Submitted by Admin on

Some call it a long awaited solution, but others see it as a growing problem for a nation built by immigrants.

Detaining and beginning to deport any undocumented immigrant is going to be a huge task. It should be concentrated on those who continue to committing criminal acts.

However, the essence of two new Department of Homeland Security directives, which include among priority targets anyone suspected of a crime. Homeland Security unveils sweeping plan to deport undocumented immigrants http://usat.ly/2m4dAWs

Economic Forecast

If the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World were not limited to the Mediterranean region, the Great Wall of China would likely make the list. The one that made later lists was mostly built in and after the 14th century but prior walls were built as far back as 200BC. Defending against Mongol raids was the most obvious purpose but trade and immigration control were also reasons why the Han Dynasty built the early earthen barriers so that workers and goods were accounted for and taxed.

Sleep More Not Less

Submitted by Admin on

To promote optimal health and well-being, adults aged 18–60 years are recommended to sleep at least 7 hours each night. Sleeping less than 7 hours per night is associated with increased risk for obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, stroke, frequent mental distress, and all-cause mortality. Insufficient sleep impairs cognitive performance, which can increase the likelihood of motor vehicle and other transportation accidents, industrial accidents, medical errors, and loss of work productivity that could affect the wider community.

In support of those who chafe at Trump's "success" as a President

The tragedy is what he "succeeds" at. My son and are about to lose our health insurance because of his policies. Many of my students' parents are about to be put on deportation lists due to their countries of origin and religious beliefs. My women students are terrified to be sexually assaulted in a climate led by an admitted sexual predator.

It may be a difficult day for those suffering from triskaidekaphobia, known as a fear of the number 13. This number has always been associated with something or someone who is extremely negative and evil.

Paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia is a morbid, irrational fear of Friday the 13th

Today happens to be the first of two Friday the 13ths that will fall in 2017 and some fear it may be some sort of a strange omen.

Submitted by Admin on

Millions may find themselves without affordable healthcare if Congres gets its way throughout The USA.

While most Americans were sleeping, US legislators took a first step dismantling President Barack Obama's health care law, responding to pressure to move quickly even as Republicans and President-elect Trump grapple with how to replace it.

After debating for hours through the wee hours of the night, US Senators voted towards a top goal of congressional Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump.
