Trump and Clinton Win New York Primaries

Image
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, the Republican and Democratic party frontrunners for US presidential nominations, have won their respective primaries in New York state. Trump easily won his nominating contest on Tuesday, moving closer to capturing enough delegates to clinch the nomination and avoid a contested convention in July. The billionaire’s big victory in his home state gave him renewed momentum in the Republican race and pushed him closer to the 1,237 delegates he needs to win the nomination. Clinton also won in New York, which she once represented in the US Senate, blunting the momentum of rival Bernie Sanders and taking a big step towards wrapping up the nomination. The victories for Trump and Clinton, in one of the biggest state nominating contests so far, set both up for strong performances next Tuesday, when they are expected to do well in five other Northeastern state primaries. Trump won in the state where he was born and whe...

Image
A massive explosion at an oil facility in southeastern Mexico has killed at least three workers, injured 136 and triggered evacuations, officials and state-run energy giant Pemex said on Wednesday. A huge plume of toxic grey smoke could be seen spewing from the plant, known as Pajaritos, in the city of Coatzacoalcos, in Veracruz state. The blast, which was felt from as far as 10km away, forced the evacuation of nearby schools and businesses.  The cause of the explosion at the Petroquimica Mexicana de Vinilo plant, jointly owned by Pemex, was not immediately known.

People living in the vicinity should remain indoors as the “cloud of chemical...

The 10 Most Heartfelt Compliments You Can Ever Give A Guy

Men like heartfelt compliments, too. When you hear the word “compliment,” it probably makes you think of all the sweet things that men say to their significant others, am I right? Well listen up ladies: Compliments are a two-way street and as it turns out, men love to hear them, too. And we’re not just talking about the compliments that focus on their physical features, or their uhh … horizontal talents, either. Not that they don’t appreciate a good, “I’m still thinking about what you did to me this morning” text here and there (they asked me to make that clear.) Read on for some pretty damn adorable answers from men on the heartfelt compliments that make them swoon when said to them by a special lady. 1. I’m proud of you. “I love it when a girl I’m dating is genuinely interested in something I’ve accomplished, whether it’s a song I wrote or a new piece of music equipment I’m working with.” 2. I like your friends. “Listen, I know my friends can be total c...

8 Signs She’s THE ONE (Don’t Screw It Up!)

If you’re trying to figure out whether it’s love you’re feeling, here are 8 signs that those three little words might just be in order. 1. You’re scared to death… of losing her, of keeping her, of never being with another woman… the list goes on and on. Are you ready for all this? What if it crashes and burns like your last relationship? Wait, how did you let this happen again? Yet deep down, you know you’re going for it anyway. 2. You’ll do whatever it takes to impress her. “You want to go eat at the vegetarian restaurant? Sure.” “And salsa dance afterward? Why not?” When you’re willing to bend your own rules, try new things, and go the extra mile for her—like walking her fluffy, little dog when she’s sick or helping her move when you should be watching the game—chances are, it’s that crazy little thing called love. 3. “8 seconds left in overtime, she’s on your mind, she’s on your mind…” This line from “Over My Head” by The Fray pretty much sums it up. She ...
