If you think of someone having a heart attack, chances are you will picture a scene where a man gasps, clutches his chest and falls to the ground. But in reality, a heart attack victim could easily be a woman, and the scene not be so dramatic. While men and women share some of the same symptoms, the University of Alabama’s Dr. Joseph Fritz explains they can also have wildly different ones. Both men and women can suffer chest tightness and pain or pressure in the chest, neck, jaw, arms or back. Unusual fatigue, shortness of breath, coughing, feeling sick … Continue reading →

The Transportation Security Administration has an extraordinary amount of power: they can root through personal belongings, force people to take off their shoes, and act all suspicious around any sort of liquid. But the TSA doesn’t ban everything. Here is a list of things will make it through the security inspection. 1. Delta will make special accommodations for flying Christmas trees. Of course, you’ll also have to make room in your luggage for the massive amount of judgment your fellow travelers will heap on you for dragging an evergreen into an airport. 2. Cremated remains are permitted as both carry-on … Continue reading →

American investor Jim Rogers is short on all four FANG stocks, according to a report on Financial Times. FANG is a term coined by CNBC’s Jim Cramer for Facebook Inc FB 0.18%, Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN 1.16%, Netflix, Inc. NFLX 0.57% and Google, now Alphabet Inc GOOGL 0.8%. “Although he still holds significantly more US dollars than he does Chinese renminbi, he is short the Fangs — Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, and Google — which in his view are masking the early stages of a US equity pullback,” the report said.

They are the little blue fruits which put the ‘super’ in superfoods. Blueberries are jam-packed with health-boosting compounds which have been linked to seemingly endless health benefits. From the Holy Grail of slowing the ageing process to fighting devastating ailments like heart disease and Alzheimer’s, blueberries have been hailed in numerous studies. A recent study placed them top of the list when it comes to antioxidant activity – compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables.  Scientists at the US Department of Agriculture Human Nutrition Center put them top of the crops for mopping up harmful by-products of metabolism in … Continue reading →

Within the United States today, we see ever increasing bureaucracy with a strong stranglehold on the personal liberties which we are supposed to believe we are in total possession of. With the rise of the police state, NSA spying, and extremely dangerous executive orders, America has fallen in many of the metrics that rank countries based on their level of freedom. The American way of life that once looked at government as an entity which the people should avoid being parasitic to, and as an institution that should remain as small as possible, has gone completely to the wayside. A profound example … Continue reading →

Calling it a “reverse Saul Alinsky” and “our days of rage” during an interview with Breitbart News Saturday host Matthew Boyle, Donald Trump ally Roger Stone discussed the “Stop the Steal” effort building to prevent the GOP establishment from stealing the Republican nomination from frontrunner Donald Trump at their Cleveland Convention. Stone said: It’s vitally important that the grassroots of this country show their outrage at the idea that the vote of the people, the votes of Republican voters and those brave Democrats and Independents who crossed over to vote in the Republican primary are being disallowed. The party bosses, … Continue reading →

Below, we’ll show that 9/11 could NOT have been an inside job … I. The 9/11 Commission and Congressional Investigation Into 9/11 All Disproved Any Conspiracy 9/11 was thoroughly and exhaustively investigated by the 9/11 Commission, Congress and U.S. scientific agencies. This horse has already been beat to death, and anyone who raises questions is a nutjob. True, the 9/11 Commission didn’t believe that the government told the truth about 9/11,  and said the government obstructed their investigation. For example: 9/11 Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton says the Commission was set up to fail, that people should keep asking questions about … Continue reading →

No Tribeca, no problem for the new documentary Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe, recently withdrawn from this year’s New York film festival at the behest of co-founder Robert De Niro. It is safe to say that the buzz generated by the censoring of this film has overshadowed Tribeca’s 2016 film festival. Adding more fuel to the soaring public interest was producer Del Bigtree’s release of his uncut interview with ABC news regarding the film. In typical fashion, the mainstream media sliced and diced Bigtree’s vital ten-minute interview into a few soundbites to frame an anti-vaccine narrative. Fortunately for the millions wishing to … Continue reading →

Thanks to the popularity of shows like ER and Grey’s Anatomy, you probably know a handful of medical terms. For instance, stat, or “at once,” CCs (cubic centimeters), and Code Blue (a patient needs resuscitation). But how about Code Brown? Or incarceritis? Or turfing? In his book The Secret Language of Doctors, emergency room physician Dr. Brian Goldman takes a look at hundreds of such slang terms. Here we explore 17 of them (and fair warning, some of these you might be better off not knowing). 1. THE BUNKER The bunker is where medical residents meet to hand over patients, as well as, according to Goldman, where they often … Continue reading →

The man responsible for shooting then-President Ronald Reagan spends much of his time in a posh, gated resort residence near Virginia’s scenic James River located just outside of Williamsburg. John Hinckley Jr., 60, could observe the 35th anniversary Wednesday of his attempted assassination of Reagan from a luxurious community astride the 13th hole of a PGA championship golf course, complete with a picturesque view of a tranquil lake, an investigation by The Daily Caller News Foundation has found. “This is absolutely so wrong. To let this guy go free. He almost killed the 40th President of the United States, coming … Continue reading →

Many of the things that are happening this very moment have direct parallels in the literature of the past.  Whether it is an account such as the “Gulag Archipelago” by Solzhenitsyn or a work of “fiction” such as “1984” by George Orwell is irrelevant.  Elements of the history or the storyline (regarding the former and the latter works) are now becoming thoroughly inculcated into the fabric of modern reality. All of the measures taken by the Soviet Union to crush and control its population are beginning to manifest themselves today in the United States.  The courts are “stacked” to reflect … Continue reading →

As evidence for a ninth planet in our solar system grows, a 30-year old theory about mass extinctions on Earth is resurfacing. Evidence was discovered at the beginning of this year for the mysterious ‘Planet Nine’, and since then scientists have been looking for signs that could confirm its existence. But the mystery of this planet has now deepened after an astrophysicist in the US has claimed this planet could have provoked comet showers that caused mass extinctions on Earth. Yesterday, astronomer Mike Brown of Caltech, one of the scientists behind the initial announcement of the so-called ‘Planet Nine’, revealed … Continue reading →

From a murder at the United Nations to a climactic battle on the giant stone faces of four U.S. presidents, North by Northwest has been thrilling audiences with its improbable but highly entertaining story for nearly 60 years.

Watch out for that crop duster and enjoy these behind-the-scenes facts about an enduring classic. 1. IT WAS CONCEIVED WHILE ITS WRITER AND DIRECTOR WERE SUPPOSED TO BE … Continue reading →
