QUOTES
Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man and woman, it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow.
Edward Sandford Martin, essayist, founder o fhte "Harvard Lampoon"
So once in every year we throng, Upon a day apart, To praise the Lord with feast and song, in thankfulness of heart.
Arthur Guiterman in "The First Thanksgiving"
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 35th President of the United States
To give thanks in solitude is enough. Thanksgiving has wings and goes where it must go. Your prayer knows much more about it than you do.
Victor Hugo, French poet, novelist
He who thanks but with the lips Thanks but in part. The full, the true Thanksgiving comes from the heart.
J.A. Shedd, second president of Marshall Field & Co.
For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends, We are thankful for everything Thy goodness sends.
Ralph Waldo Emerson American essayist and poet
Thou hast given so much to me, Give one thing more, a grateful heart; Not thankful when it pleases me, As if Thy blessings had spare days, But such a heart whose pulse may be Thy praise.
George Herbert, English poet, priest
On Thanksgiving Day, all over America, families sit down to dinner at the same moment -- halftime.

The Lighter Side Good Advice
A lady pulled into a crowded parking lot and rolled down the car windows to make sure her golden retriever had fresh air. The dog was stretched out on the back seat, and she wanted to make sure the dog stayed there.
She walked backward toward the store, pointing her finger at the dog and saying:
Now you stay .....
Do you hear me?... Stay!... Stay!"
The driver of a nearby car piped up:
"Why don't you just put it in park?'
Got Bugs?
A man who works for a pest control company confirms each appointment by phone the night before his service call.
One night, a man answered the confirmation call. The pest control man said, "Hi, this is A to Z Pest Control. Your wife phoned us."
There was a long silence, and then the customer yelled to his wife: "Honey, it's for you ... someone wants to talk to you about your relatives."
Stop Sign
A woman drove a mini-van filled with a dozen screaming kids through the mall parking lot, looking for a space. Obviously frazzled, she coasted through a stop sign.
"Hey, lady, have you forgotten how to stop?" yelled an irate man.
She rolled down her window and yelled back, "What makes you think these are all mine?"

November is Diabetes Awareness Month What to know about GLP-1s
Unless you've been living off the grid, you've probably heard about drugs like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy, and perhaps even considered asking your doctor about them. They're all part of a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists, or just GLP-1s.
According to Indiana University Health, the drugs were originally approved to help lower blood sugar, but proved exceptionally effective to help patients lose weight without the potentially risky side effects associated with drugs like phentermine. Drugmakers raced to develop newer versions that would be marketed expressly for weight loss and the first such drug, Wegovy, received approval in 2021. Since then, more GLP-1s have been approved and researchers have found that the drugs may also be useful for the prevention and treatment of heart disease -- something diabetes patients are twice as likely to develop compared to people without diabetes.
And the race to develop newer and better GLP-1 drugs hasn't slowed down. According to Reuters, an experimental GLP-1 pill from Eli Lilly, called orforglipron, delivered better results than an oral version of semaglutide (developed by Novo-Nordisk) for both weight loss and blood sugar control.
GLP-1s might also help reverse prediabetes. According to a study published in the journal Diabetology and Metabolic Syndrome, GLP-1s were associated with prediabetes reversal, prevention of new-onset diabetes, and lower blood sugar for 2,903 patients in 12 separate clinical trials.
Many insurance plans currently cover GLP-1s for the treatment of diabetes, but not for the treatment of obesity or prediabetes. But Medicare prescription drug plans and state Medicaid programs could opt into a proposed five-year experiment that would cover off-label use of GLP-1s for members.
November is American Diabetes Month Here's what causes diabetes and how you can avoid getting it
We've all heard about diabetes mellitus (or simply diabetes), usually in reference to how the disease is becoming so prevalent. More than 25 million Americans have it, according to the American Diabetes Association.
But not many people know what it is and how they can avoid getting it.
The food we eat is digested into nutrients, which are then absorbed by the body. Protein turns into amino acids, fat into fatty acids, and starch (carbohydrates) into glucose.
Glucose is transported by the blood to the cells, where it's used for energy. But to enter the cells, insulin is needed. Without it, the level of glucose in the bloodstream gets too high. It can damage the blood vessels, cause kidney failure, impotence, blindness, and risks for amputation.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body still produces insulin, but the cells have become resistant to it. For a while, the
body can compensate by producing more insulin, but the cells become even more resistant. When the body can no longer produce enough insulin, type 2 diabetes has occurred.
The largest risk factor is being overweight. Others include age, a family history of the disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and lack of exercise.
Before developing type 2, people almost always have pre-diabetes, a condition marked by a blood glucose level that's too high. There are no symptoms, so those with pre-diabetes, often don't realize they have it. But their doctors will warn them, and they should listen.
Because it could take some time for pre-diabetes to turn into a full-blown case, there's an opportunity for prevention. Studies show that changes in diet,

Rare surgery restores vision with teeth
A Canadian man can see again after undergoing osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis, or tooth-in-eye surgery. The procedure is generally considered a lastresort treatment option, and involves using a piece of the patient’s own tooth to implant an artificial cornea with minimal risk of rejection. Today, the formerly blind man enjoys perfect vision in his restored eye.

Drugmakers have been allowed to advertise on television for nearly 30 years, but the Trump administration is looking to reverse that policy. According to The New York Times, a new memorandum from President Donald Trump directs his administration to restrict drug advertising via a rule-making process. The Food and Drug Administration is already cracking down on misleading drug advertisements with a series of enforcement letters.
Study: Stem cells age 10 times faster in space
Data collected from the identical twin astronauts Mark and Scott Kelly show that space travel is even harder on the body than previously thought. According to a new study published in the journal Cell Stem Cell, stem cells age approximately 10 times faster in space than on the ground, a change that may impact natural healing abilities and contribute to chronic disease. The data provides crucial insights about the health risks of spaceflights and may also help researchers better understand the aging process on Earth.
