#VPDNews: Vancouver Police (VPD) have arrested a man who allegedly pulled a knife on a senior downtown on Wednesday morning.
VPD officers were called shortly after 11 a.m. on September 9 following reports of an aggressive panhandler who had targeted a 76-year-old man in the 1600-block of Davie Street. The suspect approached the victim on a coffee shop patio, allegedly pulled out a knife, and grabbed his backpack before fleeing on foot.
A nearby witness immediately called 911 and remained on the line with dispatchers to provide real-time updates on the suspect's movements. Thanks to their actions, VPD patrol officers located and arrested the man a short time later without further incident. He was transported to Vancouver Jail.
Joshua Edward Adams, 36, has been charged with assault with a weapon and theft under $5,000.
“We’d like to thank the quick-thinking bystander whose detailed descriptions allowed officers to locate and quickly take the suspect into custody.” says Constable Darren Wong.
The internet makes Canada look like a disaster.
But Reality is:
One of the safest countries.
One of the strongest passports.
One of the highest quality of life rankings.
Perspective matters. 🇨🇦🙌
Jo Nagai was raising swallowtail butterflies at his home in Kobe, Japan, when he noticed something odd. The ones he had looked after as caterpillars seemed to recognize him. Wild butterflies fled. His didn't.
He was in second grade. He wrote a four-page letter to Dr. Martha Weiss, an entomologist at Georgetown University who had studied whether moths could retain memories through metamorphosis. He asked if she could help him design a version of her experiment for butterflies.
She said yes.
Using a muscle therapy device, Jo trained caterpillars to associate the scent of lavender with a mild vibration. When the caterpillars became butterflies, 70 per cent of them still avoided the lavender. Their brains had been completely rebuilt during metamorphosis. The memory survived anyway.
Then he bred them.
The offspring, which had never been trained, also avoided lavender. So did their grandchildren. Without ever experiencing the vibration, two generations of butterflies inherited an aversion to a scent their grandmother had been taught to fear.
Jo documented it all in a 33-page research paper and presented his findings at the International Congress of Entomology in Kobe in 2024. He was 10.
A second grader wrote a letter to a Georgetown professor, and together they found evidence that butterflies can pass memories down through generations.

@SamaHoole Thanks for your answer! I notice that through your business you put together training plans for people. Think we could work out a good time for the west coast of Canada, for him? We're on a fairly remote island so if you're available online, you're as accessible as anyone else.
@_MAGA_NEWS_ If you want to use the words "chilling escalation" you can use them to describe US govt threats against NATO countries and the global rules based order. PM Carney is just stating facts - these are our treaty commitments, and we're people of our word.
@mrsunshinebaby Breaking: PM Carney travels the 🌎 & brings back $70 billion investment, the largest foreign investment in 🇨🇦 history. Additionally, $1 Billion defense contract with 🇩🇪 & a Free Trade agreement with Indonesia. Meanwhile, PP travels & brings back a moist toilette & a peppermint.
