Take Serbia. It has all the trappings of a democracy. It does not lock up journalists for what they write. Yet in dozens of ways it makes their jobs and lives difficult, unless they support the government

A 15,000-year-old painted limestone, from the Hohle Fels Cave, Swabian Jura. The shapes of the dots are symmetrical and executed precisely. The accuracy indicates that the dot rows were painted using a tool or stamp.

If all these rich men "regret" their time with Epstein then why didn't they announce prior to the release of the files that their names would be part of the collection? Why didn't they self-report? The answer is they are not sorry and have no regret. They are sorry and regret they got caught.

I have a real love/hate relationship with my electric guitars. On the rare occasions I can get decent sounds out of them, I love them. The rest of the time, meh.
