some level of CTE. In September 2024, a study by the Football Players Health Study at Harvard University revealed that out of a sample of 2,000 former NFL players, about a third believed they have CTE.

Archaeologists find a sweet surprise below an ice cream shop: A medieval knight
Image credits: X The coolest treat this summer was received by the archaeologists in Poland, who found a sweet surprise under the site of a former ice cream shop. Researchers with the company ArcheoScan unearthed a skeleton of a medieval knight under a street corner in Gdańsk, Poland, in early July. They were digging at a site which was a former ice cream parlor named Miś, when they discovered a 700-year-old Gotland limestone tombstone engraved with the image of a knight in armor holding a shield. As per a translated news release from Poland's national heritage agency, early estimates dated the stone back to the 13th and 14th centuries. But that wasn't all. Just two days later, the researchers uncovered the knight's entire skeleton about five inches below the tombstone. The knight was about 40 years old at the time of death and measured about 5 feet and 7 inches tall, said anthropologist Aleksandra Pudlo from the Archaeological Museum in a post on the official Gdańsk website. The knight's bones were found in what the researchers believe is a medieval cemetery with nearly 300 other graves. "I can initially say that he was a man of strong build, over 40 years old. His height was approximately 170 centimeters, maybe more. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Sulaymaniyah: Unsold Furniture Liquidation 2024 (Prices May Surprise You) Unsold Furniture | Search Ads Learn More Undo In the Middle Ages, this was the average height for men in Gdańsk; women were on average 10 centimeters shorter. We will know more about the skeleton from this grave after conducting a thorough examination," explained Pudlo. According to the evidence, only eight of the 300 graves were covered with tombstones, which means that those were of the individuals who held important roles in the society of that time. Image credits: X The archaeological site was previously an ice cream shop that opened in 1962 and has since moved to another location. Not only a knight's skeleton, but also other discoveries such as remains of small cottages from the 12th and 13th centuries and a wooden church from 1140, believed to be the oldest in Gdańsk, have also been found at the site. According to the evidence, only eight of the 300 graves were covered with tombstones, which means that those were of the individuals who held important roles in the society of that time. Researchers will make use of 3D software to examine the tombstone, and archaeologists may try to reconstruct the object. While further research is required to determine the origins of the knight and the site, Pudlo shared that if all goes well, they could have the information by next year. Gdańsk was captured by the Teutonic Knights in the autumn of 1308, and the origin of the knight will determine if he served the Pomeranian dukes of the Sobieslaw dynasty or the Order of the Hospital of the Blessed Virgin Mary of the German House in Jerusalem.

Trump acknowledges "real starvation" in Gaza, vows to increase food aid
US President Donald Trump has acknowledged the severe hunger crisis in Gaza after months of largely deflecting questions on the issue, stating that the United States would increase food aid to the war-hit enclave, The New York Times reported. During a 75-minute press session with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland on Monday, Trump pledged to "set up food centers" in Gaza, although he offered no specifics on how aid would reach the enclave that has faced more than 20 months of Israeli bombardment and aid restrictions.

"That's real starvation stuff, I see it, and you can't fake that," Trump said. "We have to get the kids fed." Live Events At least 56 Palestinians died from starvation this month alone, nearly half of the total deaths from hunger since the war began 22 months ago, the Gaza Health Ministry stated on Saturday. International agencies and medical experts have repeatedly warned that a famine is sweeping through the region due to Israel's tight restrictions on food and medicine. Earlier, Trump had drawn criticism for downplaying the humanitarian catastrophe, reportedly complaining that the United States had not received gratitude for the aid already provided. "Nobody said, 'Gee, thank you very much,'" Trump remarked on Sunday. "And it would be nice to have at least a thank you." During a meeting with von der Leyen, he called the crisis "not a U.S. problem, it's an international problem," while reiterating frustrations over a lack of recognition for America's contributions. The New York Times noted that his administration recently approved $30 million in funding for an Israeli-backed aid system in Gaza run mostly by American contractors. However, Trump's remarks on Monday marked a notable departure from his recent stance, as he criticised the existing distribution mechanisms and called for more accessible aid delivery. "We're going to set up food centers and where people can walk in and no boundaries. We're not going to have fences," he said. "They see the food. It's all there, but nobody's at it because they have fences set up that nobody can even get it. It's crazy what's going on over there." He added that Britain would support the United States in the new aid push. Trump also appeared to distance himself from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent claims that there was no starvation in Gaza. "I don't particularly agree with that, Trump said, adding, "The children look very hungry." Despite Trump's assertion that "no other nation gave money," The New York Times reported that the European Union had spent approximately $605 million on Gaza aid since 2023, according to the European Commission. The hunger crisis in Gaza has become one of the worst humanitarian emergencies in recent memory, with over two million Palestinians living amid widespread destruction and shortages of essential supplies. Trump's remarks have raised questions about whether his "America First" foreign policy can adapt to a crisis that demands multilateral humanitarian leadership, the New York Times noted.
