Dark Side of Computers, Smart Phones and Tablets: Blue Light Causes Cancer, Ruins Your Eyes and Makes You Toss and Turn at Night

use a computer and smart phone for more than 10 hours a day.

So I was shocked to learn that recent scientific studies show the blue light emitted by our computers, tablets and smart phones can cause cancer, ruin your eyes, and cause insomnia.

Device makers use screens that pump out a lot of blue light. Not for any evil purpose … but just because it’s cheap to make bright LEDs lights which pump out crazy amounts of blue light frequencies (light with a wavelength of between 450 and 495 nanometers).

Cancer

A new study by Spanish, British and Canadian scientists published Monday in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives found that blue light is linked to prostate and breast cancer.

The study found that other bright light - such as red or green LEDs - are not linked with cancer.

Blindness

Numerous studies show that the blue light from our devices can lead to serious eye problems.

For example, blue light is linked with macular degeneration … the main cause of blindness among older Americans.

Insomnia

It's well-known that exposure to blue light at night can lead to insomnia.

What You Can Do to Protect Yourself

There are numerous blue light filters which you can put on your computer, tablet or phone. For example, Amazon carries hundreds of them.

For example, I have a clear plastic filter that covers my work computer monitor.

And I just bought a replacement glass cover for my daughter's iPhone that is a blue light filter.

On my laptop, I applied a clear stick-on film which is a blue light filter.

Finally, I've set all of the hand-held devices in my house to "night mode", so that they shift away from blue light (and towards a more reddish hue) at night. Here's how to do it for your Windows-based device, iPhone or Android.

In part 2, we will discuss the thousands of scientific studies on the benefits (believe it or not) of certain red light therapies. This is the flip side of the blue light problem: a way to improve your health …

Mandy Manning of Joel E. Ferris High School in Spokane, Washington was awarded the 2018 National Teacher of the Year award Wednesday at the White House. However, through her clothing choice, Manning took the opportunity in a political turn.

Manning is a math and English teacher who works with refugee and immigrant students, according to Getty. President Trump, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos and Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta were on hand to present the award to Manning.

Missouri legislature to hold special session to consider impeaching Gov. Eric Greitens

by Diana Stancy Correll

| May 03, 2018 09:52 PM

The Missouri General Assembly has obtained enough support from lawmakers to call for a special session to determine if Gov. Eric Greitens should be impeached, due to multiple allegations of misconduct.

The Missouri House Special Investigative Committee on Oversight has been conducting a investigation into accusations against Greitens for several months.

A total of 138 House members and 29 senators signed a petition, and lawmakers will be called into a special session on May 18 to look at the findings from the committee, “including, but not limited to disciplinary actions against Gov. Eric R. Greitens.”

Don Blankenship attacks Mitch McConnell and his 'China family' in new ad

Don Blankenship, a former coal CEO and GOP candidate for the West Virginia Senate nomination, accused Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., of being a “swamp captain” who have been given millions of dollars from his “China family.”

"Swamp captain Mitch McConnell has created millions of jobs for China people. While doing so Mitch has gotten rich,” Blankenship says in an ad that was released Thursday. “In fact his China family has given him tens of millions of dollars."

Mike Pence 'lost count' of number of times Trump has requested to start meetings with a prayer

by Katie Leach

| May 03, 2018 07:48 PM

Vice President Mike Pence says President Trump often encourages members of his administration and Cabinet to engage in prayer before the start of meetings.

"There's prayer going on on a regular basis in this White House,” Pence told the Christian Broadcasting Network in an interview published Thursday.

Pence, a devout Christian, revealed that the extent to which prayer and faith plays a role in this administration is “one of the most meaningful things” to him.

“Whether it's public meetings or not, I've lost count of the number of times that the president has nudged me, or nudged another member of the Cabinet and said, 'Let's start this meeting with prayer,'" he explained.

His comments came shortly after Trump signed an executive order creating a faith-based initiative to protect religious freedom during a White House celebration of National Day of Prayer.

American Civil Liberties Union leaders are denying a claim from attorney Alan Dershowitz that they are silent on civil liberties issues involving President Trump because they oppose his policies.

Dershowitz, a former Harvard Law School professor, said in an MSNBC interview Thursday that “the ACLU has totally disappeared” and that civil libertarians have "forgotten what they have been preaching for 50 years because it’s Donald Trump that they are after.”

Dershowitz said that group should be concerned about the reported wiretapping of Trump attorney Michael Cohen’s phone weeks before April 9 raids of his office and residence, and that they should not trust authorities and judges to restrain a sprawling probe of possible crimes connected to Trump.

It was later reported that Cohen's phone calls were monitored using a pen register but not wiretapped.

Laws are broad enough, Dershowitz argued, that prosecutors can find felonies committed by almost anyone, while specific banking laws that may affect Cohen — who facilitated a $130,000 payoff to former porn star Stormy Daniels — "are so elastic, so stretched" that they can apply to many activities.

“Civil libertarians ought to express concern,” Dershowitz said.

Looks like Randy Bryce touted false endorsements

by Emily Jashinsky

| May 03, 2018 06:13 PM

House Speaker Paul Ryan’s, R-Wis., retirement had the odd effect of making Democrat Randy Bryce’s campaign more difficult. By creating a legitimate opportunity for Democrats to flip the district, some in the party wondered whether the untested ironworker was really the best candidate to win Ryan’s open seat, and his sleepy primary battle intensified as a consequence of their mounting skepticism.

Bryce’s background made him attractive to national Democrats, desperate for proof the party could still appeal to working class voters, and he managed to score some big endorsements after his campaign announcement video went viral last June. But a new Vice profile of his candidacy suggests Bryce has been improperly claiming to have the endorsements of several elected officials.

Last August, Bryce conceded he made a “mistake” in saying he had the endorsement of Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y. When Vice sought to verify the other endorsements Bryce touted on his website, one congressman’s office indicated his was false, and three additional endorsements were subsequently removed from the site amid the outlet’s probes.

Paul Ryan accepts House chaplain's decision to rescind resignation, ducks 'protracted fight'

by Mandy Mayfield

| May 03, 2018 06:29 PM

House Speaker Paul Ryan accepted Father Patrick Conroy's decision Thursday to rescind his resignation, allowing him to remain as chaplain of the House.

"It is my job as speaker to do what is best for this body, and I know that this body is not well served by a protracted fight over such an important post. I intend to sit down with Father Conroy early next week so that we can move forward for the good of the whole House," Ryan said in a statement.

Conroy told Ryan in a letter earlier in the day Thursday that he was walking back his resignation, which was announced last month. Conroy said it was never explained to him why Ryan wanted him out, but he added Ryan’s chief of staff suggested he needed to resign because he is Catholic.

Chuck Schumer’s view of transparency: For thee, but not for me

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has been quick to criticize President Trump and congressional Republicans for sins against transparency in recent months. Yet, when Schumer had an opportunity to help pass a bipartisan transparency bill last week, he refused.

The bill in question is the Taxpayers Right to Know Act sponsored by Sens. James Lankford, R-Okla., and Claire McCaskill, D-Mo. It would require federal agencies to post an inventory of their programs. This inventory would detail how much programs cost, how many employees are required to run them, who the intended beneficiaries are, and how effective they have been.

It’s a good-government bill that combines transparency with performance metrics to try to find out what is working well and what isn't. The bill’s bipartisan backers believe taxpayers have a right to know how their money is spent so they can hold their elected officials accountable.

Then, he got to the real issue when he added that revealing this information could lead to the “slashing of programs.”

Imagine that: Taxpayers discovering the programs they are paying for aren’t working and then asking Congress to eliminate them or reduce funding. The horror.
