Some Suspect Earth’s Magnetic Poles About to Flip

Some Suspect Earth’s Magnetic Poles About to Flip:   A new theory being proposed is that the Earth’s magnetic poles may be about to flip for the first time in 786,000 years.  Scientists say that even if it does happen, humans should be OK overall - but birds who typically migrate using magnetic guidance may now be forced to download the Waze app in order to navigate their way past Cleveland every summer.  Otherwise, about the only other thing people will notice is that they’ll now need to place the batteries into their electronic devices backwards. http://www.johnnyrobish.com Last Ice Age Affected Breastfeeding in Native Americans:   Scientists at UC Berkeley say that the last ice age may have caused a genetic mutation in Native Americans which causes the breasts to provide more fat and vitamin D to infants.  So I’m guessing before that, the only thing available in breastfeeding was either 2% or skim milk?  http://www.johnnyrobish.com...

Ikea Founder Ingvar Kamprad Dead at Age 91

Ikea Founder Ingvar Kamprad Dead at Age 91:   Ingvar Kamprad, who transformed a small local furniture business in the 1940s to the massive global brand Ikea, has died at age 91.  When the funeral home delivered his casket, I guess it came as no surprise to anyone that “some assembly was required.” http://www.johnnyrobish.com Trump Claims Ice Caps Setting Records During His Presidency:  While dismissing climate change during a recent interview in the UK with Piers Morgan, President Trump insisted that rather than melting, the “ice caps are setting records” during his presidency.  Wow, that statement reminds me of the old adage, “you can lead a Republican to facts, but you can’t make them think.”  That said, in all fairness - the President is partially correct.  The polar ice caps have reversed themselves and are now heading towards Panama for the winter. http://www.johnnyrobish.com Parents Forcing Children to Drink Bleach to Cure Au...
