Doctors say drinking artificially-sweetened drinks like Diet Coke could make you more likely to put weight on. Researchers (University of South Australia) found that people who consume low calorie sweeteners (LCS) don’t reduce their overall sugar intake. The lead researcher said: “Consumers of artificial sweeteners do not reduce their overall intake of sugar. They use both sugar and low-calorie sweeteners and may psychologically feel they can indulge in their favorite foods. Artificial sweeteners can also change the gut bacteria which may lead to weight gain and risk of type 2 diabetes.”

A St. Paul man has been charged after allegedly carjacking five people in the span of an hour and ten minutes in Minneapolis. His arrest and charges were part of the “carjacking crackdown,” in which the Minneapolis Police Department and the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office announced they had arrested approximately fifty people for the crime. 20-year-old Brandon Lee Rock was charged in Hennepin County with five counts of first-degree aggravated robbery and one count of assault with a dangerous weapon. Between 7:00 a.m. and 8:10 a.m. Rock and an unnamed young boy approached multiple cars and robbed the drivers. Officers executed a search warrant at around 2400 Ogema Place. While searching the residence, officers found multiple personal items believed to belong to the victims and a loaded 9mm handgun. Rock was at the address and was arrested. If convicted, Rock could serve up to 107 years in prison. (https://cbsloc.al/3h6eb3B)

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by TimeForRehab.com

A man was caught on camera rollerblading naked down an eight-lane Ohio highway — wearing only a giant plush panda head. The roller-streaker was seen zipping at a remarkably high speed while clutching a golf club on I-670 in Columbus Tuesday — irking drivers who honked and gawked. “This dude’s on the freeway naked!” one stunned motorist can be heard saying as he shoots wild footage of the incident. When the driver honks, the birthday-suited blader moves to the shoulder of the highway to let his car pass, the now-viral video shows. The oddball’s identity wasn’t known as of Thursday, according to authorities who told WTRF-TV that the naked guy’s choice of transit was their biggest concern. “Pedestrians are not permitted on interstate highways,” a spokesman at the Ohio Department of Transportation said. “There are signs posted at all the entrance ramps. This is a safety issue.” (https://bit.ly/3h3RQnx)
