It continues to baffle me why Clinton never refreshes her complaints against Trump. The guy gives her fresh potential material literally every day, and she’s still droning on about Trump’s Mexican-American judge insult, and his attack on “a Gold Star family.� This night, she made two Celebrity Apprentice digs too many. As Trump said at a different moment, “We’ve heard this before, Hillary.� On television, to be compelling, you have to present something new each time you take command of the camera, something Clinton fails at, and at which Trump excels. But then, Clinton excels at answering the question asked of her, whereas Trump only talks about what is occurring to his mind at that moment.

Thrusters intended to slow a European lander as it neared Mars on Wednesday fired for less time than expected before contact with the vehicle was lost, leaving scientists uncertain whether it touched down safely or broke apart.
Or it could be something else altogether.

"I win my second Academy Award, and the next couple of movies later, I get offered a movie, but the male actor hadn't had any kind of critical success but had been in a movie where he was hot," Swank recalled of being offered the role after winning an Oscar for the 2005 boxing drama, Million Dollar Baby.
"And he got offered $10 million, and I got offered $500,000," she said.
In the end, Swank turned down the role and filmmakers turned to a lesser-known actress who was willing to take an even smaller cut.
"They went and found a newcomer actress who did it for $50,000," Swank continued. "They made a savings of $450,000, probably to give the guy his bonuses."

Nudist cruise worker raped guest and threw her overboard - but she used acrobat training to cling to side
By MARYSE GODDEN
JAILED FOR 30 YEARS
Ketut Pujayasa told police he wanted to punish the 32-year-old woman because he believed she had insulted him and his mother
A CRUISE ship worker who raped and tried to kill a passenger after hiding in her cabin has been jailed more than 30 years for the violent attack.
Ketut Pujayasa, 31, from Indonesia, pleaded guilty to brutally raping and beating an American female guest and trying to throw her overboard a nude Nieuw Amsterdam cruise from Port Everglades, Florida, US.
Pujayasa, who worked as a room service attendant, confessed to the horrific crime, saying he was punishing the 32-year-old woman because he believed she had insulted him and his mother.
He told police she allegedly said “Wait a minute! Son of a bitch!" when he knocked on her door with her breakfast.
Investigators said Pujayasa entered her cabin with a master key and used a telephone cord and cord to her curling iron to strangle the woman.
The unnamed victim fought for her life as she was savagely beaten and raped
During the savage attack, which lasted up to an hour, Pujayasa battered her with various objects inside the room and knocked her unconscious before raping her.
After the assault, he tried to throw her overboard from the balcony but thanks to her training as an acrobat and gym instructor, she was able to hold on and escape.
Pujayasa then left the room by jumping from balcony to balcony and told a colleague what he had done.
The colleague reported him to a superior and was held by security until they reached a USA port.
According to the lawsuit: “Pujayasa beat her head and face so hard that she experienced shifting of her teeth. All of the trauma to her head produced a traumatic brain injury.�
Photographs of the victim’s injuries were shown to a Miami court which included fractures to her spine, skull and face.
Police reports described the woman, who cannot be named, emerging from the room partially naked and “painted with blood� from head to toe.
She also had bites to the hands, swelling, bruising and lacerations to the face, scalp, head, neck, back, front of torso, arms, and legs and abrasions on both arms.
Her teeth were knocked out of place and her face was covered with broken blood vessels from Pujayasa’s repeated attempts to strangle her.
She now suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder and cannot be left alone for more than a few minutes.
“He has changed the way I live forever,� the victim wrote. “He took my dreams, he took my independence, he took my self-esteem. He has ruined my life.�
Ketut Pujayasa pleaded guilty charges of aggravated sexual assault and attempted murder and was sentenced to 30 years and five months in a Texas federal prison.
Pujayasa is expected to be deported to his native Indonesia after serving his sentence.

While the list of STDs didn't include AIDS, nonetheless it's still seriously unethical to have unprotected sex knowing you've multiple STDs right now, while deceitfully concealing this from your girlfriend in order to selfishly enjoy unprotected sex for yourself.

Problem is, increasing fear-based nationalistic and victim-centric hostile sentiment (many Chinese feel bullied and invaded by the USA when reading such reports, especially biased reports by nationalistic China media) may force the government & military to increase aggressiveness and hostilities. If a war ever breaks out between USA and China, the entire world will be destroyed (not forgetting Russia, Korea, everyone will be drawn inexorably into the conflict making it a global one)

The beautiful irony, is that when games were graphically so much simpler back then (compared to the much more complete graphics of games these days), you engaged your own imagination more, which made for deeper emotional engagement.
That said, with an appreciative willingness, you would still thoroughly enjoy both types of games, back then and now.

China Man Bites Head Off Live Baby Rat... now why would he want to do that?

A few years ago, my husband and I went to a restaurant on a Friday night. The Aperol spritzes had just arrived — we lived in Geneva, where the language is French and the cocktails are Italian — when a man I didn’t know approached our table.
He started talking in French. My husband chatted back. On the sidelines, I limbered up my “bonsoir�s and “enchantée�s.
But I never got the call-up. The man walked off, and I remained an unidentified sitting object — mute, anonymous, peeved.
“Why didn’t you introduce me?� I angrily asked my husband.
“Why would I?� he replied, surprised. “That wouldn’t be normal. I don't even know the guy.�
LOL. I can totally empathize and sympathize with both the husband and the wife.

PAPsmear-er posted :
A little bird told me this is the reason for the rift between the sister Lee Wei Ling on the one hand and Lee Hsien Loong and wife Ho Ching on the other hand.
After Old man died in March 2015, it was discovered that he had brought back many govt papers, some of which were potentially of a sensitive nature, and as well, among his private papers were matters relating to his assets in relation to his estates. Because no one could trusted to go through all the paper work and documents other then a family member, it was decided at the funeral that Ho Ching would take a 3 month sabbatical to go through all of it. Wei Ling was too busy with her practice and Hsien Yang was not too interested, so it came down to Ho Ching. That is why Ho Ching's sabbatical started in April 2015.
During the search of Old Man's documents, Ho Ching discovered the transcripts of Old Man's interviews and without consulting anyone assumed that they were state documents, among the many other state documents that were at the house. She handed the transcripts over to the cabinet secretary Tan Kee Yong, as his office is also located in the PMO. And he was some one she was familiar with as she sees him where ever she goes to the PMO. The transcripts were then turn over to the govt's care by Mr Tan and so she thought that was the end of it. It was only later when she mentioned that she had turned in the transcripts, that she was informed by Lee Wei Ling that those transcripts were the property of the Estate and not the govt. Ho Ching had a different opinion, and that is that since those interviews were made in LKY's capacity as PM, they cannot belong to him privately and has to belong to the state. While serving as Prime Minister, anything he says formally as in the interviews, should and has to be on public record. Nothing that a govt official puts into an official transcript can belong to that govt official.
As such, Ho Ching refused to retrieve the transcripts from Tan Kee Yong, and in fact on principal, it was determined by her that they were state property. As a result, LHL was put in a hard position. His sister wanted him to order the transcripts returned to the estate. But his wife told him that they belong to the state and hence, should not be returned. What was he supposed to do, caught between a rock and a hard place? In the end, he had no choice but to side with the wife or face matrimonial discord.
As a result, Lee Wei Ling, who had by this time pressured a reluctant LHY to back her up, launched the lawsuit against the state to get the transcripts back. The unnamed family member in the lawsuit that turn over the transcripts is Ho Ching. Of course, the judge already knew how it was going to play out and denied their legal action. Hence, the war of words erupted between LWL and Ho Ching and LHY. You have the monkey with the middle finger instagram by Madam Ho, and remarks such as "dishonourable son" by LWL. I think the rift is possibly irreparable now between LWL and LHL / Ho Ching.
Its quite likely, that LWL, being like the bull in the china shop barged into Ho Ching and berated her for giving the transcripts to the govt. Its a simple procedure to get Hsien Loong to get it back. But after the scolding from LWL, I think Ho Ching just simply decided to screw her and told the husband not to give the transcripts back. And hence, the state of the relationship is where it is today.
