A day after the US conducted similar action over Alaska, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stated that an unidentified object flying high…

Following the balloon invasion, the US may target Chinese organisations. According to one official, Washington is certain that the maker of the Chinese surveillance balloon has a close relationship with the People’s Liberation Army. A US official said on Thursday that the country will consider taking legal action against Chinese organisations connected to the operation, which targeted more than 40 nations across five continents because it is certain that China’s military-sponsored the entry of the surveillance balloon into its airspace. The enormous balloon was brought down on Saturday by a US fighter jet in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast…

Youth crime has seen a significant rise over the years. While many believe punishing is the only way, it doesn’t seem to be working. Toughness has become a political obsession. Pick the option that sounds challenging if you have to choose between two possibilities, particularly in terms of crime. But when it comes to dealing with youth crimes, we must be creative. When times are tight, tough laws are passed because, in general, no one holds politicians accountable for being tough on crime while also refusing to apologize for it. We’ve already established the sliding scale that places rough at…

Last week, during Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s brief visit to Alice Springs, Peter Dutton tried to link Labor to the town’s rising crime rates. In addition, two Liberal premiers have joined their Labor counterparts in endorsing a Voice to Parliament, breaking with Peter Dutton. When Peter Dutton appeared on the Today Show, host Karl Stefanovic questioned him about the former administration’s apparent failure to stop the rise in crime in Alice Springs while it was in power. He claimed that the Labor government reversed the cashless debit card, or BasicsCard, and the alcohol ban that were both put in place…

New research shows that social lifestyle characteristics are linked to an increased incidence of heart failure and risk factors for neurodegeneration. A person’s danger is more dependent on whether or not they feel lonely than on staying alone.

According to new research, racialised beauty standards encourage the use of cosmetics that are frequently contaminated with chemicals that harm organs, disrupt the human endocrine system, and increase cancer in communities of colour.

Black and Asian Americans frequently use chemical skin lighteners and straighteners to match the eurocentric beauty norms. These often…

While it is almost typical to see a beauty investment surge at the end of the year before everyone packs up for holidays, the end of 2022, however, didn’t quite follow the same trend.
