2022’s Social Security raise could come with this sneaky surprise: While a generous Social Security raise is a good thing in theory, there’s one scenario where it could actually backfire. And seniors need to gear up for that possibility. Will a giant raise result in taxes on your benefits? Seniors are often shocked to learn that Social Security income is, in fact, subject to taxes. But whether taxes apply to those benefits depends on how much income seniors have.

Would you be surprised to learn that thousands of enslaved Africans were owned by Native Americans, or that Columbus — who never owned a slave and adopted a Taino boy as his son — became an American icon starting in 1892 after 11 Italians were murdered in New Orleans?

Researchers also found “dangerously high levels” of lung irritant benzaldehyde, which is added to give them an almond flavour, in 61 of the 65 samples. “It changes how some of the cells in your lungs work,”
Dr Larcombe said. “It impairs your lungs that are normally responsible for cleaning up pathogens.”

Biologists call these hybrid animals chimeras, after the mythical Greek creature with a lion’s head, a goat’s body and a serpent’s tail. They are the products of experiments in which human stem cells were added to developing animal fetuses. But with no federal guidelines in place, an awkward question hovers above the work: How human must a chimera be before more stringent research rules should kick in?
