50 years ago, in upstate New York, music history was made as a bunch of rock-lovers crowded onto a patch of muddy farmland for what is now remembered as maybe the greatest music festival of all time: Woodstock. To celebrate the event's gold anniversary, another festival is being staged.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!
