That's cute, though. How many newlyweds can say they have a tiger upstaging them in their wedding photo?
It does look Photoshopped - so the couple will have to spend the remainder of their lives insisting that it's not - that's really a tiger right there in the photo.

Doesn't surprise me in the least. IMO it's even going to get worse, there is no way, no how the NSA "database" isn't going to be abused. Having control over peoples "secrets" is just too much power.
Nearly 7 in 10 Americans take prescription drugs, yeah and it doesn't look to me that BC is skewing the results.

From your link:
Mayo Clinic and Olmsted Medical Center researchers say..
Antibiotics, antidepressants and painkilling opioids are most commonly prescribed, their study found. Twenty percent of patients are on five or more prescription medications, according to the findings, published online in the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings."

I take prescription drugs, but they're hormone supplements for my thyroid
Many years ago, I went to the doctor's office with a bad sore throat. She looked down my throat and said she couldn't tell at that point whether it was an infection or not. She gave me a prescription for an antibiotic and told me not to fill it unless the sore throat got worse, making it difficult or impossible for me to swallow or eat. She also gave me a prescription for cough syrup with codeine in it to stop my coughing so I could sleep. I filled the cough syrup prescription, got some ice cream for my throat and went home without filling the prescription for the antibiotic.
The next morning I woke up with completely stuffed up and dripping sinuses. My throat was feeling a lot better and my cough had almost vanished. I had a cold. I stuck to cold medicine and I never got that antibiotic. I was smart. I didn't need it.
But lots of people would have gotten that antibiotic "just in case" and even used it even though it was just a cold, trying to knock out that cold a little faster. Multiply those people many times over and you've got a lot of people taking antibiotics they don't need.

The Fire That Burns Within
I take a prescription drug, which isn't absolutely necessary in the here and now, but long term it could effect my health adversly. By taking this prescription, I am likely reducing my impact on future healthcare costs..
This is what he was working on before he died. His death does look a little suspicious. Most people are questioning how his car burst into flames after hitting a tree. Cars hit trees everyday without exploding.

I gotta disagree. There's nothing inherently suspicious about an investigative reporter doing investigative reporting or cars blowing up when they hit things.

I think it would be much more likely to die of dehydration.

What's worse is the mob of racist Deen fans defending her.

If it weren't for that glass, those two people would be some newly-edibles.
