"Walking Dead" delivers another shocking casualty | The Reporter25

The Walking Dead, Daryl recovered to both his bike and his beast. The man is complete again!

Walking-Dead-delivers-another-shocking-casualty

The bad news was all the more. Most notably that before Daryl (Norman Reedus) could get their hands on the beast, the thief used to kill Denise (Merritt Wever).

In terms of scope, pace and tone, (twice as far) was a quite low key, yet delivered two big shocks. In this context, they came almost as afterthoughts. Maybe the show is trying to tell us something about the cruel arbitrary the death in the world of zombies. In this case, mission accomplished.

Denise died at the end of a mission foraging drugs with Daryl and Rosita (Christian Serratos), which she had started and insisted on joining even though she was useless as to a fighter. While out there, she doesn't hear his more experienced teammates and took unnecessary risks, because she had something to prove to herself and possibly his girlfriend Tara, away in his own delivery deadline.

We learn more about Denise in 20 minutes than in all previous appearances combined. Lots of good that'll do now.

Meanwhile, Eugene and Abraham were also out of the complex, fighting as an elderly couple, while searching for a place for the manufacture of an ammunition-new master plan of Eugene. Our uber nerd was a step ahead of Denise in that he thought he had nothing to prove anymore: I changed, adapted. I've become a survivor.

Both teams ended up running into problems because that's what happens when the problem was Dwight, a man of early season The Walking Dead, Which frankly I had completely forgotten about with a diabetic woman and who made out with Balestra of Daryl. The date didn't work out so well for Denise-croaking of Lexa in The 100 things aren't so great for lesbians in post-apocalyptic programs.

But, at least, Eugene was eventually able to bite exactly what he could chew, be gritting your teeth directly in the groin of Dwight long enough to create a distraction for Daryl and co. to fight their attackers. Let's just say that Dwight probably will not be able to have more children.

I mentioned two shocks, and the other is Carol is done with Domesticity and goes somewhere that's not Alexandria. That is an odd choice if your problem is being trapped in a cycle of violence and death. How is better out there? In any case, we have confirmation that the crisis hyperventilates from last week wasn't totally fake after all: the Lady Killer has feelings. Too bad nothing until last week had given us some idea Carol was so conflicted within. In fact, until recently she was reprimanding Morgan for not wanting to kill.

US unions plan attack on Donald Trump in attempt to derail presidential bid

Concerned labor group leaders are organizing ad campaigns and phone banks as Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs draws in union voters The prospect of a Donald Trump nomination has labor leaders scrambling to hold the line as the Republican frontrunner’s appeal to disaffected working-class voters threatens to upset the traditional political calculus. The majority of America’s almost 15 million unionized workers can be usually be relied upon to back the Democratic candidate in a presidential year, but leaders are concerned by Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs – and his insistence that union workers are just one of many groups on a long list of those he claims “love” him.

North Carolina's 'bathroom bill' battle embarrasses residents on both sides | TheNews Linzer

The escalating fight over LGBT rights has turned the historically sophisticated, inclusive southern state into a battleground of intolerance In the family of southern states, North Carolina has long been the cousin who made it. It enjoyed excellent universities, world-class industries, smooth roads and political stability. A whole class of people arose called “halfbacks”: people who retired from the north-east states to Florida, only to realize North Carolina was better and moved halfway back. Now, with the state squaring off against the federal government about who can use which bathrooms, the state finds itself at the pointy end of jokes, and lumped in with more strident southern states like Mississippi and – most bitterly – South Carolina. It’s unfamiliar for North Carolinians. It’s uncomfortable. And many are asking: how did we get here? How did the high-achieving, well-educated cousin end up with a black eye and busted knuckles, reeling over a public toilet? Continue reading....

From Uber to Eric Schmidt, tech is closer to the US government than you'd think

Twitter was scrabbling to defend the appointment of a Chinese head with government ties, yet US tech has a busy revolving door with its own government What’s worse for a Silicon Valley executive: ties to the Chinese military or friends in the US Defense Department?  Twitter found itself confronting that question this week after it hired Kathy Chen, a former engineer for the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), to head up ad sales and business development in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Internet freedom activists and Chinese dissidents, who have to skirt Beijing’s digital censors to use Twitter, said it was a betrayal. The spat illustrates the delicate balancing act technology companies face as they are forced to expand overseas to grow. In the US, Silicon Valley, like any industry, has embraced and relied on close relationships with former government officials both for technical talent and to help grease the wheels as they confront regulatory issues. Alphabet’s executive chairman, ...
