I got lucky. With this I made literally a years pay waiting tables, the first month.

 

MEDELLIN, Colombia (AP) — A chartered plane carrying a Brazilian first division soccer team crashed outside Medellin while on its way to the finals of a regional tournament, killing 76 people, Colombian officials said Tuesday. Six people initially survived, but one of them later died in a hospital.

The British Aerospace 146 short-haul plane, operated by a charter airline named LaMia, declared an emergency at 10 p.m. Monday (0300 GMT) because of an electrical failure, aviation authorities said.

The aircraft, which had departed from Santa Cruz, Bolivia, was transporting the Chapecoense soccer team from southern Brazil for the first leg Wednesday of a two-game Copa Sudamericana final against Atletico Nacional of Medellin.

"What was supposed to be a celebration has turned into a tragedy," Medellin Mayor Federico Gutierrez said from the search and rescue command center.

The club said in a brief statement on its Facebook page that "may God accompany our athletes, officials, journalists and other guests traveling with our delegation."

South America's soccer federation extended its condolences to the entire Chapecoense community and said its president, Alejandro Dominguez, was on his way to Medellin. All soccer activities were suspended until further notice, the organization said in a http://www.si.com/planet-futbol/2016/11/29/chapecoense-soccer-team-plane-crash-brazil-colombiastatement.

Today is the day when Google's Pixel phones truly go on the sale in India. So what are the Pixel and Pixel XL? When Google recently launched the Pixel and the Pixel XL, it sought to highlight one particular aspect of these two phones. The company said that unlike the Google phones of yesteryear, the Pixel and the Pixel XL were designed by Google. It said, though not so explicitly, that the Nexus phones that were result of a collaboration with the hardware partner that made them. But Pixel phones are Google's own phones. Or so the company claims. 

But surprisingly, for phones that have been designed and engineered in-house, the Pixels looks too similar to everything out there in the market. In fact, both will, if you overlook the glass part on the back cover, easily pass off as HTC phones because they look so similar to the HTC A9 and HTC 10. That is not a coincidence. HTC has actually made the Pixel and the Pixel XL, even though on this occasion the company has strictly played the role of an ODM (other device manufacturer).
