The Truth about "The baby with cancer"
We often warn against liking or sharing sick child photo hoaxes. These photos go viral with the ridiculous claim that Facebook will donate money based on the number of likes or shares the photo receives. A German blog reached out to one of the families impacted by one such hoax. We encourage everyone to read their story and share with your friends. Hopefully we can raise awareness on this issue and slow these down.

Knife Attack Kills Christian Woman in Southern Egypt
Hostility towards Egyptian Christians in the past few months has been at an all-time high. In a horrific attack this past week, two Christian pharmacies were attacked as well as some on the street. The victims of the stabbings were all Christians. A suspect has since been arrested and it appears that charges will be brought against him. The defendant appears to be preparing an insanity defense, that looks like many as simply a cover-up to hide the real motives behind the attack of these Christian women.

What’s Hidden In These Photos Was Extremely Important. That’s Why This Is So Brilliant.
Burbank’s Lockheed Air Terminal (which is now known as Bob Hope Airport) underwent a major makeover during World War II. In February 1942, a Japanese submarine was seen outside of San Francisco Bay. Then, when another was spotted in Santa Barbara, the US government decided to protect vital military installations along the Pacific Coast. For the Lockheed airport base, it was decided to camouflage the entire base to look like a suburban neighborhood.
