Spring is smack-dab in the middle of the golf season when fans flock to professional tournaments all over the country to watch their favorite golfers chip, putt and birdie their way to the top of the leader board. Then, sometime during the day, they get peckish and head to the food and drink stands to quench and satiate themselves before running to the next hole. Beer is a favorite among golf fans, and at this year’s PGA Tournament starting Thursday, they will be paying more than last year, quite a bit more. How much? $18. And that’s the cheap end…

Imams in Sweden are charging Muslims for “weddings” with prostitutes as a means to circumvent Islamic rules on sex before marriage, according to an investigative report by public broadcaster SVT. These sham “pleasure marriages” are designed to allow Muslims to engage in sexual activity with prostitutes as “husband and wife” but are ended as soon as the sexual activity is completed. The quickie nuptials last for around one hour and the imams who collect the money for their marriage and divorce services view their services as business. Two prostitutes who spoke to SVT for the report said that at least…
What is a woman? Ketanji Brown Jackson wasn’t able to answer this question posed during her SCOTUS confirmation hearing last month, but she may be able to now if she follows the San Diego County Board of Supervisors and their new expanded definition of “woman.” By a vote of 3-2, the Board passed then ratified an ordinance to adopt the United Nations Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), an international treaty adopted in 1979. While this treaty was signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1980, it was never brought to the Senate for ratification. Since then over…
The National Basketball Association has been in a ratings and attendance freefall since adopting woke left-wing stances such as refusing to play games after the Kenosha shooting in 2020, wearing social justice messages on jerseys and painting “Black Lives Matter” on the parquet. The league’s solution to this revenue loss is to not focus on the fundamentals of the sport to lure back fans but to hike up ticket prices by double the rate of inflation. According to the New York Post ticket prices have increased by 18.6 percent this season resulting in higher “gate” earnings per team compared to…
Climbing Mount Everest, visting the pyramids in Egypt or learning the tango are some familiar bucket list items. But for a Florida woman at the ripe-old-age of 19, getting arrested was on her bucket list.

In anticipation of the restart of moon exploration, researchers in Florida planted seeds in soil collected by NASA’s Apollo astronauts in the 1960s and were stunned when the seeds spouted and plants actually grew. The University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences received 12 grams (less than half an ounce) of lunar soil from NASA last year and began planting the seeds in a lab in May 2021. Robert Ferl, researcher with the university, and his team planted thale cress, a small flowering plant that is considered a weed and can be found along road shoulders, and were…
Student loan forgiveness is a hot button issue that’s been politicized by the Biden Administration, but the reality of carrying massive debt transcends political party and falls firmly in the lap of the average American.

Buying a home is out of reach for more and more middle-class Americans, and for first-time home buyers it’s even more elusive. However, there is one bright spot among U.S. cities, and this city comes in as the most affordable city in the world. Take a guess? It’s Pittsburgh, PA!

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure, as the proverb goes, and for one Texas woman this saying came to fruition when she learned her $34.99 Goodwill find is actually an ancient Roman bust dating from the late 1st century BC to the early 1st century AD. Laura Young, an avid art collector and thrift shop treasure hunter, purchased the bust in 2018 after finding it under a table at her local Goodwill. She believed the bust to be a couple of centuries old, but wanted to know precisely the sculpture’s authenticity and origin, so reached out to auction houses…
Colleges and universities around the United States are experiencing post-pandemic enrollment decline, and it has become more of a challenge for these tertiary education institutions to retain and attract students espeically given the high cost of tuition, despite potential promises of student loan forgiveness. But fear not! Administrations are pushing new and unique course offerings running the gamut from physical activity (surfing, tree climbing), to little activity at all (clap your hands for credit, how to fail), to popular culture (Lady Gaga, Beyoncé) to serial killers (Ted Bundy? Jeffery Dahmer? Seriously?) in the hopes that they will shake-up the often…

In an email to the College Republicans, a university administrator informed the group that after reviewing the online content available for Mr. Knowles, I concluded that the event…

Kyleen Waltman, 39, was fitted with a permanent trachea tube in her throat as bacteria from the dog’s mouths reached her esophagus and she now speaks using a voice-generator box. Amy Wynne, Waltman’s sister, said that the dogs were eating her alive. The dogs dragged her, they scalped her. Her skull was showing. They tore her left eyelid off. They tore her right cheek…
Shoppers along New York City’s Madison Avenue will have to plan their visits to the high-end glass and metal retail palaces a little more carefully now, since many stores have moved to ‘by appointment only’ amid coordinated daytime shoplifting sprees along the storied glamorous boulevard. In addition to not having regular trading hours, the retailers have dimmed their lights, dead-bolted doors and placed security guards outside to deter would-be thieves during daytime hours. Even the swankiest of shops have not been spared the shocking rise in retail theft, despite NYPD patrol cars parked on the street. The Carolina Herrera boutique…
We know how cute and playful cats can be, but experts at Hawaii’s Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) are cautioning visitors to the islands against playing with or feeding stray and feral cats as they pose a threat to Hawaiian wildlife and spread disease.
