RE: News of the World - DerVVulfman - 01-30-2020 Cause, effect: NYPD commish explains new no-bail laws lead to more crime https://nypost.com/2020/01/27/cause-effect-nypd-commish-explains-new-no-bail-laws-lead-to-more-crime/ Over 60% increase in car thefts since this law started this year? A guy robbed two more banks after this farce let him out after four previous robberies? And yet, liberals hailed the removal of setting bail as a victory? RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-30-2020 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51305526 170 deceases officially admitted by the Chinese government 7,711 confirmed cases of infected people Is that how China is supposed to contain it!? O_o? BBC Wrote:Two flights to Japan have already landed at Tokyo's Haneda airport and the passengers are being screened at medical institutions. So far, three have tested positive for the virus, Japanese media report.Dunno what to say, it's not as positive as it was supposed to be... British and Korean airplanes didn't take off... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-51293327 So the Syrian government might seem to be consolidating its power after all... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-51293943 I dunno why Trump would ever expect Palestinians to accept any offer he made. O_O UK: To be Huawei or not to be!? Happy with a sweat https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51263799 At least they realize USA insists on not letting Chinese technology companies get a free pass to UK. Does it mean James Bond would no longer get indirect assistance of CIA / NSA if Huawei success in entering that market? Later on Prime Minister Johnson announced they'd allow Huawei to partake in their 5G venture but they wouldn't exceed a coverage of 35% of the British market and they'd stay off of sensitive areas and the network core. Is that really enough? They do realize Chinese technological companies are risky by nature. https://www.crhoy.com/mundo/suben-a-17-los-muertos-por-explosion-de-camion-con-gas-en-lima/ And a gas truck exploded in Lima, Peru... https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/pln-quiere-que-ventura-rinda-cuentas-pese-a-que-dejara-cancilleria/ Even if the Costa Rican chancellor and vice chancellor resigned, PLN, a social democrat party, demands the former chancellor's presence in an audience where they'd discuss his messy legacy in diplomacy. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-51298128 BBC Wrote:The secretary-general of the Commonwealth, Baroness Scotland, has been strongly criticised by internal auditors for awarding a lucrative consultancy contract to a company run by a personal friend. And the UK, specifically Baroness Scotland of Asthal, couldn't stay out of controversy, could they? RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-31-2020 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-51318246 That news was a must indeed for many people might have been expecting that announcement for days. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-health-latest-factbox/factbox-latest-on-the-coronavirus-spreading-in-china-and-beyond-idUSKBN1ZT0C4?il=0 Reuters Wrote:A coronavirus outbreak that began in Wuhan, the capital of China’s central province of Hubei, has spread to more than 9,320 people globally, surpassing the total from the 2002-2003 SARS epidemic. The new virus has killed 212 people.Is it gonna stop any time soon!? There are 5 cases confirmed in Germany and 6 in the US... Later on they were in need of inflating numbers even more! There are over 9.600 confirmed cases and 213 people have passed away. https://metro.co.uk/2020/01/30/italy-confirms-first-two-cases-coronavirus-passengers-allowed-off-cruise-12156547/ https://roma.repubblica.it/cronaca/2020/01/30/news/coronavirus_turisti_cinesi-247194041/ Metro Wrote:Italy is the fourth European country, after France, Finland and Germany, to have confirmed cases. https://www.linuxexperten.com/news/mozilla-begins-monetizing-thunderbird So Thunderbird will stop belonging to the Mozilla Foundation and will be part of MZLA list of products!?

They suspect some government sponsored the professional hackers. So far they ignore how dangerous they might have become after accessing their data while leaving no trace behind... https://www.linuxexperten.com/news/german-proof-shows-huaweis-involvement-chinese-intelligence Huawei is spying on everybody on behalf of the Chinese government! Of course, Huawei denies it. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-51314058 Nope, Mexico once again demonstrated they can't keep inmates locked in at all. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-tesla-solarcity-lawsuit/tesla-directors-settle-isolating-musk-as-solarcity-trial-looms-idUSKBN1ZT2HF It's a bad day to be Elon Musk for sure. O_O https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-51319198 Is it true that just another armed group is behind this atrocity that took place in Nicaragua? Or could they be supported by Ortega? https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/29/un-council-members-point-fingers-over-syria-aid-cr/ So Britain and the United States accused Russia and China of cutting away at a lifeline for millions of Syrians. China, in turn, said its critics were politicizing aid. RE: News of the World - kyonides - 02-01-2020 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51335011 Nigeria, Eritrea, Sudan, Tanzania, Kyrgyzstan and Myanmar gotta know that it might get more complicated to travel to USA from now on. https://www.bbc.com/news/health-51337400 Did you meet those two people now infected with coronavirus? You better tell your local health authorities about it! https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-51333314 EU and UK got divorced! https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-01-31/sweden-reports-first-case-of-confirmed-coronavirus https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/finland/finland-news/domestic/17278-lapland-hospital-district-ups-estimate-of-people-exposed-to-coronavirus-to-24.html Yes, Sweden and Finland got infected! Fine! They only reported a single case each. https://www.ft.com/content/96bd61c2-226f-31f4-99fa-02cb85c42bf2 Financial Times Wrote:Coronavirus latest: China says 259 dead, 11,791 cases confirmedhttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/31/world/asia/coronavirus-china.html#link-6c3fcf70 Do you still need any further explanation? Countries and territories that have confirmed cases: Asia
Others
Europe and Former Soviet Union
This means the current coronavirus has reached the same number of countries / territories as SARS. O_O Cases recorded in Thailand, Taiwan, Germany, Vietnam, Japan, France and the United States involved patients who had not been to China. https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/gobierno-confirma-a-rodolfo-solano-como-nuevo-canciller/ It's a shame to admit that Costa Rica has its third chancellor in a single administration. Honestly, the previous ones were accused of corruption. Right, you might need to know what a chancellor does down here. Well, he's just in charge of diplomatic relationships. Period. https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/doctor-brindo-maniobras-a-adulta-mayor-que-murio-en-vuelo-hacia-el-pais/ Sadly, a fellow Costa Rican never had one last chance to enjoy her beloved rain forests. She had passed before the plane could land safely. https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/tica-en-wuhan-pide-ayuda-para-regresar-a-costa-rica/ Right, more news concerning my homeland. A fellow Costa Rican is asking our government to repatriate her as soon as possible.

Costa Rican officials said they will monitor transit points such as airports, but for now will allow Chinese travelers to enter the country.Curiously, Costa Rica didn't ban them. Nobody would EVER suspect China has pressured the Costa Rican government to let Chinese stay in the country as much as it pleases them. https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSR4N29R01X Yeah, the coronavirus has reached Russia as well. O_O https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN1ZU12K Right, UK had made a similar announcement... https://elpais.com/sociedad/2020/01/31/actualidad/1580509404_469734.html Not even Spain escaped from the coronavirus's reach... RE: News of the World - DerVVulfman - 02-01-2020 The news is becoming too... social-activistic. Even denying known facts? https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN1ZU12K So let's get this straight. A reporter with liberal ideas and has no problem recognizing various gender identities, gets fired because he has an article that confirms that biologically there are two sexes? EDIT FROM DERVVULFMAN: The above link no longer points to the news article intended. No longer about a fired writer, it points to the CoronaVirus RE: News of the World - kyonides - 02-01-2020 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-shipments/trump-signs-executive-order-aimed-at-preventing-sales-of-counterfeit-goods-from-overseas-idUSKBN1ZU35P Well, we could say it's good to know that you're getting the real thing after you bought it online, right? https://graphics.reuters.com/CHINA-HEALTH-VIRUS-COMPARISON/0100B5BY3CY/index.html There you can get a comparison of all the infamous coronaviruses as a way to check out how dangerous the novel version really is. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-olympics-2020-japan-cyber/boj-warns-of-cyber-attack-vulnerability-ahead-of-olympic-games-idUSKBN1ZU0ND I guess I now guess what happened to Japanese when they didn't let people purchase stuff online like you do in the US, Canada, EU and even Latin America. Their banks get attacked by cyber criminals! https://www.reuters.com/article/us-nintendo-strategy/nintendo-ceo-says-no-new-switch-model-this-year-idUSKBN1ZU082 Sorry fans! You'll get no new Nintendo Switch this year! https://www.reuters.com/article/us-italy-antitrust/italy-antitrust-fines-telecom-groups-over-billing-practices-idUSKBN1ZU2Q3 It gotta be great to learn about a governing body that doesn't let telecoms impose rates at will that harm consumers. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-bushfires/australias-capital-braces-as-hot-windy-conditions-fuel-bushfires-idUSKBN1ZV39T Nope, Australia hasn't been able to stop that wildfire madness, even Canberra was in danger.

He's definitely after renewing his quest for power at any costs...

And cartels keep shooting each other... https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/local/2020/01/30/police-2-women-shoot-each-other-on-stout-street-in-detroit/ I never expected women to do such a thing but they did shoot each other in Detroit... and they're not even young ladies that can't control their hormones but elderly people! https://www.reuters.com/article/us-nicaragua-politics/former-belgian-nicaraguan-political-prisoner-calls-for-probe-into-ortega-government-idUSKBN1ZU36K Reuters Wrote:She was charged with firearms trafficking offences but the case was suspended on Thursday.Yeah, Ortega just keep smashing other people's rights, making up pathetic excuses for arresting protesters by force, and guess where many Nicaraguan go to hide from him and his thugs? Well, it's Costa Rica, if they already know they have no chance to travel to the US... RE: News of the World - DerVVulfman - 02-02-2020 YESTERDAY.... I posted a Reuters.Com link. It was about a Newspaper Writer fired because he, a liberal, wrote an article that mentioned that biologically there are two sexes. I chose the Reuters link because it was by liberal-minded Reuters. However, the article has been completely replaced with one about the coronavirus. And no, the Wayback Machine is denied. I didn't think I needed to screencap it. https://www.lawenforcementtoday.com/denver-post-writer-fired-for-stating-there-are-only-two-sexes/ This is from a website dedicated to Law Enforcement Officials. Caldera (the fired writer) Wrote:“There was a time when the liberals in the press fought hard to protect free speech. How they fight hard to mandate speech because, heaven forbid, someone be offended or have their feelings hurt. It’s okay people get offended in fact; I encourage it. It means we are being challenged. It’s not hate speech. It’s speech. It used to be the press was all about.” (02-01-2020, 09:38 AM)kyonides Wrote: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-shipments/trump-signs-executive-order-aimed-at-preventing-sales-of-counterfeit-goods-from-overseas-idUSKBN1ZU35PSomeone I know was purchasing some items from Amazon... a lower bidder for the item was in China.

Is this really under control!? https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/27/china-silent-coronavirus-origins-amid-wuhan-seafoo/ And the Wuhan sea food market theory saying that's the place where the virus originated doesn't explain why 13 of the original patients had no connection to such market at all. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-health-usa/u-s-confirms-its-eighth-case-of-coronavirus-pentagon-to-provide-quarantine-housing-idUSKBN1ZV3XV 8 cases found in US only, and they suspect somebody in Boston might have also contracted it in China... https://www.reuters.com/article/us-israel-palestinians-security/palestinians-cut-ties-with-israel-u-s-after-rejecting-peace-plan-idUSKBN1ZV3PO Fine, we all could have foreseen Palestinians heavily disliked the peace plan Trump had proposed recently but isn't it a bit extreme to cut ties with those nations altogether!? O_o? https://www.reuters.com/article/us-syria-security/jihadist-car-bomb-attacks-target-syrian-pro-government-forces-in-aleppo-idUSKBN1ZV3I1 Yeah, violence and bombings and a totalitarian government perpetuate their reign of terror in Syria... https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/feb/1/how-kids-are-conscripted-troops-in-the-cartels-war/ Well, Cartels aren't well known for caring about their "workers' human rights" at all, are they? https://www.crhoy.com/tecnologia/firman-cartas-de-intencion-para-crear-laboratorio-de-inteligencia-artificial/ Interesting, Costa Rica seemed to be eager to create an AI lab in the future. (It's not like I am keen on involving AI in every single aspect of our lives...) https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/facebook-ofrecera-un-producto-especial-para-los-ticos-este-domingo/ So Facebook would kind of support the Costa Rican Elections tomorrow. O_O Well, it's not like we're choosing who'll be the next president. In fact it's all about municipalities and their mayors.
