The Breakfast Club was a movie released in 1985 about five teenagers in school detention. John Hughes wrote, directed and produced the movie, which was digitally remastered in 2015 for a 30th anniversary release in theaters. Hughes' original title for the movie was to be the Lunch Bunch, but he heard a colleague refer to detention as the breakfast club, and so the name stuck.
In 2015, the movie was preserved at the Library of Congress for its contribution to society in the areas of culture, history, and aesthetics.

The study recorded a 97% use of smartphones by adults age 18 to 29 years old. The Pew research reported that 15% of adults are smartphone dependent, meaning they do not subscribe to high-speed internet, but rely on their phones.

Effective wound management is critical to patient care in modern hospital settings, particularly for individuals suffering from chronic, non-healing, or complex wounds. Among the advanced therapies now integrated into wound care programs, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has emerged as a valuable and evidence-based option. Delivered in a hyperbaric chamber, this treatment provides patients with 100 percent oxygen at pressures greater than normal atmospheric levels, creating physiological effects that enhance healing and improve outcomes in a hospital environment.

RSV is a virus generally present in the winter, usually at its worst in January and February each year. We are starting to see cases of RSV in our community.
