In early 1900s, many physicians believed premature babies were weak and not worth saving. But a sideshow entertainer named Martin Couney thought otherwise. Using incubators that he called child hatcheries, Couney displayed premature babies at his Cone.

At a time when many hospitals lacked both the equipment and the will to treat premature babies, Couney operated “infant incubator exhibits” at venues like Coney Island and the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Visitors paid admission, and the proceeds funded round-the-clock medical care, trained nurses, sterilized equipment, and temperature-controlled incubators based on European designs.

Medical consensus in the early 20th century often viewed premature infants as unlikely to survive. Couney challenged that assumption. Over several decades, his exhibits reportedly cared for thousands of infants, with survival rates far exceeding typical hospital outcomes of the era.

His work, while unconventional, helped normalize neonatal care and demonstrated the effectiveness of incubators long before hospitals widely adopted them.

By 1940s, advances in neonatal medicine, many validated by outcomes from Couney’s programs, led hospitals to establish dedicated premature infant units, effectively ending the need for public incubator exhibits.

Research shows that regularly practicing gratitude can lead to measurable changes in the brain. This effect is driven by neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to reorganize itself based on repeated thoughts and behaviors. When people intentionally focus on appreciation, neural pathways involved in emotional control and coping become stronger.

Grateful thinking also stimulates the release of dopamine and serotonin, chemicals linked to pleasure and motivation, while helping reduce cortisol, the hormone associated with stress. Brain regions such as the prefrontal cortex and hypothalamus become more active, supporting improved mood regulation and overall mental health.

Over time, gratitude does more than provide short-term emotional relief. It gradually shifts the brain away from its natural bias toward threat detection and toward noticing positive experiences instead. Simple habits like writing down what you’re thankful for or expressing appreciation aloud reinforce these patterns, making optimistic thinking more automatic.

Studies indicate that this repeated practice builds lasting neural connections, promoting emotional balance, resilience, and well-being. In essence, regularly acknowledging what’s going well can retrain the brain showing that small daily moments of gratitude can produce meaningful, long-term psychological benefits.

MARCH DECLARATION.. we are starting out STRONG!!

Say this out loud:
“I guard my mind like I guard my destiny.
Only truth gets a seat at my table.
Every voice that contradicts God is dismissed.
I think with power.
I think with peace.
I think with purpose.
My mind is mature. My spirit is steady.
And I will not host what God has already defeated.”

Fear…. your seat is revoked.
Offense…. your seat is revoked.
Comparison….your seat is revoked.
Shame…. your seat is revoked.
Only faith gets a vote in this season.

John Cena says he called Triple H to tell him he didn’t want a tribute show for his retirement, and pitched to have NXT talent featured vs Main Roster stars on his retirement show:

“I called Triple H and I said ‘I have an idea, you’ll know how to do this because I don’t know how to write Television. But I think if we do a tribute show. 1 of 2 things are gonna happen. It’s either gonna be too much or too little. Which means it’s not gonna be good.

Why don’t we take SNME, everyone knows it’s John Cena’s last match. The video packages you wanna trickle in, no problem. Then we go to the match, have the match, that’s the night.

But beforehand, on a night I know people are gonna be tuning in, sold out, and the last piece of relevant energy I can get an audience member to tune in to. Show the future of your business, have top name WWE Superstars, CM Punk, Charlotte Flair, you put it together however you want, have them have non-canon exhibition matches with the future of the business.

Bring kids up from NXT, get em in a building with real noise. Real energy. Let em get under the bright lights. Maybe, just maybe like ‘I wanna be here’. And they get to wrestle people with experience, wisdom and in non-canon, exhibition matches with nothing on the line. It’s a chance to hear the music of your favourite Superstars against somebody you have no idea.

And he said that a great idea. They’re gonna do it. I have no clue what the plan is, but I know thats how I wanna go out”

Triple H has praised the future of WWE, noting that the 'field is deep' underneath the top stars of the company:

"The thing about it this year is, and I think you see it in the WrestleMania commercials, the field is wide open between a Brock Lesnar, between Roman, Punk, Cody, Seth is on the shelf right now but he factors into that.

"That's not even counting the new generations of the Bron Breakkers, the Bronson Reeds, the younger guys that are up and coming.

"When people talk about the business now, and they talk about where our talent are at, the top players are all in top positions and they're a bit older but the thickness and the depth of what is underneath them is what I'm most excited about because the field is deep, this business is going to be in good shape for a long time."

AJ Lee says she was genuinely "stunned" by the crowd chanting "therapy" during her WWE return promo, revealing that several fans have told her that they've sought therapy of their own since then:

"That was a genuine reaction of like being stunned. I heard one person start to chant it and then a few people around him started chanting “therapy”. And I thought it was so funny.

"...I heard it and I was like I have to respond to this, three guys were chanting therapy and then everyone started to do it and my mind exploded.

"I think if you have a judgmental idea of what you think wrestling crowds could be, you don’t think that they’re in touch with their emotions or open-minded and empathetic like that.

"It was just like my worlds came together and now I did a signing and people had ‘Therapy is cool’ merch, they made themselves. And I’ve had so many people from that moment say they decided to get therapy themselves because of that segment. It’s like what did we do you guys? This is the coolest thing in the world to combine these two things that mean everything to me. But I hope those fans know that they are the reason I came back."

@JoelOsteen Thank you. This reminder is much needed at the moment.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

God will put you in situations, on purpose, where the odds are against you, so He can show out in your life. It’s not there to stop you; it’s a setup for God to make you an example of His goodness. He will never let you get into a problem that He can’t bring you out of.

Brain Scans Reveal How Bullying Sparks Instant Alarm and Distress

Researchers studying the impact of bullying found that it instantly triggers distress pathways in the brain.

When tweens and adults viewed bullying scenarios, their emotional and social brain networks became highly active, alongside the body’s threat-response systems.

Eye-tracking confirmed heightened attention and emotional arousal.

People with personal histories of being bullied showed even stronger reactions.

These findings highlight how bullying primes the brain for stress and can increase vulnerability to mental and physical health problems over time.
