Nek Muhammad knew he was being followed.
On a hot day in June 2004, the Pashtun tribesman was lounging inside a mud compound in South Waziristan, speaking by satellite phone to one of the many reporters who regularly interviewed him on how he had fought and humbled Pakistan’s army in the country’s western mountains.

Cantera Dreams: Americans Underground in Mexico →
Daniel Olea is just one of many Mexican-American kids who have travelled south in recent years, hoping for a professional career in Mexico. A list that users of the website BigSoccer.com maintain is striking for its size (they counted 85 players eligible for the U.S. national team at the start of the 2011-2012 Mexican league season) as well as the difficulty they have in keeping it up to date....

thesmithian:
…And this genuine scandal is tied to the non-scandal of Benghazi and the genuine debate about how far the DOJ should go in punishing leakers of classified information. Individually, only the IRS affair seems a genuine scandal…But drama is the stuff of pageviews. And the chattering classes can only take a no-drama president for so long.

If you like ANYTHING about Reagan, go away. I don’t care if he had his “moments;” he was an outright fascist that contributed to global genocide.
I love how conservatives worship him despite the fact that he signed the bill in California that banned open-carry while governor of the state.

Damn he had a good year too, maybe he can replace that loser Chicharito (hehe)

see, in spanish the word for “genre” and the word for “gender” is the same: “género”. if you live in mexico and someone asks you what gender you are, you can be whatever i’m comfortable with. i’m a boy, or a girl. i’m a crime noir with a bit of spicy romance. i’m post-punk electronic music. i have trascended human perceptions of gender and am now a being of pure art

Ronald Reagan and the fall of UC [LA Times] →
thenoobyorker:
Once upon a time, the University of California was a sacred trust, the top tier of a model educational system that helped lift the state to unprecedented prosperity. It was jealously protected from outside political interference.
