And it should be mentioned that there were religious motivations behind this as was reported by other reliable news sources. I'll let the readers guess the religion if JT doesn't want to mention it.

So the deceased and critically ill were all related to her estranged husband yet she and her children were unharmed. This can't be too difficult for the police to wrap up.

Worked closely with our Aussie allies during my military career - they're tough soldiers and great people...

I out-shot some, out-ran others, but never won a drinking contest...

Hope everyone returns home safe...."

Thank you for this post and your service sir. We know our allies always have our backs as we have yours, mate.

And where can we watch this in Japan?

It's on the streaming service, Unext. They've always been months behind the actual release date. They're still only up to season 3 so we'll probably have to wait for a while yet sadly.

On a lighter note, I'm so happy to see attitudes towards same-sex marriage becoming more positive. Progress in a still, very conservative country.

And I'll happily apologize for calling it an attention-seeking stunt if someone can confirm she allows parents at her company to bring their babies to work whenever they want.

Can anyone confirm this is the case at Genequest Inc?

This is all great, but how is it ‘empowering’? The word has just become a media buzzword.

Exactly. Women who sadly can't afford childcare, generally don't have jobs that allow them to take children to work. Attention-seeking token gestures by privileged individuals won't change a thing sadly. But hey, if likes on her social media makes her feel better about herself...

Wow, look at that face. Someone is trying to make a statement rather than doing this out of necessity. She could easily afford childcare. Jacinda Ardern fan girl much?

Given his track record, maybe posing with a clenched fist wasn't the best idea. Is it his trademark?

Posted in: Trevor Bauer signs with Yokohama BayStars See in context

"Playing in the NPB has always been a dream of mine and I can't think of a better organization to do it with," Bauer said in a statement Monday, referring to Nippon Professional Baseball.

Yeah right. It's been his dream since his agent told him no other MLB team was interested in having a player with his off-field history.

Sure, it starts on WOWOW on April 24 or if you can't wait, get yourself a VPN and subscribe to HBO Max.
