California Governor Gavin Newsom plans to implement a ban on flammable plants within five feet of homes in designated fire-prone areas, aiming to enhance wildfire safety. Homeowners will need to clear combustible materials, potentially incurring significant costs.
The new rules, targeting areas rated as "very high" risk for fire, require compliance with what Newsom terms "science" and "climate reality." This initiative comes as Newsom seeks federal relief funds while proposing state legislation to allocate $50 million for wildfire prevention.

Fox News: Spinal cord stimulation restores movement for people with 'muscle wasting' disorder
New research indicates that electrical spinal cord stimulation may enhance muscle function in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), potentially restoring walking abilities. A study at the University of Pittsburgh showed significant improvements in motor neuron activity and muscle strength in three participants after a month of treatment.
Results included an average 40% increase in step length and up to 180% improvement in strength. While SMA is progressive, the study offers hope for improving quality of life through neuromodulation techniques. Future trials aim to explore this treatment for other neurodegenerative diseases.
