Several royal experts believe that any hopes of a royal reconciliation between King Charles and Prince Harry can be forgotten.The king, 76, and queen, 77, will arrive in Canada on May 26 and depart on May 27. And while the couple will be on the same continent as the Duke of Sussex, who lives in California, there are reportedly no plans for father and son to have a heartfelt reunion behind closed doors.Fox News Digital reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment.KING CHARLES, PRINCE HARRYS PAINFUL FEUD DAMAGING MONARCHS REIGN AS GUTTED SON REMAINS FURIOUS: EXPERT"Prince Harry is the kings flesh and blood, so of course he would like some sort of reconciliation with his youngest son," British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard claimed to Fox News Digital."However, its been over five years since Megxit, and still, Prince Harry is full of animosity," Chard claimed. "Prince Harry has blown all trust and any reconciliation with his father and the royal family for the moment."On May 2nd, Harrys rift with the royal family burst into the open once more when he gave a raw television interview to the BBC after losing a court case over his security.In a long and, at times, emotional conversation, the 40-year-old said he wants reconciliation, but his father wont speak to him because of "this security stuff," a legal wrangle over protection for the prince when he is in Britain."This, at the heart of it, is a family dispute," he said.Harry has been estranged from his family since he and his wife, MeghanMarkle, stepped back as senior royals in 2020 and moved to the U.S., alleging hostility and racist attitudes by the press and royal establishment. Harrys 2023 tell-all memoir, "Spare," stuffed with private details and embarrassing revelations, made things worse.Sources close to the prince previously claimed to People magazine that the king, who was diagnosed with cancer in February 2024, wont respond to Harrys letters or calls.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERBritish royal expert Hilary Fordwich claimed to Fox News Digital that it was always "extremely unlikely" that the king would have met with Harry during his Canada visit."Harry has destroyed any trust with his public airing of grievances in his security dispute, as this is a constitutional matter," Fordwich explained."King Charles cannot have a private conversation with his wayward son without the fear of Harry revealing to the media the content of such a private family discussion," Fordwich claimed. "There is no sign of reconciliation. Harrys statements reflect a sense of resignation regarding the lamentable state of their relationship, which remains deeply fractured.""Harry has willingly and knowingly caused pain and public damage via his actions, so the royal family views him as a loose cannon, hence their reluctance to engage with him further," Fordwich claimed. "In particular, his public comments regarding his fathers health and security were viewed as highly inappropriate, as well as counterproductive."However, some royal experts believe there are more practical reasons why the king would skip a meeting with his son."Its certainly tempting to imagine a spontaneous reunion," Shannon Felton Spence, a former British public affairs official, told Fox News Digital.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"But royal trips especially those abroad are planned with military precision, often months in advance," she pointed out. "Every moment is accounted for, every engagement tightly choreographed, and every detail managed with the gravitas of a diplomatic mission. These are not the kinds of trips where one can simply pop down for a personal visit, no matter how close the geography may seem.""While the proximity may raise eyebrows physical closeness doesnt always translate to meaningful contact," Felton Spence shared. "Whether the king and his son will find a moment to connect remains to be seen, but its likely less a snub and more a reflection of the constraints and priorities that define royal travel."Royal expert Ian Pelham Turner agreed."It would set a precedent for them changing plans at the last minute," Turner told Fox News Digital. "Protocol and planning are set for any overseas visit months in advance. Unless there are extenuating circumstances, then they are set in stone."Charles made his first official visit to Canada in 1970, People magazine reported. He most recently visited the country in 2022 with Queen Camilla to celebrate Queen Elizabeth IIs Platinum Jubilee.Still, several royal experts argued that if the king had planned to meet with Harry, it would have leaked to the press. Harry himself has spoken about his fathers condition as Buckingham Palace gives infrequent updates.WATCH: PRINCE HARRY LOOKING TO RECONCILE WITH KING CHARLES, ROYAL FAMILYHarry has met his father only once, briefly, since his diagnosis."I dont know how much longer my father has," Harry told the BBC.But Harry said that whats souring the relationship now is a decision to remove his police protection detail after he stopped being a working royal. The Court of Appeal in London rejected Harrys bid to restore the protection, saying a government committee was justified in deciding that security should be assessed on a case-by-case basis whenever Harry visits the U.K.He suggested that his father was part of the problem, saying that he had asked the king "to step out of the way and let the experts do their job."Harrys memoir scattered bitterness, blaming his father, stepmother and his elder brother Prince William, heir to the British throne. Still, he told the BBC that he could forgive his family."I would love reconciliation with my family. Theres no point in continuing to fight anymore," said Harry.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSChard argued that if Harry were to "show humility" and do the reverse apologize to his father - tensions could ease with "certain members of his family.""His actions have created significant damage to the institution, leading to a broader discussion about the future of the monarchy," said Chard. "[After he apologizes], only then will King Charles endeavor to arrange a private meet-up with his son, away from prying eyes and ears.""Is Prince Harry stuck in a cycle of grief? He certainly seems unhappy," Chard reflected. "For a meeting to take place, Harry needs to move on from the stage where life is not fair, learn to listen, accept responsibility and stop his unscrupulous behavior, blaming his family for everything. Accepting the reality that he hasnt won certain cases and moving on will also do him the world of good.""Harry would have everything to gain by flying to meet with his father [privately] as his words have indicated he needs and wants reconciliation," added Fordwich.Harry claimed that he and his family are endangered when visiting Britain because of hostility aimed at him and Meghan on social media and through relentless hounding by the U.K. press.He and Meghan are raising their two young children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, in California. Harry admitted he "cant see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the U.K.""Its really quite sad that I wont be able to show my children my homeland," he said.

Hillary Clinton is back and doing what she does best: trashing women. She wants to make sure we know that the basket of deplorables is also sexist.During a conversation at the 92nd Street Y in New York City last month, Clinton was asked by Margaret Hoover, host of "Firing Line" on PBS, if she had any advice for the eventual first female president of the United States.Clinton took this opportunity to take a swipe at Republican women. "Well, first of all, dont be a handmaiden to the patriarchy, which kind of eliminates every woman on the other side of the aisle, except for very few."HILLARY CLINTON BASHES REPUBLICAN WOMEN, SAYS GOP FEMALE PRESIDENT WOULD BE 'HANDMAIDEN TO THE PATRIARCHY'Most Republican women are just "handmaidens to the patriarchy," just there to support the men, according to her. Would Hillary Clinton ever do such a thing?Clinton first rose to prominence because her husband was governor of Arkansas and then president of the United States. On his coattails she later became a U.S. senator from New York. After she ran for president and lost the nomination to Barack Obama, she was appointed Secretary of State, yes, by a man.While president, Bill Clinton carried on an affair with a White House intern and then lied about it under oath. He was impeached by the House of Representatives for perjury and obstructing justice.During the time that he engaged in this cover-up, his wife Hillary was out in front lambasting Republicans for daring to challenge her husband. She coined the phrase "vast rightwing conspiracy" to wave away the charges against him.In later years Hillary denied that Bills relationship with Monica was an abuse of power since Monica was "an adult," despite the fact that he was leader of the free world and she was a recent college graduate doing an internship.BILL CLINTON PREDICTS THAT USA IS LIKELIER TO ELECT A FEMALE IF SHES A CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN WOMANThis wasnt the only time Hillary Clinton snuggled right up to the patriarchy. When Bill Clinton was running for president in 1992, he was dogged by accusations he had had a longtime affair with Gennifer Flowers. Hillary Clinton, no girls girl, denied that her husband would do such a thing and added "You know, Im not sitting here, some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette." It wasnt enough to defend her husband. Hillary had to take a shot at women who made the same choice she would end up making, to stand by her man. Criticizing other women to defend a man, is there anything more patriarchal?Her husband wasnt the only man Hillary Clinton would protect and defend in this way. In a New York Times story after Harvey Weinstein was exposed as a sexual predator, two well-known women said that they warned Hillary Clintons team about her close relationship with Weinstein.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONActress Lena Dunham and magazine publisher Tina Brown both made explicit warnings about Weinstein to Hillary Clintons team during both of her presidential races. After the accusations against Weinstein became public, Hillarys team issued a statement hitting back at Dunham specifically for contacting them instead of going to authorities, noting "Only she can answer why she would tell them instead of those who could stop him."Some champion of women.Hillary doesnt like when women wont do as they are told. In 2018, still bitter over her drubbing in the 2016 presidential election by Donald Trump, Clinton saidwomen who didnt vote for her were just doing the bidding of the men in their lives. "We do not do well with white men and we dont do well with married, white women," Clinton said. "And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should." It couldnt be that women had considered her candidacy and found it wanting. According to her, it must be that men had told these women how to vote.Hillary always took swipes at women so her latest comments are nothing new. The eventual female president should consider not using women as a punching bag to attain her goals. Thankfully, that president wont be Hillary Clinton.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM KAROL MARKOWICZ

Memorial Day should make you a little uncomfortable. Because sacrifice should never be comfortable. But from that discomfort can come gratitude. And from gratitude, a commitment to live betternot in guilt, but in honor.And yet sadly, for most Americans, it merely marks the start of summer. Its beach chairs and burgers, sales and three-day weekendsa reprieve from work with little thought given to the sacrifice this day was meant to honor. But for those of us whove stood on foreign soil, witness to teammates who never came home, Memorial Day is a hauntingbut beautiful reckoning we face each year.Theres a harsh truth about war that never leaves you: the fallen gave everything in an instantand the living carry it for a lifetime.ON MEMORIAL DAY, LEE GREENWOOD REMEMBERS AMERICA'S HEROES: NEVER TAKE FREEDOM FOR GRANTEDWe, like other generations before us, have lost teammates, more than we care to count, some to bullets and bombs, others to the invisible wounds they carried back with them. Brave souls who gave everythingnot for politics or glorybut for love of country and you. For an ideal, the American ideal of what we stand for and the potential of what we can become. And therein lies the covenant between the living and the fallen: they laid down their lives for a belief, an idealan unbreakable faith in us and our potential to become something greater.This is hard to explain to those who havent served, and we dont blame anyone for that. Less than 1% of Americans serve in the armed forces today. Only about 5% of Americans have ever worn the uniform. Most live free of any direct connection to war. Thats not a condemnationits a consequence of the freedoms we enjoy, protected by those willing to fight and die for them.But that disconnection has made Memorial Day more misunderstood and underappreciated with each passing year.One way to bridge that divide is to listento learn the stories of those who gave everything. This Memorial Day, FOX Nation is releasing a powerful new series, "The Unsung of Arlington," honoring five extraordinary Americans laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery. From John Glenn to Jane Delano, their lives remind us what courage, sacrifice, and unwavering belief in this nation truly look like. The series doesnt just tell their storiesit keeps their legacies alive. If youve ever wondered how to honor the fallen, start by learning who they were.Memorial Day is not about glorifying war. Its about honoring those who gave up everything so the rest of us could live in peace, prosperity, and yescomfort.Its about men and women like Darrik Benson (USN), John Brown (USAF), Shannon Kent (USN), Joshua Wheeler (USA), Edward Smith (USMC), and countless others whose names never made headlines but whose legacies live on in the quiet grief of Gold Star families and the unwavering loyalty of those who fought beside them.Memorial Day is not a celebrationits a remembrance of both their sacrifice and the covenant left upon us. A day when the living should ask themselves one question: Am I living a life worthy of their sacrifice?No one is asking you to feel guilty. They fought so you wouldnt have to. But what they askwhat they hopeis that for one day out of the year, Americans pause to reflect on the cost of the freedoms they so casually enjoy. Reflect on the blessings of safety, security, and opportunity. Reflect on the cost paid by strangers so that your kids can play in the yard without fear.And maybedo something more.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONTeach your kids about the meaning of the day. Toast to the fallen. Or simply take a moment of silencereal silence. That silencethat discomfortis where gratitude begins. And from gratitude comes action.This Memorial Day, enjoy your freedom. But dont forget where it came from.Its not a holiday. Its a headstone.For those of us who came home, for those who never did, and for those who never had to goits a covenant. One that we, as Americans, cannot and must not ever break.Never Forget. Forever Honor.God Bless America.Mike Sarraille is host of the brand-new Fox Nation series "The Unsung of Arlington" available right now onFoxNation.com.Kirk Offel is a former Navy Submariner and Founder/CEO of Overwatch Mission Critical.

Weight-loss medications continue to grow in popularity as an anti-obesity tool but are some more effective than others?The question was explored in a new study published this month in The New England Journal of Medicine.Researchers compared the safety and efficacy of tirzepatide (brand name Zepbound) and semaglutide (brand name Wegovy) in a 72-week clinical trial.WEIGHT-LOSS MEDICATIONS MAY ALSO BENEFIT COMMON MEDICAL PROBLEM, STUDY FINDSThe randomized, controlled trial called SURMOUNT-5 included 751 people throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico who had obesity but not type 2 diabetes."Doctors, insurance companies and patients are always asking, Which drug is more effective?" said Dr. Louis Aronne, director of the Comprehensive Weight Control Center and the Sanford I. Weill Professor of Metabolic Research at Weill Cornell Medicine, in the release. "This study allowed us to do a direct comparison.""The results are consistent with in fact, almost identical to what weve seen in trials in which these drugs were evaluated independently," added Aronne, who was a principal investigator in the trial.The study found that tirzepatide achieved greater weight loss, with participants shedding about 50 pounds (20.2% of their body weight).The group taking semaglutide lost an average of 33 pounds or 13.7% of their baseline weight, according to a press release summarizing the study outcome.Overall, 32% of the people taking tirzepatide lost at least 25% of their body weight; semaglutide users lost around 16%.WEIGHT LOSS, DIABETES DRUGS CAN CAUSE MOOD CHANGES: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT BEHAVIORAL SIDE EFFECTSTirzepatide users also reported a "greater reduction in waist circumference" than those on semaglutide.The likely reason for tirzepatides greater effectiveness is that it uses a "dual mechanism of action," according to Aronne."Whereas semaglutide works by activating receptors for a hormone called glucagon-like peptide 1, or GLP-1, tirzepatide mimics not only GLP-1, but also an additional hormone, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP)," the release stated."Together, these actions reduce hunger, lower blood-glucose levels and affect fat cell metabolism."WEIGHT-LOSS DRUGS IMPACT ON CANCER RISK REVEALED IN NEW STUDYAdditional trials are actively exploring whether tirzepatide also reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke, a benefit that has been linked to semaglutide.The study, which was led by an investigator at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian, was also conducted with the University of Texas McGovern Medical School, the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, the University College Dublin and Eli Lilly (maker of Zepbound).The participants all received guidance regarding nutrition and exercise.The reported side effects were very similar for the two drugs, with 44% experiencing nausea and 25% having abdominal pain.WEIGHT-LOSS DRUGS TO GET SURPRISING ENDORSEMENT FROM GLOBAL HEALTH GIANTDr. Ada Londono, MD, a board-certified obesity and internal medicine primary care physician with PlushCare a virtual health platform offering primary care, therapy and weight management services said she was not surprised by the study's findings."The results are consistent with prior trials, confirming tirzepatides advantage over semaglutides single GLP-1 action," Londono, who is based in New York City, told Fox News Digital.Beyond weight loss, semaglutide has also shown potential benefits for cardiovascular health, sleep apnea and kidney disease, she noted."These findings highlight the need for continued research to understand tirzepatides broader health impacts," she said. "Its encouraging to see ongoing studies exploring the full potential of GLP-1 medications beyond weight management."Londono pointed out that these treatments can come with side effects.SEMAGLUTIDE FOUND TO HAVE SHOCKING BENEFIT FOR LIVER DISEASE PATIENTS IN NEW STUDY"Most people on these medications only report mild symptoms, but some have experienced more serious reactions, such as pancreatitis," she told Fox News Digital."This underscores the importance of reviewing your medical history and discussing any concerns with your healthcare provider."The study did have some limitations chiefly that it was not a blinded analysis and participants knew which medication they were receiving. This could introduce some level of bias, the researchers acknowledged.Londono pointed out that while the studys findings are "promising," it was funded by Eli Lilly, the manufacturer of Zepbound."This may raise questions about potential conflicts of interest," she said. "Additionally, the open-label design and 72-week duration may limit objectivity and long-term insight."While the study primarily looked at the impact of the medications, experts agreed that there are other factors that play a role in successful weight management."Weight loss is biological, but its also emotional, and whole-person support can make the difference between short-term results and sustainable health," Dr. Rekha Kumar, chief medical officer at the weight care program Found and a practicing endocrinologist in New York City, told Fox News Digital.Kumar emphasized the importance of working with a physician to choose a weight-loss medication that matches the patients personal goals and health status."For example, if a patient has fatty liver, we will choose the GLP-1 that is proven to work best for liver disease," she said.Looking ahead, the researchers plan to investigate new versions of weight-loss drugs, including retatrutide, which mimics the hormones GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, according to the release.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER"Even though drugs like tirzepatide and semaglutide work really well, better than anything we have ever seen, we still have people who don't respond to them," said Aronne."So, moving forward, we want to keep trying to do better."A spokesperson from Novo Nordisk, the company that makes Wegovy (semaglutide), sent the below statement to Fox News Digital."Across the respective clinical trial programs and in SURMOUNT-5, both Wegovy and Zepbound have demonstrated clinically significant weight reduction. It is important to recognize that the comprehensive management of obesity goes beyond weight reduction alone."For more Health articles, visitwww.foxnews.com/healthThe spokesperson also pointed out that in a previous trial, adults with obesity or overweight who took Wegovy along with diet and exercise had lost an average of 15.2% of their weight (~35 pounds) at the two-year mark, compared with 2.6% (~6 pounds) for patients taking a placebo.

President Donald Trump last week announced he would normalize U.S. relations with Syria by lifting decades-old sanctions, and he became the first American president to meet with the leader of the Middle Eastern nation in 25 years a move that some have seen as an indirect hit on Iran.The news was a surprising shift from Trumps prior position in which he said in a December post that "Syria is a mess, but is not ourfriend, & THE UNITED STATES SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT."Trumps change of posture is a gamble that could see serious gains regarding regional stability and securing U.S. interests by deterring Iranian influence, explained Behnam Ben Taleblu, Iran expert and senior fellow with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.US AMBASSADOR BARRACK NAMED SPECIAL ENVOY TO SYRIA AMID SANCTIONS RELIEF PLAN"This is what I call a high-risk, high-reward gamble, but one that, if achieved successfully, can actually prevent Syria from being a launching pad for more Iranian malign activity," Ben Taleblu told Fox News Digital. "But if it fails, . . . Washington would have ended up empowering a jihadist government in Damascus [that] does not have full control over its own territory."The December collapse of the Bashar al-Assad regime following the takeover by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a former al-Qaeda affiliate, not only signified an end to a decades-long oppressive regime, it also effectively dismantled years of Iranian investment in a major setback to its regional influence. Trump emphasized that this sanctions relief, which he argued will give the country a chance to recover and was soon followed by an EU order to lift sanctions, is a move to encourage Syria to normalize diplomatic ties with Israel.But Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, who is also the leader of HTS, which is still a designated terrorist group under the U.S. and the UN, has not officially agreed to pursue diplomatic ties with Jerusalem a push several Middle Eastern nations have flatly rejected amid its aggressive military operations in the Gaza Strip.Trump also emphasized that the new Syrian government needs to suppress the rise of Islamic extremist groups, which Ben Taleblu pointed out is going to be one of the nations chief vulnerabilities as it looks to completely re-establish itself in the world order as trade, business and diplomacy have been reopened to Damascus.IRAN'S KHAMENEI LAUNCHES BLISTERING ATTACK ON TRUMP AFTER MIDDLE EAST VISIT"Tehran traditionally responds to these sorts of things with patience. The Islamic Republic has an ideological view of the way the region should be oriented, and has put time, money, resources, blood and treasure towards that," Ben Taleblu said.The Iran-expert explained that Tehran is waiting for the U.S. and Israel to loosen its pressure on the regime and its proxies, "and for Washington and Jerusalem to make mistakes in the region as they try to push towards bigger-picture things like flipping Syria or regional peace and stability.""And it is there that in the interim, while Washington focuses up on building up states that Tehran will focus on building up proxies and partners," he added.Syria is not a united nation as conflict persists across the country between varying minority groups, former regime loyalists and terrorist organizations like ISIS.Secretary of State Macro Rubio also warned lawmakers on Tuesday that Syria could be just "weeks" away from a"potential collapse and a full-scale civil war of epic proportions."These fractures pose a significant vulnerability for the new Syrian government."Whenever there is a downtrodden or dispossessed person in a war zone or in a conflict zone, that is Tehran's angle of entry back into a conflict," Ben Taleblu said. "This has been Irans strategy, sitting and waiting and looking to exploit opportunities across the entire northern tier of the Middle East, from Iraq to Syria to Lebanon."Exploiting disarray is a specialty of the Islamic Republic," he warned.The expert explained that if the Trump administration wants to ensure that Iran is unable to exploit vulnerable populations in Syria, then it will need to press Damascus to address the sweeping concerns facing various groups across the country.Though the president, and his constituents, notoriously opposed nation-building, which could spell trouble for the long-term security of Syria as it sits in Irans shadow."Tehran is going to be playing the long game. It's going to be running the clock when it comes to American and Israeli patience for what the future regional order could look like," Ben Taleblu warned.

Autonomous delivery robots are already starting to change the way goods move around cities and warehouses, but most still need humans to load and unload their cargo. That's where LEVA comes in. Developed by engineers and designers from ETH Zurich and other Swiss universities, LEVA is a robot that can not only navigate tricky environments but also lift and carry heavy boxes all on its own, making deliveries smoother and more efficient.Join the FREE "CyberGuy Report": Get my expert tech tips, critical security alerts and exclusive deals, plus instant access to myfree "Ultimate Scam Survival Guide" when you sign up!Most delivery robots either roll on wheels or walk on legs, but LEVA combines both. It has four legs, and each leg ends with a motorized, steerable wheel. This means on smooth surfaces like sidewalks, LEVA can roll quickly and efficiently, almost like a little car. When it encounters stairs, curbs or rough ground, it locks its wheels and walks or climbs like a four-legged animal. This unique design lets LEVA handle both flat urban streets and uneven terrain with ease.RICE-SIZED ROBOT COULD MAKE BRAIN SURGERY SAFER AND LESS INVASIVELEVA uses a mix of GPS, lidar sensors and five cameras placed around its body to understand its surroundings. These tools help it navigate city streets or indoor hallways while avoiding obstacles. One camera even looks downward to help LEVA line itself up perfectly when it's time to pick up or drop off cargo.DRIVERLESS BIG-RIG ROBOTRUCKS ARE NOW ON THE ROAD IN THIS STATEWhat really sets LEVA apart is its ability to load and unload cargo boxes without any human help. It spots a standard cargo box, moves right over it, lowers itself by bending its legs and then locks onto the box using powered hooks underneath its body. After securing the box, LEVA lifts itself back up and carries the load to its destination. It can handle boxes weighing up to 187 pounds, which is pretty impressive for a robot of its size.CHINESE HUMANOID ROBOT WITH EAGLE EYE VISION AND POWERFUL AILEVA is about 4 feet long and 2.5 feet wide, with an adjustable height between 2 and 3 feet. It weighs around 187 pounds and can carry the same amount of cargo. Thanks to its wheels and legs, it can move smoothly on flat surfaces, climb stairs and handle rough terrain. Its sensors and cameras give it a sharp sense of where it is and what's around it.HOW TO REMOVE YOUR PERSONAL INFO FROM PEOPLE-SEARCH SITESLEVA's flexibility makes it useful in many places. It could deliver packages right to your doorstep, even if you live in a building with stairs. Farmers might use it to move supplies across fields. On construction sites, it could carry tools and materials over uneven ground. It might even assist in emergency situations by bringing supplies through rubble or rough terrain.For folks like us, LEVA could mean faster, more reliable deliveries, especially in tricky urban areas where stairs and curbs often slow things down. For businesses, it means cutting down on the need for manual labor to load and unload heavy items, which can reduce injuries and lower costs.It also means deliveries and material handling could happen around the clock without breaks, boosting efficiency. In industries like farming, construction and emergency response, LEVA's ability to get through tough terrain while carrying heavy loads could make a big difference in how quickly and safely supplies get where they need to go.HOW SECURE IS MY PASSWORD? USE THIS TEST TO FIND OUTThe first LEVA prototype has shown it can do a lot, but there's still work to be done. The team is improving its energy use, making it better at climbing stairs, and enhancing its ability to operate fully on its own. The goal is to have LEVA become a reliable part of automated delivery systems that work smoothly in real-world settings.SUBSCRIBE TO KURTS YOUTUBE CHANNEL FOR QUICK VIDEO TIPS ON HOW TO WORK ALL OF YOUR TECH DEVICESLEVA blends the best of wheels and legs with the unique ability to load and unload itself.

The Trump administration threatened to revoke Harvard Universitys tax-exempt status, prompting students and faculty members to run to its defense."It mustn't lose its tax exemptions," Harvey Mansfield, a retired Harvard professor of over 60 years, told Fox News Digital.Fox News Digital met with Mansfield at his farm estate in Ipswich, Massachusetts, a rural town outside of Boston. Mansfield, 93, taught political science and political philosophy at Harvard. The author of the book "Dead White Males" first attended Harvard at age 17."That would force it to close its doors. That's going much too far. And the whole idea of placing tax exemption as a penalty for misbehavior by universities is, I think, exaggerated and improper," Mansfield said.JEWISH HARVARD STUDENTS SPEAK OUT AFTER UNIVERSITY SUES TRUMP ADMIN OVER FUNDING FREEZEFox News Digital was also able to speak with Kem, a native of Thailand. Kem, who did not disclose his major and last name, heard chatter of Harvards nonprofit status being revoked."I think that this school does a lot of research that benefits the public good.

Autonomous delivery robots are already starting to change the way goods move around cities and warehouses, but most still need humans to load and unload their cargo. That's where LEVA comes in. Developed by engineers and designers from ETH Zurich and other Swiss universities, LEVA is a robot that can not only navigate tricky environments but also lift and carry heavy boxes all on its own, making deliveries smoother and more efficient.Join the FREE "CyberGuy Report": Get my expert tech tips, critical security alerts and exclusive deals, plus instant access to myfree "Ultimate Scam Survival Guide" when you sign up!Most delivery robots either roll on wheels or walk on legs, but LEVA combines both. It has four legs, and each leg ends with a motorized, steerable wheel. This means on smooth surfaces like sidewalks, LEVA can roll quickly and efficiently, almost like a little car. When it encounters stairs, curbs or rough ground, it locks its wheels and walks or climbs like a four-legged animal. This unique design lets LEVA handle both flat urban streets and uneven terrain with ease.RICE-SIZED ROBOT COULD MAKE BRAIN SURGERY SAFER AND LESS INVASIVELEVA uses a mix of GPS, lidar sensors and five cameras placed around its body to understand its surroundings. These tools help it navigate city streets or indoor hallways while avoiding obstacles. One camera even looks downward to help LEVA line itself up perfectly when it's time to pick up or drop off cargo.DRIVERLESS BIG-RIG ROBOTRUCKS ARE NOW ON THE ROAD IN THIS STATEWhat really sets LEVA apart is its ability to load and unload cargo boxes without any human help. It spots a standard cargo box, moves right over it, lowers itself by bending its legs and then locks onto the box using powered hooks underneath its body. After securing the box, LEVA lifts itself back up and carries the load to its destination. It can handle boxes weighing up to 187 pounds, which is pretty impressive for a robot of its size.CHINESE HUMANOID ROBOT WITH EAGLE EYE VISION AND POWERFUL AILEVA is about 4 feet long and 2.5 feet wide, with an adjustable height between 2 and 3 feet. It weighs around 187 pounds and can carry the same amount of cargo. Thanks to its wheels and legs, it can move smoothly on flat surfaces, climb stairs and handle rough terrain. Its sensors and cameras give it a sharp sense of where it is and what's around it.HOW TO REMOVE YOUR PERSONAL INFO FROM PEOPLE-SEARCH SITESLEVA's flexibility makes it useful in many places. It could deliver packages right to your doorstep, even if you live in a building with stairs. Farmers might use it to move supplies across fields. On construction sites, it could carry tools and materials over uneven ground. It might even assist in emergency situations by bringing supplies through rubble or rough terrain.For folks like us, LEVA could mean faster, more reliable deliveries, especially in tricky urban areas where stairs and curbs often slow things down. For businesses, it means cutting down on the need for manual labor to load and unload heavy items, which can reduce injuries and lower costs.It also means deliveries and material handling could happen around the clock without breaks, boosting efficiency. In industries like farming, construction and emergency response, LEVA's ability to get through tough terrain while carrying heavy loads could make a big difference in how quickly and safely supplies get where they need to go.HOW SECURE IS MY PASSWORD? USE THIS TEST TO FIND OUTThe first LEVA prototype has shown it can do a lot, but there's still work to be done. The team is improving its energy use, making it better at climbing stairs, and enhancing its ability to operate fully on its own. The goal is to have LEVA become a reliable part of automated delivery systems that work smoothly in real-world settings.SUBSCRIBE TO KURTS YOUTUBE CHANNEL FOR QUICK VIDEO TIPS ON HOW TO WORK ALL OF YOUR TECH DEVICESLEVA blends the best of wheels and legs with the unique ability to load and unload itself. This makes it a promising tool for industries that need robots to be flexible, strong and smart. As LEVA continues to develop, it could change the way deliveries and material transport happen, making them faster, safer and more efficient for everyone.How much would you trust a robot to handle your valuable or fragile shipments without human supervision?

The Trump administration threatened to revoke Harvard Universitys tax-exempt status, prompting students and faculty members to run to its defense."It mustn't lose its tax exemptions," Harvey Mansfield, a retired Harvard professor of over 60 years, told Fox News Digital.Fox News Digital met with Mansfield at his farm estate in Ipswich, Massachusetts, a rural town outside of Boston. Mansfield, 93, taught political science and political philosophy at Harvard. The author of the book "Dead White Males" first attended Harvard at age 17."That would force it to close its doors. That's going much too far. And the whole idea of placing tax exemption as a penalty for misbehavior by universities is, I think, exaggerated and improper," Mansfield said.JEWISH HARVARD STUDENTS SPEAK OUT AFTER UNIVERSITY SUES TRUMP ADMIN OVER FUNDING FREEZEFox News Digital was also able to speak with Kem, a native of Thailand. Kem, who did not disclose his major and last name, heard chatter of Harvards nonprofit status being revoked."I think that this school does a lot of research that benefits the public good. I think any kind of rescinding of its non-profit status would probably do more harm to the American public than any kind of benefit that could happen. I hope the school and the administration come to an amicable settlement and let education proceed without disruption," Kem said.Harvard filed a suit against the Trump administration over their policy to terminate Harvard's visa program due to "pro-terrorist conduct" at campus protests.Leading up to Trump's latest restriction on Harvard, many international students did not want to speak with Fox News Digital about the debacle between the school and President Donald Trump.The Ivy League school became a target of Trumps broader probe into universities' handling of anti-Semitism on campus after several schools were rocked by violent protests in the wake of the October 7 terror attacks on Israel by Hamas.TRUMP FROZE FUNDING FOR HARVARD.
