'I'm horrified by my cousin's baby name choice - she needs to be stopped'
A woman has asked people for advice on whether or not it's acceptable to tell her cousin that her chosen baby name is 'absolutely atrocious' before it's too late A woman has sought advice after her efforts to dissuade her cousin from choosing an 'atrocious' baby name were in vain. In a bid to convince her cousin to rethink the unconventional spelling of her soon-to-be-born daughter's name, she's turned to Reddit for help. She shared her dilemma on the Tragedeigh forum, a space dedicated to discussing names that are "deliberately misspelled or completely made up to appear more unique than it actually is." Her cousin is set on the name Phoebe but wants to add a 'unique' spin by spelling it Feabe. She explained: "I've tried to convince her that people won't understand how to say it, and the traditional spelling looks a lot prettier, but she has her mind set. "She says nobody will read it differently, and uses the names Lia and Lea as examples. I just don't think it's the same thing. But tell me, is it a tragedeigh like I think it is? Will the kid get bullied?", she asked. With the baby's arrival imminent, the worried woman is frantically trying to persuade her cousin to stick with the original spelling, fearing the child's future could be affected. She added: "I'm struggling here on trying to find ways to convince her to change it. I texted her about the Phineas and Ferb reference the kid is going to get, and she just said that she loved the show as a kid. "My cousin and I are super close, like sisters, so any suggestions? It also doesn't help that her middle name will be spelt Feiey, like Fae for Fairy. So Feabe Feiey." One person replied to her post: "Wouldn't Fea be a feminine form of feo, Spanish for ugly? Even if not, any chance you can convince your cousin of that?". Another chimed in with their take: "I would pronounce Feabe as Feeb. Maybe Fabe as a distant second guess." A third cautioned: "Any elementary teacher will tell you that Phoebe spelled as Feabe is going to get teased as Flea be and when she's older? Even worse, Fee is for sale to the highest bidder. Kids are Cruel. Girls are crueler." Someone else weighed in: "It is more than a tragedy. The poor kid will be called Feeble or Febreeze, and even well-intentioned people will say it incorrectly. "It also entirely hides its Greek meaning of 'bright' or 'shining' (as in Phoebus Apollo), and it disconnects it from any of the characters in mythology, or the woman in the Bible, who have the name Phoebe."

'It's a gen Z thing': Why young people are obsessed with digital cameras
It is a Friday night in Perth, and Lia and her friends are out at a bar. The group is setting up to take photos, but with a twist: instead of using their phones, one of the friends pulls out a small point-and-shoot digital camera. It is the kind of compact camera that first came about in the early 2000s, and which many assumed had died out with the invention of the phone camera and smartphone. That is, until a resurgence in interest in the aesthetics and pop culture of the late 1990s and early 2000s. "When you see a photo on Instagram, you can definitely tell if it's a digital camera," Lia told triple j Hack. "It's a lot sharper, with a really strong flash, and even without the flash it is a different kind of vibe. Lia, who is in her mid 20s and lives in Perth, sells second-hand digital cameras online. She says people are always messaging her trying to get their hands on the old school tech. "I think, especially for gen Zs, they get more motivated when they have a new toy to play with compared to your phone — it's definitely a different experience." Digital cameras have been trending on social media sites like TikTok and Instagram over the past year or so, with countless videos from young influencers showing off the best in old tech. It has resulted in young people seeking out these older models, according to Dylan Boxwell, who works at an Australia-wide camera franchise and who says his store has about 80 backorders of a specific camera which is popular online. "People are trying to get that look, back from when they were kids," Dylan told Hack. "They want that nostalgic aspect, they want something easy to carry around in their pocket — it looks a lot better than a phone sometimes." Dylan, who is also a freelance photographer and cinematographer, thinks digital cameras are also a way for people to look back to a time which was a bit simpler. "I kind of like the whole thing of, 'let's use media that we had in the past … let's slow it down, let's go back to what we all know,'" he said. "Everyone has a nostalgic hit when you see a VHS tape … using that sort of media just brings people in, and brings people together." University of Tasmania senior media lecturer Kathleen Williams said it was not surprising that younger Australians were gravitating towards digital cameras. "I think the way it looks makes it look more like a memory, because it's also pulling on the shared media past that we have." Dr Williams said that cultural trends typically move in 20-year cycles. She said this latest move towards Y2K fashion and photography was a way for younger people to be a part of a time and culture they have seen on the screen, even if they were too young to appreciate it at the time. "You have these cultural memories that belong to something bigger than you, and things you've engaged with your entire life," Dr Williams said. Lia, who loves her digital cameras so much she packed three in her luggage for a recent European holiday, agrees. "It's the same reason as why Y2K is a thing now," Lia said. "After a while people just look back and find something fun from the past, and they start using that as the new trend."

Skypoint Launches Lia and Scribe: AI-Powered Agents Redefining Clinical Workflow Efficiency and Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Data Capture
PORTLAND, Ore., June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Skypoint, a leading provider of HITRUST r2-certified AI platform for healthcare, today announced the launch of two breakthrough AI agents—Skypoint Lia and Skypoint Scribe—designed to dramatically improve workflow efficiency, capturing social determinants of health data (SDOH), and clinical decision-making across care environments. Healthcare systems are increasingly overwhelmed by fragmented electronic health records (EHRs), redundant documentation, and mounting administrative demands. Skypoint's new agents address these challenges head-on, empowering clinicians to spend less time navigating systems and more time with patients. Skypoint Lia is a browser-based, EHR-agnostic AI agent that provides real-time, unified patient insights directly at the point of care. Working seamlessly across platforms like Epic, Cerner, MEDITECH, and PointClickCare, Lia overlays the EHR to surface demographics, payer information, care gaps, SDOH, and more—without any need for integration or disruption to existing systems. "Lia puts the full patient picture in front of clinicians in seconds," said Kishore Bhattacharjee, CTO at Skypoint. "It drives faster decisions, reduces missed opportunities, and improves documentation accuracy—all while ensuring enterprise-grade security." Skypoint Scribe complements Lia by tackling one of the biggest pain points in clinical settings: documentation and SDOH data capture. Scribe is a browser extension-based AI agent that captures and transcribes patient interviews in real time. From hospitals and skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) to home care and specialty clinics, Scribe eliminates duplicate entry by extracting key clinical details, such as medications, goals, and care directives, and auto-populating structured fields. Its AI capabilities streamline workflows, enhance compliance, and centralize data into a unified patient record stored securely in Skypoint's Data Lakehouse, using Data Lakebase for low-latency data management. "Clinical teams spend too much time duplicating data across systems," said Rob MacNaughton, President and COO of Skypoint. "Scribe transforms this experience by letting providers document while they care, not after the fact." Both Lia and Scribe are fully HIPAA-compliant, HITRUST r2-certified, and designed for rapid deployment, typically within minutes. Together, they represent a significant step forward in Skypoint's mission to reduce administrative burden and improve patient outcomes through intelligent automation.

Who Is Lia Anthony? Red Sox Top Prospect Roman Anthony's Smoking Hot Sister Steals the Shows During Tampa Bay Match
Baseball's No.1 prospect Roman Anthony celebrated his first-ever hit for the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday. However, it was his sister in the crowd who grabbed more eyeballs. Anthony was finally called up to the big leagues this week and made a strong impression in Boston's 3-1 win over Tampa Bay, doubling in two runs for his team at Fenway Park. While the game aired live on NESN, many Red Sox fans appeared to be just as curious about Anthony's family—especially his sister—as they were about seeing their rising star perform. In the top of the second inning, the camera zoomed in on Anthony's 22-year-old sister, Lia Anthony. Smoking Hot Sister Lia was sitting in the crowd when the camera panned at her and, as expected, social media quickly lit up with excitement. "I'd like to be the first to welcome Roman Anthony's sister to Boston!" one wrote on X, and others quickly followed. "Lord have mercy," another obsessed fan added, while a third wrote: "What's her @? Asking for a friend..." Lia was at the game alongside her father Chris, mother Lori, and brother Anthony Anthony. The family even took a photo with iconic Red Sox star David Ortiz. Lia, who is 22 years old, recently completed her degree in Human Development and Family Sciences from Florida State University. As of Tuesday night, she had a little over 5,000 Instagram followers—a number likely to rise significantly after her unexpected spotlight on national television. Her recent posts highlight several holidays, including a getaway to Aruba with friends. Stealing the Limelight At the end of April, Lia took a trip to Nashville shortly after celebrating her graduation from Florida State University. Reflecting on her college years, she wrote, "Thank you Florida State for the best four years of my life." Meanwhile, her brother Roman is just beginning what could be a remarkable journey in Major League Baseball. Touted as the top prospect in the sport, fans had been eagerly waiting for him to move up from Triple-A. He finally got the call on Monday and made his MLB debut that same day. Although he didn't record a hit in his first game, he delivered a double on Tuesday—his first big-league hit. Roman is expected to return to center field for the final game in the series against the Rays.
