GARDENERS have been warned that their habit could leave them at an increased risk of heart disease. Medics found that pollutants in the soil could have a 'detrimental effect on the cardiovascular system'. The results of the analysis pushed experts to recommend that people wear a face mask, if they are in close contact with the soil. Experts at the University Medical Center Mainz, Germany said pollution of air, water and soil is responsible for at least nine million deaths each year. They highlighted that more than 60 per cent of pollution-related deaths are due to heart issues such as...

There are different public opinions on COVID 19 or Coronavirus. Some people are panicking and others are taking the necessary steps but are calm and observe the situation. Well, we have another type of people who are using the viral media nature of the virus to get views online. Wuhan Corona Virus (COVID19) is a legitimate health concern, and it is no cause for panic or irrational hysteria, it’s not a type of stuff that people should use to get views online. A social media “influencer” has launched the “coronavirus challenge,” which involves licking a toilet seat in a plane....

un control might be on everyone’s minds, or at least those in America’s newsrooms, but we have yet another development in the ongoing and increasingly comical investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians. There are new texts allegedly showing that the Obama White House, the CIA, the FBI, and top Democrats colluded at the outset of the Russia probe. FBI Agent Peter Strzok, who initiated this investigation in July of 2016, sent them to his mistress and bureau lawyer Lisa Page. That effort is now to be headed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Strzok became a centerpiece...

Feminists can’t wait to find any reason, no matter how far-fetched, to justify their activism. Behold the feminists behind the Women’s March. On August 14, the facebook page for the Women’s March reshared the NRA video that sparked their 17 mile march in July. The video was captioned with the words, “If you didn’t get why we protested the NRA, watch this ad. The act of terror in #Charlottesville is the clenched fist of truth they called for.” Nowhere in the video are supremacists or racists mentioned. And it’s worth mentioning that Heather Heyer, who was killed protesting the white...

You'd be hard-pressed to find a more perfect caricature of America's wildest, bawdiest and most unintelligible impulses than Florida Man. As the Internet's most notorious citizen, Florida Man isn't a single person, let alone a single resident of Florida. He's an amalgamation of the characters who populate the ridiculous news stories that often trickle out of the Sunshine State. Florida Man is a raunchier version of the Onion's mild-mannered Area Man, a caricature, with a wink and a nod, to our fellow Americans. Florida Man is best known for his outlandish conduct, which ranges from the bizarre (carrying a meth...

Due to all the recent news about things that were formerly considered "tin foil hat" material that has been proven true. What other crazy junk that would be considered crazy just a decade ago that now you might think, gee that could very well be a plausible possibility.... With the NSA spying and the IRS intimidating people... They could tell me tomorrow that Obama talked to Gleep the Conquerer from Omicron Persei VIII and that we surrendered to them and I would just go "That sounds like something he would do"...
