When I think back at the lap, it's nothing," @placeholder, seeking his first world title, told reporters when asked to explain his radio outburst. | (CNN) -- Formula One's new rule banning driver coaching on team radios is now in place, but it was a message going in the other direction that summed up the fine line between success and failure for this season's title contenders. "Dammit!" uttered a frustrated Nico Rosberg after being gazumped by Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton at the end of qualifying for Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix. The German was pipped by just seven-thousandths of a second under lights at the Marina Bay street circuit on Saturday, giving his British rival the chance to further chip into his 22-point lead. Hamilton won the last race at Monza after starting on pole, battling back to beat Rosberg after losing his early advantage, and a seventh victory this season would give him the momentum as the campaign moves towards its climax.

Those on the right of @placeholder's party resent his re-branding , or as some put it 'de-toxifying'' of the Conservative party. | London, England (CNN) -- How big is big? How open is open? Conservative leader David Cameron has said his power-sharing offer to the Liberal Democrats following the unresolved UK election is "big, open and comprehensive." But will it be big enough to tempt them to ally with a traditional political opponent? Will it be open enough to persuade those in both parties who fear that essential principles or interests will be sold out? Will there be a Conservative/Liberal Democrat deal at all?

@placeholder uses fuchsia on cool skin tones and peachy nude on warm ones for day. | (InStyle) -- After years in the bronze age, when sun-kissed cheeks and gloss reigned supreme, fall's return to glamour means that lipstick is making a major comeback. Lipstick outsold gloss by $76 million last year, and beauty companies are racing to launch new formulas that are more wearable than ever. So pucker up. We'll show you how to apply lipstick perfectly, along with the most flattering shades for day and night. For foolproof application, stick with sheer, subdued shades in the morning and save deep, bold colors (which require more time and precision) for night. Daytime equation 1. Condition and protect with a balm that contains sunscreen, like Softlips Raspberry with Green Tea SPF 20. "Dab some on immediately after getting out of the shower, when your lips are still a little moist," suggests Hollywood pro Kara Yoshimoto Bua. The smoother your lips, the more perfect your lipstick will look.

Soon she was performing regularly at the jam sessions called Black Lily in her hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She went to that city's performing arts high school and was signed to a contract by Jive Records, where she was paired with producers such as Timbaland and Cool & Dre.

Bush, the transitional figure who tried and failed to emulate the approach of the New Right, to George W. Bush, who embodied the new breed of tax-cutting, evangelical conservatism.

that the @placeholder are fed up with Westminster,' he told crowds. | With just two days until the historic vote on Scottish independence, campaigners on both sides are doing everything they can to drum up crucial last-minute support. But when a trio of celebrities egged-on crowds at an anti-independence campaign in London, critics were quick to question their motives - as none of the three speakers was Scottish. Bob Geldof, Eddie Izzard and Al Murray pleaded with a packed Trafalgar Square last night to remain part of the 307-year-old union at a Let's Stay Together rally. Twitter users were quick to express their bemusement, however, with one saying of Irish-born Geldof's involvement: 'I thought it was impossible for my mind to be anymore set.'

He said rape was not against the law in @placeholder until 2006. | (CNN) -- The president of Liberia spoke Friday on the sexual assault of an 8-year-old Liberian refugee in Phoenix, Arizona, decrying reports that the parents believe their family has been shamed by the girl.

It is the question of an assault on a young child. That cannot be tolerated," said President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, speaking by telephone. Police have charged four boys, ages 9 to 14, in the case. The boys also are Liberian refugees.

@placeholder runs on special carbon fiber blades, hence the nickname. | Nelspruit, South Africa (CNN) -- It's dawn. An international South African sports star bolts out of bed after hearing an "intruder." He takes out a gun and fires one shot, killing a young innocent woman. But this is not the case of Olympian Oscar Pistorius. In an eerily similar incident in May 2004, former Springbok rugby player Rudi Visagie was awoken by his wife, who heard a car in their driveway in Nelspruit, South Africa. The couple thought a robber was taking off with their daughter's car. Amid heightened fears following their neighbors' killings the week before, he broke a bedroom window and fired at the car, hitting the driver in the neck.

"The age of exploration will never be truly over -- the oceans, caves, @placeholder, so much of northern Canada -- it will take a long time to explore," he says. | (CNN) -- Canadian explorer Adam Shoalts knew he was heading into uncharted territory when he set out on a solo expedition to explore northeastern Canada's remote Again River. What the 27-year-old from Fenwick, Ontario, didn't expect was to find himself hurtling over a 20-foot waterfall that had never been documented -- and then go on to discover six more waterfalls after fixing his canoe. The nearly 100-kilometer long Again River is a tributary of Quebec's Harricanaw River, part of Canada's Hudson Bay Lowlands. It's one of the largest roadless areas on earth outside Antarctica, says Shoalts, containing rivers so remote that even today there are a few that have escaped accurate mapping -- including the Again.

@placeholder argued against the measure, saying their preference was a longer-term bill to provide funding that carries the department trough the Dept. | The Republican-controlled House has passed a one-week funding extension for Homeland Security after the majority refused to pass the legislation just hours before the deadline. Lawmakers were thrown into a race against time on Friday night when 52 Republicans defected on the leadership-backed legislation. The vote was 224-203 against the measure. Two hours before the midnight deadline, the House voted 357 to 60 to fund the department for another week. A combination of conservative, tea party-backed Republicans on one side of the political aisle and Democrats on the other opposed the bill. The first group was upset because the legislation had been stripped of changes to President Barack Obama's immigration policy, and the second because it lacked full-year funding for the sprawling department.

The shooter is set in a fictional North African town overrun by warlords and opposing militia forces. Players enter the fray as team members of Blackwater, the mercenaries-for-hire company that Prince founded in 1997.
