How We Came to Live in “Cursed” Times

Leave a comment

.

Three years ago, I interviewed the proprietor of the Twitter account Cursed Images, which had amassed more than eighty thousand followers in just a few months with its steady stream of creepy, uncanny photos: laughing mannequins, raw eggs cracked onto a bedsheet, a stretch limousine sinking into a creek bed, a man cutting up a salami with a CD. The account was mysterious; the proprietor would not speak on the phone or supply any information relating to location or age or gender. “The unsettling feeling people get while looking at these is pretty much how I feel most of the time,” the proprietor wrote in an e-mail. Cursed Images stopped tweeting on Halloween of that year, shortly after I published my blog post. (Other accounts have stepped in to replace it.) This served as a reminder of the cursedness of my own behavior: there’s no way of killing the fun of a phenomenon like analyzing it online.

Mallorca (Majorca) is one of Spain’s Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean. It’s known for beach resorts, sheltered coves, limestone mountains, and Roman and Moorish remains. Capital Palma has nightlife, the Moorish Almudaina royal palace, and 13th-century Santa María Cathedral. Stone-built villages include Pollença, with its art galleries and music festival, and hillside Fornalutx, surrounded by citrus plantations.

The Three Strength Exercises Everyone Should Do

Leave a comment

Lifting weights can often seem reserved for the fittest among us, those muscle-laden guys and gals pumping iron and getting swole on a daily basis. But the truth is, muscles aren’t just for impressing potential romantic interests—they’re how you get through every single day.

You may not want bulging biceps, but you probably do want to be able to lift your suitcase when you travel. And you may not care about setting a new squat record, but you’d probably like to get up from chairs without assistance in your old age. Both of those motions would be a lot easier—and less injury-prone—if you did some basic weight training. Some trainers like to call this “functional fitness,” meaning exercises in the gym that will translate to your everyday tasks. These sorts of workout routines are crucial to maintaining the muscles that will carry you into middle and old age. By age 70, the average person has lost about a quarter of the muscle mass they had at 30, and by 90, they’ll have lost half. You can’t stave off all of that by weight training, since muscle quality declines even if you maintain mass in old age, but studies suggest you can maintain more functionality (and even keep your bones stronger) with resistance training.

Maine is most famous for… Lobster and harvests the majority of the lobster in the United States. Maine has 3,478 miles of coastline – more than California (3,427), and over 5,000 miles of coast if you include all of the islands as well.

U.S. Route 1 (US 1) in the U.S. state of Maine is a major north–south state highway serving the eastern part of the state. It parallels the Atlantic Ocean from New Hampshire north through Portland, Brunswick, and Belfast to Calais, and then the St. Croix River and the rest of the Canada–US border via Houlton to Fort Kent. The portion along the ocean, known as the Coastal Route, provides a scenic alternate to Interstate 95 (I-95).

Ivanka Trump And Jared Kushner Raked In $36 Million While Serving In The White House

President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner earned at least $36.2 million in outside income last year while serving as senior White House advisers, according to their latest financial filings, released Friday.

That’s an apparent bump in a combined income of about $7 million over 2018′s reported $29 million, The Washington Post noted. Real estate and Trump Organization hotels accounted for much of the income.

The income is reported only within very broad ranges, so the first daughter and Kushner actually reported income ranging from $36.2 million to $57 million — after deducting liabilities.

They reported a combined income of at least $82 million in 2017.

How Jared Kushner’s Secret Testing Plan “Went Poof Into Thin Air”

Leave a comment

On March 31, three weeks after the World Health Organization designated the coronavirus outbreak a global pandemic, a DHL truck rattled up to the gray stone embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Washington, D.C., delivering precious cargo: 1 million Chinese-made diagnostic tests for COVID-19, ordered at the behest of the Trump administration.

Normally, federal government purchases come with detailed contracts, replete with acronyms and identifying codes. They require sign-off from an authorized contract officer and are typically made public in a U.S. government procurement database, under a system intended as a hedge against waste, fraud, and abuse.

This purchase did not appear in any government database. Nor was there any contract officer involved. Instead, it was documented in an invoice obtained by Vanity Fair, from a company, Cogna Technology Solutions (its own name misspelled as “Tecnology” on the bill), which noted a total order of 3.5 million tests for an amount owed of $52 million. The “client name” simply noted “WH.”

Kushner’s shock doctrine plan to kill Social Security: Go hungry today or work until you die

The Republican deficit peacockery over saving American lives and livelihoods is reaching new levels of absurdity. Absurdity and cruelty, which is nothing new, but the degree to which they will use any excuse to destroy Social Security and Medicare is truly surreal. The Washington Post explored how far down the rabbit hole some of them are exploring by detailing the “Eagle Plan.”

This is just a nutso. It’s a 29-page memo explaining how to steal from Social Security to give people $10,000 now, and it’s written by—get this—by Paul Touw, chief strategy officer to U.S. State Department undersecretary Keith Krach. Yes, the State Department—which doesn’t make domestic policy. But there’s this: “Krach is close to Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, and a senior adviser. Kushner and Krach served together on the presidential delegation to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in January.” So of course the White House Council of Economic Advisers is reviewing it, because it’s coming from Prince Jared. Never mind that it’s insane.

The identities of Orange County’s oldest ‘Jane Doe’ murder victim and her killer are now known thanks to DNA, officials say.

She was known as “Jane Doe” for 52 years. Now, Anita Louise Piteau of Augusta, Maine, is known to be the victim of Huntington Beach’s longest-running cold case. Her killer, Johnny Chrisco, was also identified through familial DNA, according to the Huntington Beach Police Department.

Anita left her home to come to Hollywood, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office. She wanted to see where movies were made, and kept in touch with her family by mail. “She had every intention of returning home,” Kimberly Edds of the OCDA’s office told Patch. Her last correspondence was in February of 1968.

They never heard from her again.
