    Oh god, I guess I wouldn't make a good White House Speech writer. I'd totally miss something like that and suddenly the President would be racist.
    'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
    Or a yawing hole in a battered head
    And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
    And there they lay I damn me eyes
    All lookouts clapped on Paradise
    All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

    Yes and no, SA would not mind IS causing instability in large parts of the Middle East. For example running down Assad would be very much in their interest, it would however be a threat to them if IS grew too large to be stopped or if IS would target SA directly in any serious way.
    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    Shame, I would love to go to the island of Socotra someday, a most fascinating place.

    But then again Yemen has been unstable for a long time already, it's not exactly surprising it got even worse.
