    Autism spectrum in adults has commonly overlooked symptoms, experts warn
    One in 36 children in the United States has autism, according to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) but many dont learn theyre on the spectrum until adulthood.Those who grow up without a diagnosis can experience symptoms that are overlooked or misunderstood.One in every 45 adults in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), according to Autism Speaks, a national nonprofit for autism awareness.CANCER DRUG COULD DOUBLE AS AUTISM THERAPY, AND IS POISED FOR FDA APPROVALAlthough theres a current uptick in autism advocacy and education, there are likely "many adults" who never received a diagnosis or were misdiagnosed, the New Jersey-headquartered organization states on its website.If you think you or someone you love may be on the spectrum, heres what autism can look like in adults.ASD is defined by challenges with social communication and the presence of restricted or repetitive behaviors, according to the American Psychiatric Association.Some "hallmarks of autism" in adults as highlighted by Autism Speaks include feeling awkward in social situations, having difficulty understanding the feelings or thoughts of others, preferring to be alone, struggling with making friends and having trouble understanding social rules.RISING AUTISM RATES NOW AFFECT 3% OF CHILDREN, SAYS CDC REPORTSome verbal and non-verbal communication cues can include struggling with eye contact, responding in a "blunt way" or taking things literally.Repetitive or restrictive behaviors such as following the same routine every day, noticing small details that others wouldnt, and having "very intense and specific interests" are also signs of potential autism, according to the same source.Adults with autism may not display every characteristic, and behaviors and interests may change with age.BILL GATES LIKELY HAD AUTISM AS A CHILD, HE REVEALS: WASNT WIDELY UNDERSTOOD'Major life changes such as college moves, career transitions or changes in family status (like marriage, births, divorce or death) can cause symptoms to shift."Masking" is a term used in the autism community to describe the way an autistic individual hides symptoms to "fit in" and to avoid drawing attention in social situations.Some autistic people choose to mask to avoid bullying, maintain friendships and succeed at work or school, says Autism Speaks.It's possible to mask without even recognizing its happening, as some people adopt "subtle stimming behaviors," such as using fidget toys.Imitating the speech or body language of others during a conversation is another form of masking, along with forcing eye contact or facial expressions, which may feel unnatural.Masking can help autistic adults navigate daily interactions, but research has shown it can have negative effects on mental health, as it can lead to feelings of isolation and exhaustion, Autism Speaks reports.Autistic girls and women have been found to be more socially adaptive than boys and men with the disorder, making them more likely to mask, according to research.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported that autism is about three times more common in boys than girls.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTERAlisha Simpson-Watt, a licensed clinical social worker, board-certified behavior analyst and founder of Collaborative ABA Services, said that masking often begins in childhood and can become "so ingrained that it feels like second nature."This can lead to many women going undiagnosed until adulthood."Cultural expectations also play a role, as girls are often socialized to be more accommodating, emotionally expressive or socially attuned, which can further obscure signs of autism," the Connecticut-based expert told Fox News Digital.ASD is a spectrum, which means symptoms can vary widely from one person to the next, said Simpson-Watt."While the core features remain the same, there are differences in social communication and repetitive behaviors," she said. "How the characteristics present can differ across individuals."Recognizing the "diversity of the spectrum" is key, Simpson-Watt emphasized. "Autism doesnt look the same in everyone, and understanding this can help more adults get the support and validation they need."For adults who believe they may have undiagnosed autism, the expert said it's important to "trust your instincts" and consider getting a formal evaluation.For more Health articles, visitfoxnews.com/health"Start by speaking with your primary care physician or checking with your insurance provider for a list of qualified professionals who diagnose autism in adults," she advised."Note that some insurance plans may have age-related restrictions on coverage for autism evaluations, so its helpful to start the process as early as possible."

    Legendary sports radio host rips Jets' Aaron Glenn for dancing during critical play
    New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn went viral over the weekend when he sprinted and danced his way down the sideline as the team took the lead against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a blocked field goal returned for touchdown by linebacker Will McDonald IV.Glenns dance became the new meme, at least for a brief moment as a handful of social media users putting an Earth, Wind & Fire song underneath the grooves.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMHowever, it was all for naught. Baker Mayfield led the Buccaneers offense down the field and Chase McLaughlin kicked the game-winning field goal. Tampa Bay improved to 3-0 on the year while New York fell to 0-3.Glenns dancing didnt appear to win over legendary New York City sports radio host Mike Francesa."I dont need a cheerleader on the sideline. I dont need one of these coaches who runs up and down with his team like hes still playing," he said on his Bet Rivers podcast. "Youre not playing anymore. Use your brain. Youre there to coach. Youre not playing.COWBOYS OWNER JERRY JONES SAYS MICAH PARSONS WON'T RECEIVE TRIBUTE VIDEO AS PACKERS HEAD TO DALLAS IN WEEK 4"So, I dont need you jumping around and running around the sideline when your team finally makes a play. That is a coach who doesnt know what the hell hes doing. I want the guy whos there thinking about the next play."Glenn made clear that his team isnt the "same old Jets" and were going to fight to the bitter end."You just said were 0-3, were 0-3. How many more games do we have left? That speaks for itself," he said Sunday. "We have a lot of games to go play and you can build on this, you can build on this. The one thing I dont do, which I understand that New York media tries to do, is the negative parts of it, but Im not going to be that way."Im going to let you guys deal with that. Were going to let you guys deal with that. Were going to look at the things that we did well and were going to continue to push forward because were going to improve, and were going to make sure that we get over that hump I do know that."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Google to reinstate banned YouTube accounts censored for political speech
    FIRST ON FOX: Google vowed on Tuesday to offer YouTube accounts that were permanently banned for political speech the ability to be reinstated, and the big tech giant admitted that it once faced pressure from the Biden administration to remove content about COVID-19.Google detailed its remarkable shift in a document, first obtained by Fox News Digital, that a lawyer for the company provided to the House Judiciary Committee.The new policy from Google, also known by its parent company Alphabet, could affect both average users and well-known figures like FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, White House counterterrorism chief Sebastian Gorka and War Room podcast host Steve Bannon, all of whom were permanently banned in recent years for COVID-19 or election-related content."Reflecting the Companys commitment to free expression, YouTube will provide an opportunity for all creators to rejoin the platform if the company terminated their channels for repeated violations of COVID-19 and elections integrity policies that are no longer in effect," the lawyer representing Google wrote.CNN REPORTER SAYS LIBERALS SHOULD 'ACTIVELY ACKNOWLEDGE' THEIR ROLE IN CANCEL CULTUREBongino ended his conservative radio show, which livestreamed on Rumble, when he joined the administration this year. He has attributed his popularity on that platform to permanently losing his YouTube account in 2022. YouTube permanently banned Bongino, who had one of the most followed accounts on the platform, for spreading what it said was COVID-19 misinformation about masks.The document from Google also noted that YouTube "values conservative voices on its platform" and acknowledged that the creators "have extensive reach and play an important role in civic discourse."The document included a section about the Biden administration and said White House officials at the time pushed Google behind the scenes to remove perceived misinformation related to COVID-19. The lawyer for Google also noted that the big tech platform censored content independently of the Biden administration based on its internal policies but that the company has since rolled back those policies."Senior Biden Administration officials, including White House officials, conducted repeated and sustained outreach to Alphabet and pressed the Company regarding certain user-generated content related to the COVID-19 pandemic that did not violate its policies," the lawyer wrote.The administration "created a political atmosphere that sought to influence the actions of platforms based on their concerns regarding misinformation," the lawyer added.Fox News Digital reached out to Google for comment.Google's revelations came in response to a yearslong Republican-led investigation by the committee into big tech companies, including Google, that censored and suppressed content on their platforms related to COVID-19, the 2020 election and Hunter Biden.YouTubes posture follows Meta similarly shifting last year toward denouncing the Biden administrations pressure tactics and welcoming more voices onto its platform.Meta revealed at the time that it was doing away with third-party fact-checkers. YouTube has not used outside fact-checkers and vowed that it "will not empower fact-checkers to take action on or label content" on the platform.Parallel to the congressional investigations was a lawsuit brought by two Republican attorneys general over social media censorship. Discovery in that case largely mirrored what the committee uncovered. The Supreme Court ultimately did not decide on the merits of the case, Murthy v. Missouri, and instead found that the plaintiffs lacked standing to bring it. But the lower courts had largely sided with the plaintiffs, including a judge who found the federal government seemed to have "assumed a role similar to an Orwellian Ministry of Truth.'"The high courts decision disappointed Republicans, who had hoped for a landmark ruling that social media companies censorship practices violate the First Amendment. The case also explored jawboning, which involves the government pressuring private companies to censor their speech.WHITE HOUSE WORKED WITH YOUTUBE TO CENSOR COVID-19 AND VACCINE MISINFORMATION: HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEEThe term jawboning has resurfaced in the wake of Charlie Kirks death, after ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel suggested on his show that the suspect Tyler Robinson was a member of the "MAGA gang." Authorities have said Robinson felt Kirk spread hate and that he engraved his bullet casings with gamer-inspired antifascist messaging.Kimmel also repeatedly expressed sympathies for Kirks family and condemned the shooting. Still, ABC and owners of its affiliate stations suspended Kimmels show. ABC lifted its suspension beginning Tuesday, but one of the affiliate owners, Sinclair Broadcast Group, said it will continue to replace Kimmel with other programming.Concerns with jawboning arose because Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr made a veiled threat about Kimmels remarks ahead of ABC pulling him off air. The FCC has regulatory authority over broadcasting networks, including ABC, but still must abide by the First Amendment."Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way," Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson. "These companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or theres going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."

The second stop of the tour was last Thursday at Colorado State University, where a vigil was held instead.The renamed tours next stop is Wednesday night at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia.

    Rachel Maddow presses Kamala Harris on her passing on Buttigieg for VP over concerns about his sexuality
    MSNBC host Rachel Maddow pressed former Vice President Kamala Harris Monday about former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who she saw as too big a "risk" to choose as her running mate in 2024 due to his being gay."I guess Id ask you to just elaborate on that a little bit. Its hard to hear. With you running, as, youre the first woman elected vice president. Youre a Black woman and a South Asian woman elected to that high office, very nearly elected president. To say that he couldnt be on the ticket effectively because he was gay, its hard to hear," Maddow said of Buttigieg.Harris wrote in her new book, "107 Days," that Buttigieg "would have been an ideal partner if I were a straight White man."The former Democratic presidential candidate responded, "That's not what I said, that he couldn't be on the ticket because he is gay."KAMALA HARRIS BREAKS SILENCE ON BIDEN DROPOUT, ADMITS SHE HAS REGRETS ABOUT HER HANDLING OF SITUATION"My point is, as I write in the book, is that, I was clear that in 107 days, in one of the most hotly contested elections for President of the United States against someone like Donald Trump, who knows no floor to be a Black woman running for President of the United States, and as a vice presidential running mate, a gay man. With the stakes being so high, it made me very sad. But I also realized it would be a real risk," Harris continued.She said she was an ally of the LGBTQ community her whole life and said it was not due to any "prejudice" on her part."We had such a short period of time. And the stakes were so high. I think Pete is a phenomenal, phenomenal public servant," she said.Harris ultimately tapped Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who wound up attracting negative headlines for the campaign over past misleading statements about his military record.KAMALA HARRIS' NOD TO PETE BUTTIGIEG TEES UP POTENTIAL 2028 RUN: DNC VICE CHAIR"And I think America is and would be ready for that. But when I had to make that decision with two weeks to go, ou know, and maybe I was being too cautious, you know, Ill let our friends, we should all talk about that. Maybe I was, but thats the decision I made. And Im, as with everything else in the book, I'm being very candid about that, with a great deal of sadness about also the fact that it might have been a risk," the former VP continued.Harris also called President Donald Trump a "tyrant" during the interview.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE"Democracy sustains capitalism. Capitalism thrives in a democracy. And right now, we are dealing with as I called him at my speech on the ellipse a tyrant. We used to compare the strength of our democracy to communist dictators. That's what we're dealing with right now under Donald Trump. And these titans of industry are not speaking up," she said, referring to American CEOs, who she argued capitulated to the president.

    Rapid rise of AI puts new urgency on Congress to unleash American energy
    The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence is putting newfound urgency in the push for Congress to streamline the permitting process for new energy projects.Permitting reform, which refers to efforts to streamline the approval of new energy projects, is one of the rare issues in Congress that still has bipartisan backing.But the exact details and scale of permitting reform, including deregulatory efforts, have been subject to contentious debate."What we're seeing right now in China is a historic build-out of their grid. Of course, adding nuclear, adding a lot more oil and gas, but in addition to that, they're adding a lot of coal as well. That is a country that is really focused on using all the energy that they have to build out, to supply the AI future and a growing citizenship," Mike Sommers, CEO of the American Petroleum Institute (API), told Fox News Digital.HOUSE PASSES TRUMP-BACKED PLAN TO AVERT GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN"What we don't see at the federal level or at the state level in the United States is that same kind of effort. And the first key to that is to get a permitting reform bill done that gives our private sector the ability to actually build things."Global electricity demand for AI data centers is projected to double between 2022 and 2026, according to the International Energy Agency.In the U.S. alone, AI data centers accounted for more than 4% of all U.S. electricity use in 2023, according to the Electric Power Research Institute, and could more than double to 9% by 2030. One AI data center could use as much power as 50,000 U.S. households.It's part of what's driving the House Committee on Natural Resources to advance bipartisan legislation, led by Chair Bruce Westerman, R-Ark., and Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine, to make the permitting process easier."We're seeing unprecedented demand for electricity in particular. It was kind of flat. And now the year-over-year increase, we're seeing a three-fold uptick in the demand for electricity. And the numbers that I'm being told almost seem irrational like a data center that's close to my districtthey're talking about three gigabytes of power from one data center," Westerman told Fox News Digital."To put that in perspective, I've got nuclear power plants in my district, each reactor is a gigabyte. So you're talking about three nuclear reactors to power one data center."He said the U.S. has "gotten way behind the eight-ball in being able to meet the demands that are out there."Sommers warned that a failure to act soon could lead to skyrocketing costs for everyday Americans."If we can't figure out a way to get more energy on the grid, when we expect energy demand to go up by 35 to 40% by 2040, consumers are going to revolt," he said. "And if they revolt, what that means is that there's going to be fewer data centers, fewer investments in AI, and that makes America at an economic disadvantage to China."Earlier this month, API released a policy roadmap with recommendations for Congress to create "durable, comprehensive solutions that cut red tape, sets clear deadlines and provides legal certainty" in unleashing American energy, according to a memo viewed by Fox News Digital.OLD SMARTPHONES ARE BEING TURNED INTO TINY DATA CENTERSSommers also described a "full-throated effort" by API to get their plan into lawmakers' hands, including in-person advocacy on Capitol Hill and a "major seven-figure" advertising campaign inside Washington."We're not seeing a crisis now, but there is a crisis coming. And if we can get permanent reform done now, it'll clear the way for that dominance in both energy and in AI that's going to be required if we're going to win the future," he said.Meanwhile, the current U.S. energy grid and permitting process was not designed to take the skyrocketing use of AI into account, Westerman said."It was done 50-some odd years ago, when it was put in place," he said.The Arkansas Republican conceded the National Environmental Protection Act and other similar pieces of legislation were critical when they were passed in the early 1970s."All of those were put in place with the right motives, but over time, they've been weaponized and politicized, where they're used more to stop projects than they are to benefit the environment," Westerman said. "I contend that we're hurting the environment by having a poor permitting process."He emphasized, however, that any solution needs to be bipartisan, pointing to the Senate's 60-vote threshold for any successful legislation."There's a lot that agree it needs changing, and the challenge is to find out where we all agree on the same things, how it needs to be changed," Westerman said. "I think for the benefit of the country, we have to work together in a bipartisan manner."

    Priscilla Presley says Elvis wanted to hire hit man to kill her karate instructor lover
    Priscilla Presley is airing out all her good and bad laundry in her latest memoir, "Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis Presley."In the book, which was obtained by Fox News Digital, Priscilla shared that she had an affair with her karate instructor, Mike Stone, during her marriage to Elvis Presley.She wrote that "ironically," she began taking karate lessons to impress her husband after learning about Elvis' infidelity from reading handwritten letters by other women."When I turned the key in the mailbox, however, what poured out wasnt bills or junk mail. The mailbox was stuffed full of letters from girls. I finally held written proof of what Id always feared. I was deeply hurt, but I was also furious. I called Elvis and demanded an explanation. When that tactic failed, he resorted to saying the girls were all lying.""This time, though, turning the tables didnt work. If Elvis was having affairs that were none of my business, then it was none of his business what I was doing. The close friendship that Mike and I had developed turned into an affair," she wrote.PRISCILLA PRESLEY DENIES INVOLVEMENT IN ELVIS' DEATH FOLLOWING $50M LAWSUIT ACCUSATIONSDuring an interview with Today, Priscilla opened up about those letters and said there were "too many of us" in her marriage."They would go and meet Elvis at the house on weekends when he went, and it was another life. Now, he would come home great and wonderful. He was still a good husband, but it was just too many of us," she said on Monday.According to Priscilla, the affair enraged Elvis so much he contemplated hiring an assassin to kill Stone."Elvis found the thought of me with another man unbearable. In the weeks after my departure, he told the guys that Mike had to die. He even asked Joe [Esposito] to find a hit man," she wrote, referring to Elvis' longtime road manager who was also famously known as a member of the "Memphis Mafia," according to Priscilla.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"Joe warned me to be careful. When I offered to bring Lisa [Marie Presley] to Vegas for one of Elviss shows, Joe advised against it. Seeing me might set Elvis off. Over time, and with a lot of persuasion from his father and the guys, Elvis gradually calmed down and gave up the idea of killing Mike, thank God," she wrote.Priscilla met Elvis in 1959 when she was 14 and the star was serving in the army in Germany. The pair were married from 1967 to 1973. The former couple welcomed one child during their marriage, Lisa Marie.In her book, Priscilla mentioned that Elvis "forced" himself on her after he learned of the affair. She made it clear that this wasn't the reason she decided to file for divorce in 1972."I didnt leave because of Mike Stone. And I didnt leave because Elvis had forced himself on me when he found out about Mike. He had not. Elvis had felt emasculated. Hed needed to prove to himself and to me that he could make love like a real man, the way he imagined a karate master doing it.""Elvis made love to me forcefully, not forcibly. His usual tenderness and consideration for me were missing. It was emotionally hurtful, and it left me with an unhappy memory of my last experience of sexual intimacy with Elvis. But it was not the reason I left," she wrote.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERShe told the British talk show, Loose Women, years ago that she didn't divorce the King of Pop because she didn't love him."I did not divorce him because I didn't love him hewas the love of my life, truly. If anything, I left because I needed to find out what the world was like," Priscilla said in 2016.After the divorce, Lisa Marie primarily lived with her mother. "I wanted to keep the family together as much as I could. One way or another, I made sure she saw her daddy," she wrote in her memoir.Several years after the divorce, Elvis died at 42 from a heart attack. During an interview with People, Priscilla addressed conspiracy theories that Elvis is still alive. "Theres been so much thats untruthful out there things like Elvis is still alive and hidden somewhere. I wish he was still alive," she told the outlet.Priscilla's "Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis Presley" will be available on Sept. 23.
