Oh, noes! Those struggling to make it through the night have more problems than those enjoying a sound rest. Their sperm counts were cut by a quarter and they also had smaller testicles. The latest research is the first to look specifically at whether broken rest affects male fertility although links between sleep and health…
Now my life doesn’t suck so bad: WITH his good looks and charming patter, it’s easy to see why Andrew Wardle is a hit with the ladies. But while he has slept with more than 100 women, there is a secret he has kept from all his admiring pals — he was born without a…
It would seem that a beast covered in fur would be opposed to the planet staying warm but I have to tell you guys, our fur ain’t made of Gore-Tex and Thinsulate – so I’m pretty stoked that a report out of London indicates that, like the Medieval Warm Period, our current climate situation is…
POLICE arrested a woman during a drugs raid – and found a loaded handgun hidden in her vagina. Suspect Christie Dawn Harris, 28, had the weapon pointing up inside herself with just the handle sticking out. A female officer made the startling find during a search in Oklahoma, US, which also uncovered bags of methamphetamine…
Christian conservatives are called the “American Taliban” with a high level of regularity. Remember the smug satisfaction the left displayed after this dialog from Aaron Sorkin’s liberal fantasy was broadcast on HBO last August? The op-ed portion reigned in Sunday’s episode as anchor Will McAvoy (Jeff Daniels), a moderate Republican, summed up his objections to the…
Wow. Socialism really pays off…if you are in charge. I thought that this wasn’t supposed to happen when the bourgeois is overthrown and “the people” revolt to take over the means of production, wasn’t that right Komrade Karl? Apparently nobody explained that to Hugo: Criminal Justice International Associates (CJIA), a risk assessment and global analysis firm in…
While we are cutting defense spending and wasting billions on “green” energy, China is increasing their defense spending and fracking their asses off: China will increase military spending by 10.7 per cent this year to 720.2 billion yuan (US$115.7 billion), the government announced on Tuesday, building on a nearly unbroken succession of double-digit rises in the defence budget…
Because according to the CBO, the Feds will take in more revenue in 2013 than ever: Federal revenue will return to its pre-recession levels in 2013, according to projections from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), setting a record for the most money the government has ever taken in. In its latest Budget and Economic Update,…
This has been out since July of last year but I saw it for the first time this morning: The website hosting the “save the mails” appeal has the creepy Obamaistic name of Delivering For America. To hear this, you would think that Congress is just picking on a perfectly good, financially sound organization. Well,…
Jammie over at JWF explains the Juicebox Mafia in the context of the Woodward kerfluffle: White House Threatens Bob Woodward, JournoList Juicebox Mafia Forms Human Shield Around God King Obama Bob Woodward helped take down Richard Nixon, but that was so like 40 years ago. Most of the current lapdog media was in diapers back…
Over at The Corner, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal throws down the gauntlet(more of a back of the hand bitch slap, actually): It seems as if President Obama sends out another cabinet secretary every hour to tell the public about the dire consequences we will face if the sequestration cuts are not averted. You’ve heard them — no…
So says Nile Gardiner of the Telegraph: Thomas Hobbes wrote that the life of man is “solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short.” Today’s White House definitely isn’t poor, lavishly feeding off the wealth of the American taxpayer, and the current presidency certainly isn’t short, with nearly four more years to run. But it is undeniably nasty and…
From a country that has been at this for over 70 years comes this tale of confidence, competence and precise execution – in the UK Daily Telegraph: Doctors don’t trust their own hospitals Up to two-thirds of doctors and nurses at some hospitals would not recommend that their family and friends are treated where they work,…
I really don’t agree with it – but I do believe he is on solid Constitutional ground. Paul’s vote indicates two possibilities – either he is playing by the rules set forth that the Democrats will not recognize or he actually believes that Hagel can do the job. In 2002, when the Democrats were unjustifiably…
I think that tomorrow’s sequestration is one of the best things that could ever happen in American politics. Why? Because the American people will have a front row seat to what our governing elites think is “necessary” government spending by virtue of what is reduced and what is not. Keep in mind that nothing is being…
From the UK: ‘Miliband should sack Balls – as brutally as possible’ It is actually a story about politics.
…that Obama’s domestic snooping dwarfs that of his predecessor: More than a decade after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a set of extraordinary and secretive surveillance programs conducted by the National Security Agency has been institutionalized, and they have grown. These special programs are conducted under the code name Ragtime, and are divided into several subcomponents,…
Take the Civil Literacy Exam. They note that “college educators” only got 55% correct – probably includes lecturers in Constitutional law at the University of Chicago School of Law. I got 32/33 right and I think I could make an argument that it should be 33/33:
Negative interest rates? I mean, it is the Bank of England but how long before it washes up on our shores? People across Britain could see their savings hit or face new charges on their current accounts after a senior official at the Bank of England proposed the “extraordinary” measure of imposing negative interest rates…
