[ "More bad news for first-time homebuyers" ]

[ "Sign #3,485 that we might be in another real estate bubble: In July, almost half of all home sales were all-cash deals.", "You read that right. Real estate data company RealtyTrac reported last week that 40% of all home sales in July were purchased by buyers with cash upfront. On the surface, this looks like a sign that our economy could be improving. But MarketWatch reports that this trend is largely unsustainable, due to the driving forces behind these all-cash deals: Investors, retirees and the wealthy.", "This stat also represents yet another barrier for first-time home buyers, who are already feeling the pressure of tight mortgage lending requirements plus rising interest rates. At this rate, the American dream of home ownership will become a luxury item." ]

[ "Why BuzzFeed doesn't do clickbait, by me" ]

[ "Jon Stewart was asked about BuzzFeed and Vice the other day, and had this to say:", "\"I scroll around, but when I look at the internet, I feel the same as when I’m walking through Coney Island,\" Stewart told New York magazine. \"It’s like carnival barkers, and they all sit out there and go, ‘Come on in here and see a three-legged man!’ So you walk in and it’s a guy with a crutch.\"", "That may be the best definition I’ve ever heard of what’s referred to as \"clickbait.\" But it suggests that Stewart, like many people in the media industry, confuses what we do with true clickbait. We have admittedly (and at times deliberately) not done a great job of explaining why we have always avoided clickbait at BuzzFeed.", "In fact — and here is a trade secret I’d decided a few years ago we’d be better off not revealing — clickbait stopped working around 2009.", "I avoided talking about it because, well, a lot of our rivals hadn’t yet figured it out and were becoming addicted to and deeply reliant on misleading headlines; since we weren’t, there seemed to be no harm (to us) in letting others focus on the short-term. But last winter saw a particularly virulent strain of hyper-optimized clickbait take root: the tempting, vacuous \"curiosity gap\" headline. Meanwhile, the many publisher Twitter accounts that auto-tweeted dozens of misleading, over-torqued headlines became Twitter’s favorite joke — and spawned a set of fairly useful \"spoiler\" accounts.", "Now it’s no longer much of a secret that clickbait doesn’t work. BuzzFeed News’ Charlie Warzel wrote a nuanced history of the topic not long ago. The Verge’s Nilay Patel probably described our position better than we ever have in an interview with Poynter:", "\"Most clickbait is disappointing because it’s a promise of value that isn’t met — the payoff isn’t nearly as good as what the reader imagines,\" Patel said. \"BuzzFeed headlines pay off particularly well because they actually make fairly small promises and then overdeliver.\"", "In a blog post in August, Facebook engineer Khalid El-Arini made clear what we all know: that readers don’t want to be tricked by headlines; instead, they want to be informed by them.", "The origins of clickbait", "Clickbait actually has its origins in old media, not the web, and specifically in the don’t-touch-that-dial antics of television and radio. Because you won’t believe what happens next...after the break. It’s a pretty rough consumer experience to demand your audience sit through an ad, online or off. The banner ad, whose decline Farhad Manjoo recently celebrated, was also born during this era and created a business model in which clicks are tied directly to dollars — something many people assume is still how all online publishers make their money. But BuzzFeed has never sold a banner, and I couldn’t even tell you how many monthly page views we get. And so our business model at least moderates that incentive to drag every last click out of our audience.", "The worst form of this online is on a pennies-per-click business model in the transactional netherworld of outsourced sponsored content sitting at the bottom of articles around the web. All that matters in that space is the snappy headline. Grab the reader’s attention, get the click — even if this isn’t the craziest thing Ted Cruz has said yet; even if \"Paris Hilton – topless\" is in fact demurely dressed and riding in a convertible; if this one easy trick won’t actually lose you weight; and if you actually can believe what happens next.", "You can trick someone to click, but you can’t trick someone to share", "If your goal — as is ours at BuzzFeed — is to deliver the reader something so new, funny, revelatory, or delightful that they feel compelled to share it, you have to do work that delivers on the headline’s promise, and more. This is a very high bar. It’s one thing to enjoy reading something, and quite another to make the active choice to share it with your friends. This is a core fact of sharing and the social web of Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and other platforms.", "The best way to ensure your readers won’t choose to share a story or a post is to trick them. Anyone who has spent the last 20 years online knows the specific disgust that comes with a headline that doesn’t deliver on its promise. It’s the kind of taste you get in your mouth from a glistening but spoiled peach. The publisher got the page view, and ComScore doesn’t record your flash of anger. But you’re hardly going to subject your friends to this experience. (Maybe your enemies.)", "What makes a great headline", "In fact, the only real trick is that the work has to be good. And the only thing, other than mediocrity, that can really sabotage this strategy is writing a headline that overpromises and a story that underdelivers.", "Great headlines, meanwhile, tell you a lot about what you’re going to read, and persuade you to click because you know you’ll find a story that will satisfy your interest. The lists that BuzzFeed has long been known for are, as list titles tend to be, extremely direct; \"31 Genius Hacks For Your Elementary School Art Class\" is just that. As my colleague Ryan Broderick puts it, the goal is often, in fact, to \"blow away the curiosity gap.\" One of his recent headlines: \"A 5-Year-Old Girl Raised Enough Money To Take Her Father Who Has Terminal Cancer To Disney World.\"", "The web’s new allergy to clickbait applies, I should add, to those of us who are also working to build great front pages in addition to content for the social web. Most people don’t click on most headlines, but a good front page will inform you without forcing you to click. Vice’s incredible 2014 series \"The Islamic State\" was, if anything, underhyped. And you may not be among the many people who read Jina Moore’s recent dispatch headline, \"In Liberia, Everyone Says Ebola Cases Are Dropping\" — but if you saw the headline, you still learned something. A headline like \"You won’t believe what happened to this Ebola hospital\" might (maybe) get more clicks — but the reader who scans it gets nothing at all. It’s a form of pollution wherever it lives, whether on your homepage or your Twitter or Facebook feed.", "Different people use the term \"clickbait\" differently, and it’s sometimes thrown our direction to characterize entertaining web culture content that the author doesn’t like. That is something different, a matter of taste. But whatever your taste, nobody likes being tricked. And whatever your goals as a publisher, there’s no longer any argument for breaking promises to your readers." ]

[ "'Biggest Loser' Host Thinks Contestants Should Try This Trend Diet" ]

[ "A recent study on past contestants on the weight loss reality show \"The Biggest Loser\" revealed that due to metabolic and hormonal changes that persist after massive weight loss, participants were burning hundreds of calories less than would be expected for someone their age and body composition -- making weight re-gain almost inevitable.", "Of the 14 former participants who were profiled in the study, all but one had re-gained at least some weight, and five of them were back within one percent of their starting weight from before the televised competition.", "Bob Harper, a personal trainer who hosts \"The Biggest Loser,\" addressed the study's disturbing findings during a segment on the \"Today\" show last Friday (both shows air on NBC). He proposed there might be one effective way to address the slowed metabolism that can result from dramatic weight loss: intermittent fasting.", "For people who have lost weight in general, Harper advised them to continue on the diet that helped them lose weight in the first place. For example, if a person cut added sugars or highly-processed carbs, they should continue to do so in order to maintain the new weight.", "But for the severely obese people described in the \"Biggest Loser\" study, or anyone whose metabolism has slowed dramatically, Harper also suggests intermittent fasting, which he actually follows himself. He suggested that skipping breakfast, or about 400 calories, could help them make up for the fact that their bodies are now burning hundreds of calories less than would be expected.", "The increasingly popular diet could be one way to help maintain massive weight loss, he said.", "What is intermittent fasting?", "There are many different versions of intermittent fasting, but the basic principle behind this eating pattern is that alternating days of \"feast\" and \"famine\" can help your body shed fat, restore healthy insulin levels and perhaps even extend your life.", "One popular intermittent fasting strategy is called the 5:2 fast diet. Followers eat however they like for five days, with little regard to calories or macronutrients, and then eat only 500 to 600 calories per day for two days, depending on whether they are a woman or a man. Any day can be a fast day, though the two fast days should not be successive.", "Harper’s personal plan restricts all consumption to a 10-hour window. First, he fasts for 14 hours (yes, sleeping counts as fasting), and then he eats two substantial meals within the next ten hours. For those two meals of the day, Harper focuses on vegetables, healthy fats, and protein. It essentially boils down to him just skipping breakfast, he told \"Today\" host Savannah Guthrie.", "\"Our bodies want to be the weight we have been for such a long time,\" said Harper. \"That’s why it’s such a battle; if you’ve been overweight for a long period of time, your body is going to fight you tooth and nail to get back.\"", "\"That’s why you have to be so diligent,\" he continued. \"You have to watch every single thing that you are doing, no matter if you’ve lost weight on 'The Biggest Loser,' Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig -- however you’ve lost the weight.\"", "Does IF work?", "If book sales and celebrity endorsements are any indication, intermittent fasting is experiencing a surge in popularity -- especially in the U.K., where the 5:2 fast was invented. And emerging research on intermittent fasting is encouraging. A 2015 meta-analysis of six studies that took place from 1975 to 2014 found that participants were able to lose an average of 8.9 percent of their weight after six months of intermittent fasting (this is across all types of intermittent fasting regimens). Three studies that also focused on keeping weight off found that participants were able to sustain a weight loss of 8.2 percent after one month of maintenance. Perhaps most importantly, the 20 percent participant dropout rate for those six studies was much lower than the attrition rates that usually plague weight loss studies, which can range from 10 to 80 percent.", "Harper’s suggestion that people maintain weight loss with intermittent fasting is intriguing, but there is currently no scientific evidence to suggest that it would be effective in the long term, says Stephen Anton, chief of the clinical research division at the Department of Aging and Geriatric Research at the University of Florida. Anton, an expert on intermittent fasting, is not involved in \"The Biggest Loser,\" but he did review the \"Today\" show's report.", "\"[Intermittent fasting] seems to be effective in producing some weight loss, because people do not compensate on their feasting days for the amount of calories that they did not eat on their fasting days,\" Anton told HuffPost. \"But those studies have been relatively short term, and it’s unknown what happens after the intervention is over.\"", "Not everyone should try intermittent fasting. Those who are hypoglycemic, diabetic or on certain medications should not fast, as prolonged periods of starvation can be uniquely damaging to them.", "And like all diets, this eating pattern only works if a person can commit to following it for the rest of their life. Going off any diet can result in regained weight -- and most of it in the form of body fat -- so people should be cautious about embarking on diets that may be unsustainable in the long term, as Dr. Scott Isaacs of the Emory School of Medicine previously pointed out." ]

[ "Don't eat these 16 cancer causing foods" ]

[ "It’s probably not something you think about every day, whether or not the foods you are eating could contain carcinogens, but with almost 1.5 million people diagnosed with some type of cancer just last year, perhaps it’s time to look at what is in our foods that could be causing such a huge number of new cancer patients. Here is a list of the top 16 foods that you most likely consume every day that may contain carcinogens or be suspected of causing cancer.", "1. Canned Tomatoes", "While fresh tomatoes are actually considered to be the cancer fighting foods, those canned ones are nothing like that. Actually, most canned foods are a concern because of what the can is lined with. The lining of almost all canned foods are made with a chemical called bisphenol-A, or BPA.", "A study published in May of 2013 by the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences showed that BPA actually affects the way genes work inside the brain of rats. Even the FDA agrees that there is a problem with BPA as it is supporting efforts to either replace or at the very least, to minimize the amounts found in canned foods. You know it must be bad when even the very lax FDA is concerned!", "Tomatoes are believed to be exceptionally dangerous due to their high acidity, which seems to cause BPA to leech from the lining of the can into the tomatoes themselves. The level of BPA can be so high in fact", "you should seriously consider not feeding them to children. Due to FDA laws, there are no standards for labeling BPA so simply because a can does not say it has it does not mean that it does not contain BPA. Be safe and avoid cans. Cook fresh or buy glass bottles.", "2. Soda Pop", "Perhaps you heard about the recent study that was published in May in the American Journal of Nutrition? It found that people who consumed more than one soda per day had a higher risk of stroke than people who did not drink sodas.", "Loaded with sugar, sodas are an empty source of calories that cause weight gain and contribute to the nationwide epidemic of obesity. Drinking large amounts of this rapidly digested sugar causes your blood sugar to spike which can lead to both inflammation and insulin resistance. Soda is often the root cause of gastro-esophageal reflux disease, which is when the contents of the stomach leak into the esophagus causing not only pain but an actual burning of the esophagus from stomach acid.", "Although sodas are not a direct cause of ulcers, they are known to irritate and make those with ulcers have more pain. Sodas also contain artificial colorings and food chemicals like derivative 4-methylimidazole (4-MI)", "no wonder soda pop has been shown to cause cancer.", "3. Farmed Salmon", "Although fish sounds like one of the healthiest foods possible, farmed salmon is one you should avoid. Unfortunately, more than 60 percent of the salmon consumed in the USA is farm raised.", "These fish are fed unnatural diets and are contaminated with chemicals, antibiotics, pesticides, and other known carcinogens. They live in very crowded conditions which results in these fish having 30 times the number of sea lice than wild salmon. Farmed salmon are fed chemicals to make their meat that reddish pink color that should occur naturally but doesn’t because of the diet of chicken litter that they are fed.", "Also, due to their diet, they have less of the healthy omega-3 that we think we are getting when we consume fish. Studies have also shown that farmed salmon contain high levels of PCB’s, mercury, and cancer causing dioxins. Avoid farmed salmon and buy it canned or look for labels in your market that state the fish you are buying is wild sockeye salmon. \"Can you write my essay for me?\" – Yes! We offer essays from scratch across 20+ disciplines. ", "4. Processed Meats", "What exactly are processed meats? This is a long list that includes, but is not limited to, sausages, hot dogs, bacon, most lunch meats like bologna or pimento loaf.", "Researchers who wrote in the journal of BMC Medicine said that the excessive salts and chemicals that are used when making processed meats are damaging to your health. The study showed that 1 in every 17 people who were involved in the study died and those who ate 160 grams or more of processed meats increased their risk of early death as much as 44 percent within 12 years as opposed to those who ate 20 grams or less. This study involved people from 10 European countries and went on for almost 13 years.", "All these processed meats contain numerous chemicals and preservatives, including sodium nitrates, which make them, look appealing and fresh but are well known carcinogens. Smoking meats seem to be particularly bad as the meat picks up tar from the smoking process. Yes, tar, the same deadly ingredient that cigarette smoke contains", "5. Microwave Popcorn", "Those little bags of popcorn are so convenient to just stick in the microwave, you wouldn’t think for a minute that they could be dangerous to your health, but they are.", "First, let’s talk about the bag itself. According to Wikipedia, conventional microwave popcorn bags are lined with a chemical called perfluorooctanoic acid ( PFOA). This is a toxin you can find in Teflon also. According to a recent study at the University of California, PFOA is linked to infertility in women. Numerous studies in lab animals and humans show that exposure to PFOA significantly increases the risk of kidney, bladder, liver, pancreas and testicular cancers.", "Now, let’s talk about the contents. Although every manufacturer uses slightly different ingredients, most of them use soybean oil (a GMO product) as well as various preservatives such as propyl gallate, a chemical that is causes stomach problems and skin rashes. Now they don’t actually say they are using GMO corn kernels, but that’s because the government says they don’t have to. Even if they don’t use GMO corn, you can bet they aren’t using organic corn!", "6. Potato Chips", "Yes, we know, potato chips are cheap, great tasting, quick snack, however, the negative effects they have on your body may not be worth the little bit of pleasure you derive from these crispy snacks.", "Potato chips are high in both fat and calories, which are sure to bring on weight gain. A study done in the New England Journal of medicine found that eating just 1 once of potato chips per day caused an average 2 pound weight gain in one year. Besides being full of trans-fats which can cause high cholesterol in most people, they have excessive sodium levels which, for many people, cause high blood pressure.", "Potato chips have artificial flavors, numerous preservatives, and colors as well, which is something else your body doesn’t need. Potato chips are fried in high temperatures to make them crispy but this also causes them to make a material called acrylamide, a known carcinogen that is also found in cigarettes.", "It’s hard to say no to your kids demands for chips sometimes, therefore, as a sneaky alternative, buy them baked potato chips or tortilla chips which are at least lower in both fat and calories. Air popped popcorn and whole wheat pretzels are another healthier option. Or try baked apple chips or banana chips which are dehydrated. Both are crispy and are far healthier than regular potato chips.", "7. Hydrogenated oils", "Let’s start from the point that all hydrogenated oils are vegetable oils. Vegetable oils cannot be extracted naturally like butter is, vegetable oils must be chemically removed from their source, and then they are changed to be more acceptable to consumers. They are frequently deodorized and colored to look appealing.", "All vegetable oils contain high levels of Omega–6 fatty acids. An excess of Omega- 6 fatty acids cause health problems, such as heart disease and in increase in various cancers, especially skin cancer. You need a good balance of both Omega 3 and Omega 6. Try to get plenty of Omega 3 every day. You can do this in the form of supplements and grass fed meats, also fatty fish such as salmon and mackerel are a very good source of Omega 3.", "Hydrogenated oils are used to preserve processed foods and keep them looking appealing for a long as possible. Hydrogenated oils influence our cell membranes’ structure and flexibility, which is linked to cancer.", "8. Foods that are highly salted, pickled, or smoked", "Foods that are cured by use of nitrates or nitrites act as preservatives as well as adding color to the meat. Although nitrates do not cause cancer in and of themselves, under certain conditions these chemicals change once they are inside the body into N-nitroso composites. It’s this N-nitroso that is associated with a greater increase the risk of developing cancers.", "Smoking foods such as meat or nuts causes these food items to absorb considerable amounts of the tar that smoke produces. Tar is a known carcinogen. Meats such as bacon, sausage, bologna, and salami are high in fat and salt.. Pickled foods are also very high in salts.", "There is overwhelming evidence that eating these types of foods greatly increases the risk of colorectal cancer and higher rates of stomach cancer. The rates of stomach cancer are much greater in places such as Japan where a traditional diet contains many foods that are highly salted, and/or smoked.", "9. Highly processed white flours", "Most of you have already heard by now that white flour is not a good thing, but you most likely have no idea just how bad it really is for your health. Refining grains destroys its natural nutrients. Mills are no longer content with waiting for their flour to whiten with time", "mills now bleach flour with a chemical called chlorine gas.", "The EPA states that chlorine gas is a dangerous irritant that is not safe to inhale and in large quantities can be lethal. White flour lurks in many processed foods. White processed flour has a very high glycemic rate which quickly raises the blood sugar level and insulin levels, which can be a direct cause of diabetes, not to mention it is believed that it spreads cancer cells by feeding the cells directly.", "Cancerous tumors feed mostly on the sugars in your bloodstream. By avoiding refined grains such as white flour, you can avoid, or at the very least, starve tumors.", "10. GMO’s", "Genetically modified organisms, more commonly called GMO’s, are foods that have been modified by chemicals and grown with chemicals.", "In a study done by Dr. Pusztai at the Rowett Institute in Scotland, rats were fed GMO foods, especially potatoes. ALL rats showed damaged immune systems, pre-cancerous cell growths, along with smaller brains and livers, in just the first 10 days of the project. American consumers believe that the FDA has approved these GMO foods and this is simply not the case.", "The FDA has NO testing procedures for GMO foods, NONE. The only human study ever published showed that those foreign genes that are present in GM food transfer to the DNA in the bacteria in our digestive systems. We, the American consumer, are the guinea pig (or rat) in this case. Unfortunately, almost all grains, including soybeans, wheat, and corn, have been grown via GMO’s.", "GMO’s do not have to be listed on food labels, so read carefully and look for labels that state the food is GMO free.", "11. Refined Sugars", "Refined sugars are not only known to spike insulin levels, but also to be the most preferable food for cancer cells, thus promoting their growth.", "Cancers seem to have a sweet tooth. This is a known fact that has been around for many years. The Nobel laureate in medicine, German Otto Warburg, back in 1931, first discovered that tumors and cancers both use sugars to \"feed\" themselves and/or to increase in size. In order to proliferate, cancer cells seem to prefer feeding on fructose-rich sweeteners like high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS)", "the reason is that HFCS is being metabolized by cancer cells most quickly and easily.", "Now it is clear why high-fructose corn syrup is considered the worst offender. And since cakes, pies, cookies, sodas, juices, sauces, cereals, and many other extremely popular, mostly processed, food items are loaded with refined sugars and HFCS in particular, this helps explain why cancer rates are on the rise these days." ]

[ "What an honor! You have been asked to appear on a panel, to keynote a conference, to advise a celebrity, to be publicly acclaimed. Perhaps you have been offered a plump check. Perhaps you’ve even been promised a prize! Of course you’re flattered. Of course you accept, because you have so much time to prepare. After all, this thing isn’t happening until October. It’s next year. It’s in 2018. It's so far in the future, you’ll probably be dead by then.", "You’ve made a terrible mistake.", "Here’s what will happen. Though the engagement seems infinitely far away today, it will eventually, inevitably, be a week away. Then it’s a day away. And you still haven’t written the speech you need to write. You still have to make a hotel reservation and buy a train ticket and find a baby sitter and apologize to your sister for missing her birthday dinner and beg Dan to cover for you in a meeting. (Sorry, Dan.) The opportunity that sparkled so brightly when they flattered you into it six months ago isn’t gleaming anymore. It’s just a gigantic hassle.", "But I have the miracle solution. (To give credit where it’s due, this tidbit was passed along to me by my wife, Hanna Rosin, and her friend, New Yorker staff writer Margaret Talbot.) Anytime anyone invites you to do anything, ask yourself this question before you accept: Would I do it tomorrow?", "That’s it—those five words. Not: Would I do it on some theoretical day in the future? This is the crucial question: Would I upend whatever I am doing tomorrow so that I can go there and do that?", "Are they paying you enough to skip your daughter’s soccer game tomorrow? Is the panel interesting enough that you don’t mind asking your colleague to cover for you, tomorrow? Is the conference important enough to your career that you would blow off your college roommate’s visit, which is tomorrow. When you get the invitation, pay no attention at all to its far-flung date: Move it mentally to tomorrow.", "Tomorrow makes decisions simple. Meeting the president? Of course I would do that tomorrow! You’re proposing to pay me that much? Then I would speak to your annual meeting of anesthesiologists tomorrow. Driving to North Carolina to give a speech? Not tomorrow. Serve on that important-sounding committee? If I have to do it tomorrow, no way." ]

Taylor Swift notably kept her blockbuster album \"1989\" off of streaming services upon its release that year, and Adele did the same with last year's \"25\" until several weeks ago.", "As Billboard notes, Drake is also the first male artist to top the charts for nine consecutive weeks in over 10 years. The last male artist to tally even nine nonconsecutive weeks atop the chart was Usher with his 2004 album \"Confessions.\"", "Drake has the chance to make history next week, as another consecutive week at No. 1 would tie Adele's behemoth \"21\" for 10 straight weeks atop the chart.", "Either way, Drake has set a new precedent for what it means to be a blockbuster album in the age of streaming." ]

But the reality is that when investors actually have diversification, they often hate it. Why? Because diversification means you own assets that provide sub-par performance, perhaps for years. Eventually human nature drives investors to wrongly rid their portfolios of these perennial laggards in an attempt to improve their future returns.", "I am not suggesting that you shouldn't sell underperformers or change your allocations. But overweights and underweights to asset classes should be done within a context of a long-term, focused, broadly diversified asset allocation.", "Be Careful Chasing the Latest Hot Trend", "Predictions can be fallible. Yes, one could say I am beating up on my own profession, but extreme trend calls often fall flat. I recently had a good chuckle that peak oil demand the idea that demand for oil has peaked and will only fall in the future is morphing into the new wisdom in the oil market to justify lower future oil prices. Is peak oil demand real? Only time will tell.", "But history suggests that bold predictions don't always hold true. In the late 1990s a barrel of oil was priced in the low teens and, according to many expert predictions, was headed to the single digits because the U.S. had become energy efficient. This trend ended after China (remember this old investment favorite?) burst on the scene in the early part of the century and stretched oil's existing infrastructure to its limits. The result was that oil skyrocketed to a per-barrel cost near $150, causing many to point to peak oil supplythe idea that world could not continue to increase daily production of oil to meet demandas justification for the rally to continue into the $300s. The collapse to a low of $26 per barrel earlier this year shows how trends come and go.", "While the oil narrative is interesting, I have bigger concerns with regard to the current time period. Notably, today's international versus U.S. equities trend reminds me of another known wisdom that captivated many investors in the late ʼ90s. Much like today, U.S. stocks had outperformed other asset classes for an extended period of time, thus convincing many investors that their path to future success was incumbent upon removing the other asset classes and avoiding diversification for diversification's sake.", "In late 2000, the S&P 500 (U.S. Large Cap Stocks) completed a strong period of returns relative to other markets. From June 30, 1994, until Aug. 31, 2000, the S&P 500 returned a cumulative 213 percent more than International Developed stocks and 283 percent more than Emerging-Market equities. By the year 2000, to say that many investors had tired of hearing the old-fashioned diversification theme as a reason to stay in international equities was an understatement.", "What happened next? From Aug. 31, 2000, to Oct. 31, 2007, the S&P 500 returned 1.99 percent per year, while International Developed advanced 8.26 percent per year and Emerging Markets roared ahead by 20.56 percent annually. Not surprisingly, this caused investors who missed the first trend change to finally return to international markets (especially China and Emerging Markets) around 2006-2007, right about the time this trend ended.", "Here we sit, many years later, and once again the U.S. equity markets are outperforming. Questions about the wisdom of diversification are once again filling my inbox. I've heard claims from individual investors that they outperform professional investors. Without satisfying my natural desire for an audit, my response is yes, this is absolutely possible, especially in the short term. After all, those who concentrated their money in U.S. tech stocks back in the late 1990s had an exhilarating run for a few years. Unfortunately those years of returns melted away very abruptly for individual investors who decided to abandon diversification and concentrate in U.S. tech stocks. Professional investors often win longer term simply because their investment process keeps them from making big mistakes like abandoning diversification.", "As we look ahead to 2017, we worry that the fear of rising interest rates may cause many investors to contemplate abandoning bonds. Please remind yourselves of the reason you own this asset class for income and a hedge against other parts of your portfolio before making that decision.", "Twenty-plus years of watching market trends and vast sentiment shifts have taught me that remaining centered is a strong foundation for long-term success. Diversification doesn't matter until it does, and then you'll be thankful that you have it.. In other words, its payment stream is not constant; but when it pays, it often more than makes up for its past shortfalls. So if you make a New Year's resolution, let it be to resist the temptation of trends over the proven merits of diversification.", "Happy New Year!" ]

Any guy who sweats is susceptible to SBS, especially when the temperature and humidity rises.", "And you can thank your foldy balls for it. Folds in your skin are the biggest factor that contributes to a testicular scent, according to Dr. Janellen Smith, a professor of dermatology at the University of California, Irvine.", "When the folds of your skin rub against each other, \"little pieces of dead skin cells fall off,\" Smith told HuffPost, and that leads to odor-causing bacteria and yeast. \"If you’re a little piece of yeast, you like dead skin cells and moisture\" to grow,\" she said.", "On top of that, your sweat and smell also stem from the two types of sweat glands that are highly dense in the groin, said Dr. Marie Jhin, a San Francisco dermatologist and author of the book Asian Beauty Secrets. While the eccrine and apocrine glands produce sweat, the apocrine glands produce your musky smell; mix in all that yeast and bacteria, and you’ve got yourself a top shelf mix for SBS.", "Think of it as one of nature’s many ways of sending your unique pheromonal vibes out into the world ― much like how beards on your face also produce a smell.", "So what do you do to combat stinky balls?", "Regularly wash and thoroughly dry your balls in the morning and keep them dry throughout the day. \"We try to make an environment that [bacteria] do not like,\" Smith said.", "She says it’s best to keep your balls unconstricted.

[ "LONDON — Germany is on edge once again as investigators try to stitch together the motive of a driver who plowed a truck into a Christmas market in Berlin on Monday, killing 12 people in what German authorities described as a likely \"act of terrorism.\"", "But new data shows that European authorities aren't just guarding against terror plots using weapons like trucks or bombs. They are also concerned about a more conventional threat: illegal firearms that may be increasingly easy for suspected terror networks to obtain..", "According to the International Center for the Study of Radicalization and Political Violence at King's College London, criminals-turned-terrorist suspects are becoming a more common problem. The research center collected extensive data on 79 recent European militants with criminal pasts. About 80 percent of those involved in recent terrorism plots had criminal convictions.", "The researchers fear that extremists with criminal pasts could plan large-scale attacks more easily because of underworld contacts and previous experience dodging the law. \"Because of the changing profiles of terrorists, it is easier and cheaper for them to obtain firearms,\" said Nils Duquet, senior weapons researcher at the Flemish Peace Institute.", "The growing market for firearms has led to an increase in supply. The number of seized illicit firearms in Europe has been on the rise for years.", "A research project funded by the European Commission also laid out Europe's vast weapons trafficking network. The \"Fire Project\" documents all firearms that were seized in the European Union between 2010 and early 2015.", "One country in Western Europe stands out among the rest: Belgium. Across the country, thousands of firearms were seized over the last few years — many more than in other Western European countries.", "Many of the recent major terror attacks in Europe were planned in Belgium's capital, Brussels, where police have raided dozens of homes belonging to suspected Islamic State sympathizers or other militants. Experts, however, say that only a fraction of all illicit firearms which circulate in the small European country were found..", "\"What authorities focus on is gaining some time,\" said Duquet. \"The aim is to make sure that terrorists need extra steps to obtain a gun — for instance, one week. Every additional day you win is an extra day for authorities to intervene.\"", "Most trafficking takes place on land routes, rather than on ships or planes. Criminals involved in the trafficking business enter the European Union's Schengen area, where there are few border checks, through E.U. members Slovenia or Croatia.", "So how easy is it to cross the border into the Schengen area? A look at the chart below helps explain the answer: very easy, in most cases. So far, few E.U. citizens are thoroughly screened while entering the Schengen zone from outside. While non-E.. U. citizens are frequently asked to stop and have their vehicles searched, E.U. citizens are mostly allowed to pass.", "This explains why the vast majority of those involved in firearms trafficking on European Union soil are citizens of the union. Many come from Southern Europe.", "Although the vast majority of weapons smugglers are young, between 20 and 34, there is also a surprising number of older criminals who earn money from the business.", "The mixed profiles of those offering illicit firearms in Europe is matched by an increasingly diverse demand for the weapons on offer.", "\"Ten years ago you wouldn't have found Kalashnikovs in Western Europe,\" said Duquet, referring to an assault rifle developed in the Soviet Union and now widely copied around the world. Tens of thousands of those weapons still circulate in the Balkans, where war still raged two decades ago. Many of those weapons are now making their way to Western Europe, often smuggled in small quantities.", "\"For criminals, Kalashnikovs are not that interesting.

[ "Breaking down five potential franchise names for the NHL’s Las Vegas expansion.", "NHL hockey appears to be officially headed to Las Vegas as Sin City has been approved to become the league’s 31st franchise according to the Associated Press. This landmark decision gives Las Vegas its first major professional sports franchise after years of trying to break through the stigma associated with the city in order to land a pro sports team to add to the lengthy list of entertainment options in the tourist capital of the United States.", "Now that Vegas has an NHL team to call their own, it will need a team name. Something that will create plenty of fun debate as to what would be the most fitting name for a team playing in the Sin City. Should they make a tongue in cheek ode to their gambling reputation? Or should they go with a new identity with a name that distances itself from the reputation of Vegas as being the city of vices?", "There are plenty of directions in which the NHL’s newest franchise could go with when it comes to a team name, but on the day of the news that Vegas will be the newest home of pro hockey we have five names that should be considered for the league’s 31st team.", "5. T-Mobile Las Vegas", "With the NHL adding more corporate sponsorship than ever, there is an opportunity for the league to sell the naming rights of a franchise that will have to pay a $500 million expansion fee. With T-Mobile looking like the perfect fit to be the first company to own naming rights to a sports franchise to play in the already named T-Mobile Arena.", "The telecom giants already have a long history of corporate sponsorship in sports as Bundesliga champions FC Bayern have their kits sponsored by T-Mobile so the opportunity to have the naming rights for an entire team would be an opportunity that would definitely interest the company.", "The only question is if the NHL are willing to upset the traditionalist in order to create an instant revenue stream for its newest franchise.", "Basketball and hockey teams in Europe being named after corporate sponsors is nothing new as T-Mobile own the naming rights to the Basketball Bundesliga team in Bonn, Germany, but with the backlash surrounding ads on NBA and NHL jerseys this idea could be a hard sell even if it would be a nice cash injection to get the Vegas franchise going in terms of creating revenue.", "That being said, there is already an American team doing this and it hasn’t hurt them at all... the New York Red Bulls, as in the energy drink.", "Don’t expect the naming rights of the NHL franchise to be sold, but if the league is open to the idea there would be no better fit than T-Mobile to step in.", "4. Las Vegas Ice Rebels", "This name would be a direct tie-in to UNLV, which is the city’s most famous non-gambling institution and will be a key demographic that the NHL will be trying to lure to the T-Mobile Arena once the team opens up operations in the coming years.", "The Runnin’ Rebels are Vegas’ team as without pro sports, the UNLV basketball program in the 80s and 90s brought the city their only major championship in 1990 when they won the National Championship. Since then, the Rebels have been the toast of the town even if their football and basketball programs haven’t found the same success. A built-in fanbase that the NHL could associate with by making a nod to the university with the Ice Rebels name.", "There could be objections made by the university for infringing upon their school’s marketing, but with Vegas sports being so closely associated with UNLV it would be fitting that the first major pro sports franchise in the city would also carry the Rebels name proudly onto the ice.", "There is a bit of precedent here as well, the University of Texas at Arlington lent their Mavericks mascot to an NBA expansion franchise in nearby Dallas.", "3. Las Vegas Outlaws", "Another ode to former sports franchises, the Outlaws existed briefly in Las Vegas as both an XFL as well as Arena Football franchise. Both times only lasting a single season in Vegas before folding in 2001 with Vince McMahon’s failed XFL league and the AFL Outlaws folding due to poor attendance after their lone season in 2015.", "While the Outlaws name is most recently associated with former Motley Crüe frontman Vince Neil’s failed AFL franchise, the XFL Outlaws managed to draw 22,000 fans per game and most notably had \"He Hate Me\" Rod Smart on their roster during that one fateful summer where the XFL existed briefly on NBC.", "Naming the team the Outlaws would be a good way to tie in the identity of Las Vegas as well as to touch on its sporting history without directly associating with a current franchise or with gambling. The only real drawback would be naming a franchise after two teams that only managed to last a single season in Las Vegas before ultimately folding.", "2. Las Vegas Aces", "This name will be a big favorite as it seems like a natural way to tie-in Vegas casinos with the new NHL franchise. Something that the NHL may or may not want to do as Gary Bettman has been on the record stating that he does not approve of sports betting on his league, something that may or may not also extend to his league being associated with casino gaming.", "Now that the NHL is in Vegas, Bettman is likely to be singing a different tune when it comes to legal gambling when he will be looking for corporate sponsorships so the Aces name should definitely be on the table if it is floated around. And it should be floated around as it seems to be a no-brainer to name the team after something related to its poker/blackjack playing history.", "We will have to see if the NHL approves of such associations with Vegas’ casinos, but with the aforementioned need to draw sponsorship money from them an easy way to build an early relationship would be by directly tying the casinos to the team with a name like the Aces.", "1. Las Vegas Wranglers", "This name is a straight ode to Vegas’ professional hockey history as the former Las Vegas Wranglers of the ECHL were in existence from 2003-2014, bringing minor hockey to the Sin City in the third tier league to the NHL/AHL.", "A former ECHL affiliate of the Calgary Flames and the Phoenix Coyotes, the Wranglers did successful business in the city for over a decade before their lease at the Orleans Arena forced the franchise to fold. Their Wikipedia page citing that they were given the \"Best Local Sports Team\" award by the Las Vegas Review-Journal on three separate occasions during their run in Vegas. Producing a handful of NHL role players along the way as a team that was always a fixture in the ECHL Playoffs.", "Naming a team after a now defunct minor league team might be a tough sell, but the Wranglers are one of few historic names that could be considered for the new NHL franchise and is a name that has little ties to the gambling presence that commissioner Gary Bettman has historically had a problem with. Based on the Wranglers mostly successful run in the city before recently folding, it would be a nice homage to a team that brought hockey to the Sin City first by naming the new team after the former ECHL franchise." ]

[ "Finding a well-preserved 1,500-year-old mummy buried in the middle of nowhere would generally already be considered a major success. But in this case, rather than the discovery itself, it’s what the corpse was found with on its feet that’s really getting people flushed with excitement.", "Interestingly, this mummy would never have been discovered if it hadn’t been for the help of local herders.. When the herdsmen ran across a strange burial site in the mountains of western Mongolia, they alerted a museum in the nearby town of Khovd.", "As a result, a team of archaeologists went to investigate. The burial site is located at 9,200 feet in elevation along the Altai Mountains of Central Asia – among the most sparsely populated regions in the world.", "Inside the ancient 10-foot-deep grave, the archaeologists found a well-preserved mummy alongside a number of items, including a saddle, a wooden bowl, a clay vase, an iron kettle and traditional Mongolian clothing. The grave even contained the remains of a horse.", "The archaeologists also uncovered wool, from both sheep and camels, in the grave. And thanks to all the extra items, the specialists were able to date the corpse to approximately the 6th century CE, making it just about 1,500 years old.", "Because they did not find a bow or any arrows in the grave, the archaeologists assume that the mummified remains are those of a woman. The body itself is tightly wrapped in felt cloth.", "Judging from her possessions, she was likely \"not from the elite\" of her tribe, said B.Sukhbaatar, one of the museum’s researchers. That said, she was Turkic, and her grave is, furthermore, the first complete Turkic burial site ever discovered in Mongolia.", "The Turkic people first emerged in the Altai region thousands of years ago before migrating out to many other places, including modern-day Turkey. Ancient 6th-century Chinese texts describe the Turkic people as strong and powerful nomads, skilled in archery and horseback riding.", "Indeed, the individual in the grave was clearly part of a group of people who relied almost entirely on livestock to support their way of life. Other discovered items that confirm this idea include sheep and goat bones and leather – parts of grazing animals, which the nomads would have had accompany them on their travels.", "The amazing find may also be the first complete Turkic grave unearthed not just in Mongolia but all of Central Asia. And, interestingly, the archaeologists credit the body’s preservation to the cold temperatures of the mountainous region.", "Similar findings of Turkic warrior graves have been made in the Altai region in recent years. However, this is the first such site to contain so many personal possessions.", "But despite the incredible find, there’s more that has the internet buzzing. The most interesting aspect of the mummy is its strange footwear, which instantly generated a heated discussion when the photos first appeared on the popular video sharing website LiveLeak on April 10, 2016.", "The mummy’s shoes feature colored stripes which, as many commenters pointed out, look strangely similar to the Adidas logo. Others on Twitter and Facebook took the theory a step further by suggesting that the woman was a time traveler – and we’d have to add that she must have been one with a great sense of sporty footwear fashion.", "Another person quipped, \"I wish my adidas shoes last 1500 years I’m lucky if I get 3 months out of them.\" But, naturally, this was all meant to be tongue-in-cheek", "as another commenter pointed out, the shoes actually had some clear differences from typical Adidas footwear.", "For one thing, the shoes feature four visible stripes, whereas Adidas has only three. And of course their owner probably fashioned the shoes herself – rather than having them made in Vietnam. Others chimed in that the stripes were more likely bands used to hold the shoes in place.", "In any case, the fact that the archaeologists have not responded to the footwear debate suggests that they don’t take it very seriously, unfortunately. To them, the find holds much more value as a window into the life of 6th-century Central Asian nomads.", "Mr. Sukhbaatar said the discovery is a \"very rare phenomenon,\" adding, \"These finds show us the beliefs and rituals of Turkiks.\" He suggests that the horse in the grave was likely sacrificed to continue serving its master in the afterlife.", "In similar fashion to the Ancient Egyptians, these Turkic people believed that physical items could be used in the afterlife. This explains why the woman was buried together with her possessions and especially her horse.", "But more importantly, the sophisticated items found in the grave \"show us that these people were very skilled craftsmen,\" Sukhbaatar added. \"Given that this was the grave of a simple person, we understand that craft skills were rather well developed.\"", "The archaeological specialists hope to gain further insights once the mummy has been unwrapped and properly examined. At the very least, they will be able to give a better final determination on the mummy’s gender. A sense of mystery certainly surrounds this ancient discovery, but it’s perhaps less to do with footwear than some folks would like to imagine." ]

I’ve been on the Henny for so long. That’s everybody’s original drink. So over the years I tried a lot of different things, from tequila, to whatever. And I’ve been away from Henny for a while. And it was ironic, when I got the call from them is when I got back into Hennessy. It was like magic.", "What has been the most interesting thing that you discovered since working with the brand?", "That Cognac was a place in France, and that’s where they make the product. There’s barrels of this stuff that’s centuries old, stored in old stone warehouses. And it’s a serious process that goes into making each bottle. And it comes from grapes, I had no idea. I never thought about where cognac came from. I assumed just sparkling wine and red wine, all of that was grapes. I never took the time to think, \"wow, this thing comes from grapes too.\" And there’s a real place called Cognac, France. Which is a cool country side.", "Next year will mark the 20-year anniversary of the release of \"Illmatic.\" Are there any special plans underway to commemorate the milestone?", "We’re putting together a concert. And I think we’re going to do something with the album and repackage it with special stuff. I think that’s in the works.", "Earlier this year you initially planned to unveil the title to your next album.. What has been the cause of the delay?", "I got a little busy, and I wasn’t sure it was really a real fit for the record. It felt like I came up with it too easy. And I like that because \"Life Is Good\" came up on its own. It just popped in my head. So the next title came up in a similar way, but it was probably too early.", "Thus far, how is the album shaping up in terms of its direction?", "With \"Life Is Good\" it felt like hip hop needed an album to help steer the direction of the sound and the rest of the albums that were coming out that year. Or to re-encourage the ones that were working to say, \"It’s ok to make a hip hop album.\" And that was my goal with that. And I think I accomplished that. I think after that I saw a nice sharp turn for the better in rap albums. So that mission is completed.", "With this record, ah man ... It’s the next chapter in myself as a writer. I’m really excited about every new leaf I turn. Every new endeavor. I’m excited about that and all the potential that comes with everything new that I do. And all my ideas can come to fruition. And that excites me, because there’s no limits to what I can do, in terms of trying to be an inspiration. I just want to do well for the listeners out there.. Do well for the whole genre. So I’m excited.", "One particular track off the album that has piqued fans' interest is, \"Sinatra In The Sands,\" featuring Justin Timberlake and Jay Z. What was the recording process like?", "Excitement... Excitement to work and be in the place that we’re all are at, musically. Those are the guys who lasted the test of time, and those guys are at the top of their game. They’re just great company to be in. So that’s the whole vibe of that. And of course the title says it all.", "Lyrically, where are you taking fans on the track?", "More like from a musician’s stand point, someone who’ve been around. Because Sinatra has been around and he has a long, long standing with the stage and the audience for years. And he evolved. His talent got better just like wine. And I think that’s something a lot of people want to achieve. So that’s what this song is really about. Striving to be the best you, like Sinatra had become.", "In recent weeks you’ve been photographed in the studio with Mariah Carey and Jermaine Dupri.

She’s on another level. Just working with an artist that big really shows me how much further I can go. I’ve been inspired just sitting there talking to her. She’s very smart and extremely talented. And I’m just happy to work with her again.", "In the past you two remade Keith Sweat’s timeless classic, \"Make It Last Forever.\" If you guys could hypothetically go back and remake another classic hit, what would it be?", "Wow! I think me and her would be Marvin [Gaye] and Tammi Terrell in a way. Their track, \"Ain’t Nothing Like The Real Thing,\" or something like that.", "Aside from the Hennessy campaign and music you’ve also launched your new clothing line, HSTRY. How much input do you have in each design?", "Total input on everything. From picking out fabric to the designs. It’s a collaborative effort between me and Grungy Gentleman. So what you’ve been seeing from HSTRY is not 100 percent HSTRY. It’s half HSTRY, half Grungy Gentleman. That was the way we launched it on that level. But the Spring collection is the next thing. We’re going to have some cool pieces this Winter. But next Spring is where my head is at, which will be 100 percent HSTRY.", "How has your experience working with the Willie Esco brand better prepared you for HSTRY?", "I saw the future of Esco being a $200 - $300 million company, but they didn’t. Those guys didn’t foresee the Sean John and Rocawear thing. They didn’t foresee it because they just weren’t in that head space. They didn’t believe in it, so I left because I didn’t believe in the direction. And through the years I’ve been wanting to do something here and there, but I didn’t have the time. I knew it would come later down the road at some point. So I just waited till it felt like it was the right time.", "Where do you envision your style in the fashion industry?", "Just a great look, comfort, and quality. My thing spans from my 90s wear, where it’s all military, it’s all fatigue-style stuff, but just make it higher end and current. And also, the athletic styles of that time.. Without revealing all my secrets, I have a wide range of ideas for HSTRY. It’s just unstoppable with all the directions I have for this thing. I’m excited to get that off the ground, and we’re just starting. It looks like 2014 is going to be another big year for me." ]

Crowned as a national natural landmark in 1977, Torrey Pines is home to the elusive and eponymous Torrey Pine tree, the rarest pine to grace American land. But alas—it wasn't always that way. Historic attempts—some more successful than others—have been made to protect the precious tree since its discovery in the 19th century. It was everything from signs that promised a $100 reward for the apprehension of cowardly vandals to the area's designation as a national reserve—one of the strictest federal protections enacted specifically to shelter endangered flora and fauna.", "Tree groves are a fairly uncommon sight along the southern California coast, so when early Spanish explorers stumbled upon Mother Nature's magical pines, the area was dubbed Punto de Los Arboles, which literally translates to \"Point of Trees.\" Today, Torrey Pines is home to a web of hikes just remote enough to make you feel like the only troubadour hitting the trails. Or, if you're poetic, take a nice long walk along the beach—just remember to check the tides! High tides can leave little room between the ocean swell and the cliffs.", "And in the warmer months when the Santa Ana winds blow hot and dry, and Joan Didion might warn that all the dogs will bark in synchronicity and to keep an eye out for trouble—in reality, you have nothing to worry about.

[ "This String Cheese Packaging Is Oddly Sexist" ]

[ "Some days you can’t even enjoy a string cheese without sexism getting you down. Someone wrote in to Jezebel this week with an irritating observation about Galbani string cheese. \"The 3 types of full fat cheese each have a different 'boy' string cheese cartoon character, but the low fat cheese character has been drawn as a girl,\" the anonymous tipster wrote. \"Wouldn’t have noticed it at all except my 5yo daughter excitedly pointed it out and asked if we could get the ‘girl cheese.’\" The tipster provided a photo, which matches up with the images of the cheese on the Galbani website -- all their string cheese and \"snack cheese\" products have a stereotypically male-looking cheese character, while the reduced-fat versions have a lady cheese person." ]

[ "Scientists just discovered where HIV began" ]

[ "Diseases, while disastrous, often come and go in the public eye. We hear about ebola, but then another one quickly grabs national monitors and TV screens for its fifteen minutes.", "However, one condition that seems to not fit into his norm is the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). The spread of HIV is a story that would have most television dramas pale in comparison - combining elements of intrigue, suspense, and mystery into one cohesive nightmare that has blanketed the globe since the 1920s.", "It all began in Kinshasha, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo. However, in the 1920s, it was better known as the Belgian colony of Leopoldville.", "A high profile location for young men to sojourn to in hopes of making a fortune, as it was the capital of Belgian Congo. Therefore, with them came railroads and sex workers. Two forms of transportation that respectively spread people and infection. With a flourishing location, HIV found many opportunities to grow into the pandemic it is today.", "The irony of it all is that HIV-1 group M, the type of HIV that originated in the colony, is responsible for about 90 percent of all infections, while HIV-1 group O, another type of HIV originating nearby is still quietly confined to West Africa. Thereby suggesting it may have been the opportunities, and not the function, of that disease that enabled it to roar globally.", "\"Ecological rather than evolutionary factors drove its rapid spread,\" says Nuno Faria at the University of Oxford in the UK, in an interview with the BBC.", "Faria and his colleagues were able to make this determination after they built a family tree of HIV by looking at a host of HIV genomes collected from about 800 infected people from central Africa.", "Notably, by comparing two genome sequences and counting the differences in them, the team was able to figure out when the two last shared a common ancestor.", "Ultimately, Faria determined that the HIV genomes all shared a common ancestor... one that existed no more than 100 years ago. To that end, they assert that it all likely began around 1920.", "And with this information, they were able to place the virus to a specific city of origin - Kinshasa, which is now the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo.", "All in all, the genetic assays that helped us localise the origin of the disease are still underway to help us identify points of public health intervention that may help us reduce the spread of the infection.

[ "One of the World’s Greatest Art Collections Hides Behind This Fence" ]

[ "The drab free port zone near the Geneva city center, a compound of blocky gray and vanilla warehouses surrounded by train tracks, roads and a barbed-wire fence, looks like the kind of place where beauty goes to die. But within its walls, crated or sealed cheek by jowl in cramped storage vaults, are more than a million of some of the most exquisite artworks ever made.", "Treasures from the glory days of ancient Rome. Museum-quality paintings by old masters. An estimated 1,000 works by Picasso.", "As the price of art has skyrocketed, perhaps nothing illustrates the art-as-bullion approach to contemporary collecting habits more than the proliferation of warehouses like this one, where masterpieces are increasingly being tucked away by owners more interested in seeing them appreciate than hanging on walls.", "With their controlled climates, confidential record keeping and enormous potential for tax savings, free ports have become the parking lot of choice for high-net-worth buyers looking to round out investment portfolios with art.", "\"For some collectors, art is being treated as a capital asset in their portfolio,\" said Evan Beard, who advises clients on art and finance at U.S. Trust. \"They are becoming more financially savvy, and free ports have become a pillar of all of this.\"", "From left, a Etruscan sarcophagus that was locked in a free port for decades under a shell company’s name and returned to Italy earlier this year along with other antiquities stolen from burial sites", "Picasso’s \"Petit Pierrot aux Fleurs,\" a portrait of his son Paolo in a harlequin costume, one of about 4,500 works the Nahmad family of London art dealers is said to have tucked away in the Geneva Free Port", "and Leonardo da Vinci’s oil-on-panel \"Christ as Salvator Mundi,\" which emerged publicly for the first time in 2004 and was consigned to a free port when it was purchased in 2013.", "The trend is prompting concerns about the use of these storage spaces for illegal activities. It is also causing worries within the art world about the effect such wholesale storage has on art itself.. \"Treating art as a commodity and just hiding it in storage is something that to me is not really moral,\" said Eli Broad, a major contemporary art collector who last year opened his own Los Angeles museum.", "Free ports originated in the 19th century for the temporary storage of goods like grain, tea and industrial goods. In the last few decades, however, a handful of them — including Geneva’s — have increasingly come to operate as storage lockers for the superrich. Located in tax-friendly countries and cities, free ports offer savings and security that collectors and dealers find almost irresistible. (Someone who buys a $50 million painting at auction in New York, for example, is staring at a $4.4 million sales tax bill. Ship it to a free port, and the bill disappears, at least until you decide to bring it back to New York.)", "At least four major free ports in Switzerland specialize in storing art and other luxury goods like wine and jewelry, and there are four more — most newly minted — around the world: Singapore (2010)", "Monaco (2012)", "Luxembourg (2014)", "and Newark, Del., (2015).", "Concerned by the rapid growth of these private storage spaces and worried that they could become havens for contraband and money laundering, Swiss officials initiated an audit in 2012, the results of which were published two years ago. The results revealed a huge increase in the value of goods stored in some warehouses since 2007, led by an increase in high-value goods like art. Though the audit did not specifically measure the increase in stored artworks, it estimated that there were more than 1.2 million pieces of art in the Geneva Free Port alone, some of which had not left the buildings in decades.", "Many masterpieces have long lived outside of public view, buried in the basements of museums or tucked away in the private villas of the rich.", "But the free ports are drawing more criticism and concern, namely: Are they bad for art? Does the boxing up of millions of valuable works pervert the very essence of what art is supposed to do?", "Containers stacked at the Geneva Free Port zone, one of several that have become popular destinations for locking up art treasures out of reach of taxes.", "Yes, say many in the art world. \"Works of art are created to be viewed,\" said the director of the Louvre, Jean-Luc Martinez, who described free ports as the greatest museums no one can see.", "Some see even higher stakes for contemporary works, as they can be whisked off, their paint hardly dry, before ever entering the public’s consciousness. Storage puts the art \"intellectually almost in a coma,\" said Joanne Heyler, the director of the Broad Museum.", "Not everyone agrees, pointing out that there is plenty of art in the world for people to see and that much art was created as private property. \"Paintings are not a public good,\" said David Nash, a New York gallery owner.", "Even so, some collectors whose businesses have come to depend on free port storage are a bit sheepish. \"It is a shame,\" Helly Nahmad, a London dealer whose family is said to store 4,500 works in the Geneva Free Port, told The Art Newspaper in 2011. \"It is like a composer making a piece of music, and no one listens to it.\"", "So just what works are locked away? Because most art is tucked into storage spaces quietly, it is difficult to know what is where at any given moment.", "But assorted legal disputes, investigations and periodic exhibitions featuring stored works have provided glimpses of specific pieces lost from view.", "There are the rare Etruscan sarcophagi discovered in Geneva by the Italian police two years ago, found among 45 crates of looted antiquities, some still wrapped in Italian newspapers from the 1970s.", "And the $2 billion collection of the Russian billionaire Dmitry M. Rybolovlev, which includes a Rothko, a van Gogh, a Renoir, Klimt’s \"Water Serpents II,\" El Greco’s \"Saint Sebastian,\" Picasso’s \"Les Noces de Pierrette\" and Leonardo da Vinci’s \"Christ as Salvator Mundi.\"", "(Mr. Rybolovlev is suing his former art adviser, a major free port operator in Geneva, and has since shifted his collection from Geneva to storage in Cyprus, according to court papers filed last year.)", "Some 19 works by Pierre Bonnard, a master of Post-Impressionism, are owned by the Wildenstein family, one of the great art-dealing families of the 20th century, according to the former lawyer for the widow of the patriarch, Daniel Wildenstein.", "And there is a portrait of Picasso’s second wife, Jacqueline, by the artist, along with 78 of his other works, shipped by his stepdaughter, Catherine Hutin, to the Geneva Free Port in 2012, according to legal papers.", "\"If Jacqueline was alive and knew that her paintings were in the free ports, she would just be devastated,\" said Pepita Dupont, author of a book about Jacqueline Picasso.", "Picasso’s \"Garçon à La Pipe\" (\"Boy With a Pipe\") disappeared after it was sold to an unknown buyer at a Sotheby’s auction in 2004 for $104 million. Dealers suspect a free port is its likely new home.", "Despite enhanced Swiss efforts to track inventory and ownership, the free ports there remain an opaque preserve (though more transparent these days than counterparts in places like Singapore), filled with objects whose ownership can be confoundingly convoluted.", "Case in point: $28 million worth of works by Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, Joan Miró and others now stored in the Geneva Free Port. Equalia, a company registered by Mossack Fonseca (the law firm at the center of the Panama Papers controversy about how the wealthy conceal their riches), stored the works on behalf of a diamond broker, Erez Daleyot, in 2009. Once in storage, the art was used as collateral for debts Mr. Daleyot owed to a Belgian bank, according to court papers. Now a man named Leon Templesman, president of a New York diamond manufacturing company, Lazare Kaplan International, is trying to seize the art as part of a dispute with Mr. Daleyot and the bank.", "Mr. Templesman said the free port’s embrace of confidentiality made such seizures more complicated. The bank, KBC, said it had kept the art in the free port \"out of precaution\" and that it could not comment further on a matter involving one of its clients.", "David Hiler, president of the Geneva Free Port, said that as a result of the audit, the Swiss were working to address concerns about lack of transparency. Come September, he said, all storage contracts will require that clients allow additional inspections of any archaeological artifacts they want stored there.", "Collectors and dealers choose to store art in the free ports for more pedestrian reasons than tax avoidance. Some simply have no more room in their homes, said Georgina Hepburne Scott, who advises collectors. And in a free port, their property is protected in climate-controlled environments, often under video surveillance and behind fire-resistant walls..", "\"When it is brought to light, the work is preserved", "it’s not been hanging above a smoky fireplace,\" she said.", "Van Gogh’s \"The Olive Pickers\" was once owned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Lawyers for a Greek shipping heiress are trying to trace it and a trove of other paintings, which they say was last seen in a warehouse in Lausanne, Switzerland.", "Some warehouses also have viewing rooms where collectors can review their art and show it to potential buyers. This year, after voters in Geneva rejected a plan to expand the major art museum, a Swiss lawyer, Christophe Germann, wrote a newspaper column advocating wholesale sharing, arguing that free ports be forced to open their doors to let people see public displays of the private collections, a worthy trade-off for the tax benefits collectors receive.", "For many living artists, meanwhile, the fact that their work might be stored away in a climate-controlled bunker has become part of the reality of doing business.", "\"Ideally, I would like my work to be on display rather than in storage,\" said Julia Wachtel, a contemporary artist who knows that some of her collectors occasionally store art.", "At their worst, Ms. Wachtel said, free ports represent a financial system in which investors have no connection to the art they buy. But she also recognizes that storage warehouses allow responsible collectors to manage their works and their limited wall space.", "\"People buying art is what keeps artists alive,\" she said.", "And at the end of the day, dealers say that most artworks eventually surface.", "\"Even if it stays there for the lifetime of the collector,\" said a New York dealer, Ezra Chowaiki, \"it’s not going to be there forever. It will come out.\"" ]

[ "This was the case for BlackBerry's last launch anyway, as the all-touch DTEK50 was more or less a repurposed Alcatel device manufactured by TCL. Furthermore, the company announced in today's financials that it's already licensed its name to an Indonesian firm that'll build and sell BlackBerry-branded devices in the region.", "While BlackBerry still makes the best keyboards in the business, some of its last highly security-conscious enterprise customers are starting to move on -- not to mention that the security of consumer devices has been called into question. In the past few months, BlackBerry has lost several high-profile patrons, including the US Senate and President Obama.", "BlackBerry's core business remains software, but gone are the days when secure, enterprise email solutions were all the company had to talk about. Much of its famed productivity software is now available on Android, BBM is still very much a thing, and the QNX platform is being expanded to power self-driving cars. BlackBerry has also started shipping Radar, a hardware and software combo that offers shipping companies and the like real-time tracking. And while BB10 OS may be all but retired, a renewed focus on software appears to be paying off.", "\"We are reaching an inflection point with our strategy. Our financial foundation is strong, and our pivot to software is taking hold,\" said Chen. \"In Q2, we more than doubled our software revenue year over year and delivered the highest gross margin in the company's history.\" Cut through the corporate speak and the general takeaway is: BlackBerry is doing alright, hardware is expendable." ]

[ "If your password made this list, it's time to change it:" ]

[ "Photographer: Craig Warga/Bloomberg", "For the sixth year in a row, password management security company SplashData has scraped password dumps and scoured through the data to find the world's most common passwords. This year's compilation was drawn from over 5 million leaked emails. The passwords were mostly held by users in North America and Western Europe.", "SplashData estimates that just over 10 percent of people use at least one of the 25 passwords from this year's list, up from three percent in 2014. A whopping 4 percent use the worst password, 123456, and the list also includes multiple variations of 'password,' meaning that John Podesta wasn't alone.", "'123456' and 'password' top the list, just as they did in 2014 and 2015.", "All but one of the numeric patterns were in last year's top 25 oft-repeated passwords, including '12345,' '12345678,' '1234567890,' '1234567,' and '1234.' New this year was '121212.'", "This year's list included 'Password' and variations 'passw0rd' and the new but predicatble 'password1.' It also had some pretty obvious words: 'qwerty,' 'login,' 'welcome,' and 'admin,' another new one this year. Old favorites include 'football,' 'princess,' 'solo,' 'abc123,' 'dragon,' and 'master.'", "Other new words this year: 'hottie,' 'loveme,' 'sunshine,' and 'flower.' Oh, and 'zaq1zaq1,' which is what you get when you type up on the left column on a standard keyboard. (Yes, other people can figure that out.)", "The new passwords replaced 2015's '123456789,' 'baseball,' '111111,' '1qaz2wsx,' 'monkey,' 'letmein,' 'qwertyuiop,' and 'starwars.'", "Many people wrongly assume that adding a '0' instead of an 'O' will make their password more secure, but SplashData CEO Morgan Slain says that's not the case. Making minor modifications to an easily guessable password does not make it secure, and hackers will take advantage of these tendencies, he wrote in a press release. Our hope is that by researching and putting out this list each year, people will realize how risky it is to use these common logins, and they will take steps to strengthen their passwords and use different passwords for different websites.", "It's unclear whether folks are adding these variations in a misguided attempt to be more secure, or because they're being forced to. A 2015 study from researchers at Concordia University that I discussed last year showed that strength measurements on password strength meters on popular websites and password managers were highly inconsistent and may even lead users astray, since they relied on length, variety of characters, and sometimes common words or weak patterns, but failed to identify other weak patterns and did not account for Leet transformations (where the letter O could be replaced with the number 0, for example), even though anyone trying to crack a password certainly would.", "In our large-scale empirical analysis, it is evident that the commonly-used meters are highly inconsistent, fail to provide coherent feedback, and sometimes provide strength measurements that are blatantly misleading, the study read.", "Your best bet is the same as ever: create complex password phrases, and use a unique password for every account. That's because reusing passwords on multiple accounts leaves all of your accounts vulnerable if just one gets hacked and the passwords get dumped. To make things easier, store your passwords in a password manager.", "If you're going to ignore password best practices, one way to be a little more secure is to set up two-factor authentication, at least on your email account. Two-factor authentication is a way to keep you safe from someone nefariously trying to reset your password. It adds an extra layer of security by asking for a second factor, in addition to your username and password, to prove your identity. This might be a numeric code sent to you via text message, a code generated on a phone app like Google Authenticator, or a Yubikey, a small hardware device that can be used to secure passwords on some sites or accounts. (Gmail allows users to print out one-time codes, in case you lose your phone or have it turned off because you're on an airplane.)", "If someone tries to reset your password and you have 2FA enabled, it'll be much harder for them to gain access to your account. And if you have 2FA on your email account, this would at least stop a malicious actor from being able to reset all of your other passwords unless they can crack them, that is." ]

[ "Jacking off, jerking the turkey, bashing the bishop: there are plenty of colourful phrases men can use for \"masturbation\", but as we've already learned, women just don't have the same options.", "To redress this balance, the good people of Sweden have invented a new word which uniquely describes the experience of female self-stimulation: \"klittra\".", "Last November, the Swedish Association for Sexual Education (RFSU) launched a competition asking members of the public to come up with a new phrase to help promote an \"open, positive view of sex and relationship issues\".", "Historically, women's sexuality and not least female masturbation has been taboo. Women are not expected to have desires and be turned on in the same way as men, which is reflected in the lack of words [for masturbation].", "RFSU statement, translated by TheLocal", "After receiving almost 200 entries, a shortlist of 40 was distilled and posted on RFSU's website for a public vote.", "The highly popular \"klittra\", which is reportedly a combination of \"clitoris\" and \"glitter\" was officially adopted by the RFSU at its congress earlier this week - narrowly edging out \"pulla\" and \"runka\".", "More: Eight women discuss masturbation, still don't know what to call it" ]

It looks like he’s trying to cosplay as an Angry Bird.", "\"The thing that shocked us the most was the smell,\" Lucy Kells, a nurse at the Veterinary hospital that cared for the tikka'd gull, told the Guardian. \"He smelled amazing, he really smelled good.\"", "What's not shocking is that the gull’s mishap occurred in pursuit of human food.", "\"Seagulls are notorious thieves,\" the blog Living Alongside Wildlife explains. \"They tend to steal from anything that has food.\"", "Here's one gull stealing a sandwich from a closed backpack.", "Here's one that was caught casually shoplifting.", "Here's a gull mistaking a GoPro camera for food and flying away with it.", "And here's one stealing a piece of fish right out of a person's mouth!", "But why?", "Seagulls are what biologists call kleptoparasites, animals that rob the food of other species. And the birds can be damn cunning about it.", "According to Seabirds: Feeding Ecology and Role in Marine Ecosystems, kleptoparasitism is a survival strategy that minimizes the energy expenditure needed to obtain food. Basically, the gulls have realized, why search for your own food when there's some perfectly good food in another animal's possession? They need to be clever to do so. Birds that are kleptoparasites tend to have bigger brains than birds that live the straight and narrow.", "For it to be considered kleptoparasitism, the biologist Erika Iyengar explains, the parasite has to steal food from the host, and the host has to suffer as consequence.

[ "Meet the last rat catcher of #India!" ]

[ "Anybody who has ever tried to catch a rat, without new-age tools, understands the complexity of the process. Some of us had heard stories of a certain tribe in South India that not only excelled in catching rats but also feasted on them. Was this a legend or were these people still around?", "The idea was so intriguing that Mirror went on a hunt recently for these famous 'rat catchers'.", "A little bit of research prior to the 'field work' revealed that some of these people from the Irula tribe stayed in the forests near Denakani-kottai (Tamil Nadu) but could speak well in Kannada. There began our quest.", "Recently, two men from the same Irula tribe were flown to Florida, US, to help the American state catch the Burmese pythons, which were rapidly breeding and feeding on native species, driving them to near-extinction. When their local efforts failed to show results, the two tribesmen from Tamil Nadu were called in for the job, along with two translators. Together, they managed to capture 13 snakes in less than two weeks, according to a report in the Washington Post.", "So, it was this famous tribe that we had our sights on. We headed out for the reserve forests near Denakanikottai (around 80 km from Bengaluru) and met Tamil Nadu's forest staff. When we asked them about the people we were looking for, they forwarded us to a few tribals who, they said, would be able to help us get to our rat catchers.", "We were taken to meet two Irula tribals (who were working as support staffers). Speaking in Kannada, these men said that they were from a different 'sub-caste' and didn't know anything about rats themselves, but knew some others who did. But tracking them down might be a tough job, we were warned. ", "As we moved ahead, the forest department staff warned us about a herd of elephant that was spotted nearby a while ago. Sure enough, we soon found fresh elephant droppings all along the road as well as a newly trampled path through the thick bamboos grooves.", "After travelling nearly 10 km through dense jungle, we reached a place called Tattikarai, which was up a hill and seemed untouched and pristine.", "A middle-aged guy on a two-wheeler said he could show us some colonies of tribals, and rest was for us to discover. As we went into this Irula colony, we found only children there. The elders had gone out into the fields for work. We asked the children if one of them could accompany us on our quest, but were readily informed that they were not free - they were left in charge of their younger siblings, who stood cutely gaping at us.", "We spotted a middle-aged woman in a house nearby, looking not too happy with our snooping around. She curtly informed us that people here were respectable and into farming and would never go around catching rats. According to her, we were obviously on a wild goose chase and were better off headed back home.", "The overcast sky threatened to send us scampering for cover, but after all this effort, the mission could not be aborted. So, we went back to a village called Kamagiri.", "In Kamagiri", "As we approached Kamagere village, we could see around a hundred people assembled at a spot. Curious about it, we approached them, cameras out, but were quickly told to put our shutters away - this was a sacred village meet and clicking photos would cause offence.. Apparently, two village groups had clashed and they had called a meeting to resolve the issue. The elders were obviously held in high regard and their word was the final on any major issue.", "While still enquiring, an elderly man seemed sympathetic towards our mission. He told us that there were many rat catchers, years ago, but most of these people had now migrated to big cities like Bengaluru in search of jobs. Before we had time to be disheartened, he told us there was still a lone man left (he is not an Irula). Of course, he lived on top of a hill... deep inside the forests... inaccessible by vehicles. This was turning out to be quite the adventure from a thriller novel.", "We asked this kindly old man if he could accompany us to our \"last-surviving\" rat catcher. \"I'm too frail to walk so much,\" he informed us. No amount of coaxing would change his mind. Moved by our determination, he eventually found a youngster who agreed to be our guide.", "The young man introduced himself as Shiva Kumar, who works as a driver in Bengaluru. And so, we set out on our final trek to the mountain top to meet our elusive rat catcher. As we walked through the thickets, for long, we couldn't find a single house. After several arduous climbs and scenic meadows, we spotted a house made of tiles and mud. An old lady sat cleaning ragi — our rat catcher's wife. The husband was not at home. He had gone to the nearby town for some personal work.", "It occurred to us then that perhaps catching a rat would have been easier than finding the catcher himself. While we mulled turning back empty-handed, the woman threw us a carrot: we could try our luck at the only bus-stop nearby. Her husband might be back in the next ride. Shiva Kumar, our trusted guide, knew the way to the stop.", "It was 1.50 pm and a cool breeze had dropped the temperature at his hill-top to a pleasant 24 degrees. We stood waiting at the stop while locals were curious to know why we had come all this way.", "About an hour later, some exclaimed that they could hear a bus coming. Thankfully, the Tamil Nadu state government bus was bang on time (3 pm). Around 10 passengers got down, the last one was Eranna - the man of the hour.", "From The Man Himself", "Finally, after the introductions and some coaxing, he started talking to us about the 'lost art'. He said: \"I learnt to catch rats from my father and grandfather who would take me hunting. As soon as I see a burrow, I know what kind of rat it is. If there are white rats, I would take a few well-built men along with me and close all the burrows except for one. Then, we would bring a pot with tiny holes made at the bottom. We would bring coconut shells and manure and try to burn it and keep it on one of the burrows and close it. We know just when to start digging. About 10-15 rats would have died in there. I take these rats back home and give them to my wife who makes the best delicacies out of them.\"", "He talked about rat meat with so much enthusiasm that we remembered the episode with the former Bihar Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi, a big advocate of rat meat. So much so that he wanted restaurants in his state to have it on the menu.", "But Eranna, aged about 60, had a word of caution. \"Not all rats are good to eat. There are a few large ones that are so poisonous that they can kill. But, there are a few rats which are found in the fields. I get a lot of calls from farmers to save the harvest. So I head there to catch these rats. It not only makes the farmer happy, but even me, because these are very tasty,\" he says.", "Eranna, who never went to school, says he has caught thousands of rats in his lifetime and is the only one left in hundreds of villages nearby. But while he knows that with him, the unique skill will be gone too, he does not feel the need to teach the younger generation. He wants them to work well. All his five children work in Bengaluru.", "SB Sidde Gowda, a man who once lived in a village nearby, said the rat catchers used to come to the villages soon after the harvest. They never caught any rats inside the village but only in the paddy and ragi fields.", "Their reward was not only the rats caught, but also the grains stolen and stored underground by the rodents. No one objected to this.", "The catchers were called \"toda idiyoru\" (toda catchers). Toda was a type of rat. The other common kind of rat was the \"moog ili\" (literally means 'nose rat', because of its longer nose). It was the 'toda' that stored grains underground. These rodents were found in groups of 20-30 and it was quite a sport to watch these skilled men at work. It wasn't uncommon for the village children to catch the 'holamalada ili' (field rat, literally) and eat it while out shepherding. No one ate the village rat, though.", "Considering how skilled the job is, we asked Eranna if he would make a living out of it in the city, given an opportunity. But Eranna clarified that he doesn't work for money, even though he knows very well that his skills would be of great use in pest control.", "He understands that a unique skill will be gone when he is. It's the problem with the current generation, he says, philosophically. There is little space or need for techniques of the past.", "Originally published in Bangalore Mirror", "just in" ]

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002) might be the worst movie ever made, according to critics.", "100 percent of the experts on Rotten Tomatoes rated Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever as \"rotten.\"", "That’s right: 115 out of 115 critics — let’s be honest, a pretty huge sample size — would take back the 90 minutes stolen from them, rating the film a green splat rather than a well-rounded tomato. Critics, when asked to rate it out of 10, gave it a measly 2.6, and general audiences gave it an even lower 2.2. \"Sometimes it’s surprising how stupid moviemakers think we are,\" John Wilson, founder of the Razzie Awards, which celebrates the worst movies every year, says. Representatives of Ballistic’s director, Wych Kaosayananda, did not respond to a request for comment.", "Lucky for Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever, it has some company in the zero-percent club. There’s Orgy of the Dead, Return to the Blue Lagoon and National Lampoon’s Gold Diggers. But these other movies have far fewer critics weighing in, so the criticism of Ballistic has more oomph ... more than any of its explosions. Full reviews skewered it more specifically: for plot holes, trying unsuccessfully to be like The Matrix, incoherent writing, clichéd tropes and difficult-to-follow storytelling. \"It was one bad surprise after another,\" critic Nell Minow says, looking back. Personally, we couldn’t hold it together every time the intense background music started up in a fight scene.", "Today we live in a kind of golden age for cult movies, where ironic love of cinematic failures from the past can bring people to late-night movie screenings and yield book deals years later to rehash the disastrous experience on set. Bad-movies aficionado Emer Prevost, who runs the YouTube channel \"Reaction & Review,\" says that Ballistic won’t cut it, though, as a cult movie. It takes a special kind of bad to also be entertaining. \"I took the DVD down to a local shop the next day. They said they could give me 60 cents for it. I said, ‘Good. Take it,’\" Prevost says.", "Of course, Ballistic probably won’t get to keep its place in bad movie history forever. Every year, the Razzies choose new terrible movies. Look back through time and the epitome of worst movie has changed as consistently as Ballistic’s characters’ motivations. Tastes differ on what’s not just bad but horrendous: Some say The Room is the worst; others, Plan 9 From Outer Space. And in all fairness, not everyone despises it. Critic Michelle Alexandria says, \"I don’t watch action films for story or even acting. A good action film only has to deliver on the action for me.\" So maybe make that 115 out of 116 critics. Ballistic: Alexandria vs. Critics." ]

[ "This is Mentoring Moments a series of stories about triumphs and skids from successful women. Mentoring Moments is now a podcast.", "I met Bronwyn Cosgrave as I was staring at a red bomber jacket. I just finished my Saturday morning Pilates class and decided to run over to Barneys in NYC for a quick look at the 60% off sale. That's when I spotted the red jacket I loved the color, but something about it wasn't quite right. I never ask strangers for clothing advice, but for some strange reason, I started talking to Cosgrave and asked her, What do you think about this jacket? We talked briefly and then I understood why I wanted her advice.", "Cosgrave is the former features editor of British Vogue and a contributing editor to Vogue India. She's the co-curator of Designing 007, Fifty Years of Bond Style, an exhibition that broke box office records when it debuted in London in 2012 and is now on it's way from Dubai to Portugal. In addition to Vogue, she has written on design, fashion and film for Architectural Digest, The New York Times, Vanity Fair and every important British newspaper you can think of. And what I heard loud and clear is that she has an ability to transform ideas into important grand scale projects. That's a real talent.", "I didn't buy that jacket (my gut and Cosgrave said no!), but that strange encounter led us to my kitchen table and a Mentoring Moments podcast. Here are five more tips I learned from Cosgrave, taken from our podcast in her words, edited and condensed:", "1. Take A Hike", "In this instant culture where you get text messages and emails, it's really vital to take a step back. It's particularly vital when you're getting feedback about something take a step back and think, Is that true? It could take a week or a walk around the block, but it definitely requires contemplation.", "2. Grow Your Idea ", "An idea doesn't have to be the right idea, it just has to be a good idea that could lead to the right idea.", "3. Get Unlost", "When I feel like I'm lost, I write things down. I keep a lot of notebooks. I write out my tasks, my goals, things I want to achieve and things I wish I hadn't done. I always try to tell the truth so if I make a mistake, I own up to it. I don't lie. I think that's really important. I try to live my life that way. I think it makes your life easier in the end.", "4. Value It", "You have to value what's around you. It's important to not take anything for granted in this life. It can be taken away from you in an instant. And to value what you've done. And to think when needed, I want to do better next time.", "5. I'm Done With...", "I'm done with negativity. What's it going to bring you? But it takes work to be positive. At one point in my life, I found this knack to flick on the positive switch. That's really important because it changes your demeanor. It changes the way you visualize the world. But it's tough to do.", "To hear more tips from Cosgrave including the stories behind the following quotes, check out our podcast.", "You just have to keep moving forward and really challenge yourself, because what else are you going to do?I'm done with wasting time with people who aren't bringing joy to my life.Professional jealousy any kind of jealousy is really destructive.If you want to make a new life, you need to be dedicated to it..Things don't go as planned. It's impossible because you just don't know. Gut instinct is important.I try to look pulled together and not have a lot of moving parts in my outfits.I've got something to learn from someone and that person can be 22 or 89. I'm open to that.Dump your baggage. Move on, don't' get stuck. It's vital to stay fresh. You just have to shake it up. " ]

It is a well-trodden trail, but the book provides a useful overview of the industry, explaining the incongruous mix of co-operation and cruelty in each link of the supply chain.", "Cocaine-trafficking is risky but enormously profitable. As Mr Saviano points out, a kilo of the drug costing $1,500 in Colombia fetches $12,000-$16,000 in Mexico and $77,000 if it makes it to Britain.. According to the accountant of Colombia’s Medellín drug mob, the group was trafficking 15 tonnes of cocaine into America every day in the 1980s. Thirty years later, the figures are still staggering. In Italy the Calabrian ’Ndrangheta has now overtaken the Sicilian Cosa Nostra as the country’s most powerful mafia group. It turns over an estimated €53 billion ($59 billion) a year, almost half of which comes from drug-trafficking.", "The book does a fine job of tracing the international co-operation required to get the drug to market. In Colombia, producers struck distribution deals with their Mexican counterparts after American authorities grew adept at intercepting their cocaine shipments. In exchange for a large chunk of the profits, the Mexicans agreed to move the drugs across the border. Alliances have also been formed with groups from further away. The Russian mafia supplies Latin American gangs with Soviet-era weapons. West African government officials store drug shipments off the coast.", "In an often grisly series of passages, Mr Saviano details some of the murderous national rivalries that occasionally make the front pages. In 2006 Mexico was plunged into violence when the president, Felipe Calderón, declared war on the drug gangs by sending 6,500 troops to the troubled state of Michoacán. Over 47,000 people were killed by violence associated with organised crime between 2006 and 2011, says the government. In the first six years of the drug war 31 Mexican mayors were killed, 13 of them in 2010 alone.", "The most vivid sections are those describing the industry’s countless victims: the young man from Guinea-Bissau who spends a flight to Lisbon praying that the 60 capsules of cocaine in his stomach will not burst; the Colombian beauty queen whose husband has disappeared; the American undercover agent who is tortured to death when his cover is blown, his body dumped beside a Mexican road.", "Structurally, the book is a bit of a mess. Lacking a coherent narrative, it is more a collection of articles, lurching from one topic to another. The effect is often disorientating and sometimes offputting. A chapter on Los Zetas, a ferocious group of Mexican traffickers composed of former soldiers, is followed, inexplicably, by a syrupy poem about cocaine. Better editing would have made for an easier read.", "Despite its shortcomings, the book lands a resounding thump to the solar plexus. Taken as a whole, it is an angry rebuke to all those—traffickers and politicians alike—who perpetuate the violence. \"I want to scream this loud enough so that people will know,\" writes Mr Saviano. His rage, both at his own predicament and that of other victims, is palpable. \"As terrible as it may seem, total legalisation may be the only answer,\" he concludes. By reminding readers of the senseless suffering wrought by the cocaine trade, this book makes a powerful case for a new approach." ]

Palazzo, a 2013 graduate, admired the work Herbst had done in improving the aesthetics of the campus, and was proud to see the first woman in charge of UConn.", "Those positive feelings faded, however, after Palazzo and six other current and former students filed a federal complaint against UConn in October, accusing the school of failing to properly handle reports of sexual harassment and assaults.", "Herbst initially responded to the complaint on Oct. 23, saying that the suggestion the university showed a \"deliberate indifference\" to sexual assault victims was \"demonstrably untrue.\" She added, \"No president or police chief will prevent\" all sexual assaults \"and should never, ever be so naïve to think so.\"", "Four of the women involved in the complaint later filed a lawsuit, and last week Herbst shifted her tone in a statement to trustees. \"For all of us at UConn, as long as there is a single sexual assault on any of our campuses, our work is not complete,\" Herbst said.", "But Palazzo said she feels let down. \"I so loved Susan Herbst, and for her as a woman to let us down like this is shocking, because she must've had so much to overcome to be where she is now,\" Palazzo said.", "In a hearing last week before a committee of the Connecticut General Assembly, Palazzo's fellow complainants, among them UConn senior Erica Daniels, testified that they too were dismayed by the administration's response. \"To not be taken seriously by the university was most upsetting,\" Daniels testified.", "Herbst declined interview requests by The Huffington Post.", "The defensive tone struck by UConn administrators reminded Annie Clark of how some officials at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill initially reacted to similar federal complaints she and four other women filed in January. A 2011 UNC graduate and sexual assault survivor advocate, Clark helped launch the Know Your IX and End Rape On Campus networks.", "The day after Clark and her co-complainants filed their claims against UNC, university counsel Leslie Strohm publicly called one of those allegations \"false,\" \"untrue\" and \"just plain wrong.\"", "\"I understand the immediate desire to defend, however, when you have multiple students who are brave enough to stand up and say they were sexually assaulted and their cases were thereafter mishandled.. As a university president, you have got to take that seriously,\" Clark said. \"To attack victims the way Herbst did originally sends a strong message to students to stay silent.\"", "UConn finds itself in a tricky situation, compared to other universities that currently face sexual assault investigations, since the institution has also been named in a federal lawsuit.", "Usually when a school is faced with an investigation by the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, the most expedient remedy is to admit to shortcomings as a way to conclude the investigation quickly. The department would then propose a voluntary resolution, often involving policy changes, to which the university could agree.", "But faced with a lawsuit, a university might prefer not to admit fault in order to avoid a large settlement. \"If there's two tracks going on, it makes it challenging for the university to respond,\" said Carmon Harvey, an attorney who advises higher education institutions on Title IX compliance.", "Harvey would advise an institution facing these sorts of accusations to show it is making an effort to \"get to the bottom of the problem, so you know whether there is a larger problem other than the complaint.\"", "Elizabeth Conklin, associate vice president of UConn's Office of Diversity and Equity, told lawmakers earlier this month that the school had \"rolled out a series of trainings and policies designed\" to increase sexual misconduct reporting.", "But Brittnie Carrier, a UConn junior in the campus IX Coalition, is unhappy that Herbst's Task Force on Civility and Campus Culture now appears to be taking up the issue of sexual misconduct at UConn in the context of \"civility,\" as if on par with people loitering on sidewalks.", "\"The way we're talking about sexual violence, it seems like it shouldn't be talked about in terms of civility,\" Carrier said. \"Why would you want to be civil with a rapist? They are attacking your body!\"", "Carrier also was displeased that the issue of sexual violence was not mentioned in campus-wide invitations sent this month to a so-called Open Forum intended to \"Promot[e] Positive Change in Campus,\" at which students could question the task force.", "\"While the Title IX complaint and sexual assaults on campus are certainly on everyone's minds, they are not the totality of what the task force is charged with,\" said Nancy Naples, a member of the task force and the director of Women's, Gender & Sexuality Studies at UConn. The forum did end up focusing largely on sexual violence, nonetheless, Naples said.", "Naples said there has been significant movement to address students' concerns around sexual misconduct in the past year, but more needs to be done.", "\"As an individual faculty member, I can say that I do think there have been many missteps regarding the handling of sexual harassment and sexual violence on campus,\" Naples said, \"both in terms of coordination of responses and insensitivity of first responders.\"", "Naples said the WGSS faculty's efforts to address on sexual violence pre-date the complaint and lawsuit, and vowed they will continue after the legal grievances are resolved.", "\"I still feel like they don't want to say it's a problem here, and they don't want to talk about it,\" Carrier said. She conceded the university is taking steps to address students' concerns, but in her opinion, \"not things that are actually helpful.\"" ]

But should the cast ever need to retreat indoors, they can kill the time by indulging in Fugit’s newfound Dungeons & Dragons hobby.", "\"I had never played as a kid, but three or four years ago, one of my best friends was having their game while I was over,\" Fugit said. \"I tried it out, and it’s fucking fun! It’s really interesting as an actor, because it’s like an improv exercise.\" Fugit’s go-to character? \"I play a halfling assassin named Bandy Swiftpet.\" (\"That sounds like your porn name!\" Glenister notes.)", "As for the future of Outcast, Fugit promises an especially unsavory gross-out during an upcoming flashback sequence. But what about the inevitable Outcast/Outkast cross-over, in which the Southern hip-hop stars team up with the rural exorcists to pull of a musical-filled caper? Spoiler alert, but according to Fugit: \"You just described the season finale.\"" ]

[ "This is probably the biggest tax you pay. No one talks about it." ]

[ "The political debate over taxes often centers on income tax — a tax that gets increasingly larger for Americans who earn more money.", "For example, every dollar you make under $9,275 is taxed at 10 percent — but every dollar you make over $415,050 is taxed at 39.6 percent. For obvious reasons, this type of tax is less popular with higher-income Americans.", "But there are other federal taxes that Americans pay, too, the biggest of which are payroll taxes. Whether you earn $5,000 or $100,000, Americans pay up to 15.3 percent of their income to the government — largely to support Social Security and Medicare. (Some payroll taxes are levied on your employer, who is likely to pass down some or all of it to you. This is why the amount you are on the hook for is tough to pin down.) And income over $118,500 isn't subject to Social Security taxes, which means those who earn more start paying a smaller percentage of their income into payroll taxes.", "Politicians don't spend much time debating the payroll taxes, and most of us don't spend much time thinking about them, either. In fact, most people don't even search the internet for the taxes on their pay stub called \"Medicare\" and \"Social Security,\" which are payroll taxes.", "Here's a chart that shows how the terms compare, in terms of Google search volume:", "Payroll taxes don't factor into the political debate as much as income taxes, but they should: Most middle-class families pay more in payroll taxes than they do in income tax. Having an income tax–dominated debate presents a skewed picture of how all taxpayers fund the government. My colleague Dylan Matthews writes:", "The taxes the privileged pay [end up] worthy of attention and the ones the poor pay are ignored. It paints a picture where the government is being supported on the backs of the wealthy, and the poor and middle class are free-riding.. It leads to plans for various kinds of tax cuts and tax reforms that matter massively for the rich and very little for the poor.", "That's why we charted out historical tax rates in the interactive above. You see that payroll taxes have been rising steadily while the top rates for income taxes have come down quite a bit. But as the search data shows, there just isn't much talk about the taxes that put the biggest burden on the middle class.", "An earlier version of this story did not point out that income over $118,500 isn't subject to Social Security taxes.", "How candidate's tax plans could affect your wallet" ]

[ "What are the five most addictive substances on Earth?" ]

[ "What are the most addictive drugs? This question seems simple, but the answer depends on whom you ask. From the points of view different researchers, the potential for a drug to be addictive can be judged in terms of the harm it causes, the street value of the drug, the extent to which the drug activates the brain’s dopamine system , how pleasurable people report the drug to be, the degree to which the drug causes withdrawal symptoms, and how easily a person trying the drug will become hooked.", "There are other facets to measuring the addictive potential of a drug, too, and there are even researchers who argue that no drug is always addictive. Given the varied view of researchers, then, one way of ranking addictive drugs is to ask expert panels. In 2007, David Nutt and his colleagues asked addiction experts to do exactly that – with some interesting findings.", "5. Nicotine", "Nicotine is the main addictive ingredient of tobacco. When somebody smokes a cigarette, nicotine is rapidly absorbed by the lungs and delivered to the brain. While Nutt et al’s expert panels rated nicotine (tobacco) as only the 12th most addictive substance, there are reasons to believe that nicotine is a very powerful addictive drug.", "4. Barbiturates (‘downers’)", "Barbiturates – also known as blue bullets, gorillas, nembies, barbs and pink ladies – are a class of drugs that were initially used to treat anxiety and to induce sleep . They interfere with chemical signalling in the brain, the effect of which is to shut down various brain regions. At low doses, barbiturates cause euphoria, but at higher doses they can be lethal because they suppress breathing. Barbiturate dependence was common when the drugs were easily available by prescription, but this has declined dramatically as other drugs have replaced them. This highlights the role that the context plays in addiction: if an addictive drug is not widely available, it can do little harm. Nutt et al’s expert panels rated barbiturates as the fourth most addictive substance.", "3. Cocaine", "Crack cocaine has been ranked by experts as being the third most damaging drug and powdered cocaine, which causes a milder high, as the fifth most damaging. About 21% of people who try cocaine will become dependent on it at sometime in their life. Cocaine is similar to other addictive stimulants, such as methamphetamine – which is becoming more of a problem as it becomes more widely available – and amphetamine.", "2. Alcohol", "Although legal in the US and UK, alcohol was rated as the second most addictive substance by Nutt et al.’s experts (scoring 2.2 out of a maximum of 3). Alcohol has many effects on the brain, but in laboratory experiments on animals it increased dopamine levels in the brain’s reward system by 40-360% – and the more the animals drank the more dopamine levels increased.", "1. Heroin", "Nutt et al.’s experts ranked heroin as the most addictive drug, giving it a score of 2.5 out of a maximum score of 3. Heroin is an opiate that causes the level of dopamine in the brain’s reward system to increase by up to 200% in experimental animals . In addition to being arguably the most addictive drug, heroin is dangerous, too, because the dose that can cause death is only five times greater than the dose required for a high." ]

Checking menus at locations next to Bloomberg offices in New York, Tokyo, Frankfurt and London, the effect of the strong dollar is quite clear.

What ever happened as a result of that study, if anything?", "Current cholesterol testing guidelines in the United States stipulate that fasting before a cholesterol test is \"preferred.\" But repeated studies have found no clinically significant differences between results from cholesterol tests done on a full stomach and those done after fasting.", "Fasting may provide a more accurate assessment of triglyceride levels, another measure of heart risk. But \"it doesn’t matter if you eat\" before a cholesterol test if the main goal is to evaluate LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, said Dr. Mary Norine Walsh, the president-elect of the American College of Cardiology.", "\"One of the barriers to getting cholesterol testing done is that patients arrive at the doctor’s office not fasting, and then it doesn’t get done,\" Dr. Walsh said. She runs the test even if patients have eaten before an appointment and encourages other doctors to do the same.", "Among the studies that found that fasting may have little impact on cholesterol blood test results was a large 2012 Canadian study of more than 200,000 people that found average levels for HDL and total cholesterol varied less than 2 percent, regardless of whether people had eaten an hour earlier or fasted for 16 hours. LDL cholesterol levels varied by less than 10 percent whether patients had fasted or not, and triglyceride levels varied by less than 20 percent, that study found.", "Many European countries no longer recommend that patients fast before a cholesterol test. Nonfasting lipid testing has been standard in Denmark since 2009, and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, which develops guidelines in Britain, has endorsed nonfasting lipid testing for the primary prevention of heart disease since 2014. More recently, a joint consensus statement by the European Atherosclerosis Society and European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine reviewed the evidence and agreed that fasting is not routinely required for a lipid profile.", "Fasting \"is just one of those things that gets started and just carries on and on,\" said Dr. Borge G. Nordestgaard, the first author of the consensus document, which was published in the European Heart Journal. He noted that nonfasting triglycerides might be higher after someone eats fat, though not by much, and that the nonfasting sample would be more realistic, providing a \"better picture of what the average lipid levels in the patient are.\"", "Even eating high-cholesterol foods like eggs or shrimp on the day of a cholesterol test, he said, would have little impact on results. \"Cholesterol levels change extremely slowly in response to food intake. That is why it is so difficult to get your cholesterol down by changing food habits,\" he said.", "Eliminating the need to fast just \"makes it much easier for everybody,\" Dr. Nordestgaard said." ]

[ "Penny Hardaway was an NBA Megastar, but you can't imagine what he's doing now!" ]

[ "YouTube Anfernee \"Penny\" Hardaway was considered the type of talent you'd see maybe once a decade. At 6'6\", the guard had size and ball-handling skill comparable to Magic Johnson, along with speed, athleticism and scoring ability believed to challenge the great Michael Jordan. In a modern era where tall, well-rounded wing players are increasingly common, Hardaway was the original. During his time with the Orlando Magic, Hardaway looked poised to take over the league as the four-time All-Star quickly established himself as one of the premiere talents in the Eastern Conference along with then teammate and rising star, Shaquille O'Neal. His well-rounded game made him a shoo-in for the 1996 U.S. Olympic Team, and there he won a gold medal. Advertisement Ultimately, despite his success in Orlando, a nearly career-ending knee injury put him on ice for the 1997-1998 NBA season and would eventually send him to the Phoenix Suns. However, to lend credence to just how special a player Hardaway was, he got a seven-year contract worth $86 million, despite coming off of an injury that would likely derail most modern-day careers for good.He would never fully return to his peak, retiring in 2007. Off the court, Hardaway's campaign with Nike was one of the most successful, birthing some of the most popular sneakers of the 1990s, the Foamposite . In addition to his famed partnership with Nike, Hardaway also had various lucrative endeavors ranging from a salon and barbershop to a celebrity fitness center, Terf Athletic Facility, in Miami. Needless to say, Hardaway, who according to CNN , \"made more than $120 million in a pro basketball career that spanned 16 seasons,\" is pretty much set for life financially. So why is it that he would return to his hometown of Memphis, Tenn., to, of all things, coach a middle school basketball team? He did it for his friend Desmond Merriweather, who above all else, wanted to ensure that his boys would have a coach while he battled colon cancer. Merriweather sadly passed on Feb. 8 , but with the help of Hardaway his dream was fulfilled." ]

[ "The surprising thing that may change about your vision when you get older" ]

[ "Most of us anticipate our eyesight getting worse as we get older: blurred vision, the need for more light to see, the list goes on and on. But a new study shows that the risk of abnormal color vision could also go up as people reach elderly age.", "The study, published in the journal Optometry and Vision Science, shows that the rate of abnormal color vision increases, starting at around age 70.", "Researchers from The Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute administered two color vision tests to 865 adults ages 58 to 102, none of whom had \"color-blindness.\" One of tests was easier than the other; the easier one was \"designed to only detect defects sufficiently severe to affect performance in daily life.\"", "Of the people in the study, 40 percent had abnormal results on the tests, and 20 percent of people failed both of the tests altogether. However, the failure rate was significantly higher among people over age 70.", "About 45 percent of people in their mid-70s experienced abnormalities in color vision, researchers found. The rate was even higher for people age 85 and older (up to 50 percent) and people in their mid-90s (nearly 66 percent).", "Researchers also noted that nearly 20 percent of the older people in the study failed the easier test, suggesting that this abnormal color vision could affect their ability to engage in tasks that require accurate color vision.", "However, the type of color vision abnormalities experienced most commonly by older people seems to be different from that of people who have inherited color-blindness. Most of the age-related color vision issues involved confusing lighter blue shades with lighter purple shades, and confusing yellow with green or yellow-green. Meanwhile, people with inherited color blindness are more likely to experience color vision abnormalities with red and green.", "While the study did not look at causes of the abnormal color vision, the researchers noted some possible reasons could include yellowing of the eye lens and smaller pupil size (which would then lead to less light coming in to the eye), as well as increased rates of age-related eye diseases, such as glaucoma." ]

[ "However, Tarantino also spoke about how difficult casting the character was, even admitting that he thought about abandoning the movie before he met Waltz. \"I was getting worried,\" he said. \"Unless I found the perfect Landa, I was going to pull the movie. I gave myself one more week and then I was going to pull the plug. Then Christoph Waltz came in and it was obvious that he was the guy; he could do everything. He was amazing, he gave us our movie back.\"", "\"Landa is the best character I’ve written and maybe the best I ever will write,\" Tarantino said, according to Screen Daily . \"I didn’t realize [when I was first writing him] that he was a linguistic genius. He’s probably one of the only Nazis in history who could speak perfect Yiddish.\"", "From Django Unchained‘s Django ( Jamie Foxx ) to Kill Bill‘s Beatrix Kiddo (Uma Thurman), Quentin Tarantino is known for his films’ strong characters. But while speaking at the Jerusalem Film Festival Friday, the 53-year-old director revealed that one role stands out to him: Inglourious Basterds‘ Col. Hans Landa, played by Christoph Waltz." ]

[ "Kids Found These Orphan Cats In A Ditch. When They Got To The Shelter, They Got A BIG Surprise." ]

[ "When a few baby animals were separated from their mother by a group of rock-throwing children in Hoedspruit, South Africa, it seemed like there was little hope for them.", "But the good people at the Daktari Bush School and Wildlife Orphanage weren’t ready to give up on them. All they needed to survive was a mother’s love, and they knew exactly where to find it.", "The story began when children in Hoedspruit, South Africa threw rocks at an animal, forcing her to abandon her babies. The animals were genets, a carnivorous creature found in Africa and Europe.", "Her babies were found lying helpless in a puddle. Other kids found the little babies and contacted their local pastor. That’s when he alerted the nonprofit Daktari Bush School and Wildlife Orphanage , an organization that educates local kids about how to take care of the environment and its animals.", "The genets were picked up by orphanage co-founders Ian and Michelle Merrifield. At only two weeks old, it was unclear whether or not they would survive. They needed lacked the warmth and milk of their mother, and that’s when a poodle-cocker spaniel mix named Candy stepped in.", "Though the Merrifields did everything they could to take care of the genets, giving them blankets and feeding them warm milk through a syringe, it was really Candy that saved their lives. She immediately took an interest in the genets, and the genets warmed up to her as well. They even tried to nurse on her.", "Amazingly, Candy began producing milk! While she had puppies in the past, she didn’t have any at the moment, and wasn’t even pregnant at the time... but apparently, her maternal hormones had kicked in anyway.", "Each of the baby genets – named Sakka, Chouchou, and Maswika – gets fed by their adoptive mother every day, but since dog milk doesn’t produce as much calcium as that of a genet, the Merrifields add a calcium supplement to their diet.", "Ian says that the only humans – or animals in general – that Candy seems to trust to be around her babies are him and Michele. Candy is extremely protective and gets jealous!", "With Candy’s help, Maswika and Sakka have grown up to be so healthy and strong that they were able to be released back into the wild. Chouchou is staying at the Daktari center, however, because the stress of being out on her own in the wild proved to be too much for her.", "But hey, at least that means Candy and Chouchou will get more time for cuddles!", "A mother’s love is clearly not limited to her own species. I never thought this was possible, but it makes so much sense!" ]

For Daredevil and company though, the studio has made a point to set the Netflix universe in a world where the events of the MCU take place far outside the scope of our heroes. And while it’s well-established that the Avengers exist somewhere in Daredevil’s world, the main heroes of the Marvel franchise are an afterthought in the greater narrative." ]

It's estimated that children ages 8 to 18 spend an average of seven hours a day behind screens; teens send an average of 3,417 text messages each month; and 97 percent of adolescents have at least one electronic device in their bedrooms.", "What's just as scary as how much time kids spend on screens is the effect it can have on their health. Their backs and wrists are sore, their sleep is disrupted and their attention spans are diminished.", "While it would be impossible to rid your kids' lives of technology completely -- and you wouldn't want to, because of its many joys and benefits -- parents can take a few measures to help prevent its negative mental and physical side effects.", "Here are some ways screens may be harming your kids' bodies and what you can do about it:", "They're Hunched Over, And Their Necks And Upper Backs Are Sore", "The human body's natural position is an erect posture with a little bit of lordosis (inward curve) in the neck and a bit of kyphosis (round curve) in the upper back.

In a recent study, 61 percent of obese boys and 63 percent of obese girls reported watching television for two or more hours each day. Studies have also suggested that TV viewing habits in childhood can predict obesity risk in adulthood.", "What To Do: According to government guidelines, kids and teens should get at least one hour of moderate to vigorous physical activity each day at least three times a week to increase strength and develop strong muscles.", "Their Fingers And Wrists Are Suffering", "Wrist and finger pain is common in kids who play video games. A study (done by a kid!) found that children were 50 percent more likely to experience pain for every hour they spent gaming.

While teens' eyes can get used to screens, Epley said, damage can develop over time and even cause myopia, or nearsightedness.", "What To Do: The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends that a computer user shift focus away from a screen every 20 minutes and take 20 seconds to look at something that is at least 20 feet away. \"This gets you blinking again,\" Epley said. \"And restores moisture to the surface of the eye.\"", "Their Sleep Is Disrupted", "According to a 2010 Pew Study, 4 out of 5 teenagers sleep with their cell phones on and near their beds.

The light can confuse the brain since our circadian pacemaker does not differentiate between the sun and a computer screen. \"Teens are getting this bright light and it's making them go to bed later and want to sleep later,\" said Decker, \"but they can't deal with the sleep loss.\" Not getting enough sleep has a psychological effect on teens, and can lead to irritability and poor social skills. Memory is also negatively affected, which in turn can diminish academic performance.", "What To Do: The National Sleep Foundation recommends that teenagers get 9..25 hours of sleep each night (although for some kids, 8.5 hours is enough)..

[ "Here’s what happens if you take the morning-after pill all the time" ]

[ "Let’s get to the bottom of this, once and for all.", "1. The morning-after pill is a form of emergency contraception that can prevent pregnancy when taken after having unprotected sex.", "It comes in a few different forms, but the morning-after pill most often refers to Plan B One-Step (and generics like Next Choice One Dose), which can be purchased over the counter. It’s a single pill with a high dose of levonorgestrel, the same progestin hormone found in many birth control pills, and it can be used up to 72 hours (three days) after unprotected sex.", "Another pill option is Ella, or ulipristal acetate, which can be used up to 120 hours (five days) after unprotected sex, but it requires a prescription. Both Plan B and Ella primarily work by delaying ovulation, and they may in some cases also work by preventing a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus.", "Although we’ll focus on the pills in this article, it’s worth mentioning that the copper IUD can also be used as an emergency contraceptive. It’s extremely effective if inserted within five days of unprotected sex and offers pregnancy protection for up to 10 years.", "2. FYI: The morning-after pill is not the same as the abortion pill.", "Emergency contraception pills like Plan B and Ella will not terminate an existing pregnancy. It’s not the same as the abortion pill, otherwise known as a medical abortion, where a person takes a combination of mifepristone and misoprostol to terminate an early pregnancy.", "3. Since the morning-after pill is really meant for emergencies, you might be wondering if it’s harmful to take it too often.", "BuzzFeed Health reached out to two experts to find out: Dr. Alyssa Dweck, board-certified OB-GYN, author of The Complete A to Z for Your V; and Dr. Lauren Streicher, associate clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University’s medical school, and author of Sex Rx.", "4. First let’s start with Ella, the prescription-only morning-after pill.. This one should not be taken more than once per menstrual cycle.", "Ella has a different active ingredient than Plan B, and according to its website, it shouldn’t be taken more than once per menstrual cycle. \"I would say repeated use of Ella has not been well-studied and is not recommended,\" says Streicher.", "Additionally, using Ella with hormonal birth control pills can reduce the effectiveness of both preventing pregnancy, so you should wait at least five days after taking Ella to resume your birth control.", "But because Ella requires a doctor’s visit and prescription, you’d probably have to jump through a lot of hoops to take it frequently. So aside from it not being recommended, repeated use of Ella would also take up a lot of your time and money. So...just don’t do it.", "5. On the other hand, taking Plan B is basically like taking a ton of birth control at once. And it isn’t going to hurt you if you take it multiple times.", "Actually, the morning-after pill is even safer and more tolerable than taking a ton of birth control because it only contains levonorgestrel, whereas most birth control pills also have estrogen. \"In the past, women who needed emergency contraception would just take a super-high dose of birth control, but the estrogen just caused a lot of nausea and vomiting,\" Dweck tells BuzzFeed Health.", "So they made one pill with fewer side effects but enough hormones to still prevent pregnancy. \"It’s very safe and well-tolerated, even in women who aren’t able to take some birth control pills because of clotting disorders,\" says Dweck.", "Even if you take it while you’re already on hormonal birth control — for example, after missing more than three pills and having unprotected sex — it’s still safe. \"It’s not going to harm you — it’s really just a little extra progesterone on top of the birth control,\" Dweck says.", "6. Obviously, though, taking such a high dose of hormones could cause irregular bleeding and mess with your menstrual cycle — which isn’t ideal.", "\"About 16% of women report side effects like nausea, vomiting, or irregular bleeding,\" says Dweck. But the main downside is that it can cause a lot of menstrual irregularity. Depending on how often you take the morning-after pill, it can throw off your cycle for weeks or even months, says Streicher. And a messed-up cycle can make it harder to prevent pregnancy if you aren’t using another method like condoms.", "\"You never know for sure when you are ovulating, even less so if you have taken a big dose of hormones that may interfere with your normal cycle,\" Streicher says. So you should always remember to use a backup barrier method when you’re having sex after taking emergency contraception.", "Plus, it’s a lot of unnecessary hormones when you just could be on a more reliable, low-dose method.. For instance, if you have unprotected sex 20 times in one month (and take Plan B 20 times in one month), that’s a lot of progestin to take as opposed to taking a small, regular dose every day — not to mention a lot of spotting or bleeding.", "7. But there’s no evidence that repeated use of Plan B will cause permanent damage to your reproductive organs or cause infertility.", "\"It’s a very safe drug, and taking it multiple times won’t kill you or cause any permanent damage, infertility, or even blood clots,\" Dweck says. So no, there are really no long-term implications of regularly using the morning-after pill.", "\"We know that hormones in emergency contraceptives, which are just a different dosage of the same ones found in birth control pills, have no impact on fertility whatsoever,\" says Streicher. So it’s best not to panic or stress if you’ve taken it many times or point to that as a cause of any fertility issues down the road.", "8. So why do the experts still advise against using Plan B regularly? Because it simply isn’t as effective as other birth control methods.", "Unlike more reliable methods, the morning-after pill’s effectiveness decreases the longer you wait to take it after unprotected sex, says Streicher. According to Plan B’s prescribing information, it helps prevent nearly 7 out of 8 potential pregnancies (about 87%), but other studies on levonorgestrel have found the effectiveness can vary from 52–100%.", "Compared with the efficacy of other birth control methods, this isn’t really your best bet for pregnancy prevention. For instance, long-acting methods like the IUD and implant are both over 99% effective. Combined birth control pills are also over 99% effective with perfect use or 91% effective with typical use.", "\"So you really have a higher chance of getting pregnant if the morning-after pill is your primary birth control,\" says Dweck.", "9. What can increase your risk of infertility is all the unprotected (so, without a condom) sex you have before taking the morning-after pill.", "\"Frequent unprotected sex means you’re more likely to get an STI, and we know that untreated STIs impact fertility and ovarian function,\" says Streicher. And it’s easy for STIs to go untreated when many of them have no symptoms at all.", "The number one cause of infertility is age, but the number one preventable cause of infertility is actually untreated chlamydia — which can also cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), potentially fatal ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic pain.", "\"Even if taking emergency contraception frequently doesn’t cause harm, it could still technically be harmful if it means you’re having a lot of unprotected sex and exposing yourself to STIs,\" Dweck says.", "10. Finally, emergency contraception can get pricey — up to $50 a pop — so frequent use will cost you a lot of money.", "\"It’s a very, very expensive way to provide contraception and there are so many better, cheaper options,\" says Streicher. For instance, Plan B sold over the counter at most pharmacies and grocery stores usually costs about $50 per pill, with generics usually priced around $40 (but we also recently found it on Seamless for almost $70).", "So depending on how often you take it, you could be spending hundreds of dollars each month, and that’s for a product that’s less effective than other options.", "11. There’s definitely a time and place for the morning-after pill, but it’s not the most effective or affordable option for reliable birth control.", "The morning-after pill is an amazing drug, Dweck says, and it exists because there are situations where it is necessary or the right option for some women.", "\"But it still shouldn’t be used on a regular basis, because we have so many reliable forms of birth control that cause fewer side effects, cost less, and that are more effective at preventing pregnancy,\" Dweck says.", "If you’re on birth control pills but still take emergency contraception occasionally because you missed a few pills or your pack looks like a game of Connect 4, you might want to consider a long-acting method like the IUD or implant.", "Remember, the ~right~ birth control option will vary from person to person, so talk to your doctor about your unique lifestyle and contraceptive needs, and they’ll help you find something that works for you.", "12. And if you’ve already taken the morning-after pill a handful of times, don’t stress or worry that you’ve caused long-term damage — it’s totally safe." ]

For the first several seasons, the series also received money from the European Regional Development Fund — created to spur economic growth across the EU — which would’ve been affected by the Leave vote, but I hear that GoT stopped receiving subsidies through that fund one or two seasons ago.

[ "Is There A Difference Between VISA And MasterCard? Here's The Answer" ]

[ "Down on the right hand side corner of your debit or credit card sits a logo that you have ignored for the longest time. The logo either says MasterCard or VISA. Ever wondered that if it's your bank that provides you with the money, what role does MasterCard or VISA play? Or better, is there any difference between the two? Here, let's take a look.", "© ctvnews", "The Role Of Master Card And VISA", "Visa and MasterCard are world's biggest credit card networks that act as intermediaries between the bank and the customers. Simply put, it's a gateway that authorizes a transaction when you swipe your card. They are NOT the issuer of the cards you use. It's a bank's job to issue the cards. VISA and MasterCard negotiate the setting up of payment system with banks and other lending associations. While VISA claims to have a user base of 2.4 billion, MasterCard claims to process over 18 billion transaction per year.", "Is There Really A Difference Between The Two?", "© YouTube", "The right answer would be, no. There's no ‘major' difference between the two payment systems. The only difference that can be found between the two is in regards of the services and security features they provide. There used to be a sea of difference between the acceptances of MasterCard and Visa with Master Card being accepted by the majority of the merchants.", "However, this is no longer the case." ]

Or even \"proof\" of technologies being older than we think. Take this mobile telephone from 1922, for example. People were quite confused when the film was posted online a few years ago. The title cards explained that it was a mobile telephone. But the terminology that people used for radio during the late 1910s and early 1920s often included the term wireless telephone.

The reports also include photos of cars taken by private companies using automated license plate readers—billions of snapshots tagged with GPS coordinates and time stamps to help PIs surveil people or bust alibis.", "IDI also runs two coupon websites, allamericansavings.com and samplesandsavings.com, that collect purchasing and behavioral data. When I signed up for the latter, I was asked for my e-mail address, birthday, and home address, information that could easily link me with my idiCORE profile. The site also asked if I suffered from arthritis, asthma, diabetes, or depression, ostensibly to help tailor its discounts.", "Users and industry analysts say the addition of purchasing and behavioral data to conventional data fusion outmatches rival systems in terms of capabilities—and creepiness. \"The cloud never forgets, and imperfect pictures of you composed from your data profile are carefully filled in over time,\" says Roger Kay, president of Endpoint Technologies Associates, a consulting firm. \"We’re like bugs in amber, completely trapped in the web of our own data.\"", "When logging in to IDI and similar databases, a PI must select a permissible use for a search under U.S. privacy laws. The Federal Trade Commission oversees the industry, but PI companies are largely expected to police themselves, because a midsize outfit may run thousands of searches a month.", "Dubner says most Americans have little to fear. As examples, he cites idiCORE uses such as locating a missing person and nabbing a fraud or terrorism suspect.", "IDI, like much of the data-fusion industry, traces its lineage to Hank Asher, a former cocaine smuggler and self-taught programmer who began fusing sets of public data from state and federal governments in the early 1990s. After Sept. 11, law enforcement’s interest in commercial databases grew, and more money and data began raining down, says Julia Angwin, a reporter who wrote about the industry in her 2014 book, Dragnet Nation .", "Asher died suddenly in 2013, leaving behind his company, the Last One (TLO), which credit bureau TransUnion bought in bankruptcy for $154 million. Asher’s disciples, including Dubner, left TLO and eventually teamed up with Michael Brauser, a former business partner of Asher’s, and billionaire health-care investor Phillip Frost. In May 2015, after a flurry of purchases and mergers, the group rebranded its database venture as IDI.", "Besides pitching its databases to big-name PIs (Kroll, Control Risks), law firms, debt collectors, and government agencies, IDI says it’s also targeting consumer marketers. The 200-employee company had revenue of about $40 million in its most recent quarter and says 2,800 users signed up for idiCORE in the first month after its May release. It declined to provide more recent figures. The company’s data sets are growing, too. In December, Frost helped underwrite IDI’s $100 million acquisition of marketing profiler Fluent, which says it has 120 million profiles of U.S. consumers. In June, IDI bought ad platform Q Interactive for a reported $21 million in stock.", "IDI may need Frost’s deep pockets for a while. The PI industry’s three favorite databases are owned by TransUnion and media giants Reed Elsevier and Thomson Reuters. \"There’s no shortage,\" says Chuck McLaughlin, chairman of the board of the World Association of Detectives, which has about 1,000 members. \"The longer you’re in business, the more data you have, the better results.\" He uses TLO and Tracers Information Specialists.", "Steve Rambam, a PI who hosts Nowhere to Hide on the Investigation Discovery channel, says marketing data remains a niche monitoring tool compared with social media, but its power can be unparalleled. \"You may not know what you do on a regular basis, but I know,\" Rambam says. \"I know it’s Thursday, you haven’t eaten Chinese food in two weeks, and I know you’re due.\"", "—With Olga Kharif", "The bottom line: IDI’s marketing databases may help PIs predict people’s moves or digitally peek into their cars or medicine cabinets." ]

[ "Passing out food at award shows has now become something of a \"thing,\" starting when Ellen DeGeneres handed out pizza at the Academy Awards two years ago. After all, famous people get hungry, too—especially those who have been subsisting on \"kale and dust\" for weeks to fit into their unforgiving $5,000 Prada gowns.", "For last night’s Emmys, host Jimmy Kimmel tasked the kid actors from the absurdly popular Netflix series Stranger Things with handing out peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, which—according to the gag, anyway—were being prepared backstage in the thousands by Kimmel’s own mother. The pre-teen squad—Millie Bobby Brown, Caleb McLaughlin, and Gaten Matarazzo—cruised down the aisles of the ceremony on their signature cruiser bikes, distributing the sandwiches, along with juice boxes and motherly handwritten notes, to attendees. It was all fun and fanfare (damn, Eleven in that blonde wig is just the cutest thing!)... until it wasn’t. This is why we can’t have nice things.", "First of all, Los Angeles Times writer Gerrick D. Kennedy had some rather unkind words about the composition and quality of the sandwich, and was less-than-impressed that they were being carted around in those blue IKEA bags.", "Actress Emily Ratajkowski was similarly unimpressed, telling TMZ that they \"weren’t that good.\"", "How badly can one fuck up a PB&J? Did they use bottom-of-the-barrel raspberry jam and crunchy all-natural peanut butter on stale multigrain bread, or something? Even that sounds halfway decent, on second thought.", "Tom Colicchio was more forgiving, however.", "Although Kimmel made jokes about the gluten and peanut content of the incoming meals to warn those with food allergies—\"We can only afford one EpiPen,\" he joked, also commenting that those with gluten allergies were \"annoying\"—there was apparently still chatter about whether it was irresponsible to pass out snacks containing nuts at all. (\"You never just hand out peanut butter. That’s such a liability,\" one Emmy guest reportedly complained within earshot of the LA Times reporters who were on-site.)", "Regarding the incident, Adam Bailine, VP of Marketing and Communications at the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, told MUNCHIES: \"We received complaints and concerns regarding the broadcast. This is very much on our radar... It is extremely risky to pull a stunt like this without considering the danger.\"", "Bailine also included a statement that the organization issued to ABC today regarding the dangers of handing out peanut products and making light of food allergies.", "\"While we understand the joke presented by Jimmy Kimmel was aimed at the recent pricing events of epinephrine auto-injectors that has been broadcast in the media over the last several weeks, it wasn’t well-received by the larger food allergy community,\" read one portion of the statement.", "Then, to complicate this attempted act of adorableness even further, McLaughlin and Matarazzo mentioned at an after-party that they didn’t receive any sandwiches for their own enjoyment. Unpaid labor? Justice for the Stranger Things kids!", "What did we just witness? We thought we were at the Microsoft Theater, but maybe it was the Upside Down." ]

[ "You will have to make a decision about whether you will ask what she already knows. If you were the one to call her and tell her that her son had been shot then you have already done part of it, but you have not done it yet. You are about to do it now. You never make her wait. She is his mother. Now you explode the world. Yes, you have to. You say something like: \"Mrs. Booker. I have terrible, terrible news. Ernest died today.\"", "Then you wait.", "You will not stand up. You may leave yourself in the heaviness of your breath or the racing of your pulse or the sight of your shoelaces on your shoe, but you will not stand up. You are here for her. She is his mother.", "If the mother has another son with her and he has punched the wall or broken the chair, do not be worried. The one that punched the wall or broke the chair will be better than the one who looks down and refuses to cry. The one who punched the wall or broke the chair will be much easier than the sister who looks up and closes her eyes as they fill.", "Security is already outside the room and when they hear the first loud noise they will know to come in. No, you will not have to tell them. They know about the family room in the emergency department in summer in North Philadelphia. It is all right. They will be kind. If the chair cannot be sat in again that is all right. We have money for new chairs every summer. If he does not break your chair you stay in your chair. If he does you find a new place to sit. You are here for the mother and you have more to do.", "If she asks you, you will tell her what you know. You do not lie. But do not say he was murdered or he was killed. Yes, I know that he was, but that is not what you say. You say that he died; that is the part that you saw and that you know. When she asks if he felt any pain, you must be very careful. If he did not, you assure her quickly. If he did, you do not lie. But his pain is over now. Do not ever say he was lucky that he did not feel pain. He was not lucky. She is not lucky. Don’t make that face. The depth of the stupidity of the things you will say sometimes is unimaginable.", "Before you leave you break her heart one more time. \"No, I’m so sorry, but you cannot see him. There are strict rules when a person dies this way and the police have to take him first. We cannot let you in. I’m so sorry.\" You do not ever say \"the body.\" It is not a body. It is her son. You want to tell her that you know that he was hers. But she knows that and she does not need for you to tell her. Instead you tell her you will give her time and come back in case she has questions. More questions, or questions for the first time. If she has no questions you do not give her the answers to the questions she has not asked.", "When you leave the room, do not yell at the medical student who has a question. When you get home, do not yell at your husband. If he left his socks on the floor again today, it is all right." ]
