There’s no better good-time girl in the Bravo universe than Sonja Morgan. I think even Heather Gay would agree with me on that. The Real Housewives of New York star in an OG in her own right. Her legendary townhouse parties. Her celeb-filled yacht soirees. Hey, even when Ramona Singer had 50 of her best girlfriends in a room, Sonja still stole the show. She’s a fun-loving, good-spirited lady just looking for love and someone to buy her Upper East Side townhouse. Is that too much to ask? Sonja’s current season on RHONY is interesting, to say the least. She’s...

Turn on your JavaScript to view content Dr. Barbara Sturm is ICONIC. She’s been on the podcast ( listen here ) & she is featured in GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE SUN.

Kletr/ShutterstockAround 269 million people worldwide use drugs each year. Often forgotten in this story is a problem of basic biology. What goes in must come out.

Once in the environment, drugs and their byproducts can affect wildlife. In a recent study, researchers in the Czech...

ShutterstockWe know coal-fired power stations can generate high levels of carbon dioxide, but did you know they can be a major source of mercury emissions as well? Our new research compared the level of mercury pollution in the Hunter Valley in New South Wales and the Latrobe Valley in Victoria. And we found power stations in the Latrobe Valley emit around 10 times more mercury than power stations in the Hunter Valley. Indeed, the mercury level in the Latrobe Valley environment is 14 times higher than what’s typically natural for the region. So why is there such a stark difference...

The Simpsons have come a long way since an old drunk made humans out of his rabbit characters to pay off his gambling debts, or however Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and the rest of the Springfield gang came to be. Needless to say though that the creativity and the longevity of the series has surpassed all expectations, and with each passing year it seems that The Simpsons will continue on into the 30th century (as predicted on Matt Groening’s follow-up to The Simpsons, Futurama). In the meantime though, we can look at the last 20 years and take from...
