The suspect, who was identified as a 52-year-old Chinese employee at the in-home center, began attacking three little girls, a baby boy and two adults, and eventually tried to take her own life by turning the knife on herself and slitting her wrists.

Wet Storms: Donald Trump’s Most Ignorant Moments During Hurricane Relief Efforts

See the original post here:

Source: MANDEL NGAN/AFP/Getty Images / Getty Unfortunately, over the last few years we’ve witnessed some major hurricanes that haves caused devastation across U.S. territories. In 2017 alone, the U.S. was hit with multiple Category 4 or more hurricanes, including Hurricane Harvey (which hit parts of Texas and Louisiana), Hurricane Irma (which hit various Caribbean islands and parts of Florida) and Hurricane Maria (which hit various Caribbean islands, including Puerto Rico). Each hurricane has caused major displacement and devastation amongst residents, and now in 2018, parts of the Carolinas and Virginia have been tragically hit by Hurricane Florence. Relief efforts after each hurricane continues to be a challenge and our current commander-in-chief isn’t necessarily making things smoothers. Even though Donald Trump has made appearances to places hit hard by hurricanes, his insensitive rhetoric and just plain ridiculousness continues to make people wonder how this man became president. Hit the next pages for a teaser of all the outrageous things Trump has said in the midst of tragedy.

I was born in 1980, so when we moved in 1987, it was right at the height of it.” Richard moved to Phoenix when his mom married his step-dad and they’ve been together ever since. He said “they started their own church, a small church and they started doing missionary work in East Africa – Kenya, Tanzania.

Michael B. Jordan Is The New Face Of Coach Menswear

Paras Griffin/Getty Images for Essence Michael B. Jordan Is Now The Face Of Coach Menswear Talk about having a good year. Following the company’s success during Coach’s partnership with actress and singer Selena Gomez, the brand has just announced that  Michael B. Jordan  will be the new face of menswear. The Black Panther , Creed , and Fahrenheit 451  actor will not only represent the brand, but is also designing his very own capsule collection in the future. He is set to meet with creative director Stuart Vevers next month to begin brainstorming ideas for his own designs. Before designing some pieces of his own, though, Jordan is now appearing in advertising campaigns for the brand’s men’s ready-to-wear, accessories, and fragrances–beginning with the new spring 2019 season. “I liked what Stuart was doing so we decided to move forward with me being the face of the brand,” the 31-year-old told  WWD . When he was asked about his personal style, Michael said that he feels just as comfortable in a “very pristine” suit as he does in streetwear, but in the end, he spends more time thinking about the roles that he plays. “As an actor, I’m always putting on somebody else’s shoes and becoming someone else,” he explained. To go along with that, Jordan said that he keeps his stylist busy since he’s constantly gaining muscle mass and then slimming down thanks to roles like Creed . As for what we can expect from Jordan’s own designs, he’s not letting anything slip. When the actor was asked to name an athlete or fellow celebrity whose looks inspire him he responded, “There are a lot of people whose style I like, but I wouldn’t want to dress like them.” So it looks like we’ll just have to wait and see what his capsule collection entails once it hits stores. Congrats to MBJ on the big moves!

According to the product description, “This is approximately 12 tears made by Noah Cyrus as a result of sadness.” The description goes on to say that, “Human digestion of these tears is not suggested cause tears are generally pretty salty and that would just be super f—king weird if you drank someone else’s tears.” Right….because selling AND buying the tears in the first place isn’t weird…it’s only weird if you drink them.
