    [h=3]A diabetic gets fired over a $1.69 (plus tax) drink and Dollar General must now pay her $277,656.[/h] For God’s sake, if your employee needs a drink, especially if she’s diabetic, just let her have it already. That’s what Dollar General learned after a federal jury sided with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) in a case against the retail giant. The story goes like this. Back in September 2014, an insulin-dependent diabetic cashier in Dollar General’s Maryville, Tenn. store told her supervisor she needed to keep juice near the cash register in case of a hypoglycemic attack. According to testimony at the trial, the supervisor did not allow employees to do this, although the company has a policy that would allow it for those need. One day, fearing an oncoming attack, the cashier

    [h=3]When goldfish go bad - in the wild, pets turn to pests[/h] Two decades ago, someone dropped a handful of unwanted pet goldfish into a creek in southwestern Australia. Those goldfish grew, swam downstream, mucked up waters wherever they went and spawned like mad. Before long, they took over the whole river. Researchers from Murdoch University believe this scenario, or something like it, is the cause of a feral goldfish invasion in Australia’s Vasse River. Since 2003, they have been running a goldfish tracking and control program that involves catching fish along the length of the river, freezing them to death and studying them in the lab. Despite this program, goldfish in the Vasse are thriving, with some fish growing as long as 16 inches and weighing

He had been homeless for several years and carried his few possessions in a plastic bag. So when he and a friend came across a new backpack sitting atop a garbage can next to the Elizabeth, N.J., train station last Sunday night, it was like divine intervention. He picked it up and they walked a bit. It was only when he looked inside that he see a maze of wires hooked up to makeshift pipe bombs. Parker and his friend Ivan White took the bag to a remote area in case the explosives detonated and went straight to the police. Since then, they have been hailed as heroes for potentially saving the lives of hundreds on a weekend that saw

Reports from the National Public Security System showed that the number of homicide investigations in August was 1,938, the highest since May 2012, making it the most violent month of President Enrique Peña Nieto's term, which began in December 2012. The number of homicide victims, which has only been released on a monthly basis since early 2014, was also a record high: 2,147, topping the 2,096 killings reported for July.

    Trump foreign policy advisor reportedly being probed for ties to Russia

    One of Donald Trump's foreign policy advisors is being probed by U.S. intelligence officials to determine whether he has had private discussions with senior Russian officials, Yahoo News reported, citing sources. In particular, members of the intelligence community are concerned that Carter Page has spoken with the Kremlin about the possibility of lifting economic sanctions on Russia, sources told Yahoo. Page and Trump's campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The report comes amid growing concerns that Moscow may be trying to influence the U.S. presidential election. On Thursday, Sen. Dianne Feinstein and Rep. Adam Schiff of California issued a joint statement expressing

Sangita Ranawasia, who is five months' pregnant and from India's lowest Dalit caste, was recovering in hospital after she and seven family members were beaten with sticks in their village in the western state of Gujarat. "Six persons of the upper-caste Darbar community were arrested for assault on a pregnant woman and her family members," deputy police superintendent B A Chavda told AFP.

    [h=3]Hoarder mom possibly unaware of son’s corpse in her own home[/h] The elderly Brooklyn woman found this month living with the skeletal remains of her son, possibly for as long as 20 years, is a legally blind hoarder who may not have even known he was there, NYPD sources said. The chilling discovery of the skeleton was made Sept. 15 when a relative showed up at Rita Wolfensohn’s Midwood home to fetch her belongings and take them to her in the hospital. In a debris-choked second-floor bedroom, sister-in-law Josette Buchman found a “completely intact” skeleton, dressed in jeans, socks and a shirt, lying on its back on a thin mattress on the floor, police sources told The Post. “It’s like some reverse ‘Psycho’ scene,” a law-enforcement source said at the time, referring to Hitchcock’s 1960 horror flick in which a son, Norman Bates, keeps his dead mother’s remains in a basement.

[h=3]Mall shooting north of Seattle[/h] The 20-year-old suspect in the deadly Washington state mall shooting said nothing and appeared “zombie-like” when he was arrested by authorities nearly 24 hours into an intense manhunt, authorities said. Island County Sheriff’s Lt. Mike Hawley said he spotted Arcan Cetin from a patrol car Saturday evening in Oak Harbor, Washington, and immediately recognized him as the suspect who killed five people at the Cascade Mall in nearby Burlington. Hawley said at a news conference they had received information that Cetin, of Oak Harbor, was in the area. Cetin, who immigrated to the U.S. from Turkey, is a legal permanent resident who has been living in Oak Harbor, authorities said. He had been arrested once before in the county for assault, Hawley said. (AP) See more news-related photo galleries and follow us on Yahoo News Photo Tumblr.

    New theory on how insulin resistance, metabolic disease begin

    Does eating too much sugar cause type 2 diabetes? The answer may not be simple, but a study published Sept. 26 in the Journal of Clinical Investigation adds to growing research linking excessive sugar consumption-specifically the sugar fructose-to a rise in metabolic disease worldwide. The study, conducted in mice and corroborated in human liver samples, unveils a metabolic process that could upend previous ideas about how the body becomes resistant to insulin and eventually develops diabetes. The increasing prevalence of diabetes is considered a health epidemic as more than 29 million people in the U.S. have diabetes and another 86 million have pre-diabetes, according to the Centers for Disease

[h=3]A rare 'Black Moon' will rise this Friday. Here's what that means[/h] The final day of September will bring a rare lunar event that hasn't occurred since March of 2014, a Black Moon. The term Black Moon has several definitions, but one of the most common definitions is the second new moon in a calendar month. This is similar to the well-known Blue Moon, which is the name given to the second full moon in a calendar month. Since it is a new moon, it will not be a visible event as the side of the moon that is illuminated will be facing away from the Earth. The last time that two new moons fell in the same month was March of 2014. While some areas of the world, such as the United States, experience a Black Moon in September, it will not be the case for the entire world.

The unidentified woman’s boyfriend posted the photo Sunday to the popular online bulletin board and captioned the picture, “Girlfriend in progress of having her watch stolen.” The photo shows the smiling blond victim posing with the two young children dressed in traditional Hmong garb holding on to each of her arms as one of them appears to unbuckle the woman’s watch on the steps of the Wat Phra That Doi Suthep temple in the province of Chiang Mai.
