Life expectancy is declining in high-income countries worldwide, driven in part by the effects of the opioid epidemic on younger adults in the U.S. and the impact of a severe flu season on older adults in other nations, two new studies suggest.

Life expectancy is a measure of the health and wellbeing of a population. Widespread or sustained declines in life expectancy may signal problems in a nation’s social and economic conditions or in the provision or quality of its healthcare services, researchers write in The BMJ.   Continue reading “Life expectancy declines seen in U.S. and other high-income countries”

After a year-long attempt to save its ability to issue speeding tickets, the notorious speed trap town of Damascus, Arkansas, has officially been declared a scofflaw. Circuit Court Judge Chris Carnahan last week struck down the legal challenge Damascus mayor L.B. Pavatt mounted in the hopes of restoring the town of 379’s most important source of revenue.

“The plaintiffs, by clear and convincing evidence, are found to be in violation of the Arkansas speed trap law,” Judge Carnahan ruled. “The declaratory relief prayed for by plaintiffs hereby is denied, and this matter is dismissed with prejudice.”   Continue reading “Arkansas Town Banned From Issuing Speeding Tickets”

Just after returning home from a walk around the block with her dog, Marshmallow, an 8-year-old Wilmette girl expected a visit from a playmate. Instead, police officers arrived at the family’s door.

An anonymous caller had contacted police after seeing the girl walking the dog alone, said her mother, Corey Widen. While police never pursued charges, the seemingly common activity launched an Illinois Department of Children and Family Services investigation to see if Widen was neglecting her children, she said.

Following Jill Kargman’s furious claim that her son’s classmate made anti-Jewish slurs, the exclusive St. Bernard’s School has promised parents that it will crack down on anti-Semitism and racism.

Earlier this month, “Odd Mom Out” star Kargman wrote that her 10-year-old son Fletch was left distraught earlier this year when a boy said, “I’m a fan of Hitler! God sent Hitler down to kill the Jews because they nailed Jesus to the cross!”   Continue reading “School cracking down on anti-Semitism after Jill Kargman’s exposé”

A type of blue clay found only in the ground in the US state of Oregon could be used to fight antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Scientists say the unusual soil can kill bacteria which are difficult to destroy using drugs, and could help fight infections in humans.

We’ve all heard that sad story about “The Trail of Tears” ™ – the one about how mean old “racist” ™President Andrew Jackson (terms: 1829-1837) rounded up the Indians of the Southeast (mainly Cherokees from Georgia-Tennessee-Carolinas) and force-marched them off to Oklahoma. The various treks, ranging between 700-1000 miles, are said to have caused the deaths of 4,000 Indians who were buried in unmarked graves along “The Trail Where They Cried.”   Continue reading “The Marxist Myth of “The Trail of Tears””

The Thirteenth Tribe is a book that attempts to explain the origins of Eastern Europe’s Jewish population,largely decimated by the Nazi onslaught during the Second World War. Koestler shows through extensive research, how a trading empire was set up by a tribe we know as the Khazars between the expanding power blocs of Christianity and Islam; how the people were converted to Judaism by their king as a way of standing apart from both, and how the people and their wealth were dispersed through the countries of Eastern Europe after the collapse of the Khazar Empire.   Continue reading “The Thirteenth Tribe by Arthur Koestler”

Sometimes to tell a story completely, you have to go a ways back, so be patient with me.

Prior to the 1954 termination, a delegation of the Klamath Tribes went to Washington DC to lobby for the sale of their reservation lands.  The tribal members voted and the land was sold.  If my numbers are correct, 2,100 members on the rolls received the equivalent of $1.5 billion in today’s dollars, which was absolutely their right to do.  With the sale of the land, the tribe was terminated.   Continue reading “White Privilege – The Smoking Gun”

When it comes to attractiveness, I fall short of perfection by only the narrowest of margins. On a scale of 100, I am a 99. And on one recent day, I looked better than 100 per cent of others inquiring about their looks.

I have evidence: An artificial intelligence system developed by a Chinese company that is one of the world’s top computer vision firms scanned my face and rated me.   Continue reading “From rating your looks to shaming jaywalkers, China’s recognition technology is in your face”
