NEW YORK My very first serious job was as a fact checker for Forbes magazine (now mostly a laissez faire collection of blogs). I consider fact checkers to be the altar boys of journalism.

The company said in a statement on its website it will start using updated machine learning to detect possible hoaxes and send them to fact checkers, potentially showing fact checking results under the original article.

Even reputable fact checkers disagree on the origin of the famous admonition to journalists Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable! (They even disagree on whether it was first directed at preachers or at newsmen).

This is the bar of the backgammon board. Checkers that have been kicked from the board are put on the bar and remain there until they can be put back on the board. Checkers can be moved by dragging them to their destination or by using the'short move 'feature. If the cube has not been doubled yet and if it can be used, its face shows 64 and if the cube can be doubled, double clicking it will do so.

In addition to seeing which stories are disputed by third party fact checkers, people want more context to make informed decisions about what they read and share, said Sara Su, Facebook news feed product manager, in a blog.

This part of the backgammon board is the home. Depending on the direction of the game, one of the homes contains the dice and the other one contains checkers that have been moved off the board. Checkers can never be moved away from the home. If this home contains the dice and the current state of the game permits this, double clicking on the dice will roll them. Moreover, the cube might be placed on the home bar and if it can be doubled, double clicking it will do so.

This is a regular field of the backgammon board. Checkers can be placed on this field and if the current state of the game and the dice permit this, they can be moved by dragging them to their destination or by using the'short move 'feature.

The most recent example of this dialogue of the deaf occurred in Europe, from January to July 2015. Month after month, the Greek government and its eurozone partners sat at the board, one side thinking the game was checkers and the other thinking it was chess.
