DENTS RUN, Pennsylvania (PNN) - October 10, 2018 - Dennis and Kem Parada have spent years prospecting for a legendary stash of Civil War gold in Dents Run, Pennsylvania.

They aren’t the first to search for the cache. Generations of treasure hunters have tried to find the gold, which is believed to have been lost or stolen around the time of the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg, when the Union Army was attempting to transport it from West Virginia to Philadelphia.

The Paradas spent five years digging in a cave on state land and two more years drilling atop the cave before going to the FBI in January with their evidence.

Last March, feeling quite certain they had found the treasure’s hiding place, the Paradas led the FBI to the spot.

While towns across the Fascist Police States of Amerika have ordinances laid out to establish times for trick-or-treating, in Virginia, these laws go to the extreme.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (PNN) - October 8, 2018 - We’re all guilty of the Crop. You know, that group photo where you look so good that - sorry bestie, apologies grandma, see ya, ex - you carefully crop out the other person.

But what if there was a tool that could erase people and things automatically - a magic wand that could do hours of imperfect Photoshop work in an instant? Now, thanks to an MIT Media Lab project led by Matt Groh, that tool is real - if still imperfect.

Give guns to good people.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (PNN) - October 8, 2018 - Jair Bolsonaro topped the poll in the first round of Brazil's presidential elections, having seduced tens of millions of voters with simple - though radical - solutions to eradicating violence in one of the world's deadliest countries.

For many, Bolsonaro has the answer to the question that has preoccupied them for years - how to lower the crime rate in a country with more than seven murders an hour?

"Give guns to good people," the former paratrooper insisted during campaign meetings.

Switzerland is no longer a tax haven or secure place for foreign investments.

ZURICH, Switzerland (PNN) - October 6, 2018 - It's the end of an era for Switzerland's notorious secret bank accounts, as the world's historical haven for managing offshore wealth began automatically sharing client data with tax authorities in dozens of other countries.
