Waves of Missiles The Chinese military is launching "multiple waves" of missiles inland in China, following the Chinese Rocket Force's first test-fire of an intercontinental ballistic missile since 1980, just days ago. Beginning at about 6:50 a.m. local time, the waves of missiles were fired in Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai, and Xinjiang, about 1,200 miles from Taiwan. The Taiwanese Defense Ministry stated that it was "continuously monitoring relevant developments, and air defense forces have maintained a high level of vigilance and strengthened their alert." The ministry had earlier criticized the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for launching the ICBM into the Pacific with little notice to its neighbors, warning the international community that the CCP's renewed military activity was creating instability in the region. Last week, the ministry detected 29 aircraft joining Chinese warships for war games and another instance of 43 Chinese military aircraft operating around Taiwan, half of them moving through the Bashi Channel that separates Taiwan from the Philippines.

She was 89.
Smith captured a 21st-century audience with her roles in modern films, but her acting prowess began in 1952, when she was just 17. After making it onto Broadway, she caught the eye of legendary British actor Laurence Olivier, who invited her to join his new theater company. The two became friendly rivals for the next eight years.
Her skill in theater soon expanded into TV, with an initial focus on Shakespeare. At 35, she won her first Academy Award. Ten years later, she won her second. In total, Smith won five BAFTA awards, 4 Emmys, 3 Golden Globes, and a Tony award. Britain's Queen Elizabeth made her a dame—the female equivalent of ""Sir""—in 1990.
Not only did this actress approach her fame with classic British pragmatism, but she also incorporated her natural aging into the roles she played: mothers, aunts, and grandmothers. In an industry dominated by eternal youth, Smith reminded watchers of the relevancy and wisdom of the mature woman.
Maggie Smith captivated audiences and critics alike over a 70-plus year career. A skillful character actor, she was a true mistress of the craft thanks to her dedication, skill, and ingenuity. She will be sorely missed. | | | | | EPOCH TV | | | | | | OPINION | | | | | | EPOCH FUN | | |  | | | Did you know The Epoch Times prints the best U.S. broadsheet newspaper?
