Isn't Elon trying to put someone on Mars by next year? Or did that get pushed back?

Turkish diplomats 'shot dead' in Iraqi Kurdistan

Three Turkish diplomats have been shot dead at a restaurant in the Iraqi Kurdish city of Erbil, security sources tell the BBC.

Turkey's deputy consul, who was said to have been dining with two other diplomats, is reportedly among the dead.

Sources say the gunmen have fled the scene and Kurdish security forces have closed off the surrounding area.

No-one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.

This will definitely have repercussions.

Young Drivers Could Be Banned From The Roads At Night Under New Plans

Road Safety Minister Michael Ellis said: “We have some of the safest roads in the world but we are always looking at ways to make them safer.

“We want to explore in greater detail how graduated driver licensing, or aspects of it, can help new drivers to stay safe and reduce the number of people killed or injured on our roads.”


What a thoroughly stupid idea.

You want to keep my son safe Mr Ellis? Well I suggest you let him drive his car when he wants to get home late at night, rather than walking or getting on a shitty bus where he might get stabbed.

You know what this is .............

We have this at my work as well, there are so many pen pushers in the world that unless their creating new issues for them to helm etc they become irrelevant.

It just causes sh*t for the rest of us that's the problem, I mean banning people from driving when they've done nothing wrong at night is just bat sh*t crazy.

............ has anyone told him that not all adults are responsible either, those guys flying up the motorway and 100mph in their Mercedes are not teenagers.

He doesn’t seem to have put much thought into his escape plan.

At least 52 people have been killed in a prison riot in Brazil which saw rival gangs battle for five hours...

Gang members from one prison block invaded another part of Altamira jail in Pará state

16 of the dead were decapitated.


Jesus.
