[PAGESIX] Lady Gaga took a tumble off the stage Thursday night during a performance in Las Vegas.
Videos from the show at Park MGM resort captured the “Bad Romance” songstress plummeting into the crowd after leaping into the arms of a fan she’d invited on stage.
Other fans rushed to help her up — and soon Gaga, 33, continued performing like nothing had happened, getting behind the piano to play “Million Reasons.”
“If anybody on the internet is mean to you tomorrow about this then I’m going to be very upset with each and every one of them,” she told the fan who took the plunge with her in a video taken by another concertgoer.

Remember that photo of Miley and her father taken with them both nude. It has long been suspected the guy was sexually abusing her and pimping her out to Disney executives, and her mother was also apparently OK with it. She displays all the signs of sexual abuse. Not much you can do for a girl once she turns feral. If you kick her she's liable to follow you home.

To be fair, good for her. Perhaps a Counter-Cancel-Generation convert? At the least protecting her clientele.
Slightly off topic, Dave Chapelle got a number of kudos for his recent stand-up. Check out Dana Carvey as well. This is coming from someone who can type without looking, with kids, who also think it is magical I can type without looking.

[Jpost] The world's first Ebola vaccine was approved by Europe ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... an drugs regulators on Friday in a move hailed by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a "triumph for public health" that would save many lives.
The vaccine, developed by U.S. drugmaker Merck & Co, is already being used under emergency guidelines to try to protect people against the spread of a deadly Ebola outbreak in Democratic Republic of the Congo ...formerly the Congo Free State, Belgian Congo, Zaire, and who knows what else, not to be confused with the Brazzaville Congo aka Republic of Congo, which is much smaller and much more (for Africa) stable. DRC gave the world Patrice Lumumba and Joseph Mobutu, followed by years of tedious civil war. Its principle industry seems to be the production of corpses. With a population of about 74 million it has lots of raw material... It is also being reviewed under a fast-track system by regulators in the United States.
"This vaccine has already saved many lives in the current Ebola outbreak, and the decision by European regulator will help it to eventually save many more," the WHO's director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a statement.
The Congo Ebola outbreak has killed more than 2,100 people since the middle of last year. It is the second largest Ebola outbreak in history, after a 2013-16 epidemic in West Africa that killed more than 11,300.
The Merck vaccine, which the company has now brand-named Ervebo, is likely to get a full marketing license from the European Commission within a few weeks.
Merck said in a statement its priority now was to get regulatory approval of its Ervebo manufacturing site in Germany so that licensed supply of the vaccine "can be used to support global public health preparedness."
Health authorities in Kinshasa said last week they planned to introduce an experimental second Ebola vaccine, developed by drugmaker Johnson & Johnson, in November in the country's eastern provinces.
Ebola virus causes haemorrhagic fever and spreads from person to person through direct contact with body fluids. It kills around half of those it infects.
There are currently no licensed treatments for the deadly infection, but scientists said in August they were a step closer to being able to cure it after two experimental drugs showed survival rates of as much as 90% in a clinical trial in Congo.
[AFRICANEWS] Algerian member of parliament, Baha Eddine Tliba has been detained. The businessman was remanded in jug on Thursday over money laundering and secretly financing political parties.
According to the official APS news agency, Tliba is facing prosecution for illegally financing the electoral campaign of former President Abdelaziz Bouteflika ...10th president-for-life of Algeria. He was elected in 1999 and served on his third or four terms. When he announced for the fifth, or maybe it was the sixth, visibly doddering, a grateful nation rose up in its wrath and threw him out... Baha Eddine Tliba, a member of the former president’s National Liberation Front ...the Turkic paramilitaries intended to replace with their native jihadi ferocity all the highly trained Turkish soldiers Sultan Erdogan I the much beloved has jailed in the last few years for not worshipping the ground he walks upon. The Uighurs and so forth who did not join Al Nusra or ISIS seem to have ended up here... party, had his parliamentary immunity lifted on September 25 at the request of the Justice Minister.
He is one of the last victims of an Algerian judicial hunt for powerful businessmen close to Bouteflika since his resignation in April.
Most of them are suspected of having taken advantage of their ties with the former president or his entourage to obtain benefits or public contracts.
[AFRICANEWS] The government of South Africa has apologized for the power cuts that have affected the country for two days, which is threatening the fragile economy of the continent’s leading industrial power.
For a while now power cuts have been recurrent as many users record damages at homes and in businesses.
"We must, on behalf of the government, apologize to all businesses, to students who cannot take their exams, for the inconvenience this causes. We are studying the problems affecting Eskom and we want to assure South Africans that we will return to a normal situation," South African Vice President David Mabuza told Parliament .
Public electricity giant Eskom, which supplies 95% of the electricity produced in South Africa, took a nose dive when the company in June 2019 announced a debt of more than 1 billion dollars, hitting record net losses. Eskom cited breakdowns in their plants as the cause of these cuts and promised a return to normality soon.
The government of President Cyril Ramaphosa announced in July that it will device a rescue plan to support the power supplier.
[BBC] A US fast-food chain will cease trading at its first UK outlet amid a row over donations to anti-LGBT groups.
Gay rights campaigners called for a boycott of Chick-fil-A, which opened its first branch at The Oracle shopping centre in Reading on 10 October.
A spokeswoman for the centre said "the right thing to do" was to not extend the restaurant's lease beyond the "six-month pilot period".
Chick-fil-A said its donations were purely focused on youth and education.
The family-owned company, founded in Atlanta in 1967, is one of the biggest fast-food chains in the USA and boasts about 2,400 outlets across North America. 3rd most popular fast food chain in the US. Suck it, LGBT
According to US news website Think Progress, in 2017 the Chick-fil-A Foundation donated millions of dollars to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, the Paul Anderson Youth Home and the Salvation Army.
Campaigners from LGBT organisation, Reading Pride, said all three organisations have a reputation of being hostile to LGBT rights.
In 2012, the company's chairman sparked a US boycott when he said he opposed gay marriage.
Campaign continues. Could spark a Baptist invasion. Send it back, we'll stick to carrots and cucumber sammies.

Fellow in the graphic wearing the Collar of Esses might have been delighted to have had a few Chick-Fil-A's to hand out back in 1943. How things, they have changed.

..well, when they allowed the intolerant authoritarians to take power, sort of undermined the sacrifice of our parents' generation.
We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender

What I gather from the article, is Chick-Fil-A has a 6 month test lease from The Oracle.
I'd guess these insufferable hateful lgtgheqhnjc activists were generally disrupting the entire shopping experience at The Oracle; not just Chick-Fil-A.
Chick-Fil-A will continue to operate until the lease expires. The lgbhdkjn asses pledge to continue their protests until that time - I guess as a warning to others and because they are hateful, in-compassionate bottle suckers. Seriously, they win, and its months of end-zone dances, tells me all I need to know. Looking forward to Tired Of Your Shit Revolution.
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Britannia will still leave the Europe ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... an Union on October 31 as scheduled if the latest Brexit deal is voted down by politicians, Prime Minister Boris Johnson ...pro-Brexit British prime minister, succeeding no-Brexit Theresa May. BoJo is noted as much for his sparkling personality and his hair as for his Conservative policies.... said on Friday.
"We will leave the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... on October 31st," Johnson told the BBC television in an interview on the eve of a parliamentary vote on his agreement with the EU.
Johnson said there was "no better outcome" than his Brexit deal, as MPs prepared for a knife-edge vote on the terms of Britannia’s departure from the EU.
"There is no better outcome than the one I’m advocating tomorrow (Saturday)," he told BBC, calling it a "fantastic deal for all of the UK."

Not likely.
Boris will need to ask for an extension.
He can still get his Brexit legislation through Parliament but if he doesn't, the EU will certainly grant an extension, maybe as late as October 31.
No deal is pretty much off the table now. It will either be deal or extension, and an extension will probably mean elections and/or second referendum.
But the UK will NOT leave the EU if the deal is voted down on October 31.

What's wrong about asking the people to decide on this question: Do you want the UK to leave on the proposed terms or stay within the EU?
o Yes, Leave
o No, Remain

An astute man would see that as :
O You think you could leave on your terms ? After ye gave up yer sovrinty ? Spend another few years selecting the person Brussels will deal with. Dissolve your parliament again and again.
O Noice experiment eh, nonce ? Status Quo for your trouble.
There is no exit. Knew that from the start. If it happens, the EU... nope, it just can't be allowed by the politicians, the civil servants, the multinational corporations.
I'd be really very surprised if brexit actually happened.

Had the question already, Britain voted to leave the EUSSR.
Maybe when Britain votes to Leave they can "ask" a third time "are you sure you're sure?"
I think MPs are going to find out if they decide to ignore the rules of democracy then the people they decided they're "more equal" than will act too.
[The Federalist] DALLAS, Texas ‐ It’s only fitting that the first sentence out of President Trump’s mouth at his Dallas, Texas rally on Thursday night was about the luxury fashion brand Louis Vuitton.
"I am thrilled to be here, deep in the heart of Texas, where we just opened a beautiful, new Louis Vuitton plant," Trump said from the American Airlines Center podium.
Wealthy, beautiful women with designer purses is in fact what many Texans think of when they think of Dallas. That and the nutty, sprawling highway interchanges. As one "Keep America Great Rally" attendee, Dan told me, "The difference between Dallas and Fort Worth is that in Dallas they call fish ’sushi’ and in Fort Worth they call it ’bait.’"
Despite its reputation for flash, Dallas is not an elite bubble of a city, which was reflected in the 20,000 people from a variety of ethnicities, economic classes, and age groups that traveled to see the president this week. Dozens of supporters began lining up outside the venue on Tuesday, and waited in line more than 50 hours to get in. Thousands more watched outside the arena.
I spoke to people who traveled for hours across the state, even out of state, from Austin, Canton, Colorado, and Las Vegas. They were from all over the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, from the big suburbs, the small communities, and the Southern Methodist University campus a few miles away. Like many Texas cities, Dallas may be blue, but those huge highways make it extremely accessible to a lot of red. Its neighboring county, Tarrant County, hasn’t voted for a Democrat since Lyndon Johnson won his home state in 1964.
[CNSNEWS] Despite the public appeals of human rights ...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions... advocates and behind-the-scenes lobbying, U.N. member-states on Thursday elected Venezuela ...a country in Central America that sits on an enormous pool of oil. Formerly the most prospereous country in the region, it became infested with Commies sniffing almost unlimited wealth. It turned out the wealth wasn't unlimited, the economy collapsed under the clownish Hugo Chavez, the murder rate exceeds places like Honduras and El Salvador, and a significant proportion of the populace as refugeed to Colombia and points south... onto the world’s body’s Human Rights Council, handing the socialist Maduro regime more votes than Costa Rica, a stable liberal democracy.
Until the small Central American country declared its candidacy just weeks ago, Venezuela had been virtually assured a seat on the Geneva-based HRC, since it was one of two candidates running for two seats earmarked for the Latin America and the Caribbean group.
But Costa Rica’s candidacy, while turning the "closed slate" election into a competitive race ‐ with three countries running for two vacant seats ‐ failed to win over sufficient member-states.
Voting by secret ballot in New York, 105 members of the U.N. General Assembly threw their support behind the Maduro regime. Costa Rica received 96 votes. (Brazil, the region’s third candidate, won 153 votes.)
Amid a deep political and humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, the U.S. and 54 other countries no longer recognize Nicolás Maduro’s regime as the legitimate government. They support the head of the National Assembly, Juan Guaidó ...Venezuelan politician, a member of the social-democratic Popular Will party, and serves as a federal deputy to the National Assembly representing the state of Vargas. In 2019 he was appointed by the Popular Will party to become the president of the National Assembly, after which he declared he was acting president of the country, challenging Nicolás Maduro's presidency and starting the 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis.... , as interim president in accordance with the constitution, pending new elections.
But Maduro retains strong support in the bloc of developing nations known as the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), whose 120 members comprise a majority in the General Assembly.

"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatownthe UN."
The seats on various UN bodies are assigned to various regions and the nations jealously guard their graft *ahem* rights to those seats. They rotate the seat to share the pillaging rights -- it has nothing to do with the moral stance of the country involved.
[Jpost] A 30-year old resident of the town of Ofakim stormed into a cop shoppe on Friday and assaulted an officer with a sharpened stick, stabbing the man in his stomach.
The other officers present attempted to arrest him, at this point the man pulled out a large knife and attempted to stab them as well. He was quickly subdued, when the officers searched him they found he was carrying a drug sold under the brand name ’Nice Guy.’
Nice Guy is a designer drug that had been made illegal in Israel.
Designer drugs are designed to mimic the effects of illegal drugs using chemical variations that technically make them into a different substance, and ergo legal.
Nice Guy is sold in 24-hour convenient stores, usually by young people, who purchase the drug with strong alcohol to be consumed before a night of dancing or partying.
Nice Guy is made from a chemical variant of Meth, meaning it functions as a stimulant. The substance is highly addictive and as it is targeted at youth and sold in normative stores, is seen as dangerous.
Nice Guy is not the only drug Israelis often mistake for a permissible recreational substance, Khat, which is a stimulant containing the alkaloid cathinone, is also used by some in the Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... i Jewish community.
On Thursday, it was reported that dozens of Israelis were arrested outside the country for smuggling it.
Just what the world needs: even more Arabs getting high on something that makes them stupid and violent.
[BBC] Scientists in the Netherlands say they are within 10 years of developing an artificial womb that could save the lives of premature babies. Premature birth, before 37 weeks, is globally the biggest cause of death among newborns. But, the development also raises ethical questions about the future of baby making. We meet Lisa Mandemaker, the designer working with the Maxima Medical Centre to create a prototype.
[AAWSAT] Only hours after taking a decision to impose a charge of 20 cents per day for calls via voice over Internet protocol (VoIP), the Lebanese government backed down from the plans and said no additional taxes should be introduced in the 2020 state budget.
The reversal came after angry people erupted into the streets of Beirut, the suburbs and provinces and they cut off several roads across the country with burning tires.
Following a cabinet session held on Thursday, Information Minister Jamal Jarrah said a decision was taken a day earlier to impose the 20 cents based on a proposal from the Minister of Communications, Mohammed Choucair.
The government says that such a decision would generate around $200 million in revenues.
On news about the government decision, protests spread across the country to the suburbs and provinces, prompting several deputies to change their position and say they were against the levy. Choucair told local television on Thursday evening that Prime Minister Saad Hariri ...Second son of Rafik Hariri, the Leb PM who was assassinated in 2005. He has was prime minister in his own right from 2009 through early 2011. He was born in Riyadh to an Iraqi mother and graduated from Georgetown University. He managed his father's business interests in Riyadh until his father's assassination. When his father died he inherited a fortune of some $4.1 billion, which won't do him much good if Hizbullah has him bumped off, too.... ordered him to cancel any charges on voice calls.
Finance Minister Ali Hassan Khalil, took to Twitter in the evening to explain that the 2020 state budget does not include any taxes and that the fee on WhatsApp calls has no relation to the budget.

[Variety] Quentin Tarantino will not recut "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" to placate Chinese censors, Variety has confirmed. The decision likely means that the Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt buddy dramedy and ode to late sixties Tinseltown won’t be making an appearance in China ‐ at least in non-pirated form.
