Ashton Forbes, a citizen journalist and consultant, has recently discussed unconventional perspectives on time travel, suggesting that our understanding of this concept may be evolving in unexpected ways. Time Travel Beyond Fiction In a recent interview, Forbes delved into the idea that time travel might not align with traditional science fiction portrayals. He suggests that advancements in technology could enable forms of time manipulation or perception that differ from popular expectations. Technological Implications Forbes discusses the potential of technologies capable of creating distortions in space-time, which could lead to phenomena resembling time travel. These concepts involve complex scientific principles and remain largely theoretical, but they open intriguing possibilities for future exploration. Through various platforms, Forbes encourages public engagement with these complex topics, aiming to demystify advanced scientific concepts and make them accessible to a broader au...

The FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024, recently passed by Congress, has sparked significant debate due to the inclusion of provisions aimed at enhancing online safety for children. Critics argue that these measures could lead to increased censorship and surveillance, potentially infringing upon internet freedom and user privacy. The legislation incorporates elements from three separate online safety bills, each with bipartisan support, designed to: Restrict Children's Access to social media: Proposals include prohibiting children under 13 from using social media platforms and implementing stricter age verification processes. While intended to protect young users, opponents fear these measures could limit free expression and lead to overreach in content moderation. Mandate Platform Accountability: Social media companies would be required to ensure their platforms do not harm youth mental health. This could result in increased monitoring of user activity, raising concerns about data ...

As of January 1, 2025, global health authorities are on high alert due to the emergence of a mysterious illness referred to as 'Disease X' in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Since October 2024, this flu-like disease has infected over 400 individuals, predominantly affecting children under the age of five, and has resulted in at least 31 deaths. Patients present with symptoms including fever, headache, cough, runny nose, body aches, and breathing difficulties. The exact cause of the illness remains unidentified, raising concerns about its potential airborne transmission. Specialists are investigating various pathogens, including influenza, malaria, and measles, to determine the origin of the disease.

  Citizen Watch Report December 28, 2024 10:31 pm   by  CWR The CDC recently reported the first severe human case of bird flu in the U.S., raising concerns about possible mutations. The patient, an elderly person with underlying health conditions in Louisiana, contracted the H5N1 strain after coming into contact with sick or dead birds. Genetic analysis showed mutations in the virus, which may make it more capable of infecting humans. So far, 66 human cases have been confirmed across the U.S., but the actual number may be higher. Though most cases have been mild, this severe instance has intensified fears of a potential pandemic. There is no evidence of human-to-human transmission yet, according to the CDC.

Holography, the science of creating three-dimensional images through light interference, has advanced significantly since its inception. Today, holograms find applications across various sectors, including telecommunications, education, and entertainment. For instance, in 2017, Verizon and Korea Telecom conducted the first holographic call using 5G technology, showcasing the potential of holograms in revolutionizing communication. In the realm of education, holographic technology addresses challenges such as teacher shortages. A notable example is in Queensland, Australia, where the Holobox system beams qualified educators into remote classrooms, ensuring students receive quality instruction despite geographical barriers. Despite these legitimate applications, holography has been entangled in conspiracy theories, notably Project Blue Beam. Proposed in the 1990s by Canadian journalist Serge Monast, this theory alleges that global elites plan to establish a New World Order by using advan...

Fog, a natural weather phenomenon characterized by low-lying clouds that reduce visibility, has recently caused significant disruptions and raised environmental concerns across the globe. While often associated with tranquil landscapes, recent events highlight its far-reaching impact on travel, public health, and ecosystems. In late December 2024, dense fog created chaos for travelers in the United Kingdom. Major airports, including Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, and Manchester, faced significant delays and cancellations during the peak holiday travel season. At Gatwick Airport alone, delays stretched up to three hours, stranding thousands of passengers. The Met Office issued weather warnings as visibility dropped to just 100 meters in some areas, posing hazards for both air and road travel. This widespread disruption underscored the challenges that fog can present to transportation networks. In Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, fog combined with severe air pollution to create hazardous livi...

 Trump Applauds Court Ruling Blocking Biden’s Border Wall Sale and Paving Way for Investigation President-elect Donald Trump has expressed strong approval following a federal judge's decision to halt the Biden administration's sale of border wall materials. This ruling comes amid allegations that the current administration was auctioning off these materials at significantly reduced prices, potentially undermining future border security efforts. Reports have surfaced indicating that the Biden administration has been selling unused border wall components through platforms like GovPlanet, an online federal equipment marketplace. These sales have been occurring since at least 2023, following the administration's decision to cease further construction of the border wall initiated during Trump's presidency. In response to these sales, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a motion seeking to prevent the disposal of additional border wall materials. A federal judge in Texas ...
