The talk about these drugs has become very political. People who do not want puberty blockers used for young people think it is better to let the young person's body go through puberty, even though that will permanently change their body. Some of them have religious reasons. They may believe that people should not interfere with how a human body was made because they believe it was made by God. These people also say the child might just be imagining the problem or might change how they feel about their gender identity when they are older. People who oppose transgender rights or who hate or are afraid of transgender people are often called transphobic. People who do not want puberty blockers used for transgender youth are often classified as social conservatives if they have many opinions that are not modern.

Connected fashion
Connected Fashion is a philosophy and business model that uses technology to recreate brand images and reinvent consumer experiences, as well as between the virtual and physical world.
The goal of Connected Fashion is to create products, by making a digital twin of the physical object. This is very similar to Digital Fashion and includes many features of this trend.
The growth of blockchain technology and NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) has played a big part in creating Connected Fashion.
The internet made shopping very easy, and social media apps led to a big increase in the number of influencers. But, the way customers and brands interacted was still mostly one-sided. Customers didn't have a real way to be a part of their favorite brands.
NFT technology lets people create and own unique tokens. In this case, these tokens can represent items that people have bought. They can be used in many ways, like getting into exclusive groups, voting and making decisions, and even keeping track of an item's history. Plus, since NFTs can show who owns something, they can be used to prove that a high-end item is real and not fake. This gives the owner a digital proof that they own the real item.
As technology has gotten better and more things are done online, the idea of having an online identity or an online brand has become more important. Connected Fashion also lets customers prove that they own certain items online and include these items in their online identity and virtual worlds.
Connected Fashion can share more details about where an item comes from and how it was made. The item could have a QR code or something similar that contains information about it. This is very important for ethical or slow fashion.
High-end fashion often has problems with fakes and copies. Connected Fashion can be used as proof of ownership and to show that an item is real and not fake. This is really helpful for influencers and fashion bloggers who want to prove that they own real items. It's also useful for markets where people buy used items and want to know if they are real.
Connected Fashion helps solve the problem of people feeling a disconnect between their real-world fashion and branding and their online identity.
Connected Fashion can also give owners access to special experiences. The NFT of the item can work like a passport, giving the owner access to exclusive events.
Brands and members of the community can put proposals up for a vote. This doesn't just give customers a voice, but it also lets brands get immediate and provable feedback from their community.
Gucci was the first luxury clothing brand to launch an NFT series with the NFT Aria collection which launched at Christie's in June 2022 for $25,000 to commemorate its 100th anniversary. Proceeds from the sale were donated to UNICEF USA.
Balmain used NFTs during the Paris Fashion Week F/W 2022 for gated membership experiences, giving holders access to exclusive events and perks.
Connected Fashion began to develop in 2023, with the blockchain company ChromaWay pioneering the term and acquiring clothing brand BLK DNM.
In March 2023, Balmain has released a limited edition NFT sneaker based on its Unicorn shoe line, each with a pair of matching limited edition sneakers from the real world.
Information design is about presenting information in a way that is easy to understand and efficient. It focuses on effective communication rather than just making things look attractive. It is closely related to graphic design and data visualization and is often taught in design courses.
The term "information design" emerged in the 1970s and gained recognition through publications and organizations dedicated to the field. It involves organizing and structuring information for specific audiences. It can be applied on different scales, from organizing large manuals to designing individual pages. Information design also overlaps with information architecture, which focuses on organizing and structuring information systems.
Early examples of information design include William Playfair's charts on trade, John Snow's maps of a cholera outbreak, and Charles Joseph Minard's diagram of Napoleon's campaign. These examples effectively conveyed information visually and are considered important milestones in the field.
In simple terms, information design helps us present information in a clear and organized way so that it is easy to understand. It involves organizing content, choosing the right visuals, and creating a structure that makes sense to the intended audience. Information design has a long history and has played a significant role in visualizing data and telling stories effectively.

Malabar gliding frog
The Malabar flying frog, Malabar gliding frog, or flying frog ("Rhacophorus malabaricus") is a frog. It lives in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Phillippines.
Scientists sometimes wonder if a frog is "R. malabaricus" or another species, "R. pseudomalabaricus". They say one good way to tell these two frogs apart is to look at where the frog lives: "R. pseudomalabaricus" lives high than 955 meters above sea level. If the frog is close to sea level, it is probably "R. malabaricus", and if it is high up in the hills, it is probably "R. pseudomalabaricus".

Co-amoxiclav is an antibiotic that is also known as Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. It is used to treat bacterial infections such as pneumonia, animal bites, urinary tract infections. The antibiotic is also used in veterinary practices and is commonly given to farm animals and pets against similar infections. It's brand name in the UK is Augmentin and is only available on prescription.
Because the antibiotic is used widely amongst humans and animals, bacterial resistance to this antibiotic is growing.

It was launched as Augmentin in the UK in 1981 and it is a combination of clavulanic acid and Amoxicillin. It is now on the World Health Organisation's list of Essential Medicines meaning it is very important in modern medicine.

Golden Eighties
The Mercedes-Benz A-Class is a small luxury car made by the luxury car brand Mercedes-Benz.
It is the brand's smallest car, below the B-Class. Since 2018, there has been a sedan option, made for small sedan buyers. The 1st gen is codenamed W168, and started in 1997 the 2nd gen, codenamed W169, started in 2004, the 3rd gen, codenamed W176, started in 2012, and the 4th gen, codenamed W177, with a sedan codenamed V177, started in 2018.
In 1994, Mercedes had confirmed a new small car would be made, was first seen in 1996, and was released in 1997 at a motor show in Frankfurt, Germany. Although it is a small subcompact car, it is large and practical inside, like a mid-size car. It was designed by Steve Mattin, who also designed the ML-Class, and the GL-Class. It is unusual for Mercedes to make a front-wheel drive hatchback with a short, but tall body. Its code name is W168.

The new car has grown 400 mm (0.4 m) longer. It has new headlights, taillights, body style, refreshed interior, cooler rear lights and front lights, now making it closer to the small luxury car segment and daytime running lights.
The new A-Class is more expressive than the previous models, directly competes with the Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series, as they are all German luxury small family cars.
In 2015, the A-Class had gotten a change for 2016, adding bolder, restyled headllights, and better technology.
The new A-Class is the fourth generation of the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, the successor of the W176. Its codename is W177, and features multiple design cues from the previous A-Class.

Hazing
Hazing (American English), initiation, beasting (British English), bastardisation (Australian English), or ragging (South Asian English) means making new people in a group do dangerous, stupid, or unpleasant things (activities.) These are things that humiliate, embarrass, degrade, or endanger someone even if the person agrees to do them. Hazing is a type of bullying. Sex acts, drinking too much alcohol or eating too much food are often part of hazing. An illegal sex act that sometimes happens is that several or many young men (one after another) rape (have sex with someone without the person's agreement or consent.) Usually the person raped is a woman who is drunk, drugged, or being held down. Sometimes gross or disgusting things are done to new people in the group. An example is holding the new person's head in a garbage can or giving the person a swirly. For gangs, committing a murder is sometimes a thing new members are made to do. For gangs, it is not called hazing. It is called an initiation rite.
Hazing happens in many different types of social groups, including schools, colleges, universities, sports teams, cliques (groups of students who others consider popular or special), military units, prisons, gangs, fraternities and sororities, and workplaces. The types of workplaces where hazing is common are usually jobs like construction or factory jobs more than office jobs, although "team building" activities at offices can be very close to hazing.
Hazing is often against rules, but teachers or bosses ignore it ("look the other way") and say they did not see it happen.
Sometimes people die because of hazing. For example, a student might drink too much alcohol and fall off a roof.
Required physical training such as being forced to run a long distance or do a lot of push-ups in an army is not called hazing.

Cephalosporins are a type of group of antibiotics, which come from a fungus of the genus Acremonium. Since their discovery, they have been frequently used in medicine as an effective treatment for a wide range of bacterial infections.
Cephalosporins were first developed from a fungus, "Cephalosporin acremonium", found in 1945.
Giuseppe Brotzu, a pharmacologist working in Cagliari, Italy, found the fungus while trying to make a map of places affected by the disease typhoid fever. This fungus appeared in sewage water from locations where fewer people were becoming ill from the disease.
Scientists at the University of Oxford were able to extract molecules from the fungus, to research and develop the first generation of these antibiotics during the late 1940s and the 1950s. These first became commercially available in 1964.
The first cephalosporins antibiotics were produced from a molecule called 'cephalosporin C', obtained from the "Cephalosporin acremonium" fungus. The molecule consists of two rings, each with a chain.
Second-generation cephalosporins were developed from first-generation cephalosporins, because of a need for more effective treatments against the increasing number of bacteria developing resistance to other antibiotics.
Third-generation cephalosporins are improved versions of the second-generation, as they are broad-spectrum antibiotics. Broad-spectrum antibiotics can be used against bacteria with or without protective membranes.
Cephalosporins work by attaching themselves to specific enzymes after the bacteria divide and duplicate. These enzymes are known as 'penicillin binding proteins' and are responsible for repairing the cell wall of bacteria. This leaves a gap in the bacterial cell wall, and results in the osmotic pressure inside a bacterium to build up. Bacteria can no longer survive if the osmotic pressure becomes too high.
Cephalosporins are an effective treatment against bacteria which are Gram-positive. Some examples of Gram-positive bacterial infections are meningitis and pneumonia. Third-generation cephalosporins play an important role in treating such illnesses.
From the 1960s to the 1990s, cephalosporins played a particularly significant role in US hospitals. They were used to treat patients affected by bacteria infections after operations, and this rate of infection was cut down by over 50%.
