BTW, this is the ninth time I have submitted this story. But I just knew it fits this audience, so I tried again. So, if you feel your submissions never make it to the front page, realize that much of it is pure chance.
How do you resubmit the same link though? You tack on &attempt=55 to the end?

Like: meet [name], actress and model.
I don't think it's quite the same. She could have been living a double life and not been an assassin. They aren't synonymous.

Thinking only sociopaths can do really terrible things is likely very wrong. Normal people can decide over some time to switch off empathy, or to work against it. This needs to be understood.
Even in the most "civilized" and wealthy of western democracies, 1 week of no food, water and electricity would lead to absolute bedlam.

Yes, and all it typically takes to turn off empathy is believing they're doing the right thing against "bad" people.

One trick is to append a period after the TLD. So for the link above, it'd be http://www.independent.co.uk./news/world/americas/i-fell-in-... Notice the period after ".co.uk" and before the "/" E.g. "Example.com./" Having a period after TLD is a valid URL. But rarely seen.
