Maybe more randomly interesting than news, but a website to track cases of the coronavirus outbreak in China. 

Feel sorry for the nurse in Saudi Arabia who was suspected of Wuhan but ended up having MERS .

What you guys think about the virus outbreak in China?

My friend came back like 6 months ago from Wuhan after living there for over 5 years, so he still have some contacts there and he tells me that situation on the ground is more dire than officials wants to admit.

Not a surprise, but what exactly does "more dire than" mean?

Everything is closed so there are problems with food and supplies. People are forced to stay indoors. It seems the numbers of sick are underreported.

Has anyone been following the impeachment trial? I started to but lost interest. It really doesn't matter what he did. They are not going to remove him. And the Democrats just fail as the party seeking justice because if all the political parties is this sad tale were reversed they would be employing the same defense of the Democratic President. 

It's just become a f-----g sad joke.

Don't blame you for losing interest.  But one bright side to this is the Senators having to sit there and be bored to death while they watch the show. Although it seems the supposedly strict rules they are under don't apply as Cruz was on his phone, several of them are standing up and walking around or out.

At least give them some credit for staying awake, man.
