ABC NewsAfter becoming the first UFC fighter to hold belts in two weight divisions simultaneously, it looked like we weren’t going to see a lot of Conor McGregor in 2017.

PeopleCarol M. Highsmith | Buyenlarge | Getty Images) Most people are determined to live better in the year ahead. And that can simply come down to where you choose to live. The best places are likely the ones where you can find a job, earn a good salary and buy a nice home. In a 2016 report, job-hunting site Glassdoor calculated the top spots where your pay will go furthest, based on salaries and home values. To do so, the jobs site came up with a cost of living ratio - a city's median base salary divided by its median home value. (A higher ratio number is better.)

xoJaneThe name of Babylon, today, is used as a synonym for evil and debauchery. Our view of the ancient empire is colored by biblical history, and it’s not exactly flattering. It calls Babylon the “mother of prostitutes and of earth’s abominations” and says that “happy is he who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rocks.” In its time, though, Babylon was one of the world’s most powerful cities, a name uttered with awe.
