My employer is changing and the new employer has been hesitant to change the language regarding to termination that they have in their contract. It states that the agreement is for 12 months initially. It goes on to say that "Thereafter, this agreement will renew automatically for an additional...

I would be careful about anything that comes up on YouTube. The below is from the article from CNN that you shared. When something isn't "automatic", doesn't "move" itself "in any manner" and is "designed to be intentionally moved", it sounds to me like it's highly unlikely that it would fall...

These are moments when I think to myself that they should just let them live in peace. I know they're public figures, the former two maybe more so than the latter two. However, they're also human-beings. And Will and Harry have gone through a lot. So, maybe whoever does the report should...

If your intention wasn't to minimize, what was the intention of this post in the context it was posted in?

The Sussexes death threats are public knowledge but I find it difficult to believe that they're the only royals receiving death threats. I'm sure they all get them, not just the BRF but other royal families, too. I also think that other public figures get death threats. It's possible that...

Her words are beautiful (and heartfelt) overall but I especially liked how she ended the post.

I'm reading the tributes on the Instagram page of The Skaing Lesson and what really gets to me is how many families have been torn apart. Just heartbreaking. :wuzrobbed

My condolences to anyone who lost friends or family! I didn't watch the video but the helicopter should have known to expect planes over the Potomac because all flights in and out of Reagan have to follow the Potomac from/up until a certain point. This crash is beyond puzzling.

At least three people have died due to an explosion in Hawaii as well. While officials haven't released an official cause yet (and it occured only three miles from the headquarter of US Army Pacific), I've read elsewhere that it looks like this one wasn't terrorism or deliberate but caused by...

I read that 200,000 bee hives were destroyed or damaged by both hurricanes across Florida, Georgia and North Carolina. As if the bee population weren't in trouble enough already :(

Yeah, my parents have acquaintances in St. Petersburg. I don't know what the term is in English but they said the place that provides them with electricity and water were both destroyed, so it's going to take a while until they get either back. They chose to ride out the storm, don't know why...

Strangely enough, it's always the women who are the "nightmare boss" when they're in the spotlight. Or maybe not so strange...

ISIS has claimed responsibility. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/deadly-knife-attack-festival-germany-rcna168050

That's the age-old question and also a question I've been asking myself in general so often as of late. I sure hope it wasn't another intelligence failure on Germany's part.

Three people were killed and several injured after they were attacked with a knife at Solingen's 650th anniversary celebration. It seems that the attacker chose the victims at random. The attacker was also able to flee in the ensuing chaos. No known motive as of yet...
