Teacher tells students to speak "American," not Spanish because that's what troops are fighting for
I don't blame those students for walking out of class! Trump's Murica!
CLIFFSIDE PARK, N.J. A 25-second video clip recorded inside a classroom at New Jersey's Cliffside Park High School has struck up a controversy on social media, according to WPIX.
men and women are fighting. They are not fighting for your right to speak Spanish. They are fighting for your right to speak American, a teacher can be heard saying to her class.
Students in Cliffside Park, a diverse community with a large number of Spanish-speaking students, immediately reacted to the comment. At least one even walked out.
"You're being racist," that student can be heard saying on the video. "I know how to speak English."

Russian man says he's the reincarnation of Jesus Christ
In the wilderness of Siberia, thousands of people have flocked to a group of small towns named Petropavlovka.
What would drive people to drop everything and move to a cottage in one of the coldest and most remote parts of the planet? The chance to meet the Son of God in the flesh. Petropavlovka is home to almost 5,000 "Vissarionites," who worship a man who claims to be Jesus reincarnated.
Vissarion, a.k.a. the Teacher, lives in a private compound nearby, but his followers get to hear him give sermons where he discusses topics like vegetarianism, reincarnation and the coming apocalypse, which he says will be a "great flood." Before that day comes, Vissarion hopes to unite all the world's religions.
His followers also study the Last Testament, Vissarion's 10-volume "sequel" to the Bible which includes philosophy, descriptions of aliens and warnings about the future. His followers are also forbidden from drinking and smoking, or using money.

Buffalo sauce latte, anyone?
Tim Hortons, the Canadian doughnut franchise, has introduced them.
The Canadian fast-food chain is debuting the Buffalo Latte. It has all the makings of your classic latte, plus "Buffalo sauce flavor" and "a dusting of zesty Buffalo seasoning."
Tim Hortons and Buffalo sauce were both born in 1964, so why not take these two Buffalo staples and combine them? said Stephen Goldstein, Regional President, Tim Hortons U.S. in a press release. The unlikely pairing of sweet mocha and tangy Buffalo sauce come together to create an unexpectedly delicious sweet and spicy treat we hope our guests will enjoy.

There's a ball game on between the Cubs and the Nats
Just Game 5 of the NLDS, and the winner is two steps away from possibly winning a World Series. No big deal.
