Marine Services began coordinating with Animal Control and the department’s Forensics Unit to safely remove the animals.What initially appeared to be a rescue involving more than 30 cats eventually grew to 60 over the course of a rescue effort spanning six days.FLORIDA MAN ALLEGEDLY KILLS FAMILY’S KITTENS IN FRONT OF TEENAGE DAUGHTER AS FORM OF PUNISHMENT: OFFICIALS “That’s a wrap!

Welcome to the Golden Era Initial jobless claims just did something they haven’t done since 1969. New filings for unemployment benefits dropped to 187,000 for the week ending July 18 — a nearly 57-year low, and a much bigger drop than economists expected. Wall Street spend time debating whether this is “good” or “bad” news for the Fed. I think both sides are missing the real story. This isn’t a cyclical blip. It’s demographics finally showing up in the data. Birth rates across the developed world — the U.S., Europe, Japan, China, South Korea — have been falling for decades, and the workforce math is now catching up. Fewer young workers are entering the labor force every year than are retiring out of it. That’s not a recession signal. It’s a structural worker shortage, and jobless claims sitting near six-decade lows is exactly what you’d expect that shortage to look like on paper: a “low-hire, low-fire” economy where employers are desperate to hold onto the workers they already have. Here’s the part that should get your attention: a labor shortage this deep can’t be solved the old-fashioned way. You can’t out-immigrate your way out of a birth-rate collapse fast enough,…
The WNBA doesn’t always get attention for the right reasons. In fact, these days, it’s increasingly for the wrong ones.Perhaps no other WNBA incident in recent months has generated as much attention as DiJonai Carrington’s, shall we say, aggressive foul on Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham.Carrington clotheslined Cunningham, leaving her with a bloody mouth. The foul was upgraded to a flagrant 2, resulting in Carrington’s immediate ejection.That was bad enough, especially considering it came against Cunningham, who’s become public enemy number one in the WNBA for saying that males shouldn’t compete in women’s sports. But Carrington made it worse when she posted “White privilege” on social media after the game, then tagged the Indiana Fever.DIJONAI CARRINGTON DECLARES ‘WHITE PRIVILEGE’ AFTER EJECTION FOR SMACKING SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM IN THE FACE Most took that to mean that Carrington was implying that she was ejected because her foul came against a White player. Essentially, that she was only assessed a harsher foul because of her race, and obviously, Cunningham’s.Despite the immediate backlash to Carrington’s post, the WNBA has remained essentially silent about it. Though Carrington herself addressed it by… referring to her educational background?”I’ve never once claimed that the assessment of the foul was…

What Happened in 2026 So Far Gold has had an insane time this decade. Six years ago, in January 2020, gold’s price was $1,500/ounce. During the Covid-19 March Panic, the price was fell to $1,418 on March 18th, only to surge to a record high of $2,075/oz in August 2020, breaching the seemingly impossible $2,000/ounce benchmark, which many thought would never be done. In August 2020, just as gold hits this incredible new milestone, interest rates bottom. When I say that they bottom, I mean that they have gone near those levels again and who knows if they ever will. On August 4th 2020, lenders were willing to receive 0.52% from the Treasury, for funds lent for 10 years! Today, lenders are asking for 4.74%, as I write this. The difference is huge, because if a lender gave the Treasury department $1,000,000 in August 2020, he signed a loan that provided him with $5,200/year in interest income. Today, if I lend the government $110,000, I would receive that same amount, so whoever held his bond from August 2020 to present, has lost 89% in less than SEVEN YEARS! While interest rates have soared since August 2020, the price of gold…

Preseason rankings in college football have become a hot topic of conversation nearly every July and August.While the college football world still eagerly awaits the 2026 edition of the preseason polls, it’s good to remember that these rankings are somewhat of an inexact science.It’s fun to argue and joust with other fans about where you believe your team should be slotted in the first edition of the official rankings of the college football season, but sometimes being a highly ranked team heading into the year can be a death sentence.SEC, BIG TEN ARE DOMINATING COLLEGE FOOTBALL THANKS TO MASSIVE ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER CONFERENCESThe combination of sky-high expectations and overlooking holes in the roster can lead to disastrous seasons for teams whose goals may have been a bit too lofty, and there’s plenty of historical precedent to prove it.With that in mind, here are five of the most disappointing preseason top-10 teams from the 21st century.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Reducing your risk of cancer death may be as simple as taking brief breaks for physical activity throughout the day, according to a new observational study.The study, led by researchers from the University of Glasgow studying the association between cancer and prolonged sedentary behavior, found that participants who regularly interrupted prolonged sitting with physical activity had a lower risk of cancer death.TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ”This study adds to growing evidence that prolonged sedentary behavior is an independent health risk,” Dr. Georgia Spear, chief of breast imaging at Northwestern Medicine, told Fox News Digital.”While it does not prove that sitting causes cancer, it suggests that long, uninterrupted periods of sitting are associated with a higher risk of cancer mortality,” Spear explained. “The findings reinforce existing public-health recommendations that regular movement throughout the day is an important component of cancer prevention.” The researchers monitored 91,292 volunteer participants in the U.K. who wore movement-tracking devices on their wrists for seven days to track their sedentary habits. The scientists followed the volunteers’ health outcomes over the course of about 12 years.The researchers defined prolonged sedentary behavior as any bout that lasted “at least…

This article was originally published by Garrison Vance at Natural News. President Donald Trump announced support for Ukrainian strikes deep inside Russian territory and authorized the production of U.S. Patriot missile interceptors in Ukraine, delivering a major policy shift during the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, on July 8, 2026. Trump appeared alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the bilateral meeting, praising Ukraine’s military efforts and promising fresh military cooperation, as reported by AFP and The Wall Street Journal. The U.S. president said that the deep strikes, which have targeted Russian oil refineries and defense facilities, represent an escalation that could help end the war. According to reports from the summit, Trump noted that he has spoken frequently with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who, in Trump’s view, wants to end the conflict. Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov countered by characterizing the conflict as a real war due to Western backing. [1] [8] Trump’s Remarks on Deep Strikes and Peace Speaking at the NATO summit, Trump stated that Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries and defense manufacturing sites may help lead to an end of the war. “It’s an escalation, but it’s also an escalation that could help lead to an end,”…

Who was the most horrible person in all of human history? Some might claim their mother-in-law. I’m personally crazy about mine. However, I’d like to dig a bit deeper than that today. Reinhard Heydrich, tallest man on the right, along with Heinrich Himmler and other Nazi officials. Image: Public Domain Tragically, the competition for that particularly dark superlative is fierce. I would say that human beings are animals, but that unfairly disparages animals. If ever you might have doubted humanity’s innate sin nature, you need look no further than any handy history text. Contenders Certain names naturally percolate to the top. Adolf Hitler is a perennial contestant, as is Josef Stalin, Mao Zedong and Pol Pot. However, I would assert that these infamous personalities, vile and heartless though they might have been, enjoyed a little institutional distance. It’s likely fairly easy to sit around a conference table and foment policy that results in the extermination of millions. It’s another thing entirely to implement that policy or even pull the levers yourself. They’re all horrible, but the act becomes viscerally worse the closer you get to the actual doing. Reinhard Heydrich was the commander of the Sicherheitsdienst (SD), or security service. The…
