According to one study, the use of common over-the-counter gastritis medications such as TUMS or Prilosec can increase the likelihood of developing migraines by as much as 70 percent.  A cohort of 11,800 individuals was analyzed by researchers from the University of Maryland, of which 2,100 were users of over-the-counter anti-heartburn medications.

Venice becomes the first city globally to implement a payment system exclusively for visitors. To verify that individuals beyond entry points possess a QR code, officials conduct arbitrary inspections. Despite this, not all individuals are content. Visitors to Venice are now required to pay an entrance fee by a contentious scheme that went into effect today. The pilot program is intended to deter tourists and reduce the volume of visitors that congest the canals during the height of the holiday season, thereby making the city more habitable for locals, according to authorities.

A grand jury in the state of Arizona has indicted sixteen individuals, including Mark Meadows, the chief of staff for Donald Trump, and Rudy Giuliani, an attorney, on charges related to their purported involvement in nullifying the former president's defeat in the 2020 election.  Eleven Republicans are charged in the indictment issued late Wednesday by the state attorney general. The document in question was erroneously submitted to Congress, wherein it claimed that Trump had secured the crucial state for 2020.

On Thursday, the United States Supreme Court indicated its willingness to remand Donald Trump's criminal case concerning his endeavors to annul the 2020 election to a lower court. This remand would enable the court to determine whether specific elements of the indictment constituted "official acts" shielded by presidential immunity.
