NASA satellites paint a terrifying picture of Hurricane Dorian
As the southeastern United States braces for impact, NASA is doing its best to aid in the monitoring and forecasting of Hurricane Dorian, which is currently barreling straight for Florida. The powerful storm is expected to cause a lot of damage once it makes landfall, but with NASA’s help, forecasters already know a lot about its destructive potential.
In a new blog post, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory explains the various tools at the agency’s disposal, painting a clear and frightening picture of Dorian days ahead of its appearance on the U.S. coast.

The new Blink XT2 security camera with 2-year battery life is down to its lowest price yet
I love Arlo wireless home security cameras. In fact, I use Arlo cameras at my home. The features are great, the app is terrific, and they’re nice and reliable so I can always count on them. Even still, if I was starting over from scratch, I wouldn’t go with Arlo for two main reasons. First, Arlo cameras are insanely expensive. Second, the batteries only last 2-3 month per charge and it’s a pain in the butt. So, what would I get if I was starting from scratch? I’d probably get an All-new Blink XT2 Outdoor/Indoor Smart Security Camera System with 2-year battery life and low pricing that’s even lower right now because every XT2 bundle is on sale!
All-new Blink XT2 Outdoor/Indoor Smart Security Camera with cloud storage included, 2-way audio…: $79.99

Let’s get something straight about the panic over vaping and lung health
Vaping has been taking over headlines in recent weeks, and for all the worst reasons. The smoking alternative has been linked to lung issues in dozens of hospitalized patients and health officials are investigating what may be hundreds of related cases. Now, in the state where these cases began to gain national attention, Wisconsin, health officials in Milwaukee are urging everyone to stop vaping entirely.
It’s all pretty scary, at least on the surface, and if you’ve kicked a smoking habit in favor of e-cigarettes, you might be second-guessing your decision. However, there’s a serious lack of information available about what kinds of products the affected individuals were using, and it’s leading to what may be an unwarranted panic.

Pharma company mix-up results in very hairy babies
A recent outbreak of so-called “werewolf syndrome” among babies in Spain prompted an investigation by health officials who eventually discovered that a drug company was mislabeling its products. A total of 17 cases of unexpected hair growth in young children — a condition known as hypertrichosis — initially left doctors puzzled, but a check of a nearby pharmaceutical company’s operations revealed the cause.
As Guardian reports, drug supplier FarmaQuimica Sur was found to be accidentally mislabeling the medication minoxidil, which is the active ingredient in hair regrowth drugs like Rogaine. The drug was distributed to pharmacies as omeprazole, a drug to treat gastric discomfort.
