If you were concerned about all of the sexual assaults by immigrants in Europe recently, worry no more. It’s just a game. The rape game. That shocking spree of sexual assaults on European women, perpetrated mainly by refugees and asylum seekers, is all  in the name of fun (and, you know, superiority and ethnic cleansing). Most of the attacks that have been reported in the international news have been gang rapes, with 5 or more attackers. The attacks have been shocking by the sheer numbers involved. The foremost repercussion has been division, not only in the communities where the assaults … Continue reading →

More than 60,000 gun fans and exhibitors descended upon Las Vegas for the first major gun show of the year hosted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation. According to the organisers, the attendance this year is slightly down on 2015 due to ‘enhanced pre-screening’. Last year 67,000 people visited the show, compared to an estimated 64,000 this year. Arms companies from around the world are showing their latest offerings to those attending, including a range of machine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, pistols, sniper rifles and even revolutionary war-style black powder rifles. The event is being held at the Sands Expo Center … Continue reading →

As a mother to three children under 12, I expect to feel totally exhausted at the end of the day. What I didn’t realise, though, was that a lack of an essential vitamin could be to blame for my paltry physical stamina. A while ago, during a series of blood tests for some imaginary ailment (no doubt tiredness related), my levels of vitamin D – essential for the absorption of calcium – were found to be very low. The doctor didn’t seem to think this was significant but, as my mother, aged 78, has osteoporosis, I thought perhaps I should … Continue reading →

WalMart’s attempt to pacify the living wage crowd by giving the company’s lowest paid employees a tiny, across-the-board raise has been nothing short of a disaster. The fiasco started early last year when the world’s largest retailer decided to spend some $1 billion to appease those who claim the company’s hourly workers don’t make enough to live with some semblance of dignity. To be sure, the veracity of that claim was never in question. Lowly shelf stockers, cashiers, and door greeters most assuredly do not make enough money to get by – especially considering the soaring cost of housing in … Continue reading →

“Could we discuss potential punishments?” asked the tall, middle-aged man identified as “Juror 25” during the voir dire for the trial of Matthew Townsend on a ludicrous felony charge of “witness intimidation.” His supposed offense was to publish a well-reasoned and inoffensive Facebook post complaining about being arrested without cause. Pointing out that he had worked as a prison mentor for many years, and had actually counseled inmates facing the death penalty, the juror thought it would be worthwhile to know what would happen to Townsend if he were found guilty. Trial Judge Lynn Norton pointed out that once the trial proper … Continue reading →

As much as I like to think I have a handle on things, sometimes projects slip through the cracks. Case in point.  Since the big road trip to Arizona in late September, not once have I gone out to the Subaru and reviewed the contents of my car kit.  At the time of my journey I was certain that I had everything I needed in the event of a calamity along the way.  The journey, after all, was close to 1,500 miles. Since then, life has happened.  We needed room to cart groceries and, in Shelly’s case, to transport 4 … Continue reading →

Look, I get it. Your husband wasn’t nominated for a prize. So you are not going to turn up to the prize-giving and are going to have a sulk instead. As a mother of three kids under 12, I understand. Losing out is hard and sometimes stomping off to your bedroom seems like a good alternative. But frankly, Jada Pinkett-Smith, at your age, you should know better. I know you feel like the world is on your side. It seems everyone is outraged there are no black nominees for the Oscars 2016. Others have agreed to boycott the event and … Continue reading →

Chronic INFLAMMATION is a common symptom in most degenerative diseases.  These include certain types of cancer, cardiovascular disease, Type II diabetes, high cholesterol, chronic obesity, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Inflammation is a NATURAL RESPONSE of the body to injury.  Think of inflammation in relation to the swelling around a sprained ankle.  The body handles this injury by sending certain chemicals to the area to start tissue repair.  On the surface, this looks like swelling, but underneath the skin, much is going on to repair the damage and restore health to the ankle. “CHRONIC INFLAMMATION” is a systemic response to injury.  … Continue reading →

Marc Faber, editor of the “Gloom, Doom & Boom Report,” has advised investors that now is a good time to invest in gold  because stocks will crash over 40% and the world is on the verge of a new liquidity and debt crisis. Faber says investors would be prudent to diversify into safe haven in gold bullion which has risen 3% this year and is currently at $1,096 an ounce. He recently told MarketWatch that the stock-market downturn could result in stocks hitting lows not seen in five years. Faber warns that the S&P 500, which fell to 1,881 yesterday, could drop to its 2011 low … Continue reading →

Once the power to manage expectations has been lost, the central bank bag of tricks is empty. No one knows precisely how and when the global unraveling will impact their corner of the planet, but we do know one thing with absolute certainty: central banks are out of tricks. Like all good conjurers, the major central banks will claim that their magical powers to inflate asset valuations and inspire the animal spirits of risk, borrowing and spending are unimpaired, but this time the audience knows the truth: their magic is threadbare and their trick-bag is empty. Obfuscation and doublespeak are … Continue reading →

Beards may contain bacteria which could potentially be developed into new antibiotics, a study has found. Researchers found that clean-shaven men were actually more likely to harbour infection-causing bacteria resistant to antibiotics when compared to bearded men. The study, published in the Journal of Hospital Infection, tested swabs from the faces of 408 hospital staff with and without facial hair. According to the results, clean-shaven men are more than three times as likely to be carrying methicillin-resistant staph auerus (MRSA) on their cheeks as their bearded counterparts. Clean-shaven men were also more than 10 per cent more likely to have … Continue reading →
