College Basketball Player in Indiana Pays Off Sister's Student Loans in Thoughtful Christmas Gift
There is a saying that family comes first in Hoosier Nation. Now, a heartwarming story from Indiana has emerged on social media which further bolsters this saying. Indiana University basketball player Anthony Leal has won the hearts of netizens with his thoughtful Christmas gift to his sister Lauren Leal. Anthony used his own earnings to pay off the student loan debt of her beloved sister. Anthony posted about his touching gesture on Twitter. He also shared the video of the moment her sister got to know about her Christmas gift. In the video, Lauren can be seen opening a card from her brother.
In the card to Lauren, Anthony wrote a touching note which is captured in the video: “Hey sis, I wanted to let you know how much I look up to you and admire who you are. Your soul is beautiful, and you are the best role model ever. There is no doubt that I have made it to where I am today because of you. Someone like you deserves no burdens or restrictions in life, and I feel like the best way to help you with that is by paying off your student loan debt.”

The US Department of Agriculture has approved the first-ever vaccine for honeybees!
Yes, you read that correctly. The vaccine protects against American
foulbrood disease, a fatal bacterial disease that can destroy honeybee
colonies -- and thus threaten ecosystems that depend on the bees' myriad
ecological benefits. While it's amusing to imagine a bunch of bee
clinics with tiny little syringes and Band-Aids, there's a much more
practical way of administering this type of vaccine. It’s mixed into
“queen feed,” which the worker bees consume. The worker bees incorporate
the vaccine into royal jelly, which they feed to the queen bee. Once
the queen bee has consumed the vaccine-laden royal jelly, her offspring
will all be immune as well.
