Is Crystal Palace being demoted actually good news?
Here's the story. Crystal Palace won the FA Cup, meaning they qualified for next season's Europa League. Europe's 2nd tier competition. But UEFA have noticed that one of the club's joint owners is also a joint owner of the French club Lyon, who also qualified for the Europa League. UEFA rules are that two clubs with the same owner cannot play in the same competition. The club with the higher league position gets priority. Lyon finished 6th in France, Palace finished 12th, so Palace have been demoted to the Conference League, the 3rd tier competion.
Although some are saying Palace have been treated unfairly as the owner only has a minority shareholding, I think it could end up being a good thing for the club and supporters. They would have a much better chance of winning the Conference League than the Europa League. -
An atheist was seated next to a dusty old cowboy on an airplane and he turned to him and said, “Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”
The old cowboy, who had just started to read his book, replied to the total stranger, “What would you want to talk about?”
“Oh, I don’t know,” said the atheist. “How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?” as he smiled smugly.
“Okay,” he said. “Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff – grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?”
The atheist, visibly surprised by the old cowboy's intelligence, thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”
To which the cowboy replies, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don’t know shit?”........... -

British Special Forces Kill Mission (Edited)
Terrorist bomb maker was killed when a Hellfire missile targeted him on his motorbike, controlled by a Reaper drone.
Damned good shot, to do it by drone to a guy on a motor bike ! Laser guidance is miraculous.
A drone kill on Trump or Putin looks highly possible. Drones can be controlled 1,000's of miles away from their target by visual technology. A whole army of bodyguards would be useless against a drone kill. The controller keeps his cursor on target on screen and the drone flies to it, like clicking a link on your computer.
The MQ-9 Reaper drone can reach ranges of approximately 1,150 miles.
Individual assassination is no problem knowing the location of the target and GPS navigation.

Motion sickness in electric cars

Trump to be denied address to Parliament on state visit
Donald Trump will not be given the honour of addressing Parliament during his state visit as Emmanuel Macron did this week, The Telegraph understands.
The date of the US president’s trip is being deliberately timed for mid-September, when there is a parliamentary recess, handing the UK an excuse for not offering the speech.
Mr Trump is also not expected to visit Buckingham Palace, which is being restored, or enjoy a ceremonial carriage ride down the Mall in London – features of many past state visits from world leaders. Mr Macron did not visit the palace.
There had been concerns that Labour MPs could protest against a joint address to Parliament, possibly by staying away en masse, causing potential embarrassment to Mr Trump.
It means he will not achieve something enjoyed by his predecessors Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
The lack of an address to Parliament risks a backlash from the US president, who British officials privately acknowledge is sensitive to perceived slights.

79% of Russians Back Putin (Edited)
Putin - is a very confident, polished character and benefits greatly from his KGB experience.
He has handled the Russian nation with expertise for 25 years, through thick and thin.
Most importantly he does what he says.
Trump - is old, a bully, braggart, liar and a coward. He lies consistently and commits continual clangers and blunders. He only does what he says when he can bully the issue. He is openly scared of Putin and does not compete with any US military force whatsoever. He is no more than an old bully and coward.

Termination of USAID by Trump - 14 Million Deaths Worldwide (Edited)
According to several estimates, the termination of USAID's activities could result in more than 14 million deaths worldwide over the next five years. This prospect has prompted a wave of international criticism.
How horrible, but the world cannot expect to live on the prosperity and generosity of America and the Western nations. It is just economically impossible.

Would you choose either of them as a friend?
Trump will ‘take a look’ at deporting Musk over tax bill criticism.
US president warns Tesla billionaire that he would have to ‘close up shop’ without federal support for businesses
Donald Trump said he would “take a look” at deporting Elon Musk after the billionaire Tesla boss reignited their bitter feud.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Mr Trump said his former ally was urging Republicans to vote against his tax and spending bill because he is upset about “losing his EV (electric vehicle) mandate”, adding that Mr Musk could “lose a lot more” than government subsidies afforded to Tesla.
Asked by reporters if he would consider deporting the South African-born businessman, Mr Trump said he would “take a look”.
The president had said earlier on Truth Social that Mr Musk would be forced to “close up shop and head back to South Africa” if he loses US government contracts.
The war of words came after Mr Musk intensified his criticism of Mr Trump’s so-called “big, beautiful bill”, which pledges to slash taxes for the rich, make sweeping cuts to welfare programmes such as Medicaid, and remove incentives for Americans to buy electric cars.
Posting on X, Mr Musk said he would make it his mission to oust Republican senators who vote in favour of the legislation. The 54-year-old also threatened to put their faces on a poster, accusing them of being a “liar” and of “voting to increase America’s debt” by $5 trillion.
