Here’s what happens when you don’t shower for two days (and it’s pretty vile)
The smell that comes off you isn’t just sweat - it’s actually the gases given off by bacteria eating your proteins and fatty acids. Mandy Kennedy of Twenty Two Words says, ‘This can lead to as many as 30 bad smells. Obviously, the idea of bacteria feasting on your fluids is pretty gross - but there is a ‘half way house’ if you’re worried, Kennedy says.

Blair hints at return to frontline politics to save Brexit Britain
Former Prime Minister Tony Blair could return to a frontline role in British politics to try to prevent Theresa May's Conservative Party from destroying the country with a so-called "hard Brexit", he said in an interview. The only Labour prime minister to win three general elections, Blair was hugely popular during the start of his 10 years in power but his support for the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq severely tarnished his reputation. In an interview with Esquire Magazine, Blair said it was a "tragedy" that Britons were left with a choice between a Conservative Party intent on a hard Brexit and a Labour Party that he described as "ultra-left" and stuck in the 1960s.

This is the reason Prince George only wears shorts (17 photos)
When Prince George steps out on Royal engagements, two things are certain. One, he almost always wears shorts. Two, he looks hella cute in them. But it turns out there’s a reason behind the preppy prince’s signature shorts and knee-high socks. Etiquette expert William Hanson told Harper’s Bazaar U.K. that Prince George’s look has ties to upper class aristocratic tradition. “It’s a very English thing to dress a young boy in shorts,” Hanson said. "Trousers are for older boys and men, whereas shorts on young boys is one of those silent class markers that we have in England. “Although times are (slowly) changing, a pair of trousers on a young boy is considered quite middle class – quite suburban. And no self-respecting aristo or royal would want to be considered suburban. Even the Duchess of Cambridge.” Tradition or not, we need no excuse to adore Prince George's shorts.

Estonia, Finland say Russia entered airspace before U.S. defence pact
By Tuomas Forsell and Jussi Rosendahl HELSINKI (Reuters) - Estonia said a Russian jet violated its airspace on Friday, hours after neighbouring Finland said two similar planes passed over its territory as it prepared to sign a defence pact with the United States. Moscow denied sending planes across anyone's borders - but one analyst said the flights could have been staged as a reminder of Russia's influence, as countries in the region looked to strengthen ties with the West. Estonia's defence ministry said a Russian fighter jet entered its airspace for less than a minute with its transponder turned off at 2.38 a.m. (2338 GMT, Thursday).
