You would think that having a baby monitor, that has a camera, would make life easier for parents of young children.  Not so, says the parents of a 3-year-old boy in Washington.  The little boy kept complaining that some stranger was talking to him through the monitoring device.

His parents, Jay and Sarah, were confused about what he could be talking about.  Soon their confusion turned to horror as they discovered that their toddler was being spied on by a stranger who had hacked the monitor!

CBS News reported on this in the upcoming video, where you will actually hear the intruder speaking in a really creepy way to this scared child.

Sarah discovered this when she walked into her son’s room and heard a voice say, “wake up little boy, daddy’s looking for you”.  Later on,  Jay heard the same voice coming from the monitor continue, “look someone’s coming”, as Sarah entered the room.

Needless to say, both parents were alarmed and became more frightened when they noticed that the night-vision lens was being controlled by someone to follow their movements.  They immediately contacted the manufacturer of the monitor, Foscam, who informed them that it was more than likely someone had hacked their monitor using a smartphone app or computer.

They have shared this terrifying experience anonymously, to alert other parents of this danger.  CBS News confirmed, that due to the fact that monitors come equipped with internet and smartphone connectivity, this type of crime is occurring more and more frequently.

Watch the video for further description of this incident, and what is recommended to keep hackers from being able to access your baby monitor.

Apparently If You Use Hand Sanitizer You Need To Stop Right Now! The Reason Is Scary!

image via – youtube.com

We often squirt on hand sanitizer onto our skin without thinking twice about it, and why wouldn’t we? The bottles all appear to make the claim that they effectively kill almost all of the germs found on hands and skin.

That promise may be true, but when you use a product that “kills 99% of germs” you inevitably end up killing all of the healthy good bacteria along with the bad. That alone can lead to a lot of far reaching negative consequences, which are covered in more detail below.

Once you learn more about the astoundingly horrible impact that hand sanitizer can wreak on your health, you’ll likely never use it again. In the end, it’s much safer and just as effective to use plain old soap and water to clean your hands and skin, here’s why.

1) Helps create drug resistant bacteria. This is a problem which has been steadily growing and is becoming more and more of a threat to public health. When bacteria are exposed to something that kills it over and over again they learn to adapt and evolve ways around it.

Over time the bacteria develops a resistance to whatever that may be, whether it’s anti-bacterial hand sanitizer or antibiotics, and they become ineffective at fighting and killing the harmful bacteria. Bacteria which has evolved in this manner are called “superbugs” and they’re responsible for a growing number of deaths with every passing year.

When triclosan, the active ingredient in sanitizer, kills the good germs on skin it leaves behind the drug resistant ones because they can’t be killed, and with no competition they flourish.

2) Harms skin. The ingredients in sanitizer are harsh, they have to be in order to kill bacteria, and our skin ends up suffering. Most brands feature ethyl alcohol, aka pure alcohol, as the main ingredient and contain around 65% of it along with other alcohol types like isopropyl alcohol.

Together they form up to 95% of the total product and that’s what you’re slathering on your body. Alcohol is easily absorbed into skin and from there it can reach the blood stream.

It also dries out skin and increases its absorption abilities, meaning that the other harmful chemicals in sanitizer or that you come into contact with get taken up by your body. Also, kids have been known to drink hand sanitizer to get drunk off of it, that’s just scary.

3) It can increase the amount of Bisephenol A (BPA) in your body. As mentioned above, hand sanitizer increases skins absorption abilities and can thus increase BPA absorption rates. BPA is a chemical that imitates human hormones, leading to disruptions in our bodies natural systems, and it’s virtually impossible to avoid since it’s widely used in making hard plastics.

Studies have linked BPA to numerous health problems like cancer, hormone disorders, infertility, diabetes, heart disease, and more. The accompanying video talks about some of these recent studies and focuses more in depth on the BPA problem associated with sanitizer so be sure to check it out.

4) It may contain other harmful chemicals. Many companies fail to list the ingredients or detail what amounts they contain on the label. Other than alcohol and triclosan there are several harmful and dangerous chemicals commonly added to sanitizer.

Scented types are worse because they’re far more likely to contain phthalates and parabens, which are used to preserve the product and make it last longer. They have been linked to hormone disruption and production and there’s no way of telling a sanitizer contains them if it’s not listed, which it likely never is.

There are other issues associated with hand sanitizers but these are the main ones that you should be aware and informed of.

That way you can look further into the risks and decide for yourself whether or not they outweigh the benefits.

Koko The Gorilla Has An Alarming Message For Humanity! This Gave Me Chills..

image via – youtube.com

Koko, the world famous western lowland gorilla, is weighing in on the state of Mother Earth in a message for all of humanity. In the heartbreaking clip she uses sign language to communicate her thoughts and feelings on climate change and mankind’s harmful effect on biodiversity and the environment.

The sixty second video starts off with her signing “I am gorilla… I am flowers, animals… I am Nature. Man Koko love. Earth Koko love. She continues on, changing her tone from one of love to one of urgency saying, “But man stupid… stupid! Koko sorry… Koko cry.  Time hurry! Fix Earth! Help Earth! Hurry… Protect Earth… Nature see you. Thank you.”

Koko, who is now 44 years old, has been learning sign language since the age of one. She is said to be able to understand over 1,000 signs of what her trainer, Francine Patterson, calls Gorilla Sign Language (GSL).

In addition, she was simultaneously introduced to spoken English at an early age and understands about 2,000 English words because of this. To truly understand Koko’s message, you have to know the backstory to this video and that it was scripted in part by both The Gorilla Foundation and NOE Conservation.

The French conservation association is primarily focused on preserving biodiversity, while the foundation supports Koko and is where she has lived for many, many years. They worked together to help promote and increase awareness of their message of conservation ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) that was held in Paris this past November 30 – December 12.

Her iconic status and extremely rare ability to communicate directly with people is why Koko was chosen by the two groups to act as an ambassador on behalf of endangered species everywhere. She was told about the events and informed of the issues surrounding the Paris discussions and then her reaction to it was captured.

According to a spokesman for The Gorilla Foundation, “We presented her with a script drafted by NOE and allowed her to improvise during a series of brief daily video discussion sessions. The result was edited from a number of separate takes, for brevity and continuity.”

In the end, it offers an eye-opening, powerfully symbolic take on all of the damage to the environment and the harmful effects that man has inflicted on the planet. Take a moment to listen and check it out.

This Guy Bought A Dog Proof Food Box To Keep The Dog Food In. But A Hidden Camera Caught THIS!

image via – youtube.com

All dog owners know how hard it is to keep certain dogs from eating either their own or human food.  Dogs can get sick from so many things they get into, so it’s always a challenge.  We try to “dog-proof” things we don’t want our pups getting into so that don’t overeat or make a mess.

That is what Gil Jacobs had in mind with the really unique dog food container that you are about to see in the video below. He was trying to keep MeMe, his Australian shepherd, from stealing his dog food when it wasn’t meal time. When you see this clever contraption it looks like it will do the job…

This doggie-proof container seems like it will be a challenge for MeMe.  Try, try again seems to be his motto.  This clever pup has other ideas, as Jacobs sees when he reviews the footage that is caught on camera!

This is great enjoy the video below!

Can You Answer These Thoughtful IQ Questions Correctly?

image via – shutterstock.com

IQ, which stands for intelligence quotient, is the supposed measurement of a limited sliver of the wide range of human intelligence based on the score resulting from specific standardized tests. About two thirds of the population have an IQ between 85 and 100, with about five percent scoring above 125.

Although IQ tests do not measure all types of intelligence, they are useful in that they create a standard by which intelligence can be compared amongst the population, which is useful in many fields of scientific study and education.

Scientific studies have shown links between a person’s IQ and that of their parents, showing that it is a genetically inherited trait to some degree. It has also been discovered that many populations have had a steady increase in IQ over time, which is called the Flynn Effect.

Since the early 1900’s, there has been an average IQ increase of three points per decade. IQ testing continues to be a helpful tool in the field of human intelligence research. One might argue that its use in education or in job placement might help to create pre-conceived notions that limit a person before they even have a chance, but it is also beneficial because it can allow individuals the different attention they might need.

For example, it can help in discovering learning disabilities or aptitudes that otherwise might have taken some time to notice, allowing a person to be placed in a more appropriate environment for their learning needs.

Some scientists believe that social IQ, rather than quantitative intelligence, is the driving force for the evolution of the human brain and therefore intelligence in general. Social IQ, according to its proponents, more accurately defines human intelligence since we are social creatures for whom successful human interaction can mean the difference between survival and its opposite.

Prior to our modern society, a person who would score high on an IQ test, but has low social IQ would be less likely to survive because they would be more likely to be ostracized by their group.

Take the test and find out if you can answer correctly! Let us know your results!

She Places Her Feet In A Listerine Bath For A Half Hour and Her Reason Is Genius!

image via – youtube.com

Day in and day out our hands and feet take a beating. Out of all our body parts they are perhaps the most used ones, making problems and issues that develop with them inevitable. Feet in particular are often overlooked and many of us will have to deal with calluses, cracked heels, toenail fungus, and dead skin at some point in our lives.

These things can grow worse over time and it’s best to treat them right away, before what was once a simple case turns into a nightmare of a problem. There are all sorts of gels, creams, sprays, and soaks available at pharmacies and stores that promise to treat foot issues but they are often ineffective and extremely harsh.

The chemicals and poisons they contain can have even worse effects on your body than the problem you’re trying to treat, so it’s best to avoid them at all costs. Instead, try this at home remedy that can clean your feet up and leave them smelling minty fresh.

All that you need is a shallow tub or container big enough to fit your feet, a bottle of Listerine, vinegar, and some warm water. In the tub combine a ½ cup of Listerine with ½ cup of vinegar and 2 cups of warm water. Stick your feet in the liquid and allow them to soak for at least 30-35 minutes, then after you remove them, rinse them off in the bath under warm running water.

Make sure to completely dry in between your toes and smooth on some lotion because your skin will be thirsty for moisturizer. This Listerine and vinegar foot soak will leave your skin feeling incredibly soft and silky smooth. It gently dissolves away old, dead skin cells and helps to prevent both toenail fungus and calluses.

The alcohol in the mouthwash effectively kills all of the bacteria and germs on feet and under toenails, which is the main cause of most people’s foot odor. However, it only helps with minor problems and won’t work so well with more serious or advanced foot issues that often require a doctor.

This treatment is incredibly simple, easy, and can be done in the comfort of your home anytime. Think about it like this; you have nothing to lose and potentially lots to gain by giving yourself a relaxing foot soak. At the very least you will feel more at ease and comfortable, plus your feet will smell great.

If You Put These 2 Ingredients In Your Ear You Can Get Rid Of Ear Wax and Ear Infections For Good!

image via – youtube.com

Whenever the topic of either earwax or ear cleaning is brought up, you likely think to yourself something along the lines of “eww, gross!” People often view earwax as a sign of bodily uncleanliness because it sounds and looks gross. It’s natural to automatically assume that earwax is nasty and view it in such a negative light, after all it’s a bodily fluid that comes out of our ears, there is absolutely nothing appealing about it whatsoever.

That’s also why people tend to stick all sorts of cleaning solutions, Q-tips, and even automatic ear cleaner gadgets in their ears, in vain attempts to remove the offensive substance. If you’re guilty of doing any of the aforementioned things, you should definitely re-think your ear-care routine and learn why that is bad for your health.

Whenever you stick anything into your ears you are simply making them dirtier and increasing the odds of developing an ear infection, or potentially something even worse. Every year there are countless numbers of people who injure and damage their inner ears because they stick Q-tips way too far and forcibly into them.

Yet the fact remains that the most common way, by far, in which people go about cleaning their ears is with Q-tips. Doing this is the wrong way to clean them, it’s ineffective and just pushes the wax further into the ear canal thereby increasing the potential for build up and blockage. Whatever you do, don’t use Q-tips to try and clean your ears.

Instead, gently wash the outside area with a washcloth and then use a solution of white vinegar and rubbing alcohol to help dissolve the wax gently and naturally. Here’s exactly how you should do it. First, in a small bowl mix together equal parts distilled white vinegar and rubbing alcohol.

Soak a cotton ball in the liquid and then tilt your head so that the ear you want to clean faces upwards. Gently squeeze the cotton ball to release a few drops into the ear opening and wait 4-5 minutes. Now you can straighten your head and dab up the remaining liquid as it drips out with a tissue.

That’s all it takes, you don’t have to poke anything up your ear or spend a bunch of money. The bad reputation that earwax has developed is based on nothing but false information and it’s totally without merit. The yellowish waxy substance is naturally produced by our bodies and is beneficial to our health in several important ways.

It helps to protect our inner ears from all sorts of nasty stuff like infections, dust, dirt, bacteria, and other germs that would otherwise enter into them. The wax also forms a protective barrier on the surface of the very delicate skin in our ear canals which prevents it from becoming irritated when water gets inside.

Plus, it moisturizes and keeps that skin from becoming dry, flaky, and itchy.Ear wax is produced by the teeny tiny hair follicles that line the ear canal. It normally makes its way out of the opening of the ear naturally and on its own, but sometimes wax can build up and cause blockage problems.

If you feel that there is a blockage due to wax build up in your ear, you can try the aforementioned remedy or go see a doctor if the issue is potentially more serious.

Which is exactly what one sweet horse named Cheeky was captured on tape doing. He and his owner, Emma Jones, were hanging out in the barn one beautiful afternoon in Worcester, England. They were relaxing and spending some quality time together when all of a sudden the hit song “All About That Bass” by Meghan Trainor came on the radio.

That was Emma and Cheeky’s jam and the beautiful chestnut brown horse couldn’t help himself, he had to rock out to it! Emma started their duet off and began dancing near Cheeky’s stall, then a few second later she pointed and handed the dance floor over to him.

Cheeky was ready and rearing to go, he immediately started boogieing down and was shaking and bobbing his head like a pro. The two take turns dancing and having the time of their lives, it’s the cutest thing ever and perfectly timed. Cheeky certainly lived up to his name that day!

Ever since then, the video of the pair horsing around quickly went viral and captured the hearts and attention of people all over the world.
