Lifestyle 2 Days AgoCooking Light — Jaime Milan
The CDC is advising consumers in six Eastern states to avoid buying fresh papayas from Mexico due to potential salmonella contamination that's already sickened dozens and sent 23 people to the hospital. The states where the affected papaya was sold include Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island.
Since January, 62 people have been infected across eight states including Texas and Florida. 76 percent of the infected people report eating papayas grown in Mexico, according to the CDC’s report.
If you live in one of these states and have papaya from Mexico (including in fresh fruit salads or other mixes), you should throw them away immediately, even if no one has gotten sick. The CDC is also recommending that you sanitize the area where the papaya was stored, as salmonella bacteria is transferable. (Here’s ... less

Fuget About It is a pretty funny cartoon - I copied and pasted the theme below and it's sung with a Brooklyn mob family type of accent. Cheers!
Let me tell you something 'bout a friend of ours-a named Jimmy,
A made-a wise guy and a capo with the Gambini.
But when he found out that they’d be whackin’ uncle Cheech,
He take-a the boss, he threw him from the nineteenth floor suite!
Wasn’t much-a long 'til the mob all wants him dead,
So Jimmy had no choice-a but to talk-a to all the Feds.
The feds-a say they had to take him, use him as a pawn
So he ratted out his friends and moved to Saskatchewan.

Oh, FUGGET ABOUT IT! less

33-year-old Dorleans Philidor briefly halted courtroom proceedings related to charges of burglary in Miami-Dade County on Friday after he threw feces at the judge and told her she should eat it because feces contains protein and "good for you." Philidor was later acquitted of the burglary charges by a jury, but he will remain in jail to face a separate charge of grand theft auto.
A Florida man's courtroom antics didn't seem to deter a jury who later cleared him of burglary charges.
The trial for 33-year-old Dorleans Philidor was delayed on Friday morning after Philidor defecated on himself in the courtroom and proceeded to throw his feces towards Miami-Dade Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Lisa Walsh, theMiami Herald said.
The excrement did not reach Walsh, but the move sent lawyers scattering out of Philidor's reach as law enforcement me... less

News 9 Hours AgoNewser — John Johnson
It sounds like a crazy tabloid headline—humans are growing little horns in the back of their skulls. Except it comes not from a tabloid but a peer-reviewed study in Scientific Reports.
Australian researchers say more people, young ones especially, are showing up with what's known as an "enlarged external occipital protuberance" on the back of their skulls, just above the neck, reports the Washington Post.
The leading theory is that these spikes are caused by all the time people spend hunched over their phones. It's throwing the body out of whack, resulting in the formation of what's been variously described in coverage as bone spurs, phone bones, a bird's beak, and head horns.
(The study itself includes an X-ray photo.) If you have one, you'd likely be able to feel it with your fingers, notes the BBC.
It might even be visible as a little bump if you're bald. "... less
US President Donald Trump arrives to speak during a rally at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida to officially launch his 2020 campaign on June 18, 2019.
President Donald Trump officially opened his 2020 campaign Tuesday with a speech exaggerating what he’s done for the economy and against illegal immigration.
Some claims from his rally in Orlando, Florida:
ABORTION
TRUMP: “Leading Democrats have even opposed measures to prevent the execution of children after birth.”
THE FACTS: Executing children is already a crime.
Trump is offering here a somewhat toned down version of a distorted story he’s been telling for months that falsely suggests Democrats are OK with murder.
His account arises from extremely rare instances when babies are born alive as a result of an attempted abortion. When these cases occur, “execution” is not an ... less

Credit cards can be wonderful tools if you know how to use them to your advantage. For example, you should use them in a way that helps boost your credit scores—which will, in turn, help you qualify for the best cards with the best perks and rewards.
One key thing to keep in mind while using your credit cards is to make sure you're not using too much of your own credit. If you do, you'll end up with a higher credit utilization ratio, which can pull your credit scores down.
In general, the less of your available credit you're using, the better: Aim to use no more than 30% of the credit available to you. For the best credit scores, keep it under 10%, but above zero.
How Do I Calculate My Credit Utilization Ratio?
Your credit utilization ratio is calculated by adding all your credit card balances at any given time and dividing that by your total credit limit. For example, if you typically charge about $2,000 each month... less

U.S. President Donald Trump speaks about expanding healthcare coverage for small businesses in the Rose Garden of the White House on June 14, 2019 in Washington, DC.
An eye toward his 2020 campaign, President Donald Trump is turning to a familiar playbook of exaggerated boasts about economic performance and overdrawn complaints about a race tilted against him.
He insisted the Electoral College gives Democrats a “big advantage” in U.S. presidential elections, making it difficult for Republicans like himself to win. That’s wrong. Though in 2016 he often described the election as “rigged” against him, Trump, in fact, wouldn’t have won the presidency without the Electoral College system in which the votes of smaller rural states that tend to vote Republican are weighted more heavily than big, Democratic-leaning states like New York and California.
