    1. Want protection from UFOs?

    In the US, there is such a thing as alien abduction coverage. This means that – should you be abducted by aliens, and can prove it, you may be able to make a claim if you suffer damages. It’s been a policy staple for over 30 years now, and even weirder is the fact that the UFO Abduction Insurance Company states that they have paid out!

    2. Life insurance can skyrocket if you’re a celebrity.

    There are some pretty steep life insurance policies out there on some of the most influential people on the planet. For example, you’ll likely not find a policy pricier than Hollywood director Steven Spielberg, who reportedly has a policy worth $1.2 billion.

    3. Interesting insurance policies abound for astronauts.

    It’s thought that the brave astronauts taking to the Apollo 11 mission chose to autograph items for their loved ones to sell on in case they didn’t come back. Why? Believe it or not, life insurance was not a thing for this mission – luckily, NASA has likely wised up to this in the decades that followed!

  • Biden Plans To Do THIS With Bank Transactions

    Here’s what you need to know.

    The Biden administration plans to view all American’s bank transactions that are $600 or more. This plan is included in his recent infrastructure bill with the plan to tax more individuals and businesses on income that is earned but not reported. This plan is currently still at a stalemate in congress.

    “The administration’s proposal to require financial institutions to track and submit the vast majority of their banking customer information to the IRS risks major data breaches, infringes on financial privacy and overburdens the banking system with massive data collection responsibilities, all for a purpose that is not obviously served by the proposal,” said Mitch Waycaster, president and CEO of Renasant.

    BNA CEO Bo Collins also stated that the threshold for the government to view the transaction is a low amount considering the amount of purchases Americans make everyday. He continued stating that it would be more of a hassle for banks and small business because of the increase in tax.

  • WATCH: Cheerleader electrifies college football crowd with shocking leap

    via FOX College Football

    The most overtimes played in a college football game is seven. Two games are tied for this record, and the University of Arkansas Razorbacks played in both. The first was Arkansas vs Ole Miss in 2001 and the second was Arkansas vs Kentucky in 2001. Arkansas won both games.

    The longest field goal ever kicked in a college football game did not come from an NCAA school. In 1976, Ove Johannson of Abilene Christian, a NAIA school, kicked a 69 yard field goal that still stands as the longest on record.

    The longest field goal kicked in an NCAA game is 65 yards,. That record is held by Martin Gramatica of Kansas State, who achieved this in 1998 without aid of a kicking tee.

    In 2013 Rice player Jayson Carter became the shortest person to play in an NCAA Division I FBS game. He stands at just 4-foot, 9-inches.
    In the 2014 season, Florida State set a new record for the highest number of points scored in a season: 723.

    One Nostril?
    When we breathe in and out of our nose during the day, one nostril does most of the work at a time, with the duties switching every several hours. This “nasal cycle” is dictated by the same autonomic nervous system that regulates heart rate, digestion, and other unconscious bodily functions and is the reason why—when our nose gets stuffed up—it does so one nostril at a time.

    Copper door knobs are self-disinfecting.
    Copper and its alloys, such as brass, have long been popular materials for manufacturing door knobs. It turns out, this may not just because the metal’s hue makes it look nice. In fact, the material has been found to kill bacteria. According to one study from the National College of Kathmandu in Nepal, “the metal ions denature protein of the target cells by binding to reactive groups resulting in their precipitation and inactivation. The high affinity of cellular proteins for the metallic ions results in the death of the cells due to cumulative effects of the ion within the cells.” In other words, brass sterilizes the bacteria that can build up from all those (potentially unwashed) hands that grip it.
