Protester Rushes Stage At Hillary Clinton Rally, Clinton Doesn’t Flinch
The Independent is reporting on an animal rights activist who rushed the stage at a Hillary Clinton rally as the former Secretary of State was speaking.
Hillary Clinton was rushed at by an animal rights protester during a speech on the economy, the second time in a week. Ms Clinton was talking in Des Moines, Iowa, and facing the other way as a woman launched herself over the barrier and towards the stage.
She has been named as 26-year-old Kelsey Atkinson from campaign group Direct Action Everywhere, which fights for “total animal liberation”. Just as the protester got to the steps, Secret Service staff pulled Ms Atkinson away.
You’ll note as the Secret Service take the protester down in the background Hillary doesn’t even flinch or break stride as she continues talking on her policy proposals.
My girl Hillary is one cool customer 🙂

Your Luggage’s Journey Through The Airport
From Gizmodo:
I just cannot stop watching this hypnotizing video created by Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport and edited by Thrillist. They strapped a 360-degree camera on a checked bag and documented a dizzying POV as the luggage made its way through an insane maze of elevators, conveyor belts and endless shelves.
But what I want to know is: how does the bag know where it’s going???
