If smoking affects the genes OF THE SPERM:

1) In what way does it affect them? What changes happen, and how do they affect the children?

2) What else can affect the genes?

This is a BIG secret. You can control what babies will be like by what you put in people’s bodies, via mineral supplements in water, vaccines (with mercury, etc.), forcing slaves to eat pork, etc.

7 Medieval African Kingdoms Everyone Should Know About

While Europe was experiencing its Dark Ages, a period of intellectual, cultural and economic regression from the sixth to the 13th centuries, Africans were experiencing an almost continent-wide renaissance after the decline of the Nile Valley civilizations of Egypt and Nubia.

The leading civilizations of this African rebirth were the Axum Empire, the Kingdom of Ghana, the Mali Empire, the Songhai Empire, the Ethiopian Empire, the Mossi Kingdoms and the Benin Empire.

Britain has invaded all but 22 countries in the world

These are the people who invented the language that has 40 different words for ‘steal’…

Only a comparatively small proportion of the total in Mr Laycock’s list of   invaded states actually formed an official part of the empire.

The remainder have been included because the British were found to have achieved some sort of military presence in the territory – however   transitory – either through force, the threat of force, negotiation or   payment.

Incursions by British pirates, privateers or armed explorers have also been   included, provided they were operating with the approval of their   government.

“Other countries could write similar books – but they would be much   shorter. I don’t think anyone could match this, although the Americans had a   later start and have been working hard on it in the twentieth century.”

The only other nation which has achieved anything approaching the British   total, Mr Laycock said, is France…

Why Are Black Women Punished for Having Natural Hair?

From media images to the language of what is beautiful and right, long and straight is the standard, which is why the first thing some women do when they become radicalized is to cut off their hair to stand away from the pack. Black folks, themselves, don’t quite know where to begin, as social codes that determine what looks good and acceptable change as quickly as the next Black Twitter post. We embrace then agonize over phrases like “good hair” versus “bad hair”. I almost did an intervention on a young Chicago bus driver who insisted my locks are lovely because I have the “right” kind of hair whereas hers was just “useless”. We have internalized a European beauty standard that forces so many of us to feel incomplete unless we have Rapunzel-length locks that likely come from an East Indian woman who left her hair lying on the floor as tribute to her gods.

The Science of Sleep

Every living thing is regulated by a roughly 24-hour internal clock, which keeps ticking even when there is no light around to signal what time it is. But here’s where things get tricky. There isn’t just one body clock – groups of molecules have their own individual circadian rhythms that are regulated by a single master timekeeper in the brain, known as the suprachiasmatic nucleus, or SCN. One of the more important discoveries that Foster’s research group has made is that specialized light-sensitive cells in the eye feed information to the brain and help regulate the SCN. The discovery has helped scientists understand not only how light affects whether we feel sleepy or alert, but also why crossing time zones gives us jet lag. They’ve also found links between severe mental illness and out-of-kilter body clocks, suggesting that one way to help such sufferers is simply to help them reset those clocks.
