Donald Trump signs executive order to rename Lake Ontario as Lake America

  Donald Trump has once again sparked a storm of reactions involving Canada — and this time, one of North America’s Great Lakes is at the center of the controversy. The president announced that he had officially filed the paperwork needed to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America,” declaring that the change would take effect immediately. Standing alongside Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller, Trump held up an executive order and made his intentions clear. “This is officially effective immediately,” Trump said. He later explained that the necessary steps had already been taken to move forward with the controversial name change. “We filed all the necessary papers, documents, and notified all the various people we have to notify,” he said.

Miley Cyrus’ heartbreaking message after godmother Dolly Parton dies at 80



 Fans around the world are mourning the death of country music icon Dolly Parton. Now, her goddaughter, Miley Cyrus, has shared a heartfelt tribute in honor of the legendary star.

Dolly Parton’s nephew, Bryan Seaver, confirmed her death in a video shared on social media on Tuesday, August 25.

He started off saying: “My name is Brin Seaver, son of Cassie Parton, and I’m representing the Parton and Owens family today announcing the passing of my aunt, Dolly Rebecca Parton Dean, Sister, Sis and Granny to one generation and Gigi to the next.”

Seaver continued: “This video announcement is something Dolly asked of me years ago, before I fully absorbed it as a future reality. As her head of security for more than two decades, a role my father Larry held before me, I have imagined the heaviness of this moment but haven’t truly felt it til now.

“It is an honor, an honor that is mixed with absolute pride and great sadness. But sadness lies with us, not with Dolly. Dolly has lived in the light and is in the arms of Jesus, surely met by Carl, her parents and countless others who have watched her and longed to meet her in the heavens.”

Her team has confirmed in a statement to PEOPLE that her death came after a “brief battle with cancer.” The type of cancer she had been diagnosed with was not disclosed.

“I will always love her”

Dolly Parton is now being mourned all over the world, and her goddaughter Miley Cyrus took to Instagram to share a heartfelt tribute to the woman she loved and has known since birth.

“The feeling of losing my Aunt Dolly is beyond what feels right to share,” she wrote on Instagram.

“Our most sacred moments were private and they’ll stay there behind the stage, beneath the glamour & between our hearts.

“What I KNOW is Dolly would want me to feel it, write a song about it, and then continue on and be strong. I have an angel by my side. I always have. One of our last conversations was about music and metamorphosis.”

She concluded: “I will always love her and want to make her proud. My heart breaks for the world, her family and friends who will miss her deeply. We’re in this loss together and we will see her in all of the most beautiful things.”

Rest in peace, Dolly. You will never be forgotten.

Common back-pain drug may be linked to higher dementia risk, large study finds

  A pain medication that millions of Americans rely on for chronic back pain may come with a hidden risk: a significantly higher chance of developing dementia or other cognitive problems, according to a major new study. Compared 26,000 adults Researchers from Case Western Reserve University and several partner institutions analyzed medical records from 68 health systems across the U.S., comparing 26,414 adults prescribed gabapentin for persistent low-back pain with a matched group who had similar pain — but didn’t take the drug. Their finding was sobering: Adults who received six or more gabapentin prescriptions were 29% more likely to be diagnosed with dementia and 85% more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) within 10 years. The risk wasn’t limited to older adults. In fact, it was younger Americans who saw the most dramatic increases. Younger adults saw shocking risk increases For people normally considered decades away from dementia: Ages 35–49 taking gabapentin ha...

Horrible childhood event shaped this Hollywood star’s journey

  For years, this actress has delivered award-winning performances on screen, earning recognition and icon status in Hollywood. Yet her early life was anything but glamorous. Her biological father abandoned her before she was even born, and at 15, she was raped in her own home by a man who claimed he had paid her mother $500. Kidnapped by her stepfather Born in 1962 in Roswell, New Mexico, this Hollywood icon was the child of a brief union between her teen mother, Virginia, and an Air Force airman, Charles Harmon Sr. Her father deserted her then-18-year-old mother after a two-month marriage, long before she was born. Instead, when the actress was just three months old, her mother married a newspaper advertising salesman. Because her stepfather often switched jobs, the family relocated frequently. ”I was desperate for a sense of belonging so I adopted different characters wherever I went,” she once reflected. Her early years were marked by constant moves, fueled by her parents’ alco...
