Of the four hunger strikers, only Hou avoided arrest. He continued to defy the government. After Gao and Zhou were released they, too, refused to be silenced. At their abortive press conference last week the three men intended to demand freedom for the hundreds of political prisoners still in jail. But the day they were to deliver their challenge, they disappeared. As the June 4 anniversary approached, government intimidation intensified....
I will agree that some of the more inventive coverage and unashamed wallowing in the fleshly details of both the marriage and the murders are pretty disgusting and, frankly, beyond either my power or my intention to defend. But it is something else altogether to pronounce, as so many have, that the keen interest being shown in the case is evidence of our moral and intellectual frivolity, if not squalor, as a people, as well as further proof that the media have forgotten not only their manners, but their mission....
The Brazilian scored two stunning goals in the space of six second-half minutes to secure a 2-1 comeback victory for West Ham over struggling Southampton on Thursday.

However, a key difference between the two games is that New Vegas allowed players to sleep with prostitutes, meanwhile The Outer Worlds’ Captain “Alex Hawthorne” cannot romance or sleep with anyone. Just because it’s not possible in-game doesn’t mean it’s hard to imagine how these romances would play out, though. In fact, given every companions’ personality, it’s pretty easy to see how things would play out between the player character and the object of their affection*....

If you need to find the average value for the existing data, you can use the AVERAGE function along with the IF and ISNUMBER functions in an array formula to give you the average while ignoring the errors....

The ad—showing a black student in class with the title “Slave for sale (Naperville)"—was first posted on Craigslist, but quickly circulated among students at Naperville Central High School in Naperville, Illinois, on social media, ABC7 reported. The post sparked outrage among African American students at the school and their parents and prompted an investigation by school officials. Veronica Lewis told ABC7 she wasn’t surprised by the post because her own son had experienced racial bullying from other students at the school....
The IMF Executive Board said in a Friday release that the account had been approved “at the request of several IMF member countries.” The organization said that the account would “channel donor resources in the form of grants and loans” that could help stabilize the economy of the war-torn country, while donors would “benefit from the IMF’s tested infrastructure to quickly deliver authenticated payments.” Ukraine may receive its first large donation through the account from the government of Canada, which played a key role in the creation of the account and has pledged a loan of 1 billion Canadian dollars, or approximately $796 million in U....
But many buyers of these cards are being ripped off to the tune of millions of dollars a year. Some cards fail to deliver the promised minutes. Others tack on confusing fees that may not be listed in the microscopic print on the back of the card. Still others round up each call to the nearest three-minute mark. “Sometimes they give you all the minutes. Sometimes they don’t. Then you have to switch to a new card,” said Augusto Revolorio, a Miami Beach grocery stocker....

Immobile’s low strike from the left side of the area into the bottom-right corner saw him equal a club record he set in 2017-18....
Ken Shamrock vs Madman Fulton (w/ oVe) Ken Shamrock opened the PPV looking in fantastic shape. He took on the more physically imposing Madman Fulton.
