CNN took issue with President Trump calling a recent London terrorist attack a “terrorist attack,” in another example of how the fake news network ignores reality simply to disparage the president.

The Afghan went searching for a knife in the house of his cousin, also an asylum seeker, and stabbed the two men in the head and neck.

Witnesses said the bridge was hit by lightning seconds before it collapsed and was seen 'wobbling', but engineers rubbished the idea that a bolt from above had anything to do with the disaster.

'It couldn't have been lightning. I don't see how that would be possible as it's reinforced concrete and it's certainly never happened before,' Agathoklis Giaralis, deputy director of the University of London's Civil Engineering Structures Research Centre, told MailOnline.

He said the bridge, which was completed in 1967, must have been flawed in its construction, likely in the foundations, or suffered from extensive corrosion in its metallic parts.

A mother who was jailed in Dubai for drinking a glass of wine on a flight from Londonhas told for the first time the full story of her harrowing ordeal.
Dr Ellie Holman revealed how she was spat at, had her hair pulled and feared she would be raped while being held at a prison for three days. Since returning, she has been the target of smear stories and been trolled online, she said.

House prices in the UK are experiencing the lowest rate of growth for five years, the latest government figures show.

Italy's deputy prime minister has blamed the deadly collapse of a highway bridge on the European Union, even though officials have yet to establish the cause of the disaster.

Matteo Salvini, the leader of the eurosceptic Lega Nord party, suggested on Tuesday that EU fiscal rules had prevented Italy from spending on infrastructure safety.

Though not explicit, his suggestion was that this could have contributed to the disaster in Genoa, northern Italy.

Shares in Tesla have fallen 4% on reports that US regulators are seeking to question executives at the firm about its privatisation plans.

Fox News tweeted that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had sent subpoenas to the electric carmaker and was "ramping up" its investigation.

The man arrested on suspicion of terror offences after a car crashed outside the Houses of Parliament has been named as Salih Khater by government sources.

The 29-year-old British citizen, originally from Sudan, has also been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, Met Police said on Wednesday.

He came to the UK as a refugee and was granted asylum, the BBC understands.

Power has been restored to all of Puerto Rico for the first time since Hurricane Maria struck nearly 11 months ago, officials said Tuesday.

The island's electric utility announced that crews working in the southern city of Ponce reconnected the last neighborhood that had been offline since the Sept. 20 storm knocked out the U.S. territory's power grid.

Ponce resident Charlie Colon Nazario told El Nuevo Dia that he was looking forward to no longer having to use a generator to light his house.

"No more lamps, no more candles, no more extension cords," he said as about two dozen power workers completed the connection to his home.

A teacher faces being struck off after she was allegedly seen lying naked on top of a teenage pupil at her home.
Elizabeth Smillie was also seen kissing and holding hands with the same girl at one of Scotland's biggest family parks, the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) heard.

Friday, deep into the 17th year of America’s longest war, Taliban forces overran Ghazni, a provincial capital that sits on the highway from Kabul to Kandahar.

The ferocity of the Taliban offensive brought U.S. advisers along with U.S. air power, including a B-1 bomber, into the battle.

"As the casualty toll in Ghazni appeared to soar on Sunday," The Wall Street Journal reported, "hospitals were spilling over with dead bodies, corpses lay in Ghazni’s streets, and gunfire and shelling were preventing relatives from reaching cemeteries to bury their dead."

In the long history of Korea, nothing compares to the 20th century division of the peninsula or the war that followed. That war has not finished, and a peace treaty remains elusive. China, North Korea and South Korea all seek a peace treaty, but 11 U.S. presidents since 1953 have been unwilling to agree.

If President Trump turns out to be the exception, that shift could help put an end to more than a half-century of conflict — and the role of the United States in determining whether peace arrives is not a small one. Neither is it coincidental: in fact, the U.S. has played a key role in keeping the conflict going as long as it has.

American weapons makers have dominated the global arms trade for decades. In any given year, they’ve accounted for somewhere between one-third and more than one-half the value of all international weapons sales. It’s hard to imagine things getting much worse -- or better, if you happen to be an arms trader -- but they could, and soon, if a new Trump rule on firearms exports goes through.

But let’s hold off a moment on that and assess just how bad it’s gotten before even worse hits the fan. Until recently, the Trump administration had focused its arms sales policies on the promotion of big-ticket items like fighter planes, tanks, and missile defense systems around the world. Trump himself has loudly touted U.S. weapons systems just about every time he’s had the chance, whether amid insults to allies at the recent NATO summit or at a chummy White House meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, whose brutal war in Yemen is fueled by U.S.-supplied arms.

Scientists believe this is an entirely new species of mammoth that until now hasn't been proven to exist.

Scientists have discovered relics of Mammuthus exilis, or what they’re calling a “Golden mammoth”, named after the color of its seemingly strawberry blonde colored hair. The discovery of the carcass proves the existence of a miniature or “dwarf” species of woolly mammoth — something that’s never been seen by scientists before.

On July 30th, President Trump offered an olive branch to Iran by stating he would “certainly meet” with “no preconditions” with Dr. Hassan Rouhani if the Iranian President were willing to do so. The offer was welcome news considering his previous incredibly unfortunate Tweet in capital letters.

Some Americans consider the President’s invitation for talks polite and timely. They think foregoing this opportunity to begin negotiations for peace is a major mistake and is to the detriments of Iran, aside from the Middle East and the United States. As Iran Foreign Minister, Dr. Javad Zarif, stated, President Trump lacks honesty. As time passes, the President will find he looks a weak and spineless person>>>

Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement Representative in Iran Nasser Abu Sharif underlined that security has turned into a dream for the Zionists as Israel is begging to prolong its survival.
"Now, after the regional equations were changed by Iran, the Zionists are begging for their survival," Abu Sharif told reporters in the Northern city of Rasht on Tuesday.

He referred to Israel's failure during the 33-day war against Lebanon and against the Palestinians in Gaza, and said Iran blocked implementation of the Zionists' expansionist policies.

US payment systems Visa and MasterCard are no longer present on Russia's Crimean Peninsula. The republic’s largest bank has finished the procedure of switching all plastic cards to Russia’s Mir payment system.

The US will more than double the number of Marines stationed in Norway, in line with plans first outlined in June, the Norwegian Defense Ministry said on Wednesday. Moscow has described as “clearly unfriendly” the plans to increase the number of Marines in Norway to 700 from 330 and move some of them closer to the border with Russia. The government in Oslo insists the increased US presence is only for training purposes, Reuters said.

South and North Korea fully restored their military communication line on the eastern part of the peninsula on Wednesday, according to the Defense Ministry in Seoul. The complete restoration of fax and phone connections was part of an agreement from June’s inter-Korean military talks, the first such meeting in more than a decade. The move is also part of efforts to enforce the Panmunjom Declaration, the ministry said, adding that it would help contribute to the two states’ efforts to dial down tensions and build trust, Yonhap reports.

Ankara has given a green light to Moscow’s proposal to switch to ruble-lira trade between the countries. Turkey also has similar plans for trade with China and other countries.

The VW Group has confirmed that it might have to recall up to 124,000 electric and hybrid cars produced in the last six years as they all contain a poisonous metal.

Production of a number of electrified models from VW, Audi and Porsche has halted since the high-toxic metal cadmium - which the National Cancer Institute says can increase the risk of lung cancer - was found in charger components.

Volkswagen officials maintain that the metal is securely housed within the high-voltage battery chargers and won't cause harm to owners, though there are concerns about increased exposure if the cars are recycled or scrapped.

The report will fuel fears over the health of private section pensions and the millions of savers who will rely on them in retirement. Experts fear companies are more concerned with distributing cash to shareholders than safeguarding the future of their staff.

Russia: US Fails to Settle Int'l Conflicts

The United States, which all the way emphasizes its exclusiveness, has failed to cope with the role of the superman in settling international conflicts, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said while meeting participants in the international youth educational forum Baltartek.

She said many countries might have supported the concept of the United States’ exclusiveness, if only Washington was able to really bring more stability into this world, enhance security, make peace between countries, eliminate conflicts and prevent more ones, TASS reported.

"Who would’ve been against? It’s tremendous political, financial and moral responsibility," Zakharova said. "To be the superman who flies to the rescue, provides help and flies away."

"For some reasons the United States has failed to cope with this role,"

she said.

Official figures show the death toll has jumped by a fifth in the space of a week as aid workers work round-the-clock to control the situation.

Virologists have already warned the situation is ‘hard to control’ because the cases are in a conflict zone, roamed by armed militias. This means those infected could be displaced into refugee camps, where they could easily spread the virus.

In a desperate attempt to stem the outbreak, the World Health Organization's chief yesterday called for an end to the fighting in the DRC.

Israel Is 'Becoming a Full-Blown Police State,' Reza Aslan Says After Interrogation at Border
***
The Shin Bet lady, who already knew everything about me and my family’s journey around the world, began with “You think because you’re a public person I can’t do whatever I want with you?” I was floored. This is how interrogations begin in police states.

“Why do you hate Israel?” She asked. “I don’t hate Israel,” I replied. “But you hate our Prime Minister.” “I’m sorry is your Prime Minister Israel?” “He was democratically elected!” (No he wasn’t but let’s just drop that) “So was Trump and I hate him and still love America.”

“Oh I know all about you and Trump,” she spat. I forgot the Israeli Right Wing’s affection for our racist Neo-Nazi loving president. “You don’t think Israel should exist yes?” That’s absurd. I’m against the occupation not Israel. Then the police state part began in earnest.

Most apps can't access protected files, but this is not the case with many pre-installed apps, which often have privileged access to the Android operating system.

Because there are so many manufacturers making hardware for Google's operating system, it's hard for the company and researchers to keep tabs on all pre-installed apps.

Many firms make sure that any apps that come pre-installed are as secure as possible, but that is not always the case.

An international team initially identified a type of attack dubbed Foreshadow that would allow hackers to steal information from a computer’s memory, including files, pictures, and passwords.

After researchers notified Intel of the issue earlier this year, the firm identified two more related variants that could have even more ‘devastating’ consequences, allowing attackers to access information stored on a third-party cloud.

Intel says its commonly used Core and Xeon processors were among the products that were affected, putting both personal computer users and data centers at risk.

...

Intel says it began rolling out updates to the operating system and hypervisor software today to address the flaws, along with updates released earlier this year that are an ‘important component of the mitigation strategy,’ for all three iterations.

It’s been over two weeks since NASA revealed that the massive dust storm battering Mars since May has finally begun to die down.

But despite the clearing skies, there’s still been no word from the Opportunity rover.

Opportunity fell silent back in June, with no way to power its solar battery as dust continued to block out the sun.

Engineers involved with the mission were at first hopeful that the robotic Mars explorer would wake back up once the storm abated – but, after more than 60 days of silence, they now admit morale is ‘shaky.’

Dr Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University of California at Berkeley, this week told The Washington Post that belonging to a higher social class predicts increased unethical behaviour.

He said: 'To researchers who study wealth and power, it's dismaying but not surprising, because it tracks so closely with our findings.

'The effect of power is sadly one of the most reliable laws of human behaviour.'

A photograph taken of the bridge in Genoa, Italy, which collapsed yesterday, killing at least 39 people shows the dilapidated state of the overpass just weeks before the tragedy.

“We subpoenaed, and reviewed, half a million pages of internal diocesan documents. They contained credible allegations against over three hundred predator priests. Over one thousand child victims were identifiable, from the church's own records. We believe that the real number of children whose records were lost, or who were afraid ever to come forward is in the thousands.

Most of the victims were boys; but there were girls too. Some were teens; many were pre-pubescent. Some were manipulated with alcohol or pornography. Some were made to masturbate their assailants, or were groped by them. Some were raped orally, some vaginally, some anally. But all of them were brushed aside, in every part of the state, by church leaders who preferred to protect the abusers and their institution above all.” ~ Introduction: Grand Jury report released by PA AG Josh Shapiro after two years’ investigation

This report covers three connected topics:

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said in a telegram to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un that he is ready to meet with him in the near future to discuss “urgent” regional issues and bilateral ties, according to the text of the message published by the Korean Central News Agency on Wednesday.

Putin’s invitation to hold talks came as part of a message to Kim Jong-un congratulating the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on the 73rd anniversary of Korea’s liberation from Japanese occupation.

“I affirm that I am ready to meet you at an early date to discuss urgent issues of bilateral relations and important matters of the region,” Putin said in the message.
