@TheMDTA So they bottle necked us down to one lane taking 30 min to go 1 mile, and 3 green arrows all lanes open on the bridge. … 🤷‍♀️

@TheMDTA PTL need to make my flight!

[Jennie Schmidt MS RD @FarmGirlJen]

@TheMDTA Also why is there east bound traffic flowing if the lanes are closed?

[Jennie Schmidt MS RD @FarmGirlJen]

@TheMDTA Is there anyway the text message blast that we get for weather can be done for bridge closures? That way those of us trying to make a flight know ahead of time to go around and not across the Bay

BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed.

The debate over ultra-processed foods is "absolutely" overblown and "ridiculous," epidemiologist Gideon Meyerowitz-Katz said.

"Most of what we measure when we talk about ultra-processed food is not the processing steps. It's not the number of steps it takes to go from field to plate," he told PBS News' @GeoffRBennett. "Instead, we measure sort of these vague concepts of how many ingredients a food has, how many things that you don't keep in your kitchen. But that's not what processing is."

"What we call ultra-processed foods today are mostly what my mum would refer to as 'junk food' in the ’90s," he later added.

Meyerowitz-Katz, creator of the "Health Nerd" blog, spoke to Geoff Bennett for PBS News' podcast, "Settle In." https://t.co/VQPfjhOgBr

This is the full 60 Minutes segment on CECOT Bari Weiss and CBS News didn't want you to see.

Have you heard that U.S. crop yields are declining and our food supply is in danger from climate change? Good news: yields for staple crops like corn, wheat, soybeans, and potatoes are still increasing and show no signs of slowing down.

BESSENT: I run a soybean farm

BRENNAN: You don't own one. You invest in it

BESSENT: People in my family go out and work on it

@KCKlatt Love UT! My daughter graduated from there (not nutrition). But she works at @CorpImmLawFirm if you need help with work papers 😀

3/ The Consequences

Lysenko’s policies outlawed genetics. Scientists who opposed him were jailed or executed. Agriculture collapsed, contributing to famine. Millions starved.

Bots aren’t just noise.
They’re the engine of disinformation.

Analysis of 1.269M accounts on X.
Result? 64% look like bots.

That means most of what you see in your feed…
…isn’t real people talking.

So how do bots push disinformation?🧵1/

Why are wine grapes grown in certain regions? Climate, geography and soil each play a part and affect the flavor. But don't forget about demand! Thanks to strong local wine consumption and favorable growing conditions, wine grapes are a viable crop for Maryland farmers like Jennie Schmidt. #WomenFarmers #FarmFacts #WineDYK @FarmGirlJen

[CommonGround @CommonGroundNow]

Plants can't just "grow" - they have to fight for it. Sunlight, water, nutrients - pests want them, too. Meet the wine grape farmer AND dietitian who explains why protecting her vines is the only way to help them turn sunshine into a glass of wine worth drinking. 🍷☀️ #WomenFarmers #FarmFacts #WineDYK

@ToorUMD Congrats!

Drone spraying the vineyard for downy mildew. Think it does a good job with a canopy spray. Not convinced it would get good coverage on the fruit zone.
