King Richard III's burial site, which was famously found beneath a council car park, has been given protected status. He was originally interred at the church of the Greyfriars, a 13th-Century monastic friary. The church appears to have been demolished during the reign of Henry VIII. Because much of the area was not built upon during the intervening centuries, it is believed Greyfriars remains relatively "well-preserved" underground.
Facebook no longer displays red warning icons next to fake news stories shared on the platform, as it says the approach has not worked as hoped. In December 2016, the site started showing a "disputed" warning next to articles that third-party fact checking websites said were fake news. However, it said research suggested the "red flag" approach actually "entrenched deeply held beliefs". It will now display "related articles" next to disputed news stories.

Sarah Silverman Compares Conservative ‘Christian Fringe’ To ‘ISIS’
Sarah Silverman, host of I Love You, America, has allegedly expressed interest in bridging the political divide with her series. In an interview with Vice’s Hope Reese, the comedienne talked about the concept behind her show. Reese raved, “Her material is less tethered to the news, and she rarely utters Trump’s name or weighs in on specific political viewpoints, instead drawing on broad themes of the moment––patriotism, nationalism, immigration––and reaching across the divide.” But Silverman used some extreme rhetoric in describing Christians. She ranted in her interview, “Like patriotism, religion can be sometimes used as a weapon, or to support someone’s own narrative or fears and prejudices. These Christian-fringe, Roy Moore, do-what-I-say- not-what-I-do people––they’re not very Jesus-like. I see them as fringe the way I see ISIS as fringe.”

How To Betray Your Wife, Destroy Her Self-Worth, And Implode Your Marriage In One Easy Step
As porn causes a wife to feel less attractive to her husband, it also makes her husband less attractive to her. Porn emasculates, and no woman desires an emasculated man. Porn is passive and self-involved – the exact opposite of masculine. A wife finds her husband most desirable when he is doing things, making himself useful, serving, protecting, providing for his family. If you want your wife to see you as a man and feel physically and emotionally attracted to you, go out and do some yard work. Help around the house. Bring home a paycheck. Read to your children. Kill a spider. Go downstairs in the middle of the night to investigate a strange noise. Solve a problem. Lead your family in prayer. If, instead, you want her to see you as a selfish boy and feel repulsed by you, head to the basement and turn on some porn.

The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (the OIC) bills itself as “the collective voice of the Muslim world.” Founded in 1972 as the “Organisation of the Islamic Conference” and adopting its current name in 2011, the OIC joins 57 Member States in what is billed as the second-biggest intergovernmental organization after the United Nations. Whatever one thinks of the OIC’s activities and perspectives on various issues, one should nonetheless commend Muslim countries for their activism. Keep in mind, the OIC is an official organization of governments in the Islamic world, not of religious, academic, or NGO activists, though the latter contribute to the OIC’s mission. Again, give credit where credit is due. But where is the comparable activism by the governments of Christian countries? There is certainly an ample empirical basis for a Christian version of the OIC.

The first song of Christmas is the Magnificat. It is the song about things being turned right-way-up at last, of the world arrested in its rush to power and prestige, of the lowly being exalted and the mighty put down from their thrones, of God’s power made incarnate in the womb of a humble girl. ... The old carols are not as timeless as Mary’s song of praise, have none of the lyrical virtuosity of later poems, and yet they proclaim the same message. They delight in the shaming of the strong, and celebrate the humble folk who preceded the eastern sages.

Journalists Without Integrity Spin Spending Cuts as Tax Hikes
Getting rid of the Obamacare mandate means people won’t get “fined” if they choose not to buy health insurance. If anything, that should count as a tax cut. Sadly, most readers will have no idea that they were deliberately misled.

Huffington Post writer apologizes to black GOP senator for calling him a 'prop'
The Huffington Post writer who called a black Republican senator a "prop" for President Trump has apologized. Andy Ostroy tweeted out his critique after watching Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., stand next to Trump during the GOP's celebration of passing legislation cutting taxes. Sen. Tim Scott wrote back on Twitter that he played a key role in passing the bill, and was not a token black supporter being used by Trump. Patronizing attitudes from the left, too typical, and an easy trap if your world view is based on identity groups instead of individuals. Good riposte from Sen. Tim Scott.

Trump’s tax win will expose poverty of the leftist economics
When it comes to President Trump’s big tax plan, Democrats are worried — not that it will fail but that it will succeed, igniting the U.S. economy and providing so much economic growth that all those low-information voters out there will see the leftist scare talk of the last 25 years has been complete rubbish. Those fears are shared in Moscow, Tehran, Pyongyang and Beijing. America’s adversaries are worried that the U.S. economy, chained down by Obama, Clinton and Bush globalists for the last several decades, will actually make America great again under Mr. Trump.
