They Weren't Supposed To See This

A Pennsylvania-based ABC affiliate recently aired something unexpected: the upcoming U.S. presidential election results for the state of Pennsylvania, during a Formula 1 race broadcast from Mexico City. Viewers noticed the results screen appeared for several minutes, sparking confusion and prompting the station, WPVI, to issue an apology. 

According to WPVI, the displayed numbers were randomly generated test results intended to ensure broadcast equipment readiness for election night, not actual results. They clarified that this was an internal error and assured viewers that steps had been taken to prevent future occurrences.

This incident has led some viewers to question the need for such early test runs, wondering why election data displays would need a test run more than a week ahead of election night.

Man who let deadly snakes bite him 200+ times could be key to new antivenom Scientists have developed a groundbreaking broad-spectrum antivenom using antibodies from a man in Wisconsin, Tim Friede , who endured over 200 venomous snake bites (and hundreds more self-injections) over nearly two decades unco.edu +15 smithsonianmag.com +15 washingtonpost.com +15 . From species such as king cobras, black mambas, and rattlesnakes, this extreme exposure triggered his immune system to produce rare, broadly reactive antibodies. Researchers at Columbia University (led by Peter Kwong) and Centivax (with Jacob Glanville) isolated two of these potent antibodies. When combined with the drug varespladib , the cocktail successfully protected mice against venom from 19 highly dangerous snakes , fully neutralizing 13 species and partially neutralizing the remaining six cen.acs.org +10 nature.com +10 wsj.com +10 . This represents a potential leap forward from today's antivenoms, which are typically...

Image
According to Daniel, This Is a Prophetic Red Flag The “Little Horn” appears in the Book of Daniel , particularly in chapters 7 and 8. It has long been associated by scholars, theologians, and fringe interpreters with an antichrist-type figure , marked by power, deception, blasphemy, and global domination. Applying this symbol to modern events , here are interpretations—both traditional and fringe: Biblical Background (Daniel 7:8, 7:24-25; 8:9-12) Arises among ten horns (ten kings/kingdoms) Has eyes like a man and a mouth speaking great things Wages war against the saints Changes times and laws Exalts himself against the "Prince of the Host" Mainstream Interpretations Historical View : Often applied to Antiochus Epiphanes (a Seleucid king who desecrated the Temple), or to Rome , symbolizing imperial oppression. Futurist Christian View : Interprets it as the final Antichrist , emerging from a revived Roman Empire (possibly the EU or a future global govern...
