There’s a stigma about peeing in the shower . . . but maybe there shouldn’t be.<\/p>\n
There’s an article going viral right now making a case for why we should all pee in the shower. \u00a0It’s because in the U.S. alone they would save 1.3 TRILLION GALLONS of water a year by not flushing the toilet all those times.<\/p>\n

ON THE MOON <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n There may be a copy of Wikipedia on the moon — but no one knows exactly where.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In addition, there’s also a library of 30,000 books and 5,000 languages. The project was started by the Arch Foundation — the same company that gave\u00a0Elon Musk<\/strong>\u00a0a test copy of\u00a0Isaac Asimov<\/strong>‘s Foundation Trilogy to put aboard his spacebound Tesla Roadster.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Arch Lunar Library contains 100GB, or 30 million pages of text and pictures and it’s embedded in 25 nickel disks in the tiniest type you can imagine. This library was supposed to be delivered to the surface of the moon by Israel’s Beresheet Mission last week. But, after a glitch that turned its engine off and on again at the most crucial moment, the Beresheet lander smashed into the moon at 300 miles per hour.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But there’s good news! Those disks were designed to be indestructible. And the Arch Foundation is pretty sure its payload survived the crash.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Arch Mission co-founder\u00a0Nova Spivack<\/strong>\u00a0said, \u201cWe have either installed the first library on the moon, or we have installed the first archaeological ruins of early human attempts to build a library on the moon.”<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n ________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n <\/p>\n MONDAY APRIL 22ND<\/sup> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n TODAY\u2019S BIRTHDAYS <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n [82] Jack Nicholson, actor\/3-time Oscar winner<\/p>\n [33] Amber Heard, actress<\/p>\n ——————————————————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Colorado Avalanche 5, Calgary Flames 1 \u2013 Colorado wins 4-1<\/p>\n St. Louis Blues 3, Winnipeg Jets 2 \u2013 St. Louis wins 4-2<\/p>\n Dallas Stars 5, Nashville Predators 3 \u2013 Dallas leads 3-2<\/p>\n Washington Capitals 6, Carolina Hurricanes 0 \u2013 Washington leads 3-2<\/p>\n Boston Bruins 4, Toronto Maple Leafs 2 — Series tied 3-3<\/p>\n San Jose Sharks 2, Vegas Golden Knights 1 — Series tied 3-3<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n That means the jackpot for the next draw on April 26 will grow to approximately $35 million<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A ticket holder in Ontario won the $13.4-million jackpot in Saturday night’s Lotto 649 draw.
