DIET soda drinkers are probably
doing their waistlines a favor, but may also be boosting their risk of
having a stroke, according to research released by researchers from the
University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
The study monitored the health of more than 2500 patients over nearly a decade.
They answered lengthy questionnaires about nutrition along the way and were monitored for several conditions.
In
the time they were under evaluation, 559 of the test subjects
experienced vascular events, including strokes caused by hemorrhage and
those caused by clots.

Hitler ordered Nazis to make sex dolls so soldiers wouldn't catch syphilis from prostitutes
ADOLF Hitler ordered blow-up dolls for his troops because so many caught sex diseases from prostitutes, The Sun reported today.
Records revealed Nazi scientists developed the "synthetic comforters" for German soldiers who were regularly hustling in Paris. The problem was so bad it was keeping many of the troops from their frontline duties.
The World War Two project began in 1940 after SS chief Heinrich Himmler wrote, "The greatest danger in Paris is the widespread and uncontrolled presence of whores, picking up clients in bars, dance halls and other places. It is our duty to prevent soldiers from risking their health for the sake of a quick adventure."
Hitler personally approved the plan for the blonde and blue-eyed "gynoid" dolls, which were small enough to fit into a backpack. They were tested by soldiers in Nazi-occupied Jersey.
Himmler was so impressed he ordered 50 for his own troops.
But in 1942 the project was halted when German soldiers refused to carry the dolls because of the potential embarrassment if they were captured by the enemy.
Author Graeme Donald uncovered Hitler's secretive "Borghild Project" while researching the history of Barbie, which was based on a postwar German sex doll.
He said, "In the end the idea fizzled out and the place where they were made and all the dolls were destroyed in the bombing of Dresden."

Larger Brains May Have Evolved Due to Sports, Not Smarts
Conventional wisdom presumes that the larger the brain, the more
intelligent the animal must be. Though it seems logical that a creature
with more grey and white matter crammed inside its head would have
greater mental acumen than an animal with lesser anatomy, the evidence
surrounding this claim is mixed.
These days, many scientists believe that it’s the underlying organization of the brain that matters most when it comes to smarts. But according to a new study published in the journal PLoS ONE, bigger noggins may have trickled through evolution’s passageway not because of reason and intellect, but due to exercise.

DISGUSTING! In one year, 3 TIMES as many bedbugs are found in NYC public schools
Bedbugs were found in public schools three times as often last school
year compared to the year before - and officials are preparing for even
more of the pests when classes resume in the fall.
Some 3,590 reports of bedbugs at city schools were confirmed by Department of Education officials in the 2010-2011 year - up from just 1,019 a year earlier.
In most cases just one or two of bedbugs were found, but the consequences for students can be severe even when small numbers of the pests are discovered.
