By Tess Pennington Hundreds of times each year, transportation and industrial accidents release harmful substances, forcing thousands of people to leave their homes on a moments notice. Natural disasters such as fires, floods, tornadoes and hurricanes also cause evacuations. Almost once a year, people along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts evacuate in the face of approaching hurricanes. FEMA Advance notice is not always given when it comes to evacuations. In certain circumstances, you could be given as little as a few minutes to leave. Would you be ready? Many preppers suggest having a bug out bag on standby when there

As biblical creationists, we can see how important the doctrine of creation is to the Bible’s ‘big story’ of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration. Many of us recall what it was like when the lights first ‘went on’ and we realized that Genesis could be trusted as an actual historical record. And especially when that revelation is fairly new to us, we can have great zeal when communicating that truth to others who have not yet had that ‘aha’ moment. At CMI, we love it when people get excited about creation, of course. Some of the most encouraging feedback we

By Dr. Mercola During a six-week period every summer, fishermen head out to Bristol Bay, Alaska, to catch their share of wild sockeye salmon. An estimated 38 million of the fish return to the bay each year, supporting a brief economy that creates 14,000 jobs and $1.5 billion in revenue.1 In a report prepared for the Bristol Bay Regional Seafood Development Association, it’s noted that the area is the world’s most valuable wild salmon fishery, supplying nearly half the global supply of wild sockeye salmon.2 Even as other Alaskan fisheries have suffered — due to pollution, deforestation, dams, toxic algae

A strict vegetarian diet has long been scrutinized for the toll it can take on a person’s physical wellbeing, but a new scientific report raises another important question: what about a vegetarian’s mental wellbeing? There’s a good deal of medical literature associating deficiencies of B12 and omega-3 with depression. These essential nutrients are most commonly found in meat, fish, and other animal products. So it’s not necessarily surprising to hear that vegetarianism is linked with depression. Even so, the report details a number of worrisome findings, citing data from a compilation of surveys examining different groups in different countries but

By Ken Ham I love hymns. Many churches don’t sing them anymore or only sing a select handful. But the powerful, often theologically rich lyrics are a wonderful way of passing the truth of the gospel on to the next generation. I believe we always need to use the best of the past and the best of the new. Sadly, many churches don’t use the best of the past when it comes to music. That’s why I’m excited about an event coming to the Answers Center at the Ark Encounter on June 19, 2020—the Gospel Music Hymn Sing. Join …read

By Dr. Mercola While the pitfalls of too little sleep have been well documented, there are also risks of sleeping too much, which is generally defined as more than nine hours a night. Specifically, excessive sleep, along with long midday naps, may increase your risk of stroke, according to a Chinese study involving 31,750 people.1 It’s unclear exactly why excess sleep increases stroke risk, but long nappers and sleepers are more likely to have increased waist circumferences and inactive lifestyles, both of which are risk factors for stroke. However, other mechanisms could also be at play, as the relationship between

In the 60 years since Aaron Lerner and colleagues isolated melatonin, the hormone has been found to affect every system of the body. Although it is primarily synthesized by the pineal gland, melatonin is also produced in peripheral tissues and serves numerous critical physiological functions.1 In mammals, its synthesis in the pineal gland is timed by the suprachiasmatic nucleus via projections to the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus. Melatonin is most well-known for its role in regulating circadian rhythm and sleep-wake cycles.1 Pineal melatonin production mainly occurs at night and is dependent on darkness, as light blocks its release. In addition to
