Whats good for Ronaldo should be good for others. Cristiano Ronaldo, Folarin Balogun And FIFA Reversing Red-Card Suspension, Explained "Ronaldo received a direct red card during Portugal's final World Cup qualifier in November for elbowing Ireland defender Dara O'Shea in the back.  The FIFA Disciplinary Code typically mandates a strict three-match ban for violent conduct, which would have ruled Ronaldo out of the opening match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup".   https://www.foxsports.com/stories/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-folarin-balogun-red-card-suspension The story is based on a FOXsports report</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 17:25:59 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Pope Calls on Europe to Strengthen Support for Migrants</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398093-pope-calls-on-europe-to-strengthen-support-for-migrants/?do=findComment&comment=20586083]]></link><description>Who would have thought it, eh?

I think graphic &amp; honest sex ed should start at eight.  Another factor not mentioned in these reports is sex education in schools. It should be explicit, graphic and real. Kids can see all those body parts on the Internet, anyway. You’re not protecting them by not really giving them the facts of life. Not rolling a rubber onto a banana!  Sex education should begin around age eight because many girls will start to menstruate at age 10. They should be prepared when boys or men start to come on to them.  Birth control instruction should be a strong part of sex ed. Condoms should be available for free anonymously to both sexes, birth control pills and morning after if the student requests it.  This will no doubt cause community outrage. They’d rather see their daughters raped.  You may think this goes too far. If girls were educated, there would have been fewer victims in Rotherham, Telford and Rochdale.]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 17:17:06 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>British Woman Charged With Murder in Pattaya</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398073-british-woman-charged-with-murder-in-pattaya/?do=findComment&comment=20586078]]></link><description>It&#x2019;s not really a beef with Safety First - I like him&#x2026;   But push back on his content as you have mine&#x2026;.

I  have to say every one of those sound like porn fetish titles to me.  The takeaway is that many US high schools have daycare so the girls don't drop out of school. Trump may have canceled those by now. Obnoxious whining drivel, the only reason anybody watch was hoping to see what these teens actually did to get pregnant.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 17:01:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Returning Home after 50 Years in Asia: How to reduce Culture Shock?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398175-returning-home-after-50-years-in-asia-how-to-reduce-culture-shock/?do=findComment&comment=20586071]]></link><description>Vermont</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 16:58:46 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Returning Home after 50 Years in Asia: How to reduce Culture Shock?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398175-returning-home-after-50-years-in-asia-how-to-reduce-culture-shock/?do=findComment&comment=20586070]]></link><description>No, definitely doesn't qualify you.

They are not White Supremacists, but they do lean towards being White Separatists.  They also have a fundamental belief in the self improvement of men through exercise, martial arts, etc.  This alone makes them a target in the West where men are supposed to be weak and helpless.They are not violent people even though they have the capacity for violence, they choose to be peaceful.  They are also some of the most polite people I have even met. It's obvious that many people here hate White men, mostly because of the propaganda from the legacy media.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 16:56:52 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Returning Home after 50 Years in Asia: How to reduce Culture Shock?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398175-returning-home-after-50-years-in-asia-how-to-reduce-culture-shock/?do=findComment&comment=20586068]]></link><description>Get a cleaning job.

The benefit is part of the appeal of either spending the money on that visa, or going through the more in-depth application process.  They don't really have any reason to offer it to PR, since they aren't trying to incentivize people to apply for it. Seems like the exact opposite for the most part.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 16:49:58 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Elbit Four's phony justice</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398166-elbit-fours-phony-justice/?do=findComment&comment=20586064]]></link><description>About the same, I figure.
