A friend sent me this image of a Political Compass Test that I myself had taken as part of a Political Science class in college. Here, the current presidential candidates are plotted out according to the views they are campaigning with. I find it interesting how scewed the American socio-political perspective is in [...]
The US has been experiencing a steady growth in population for the entirety of its existence. Not quite a year ago, America welcomed its 300 millionth citizen, something I personally view as a blessing and a curse. Not all countries however are growing like the US, example #1: Russia.

A woman pleaded guilty Tuesday to swinging her 4-week-old son like a bat to hit her boyfriend during a fight, fracturing the infant’s skull in the process.
The argument was made in her defense that the child was actually hurt during the fight between the two adults [...]
Power couples such as Donald and Melania Trump, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, what makes them successful? More importantly, what makes them possible? Money. They all know it; they’re just okay with the idea. There is an erotic essence to money that has evolved, perhaps, a bit out [...]
There are plenty of romantic stories that fill our hearts with hope for everlasting companionship but rarely do we find real life examples. Elena Menotti and her team of archaeologists have discovered 5,000 year old fossilized skeletons near Mantova, Italy locked in an “Eternal Embrace,” just in time for Valentine’s Day.
