An English musician was kicked off a U.S. tour just hours after videos surfaced of her saying she supports Republicans.

Rapper M.I.A., whose real name Mathangi Arulpragasam, is of Sri Lankan descent but was born in London in 1975. Aside from having hit records, the artist has generated headlines in recent years for calling out the music industry as a bastion of Satanism that pushes degeneracy.

Russians drink nearly 4x more hard liquor than Americans — straight vodka, often before lunch, often on an empty stomach — and but have lower rates of liver problems than Americans. Researchers have been arguing about why for thirty years. They blamed Russian genetics, then the cold climate, then the pickled foods, then "they just die before it shows up."

Is that in American numbers or metric numbers?

Times that by 4 and it's a gallon. And the dollar represents Singapore dollars. It's worth more than the Canadian dollar but less than the US dollar.
