This couple bought a home next to an airport. Now they're upset about the noise and the fumes. You'd almost think they're Americans, but in fact they're Brits.
Here's a novel concept: if you want peace and quiet, don't buy a home next to a busy airport.

An Italian politician who vehemently opposes compulsory vaccinations is currently dealing with a dose of his own medicine, or lack thereof. In the very same week that Italy began enforcing its new school vaccination rules, one of the policy's most vocal critics was diagnosed and hospitalised with chickenpox.
The idiot spent nearly a week in the hospital. But then, he's a politician - so you know he wasn't missed.

The bombings, Sri Lanka’s deadliest violence since a devastating civil war ended a decade ago on the island nation, killed at least 290 people with more than 500 wounded, police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said. Twenty-four arrests have been made but no single group has claimed responsibility for the terror acts, the Sri Lanka Daily Mirror reports.
Defense Minister Ruwan Wijewardena described the blasts as a terrorist attack by “a radical Islamic group.”
There are pockets of racists in the world, and individuals who engage in terrible acts of violence against innocent people. These are dangerous men, capable of doing tremendous damage. But no group threatens global peace the same way that political Islam does. None has its reach or material and theological support. None has created more mayhem and death in the world since the end of the Cold War.

This is Canada’s skid row, a place where almost everyone can tell you about the friends and neighbors they’ve lost to an overdose. This city has seen a sixfold increase in overdose deaths over the last decade, with more than 1,000 of those people dying since 2016 alone. According to the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control, more than 300 of those deaths happened in the last two years here in the Downtown Eastside, a roughly seven-block strip that contains one of North America’s densest populations of injection drug users.
Yes, Vancouver B.C. is a beautiful city with a really dark underbelly. It's kind of amazing that they tolerate so much up there.
They are really dense.
Last time I walked around there after dark, I had a dozen hookers asking if I'd like to "party" for a hundred bucks. Absolutely weird.
In the daytime, Vancouver's a pretty nice place. Just don't go out after dark.

Naturally, some people have a problem with this:
They question why the money isn't being pledged to house the homeless in Paris.
But many people are wondering why France’s richest men have suddenly found enormous amounts of spare cash to pay for a church roof when thousands of people are living without shelter on the streets of Paris.

The medieval cathedral was completed in the 13th Century and today, with its towers, spire, flying buttresses and stained glass, is considered a feat of architecture as much as a religious symbol. It is one of Paris' most popular attractions, drawing an estimated 13 million visitors a year.
This is going to take a lot of francs and a long time to restore.

"We've ended the asylum of this spoiled brat," a visibly flustered President Lenin Moreno said Thursday in a fiery speech explaining his decision to withdraw protection of Assange and hand him over to British police. As the asylum dragged on, his relations with his hosts soured and his behavior became more erratic. Embassy staff complained of him skateboarding at night, playing loud music and walking around in his underwear with no apparent concern for others in the tiny embassy.
As the asylum dragged on, his relations with his hosts soured and his behavior became more erratic. Embassy staff complained of him skateboarding at night, playing loud music and walking around in his underwear with no apparent concern for others in the tiny embassy.
Then there was the issue of Assange's poop, which authorities said he spread across embassy walls on at least one occasion in an act of open defiance showing how little he thought of his hosts.
"When you're given shelter, cared for and provided food, you don't denounce the owner of the house," Moreno said Thursday to applause.
That guy's seriously disturbed, and it's no wonder that Assange was eventually shown the Ecua-Door.

Attempts by firefighters on the ground at Dubai International Airport to welcome a Saudi jet on the country’s national day backfired spectacularly, breaking the plane and injuring a passenger, as they showered it with a salute from their hoses.

LONDON (Reuters) - Walmart-owned British supermarket chain Asda said it will remove single kitchen knives from sale in all its stores by the end of April.
Britain’s knife-crime rate is soaring and, following a wave of fatal stabbings in recent weeks, many involving teenagers, Prime Minister Theresa May has convened a meeting of ministers and community leaders to discuss ways of tackling the problem.
“We know single knives are the most common knife products to be stolen and that is why we have chosen to remove these items from our stores,” Asda Senior Vice President Nick Jones said in a statement.
It is illegal to sell knives to under-18s in Britain.
Well, since they have strict gun-control, killers have to turn to other means.
Next up: banning clubs.

A Honduran mother who was traveling with a migrant caravan marching on the U.S. has been arrested in Texas for allegedly assaulting a woman with a gun, according to the Daily Mail.
But this isn’t just any invading migrant, Mirian Zelaya Gómez is infamously known as “Lady Frijoles” or Bean Lady for complaining about food Mexican authorities gave the caravan, slamming a serving of refried beans — a traditional staple of Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine — as pig food.
Free food, and she gripes about it.
Gómez, 38, and her sister, Mirna Zelaya Gómez, 33, were apprehended in Dallas last week and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
The hot-blooded Latinas will be doing some time, then be deported.
Both women are being held on a $10,000 bond and, according to Brietbart News, have immigration detainers on them.
We only get the best and brightest "migrants".
