In it, it is shown that some chemical compounds, called phthalates, may be behind a significant number of premature births. Phthalates are used for many industrial purposes, with plastic softening being one of the most common. They are also found in electronic cigarette refills, so it is another point to take into account in case of pregnancy.
They began to be used in the 1920s. However, their mass production did not reach until the 1950s, when they began to be used for PVC processing. Since then, despite their physical usefulness, it has been observed that they can cause health problems. This is so because they are endocrine disruptors. That is, they interfere with the proper functioning of hormones. Therefore, they can cause diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular pathologies or certain reproductive conditions.
Precisely for this reason, the authors of the study wanted to check if premature births could have any relationship. And they saw that it was. In fact, according to their calculations,

How to Increase Comfort with Apple Vision Pro: Ingenious Solution Revealed
- Some Vision Pro owners complain of discomfort when wearing their headset
- A Reddit user with the nickname Grimdar came up with a simple solution
- Other owners of augmented reality glasses from Apple began to be inspired by his trick
Ever since Apple’s Vision Pro augmented reality glasses officially went on sale in the United States, some customers have complained about its weight, which is almost the same as the last generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro. While Apple has its own solution to improve it by adding Dual Loop tape, on Income appeared an ingeniously simple solution to increase the comfort of the Vision Pro wearer with the help of one little trick.
A simple solution will increase comfort when using Vision Pro
The Dual Loop strap has a pair of upper and lower straps for a precise fit, but is not as comfortable as the Solo Knit strap, which provides the wearer with cushioning, breathability and flexibility. With that in mind, an Apple Vision Pro customer nicknamed Grimdar spent an additional $100 (approx. 2,300 crowns without tax) to attach a second Solo Knit strap to the existing Solo Knit strap on the Vision Pro and didn’t hesitate to brag about it on Reddit.
Foamstars: A Competitive PvP Shooter with Creative Twists and Controversial Mechanics
Foamstars: Exploring the Dichotomy of a Competitive Shooter
When it comes to PvP shooters, Foamstars stands out with its unique twist on the genre. However, beneath its vibrant surface lies a game that struggles to find its identity amidst a sea of multiplayer trends. In this article, we delve into the underlying themes and concepts presented by Foamstars, unveiling both its strengths and shortcomings.
A Bubbly Theme with False Earnestness
The energy exuded by Foamstars is reminiscent of Sega Dreamcast games designed to impress stakeholders with dazzling visuals.

This false earnestness seeps through in questionable voice performances and expensive cosmetic packs that overshadow the core experience.
“Foamstars has a strong foundation with some creative twists on the winning formula coined by Splatoon.”
“For every clever map design or killer song, there’s a bad voice performance or a cosmetic pack that literally costs more than the price of Foamstars itself.”
Despite these red flags, if players can wade past them and immerse themselves deep into the foam-filled world of Foamstars,

Why do insects like to bump their heads into light?
However, all hypotheses have been rejected because they have no valid evidence.
In a study published in the journal Nature Communications in early 2024, authors from Imperial College London discovered an unexpected behavior of insects. Many species such as moths or dragonflies always “turn their backs” towards the light. They even fly upside down.
The image records a caterpillar turning away from artificial light (Photo: Imperial College London).
Based on 477 recorded videos analyzing insect behavior, researchers suggest that some insects fly toward light as a way to orient themselves.
However, when the light was placed close to the ground, some insects, as mentioned, even flew upside down and fell to the floor. This shows that they are completely disoriented.
“Often, light means up, and darkness means down,” says author Avalon Owens. “With artificial light, this rule is turned upside down, and where insects go is not actually where they want to go.”
Although this experiment partially revealed why insects like to be near light, it did not explain why they find light at a distance, or why some get “trapped” in light. this morning.
Researchers believe that this secret will soon be revealed thanks to camera technology and more sensitive analysis techniques.
