Read somewhere that she told a movie director she could only do the dog paddle.
"That's alright," he told her. "That's perfectly OK."

There's a "Golden Mean" for linear dimensions (1:1.6?); Looking at this pic, I'll bet there's a similar rule for curves.....
Sounds like a calculus thing...

The area under the curve, M. ;-) Though really you want 3-D irregular topography, which is where geometry and algebra skills come together, as I recall. That was where I hit my mathematical limit, at any rate.

The story is that CIA killed her via a seconal or nembutal enema to make it look like an accidental overdose. To protect the Beloved Jack™ who they would assassinate later.
Because this stuff doesn't have to be consistent or make sense.

New footage shows a massive mob of hundreds of migrants lined up crossing the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, Texas
Border agents have reprehended a record number of migrants in recent months. As resources are stretched thin, migration figures continue to swell
Nearly 26,000 migrants were apprehended by Texas-area Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents in under a week, 70% single adults, mostly from Venezuela and Cuba
Customs and Border Patrol saw 239,416 migrant encounters in May, the highest ever recorded in history. Border agents told DailyMail.com that that figure is likely a steep undercount, and the actual figure could be almost double when including those who successfully evade authorities.
BREAKING: One of the most massive single groups we have ever witnessed cross illegally at the border is crossing into Eagle Pass, TX right now. The line of people went so far into the trees it’s hard to get a count. Hundreds upon hundreds. Coyotes guiding them in water. @FoxNewspic.twitter.com/ZjZIygarAv
Local sources in #Takhar province said that the Pashtun #Taliban arrested a Tajik commander of this group named Maulawi Aziz in Takhar province. According to the sources, this incident happened on Monday July 11 in Kalafgan district of this province. pic.twitter.com/zv9qgl1uiz
[Garowe] The Somalia-based al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab ...... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord... gunnies suffered huge blows on Monday following an operation waged by the Somali National Army [SNA] which has been penetrating perceived strongholds of the group, which controls large swathes of rural central and southern Somalia.
SNA commanders told the state media that for the last 24 hours, Special Forces killed 25 al-Shabaab gunnies during an operation near Bukure village within Mahas District in Hiran. The region is prone to al-Shabaab attacks according to authorities.
"Somali National Army killed 25 al-Shabaab holy warriors in a special operation near Bukure village under Mahas district of Hiiraan region in the past 24 hours, SNA commanders confirmed, " state media confirmed in a Tweet.
Since Hassan Sheikh Mohamud took over as the president of Somalia, the ay [sic] has brightened campaigns against the Death Eaters, with the president urging the military to crush the group completely. There have been fierce exchanges between al-Shabaab and the government.
For instance, during his trip to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire... , President Hassan Sheikh vowed to continue using military and economic suffocation tactics against the Death Eaters, ruling out any possible negotiations in the coming months. However, a clean conscience makes a soft pillow... he noted that perhaps in the future, the government will negotiate.
On their part, al-Shabaab through their group leader Ahmed Diriye dismissed Hassan Sheikh as a sympathizer and vowed to fight his administration. The group also denied claims by the president that it was sponsoring terror groups in Nigeria and Mozambique.
President Hassan Sheikh said he was keen to ensure that all the revenue loopholes used by the gunnies are completely sealed, adding that this will effectively degrade them. The group has been fighting for the last 15 years in Somalia and neighboring countries.

On June 27, the Georgian authorities allowed Inse Lander to enter the country, from there she flew to Lithuania on June 28.

Why should he be sent anywhere except back where he came from? Or maybe to a scaffold?

If citizens had any concern or sense, if they weren't such easily distracted sheep all the time, they'd pool in and contract out a hit to some lowest rung vermin and be done with it. Crowdsourced cleansing.
Maher Al-Aqal, in our archives as Maher al-Agal, was drone-zapped in Jindires/Jindayris/Jinderis. One of the two injured with him had an I.D. card with the name Khalid Subaih, which may or may not have belonged to him...
[NPASyria] On Wednesday, a soldier of the Syrian government forces was rubbed out by unidentified gunnies in the eastern countryside of Daraa, a governorate south Syria.
An eyewitness told North Press Agency that Mahmoud Hussein al-Habisi, a member of the military security Branch of the government forces, was rubbed out by unidentified attackers in the center of the town of Mhajjah east of Daraa.
Al-Habisi, who returned from Jordan to Syria in July 2018, joined ranks of a military group of the Military Security Branch after he obtained a settlement card in 2018 and he never joined any opposition ranks after that.
In September 2021, dignitaries of Daraa governorate and Syrian government reached a ceasefire agreement under Russia’s mediation which included handing over weapons of the local factions, and deploying government’s security posts in the towns of the governorate.
Daraa governorate continues to witness ongoing killing operations without knowing the party behind them, as no party has grabbed credit for these attacks.
[NPASyria] Syrian government forces found on Tuesday warehouse of weapons and ammunition, belonging to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... Organization (ISIS) in the town of Dweir, 80 km east of Deir ez-Zor, east Syria.
A military source in the Syrian government forces said that unites of the 4th Armored Division of the Syrian government forces and military engineering found a warehouse contained large quantities of weapons and ammunition, which belonged to the ISIS, in a small room under the ground and covered with plastics.
The source, speaking on condition of anonymity ... for fear of being murdered... , said that the warehouse contained Kalashnikovs, PKCs, hand grenades, ammunition for machineguns, mortars, materials for manufacturing explosives, and banners bearing the organization’s logo.
The source said that the operation based on confessions of an ISIS detainee arrested by the government forces.
Two days ago, the government forces launched a combing campaign in the desert of Deir ez-Zor, Sukhna and Palmyra which is the fifth this year, due to increasing attacks by ISIS turbans who use al-Badia as a hideout.
The Iranian-backed militias control vast swaths of the countryside of Deir ez-Zor and Syria’s Badia that recently witnessed several battles between the Iranian-backed turbans and ISIS.
On July 4, unidentified button men killed a member of the government forces in an attack with machineguns on their posts in the town of al-Abbas, east of Deir ez-Zor.
[NPASyria] Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... Organization (ISIS) claims responsibility on Tuesday for killing a person on charges of working for Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) previously in a town east of Deir ez-Zor, eastern Syria.
The ISIS-run agency Amaq publicized a statement, saying that the ISIS holy warriors killed a former SDF member in the town of Hawaij, 45km east of Deir ez-Zor.
The countryside of Deir ez-Zor was an ISIS enclave which was liberated in 2019 by the SDF and the US-led Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS. After that, a civil autonomous administration was formed to run the affairs of the region. This civil administration is affiliated with the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES).
The AANES was first formed in 2014 in the Kurdish-majority regions of Afrin, Kobani and Jazira in northern Syria following the withdrawal of the government forces. Later, it was expanded to Manbij, Tabqa, Raqqa, Hasakah and Deir ez-Zor after the SDF defeated ISIS militarily.
On the same day, a military source in the SDF told North Press that unknown button men stormed a football pitch in Hawaij and rubbed out the 30-year-old footballer Ala’ al-Hamoud.
Al-Hamoud is a former member in the SDF, according to the source.
Recently, the countryside of Deir ez-Zor has witnessed an increase in killing cases carried out against the SDF fighters, tribal leaders, civilians, and employees of the Autonomous Administration though the SDF carries out intensive security operations.
On July 7, Amaq news agency publicized a statement, saying that ISIS holy warriors targeted an SDF leader in the town of Abu Hardub, 80 kilometers east of Deir ez-Zor, with machineguns, wounding him, and later to succumb to his injuries.
