They should never run that photo, but damn you’d have to be crazy to own a phone case like that. It’s just crying out, shoot me. Don’t give them any more excuses to open fire. It’s screaming out probable cause.

I have a few friends who work in law enforcement, and we have discussed this particular case in some detail. They suggest two scenarios, #1. the stated chain of events never happened the way they were described, or if it did happen, #2. Noor was flirting, or showing off his weapon to “impress the lady”, and through…

You’re very naive if you think racism is a US only reality. It has existed as long as humans since crawled out of the oceans.

Say what you will, Amex has outstanding customer service based here within the US.  They have resolved many issues over the years in a satisfactory manner.  They are a pleasure to deal with.

I’ve been to many catholic funerals, but have never seen one with an open casket. This service appears to be more like a wake. Is this something they do in Maryland ?

I always find these articles ironic, since lifehacker and its sister sites are loaded with trackers. 31 on this page alone. Maybe I need to check the European version...

You’re very generous with considering them in the 20th century. Although it is true women didn’t get the vote until the early 20th century in the west. There is no comparison to the treatment of women in the 20th century in the west, and that of current Saudi women.

Straws help with another issue. I hate getting glasses with lipstick marks on the brim. I have to imagine that restaurants will have extra work cleaning their glassware properly (which they probably should be doing anyway)

It’s been a huge help for my kids.

I’m getting a real white savior vibe from her

Qantas, nice meal service in Coach, virtually unlimited booze.

It’s even older than that, Georges Lemaître, was a Belgian Catholic priest, as well as an astronomer, and physics professor, proposed the idea of the Big Bang back in 1927

What happened to the whole “my culture/religion/etc is not your costume/fashion/etc” meme.

A correctly titled article

If workplace jobs can place cameras (including hidden one) in a place of employment (except of course, in places where you expect privacy, like toilets, etc) then I think it’s fair to have them in your home as well.

I always liked a few places in the Chinatown area, Dim Sum Garden, and Terakawa Ramen, I also like the Dandelion near Rittenhouse.

I’m very familiar with this area, and over the last few years, I’ve see Center City slowly moving up Broad Street from Vine and Temple University area moving down from Cecil B Moore to meet it. Fishtown is expanding west, and Fairmont moving east.

Sounds like a winning comedy ;)
