NEW YORK (AP) — A Chinese immigrant was arrested Sunday on five counts of murder in the deaths of his cousin's wife and her four in a stabbing rampage in their Brooklyn home.
The suspect, 25-year-old Ming Don Chen, implicated himself in the stabbings late Saturday in the Sunset Park neighborhood, police said. Chief of Department Phil Banks said the victims "were cut and butchered with a kitchen knife."
Two girls, 9-year-old Linda Zhuo and 7-year-old Amy Zhuo, were pronounced dead at the scene, along with the youngest , 1-year-old William Zhuo. Their brother, 5-year-old Kevin Zhuo, and 37-year-old mother, Qiao Zhen Li, were taken to hospitals, where they also were pronounced dead.
Chen is a cousin of the 's father and had been staying at the home for the past week or so, Banks said. He came to the United States from China in 2004 and seemingly struggled to make it, Banks said.
"Ever since he came to this country, everybody seems to be doing better than him," he said.

so many times when the discussions about love seem to flow into subject matter,
It's in some instances like trying to put the egg back in the shell.... and to some they simply fry or scramble the egg and eat ....

Too frequently, the media is full of killing and shooting up the schools.. sadly, this often is little white who arm themselves and head off to shoot up other in masses numbers within their schools. Where in the heck does a 12 year old get 400 rounds and multiple guns and knives? they generally bring this stuff from home.
Recently one was on trial for killing a little girl, because he claimed he wanted to know what it feels like to kill someone. I watched a crime review show last night, the man killed his girlfriend and her baby, because he wanted to live a more affluent life and thought killing them would free him to pursue it, he then went on to get with another girl and beat her every time the money ran out until he began to forge check and went on the run, pondering doing the same to this girl.
People shoot up movie theater's and all sorts of mass killings and never do they have a excuse, because there is no excuse and certainly no justifiable reason.
When we see American Blacks or Mexican killings it is a beef between two individuals, It is still too many who become killers of others, rarely is it mass killing of people they don't know and never had any relations with. Still this killer mentality for the slightest inconvenience of displeasure about something is insane.
These crazy killings of the family, or the wife, or the wife killing the husband, to the rash of video disclosure of people abusing babies, when they were hired to watch them, or parents abusing babies, or girls dumping babies in the trash and other pathetic stuff.
Some of these come from the so called well to do families or the so called middle America communities, and every time the people go into denial and claim their community is so innocent, yet the killer of others has taken a toll of shooting up the school of other .
We whine so much about tax among the right wingers, but they won't spend the money to secure these schools... all they do is talk and then the media spin fades until the next mass shooting. There is no sanctuary, Churches, Shopping areas and anything where people gather becomes the target of these blood thirsty mad men. I don't care if they are 12-13 or what ever, if they kill a mass of people they are killers. plan and simple, stop trying to push and cover it up with some medical claim. because many of these people already know they have killer . many of the people who raise these bully already know their is a bully. It's a culture mentality in many of these so called sterile envlaces.
We saw it vividly and continue to see it with the Tea Party and Republican Mentality...
They thrive on nothing but conflicts. they go from one item to the next looking for conflict, and pushing contention. Their anti American mentality is astounding, they only think in selfish single ethnic delusional terms. It continue to come back and land right in their own communities with their killing up other and making the school grounds their hunting places. Guarantee in many of these households these killer spring from is probably filled with bigoted and other mentalities and bully talk about acting out on others.
Then after the fact, they always want to claim their little Johnny, is such a good , yet he has killed up a bunch of people and created havoc for the whole community.
It's Pathetic.
America is raising too many killer .... Period... regardless of their motivations they are still producing too many killer .

What are "some of the things" which challenge you most about love.

For me, I think the one thing is, trusting that a woman has the will and focus to stay invested in the relationship by her own self motivation.
I don't like the idea of women having a list of duties they expect men to perform, or thinking that he owes her something just because she is there. ( in the sense that he has to be on some perpetual buying mission of things), just so she will smile and be a happy spirited person. It was far better when women appreciated the things the man did give, because it was something he wanted to give by his own desire to do so.
Life was much easier for love, back in the days, before shopping and commercials dominated the lives of people. they focused more on their needs, rather than their whimsical wants, they were pleased to have the basics without requiring designer name labels to be on everything. Home was appreciated as somewhere to live, rather than trying to see who can have the most luxuriously (mostly unused) huge houses. They did not need to change cars just because a new model came out.
today, people can't even be comfortable with things like cell phone, because now days people go stand in line every six months to buy the next Iphone.
I truly dislike the fact that women think they control sex in relationships and try to use it like a bargaining tool... that is probably among the worst of things, and is a sure fire way to destroy the intimacy and eventually destroys the trust in person.

With a price of $4.6 million and a top speed of 220 mph, the Veneno Roadster come with the same speed– at 2.9 seconds the Veneno Roadster’s 0-60 time is just a fraction of a second slower than the hardtop’s 2.8-second 0-60 run. But when you are sub-three seconds anyways, does it really matter?

Choking smog all but shut down one of northeastern China's largest cities on Monday, forcing schools to suspended classes, snarling traffic and closing the airport, in the country's first major air pollution crisis of the winter.
An index measuring PM2.5, or particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5), reached a reading of 1,000 in some parts of Harbin, the gritty capital of northeastern Heilongjiang province and home to some 11 million people.
A level above 300 is considered hazardous, while the World Health Organisation recommends a daily level of no more than 20.

After 80 years together 103-year-old Jose Manuel Riella and 99-year old Martina Lopez of Paraguay, finally decided to tie the knot in a religious ceremony.
The blushing bride explained, "My wanted us to get married, they told me that is what they wanted.” The two were joined in a civil union 40 years ago, but at that time did not perform the sacrament of marriage of the Catholic Church. The adorable couple held hands while priest Cristian Paiva officiated the wedding in a garden at their Santa Rosa De Aguaray home. "It is the first time I am marrying someone of this age and I am very happy to marry these two,” Paiva said.
The couple has built a sizable family in their 80 years together with eight , 50 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren and 20 great-great-grandchildren. The new bride, Martina Lopez de Riella said, “I am happy because all but two of my are here, but all the rest are here." After the ceremony, family and friends celebrated at the couple’s home.

"Gravity" in 3D

This was the first 3D movies I have seen, I think its quite amazing.
I did enjoy the movie along with the challenges within the depictions.
What I did not understand is, they say these things zip around the world at thousands of miles per hr. based on land speed. Then how does one astronaut untethered keep up, or how does the small rocket packs on the back allow them to keep up ?
If someone has insight on this factor, please share it.

It's Raining ....

We've had a long hot summer, this morning I let the dogs out and a bit later I heard the water pouring down, You guessed it, they were more than ready to get back in the house.
Well, the rain came down very hard and then it stopped, now a few hours later it is coming down and quite steady...
It really take the urgency to go any place out of the mindset, so maybe I can get to a more relaxed state of mind on this Saturday.
Lately the weekends seem to fly by, and Monday morning when I'm finally relaxed down then its time to go to work.
Well, its thunder and lightening, one does not really have a problem with it, but the smaller one has not like for it at all.. He seems to find nothing but panic when it is thundering. there's not much that can be done to fix it, other than let him sit as close as he wants each time it crackles. They both do however seem to come in the same room with me,
I try to buy the hot dogs they have on sale with 8 in a pack, so they can have them as treats, they seem to really like them. Along with I buy cookies which they get every morning before I go to work. IF I run out of cookies, they do have a perplexed look on their face if I prepare to leave and they don't have that cookie.
The funny thing is, some days maybe they are discontent, because they may leave their cookies on the floor all day, and then when I come home, let them out and they come back in, then they will each eat their cookies.
I like having these dogs, they are like gifts in their presence, I'm sure they are delighted in the same ways about me.
The rain is coming and going, it certainly has raised the humidity, but I know everything will look and feel refreshed when its done.
I see one house which has a slumped over tree, they did not water their pecan tree all summer and it simply slumped over, I know that tree is delighted and hopefully it will recover with this rain....
The thing that is missing .... is a happy nature woman....
