Som Ek, leader of the antigovernment Tiger Head Movement and convicted mastermind of a plot in 2009 to bomb the Ministry of Defence, was rearrested yesterday morning after escaping from custody earlier this month having served less than eight years of prison sentences spanning decades.

Ek, who had been jailed at Phnom Penh’s PJ prison but fled after his family allegedly drugged the guards watching over him while he was in hospital, was arrested in Siem Reap’s Svay Leu district, said Khnang Phnom commune police chief Long Ngeak.

Ngeak said that provincial police had informed local authorities Ek was believed to be in the area and arrested him shortly thereafter as he attempted to go into hiding on Kulen mountain.

The World Cup Was A Great Success Until THAT Happened.

I detest Trump for a variety of reasons, and now he's given me one more. Despite the grave misgivings I, and many, many more, had going into this WC ( ICE, the visa issues, a top referee turned away, the treatment of the Iranian team etc.) the WC was turning into a great success, bringing people from all over the world together, including lots of Americans, many of who seemed to develop an interest in, and an enjoyment of, the beautiful game. Partly, this was because of an American side that pl

As the US top dog Donald Trump touches down in the Turkish capital of Ankara for the NATO Leaders Summit - along with around 1,400 of his minions - a very strange tradition is raising its head once again. Everything that the charismatic 80-year-old relieves his body of will not touch foreign soil. Instead, it'll be collected in his personal toilet system, watched hawk-like by accompanying members of the Secret Service with pegs on their nose. But what in God's name is this all about? https://w

'LEAVING MAGA': Former Trump supporters REVEAL why they left

gargamon · 12 hours ago12 hr

https://leavingmaga.org/ Dear MAGA Americans, I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy. But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic. Succumbing to these predatory myths

Mail wins landmark legal battle as judge throws out Prince Harry claims The Daily Mail has declared a major victory for press freedom after the High Court dismissed every claim brought against its publisher by Prince Harry and six other high-profile claimants. In a sweeping judgment running to more than 400 pages, Mr Justice Nicklin rejected all allegations against Associated Newspapers, describing the evidence presented by the claimants as insufficient to support their case.

The outcry over the execution of Ruth Ellis was a major factor in the abolition of the death penalty in the U.K. Eliis is said to have remained calm right up to the moment the trapdoor opened. When hangman Albert Pierrepoint entered her cell, she took off a pair of reading glasses she had been using and placed them on the table in front of her with the comment,"I won't be needing them anymore." Pierrepoint said she gave him a broad smile as he placed the hood over her head, but didn't speak any last words.

Tight budget can mean; Limited funds to pay for an airfare and/or NO funds available to pay for the costs incurred due to IRROPS, and no money to pay for flight options. A cheap discount airfare that might be slod at a lower cost than a basic excursion fare will cost much more if there are flight changes or disruptions. Is the passenger going to pay for baggage and seat selection.If so, then it is more cost effective to go with a higher airfare that includes these options. Low Cost Carriers are suited for the people with restricted financial means. One isn't going to get a lower cost than JetStar or VietJet.

A waste-collection system used for every POTUS, including the lefty icon Obama… but it only becomes a problem when Trump does it, of course.
