People are very conscious about weight gain. I think that the most easiest way to lose pounds is to take regular exercises along with a proper diet. My friend has taken thé cellulite from https://www.cellublue.com/fr/ to lose body fats. Adopting some changes in the daily routine can help in maintaining a fit body.

Right on. Human rights if necessary but not necessarily human rights. All of this may interfer with our (Liberal) natural rights to govern and thus interfer with our entitlements.

If the Church had allowed polygamy in the time of Henry VIII, it would have limited his concupiscence not one whit and saved six women's heads.

Congratulations ...... assinine comment of the day.

How much money has been spent on education, ie neighborhood schools? Simplest answer TRILLIONS. No funding is NOT the solution. Education isn't about educating skulls full of mush, it's about control, and indoctrination of skulls full of mush. The first fallacy is the amount of money spent on education, improves education for ALL students. So the leap of logic is those who continue to say the problem with education is not enough funding.

I think it was lower oil prices that hurt you, as that started more than two years ago

Talk about generalizing! Five of them. This is why you'll never get why Trump was elected.

The instruction addressed cases the vicar thought might arise. Polygamists are not (at the moment) attempting to hijack the Church's liturgy to push their political agenda.

Ridiculous comment to make. Descriptions of wanted criminals are always generally included in crime reports like this one. Do you not want these hoodlums to be caught, and brought to justice?? I'm surprised that the victim was only 43. Usually it is the elderly who are more susceptible to con jobs like this.

Hurry up Southwest! Time is a'wasting.

Thought you did not like deficits?

People would do well to remember that the right of way is something to be given, not taken.

Peter Touesnard, OmniTrax's chief commercial officer, said a lawsuit will delay the transfer of the railway to new owners. Of course Peter Touesnard said this because he is in breach of a contract and he doesn't want to spend the money to repair the railway. They shouldn't have signed the contract. You are under contract so fix it! In a deal reached with Ottawa and Manitoba in 2008, OmniTrax agreed to operate and maintain the rail line until 2029 in exchange for about $40-million. OmniTrax got their $40 million so if you aren't going to hold up your end of the contract give back the $40 million dollars!

Unless, as a pedestrian, you are totally clueless about the powers of cars and the huge amount of traffic in our cities, and you still decide, as is your right, to walk around on city sidewalks as a vulnerable human, I think it's wise to take every precaution to be safe. That means to be as alert as any driver (of cars and bikes) which could include looking to your left, right and left again before crossing a street. And maybe for a few seconds put away your addiction to text or check your phone. For your own safety. Who can argue that it's not worth the trouble. We live in a car economy, love or hate it, and drivers should not be solely responsible for every accident out there.

Rather than focusing on something that happened in TO years ago, it would be better to focus attention on what's happening now in Canadian cities where homicide rates are the highest like Vancouver, Edmonton and Winnipeg.

What a wonderful illustration of the problem of foreign buyers and our local real estate markets. Busloads of foreign real estate sales people finding out that Canadian real estate is cheap by rich foreigner standards. How much money laundering are we inviting to Toronto? Thank you, Elise.

The Libs likely still want to talk about pixies and unicorns while everyone else is trying to discuss intellectual rights, lumber, agriculture and manufacturing.

White washing the real problem. We have a totally incompetent Honolulu Fire Department. Even the Three Stooges would do a better job. Shibai and covering up the idiots who are in charge. Caldwell should resign immediately and let the voters get someone else to run the City.

Denver is going to get the "LOCAL" economy its foolish liberal citizens wanted. Any company dependent on revenue outside the city or state that must also compete with competitors outside the city or state will eventually be forced to leave the city or even the state. It is not this one "green roof" stupidity that will do it. Rather, the compilation of never ending liberal feel good taxes for one special cause after another. These children seem to think "rich people" and businesses can endlessly absorb the costs of their special projects. They are wrong. Denver will get what it deserves...Detroit 2.0

> None of this means crossing the street with your head buried in a smartphone is a good idea. Well yeah. As for the 'statistics', suppose someone steps out onto a crosswalk, texting away, at the same time a car (maybe too close to come to a stop?) comes zooming along. Q: Who is at fault? A: For the pedestrian, it doesn't matter. And if you want to start relying exclusively on 'statistics', how many accidents are caused by cars that 'don't come to a complete stop at a stop sign'?? 'Common sense' suggests it isn't a good idea, which is another way to say, 'People shouldn't do this'. Pass the law and, probably very occasionally, it will be enforced. And if the G&M bothers to report these times, it will encourage other people to pay attention when crossing the road. Otherwise you are left with 'finger-wagging' at the person and we all know how effective that is.

Always blame government for your failures and take full credit for success. That's the ticket!

I am not a believer, but that "defense" of Moore is WAAY beyond indecent. Were I a believer, I would be outraged.

The sin that cries out to heaven for vengeance is the act which substitutes the organ of waste extraction for the organ of procreation; it is a parable in action that identifies the creation of humanity with the effluence of filth. It is an act that demonstrates hostility and enmity to the Creator of Mankind.

They are still at it

The other major concern for conservatives is lower taxes. This is reflected in the GOP tax plan which will result in a major expansion of the US deficit. I am not sure Sheer can adopt the same voodoo economics here since Canadian conservatives are anti deficit. Of course Conservatives love conservative deficits. Sheer should tackle the fiscal paradise but that will mean changes to Canada tax laws. The tax paid by wealthy Canadians would increase. In light of their criticisms of the Morneau tax law changes that does not seem likely. The reason why Conservatives are 'veto voters' is because they can only oppose, not propose. Simply saying something is flawed is not sufficient as a viable alternative.

Assume for the moment that this passes. There will be a drop in taxes for Paul Ryan's favorite $59K/year family. When fully in place, they will actually see it shrink and become a tax increase as time goes on. https://medium.com/whatever-source-derived/how-a-tax-cut-turns-into-a-tax-increase-960c32d1ba82 But wait - it gets better. You know that $1,500,000,000 deficit? As soon as that happens, then you will hear: "Gosh - we've GOT to get this deficit under control. Everyone has to tighten their belts. We will unfortunately have to make cuts in Social Security, Medicare, and other entitlements. The military will be off limits of course!" Every time they make some grand proposal, they give it a name, usually 180 degrees away from what it actually does. To break with that tradition, perhaps this should be called "The Great Bait and Switch act of 2017".

With USA-China bilateral agreements threatening the welfare of all 11 TPP countries this news is disheartening. Our side of the story better be good.

"when their progeny have the temerity to assert their voice, they're sneered at for displaying the same optimism and ambition that they once did." You mean like when the boomers rebelled against their parents and the war in Vietnam and stuff like that? Grow up.

Actually the 'count-downs' (for those municipalities that have them) are PEDESTRIAN signals. "In theory", cars aren't supposed to look at them. And "In theory" (at least in Toronto) pedestrians aren't supposed to start crossing once the count-down starts. But we all know what really happens.

With the lies of the Clinton, "I didn't have sex with that women" Bill and Hillary, the video did it. Or Obama "if you like your doctor or insurance you can keep them". The left uses their sides lying to say Trump lies regularly, however they can't quote a specific incident, as I have above, where Trump out and out lied. Saying you want something, and that something is depended on others, and if others don't give you what you want isn't a lie. A lie is KNOWING what the truth is and refusing to say it. So the most important quality is telling the truth and being willing to deal with the truth, honestly. Think, the Russians hack the election, because Hillary lost, EVIDENCE PLEASE. The left hasn't been able to deal with the truth for over a year.

Completely out to lunch. In five years 1 bitcoin will buy a lambo! There are already coins that do not require exchanges, transactions are between the buyer and seller only. Money is received and the coins released. There is no way to stop it, track it, regulate it or control it by big brother. Fiat money will lose more and more value. There will be more and more people converting to cryptocurrency, then a huge run as people unload fiat all together. It will be worthless even as TP. The governments will collapse. It will be beautiful because we will be really become free. The only thing to do is understand what is happening and take action. The sooner the better for you. It is has been a long time coming since they dropped the gold standard.

Trudeau doesn't make a show at the TTP leader's meeting and the Globe ignores it instead handing pedestrians full power to do as they please on city streets. Then blaming all on drivers (cars, trucks, bikes etc).

You are judging harshly the other way. I would love to take transit if it could get me to work in 45 minutes each way. 75 minutes each way or more versus 35 to 40 in my car means I drive. We would have to build rapid transit outside the city core to make that happen for me, and I live in central east Toronto.

Please learn what "Modernist" actually means.

Quite the racist rant - not that he has anything to worry about... penalties for racist comments/speech vary a great deal in this country according to who makes them and at whom they are directed.

The funeral liturgy is not always celebrated in the context of a mass. It is perfectly legitimate, though not quite ordinary, to celebrate the funeral liturgy in private. This is the possibility the vicar is suggesting for cases in which the deceased was known to promote an agenda at odds with the Catholic faith.

So, a party showing favoritism towards a candidate is just the same in your book as a 32-year-old feeling up (or more) a 14-year-old. Interesting....considering that Donna Brazile was on a Morning Joe yesterday talking about that (but, of course, Joe Scarborough is a conservative). Something tells me that if you switched the party affiliations in this scenario, you'd have a different tone.

Boomers did NOT inherit a fully funded CPP. CPP became fully funded courtesy of the boomers. It was originally pay-as-you-go, until around the 1990s when contribution rates were drastically hiked, to both pay for funding for the boomers, and also to create full funding for the the previous generations that had not paid their share. This is why the contribution-to-benefit ratio of the CPP expansion is better than the current ratio. Only those who paid into the expansion actually get the benefits.

No.

Blame whoever you want, cities cannot afford to dedicate so much money and land to cars. There isn't a city on earth that has solved their transit problems by private vehicles. Pedestrians are the cheapest means of transportation, bicycles second. If you want your taxes to go down, start eliminating all the support for cars. Then the city reduce big wide 6 lane streets to 2 and sell the land for billions to developers.

Wow, Brooks saying it is unfortunate to learn the truth isn't that a perfect description of CNN. They are always sad to learn the truth.

Both of these tax plans are disasters. Economic growth comes from the poor, the lower middle class, and the upper middle class buying things. This plan raises taxes on families since it removes the per person deduction and raises taxes on the upper middle class, who spend the most money. When 30 percent of the US population now has to stop spending money, it means we get a economic recession. And it increases the national debt by $1.7 trillion dollars over each decade to cut corporate income taxes. The Supreme Court and the law has stated that corporations are people. So technically they should pay the single individual income tax rate. The Republican's need to rethink their tax plan completely. Lower the 10, 15, and 25% income tax brackets. We should also move to a territorial tax system.

You like the American Values of 1776 because they still permitted slavery and denied women the right to vote.

The PM failed to show up?? One would have thought that the expected behaviour of a PM would be to show up for a critical meeting, out of respect to new and old allies, to voice his concerns to potential trade partners. A no show is unprofessional and undiplomatic behaviour of a leader supposedly representing out interests. But then again, look at the track record. The government nearly bungled CETA, which still has the possibility of failing. NAFTA has been a disaster with the government's absurd attempts to include non economic matters in the trade pact. And now this. We have an amateur government representing our economic interests and, as one would expected, it is doing a lousy job.

You mean they will get rid of the carried interest loophole? Nah!

Very nice! perfect timing

Yet another anti-Russian rant from Mr Aurel Braun. He is free to take any strident anti-Russia position but at least be mindful of becoming a laughing stock, a fate that Mr Braun found hard to avoid. The many inconsistencies in his opinion piece emanate from a serious lack of understanding of the dynamics that have driven world events over the last few years. Mr Xi has visited Putin in Moscow half a dozen times in 18 months, hardly the "irrelevance" that Mr Braun strives (in a histrionic manner no less) to attach to Putin and Russia. He comments negatively on the size of the Russian economy (which is true) but the economy is growing and diversifying despite all NATO-driven sanctions much to the dismay of their sponsors. Mr Obama also tried the same "belittling" trick calling the country a "regional power" until 6 months later it intervened in Syria and finished-off ISIS when Western countries couldn't. It is time to stop wishful thinking and engage seriously with Russia

I might go. I've always enjoyed Mel Gibson flicks.

What a tortured preamble before getting into the matter.

Endless words. Endless smart words. Endless concepts."Whatever." Look in and out, about and around, below and above - and under .. What is there? Bring in the carrots. But not digital ones please. The real thing.

This number is inflated by at least a factor of four. The incidence of ambiguous genitalia is 1 in 2000. A nation of 80 million people does not have 160,000 people with ambiguous genitalia.

I bet you're a lifelong bachelor....or, at the very least, your wife has no idea of the stuff you post.

@Paul and KHZ Exactly, the combination of jumping on memes on Twitter and the rush to virtue signal to ones colleagues. The double edged sword of Twitter is how quickly one can scan a few tweets and get the "zeitgeist" - especially in the tribal sense. See: http://thefederalist.com/2017/11/09/140orfight-twitter-destroying-expanding-280-characters/ This is bad for journalism, which should be critical and also try to present context. Then again, we are in the age where journalist have redefined themselves into clear political positions and roles. This is happening all the time, even with the Pauw book journalist were quick to jump on the "confirming the classified reports" narrative before exploring the legal issues.

I think it has already jumped the shark

Of course cars kill people and pedestrians don't. That doesn't mean pedestrians should rely on drivers to avoid them if they're distracted. It's not only drivers. I've seen people stop to text or read on busy subway stairs, on exiting subway cars or just stop dead while walking on the sidewalk. I doubt legislation is the way to go but distracted pedestrians should be culpable if injury occurs, if they're not dead.

If these allegations are true, Moore is a terrible person and should resign I think many are logically questioning the timing, and the time that hadn't passed, with regard to the allegations I encourage men to support women who speak up early and often on inappropriate behavior, and recognize that the longer that things go unsaid, the burden ofbelief becomes more difficult We must not tolerate this behavior in our society

A petulant vindictive piece of writing , almost devoid of any theological or even spiritual insight. Basically all he is saying is "Ha ha Weinandy , now the Popes men are doing you orthodox Catholics what you did to us progressive Catholcs in the days of JP11 and Benedict". Fr Reece seems to have zero appreciation of he importance of upholding the teachings which have been handed down by the apostles and safeguarded by the church for two thousand years.This is all Fr Weinandy is trying to do. It seems such thinking is an anathema to Jesuit philosophy.

I smell your denial.

You sound like the expert in that sort of thing.

No they're not. She was on Morning Joe (a show that, to you, is leftist simply because they dare criticize Trump) just yesterday morning. Pretty telling of your logic that you'll refer to media people as "sycophants", but nothing about the pedophile.

Good luck. It seems you have more money than sense.

Roy, says, no problems, before preying on the little girl he checked the Alabama's White Farmers Almanac: Recommended breeding age; Pigs; 6 months Cattle; 2 years Horses; 3 years Little White Girls; 13 years Little Black Girls; Whenever you like

Either you weren't around during the 1990s, or you seem to think that the media needs to replay Clinton news from the 1990s on a continuous loop.

There are a lot of screwed up people on the Internet. The wisest course of action is to ignore them. The reason he keeps digging at you is because he knows he will get a response. Just ignore him. He'll find somebody else to pick on. I once heard a dog trainer on one of those "Help, my dog misbehaves" shows tell a dog-owner, "From his point of view, you're turning yourself into a giant squeaky toy, so of course he's going to squeak it."

Please do not blame environmentalists. Blame people who like to do public policy without relevant data and modeling to support their policies. As you have pointed out there may be more negative environmental consequences than positive. I strongly believe we need to do a lot to improve the environment but this measure as worded is confusing and will likely not be able to deliver the benefits claimed.

I come into this city once a week to take help take care of my grandchildren. They live on a one way street with speed bumps and it does absolutely nothing to slow people down. The speed that people drive in this city is disgusting. Why anyone wants to live and raise children here is beyond comprehension.

Republican collusion-Democrat collusion, bribes, pay for play charities, who said hello to the Russian ambassador, who was selling out America, why can't congress and the Republicans do their job, who's molested who, and finally fake news reporting all the juicy, salacious details whether true or not like the National Enquirer etc., aside.... Listening to other news as it happened hours ago, that has yet to be reported here, Mr. Trump's speech before the Asian Pacific Economic Cooperation yesterday, was one of powerful, articulated excellence, and long overdue. It showed great strength, something that past administrations have long lacked, especially Mr. Obama who was very weak on the concerns raised in that speech, and it was well received. Mr. Trump spoke to the sovereignty of nations and the power of free and equal trade balances. It was 30 minutes of America stating a powerful new course in the world. Of Mr. Trump follows through, it will be a first that has long been overlooked.

Using scripture is disappointing, but not surprising. Scripture is an all-purpose cleaner.

Idiot Critnitwit....why don't you be original.....and stop plageurizing from Good Will Hunting! LOL!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIdsjNGCGz4 CAUGHT!!!

Liberals will decide that they will lose the next election without support from Quebec, so the Muslim vote will be sacrificed. But they will continue to speak out on behalf of Muslims in western Canada and hopefully pick up some of their votes...

This is why the obsession with "truth" is so misguided. What is the truth between say (1) farm murders as cause (narrow sense); (2) in relation to general violent crime (broader sense) (3) apartheid flags (one aspect of story) and reaction from critics (how "others" see it)? Facts don't get to political truths easily...Journos should emphasize reliability (sources / reporting) and add value with exploring context / "stories" / perspectives. If you enter the world of "political truth" your are not only setting yourself up for failure (loss of credibility); but entering into politics (adopting biased views) which is better reserved for the opinion pages...

Got anything from scripture to support your sexual predator?

that doesn't mean anything. A second newspaper can simply confirm the same single source for an incident and then say 2 sources confirm incident.

Lol. Bill Clinton likely wouldn't win am election today. Since he's not running and he was never accused of do doing a 14 yo, though, pretty irrelevant.

Yadda yadda yadda. I thought governments beat themselves, and the voters look for the alternative. In 2015, voters went Trudeau to defeat Harper. Competing to be THE veto party only works when the voters want to cast a veto. So, unless the economy crashes after Trump rips up NAFTA / FTA, it will not be until 2023 that voters will be seriously looking for an alternative to the Liberals, Then it will depend on whether the social conservatives publish their equivalent of their LEAP manifesto and doom their party.

What is true is that it is these people who spend the most and help economic growth. So they have a significant impact on the economy. And more often than not they are dual income families where both the husband and wife have decent paying jobs. The Republicans are going to create a economic recession. The Republicans said they would lower everybody's taxes. But their plans show that is a lie. These are the people that buy higher end products, go to restaurants, travel, employ professional contractors, pay for child care, pay for schools, etc. So Republicans are stupidly going to raise their taxes.

If you watched any of his comedy (as those who agreed to work with him must have) then you know the topics are at best on the very edge of acceptable. If you agree to work in that environment then why would you be surprised by it when you get there? It seems he asked permission and never had contact with his "victims". This does sound like a bit of a witch hunt. I see no one has reported to the police. That says a lot.

Liz Yes, antifluoridationists do deem facts, evidence, and peer-reviewed science to be “empty badgering” . This is precisely why you all remain so completely uninformed on this issue. Since you so obviously resent our challenging and correction of the mounds of misinformation posted by antifluoridationists then simply stop posting it and we will gladly go away. As that will, of course, never happen, you probably should just get used to us. The days of comment sections after fluoridation articles being nothing more than cesspools of antifluoridationist hogwash are over. Steven D. Slott, DDS Communications Officer American Fluoridation Society

For those that do not have the brain wired or structured, from basic education and social conditioning and teaching, in the separation of church and state is difficult to accept that science, medical and in general most of the advances, which we enjoy today, are the result of a much important critical analysis, which hung well above our lives and practically direct us from the essential scepticism to empirical studies. Not the dogmatic principles which generally obstruct, by its own nature the more numerous optional, even yet to discover, possibilities and realities of everything we know and enjoy today. They might, with power and money, buy their way throughout; but never create the conditions; all social, educational and empirics, which will contradict the tenets of their social structure and believe.

Did Jim Ziegler just call God a pedophile to justify the crap that Moore did? Sad!

Is this a case of "sour grapes", or are you seriously culture-free. Only the Louvre can compete with the Hermitage. The whole of St. Petersburg and its canals is magnificent and so are some smaller town round it.

“we have seen where that leads”. Really? Please tell us. I live in Alberta - the air is clean, the streams and forests are beautiful. The Rocky Mountains are a natural wonder. Hard working people develop and transport the resources of this province responsibly using the latest technology to ensure safety and minimize environmental damage - for the good of the entire country. But hysterical uninformed “progressives” like yourself seem intent on killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Like it or not Canada is a resource based economy. Shutting down the development of those resources is irresponsible, short sighted, hypocritical and incredibly foolish. Have you given any thought at all where that may lead?

Just glancing at the performance vs RBC Can Div and I don't see much different except the fees which are 0.5% higher than the A and more than 1.0% higher than the D series from RBC. Not that I love RBC, just sayin'.

Risky business that, when we were snowmobiling up north we took off our heaadgear to go into store or any public place, common courtesy. Also didn't want anyone shouting robbery and be surrounded by LEO's

The Democratic Party is in better shape in the sense that losing in either Virginia or New Jersey would have been a catastrophe. Virginia has voted Democratic in the last three presidential elections, and New Jersey is one of the bluest states in the union. The real question is whether Democrats can still win statewide in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa.

You're ignoring the fact that the Federal Government sold their main customer to the Saudis, who then stopped shipping grain to Churchill.

Nothing to do with religion here, suppression of feminism maybe

Now, back to who's making love to who, Hollywood being a signpost on the way to Hell and destruction of all morals, what the senator's jury is doing, how congress can't agree or lead the nation regardless of the party, the last presidential election's big loser and her book and blame tour, followed by the DNC Chairman discussing details of her book as she candidly points out she was used like a slave by Ms. Clinton and others, and much, much more salacious tidbits and details from the fake news of mainstream media of America, of whom the world is laughing at and tuning in daily as their new top rated, comedy reality show! And it's all here today folks, on "As The World Turns and America Falls Apart". Shall we now break for a word from our sponsors, the Russians?

Everyone (male) in college in the 70's could be called out on sexual harassment 30-40-50 years later. Ask my wife we are still married with 3 kids you need some smoke to get fire.

While Trump is standing up for american trade our feckless liberal PM doesn't even bother to show up. How much more will trudeau embarrass Canadians.

There are many parts of Canada - rural and urban -where drivers do not believe pedestrians and bicyclists belong on or near the road with them. I have witnessed cars attempting to force bikes off the road and have seen cars, buses, garbage trucks and delivery fans exceed the speed limit at school crossings and on roads where pedestrians must share the curb. The killings will continue as long as drivers remain ignorant of their obligations and responsibilities. There are parts of the world where drivers drive efficiently and safely, where they stop for pedestrians crossing the road because it is the right thing to do and always always always slow down when or near pedestrians and bicyclists. Travel to these countries and see for yourself: Germany, Sweden, Norway and Finland to name a few. It is no coincidence these countries also rank highest on human and social development and quality of education. Stupidity is no excuse for driving badly. Smugness is no excuse for bullying.

its just that he had to do more meetings/talking its all he seems to be good at- talk talk talk--- but no good action

God telling us what to do is wholly different from people telling us what to do.

Stupid people never learn to live below their means.

''It is indeed a great honour for me and I’m humbled by this gesture'' - Dude, it was your idea!

Been there. Tolerated some but when I lost my new Roots leather jacket I said stop and called in everyone who could be a culprit and said what I had to say. Within days most of the lost stuff was returned to our porch - I think in the dark - including my $400 leather jacket. No personal blaming, no harsh words, no ultimatums. And everyone was coming and going as before but no more lifting of wrongful goods.

The replacement of the battery becomes moot if the car is worth less than the battery when it comes time to replace it. It's like deciding to put a new engine in an ten year old car without one (ask yourself who wants a ten year old EV other than the original owner given the rapid change in technology over that time). The prices have batteries have fallen quite a bit but not enough. The battery for the Chevy Bolt is still more than $15k. I look forward to reading a post from you when your battery expires to see if you actually replace the battery or the entire car. And I haven't even discussed the environmental cost of battery disposal or recycling. Currently, it still costs more to recycle a battery then the recovered material is worth.

"Dear Amy: I’m sorry you are getting so much backlash about your ridiculous stance about “cultural appropriation” on Halloween, but it’s time for reason and logic to make a comeback. I’m not Mexican, but if I want to wear a mariachi costume to work on Halloween, then I should! — Disturbed Dear Disturbed: Um no, you shouldn’t. One thing I’ve learned is that there are a lot of overgrown children out there who want to take this kids’ holiday to the office." Um, yes, absolutely he/she should be able to wear that. Many offices encourage Halloween costumes, even putting on contests and such, to encourage camaraderie. You may view it as a "kids' holiday," but the millions of adults who enjoy participating clearly disagree.

I have yet to see a person killed by another person with thier phone, but I have seen a person killed by another person with thier car.
