Wales 35-28 New Zealand
Home side secure first win over All Blacks since 1953
Just when you expect it the least. By what wild logic did Wales choose now to pull off a victory 73 years in the seeking? There may have been only 55,000 in Cardiff’s great stadium, but judging by the noise alone, Wales are back.
An extraordinary defensive display for the last half-hour kept wave after wave of New Zealand attacks at bay, each greeted as if the most sublime of tries by JPR, Gareth, Shane or JJ. None of those ever tasted this, but now a new generation of Welshmen, still young and hopeful, can add a win over the All Blacks to their CV.

Sandy Baltimore’s stunning strike in added time at the end of the first half was the difference, as the west London side nullified the threat of a team that had scored in each of their preceding 21 games in all competitions, delivering their first loss of the campaign.

Andy Burnham has said the UK has “lost more than we gained” since leaving the EU, the prime minister’s latest in a string of comments criticising Brexit.
Outlining his desire to form closer ties with Brussels, Burnham accused the Conservative party of having “burned all our bridges” with the bloc after Brexit and said a new deal he hopes to secure with the EU next week will “get food prices down” and put more money in the pockets of British exporters.

Democrats who won in the midterms, including those in places previously considered off the blue map and those in Democratic strongholds, crafted their campaigns around economic populism and accountability.
Lawmakers in the anti-establishment incoming congressional class have more in common with each other than divisions, even across ideological factions. Voters sent a resounding message to work on affordability and rein in the Trump administration, and Democrats across the party have many more shared goals than Republicans, who face a more existential level of discord.

Je stapt in, start de motor en ziet niets. Zeker in de herfst en winter beslaan autoruiten aan de binnenkant snel.
Wachten tot het vanzelf wegtrekt, kost tijd. En wegrijden met slecht zicht is gevaarlijk.
Condens ontstaat als warme, vochtige lucht in de auto tegen het koude glas komt. Het vocht slaat dan neer op de ruit.
Natte jassen, schoenen en haren brengen extra vocht de auto in. Hoe natter het buiten is, hoe meer last je ervan hebt.
Ook in de winter is de airco je beste hulp. Die maakt de lucht droog, waardoor het vocht snel van de ruiten verdwijnt.
Verdwijnt de condens niet, kijk dan of er bladeren liggen onder de voorruit en bij de ventilatieroosters. Die kunnen de luchttoevoer belemmeren.
Blijft het probleem bestaan, dan kan de kachelradiateur lekken. Laat dat bij de garage controleren.

Hegseth RESPECTEERT DE TROEPEN. Oke misschien heel eventjes niet maar we hebben de video frame voor frame bestudeerd en zelfs dat was net als alles de schuld van de vrouwen. Bovenstaand ziet u Hegseth, zijn vrouw Jennifer, zijn stafchef Ricky Buria, vice-stafchef Patrick Weaver adviseur Tami Radabaugh en aanhang van alle voorgenoemden. En wie horen we lachen? Maar goed, de Honor Guard van dienst Specialist Thomas Iglesias (wat een heel exclusieve functie is, zie docu na breek) denkt daar het zijne van en schreeuwt richting zijn minister en aanhang: "All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times." En daar dacht Hegseth ook het zijn van, want hij gaf hem twee dagen later op het Pentagon de Joint Service Commendation Medal. Meer beeld na breek.
