• New research by scientists at Dalian Medical University in China has determined that drinking beer has significant medicinal value
• Here's what we know:

1. Beer promotes good stomach health by creating "good" bacteria in the gut
2. Fiber and other ingredients in beer "supercharge" the immune system
3. The scientists found beer to be rich in many essential amino acids, vitamins, trace elements and bioactive substances that "help regulate many human physiological functions"
4. Beer was found to be more beneficial to the gut than probiotics in yogurt and cheese
5. The scientists think it may also prevent heart disease, arteriosclerosis and improve blood circulation
6. Key to reaping the medicinal value of beer:  drink it in moderation
7. The Chinese scientists found that consuming beer in moderation is better for your health than abstaining from it

• This new research study was just published in Frontiers in Nutrition.

• Alfa Romeo has revealed the 33 Stardale, one of a very few cars being offered with gas or electric drivetrains
• Here's what we know:

1. It's a revived Alfa Romeo, 2-seat model
2. Gas version weighs about 3300 lbs
3. EV weighs over 4600 lbs
4. Both the gas & electric versions perform about the same
5. Right now, it's a limited edition with only 33 cars in production
6. EV range is estimated to be 280 miles
7. EV accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 2.5 seconds
8. Gas version goes from 0 to 62 mph in less than 3 seconds with top speed of 206 mph
9. Comes with butterfly doors
10. Made to drive on the track and on the road
11. Price unknown but we can presume high
12. It's thought to preview Alfa Romeo's future.

• Harvard University renowned astrophysicist Avi Loeb appears to have discovered in the waters off Papua, New Guinea mineral material from literally out-of-this-world and from an entirely different solar system, which may be a history making find
• Here's what we know:

1. Prof. Loeb organized a state-of-the-art tech expedition to search  for a unique, super-high-speed meteor tracked by US government satellites from deep space that careened toward Earth and crashed into the waters off New Guinea in 2014
2. Several months ago, Loeb's extraordinary ocean expedition recovered beads of minerals, 57 in all, in the ocean floor, some of whose chemistry doesn't exist on Earth
3. Loeb believes the tiny mineral objects are from a large interstellar object that travelled light years to finally crash into the Pacific Ocean
4. Loeb is the founder of the Galileo Project, whose mission is to find traces here on Earth of alien technologies
5. The objects found by Loeb's team are composed of metals -beryllium, lanthanum & uranium in a ratio never seen before
6. Key question raised by Loeb's findings:  is this the remains of a meteor or alien space technology?
7. Loeb's findings point to the large amount of uranium found to suggest the possibility it is remnants of alien technology perhaps a space vehicle
8. Loeb's findings are now being scientifically reviewed by his top peers.

• It's an intergalactic thriller for mankind as we all wonder:  Is there life beyond us in space?
