Jim Ross has been battling major health problems since the better part of last year and had been hospitalized numerous times. However, with the support of his family and fans, Ross emerged even better from each of those situations. Moreover, it was no different this time when he was detected with cancer.
Ross had been working part-time appearances for AEW for a while now. With AEW All In Texas coming up, it remains to be seen if he would be healthy enough to make it to the show to possibly call the action for major matches.

Wharton psychologist and ex-Pentagon advisor unpacks the real mental health crisis among youth. Netizens ask, 'Are we sure it's just kids?'
When it comes to youth mental health and technology, it turns out the culprit isn't just how long kids are on their phones—but why they can't put them down. Adam Grant , organizational psychologist at Wharton and former advisor to the Pentagon, recently stirred up the internet with a stark observation about screen use and emotional wellbeing. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Grant wrote, 'The biggest risk to young people's mental health is not screentime. It's addictive behavior,' referencing a new study published in JAMA Health Forum titled Addictive Screen Use Trajectories and Suicidal Behaviors, Suicidal Ideation, and Mental Health in US Youths. The study tracked youth behavior over four years and delivered an unsettling insight: children who struggled to control their use of social media, games, or phones were more likely to show signs of mental distress, including suicidal thoughts and behaviors. — AdamMGrant (@AdamMGrant) The Red Flag Isn't Time; It's Compulsion Grant, whose work has shaped conversations on productivity, purpose, and emotional health, emphasized that it's not merely about counting screen hours. 'We should worry less about time than distress and compulsion,' he wrote. The study backs this up with numbers: around one-third of children showed increasing "addictive" use of phones and social media as they aged, with video games not far behind. These patterns weren't linked just to how long they were on devices—but to how much they felt unable to stop. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Shape your journey in the unforgiving desert world of Arrakis! Shop Now Undo Children with high or increasing compulsive use were found to be more than twice as likely to attempt self-harm than those with lower levels of screen dependency. Moreover, they experienced higher levels of anxiety, sadness, and anger—conditions that alarmingly persisted over time. Design or Disorder? A Heated Debate Online The study triggered intense reactions online, with many users echoing a recurring theme: this isn't just a youth issue.

'Feels like this is more like a global dilemma at this point.' Another chimed in: 'Screens are designed to be addictive. Isn't this like saying ultra-processed food isn't a risk—just the compulsive eating of it?' Indeed, many pointed fingers not only at behavior but also at big tech's intent—highlighting the built-in psychological hooks that keep users, regardless of age, scrolling long after they mean to stop. What This Means for the Future of Mental Health The JAMA study's findings go beyond parenting concerns—they shine a light on how addiction is being redefined in a digital world. It's not the hours on a device but the loss of control that signals a deeper emotional struggle. Grant, known for his work on languishing and emotional regulation, implies this is a teachable moment for both parents and policymakers. 'It boils down to emotional regulation,' a user reflected in response. 'Noticing, understanding, and managing the feeling that makes you do what you do is crucial.'

While the study focuses on adolescents, many agree the findings reflect a broader epidemic. From compulsive doomscrolling to late-night binge-watching, adults are hardly immune. As one commenter noted, 'Are we sure it's just kids struggling with control?' — KevinHenrikson (@KevinHenrikson) In Grant's words, it's not time, it's torment. And it may be time we all look up from our screens—not just to monitor our kids, but to check in with ourselves.

Telangana nursing colleges may soon offer Japanese to meet overseas caregiver demand
HYDERABAD: In a bid to tap into the growing demand for skilled caregivers in Japan, chief minister A Revanth Reddy has recently proposed introducing Japanese as an optional subject in govt nursing colleges across Telangana. The move aims to equip students with language skills to work in Japan, where the need for nursing professionals is rapidly rising due to an ageing population and low birth rate. A recent study published in ScienceDirect estimates that by 2025, Japan will require 19.6 to 20.6 lakh nursing professionals, facing a shortfall of 3 to 13 lakh. The gap is mainly due to older caregivers retiring and fewer young people entering the profession. At a recent review meeting, the CM highlighted that Japan is already recruiting nurses from states like Rajasthan and Meghalaya and expressed confidence that Telangana can become a key contributor. "This is a great opportunity for our nurses," said PV Nanda Kumar Reddy, vice-chancellor of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences, Warangal. "Japan offers better pay and quality of life. Compared to Gulf countries, where work conditions are often tough, Japan is far more favourable. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo " You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad Nanda Kumar Reddy emphasised the need to recruit qualified Japanese language trainers to roll out the programme. A senior official from the directorate of medical education (DME), Sultan Bazar, confirmed the plan is in the early stages and a formal proposal will be submitted soon. Since 2021, Japan has been hiring Indian nurses under the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) programme through a bilateral MoU. Telangana Overseas Manpower Company (TOMCOM) has trained and placed 31 nurses in Japanese hospitals so far, with two more batches undergoing training at National Institute of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Gachibowli. "The training spans six to seven months and includes language, culture, and workplace preparation. Before departure, they must pass language proficiency and nursing competency test at the embassy," said Shabna Sheikh, manager at TOMCOM. Japan offers a five-year visa, extendable further. Students from auxiliary nurse midwife, paramedical and intermediate backgrounds are also eligible. "This initiative will also help nurses connect better with Japanese patients. Those placed earn well and many have cleared debts and even built homes," said Laxman Rudavath, joint secretary, Telangana Nurses Association. "It's about delivering care with empathy and cultural understanding."
