[MAIL] The teen who was found murdered after she allegedly robbed an Alabama hotel with her boyfriend told a friend she was scared of him and wanted to come home after he assaulted her.
Baylee Wall, 18, was found dead in Cincinatti, Ohio, on October 23 after two days on the run from police who claimed she helped her 25-year-old boyfriend Gary Eubanks Jr rob the Microtel Inn in Daphne, Alabama, on October 21.
Authorities are still searching for Eubanks Jr, who is reportedly being treated as a person of interest in Baylee's murder.
The slain teen's stepfather, Steven Tillman, told Fox Cincinnati that she and Eubanks Jr began dating in August 2019 and that she had recently sent a photo to her friend showing her with a busted lip.
Tillman said that his stepdaughter told the friend she was 'scared [and] wanting to come home'.
He expressed shock over the idea that Baylee, who lived in Hurley, Mississippi and was the mother of a two-year-old girl, would be involved with someone violent and that she would participate in an armed robbery.
'I still can't believe it. I really can't on either issue,' Tillman said. 'That's not how she was raised. That's not how she was.'
He added: 'She was a very outgoing person. Loved to laugh and you know, just your typical 18-year-old girl.' ...with a 2-yr old child
[Washington Examiner] WarnerMedia executives caused some consternation among CNN employees with the decision to hire actor Morgan Freeman to narrate a presentation to investors.
WarnerMedia is CNN’s parent company, and employees from both organizations attended a presentation to WarnerMedia investors on Tuesday, according to Variety. The presentation opened with a video narrated by the famous actor.
The company's decision to hire Freeman for the gig comes after several CNN reporters wrote a 2018 article about eight women who alleged the 82-year-old actor harassed them or engaged in inappropriate conduct.
"It's disgusting," one CNN employee told Variety. "So many of us were scratching our heads in shock, wondering how something like this could even happen."
"Of all the millions of people they could have hired, why him?" another asked.
No CNN employees agreed to speak on the record out of fear of their employer punishing them.
"I did not create unsafe work environments. I did not assault women. I did not offer employment or advancement in exchange for sex. Any suggestion that I did so is completely false," Freeman said in a statement amid backlash from the allegations last year.

Morgan Freeman is one of CNN's tribe. Thus the rules don't apply to him. If an outsider was accused, he would naturally be guilty without trial. But not One Of Us.
It makes sense when you know what's going on.

Whilst I am pretty sure the allegations are not false, they are still just allegations.

Just a point, It seems that no matter what the issue - even the health of puppies - the normal attitude of a CNN person is "SHOCK". They must have huge cardiovascular health issues with CNN employees.

I dunno, 3dc, maybe they just have crap wiring in their offices.

Remember the Project Veritas undercover videos? They know, they are just constrained by the desire to remain employed to project certain attitudes.
retired Starship hopper on the left, 1/2 of second stage of Starship 1 test article on the right. By nightfall it was on the launch platform. Today, Halloween, the top half of the second stage might be moved. Then the wings and stuff. I am guessing a month or so of pressurization and fueling test (Hopper had about 4 months) then a test flight of the 2nd stage before the end of the year. A point of context is that the USAF considers this a virtual rocket and refused bids on it for USAF work. The USAF considers Vulcan and OmegA which are still mainly paper and no visible testing to be the Real rockets. Heh!
A late edit. Looks like the top half will not move today. See photo of the highway below:

First stage will not show up until the 4th or 5th test article. The second stage might even make it to single empty stage in orbit by that time. (If they can do major weight reduction by 4th or 5th test stage.) Note most rocket's second stages are about the size of the truck in the front of the photo and this is only 1/2 the second stage.
[Air Force Times] A wing tip gear door from a B-52 Stratofortress bomber fell off during a training mission over Brailes, England, Oct. 23 and landed in a local woman’s garden, the Air Force confirmed.
Fortunately, no one was hurt. The Gloucestershire Live website reported Tuesday that the woman, who wished to remain anonymous, called it a "miracle" that she was not injured and her house was not damaged when the part fell at about 5:30 p.m. that day.
The Air Force has now launched a safety investigation to find out what caused the mishap, said Master Sgt. Renae Pittman, a spokeswoman for U.S. Air Forces in Europe-Air Forces Africa.
The B-52 is part of the bomber task force, from the 2nd Bomb Wing at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana, which deployed to RAF Fairford in England Oct. 10.
The local Shipston on Stour Police Safer Neighbourhood Team posted an image of the part on their Facebook page.
[BREITBART] Residents of the Hong Kong district of Tuen Mun on Monday held a demonstration outside police headquarters to protest weird odors emanating from the facility and making people sick.
The odors were thought to be a product of tear gas testing. When the crowd of unhappy residents allegedly committed acts of vandalism, the police responded by spraying them with tear gas.
Coconuts Hong Kong quoted local media reports of residents and school students complaining of strange smells and unexplained illness, including irritated throats severe enough to require treatment by paramedics.
The protest began outside the police facility but moved to nearby Leung Wan Street about an hour later. Police officials said they investigated the reports but could not determine the source of the strange smell and found no evidence of tear gas testing in the area. They wrote a few social media posts urging the demonstrators to disperse, then fired tear gas after a report that a Molotov cocktail was thrown at a restaurant. "We think that kimchi the Norks gave us was bad"

What is important to remember here is that the Lebron James mansion is smokey and uncomfortable.
Does that mean Trump's account won't be allowed to post messages ? I don't understand. How does it work for the incumbent ?
[BBC] Twitter is to ban all political advertising worldwide, saying that the reach of such messages "should be earned, not bought". And when you can't earn it, or buy it... have it banned !
"While internet advertising is incredibly powerful and very effective for commercial advertisers, that power brings significant risks to politics," company CEO Jack Dorsey tweeted. Chiefly, that leaders we don't like should gain more followers and reach more voters.
Social media rival Facebook recently ruled out a ban on political ads.
News of the ban divided America's political camps for the 2020 election.
Brad Parscale, manager of President Donald Trump's re-election campaign, said the ban was "yet another attempt by the left to silence Trump and conservatives".
But Bill Russo, spokesman for the campaign to elect Democratic front-runner Joe Biden, said: "When faced with a choice between ad dollars and the integrity of our democracy, it is encouraging that, for once, revenue did not win out."
Reacting to the move, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg defended his company's policy.
"In a democracy, I don't think it's right for private companies to censor politicians or the news," he said during a conference call with journalists.
Twitter's ban will be enforced from 22 November, with full details released by 15 November.

People who are on Sh*ttah (Stewaht Vahney accent) maybe see it directly. I only see it when some website posts it. If trump wanted to SMS everyone who was interested, all you'd have to do is go sign up and no money would wind up in Jerkoff Dorksey's pocket.

Sorry TW, I was being obtuse. That is what those who log into Twitter should find - the 404 notice.
#8
Ah. Not obtuse, my dear, just slightly obscure. I’m pretty sure obtuse isn’t in your skill set.
There actually was a 404 when clocking on Dron66046’s More at the BBC link until I fixed it. I’m quite proud of the fact that sometimes my fixes actually work.
[BEA.gov] Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 1.9 percent in the third quarter of 2019 (table 1), according to the "advance" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the second quarter, real GDP increased 2.0 percent. comments: This is actually pretty darn good given the headwinds of regional labor shortages, trade issues (especially the one with the PRC) and various municipal and state self sabotage laws (e.g., the various minimum wage jumps, state restrictions on fracking). It probably means no more rate reductions by the Fed this quarter or even the next.
[The White House] The current economic expansion, which began roughly a decade ago, became the longest in U.S. history on July 1, 2019, beating the previous record that lasted from March 1991 through March 2001. As today’s advance Gross Domestic Product (GDP) release confirms, economic growth continued in the third quarter of 2019, beating market expectations and adding to the expansion’s record length. The release also confirms that the Trump Administration’s policies support sustained economic growth and lead to higher incomes for American families.
In its final projection before the 2016 election, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated that real GDP would grow at a 2.1 percent annual rate in the first 11 quarters of a new Administration. Instead, under President Trump, real GDP as of the third quarter has grown at a strong 2.6 percent annual rate since the election. As of the third quarter, real GDP is $230 billion‐or 1.2 percent‐higher than CBO’s projection (Figure 1). Furthermore, under President Obama’s expansion period, real GDP grew at only a 2.2 percent annual rate compared to the Trump Administration’s 2.6 percent rate.

It will keep expanding as long as production is shifted home. A $9700 billion trade deficit redirected back home will result in a generation long primary goods production increases in the USA.
When they are higher than the total tariffs on trade with foreign countries(including their internal tariffs), commerce will shift abroad and importers will get rich and Americans poor.
MILAN/PARIS (Reuters) - Fiat Chrysler (FCHA.MI) and Peugeot owner PSA (PEUP.PA) plan to join forces through a 50-50 share swap to create the world’s fourth-largest automaker, they said on Thursday, triggering a new wave of consolidation in the car industry.
Fiat Chrysler (FCA) and PSA said they aimed to reach a binding deal to create a $50 billion company domiciled in the Netherlands, with listings in Paris, Milan and New York and with PSA’s Carlos Tavares as CEO and FCA’s John Elkann as chairman.
The move comes less than five months after FCA abandoned merger talks with PSA’s French rival Renault (RENA.PA) and would give both companies the scale to help manage a global downturn in auto markets as well as costly investments in new technologies such as electric and self-driving vehicles.
FCA would get access to PSA’s more modern vehicle platforms, helping it to meet tough new emissions rules, while Europe-focused PSA would benefit from FCA’s profitable U.S. business.
[REDSTATE] Matthias Ajple clearly has some issues. Not to mention a problem with basic facts.
According to Newsweek, Ajple, 43, went up to a man, 67 year old Robert Youngblood, who was wearing a MAGA hat at a bar at the Hurricane Grill restaurant in Vero Beach, Florida.
According to what Youngblood told the police, Ajple said, "You should go back to Russia, you f*cking Communist!"
He then slapped the bill of Youngblood’s hat and spat on him.
Ajple left the restaurant but not before Youngblood was able to get his license plate number. The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office was called and others with Youngblood confirmed the attack to deputies. Video from the restaurant also showed what had occurred, according to the affidavit of the manager.
Police were able to track down Ajple and get a statement from both him and his wife.
His wife said as a joke she had told Ajple to tell Youngblood go back to Russia, but that she didn’t see what came next.
Ajple’s statement to the police is an example of utter delusion.
"I was just trying to protect you guys because I support law enforcement," he claimed. "Trump supporters are communist and racist." He seemed to brag about his actions, "I don’t even care that I’m going to jail, this is actually exciting, plus I have more time on this earth than he does anyway, he probably feels so good about himself."
He was arrested, charged with battery and then released on a $500 bond.

we keep hearing how things the right says incite violence and yet it always seems to be lefties that get incited.
There should be a swear jar in both houses of Congress, whenever one of their voters does something vile every party member has to drop in $100 bucks for the victim of said vile crime as a donation.
(2) Whenever a person is charged with committing an assault or aggravated assault or a battery or aggravated battery upon a person 65 years of age or older, regardless of whether he or she knows or has reason to know the age of the victim, the offense for which the person is charged shall be reclassified as follows:
(c) In the case of battery, from a misdemeanor of the first degree to a felony of the third degree.

Owners of Daddy Design, Ryan Steinhardt and Hunter Ecklund have joined forces with Zachary Van Doren (Founder of ZVD Media) and Matthias Ajple (Founder of AMR Networks) to launch SocialTools.FM.
Over 2 years ago, Daddy Design launched Social Toolbar as a WordPress plugin and since that time we saw huge demand for a persistent web toolbar that both seamlessly integrated with the look and feel of a website and that was lightweight and quick in terms of load times. There was nothing out there we felt did the job on both ends and so we decided to built it ourselves.
Since that time we saw a greater need among our clients for the development of a number of social and marketing web tools, that helped website owners build deeper connections between their website and their social channels, in terms of content, sharing and overall community. It was out of that greater need that we decided to launch SocialTools.FM, with our first product being a completely re-engineered update of Social Toolbar PRO.
MULTAN, Pakistan (AP) ‐ A massive fire caused by a cooking gas stove erupted Thursday on a train traveling in Pakistan’s eastern Punjab province, killing at least 71 passengers, officials said.
Flames roared through the train cars as the train approached the town of Liaquatpur in Punjab, they said, the latest tragedy to hit Pakistan’s dilapidated, poorly maintained and mismanaged rail system.
Survivors recounted horrific scenes of fellow passengers screaming as they jumped through the windows and off the train, flames billowing from the carriages.
"We could hear people crying and screaming for help," said Chaudhry Shujaat who had boarded the train just a few hours earlier with his wife and two children. "I thought we would die. The next car was on fire. We felt so helpless."
Deputy Commissioner Jamil Ahmed said the fire broke out when a gas stove exploded as breakfast was being prepared on board. He added that the death toll had risen steadily since the early morning.
Kaleem Ullah, an official with the district emergency services, says of the 43 people injured, 11 were still in critical condition.
Several of the injured had jumped off the train ‐ many to their deaths ‐ after the fire broke out and before it eventually screeched to a halt, said Ahmed.
[DAWN] A sessions court in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... sentenced film director Mansoor Mujahid and his friend Anab Hameed to life imprisonment for the murder of their friend Faisal Nabi.
The court also ordered both convicts to pay Rs200,000 each to Nabi's heirs as compensation. The court kept the case as dormant against a third accused Masooma Zainab Abidi ‐ who is absconding and was charged for abetting ‐ until her arrest or surrender. The verdict was announced on Tuesday evening.
Nabi was rubbed out in an apartment in Karachi's Defence Housing Authority in 2013. The prosecution said that Mujahid and his friends were consuming party drugs at Hameed's apartment when a heated argument broke out between the victim and the director, who shot Nabi.
The prosecution said that Mujahid, with common intention and consultation with Hameed and Abidi, had used an unlicensed weapon to shoot Nabi. The court was further told that after shooting the victim, both convicts and Abidi dumped Nabi's body ‐ after stabbing and burning it in order to hide the identify of the dear departed ‐ in the parking lot of the apartment building.
Mujahid and Hameed were indicted for Nabi's murder in 2014. The prosecution informed the court that during the investigation by an inquiry officer, Mujahid had confessed to shooting Nabi twice, while Hameed admitted that she had stabbed the victim and led the police to a place where the body, pistol, daggers, blood-stained pillow and bedcovers were found.
The prosecution said that during the investigation, Hameed had said that Nabi had assaulted her a few days before the murder and that she had written about the incident in her diary that was read by Mujahid.

The earliest ancestors of anatomically modern humans, Homo sapiens sapiens, emerged in southern Africa, according to a new study published this week in the journal Nature.
"It has been clear for some time that anatomically modern humans appeared in Africa roughly 200 thousand years ago," lead researcher Vanessa Hayes, a professor of human genomics at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Australia, said in a news release. "What has been long debated is the exact location of this emergence and subsequent dispersal of our earliest ancestors." And the first thing that this modern human said was "Hang aan ń tak"?

An argument in favour of culling the populations that wish to adhere to tribalism and what is protectively called 'ethnic culture'.
Were the story ever to be told how much misery and injustice is hidden behind 'gay festivals of colour and light', and 'ethnic indigenous customs', innocent looking practices around the world; they would be revealed for the satanism they are.

Well!
The Kalahari is right on the border of Botswana and South Africa. I would place heavy odds on the Bushmen of the Kalahari being the closest current link to the first modern Homo-sapien sapiens.
There are some rock paintings in that desert that have been estimated to be over 120,000 years old. When the Bushmen were asked what the represented they were able to describe the ritual/dance and preform it for the anthropologists! Not sure any other culture could do the same with even 2000 year old drawings.

The relationship between testosterone therapy and prostate cancer continues to challenge historic and current beliefs. A new cohort analysis revealed a ~33% reduction in prostate cancer incidence in men with increased testosterone use. The mechanisms underlying this protective effect are unclear, but these findings challenge current paradigms and warrant further investigation. Important news to old duffers like us

One of the treatments for PC is Lupron to suppress testosterone production. Lupron is used to chemically castrate the man with PC. The theory is that testosterone feeds prostate cancer. Not everyone buys this theory. Another theory is that PC is the result if imbalances between male and female hormones. The theory that seems to make the most sense is that PC is the result of certain inherited genetic defects. There are other theories as well. About 16% of males are likely to get PC. Treatment involves surgery, radiation and/or drugs/chemo. Gene therapy and immunotherapy, are recent areas of development.
