The sole American cruise ship passenger who had tested positive for hantavirus and was being held in the biocontainment unit at the University of Nebraska Medical Center has now tested negative. Dr. Stephen Cornfeld told CNN on Wednesday that he has since been moved into the quarantine unit with 15 other passengers of the Dutch vessel MV Hondius. Cornfeld was among 17 American passengers who were airlifted from the Canary Islands on a repatriation flight. The hantavirus outbreak has killed three people and left several others sick after infections of the Andes strain of the virus broke out in April while the ship was in the southern Atlantic. The Andes strain of hantavirus, unlike other strains, is able to spread between people. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday that the likelihood of “broad spread to the United States is considered extremely unlikely at this time,” adding that “clinicians should be aware of the potential for imported cases.”

Police Warn Drivers About Drunk Deer

A police force issued an unusual springtime warning to drivers—to watch out for boozed-up deer wobbling into the road after gorging on fermented berries. The Gendarmerie de Saône-et-Loire, based in an area of central-eastern France famed for the wines and berries of Burgundy, said spring is “inebriation season” for wild animals. Deer feast on spring shoots and over-ripe fruit—leaving them, the force said, confused, unsteady, and a serious hazard on rural roads. “If Bambi has had a bit too much of that forest aperitif, now might not be the best time to drive as if you own the road,” the force posted on social media, as reported by the New York Times. Drivers were urged to slow down, stay alert, and “avoid sudden steering maneuvers.” To prove the point, the gendarmerie shared a video of one plainly hammered deer spinning frantically in circles before keeling backwards, righting itself, then staggering off into a field—only to start the entire performance again.
French social media users were quick to vouch for the deer’s condition, with one local insisting roe deer “absolutely love” alder buckthorn buds and routinely end up “drunk” and “wasted” by the side of the road.

The thyroid gland plays a critical role in everything from energy production and metabolism to hormone regulation and cognitive function. Of course, persistent symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, or unexplained weight fluctuations should always be discussed with your doctor or endocrinologist first. But for those looking to support healthy thyroid function as part of their daily wellness routine, Nature Craft’s Thyroid Support Supplement may be worth adding to your supplement stack.
The formula is powered by kelp-derived iodine, a naturally occurring trace mineral essential for thyroid hormone production. Maintaining healthy iodine levels is associated with supporting energy levels, focus, metabolism, and overall well-being. When iodine levels are too low, some people may experience symptoms like sluggishness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and brain fog.

thyroid hormone production
In addition to iodine, the top-rated supplement also contains selenium, another important trace mineral known for its role in thyroid health and antioxidant support, along with L-tyrosine, an amino acid involved in dopamine production and cognitive function. Together, the ingredient blend is designed to help support healthy thyroid activity, mental clarity, and steady energy levels without relying on stimulants.
The once-daily capsules are easy to incorporate into an existing wellness routine, whether you’re looking to support focus during long workdays, maintain energy levels, or simply give your body additional nutritional support.

A man accused of throwing a rock at an endangered seal swimming off a beach in Hawaii has been arrested in Seattle, almost 3,000 miles away. Agents with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration charged 38-year-old Igor Mykhaylovych Lytvynchuk, a Washington state resident, with harassing a protected animal after witnesses in Lahaina, Maui, recorded footage of him allegedly throwing a large rock at the head of the seal, known as Lani, earlier this month. “In the cellphone video, a man can be seen holding the rock with one hand, aiming, and throwing it directly at the monk seal,” a criminal complaint reads. Witnesses described the rock, which only just missed the animal, as roughly the size of a coconut. When they confronted the man, he apparently said he “did not care and was ‘rich’ enough to pay any fines.” One angry local reportedly attacked the tourist after the incident. Maui Mayor Richard Bissen said any harassment of protected wildlife in the area would not be tolerated. “Lani is a reminder that humanity and the instinct to protect what is vulnerable are still values people can unite around,” he said.

A passenger has died after falling from his cabin’s balcony aboard a Carnival Cruise off the coast of the Bahamas. Staff threw a life ring to the man, and rescue teams eventually brought him back on board the boat. It is unclear whether he died in the water or after he returned to the ship. The incident took place on Tuesday as the Carnival Liberty vessel sailed from Celebration Key to Nassau. Staff aboard the boat are providing support to the man’s family, who were on vacation with him. It comes just two days after an 88-year-old passenger on another of the cruise line’s ships died at Celebration Key. Bahamian police say the woman, an American citizen, died after losing control of her mobility scooter, knocking her head against the hull of the docked Carnival Celebration, and plunging into the water. Neither victim has been identified.

Unless you’ve got the memory of an elephant, taking notes is a must. Remarkable has built a name for itself with innovative tablets that cut out distracting apps and focus on productivity. In fact, a study by Remarkable found that users experience 35 percent less stress and 20 percent more focus when using a paper tablet compared with working on a PC. Today, the brand is unveiling a new offering—the Remarkable Paper Pure.
The new 10.3-inch model is a marked improvement in every way. The battery is longer lasting (up to three weeks on a single charge), it features a crisper black-and-white canvas display, and it is 50 percent faster than the Remarkable 2. Like its predecessor, writing on the Remarkable Pure Paper is, well, remarkable. It feels just like writing on paper with the digital ink appearing in as little as 21 milliseconds—faster than the blink of an eye.

The custom-made marker can be used as a ballpoint pen, pencil, or even highlighter. Plus, since the tablet is held together with screws and snaps, not glue, repairs aren’t a headache for professionals.
Need a weekly planner? There’s a template for that. Want a notebook with ruled lines? There’s a template for that, too. You can even connect with productivity apps like Outlook, Slack, Google Drive, and OneDrive to pick up writing on your laptop. Whether you’re using it for work, school, or just as a journal, the Paper Pure is an all-in-one note-taking device.

Dan Fordice, the son of former Mississippi Governor Kirk Fordice, died in a single-engine plane crash near the Louisiana border on Tuesday. Fordice, a veteran and “passionate warbird pilot,” crashed at the Tallulah-Vicksburg Regional Airport in Madison Parish around 3 p.m., according to the New York Post. The 66-year-old aviation enthusiast had served in both the U.S. Army and the Mississippi National Guard as an engineer and special forces officer, according to the Vicksburg Post. After his military service, Fordice founded a nonprofit for Purple Heart veterans called the Warrior Bonfire Program. The Commemorative Air Force, a nonprofit dedicated to maintaining and flying historic World War II-era combat planes, celebrated his legacy as a member of the organization in a statement. “The Commemorative Air Force is deeply saddened by the loss of Dan Fordice, a valued CAF member, who was currently serving on the General Staff (our Board of Directors), a passionate warbird pilot, and a lifelong advocate for American veterans and military history,” the statement reads.

The remains of the second U.S. Army soldier who went missing during a training exercise in Morocco have been recovered, the Army announced in a press release on Wednesday. U.S. Air Force pararescuemen, in coordination with Moroccan Civil Protection and military mountaineers, recovered the remains of Spc. Mariyah Symone Collington from a coastal cave near the Cap Draa Training Area on Tuesday, according to the Army. Collington, 19, from Taveres, Florida, was assigned to Charlie Battery’s 5th Battalion as an air and missile defense crewmember. “The loss of Spc. Collington is a profound loss for the 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command,” said Brig. Gen. Curtis King. “Her recovery closes the search for our two missing Soldiers, but our commitment to caring for their Families, friends, and teammates continues.” Collington had been awarded the Army Service Ribbon for her service. Collington and 1st Lt. Kendrick Lamont Key Jr., 27, went missing on May 2 during the annual African Lion joint training exercise. Key’s remains were recovered on Saturday by a military search team.
The drug counselor tied to Matthew Perry’s fatal overdose was sentenced Wednesday to two years in federal prison. Erik Fleming, a former film producer and addiction counselor, became the first of five defendants to plead guilty in connection to the Friends star’s 2023 ketamine overdose at his Los Angeles home. Fleming, 56, admitted to one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death. Prosecutors said Fleming introduced Perry to alleged dealer Jasveen Sangha—dubbed the “Ketamine Queen”—just two weeks before the actor died. Fleming then allegedly bought ketamine from Sangha, marked up the price, and resold it to Perry’s assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa. Fleming immediately cooperated after investigators contacted him in 2024 and provided information about Sangha’s operation. Still, prosecutors argued his background as a drug counselor made the crime especially disturbing, given Perry’s “well-documented battle with drug addiction,” according to the sentencing memo. The final defendant to receive their sentencing for their role in Perry’s death is Iwasma, who admitted to injecting Perry with the fatal dose of ketamine. The former assistant is expected to be sentenced on June 10 and could face up to 15 years in prison.
Kouri Richins, who was convicted of murdering her husband and later writing a children’s book about grief, was sentenced on Wednesday to life in prison without the possibility of parole. The mother of three was accused of poisoning her husband, Eric Richins, with a fatal dose of fentanyl in his cocktail in 2022. She was found guilty of his murder in March after a jury deliberated for just three hours. The Utah native was convicted of aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder, two counts of insurance fraud, and one count of forgery. The case drew more attention after it emerged that Richins had written a book titled Are You With Me just a year after her husband’s death to help children cope with grief. During the trial, the 35-year-old was accused of attempting to poison her husband multiple times, including an earlier attempt on Valentine’s Day with a fentanyl-laced sandwich. “She wanted to leave Eric Richins but did not want to leave his money,” said Brad Bloodworth, the Summit County prosecutor.

Grey’s Anatomy star Chyler Leigh revealed that she’s split from her husband of almost 24 years, Nathan West. “It was time to let it go. Even after such a long time,” the 44-year-old announced for the first time during an appearance on the Books That Changed My Life podcast. “It just hit a point where it was like, ‘Okay, what you want and what I want aren’t really lining up anymore,’” she said, wanting to remain amicable rather than allow resentment and anger to take hold. She said the tension between them became “so abundantly apparent” that even their children had noticed. “He went through a lot of trauma with his family. I went through a lot of trauma with my family. So we’re just perpetuating that cycle. And so it was like, ‘Okay, we have to make a choice,’” she explained. The two are currently on good terms, Leigh disclosed. She did not specify whether the couple has officially divorced. Leigh and West, 47, first met in 1999 during an audition and married soon after in 2002. Both actors have had successful careers and share three children together. Leigh is best known for portraying Dr. Lexie Grey on Grey’s Anatomy and Alex Danvers on Supergirl. West starred in films such as Bring It On, Miracle, D2: The Mighty Ducks, and Not Another Teen Movie.

Sharon Stone’s family has suffered another tragedy. “Mike Stone, My oldest brother, Has passed away. Following an extended illness,” she revealed in a Wednesday Instagram post. “We wish him peace. Sharon, Roan, Laird & Quinn 🥰,” she added, signing the names of her three children. Mike, age 74 at his death, was a musician and actor. He was known for his roles in the 1990 drama End of the Night and the 1995 action film The Quick and the Dead, which he starred in alongside his sister. He also made appearances in Eraser, Malevolence, One Tough B-----d, and, most recently, the 2022 film Destinos Oposto. He also starred in three episodes of the daytime soap The Bold and the Beautiful. This is just the latest in a string of deaths that have afflicted the Stone family. Their matriarch, Dorothy Stone, died last spring at age 91. Her younger brother, Patrick Stone, also died in February 2023 at age 57 after suffering from a heart attack that happened nearly a year after the death of his 11-month-old son.
