Whistle-blowing is an extreme dilemma. It’s either considered to be the ultimate act of justice or the ultimate breach. I would argue that many of us believe (but may not ever admit) that whistle-blowing is the ultimate breach. Statistics show that employers’ retaliation against whistleblowers runs rampant; in one study, a shocking 82% of whistleblowers experienced harassment after making allegations against a company and a full 60% were discharged from their jobs. In addition, whistleblowers may be blacklisted from future employers, face social ostracism from coworkers, and undergo stressful psychological strain. But given all of this, we need you to become a whistle-blower. I just hope when my time comes, I have the courage that past whistle-blowers have displayed. Just ask yourself; are you ready to be called a snitch?

I listen to their stories in the company of Anne Rimoin, an epidemiologist from UCLA. During her 16 years working in the Congo, Rimoin has shown that monkeypox is on the rise, helped discover a new virus, and worked to create the first truly accurate maps of the country, down to the most-isolated villages. The Congo is a second home for her. When Rimoin’s father died shortly before her wedding, Muyembe, the virologist who first encountered Ebola, flew to Los Angeles to walk her down the aisle.

The money raised from the carbon fee — technically it’s not a tax — would fund clean-energy investments and other causes (clean energy would get 70%). That’s a more progressive policy than the 2016 initiative that lowered other taxes.
More than one-third of American adults do not get enough sleep on a regular basis, reports the CDC. In fact, it’s now a public health epidemic, with research linking a lack of shut-eye to a number of problems. Our cognitive functions are impaired, so we are more likely to overreact, and our emotional intelligence is degraded, so we are more likely to be irritable. There’s even research connecting sleep deprivation to mental health problems and depression.
My wife Betty and I had been married 52 years when she died – for me her passing was a very sad loss. She had Alzheimer’s and I had nursed her at home for five years before she died. Suddenly I had no purpose.
