For almost a month Leonardo Cortinas, the retired Marine was practicing for his 15-year-old daughter, Jasmine’s, birthday. They spent almost a month planning the surprise. Although the dance starts slow and chill very quickly it transforms to something that shocked the guests. This mixture of chill-hip-hop medley lasting almost five minutes transcends all music genres. Finaly, the Retired Marine seems to lost way and is finally replaced by another guest.
After watching the result, you’ll know for a fact that this father truly loves his daughter…and is darn proud of it!

You have to admit that this is one of the most sweet-est, heart-warming, father-daughter dances!
Adam West, star of the popular and campy 1960s “Batman” TV show, died Friday night after “a short but brave battle with leukemia,” his family said in a statement. He was 88.
In a signature role, West played Bruce Wayne and his alter ego, the crime-fighting, costumed Batman, a popular comics character who came to life on the ABC-TV series. The show, with a catchy — some might say aggravating — theme song, earned a cult following.
.
The series lasted three seasons and enjoyed a long afterlife in syndication.
West later supplied the voice of Mayor Adam West, the oddball leader of Quahog, Rhode Island, on the animated series “Family Guy.”
When death comes to Cleveland, it’s far more likely to be packing a needle than a gun.
Just since June 1, there have been 41 reported drug fatalities in the city and surrounding suburbs, the Cuyahoga Medical Examiner confirmed Friday.
By contrast, there have been 42 homicides in Cleveland all of this year — 38 of them by gunfire.
And with 248 heroin/fentanyl overdoses now on the books for 2017, the county — including Cleveland — is easily on pace to eclipse last year’s total death toll of 312 for those kinds of overdoses, officials reported.

It’s no secret the tech industry is largely white and male. Anyone who doesn’t “fit the mold” faces challenges, from recruitment to the hiring process and throughout their careers. It’s no wonder Silicon Valley has an atrocious attrition rate.
What people seldom talk about is how discrimination begins before applicants even get through the door. In some cases, job listings are peppered with exclusionary language that might not be clear at first glance.
If being labeled a “hacker” won’t sink your future job prospects, expect to see some “dope” job listings with more details on the “hustle” than the health care. If you get hired, expect to “get crunk” once a month (or risk being a poor “culture fit”).
In 2010 we had “icing.” Then came “planking.” Then, of course, the infamous ice bucket challenge. If Snapchat and Instagram are any indication, this summer’s hottest viral prank could be the “lava challenge.”
It’s a simple game. A friend shouts “the floor is lava!” and you have exactly 5 seconds to get to higher ground. This could mean climbing a store shelf, hopping on a fire hydrant or jumping on the counter of a fast-food restaurant.
The game itself has been around on schoolyards for years — you probably remember it from your childhood — but a pair of friends named Kevin Freshwater and Jahannah James helped it reach viral new heights.
CNN has not renewed show host Reza Aslan’s program a week after the host was forced to apologize for calling President Donald Trump “a piece of shit” for Trump’s response to a suicide bombing at a concert in Manchester.
“CNN has decided to not move forward with production on the acquired series Believer With Reza Aslan (season two),” a CNN spokesperson said in a statement. “We wish Reza and his production team all the best.”
The news comes a week after Aslan had to apologize for calling Trump a “piece of shit” in a tweet. The tweet, which has since been deleted, read:
“This piece of shit is a not just an embarrassment to America and a stain on the presidency. He’s an embarrassment to humankind.”
This is just amazing. Not only is it huge, the proportions are correct. It took someone a lot of time to map it out and even more to plant it. I don’t know who they are, but thank you for what you have done. With things which are currently going on in our country, it is great to see the American Spirit is still alive.
THE ONLY FLAG THAT DOESN’T FLY
Between the fields where the flag is planted, there are nine-plus miles of flower fields that go all the way to the ocean. The flowers are grown by seed companies. It’s a beautiful place, close to Vandenberg AFB.
.
Check out the dimensions of the flag. The floral flag is 740 feet long and 390 feet wide and maintains the proper flag dimensions, as described in executive order #10834.
.
This flag is 6.65 acres and is the first floral flag to be planted with five pointed stars, comprised of white larkspur. Each star is 24 feet in diameter, each stripe is 30 feet wide.
.
This flag is estimated to contain more than 400,000 larkspur plants with four-to-five flower stems each, for a total of more than two million flowers.
It’s for our soldiers.

In the world, human beings are facing various problems. People who are full of greed, anger, and ignorance are seen to be fighting with each other in words and deeds. As the fighting continues, various problems such as civil wars, wars of aggression, and wars of aggression are occurring. As world peace is being destroyed, humans are facing unbearable problems. Innocent children and women are not getting the rights they deserve and deserve. I can't think of one thing every time. What is it? The United Nations. If we look at the responsibilities and duties of the United Nations, I think it is not suitable for solving the problems that are happening in the world today. In fact, the United Nations and the World Security Council, such an organization must rule the world, must be able to give orders, and must have various ways to obey orders. There must be no organization that can influence more than that organization. There should be experts from each country. They can even dominate the superpowers like the US, China, and Britain. Only then will global peace be achieved quickly. Now, if a country with power develops more militarily, economically, or socially than its own country, then powerful countries will jealously seek out enemies and wage war. Or they will attack with fighter jets. In this, innocent people are losing their lives. No one understands the value of a life. You should think about how to achieve global peace by controlling these. If the US continues to be the permanent president of the UN, world peace will never be achieved. If you think carefully, no one sees that they are working for the common good, but for their own benefit, for the benefit of their own country. The permanent president of the UN and the Security Council has rejected this, As a young Rohingya, I have come to realize that only by electing the president and secretary from among the countries in the world through a secret ballot system and governing the world fairly can we achieve global peace. The United Nations and the Security Council are organizations in which any country must govern, give orders, and make them obey their orders. For example, only when a defendant is tried in court can we hold the leaders of the countries in check and control them, can we achieve global peace smoothly. Otherwise, it will not be easy for powerful countries to use various excuses to end this war every year, every year, for the benefit of themselves and their countries. No country's leaders pay any attention to the words of the United Nations and the Security Council. If we look at it in practice, look at the Rohingya issue. Myanmar is a small country. Even that country has been under siege for 8 years. What action can be taken? Why is the UN and the Security Council Powerless? Without such Power, how can the organization bring about global peace? Everyone should think about it. Whether there is a veto or a strong one, all countries in the world can only achieve global peace if they are subject to the UN and the Security Council. Seek peace in the quiet embrace of nature. Peace is an indispensable need of the human race. It is not as if one person can kill another person, and it is as if one country can attack another country, but instead of trying to build peace, we must try to destroy the peace now, and the world is getting hotter and is on the verge of collapse. I especially appeal to all the world experts to urgently try to bring about peace in all parts of the world. Mr, Noor Muhamed Arkhan Rohingya Youth Myanmar
