Yet lurking under this superficial demeanor was a cold-blooded killer who stalked, raped, murdered, and dismembered his victims. Later, he returned to violate the corpses further. He confessed to killing 30 young women and girls in seven states between 1974 and 1978, but the true total number of his victims is unknown.

Today, however, I am publishing a different type of Your View. Due to recent changes in the online advertising market (and more changes that are due to arrive before too long) it is getting more difficult to maintain high traffic sites from advertising revenue alone. Many large sites are shutting down due to loss of ad revenue. While we are not at risk of doing so ourselves, we are mindful of a future web without advertising funds....

There are so many truisms about staying healthy that we sometimes don’t use due diligence in determining if the advice given to us is even true. Then there are the old wives’ tales, passed down from one generation to the next, that often disregard the difference between fact and fiction. Below, you’ll find a list of 10 of the most common health cliches out there. None of them are true....

The question of why children commit murder leads us down a long, winding path of possible explanations, some of which give credence to the idea that some people are just quite simply born violent. Another line of thinking suggests that children who murder are, more often than not, victims of abuse, neglect, or other chaotic home lives which make for a recipe for disaster.[1] Children under 12 years old who commit murder are exceedingly rare, but it does happen, and child murderers over the age of 12 are actually quite common and have been throughout the entirety of human history....

10 Underwater Base Off The Coast Of Malibu California has been a UFO hot spot for years, so when it was theorized that a structure discovered 600 meters (2,000 ft) below the water 10 kilometers (6 mi) off the coast of Malibu was in fact an alien base, it didn’t come as that much of a surprise. The structure has a distinct oval shape and what appears to be flat top....

10 Baboons Remember going to the zoo for the first time and asking why the baboon’s butt looked so incredibly weird compared to . . . well, every other animal in the zoo? Although it certainly is an odd backside, the baboon has evolved its rear end to serve a very specific purpose: female baboons’ rear ends swell up to magnificent proportions when they are sexually receptive. This has become a contest of sorts where the females in a group will essentially compete with one another for the males’ attention....

However, there are European castles other than Neuschwanstein and Versailles. Europe is full of unique castles, hidden gems found off the beaten path. With little effort, you’ll find giant fortresses looming over old towns, ornate beauties hidden in the mountains, ruins on the coast, ancient strongholds balanced on the edge of cliffs, and more. You’ll be hard-pressed to find one that doesn’t strike your fancy, whether you prefer to view from afar, from a hiking path, from the inner courtyard, from a boat, or just from your own two feet....

Most people have heard about the ancient Egyptians, the Aztecs, and the Incas. But there are many more ancient civilizations that are not so well-known but which have left behind tantalizing glimpses into an older and very different way of life. Here are just a few of them. 10 Indus Valley Civilization3300–1300 BC The Indus Valley Civilization was located in an area that spans parts of modern-day Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India, on the plains near the Indus River....

Manufacturers know this, too, and often engineer the noises their products make to satisfy our erroneous beliefs. Carmakers especially are very guilty of this. However, movie and television studios, mobile phone makers, and even food companies have jumped on the bandwagon. 10 Electric Car Engines The engines of gasoline- and diesel-powered cars make lots of noise. However, that is not the case with the engines of electric and hybrid vehicles....

10 Prison For An American Hero Robert Morris, a Founding Father who signed the Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, and the United States Constitution, was known as the “Financier of the Revolution.” Without Morris, the colonies would have failed to secede from British rule. Nevertheless, he spent a few of his final years behind bars. Upon his retirement, Morris embarked on risky investments, one of which was building a mansion designed by renowned architect Pierre L’Enfant....

10 Hopi Sentenced To Alcatraz First discovered by the Portuguese and the Spanish in the 1540s, Alcatraz had already been inhabited for at least 10,000 years. By the time the Spanish came to the area, there were about 10,000 individuals settled in the Bay Area around the island. According to tradition, the island had long been used for exactly the same purposes it later was—isolating people who had broken a law....

In modern times, there has been a reclamation of the term “freak,” and freak show performers are working for themselves, helped out by Internet visibility and global access to their faces and stories. Bearded ladies can now be women who subvert gender stereotypes, make their own money, and perform or exhibit on their terms. Bearded sisters are, to be quite clear, doing it for themselves. The future of the freak show is glittering, consensual, and disarming, and right now, there is nothing hotter than a beautiful bearded lady....

Now, a little more than 40 years later, we do have the technology to rebuild human beings—or parts of them, at least. As these ten bionic innovations that could change medicine indicate, it may not be much longer before we can completely “rebuild” injured men and women. 10 Eye As a result of age-related macular degeneration, British pensioner Ray Flynn lost his ability to distinguish faces in 2009. His quality of life improved drastically in 2015, when he received an electrical implant that transmits a video feed to healthy cells in his retina....

10 The Iconic Mustache It’s difficult to imagine certain people without a mustache. Can you picture Hulk Hogan, Tom Selleck, or Salvador Dali without their trademark whiskers? Perhaps the most iconic (or infamous) mustache of all time belongs to Adolf Hitler. It’s almost impossible to picture the dictator without his trademark lip hair, and the look is so strongly associated with Adolf that growing a similar mustache is pretty much taboo....

10 Native Americans And Dinosaurs Vine Deloria was born near the Pine Ridge Oglala Sioux Indian Reservation in South Dakota and grew up in a family of mixed French and Native American influence. He has written much about the necessity of restoring tribal rights and ending some of the horrific atrocities being committed against Native Americans—like the complete destruction of their culture. Aside from all the good things he’s written, he’s also the one behind the pseudohistorical book Red Earth, White Lies, which claims that the theory of humans migrating across the Bering Strait and into the Americas is absolute bunk....

10Melvin Colon The effect that online communication is having on traditional friendships has been harped on by social critics since it began. Here’s one of the better unforeseen advantages of it: People are proving surprisingly free with secrets that would otherwise allow them to remain a danger to the public. One of the more memorable examples was Melvin Colon of New York City. In 2012, he was freely posting about how he was so tough and violent on his public Facebook profile....

10 Tauchpanzer Created by the Nazis for use in Operation Sea Lion, the planned (but never executed) invasion of the UK, the Tauchpanzer, literally meaning “diving tank,” was designed to be dropped off the coast, travel underwater on the sea floor, and clank ashore, ready to provide fire support for soldiers landing on the beaches of Britain. The Tauchpanzers were Panzer III tanks modified to be totally waterproof, featuring one-way exhaust valves, inflatable seals for the turret rings, and a hose attached to a flotation device to get air for the engine....

10 The Pearl William Lazenby, 1879-1880 This first entry is a slight cheat: The Pearl was not actually a book, but a magazine published briefly in 18 volumes and two Christmas Annuals until the publishers were threatened with prosecution for distributing obscene literature. The Pearl contained pornographic stories—many were serialized and included such classics as Lady Pokingham or They All Do It and Sub-Umbra or Sport Among the She-Noodles—plus dirty jokes, limericks, and humorous song and poem parodies....
