A Riverside man who posted videos of himself seriously abusing a puppy, including slitting its throat, to social media accounts will spend two years in federal prison, authorities announced Monday. Angel Ramos-Corrales, 19, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge John F. Walter after pleading guilty on June 3 to one count of felony animal crushing, according to the U.S. attorney’s office for the Central District of California. The attack occurred Feb. 13, the same day Riverside police were contacted about a video on Ramos-Corrales’ Snapchat account showing a small, brown dog with its throat cut, prosecutors said. Ramos-Corrales told investigators that he’d had the dog, named Canelo, for about four or five months and that he bought Canelo from a couple in Apple Valley for $30 off Craigslist, according to court documents. He said that Canelo was “moody” with him after pooping in his cage and that the dog nipped him, causing him to lose control, according to court documents. Ramos-Corrales called himself a “cold blooded killer” and said he couldn’t stop himself from hurting the dog, the documents said. Canelo suffered major injuries, including severe, blunt force head trauma, in addition to having his throat slit, the documents said.…

U.S. firms have done business in China with their eyes open: They will compromise on civil liberties, they know, yet they hope their compliance pays off — not only in revenue but also in the scintilla of liberalization a firm based in a democratic country can bring to an authoritarian one. Yet one by one, companies such as Twitter and Facebook have been blocked or, like Google, withdrawn of their own reluctant accord. They have discovered the demands made of them to censor information or fork over consumer data are too much, and the reward too little. In September, LinkedIn was embroiled in controversy over the removal of U.S. journalists’ profiles from the China app. The fracas followed the blocking of scholars and human rights activists living around the world.LinkedIn will shutter the Chinese version of its product in favor of a jobs board app stripped of shared posts or articles. The company mentions in the blog post announcing its decision a “significantly more challenging operating environment and greater compliance requirements”; it also mentions “freedom of expression.” The post’s equivalent in Chinese doesn’t include any of these terms, notes the news site Protocol. That just about sums up the problem.…

Today I am going to share three secrets to successful investing. We share our portfolio of 20-25 stock picks in our monthly newsletter since March 2017 and these stocks returned 191.6% cumulatively vs. 100.4% for the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) over the last 4.5 years. Our stock picks returned 26.8% on an annualized basis, vs. 16.7% for the S&P 500 ETF. So, how did we manage to beat the market by more than 10 percentage points per year? We aren’t traders. Most of the times I have no idea which stocks are going to outperform the next day, week, or month. We are long-term investors. We try to identify stocks that are going to outperform the market over the next one to 10 years. Long-term investing isn’t competitive at all. Short-term investors cause a lot of distortions in stock prices which create a lot of long-term investment opportunities. I call these long-term opportunities because I don’t know when exactly the market will correct these pricing errors. We covered our shorts and loaded up on beaten down stocks at the end of March 2020 when the S&P 500 Index was trading at 2450. That’s the #1 secret to our success. On…

by Alex Billington November 1, 2021Source: Vimeo "What I reckon is, they did something… something evil." Halloween may be over, but there are still spooky stories to tell! Filmmaker Will Webb debuted his latest short film this past weekend and it's worth a watch. Another Unknown Mystery is a riff on the classic "Unsolved Mysteries" TV show (which scared the crap out of me as a kid, too). Not only does it make fun of the show and its host, it's also telling a chilling horror story in its own right. Though it's honestly not that scary. Webb describes it on Twitter as a "VHS horror microshort" that was inspired by his own childhood memory of discovering "Unsolved Mysteries" late one night, and being haunted by the images ever since. Another Unknown Mystery stars Tom Knight, Elena Voce, Stewart Lockwood, and Kevin Layne. They pulled off making this short inbetween lockdowns, and it's just some simple, harmless tongue-in-cheek "unknown mystery" fun. Pop in the VHS tape and enjoy. Thanks to Twitter for the tip on this one. Original description from Vimeo: "Nobody knows what happened to Nancy Kerridge in the warehouse that night; an investigation by supernatural magazine show Another…
