He instagrammed; 'This is probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to share with my loyal fans. As you may all know, four years ago, this month, I had a major accident, where I damaged my spine. My one and only purpose during this time has been to get back on stage. My singing voice is fine. However, after three operations, stem cell treatments, endless physical therapy sessions, and most recently groundbreaking Cybernics (HAL) Treatment, my body is still physically weak. Never would I have imagined that my touring days would have ended this way. My team is currently coming up with ideas for where I will be able to perform without having to travel from city to city and country to country. I want to thank my family……my band…….my crew……my longtime friends, @JudasPriest, and of course, my fans for their endless dedication, loyalty, and support, and for giving me the life that I never ever dreamed I would have. I love you all.'

Junk Food May Cause Cancer
A new study by Imperial College reveals that eating junk food may increase the risk of cancer. Scientists studied the diets of 197,000 people over the course of a decade. They concluded; “The average person consumes more than half of their daily energy intake from ultra-processed foods. This is exceptionally high and concerning as ultra-processed foods are produced with industrially derived ingredients and often use additives to adjust color, flavor, consistency, texture, or extend shelf-life. Our bodies may not react the same way to these ultra-processed ingredients and additives as they do to fresh and nutritious, minimally processed foods. This adds to the growing evidence linking these foods to cancer and other health conditions.”
Dear Fonseca
I recently divorced after 11 years of marriage. I work from home so it's hard to meet people. I joined Tinder, Match.com and POF. I've been on two dates with what I think is a great guy. I was telling my friends about him at work. They wanted to look him up on Facebook. He told me he doesn't do social media. My friends say that's a red flag and that he's most likely married. Now they have me thinking the worst. Would him not having any social media accounts be a red flag? What are some other red flags I should look for?
