An inspector from the Dutch education ministry arrived at Johan van Hulst’s teacher training institute in Amsterdam on the morning of June 19, 1943. He noticed youngsters and, with SS soldiers standing nearby, asked, “Are those Jewish children?”
“You don’t really expect me to answer that, do you?” Dr. van Hulst replied.
The garden of Dr. van Hulst’s Reformed Teachers’ Training College bordered the garden of a Jewish nursery. Under Dr. van Hulst’s supervision, hundreds of Jewish infants and children had been passed across the hedge and hidden in his school. As Dr. van Hulst recalled, the inspector shook his hand and said, quietly, “In God’s name, be careful.”

Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg’s testimony before a joint Senate panel Tuesday dragged on for hours, so if you missed much of it, we won’t blame you. But if you’re trying to catch up on the key points, we’ve drawn out a few important moments from the high-profile hearing. Here they are.
‘We’re responsible for the content’
Everyone knew that Zuckerberg would be entering the hearing with an apologetic tone; in his prepared remarks, Zuckerberg conceded that the Cambridge Analytica fiasco was “my mistake, and I’m sorry.” But Zuckerberg also went further, acknowledging for the first time that his platform is ultimately responsible for the content that appears there. That’s significant for a company that has historically presented itself as a neutral technology.
In clarifying his remarks later on, Zuckerberg highlighted how that view connects to the impression shared by some that Facebook should be considered a media company or a utility.

She could no longer move without assistance and had fallen victim to the debilitating and frightening psychosis that haunts many people with Parkinson’s disease.

Every sport has its heroes and villains, and the geneses for those reputations are as varied as the characters who play the part. At some point, the roles become inseparable from the person performing, and we forget why we loved or loathed the guy in the first place.
So here was Patrick Reed, barrel-chested and more, lumbering up the 18th fairway Sunday evening at Augusta National Golf Club. Through a typically enthralling final round at the Masters, Reed had heard cheers for his introduction dwarfed by those of his playing partner, Rory McIlroy. He had embraced the explosions from around the golf course, roars for Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler and Jon Rahm.
“That’s another thing,” Reed said, “that played into my hand.”

Seven top officials of the website Backpage.com, long accused of facilitating child sex trafficking, have been arrested after a grand jury in Phoenix issued a 93-count indictment alleging conspiracy, facilitating prostitution and money laundering.
The arrests come after the government seized all of Backpage’s websites around the world on Friday.
The indictment was unsealed Monday after all defendants made their first appearances before a magistrate in Phoenix. Among those charged are the site’s founders, Michael Lacey and James Larkin. Carl Ferrer, the site’s current owner, was not charged. But the indictment claims the site continued to be financed by Lacey, Larkin and two other co-owners who retained operational control of Backpage.

Her unwavering love prompts the FOX5 Surprise Squad and the community to put into motion the largest chain of surprises ever!
Audrey had been feeling sick for some time and her doctor suggested she stay overnight at the hospital to get some tests done. Not knowing what to do with her three children while she was away, she asked her neighbor, Tisha, if she would be willing to take the kids for the night.
Even though the two women didn’t know each other very well, Tisha agreed to take the kids. But neither one of these moms could have ever imagined what would happen next…
When the test results came back they were devastating. Audrey was diagnosed with stage two oesophageal and stomach cancer, and doctors told her the cancer was terminal.
Knowing her time was running out, Audrey wanted to make sure that, whatever else happened, her kids would be taken care of. She asked Tisha and her husband Kevin if they would be willing to take in her children, and amazingly – even though they already have five kids of their own – they said yes.

(The Borowitz Report)—Hoping to resolve the seemingly intractable conflict over immigration, Mexico surprised the world on Thursday by agreeing to pay for Donald J. Trump’s psychiatric care.
Speaking to reporters, the Mexican President, Enrique Peña Nieto, said that he had authorized funding for the psychiatry and proclaimed, “Work on Donald Trump could begin tomorrow.”
Peña Nieto displayed several photographs showing prototypes of therapists, including a bearded Freudian analyst who he said came highly recommended.
While some Mexican taxpayers argued that a full course of psychiatric treatment could prove more costly than a border wall, Peña Nieto warned against skimping on such a necessary expense.

Should You Take A Vitamin Every Day?
You might be surprised at the answer.
As a kid, popping a single chewy, sugary multivitamin alongside breakfast was easy. But as an adult, navigating the world of vitamin supplements is more complicated. The sheer number of options available at the store, combined with confusing labels and a lack of nutrition knowledge, can turn the simple task of bettering your health into a seemingly impossible feat.
That’s why we chatted with two experts to help clear up the vitamin confusion. Read on to learn what vitamins are, why they’re important and what role they play in a healthy diet.

It’s fast becoming the go-to drug for addicts in search of a stronger high — and it is not even an opioid.
Gabapentin, a purportedly nonaddictive painkiller primarily used to treat shingles and control seizures, has landed on the radar of beleaguered health officials and law enforcement already battling the deadly opioid epidemic that has ripped through the Rust Belt and claimed thousands of lives across the country.
Kentucky last year became the first state to classify gabapentin as a controlled substance after the drug showed up in a third of the state’s fatal overdoses in 2016, as The Louisville Courier Journal first reported.
And police in Ohio have reported a dramatic rise in the abuse of gabapentin, better known by brand names like Neurontin, Gralise or Horizant. There have already been reports of 300 milligram pills being sold on the street for as little as 75 cents apiece in the college town of Athens, Ohio.

Banker Stephen Lanzo said he used Johnson & Johnson products like Shower to Shower and Baby Powder for more than 30 years, and he claimed that inhaling the powder caused his mesothelioma, an aggressive and deadly cancer that impacts the lining of the lungs.
.
Deposits of talc, one of the Earth’s softest minerals, are often located near deposits of the minerals that constitute asbestos, and studies have shown the risk of cross-contamination during mining. Johnson & Johnson said its talc products do not contain asbestos, which, it noted, has been a legal requirement since the 1970s.
