Census Shows White Deaths Outpace Births

Census Shows White Deaths Outpace Births Other factors underscoring a changing country include a baby boom in big cities. For the second year in a row, the number of non-Hispanic white deaths in 2013 outweighed the number of white births, signaling an increasingly older and diversified American public. It is a trend that’s likely to continue for a while, as traditionally minority groups become the majority of the U.S. population. As a result of its slower growth rate, compared with other groups, the number of non-Hispanic white individuals declined to 62.6 percent of the total overall population in 2013 from… View Article

Don Cherry overlooked for Order of Canada once again

And that’s a good thing because it doesn’t look like he will ever receive one. Most involved in the behind-the-scenes, decade-long movement to try to ensure Cherry joins this exclusive club were counting on this being the year he would finally get his due. Grapes turned 80 in March and Hockey Night in Canada is no longer a CBC entity. Cherry is coming out of an incredible era… View Article

Liberals turn momentum into wins in Toronto

Liberals turn momentum into wins in Toronto, strong showing in Alberta Monday’s four federal byelections made one thing clear: Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have momentum on their side. The Liberals stole one riding — the coveted Trinity-Spadina in downtown Toronto — from the NDP, easily held another Toronto riding and gave the Conservatives a run for their money in the Tory bastion of Fort McMurray-Athabasca, in Alberta’s oilsands heartland. The Conservatives handily retained another Alberta riding, Macleod, but even there, Liberal support almost quadrupled. The results reflect just how far the Liberals, reduced to a third-party rump in 2011, have...

Porn on the Brain – Inventions Useful and Oddball

Porn on the Brain – Inventions Useful and Oddball We realise that for some of you, the following news may be akin to Christmas being cancelled, but watching too much porn may be bad for your brain. A new study by German researchers revealed that men who overdose on porn not only have less grey matter but there is less activity going on. It’s not clear, for example, whether watching porn leads to brain changes or whether people born with certain brain types watch more porn, said Simone Kühn, the study’s lead author from the Max Planck Institute for Human… View Article

House of Commons most lobbied government institution

House of Commons most lobbied government institution MPs are still the most lobbied public office holders, despite a majority government that controls everything from the PMO. But depending on who you talk to, this is either evidence of the country’s 308 MPs’ continued relevance in decision-making, of Cabinet ministers not being as accessible, of a misguided approach by lobbyists padding registry statistics to appease clients, or some combination thereof. Lobbying Commissioner Karen Shepherd’s annual report for 2013-14, released June 12, showed the House of Commons as far and away the most lobbied government institution in the last fiscal year, accounting… View Article
