PEOPLE will be able to download their “souls” onto microchips, implant it into another body and live forever, a technology expert has claimed. Richard Skellett, a founder of Digital Anthropologist and an expert for Future of Work, has warned of a future in which British workers have chips inserted underneath their skin. The process has already been trialled with company BioTeq fitting 150 implants in the UK. And Sweden-based firm Biohax told the Sunday Telegraph that it is in discussions with several British companies about microchipping. But as humans and machines become more in-sync, it could open up all sorts...

David Stephenson, store manager of Cedar City Deseret Industries, promised his team that if they met their sales goals, he would run at least 200 loops around the roundabout outside of their office—and he would do it in his work clothes: a shirt, tie, and slacks. “Where I work, we train individuals to get better jobs,” he explained. “They all face different challenges in their lives, so I’m always looking for any opportunity to show them that you can do hard things, even if some thing seem impossible—or not the smartest thing to do, in my case—you can still accomplish...

Australia Day looms on January 26th, which is a week from today New Hampshire time. But a week from today New Hampshire time Australia Day will have come and gone. In fact, it may already have come and gone: as the years go by, the Pacific time zones seem to gape and open up even vaster temporal space. So I thought we'd go a little Australian ahead of the big day, and pick a movie with the most prominent Aussie actress of our time. In private life Cate Blanchett is a near parodic limousine liberal ("Green before it was hip,...

RUSH: This is Brian in Monroe, Louisiana. You’re next. It’s great to have you, sir. Hi. CALLER: Good afternoon, Rush. Like I said, I do live in the South, and I work for the Federal Aviation Administration as a technician. And I am for President Trump building a wall. I think it’s necessary for our safety of our country. I do believe that. But I also feel that Representative Pelosi and him, they need to sit down and talk this out and don’t use the government’s workers as pawns. I mean, we should not be involved in it. That’s something...

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) has shown public support for President Donald Trump's proposed border wall, stating that walls do work, refuting claims from his colleagues that they do not.

I thought this was worth sharing. It starts with Toby Keith playing golf with Clint Eastwood. That sets the stage. At one point, Eastwood said to Keith, I turn 88 on Monday. What are you going to do? Keith asked. I'm going to shoot a movie, Eastwood replied, with filming scheduled to begin the following week. What keeps you going? Keith asked him? I get up every day and don't let the old man in, Eastwood said. I'm writing this down right now, Keith replied. Keith didn't ask him if he could contribute a song, Keith just went home and...

A new international sports team may have a supernatural boost: Vatican representatives announced last week that the city-state has launched a national track and field team. The group will start with about 60 members, pending official clearance and a health examination required by the Italian government, Father Melchor Jose Sanchez de Toca y Alameda, team president and the head of the Vatican’s sports department in the culture ministry, told Runner’s World. Those members range in age from 18 to 62, and have a variety of professions within the Vatican. “There’s all types of people—it cuts across the Vatican world. There...

In many ways, Max is a typical 14-year-old. He eschews soft music in favour of rock and heavy metal, likes to wear hoodies, giggles when he’s nervous and has a flair for drawing animals. He can be opinionated and sarcastic one moment, shy and withdrawn the next. His insecurities, however, run deeper than run-of-the-mill teenaged angst. “I have a male brain that doesn’t match up with the body I’m in,” says the Grade 9, Surrey, B.C., student, who was the female gender at birth. “It’s like being trapped in a cage.” Max is now at the centre of a complicated...

A US Navy submarine commander has been fired after he hired ten prostitutes to party in his hotel room. Captain Travis Zettel, of the USS Bremerton, paid for the women while his submarine was on a “farewell” tour of the Philippines last March. The commander is said to have bragged to two sailors at a hotel pool that he’d “ordered ten girls to arrive at the hotel,” according to the Kitsap Sun. At the time the sub was docked at Subic Bay in the country. One of the sailors then saw around ten “provocatively dressed” women outside the hotel entrance...

A Montreal-area woman who has filed for divorce from her billionaire husband is seeking a $13-million settlement as well as a $50,000 monthly allowance, claiming the lifestyle she paid for in part during her marriage left her “impoverished.” According to a suit filed last week by the woman’s lawyers at the Montreal courthouse, the couple, who were married three years ago and cannot be identified because their case is before the family division of Superior Court, began their marriage happily and in no small amount of style. The woman’s claim before the court describes a lifestyle that included nearly a...

A hotel dishwasher was awarded $21.5 million this week after she managed to convince a Miami jury that her employer had violated her religious rights — by making her work on Sundays. “I love God,” said Marie Jean Pierre, speaking to NBC 6with her lawyer Marc Brumer. “No work on Sunday because Sunday I honor God.” Pierre, 60, got fired three years ago from her job at the Conrad Miami hotel — which was managed by Hilton at the time — after missing multiple shifts on Sunday to attend church service. She later sued, claiming the hotel had violated the Civil...
