Holding a 60-second plank is presented as an accessible isometric exercise that, when paired with regular aerobic activity, may help lower resting blood pressure. The article cites evidence that isometric training can reduce both systolic and diastolic BP and may outperform some cardio or high‑intensity workouts. It cautions that BP can spike during isometric holds, especially for those with hypertension, and recommends starting with shorter holds (20–30 seconds), maintaining proper form and steady breathing, and consulting a doctor before starting. Overall, a daily 60-second plank could be a helpful addition to a heart-healthy routine.
Gestational hypertension rose from 6% of births in 2016 to 10.4% in 2024, affecting more than 377,000 pregnancies annually with increases across age, race, and states; for babies it can mean growth problems, preterm birth, stillbirth, and placental issues, while mothers face organ damage, higher stroke risk, and possible progression to preeclampsia/eclampsia. Risk is higher with age 40+, pre-pregnancy obesity, and multiple pregnancies, with notable disparities by race/ethnicity. Causes are likely multifactorial and include aging, obesity, and more multiple pregnancies; detection relies on regular BP checks at prenatal visits, with urgent evaluation for severe headaches, vision changes, upper abdominal pain, swelling, shortness of breath. Treatment varies by BP level and signs of preeclampsia, often requiring closer monitoring, medications, and sometimes early delivery. Prevention focuses on optimizing health before pregnancy (weight management, physical activity, healthy diet, not smoking). Postpartum BP issues can persist, and a history of hypertensive disorders raises long-term risk of chronic hypertension and cardiovascular disease, so future clinicians should be aware.
In an interview where a guest floated declaring a national-security emergency to influence the 2026 midterms, Trump declined to rule out the option, a move CNN describes as part of a pattern of signals toward greater federal involvement in elections. Legal scholars say nationalizing elections is constitutionally dubious and that election administration is primarily handled by states, but the exchange highlights Trump’s continued interest in expanding federal influence, alongside ongoing debates about election procedures such as mail voting and voter list access.
Delta expands its unbundled premium strategy by introducing Basic Business across its premium cabins, offering the full Delta One experience at a lower price but with major perks removed—miles, one checked bag, seat pre-selection, free changes, upgrades, and lounge access. Basic Business is about 7% cheaper than standard premium and roughly 21% cheaper than Delta One; Basic First is already available on some routes, while Basic Premium Select and Basic Business bookings roll out on domestic and select long-haul flights starting in September, with enhanced check-in and lounge access retained through Jan 18, 2027. Industry analysts caution this as nickel‑and‑diming, though it could benefit cost-conscious travelers and some corporate customers.

Daveigh Chase, the former child actress known for voicing Lilo in Lilo & Stitch and for Spirited Away, died in a Los Angeles hospital on June 16 at 35, with AIDS listed as the cause and chronic polysubstance use noted as another condition. Her father, John Schwallier, told The Post he wasn’t surprised by the AIDS diagnosis, attributing it to years of addiction and homelessness on LA’s Skid Row, and he said he might pursue custody of her cremated remains. Chase had largely stepped away from acting after 2016, with friends and her longtime manager attempting to help her, while her mother Cathy received her remains.

Scientists have uncovered dozens of 132-million-year-old dinosaur tracks in a small Brenton Formation outcrop near Knysna, South Africa, making them the youngest known footprints in southern Africa and evidence that dinosaurs persisted in the region after earlier lava flows; the tiny site suggests diverse trackmakers (theropods, possibly ornithopods, and maybe sauropods) and hints that more Cretaceous traces await discovery along the Western Cape coast.
