The United States has conducted an airstrike against Islamic State in the Afghan province of Nangarhar, just over a day after members of the terrorist group killed more than 180 at Kabul's airport.
The drone strike is understood to have successfully executed one member of Islamic State thought to be involved in planning attacks in Kabul, according to the US Central Command. On Friday, at least 169 Afghans and 13 US military officers were killed in suicide bombings by members of ISIS-K, an Islamic State affiliate. It's believed there were no civilian casualties as a result of Saturday's retaliation.

Jesus fucken christ... it is just completing the 2-week incubation cycle of the virus, making sure it is not in the South Island. There have been cases that symptoms show up on the 12th day of quarantine. So people would rather have it go rampant ...

Isn’t it interesting how much lower the bar is for bureaucrats than the private sector?
Even our sports teams get more scrutiny. Imagine if Ashley Bloomfield was an All Black coach.

China, in the midst of a rapid nuclear weapons buildup, will soon surpass Russia as the United States' top nuclear threat, a senior US military official said on Friday, warning that the two countries have no mechanisms to avert miscommunication.
US Air Force Lieutenant General Thomas Bussiere, the deputy commander of the US Strategic Command, which oversees the country's nuclear arsenal, said China's development of nuclear capabilities "can no longer be aligned" with its public claim that it wants to maintain a minimum nuclear deterrent.

Here is the thing; and it is not just "Chinese elders" it is all groups... if you come to a country to live learn the language. New Zealand has 3 official languages, "English", "Te Reo Maori", and "NZ Sign Language"... learn any one of those. Learn and comprehend it. Don't just learn the spoken word but also the written word. I don't care where you are from. If you are a Kiwi going to live in Japan you learn how to read and speak Japanese. It is that simple.
We can not be expected to translate to every known language on the planet.
