Ben Stiller said he hoped being open about his own experiences would lead to greater awareness of prostate cancer’s symptoms. He also said he now regularly urged younger people to be checked for the illness.
Like the Gulf stream, or a young Republican who doesn’t wear beige chinos, we know Mike Pence and Tim Kaine exist – we just don’t really see them. Tonight's vice-presidential debate is their chance to show us all what we’ve been missing.
The heart of this garbage patch floating in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii is estimated at 386,000 square miles. Its periphery is believed to span more than 1.3 million square miles.
Some experts said this represents the first known case of a US internet company agreeing to a spy agency’s demand by searching all arriving messages.
"A deeply troubling truth about the death penalty is that it is often handed down not to people who commit the worst crimes, but on those assigned the worst lawyer to represent them."
On this ticket, Governor Mike Pence is the GOP’s steady pair of hands compared with the politically inexperienced Donald J. Trump, but the impact of the religious freedom battle lingers, and his decades of anti-LGBT attitudes that preceded it remain.
Researchers showed 135 educators videos of children in a classroom setting. Each had a black boy and girl, and a white boy and girl.
While the teachers were asked to detect “challenging behavior”, no such behavior existed in any of the videos. But when asked which children required the most attention, 42% of the teachers identified the black boy.
Known in her home country as the Iraqi Maya Angelou, poet Faleeha Hassan now lives as a refugee within a deep pocket of Trump supporters in south New Jersey. Many of her new neighbors, she says, see her headscarf and assume she is a terrorist.
"You were held to a higher standard, with more gratuitous obstructionism than any president in history, and you didn’t just meet that standard – you transcended it. You chuckled through racist death threats and 'terrorist fist jabs' and secret-Kenyan-Muslim-lizard-people-Satan’s-gay-butt-priest bloviations long after any average person would have thrown a chair through the window of a Jamba Juice and take to the wilds until death."
Duane Buck was convicted of a double murder in 1997, to which there was no dispute of the verdict. It's the words of the prosecutor who pushed for the death penalty instead of life in prison that now has his case in front of the supreme court.
"Depression and anxiety from hormonal contraceptives may not be the experience of every woman, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the experience of your friend, your daughter or your partner, and of many women out there, who, in reading about this could have their lives changed for the better."
"This is just a suggestion, but the next time you meet a woman wearing a headscarf, you might say Salaam or Good Day. She may be an Iraqi poet who would like to tell you how great her children are doing in their new school."
The #VPDebate excitement is palpable.
And to think, instead of additional funding for veterans affairs hospitals or state transit systems, we got Trump University and the Trump Taj Mahal.
"I’m still very interested in testifying against the self-promotion obsessively imposed by the media. This demand for self-promotion diminishes the actual work of art, whatever that art may be."

- My View : Good News comes once in a while....! -------------------- ...Jagdish Kinjalk -------------------- If we take an account of one week, we find that bad news visits us many times , but Good news comes once in a while. Why there is so much difference in frequency...?Generally we read the column, " Today's Fate " in the News Papers daily in the morning. We find that negative happenings take place frequently, but positive happenings rarely. In my view, there is nothing negative and positive in our day to day life.This is our mental state that we divide " Happenings " into Good and Bad. Some times, this also happens that Happenings, which we consider Bad, results in Good and vice-verse. We are in practice to think always in our favor. We should strengthen our Thinking. What so ever will happen, will happen as per our fate. Why to be worry day to day...? Here I remember the saying of Great Saint and Great Poet Mahatma Tulsidas, who has written, " Hueye hai soey jo Ram rachi rakha..." It means, every moment is scheduled in the life of men and women by the God..." Why should we worry for future..? If we stick on this saying with full confidence, we can not be worry in day to day life...No Good or Bad News will effect our living.. Let us try to do so....! @ Jagdish Kinjalk.
