Sarah Ferguson is continuing to feel the heat from a scandal involving her controversial ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The former Duchess of York’s upcoming children’s book, “Flora and Fern: Kindness Along the Way,” has been withdrawn from publication following recent public fallout, multiple outlets report. The book was originally scheduled to be published on Oct. 9. It was postponed until Nov. 20, until now reportedly being scratched completely. “It’s not been delayed, it’s being pulped,” one publishing insider told the Daily Mail. “It’s an acknowledgment of the inevitable. No one is going to want to buy it.” A spokesperson for Ferguson...

The Muslim mayor of Dearborn, Michigan is dismissing noise complaints about a mosque’s call to prayer, deeming it a non-issue. Mayor Abdullah Hammoud spoke about the complaints during an appearance on the “Not From Here” podcast. The issue has been percolating for months, as some residents have raised concerns about the fact that the mosque in question uses a loudspeaker for its call to prayer multiple times a day. […] According to reports, loudspeakers are not permitted between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. But the Muslim mayor does not view this as an issue. “I would tell you is, you...

In a startling first, a Washington state man has been infected with a strain of bird flu previously only detected in animals. The “severely ill” man was hospitalized with a high fever, confusion and respiratory distress earlier this month and confirmed to have H5N5, a subtype of avian influenza carried by wild birds such as ducks and geese. The Washington State Department of Health described the unidentified patient as being “older” and having “underlying health conditions.” The agency noted that the man has a “mixed backyard flock of domestic poultry” at his home in Grays Harbor County, in the southwest...

Former President George W. Bush and his family are reportedly planning to retake the Republican Party from President Donald Trump once he is out of office, according to a recent report. There are allegedly “rumors” stirring that there is a “plot to end the so-called ‘Bush Exile'” as part of an effort to take control of the GOP from Trump and his Make America Great Again (MAGA) policies […] One person, who is described as a “former Bush official,” told the outlet that Trump “knows that there’s no third term option,” while admitting that Vice President JD Vance “has a...

The US housing market is now the strongest buyer's market in records dating back more than a decade, but that doesn't mean they are biting. New Redfin data shows home sellers outnumbered buyers by 36.8 percent in October, with 528,769 more sellers than buyers nationwide. That imbalance is the highest since the years following the 2008 financial crisis, and it has flooded the market with listings and forced sellers to slash prices across much of the country. In theory, buyers should now have the upper hand: more homes to choose from, more room to negotiate, and far less competition. But...

The Plan to Link the Dollar to Gold Again on July 4th, 2026 | Interview with Judy Shelton

U.S. President Donald Trump is considering an executive order that would seek to preempt state laws on artificial intelligence through lawsuits and by withholding federal funding, according to a draft of the order seen by Reuters on Wednesday. The move, which is likely to face pushback from states, shows how far Trump is willing to go to help AI companies overcome a patchwork of laws they say stifle innovation.

The Chosen’s Dallas Jenkins doesn’t just impact viewers but also changes the lives of those who work on the show. Half of The Chosen’s cast and crew are not believers. “We’re always just looking for the best people to do the job,” Jenkins said. Elijah Alexander, who plays Roman investigator Atticus, “through the process of making this show, he has come to understand Jesus more,” Jenkins said. “And last year he texted me and he said, ‘Dallas, for the first time in my life, I fully believe and I am His now.’ And he said: ‘And I have you to...

“‘All who are weary and heavy-laden’” (Matthew 11:28). Everyone whom Jesus specially invites for salvation already realizes their distress, that they are “weary and heavy-laden.” The Lord mentions this after He refers to faith (“come to Me”), but chronologically it precedes faith—it is the repentance that prompts the person to trust in Jesus for salvation. “Weary” refers symbolically to strenuous work in trying to find the divine path to salvation. Christ invites all to come to Him who have exhausted themselves in searching for salvation by their own resources. Whereas “weary” denotes internal exhaustion, “heavy-laden” implies that past heavy burdens...

This fool died trying to steal copper wires from one of those electric car charging stations. Then his family tried and failed to sue the station for 3 million dollars. The judge threw it out and told the family they owed damages for what the man did to the charging station. Yes there is video of him being fried in this video. What is unbelieveble is the entitlement of the family wanting money because he died stealing from this company.

Degenerative joint diseases like osteoarthritis and intervertebral disk degeneration are conditions that affect millions of people worldwide, leading to pain and reduced mobility. A study found that cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) is an important enzyme. It plays a key role in inflammation and cartilage breakdown. The study suggests that cPLA2 could be a possible target for treating joint diseases. Osteoarthritis and intervertebral disk degeneration are conditions that slowly break down cartilage in joints and disks in the spine. This leads to pain, inflammation, and impaired function that worsens over time. Members used advanced methods to examine the relationship between cPLA2...

According to an ABC News Australia report, a new study of a cut mark in the bone of a giant kangaroo recovered from southwestern Australia’s Mammoth Cave suggests that the cut was made after the bone had fossilized. Mike Archer of the University of New South Wales once thought the cut mark was evidence that humans living in Sahul, a paleocontinent made up of what are now Tasmania, Australia, and New Guinea, contributed to the extinction of many species of megafauna some 40,000 years ago. "We were convinced that humans…were trying to cut the bone open to get, perhaps, marrow,"...

In a discovery that could shift labor and delivery practices around the world, researchers have found that the effectiveness of oxytocin—a common medication used to induce or speed up labor—depends on the time of day it's administered, especially for patients with gestational diabetes. The study combined laboratory research in mice and human cells with a review of more than 2,300 pregnancies. The results were striking. Women whose labors were induced in the early morning to around noon experienced significantly shorter labor durations than those induced around midnight. For patients with gestational diabetes, the timing difference amounted to as much as...

A federal grand jury in Miami indicted Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-FL, and several co-defendants with stealing federal disaster funds, laundering the proceeds, and using the money to support her 2021 congressional campaign.

A historically black university whose president is under scrutiny for plagiarism allegations reported on by The Daily Wire is a “criminal enterprise to divert federal and state funds,” according to a federal lawsuit filed by the school’s former Vice Provost for Academic Affairs. It is one of four similar lawsuits filed in the last few months against the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, its president Heidi Anderson, its provost Rondall Allen, and its diversity, equity, and inclusion czar Jason Casares, that all follow a similar pattern: A faculty member allegedly discovers wrongdoing at the university, and then is retaliated against...

In an X post accompanied by screenshots of a critical Facebook post by a Ukrainian journalist, Sternenko stressed that remaining silent about the issues with Ukraine's military and political approach to the country's defense "is a crime."
