It is no accident that Putin praised Trump as “a really brilliant and talented person, without any doubt.� It is also no accident that Putin’s cyberagents have hacked the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign — to create embarrassing leaks — while ignoring both Trump and the G.O.P. It’s because Putin knows the same thing that Gates does: A President Trump would keep Washington and the Western alliance in turmoil.
That’s why the cynical Putin admires Trump. Trump, narcissist that he is, thinks it’s because Putin genuinely admires his amazing leadership qualities. No, Donald. It’s because Putin knows an incompetent mess-maker when he sees one, and the thought of America being led by a man who would be wildly unpopular simultaneously in Europe, Beijing, Mexico, South America and the Muslim world is for Putin a dream come true.

"If you impulsively sit up right when the earthquake starts, the bed decapitates or cuts you in half. If you have your limbs out at the wrong places, you lose them. If you live in a tall building and it collapses, the force of impact turns your insides into jelly. If the thing gets buried, falls into water, or get surrounded by fire, it basically becomes an expensive torture coffin."

He said, "The truth is I'm afraid to let her know that I have a mother who works as a beer aunty. When I was young, the people around me would say nasty remarks about my mother and make me feel inferior."
Adding that this was why he studied hard to end up in NUS, he said that he felt that her money was 'dirty'.
"These money came from low-class, old and despo drunkards who touched her hands.
"Ironically, it is these money that funded my university education.
"One of the shame and humiliation which cannot be erased from my life."
The student also said he has been lying that his mother is a busy businesswoman instead and is afraid that his girlfriend, who is from 'upper class society', might leave him upon learning the truth.
He ended his post by saying, "What have I done in my previous life to deserve a shameful mother!"
The confession has drawn flak, with the top comment in the thread being, "Your mum shouldn't have sold beer. she should have sold you when you were born."

Please help me identify this song, used in a MediaCorp Channel 8 / Channel U clip of an internal MediaCorp advert.
Anyone knows if this is a commercial song (by some Thai or China or Hong Kong or Taiwan singer), or if it's just some jingle done by MediaCorp themselves?
Please enlighten me if you know, thanks a lot!!!

The song is unusual, it really doesn't sound like a MediaCorp jingle (doesn't sound like any of the female deejays' voices), but doesn't easily fit into any Thai / China / Hong Kong / Taiwan / American song either.
The 'chorus lyrics' also can't be made out clearly, as if it's just one word repeated over and over again, sounds like "Silica" (but it can't possibly be referring to silicon dioxide SiO2, and it doesn't sound Chinese either, so I thought maybe it's a foreign language eg. Thai, Vietnam, etc).
Looks like this is one mystery song whose identity will go unsolved.

Thankfully, the Singapore University scene (NUS, NTU, SMU) is somewhat less ill-disciplined compared to the wild wild USA.

A girl who didn't report her rape, because she knew authorities would sweep it under the carpet.
Two years ago she went to a frat party that spiralled out of her control.
"I had a beer and then the next thing I know I like don't remember anything like just such a clear like black out that I've never experienced before (ie. drink must have been spiked with date rape drug) especially like for how little I drank before it and then how fast it happened."
She woke up at an apartment, "in this bed like with no clothes" and had "no idea where I was".
"I was so scared. I had some like bruises on my arms, looked like I was like grabbed and I had like some on my legs too," she says.
"So like I obviously knew something happened, and that was really hard and like so I just wanted to go home and shower and just forget about it."
