EU rejects Myanmar’s diplomatic role and says it still doesn't recognize generals

The European Union’s top diplomat has expressed opposition to Myanmar’s upcoming role as overseer of relations between the 27-nation bloc and Southeast Asian nations and reasserted its non-recognition of the strife-torn nation’s military government JAKARTA, Indonesia -- The European Union’s top diplomat on Thursday expressed opposition to Myanmar’s upcoming role as the overseer of relations between the 27-nation bloc and Southeast Asian nations and reasserted its non-recognition of the strife-torn country's military government. The comments marked the latest diplomatic fallout from the Myanmar army’s forcible seizure of power from Aung San Suu Kyi’s elected government on Feb. 1, 2021 that plunged the country into deadly chaos. Josep Borrell, the EU’s high representative for foreign affairs, raised the concern in a meeting with foreign ministers of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta. The 10-nation ASEAN includes Myanmar and Indonesia, which...

Demolition of Idaho murders home paused amid discovery of asbestos and lead, objections from families

Image
Plans to demolish the house where four Idaho college students were slain have been halted til October. Asbestos and lead -- in addition to objections from some of the victims’ families -- have delayed the process of tearing down the Idaho home where four college students were stabbed to death last fall. The University of Idaho announced the sudden halt to the high-profile demolition Wednesday, saying it would pause plans for the house until October, which is also when the trial for Bryan Kohberger, the man accused in the murders of Ethan Chapin, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20, and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, is set to start. “While we look forward to removing this grim reminder of this tragedy, we feel holding until October is the right thing to do,” University President Scott Green said in a statement, acknowledging “every action and decision around this horrific incident is painful and invokes emotions.” He also noted “every decision we have made” has been “with the families of t...

Eric Abril, who escaped from a Northern California medical facility on Sunday, has been captured, according to authorities. A murder suspect who escaped from a Northern California medical facility on Sunday has been captured following a massive manhunt, authorities said.

‘Insidious 5’ topples 'Indiana Jones' before ‘Mission: Impossible’ launches

Indiana Jones’ reign atop the box office was short-lived Indiana Jones’ reign atop the box office was short-lived. In its second weekend in theaters, the Disney release was usurped by another franchise fifth – “ Insidious: The Red Door.” The horror film starring and directed by Patrick Wilson scared up $32.7 million in ticket sales from 3,188 theaters, according to studio estimates on Sunday. It did better than the last installment, “Insidious: The Last Key,” from 2018 and is the most any PG-13 horror movie has earned in its debut in the past two years. “Insidious 5” was not well reviewed — but modestly budgeted scary movies are often critic-proof when it comes to the box office. This Blumhouse-produced franchise starring Wilson and Rose Byrne began in 2011 under the direction of James Wan and has been responsible for over $570 million in global box office returns — and none of the films have cost more than $16 million to produce. Only the first movie received a “fresh” rating on Rotte...

Meta to launch Twitter-like app Threads

Meta Platforms plans to launch a microblogging app, Threads, days after Twitter executive chair Elon Musk announced a temporary cap on how many posts users can read on the social media site. Threads, Instagram's text-based conversation app, is expected to be released on Thursday and will allow users to follow the accounts they follow on the photo-sharing platform and keep the same username, a listing on Apple's App Store showed. The launch comes after Twitter announced a slate of restrictions on the app, including the need to be verified in order to use TweetDeck. Musk's latest announcements to address data scraping have sparked a fierce backlash from Twitter users and ad experts said it would undermine new CEO Linda Yaccarino, who started in the role last month. Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on a similar launch on the Google Play Store. Source: https://thefoxposts.com/meta-to-launch-twitter-like-app-threads-The...

Sir Jim Ratcliffe reveals first impressions of Glazer family

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has admitted he found the Glazer family ‘charming’ when he first made contact over a Manchester United takeover, but equally revealed the biggest difficulty in negotiations. Ratcliffe is a leading contender alongside Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani to buy the club from the American family , who have held control at Old Trafford since late patriarch Malcolm Glazer completed a controversial leverage buyout. Although Joel and Avram Glazer serve as co-chairmen, four other Glazers (Kevin, Bryan, Darcie and Edward) own shares and sit on the board as non-executive directors. “We went to see them and they were charming,” Ratcliffe explained in a new book, from which extracts have been published by The Times . “They are all very nice, despite the press they get,” he added, specifically noting the ‘hospitality’. “But the club is owned equally by siblings and you can’t talk to that many siblings, really.” Amid growing fan press ure on the Glazers, Ratcliffe’s desire to bid for...

New Jersey governor considers 5-year extension of internet gambling

A bill to extend internet gambling in New Jersey for another five years is in the hands of Gov. Phil Murphy following its approval by the state Legislature TRENTON, N.J. -- A bill to extend internet gambling in New Jersey for another five years is in the hands of Gov. Phil Murphy, following its approval Friday by the state Legislature. The measure was approved by the state Assembly and Senate with minimal opposition from lawmakers, and now goes to the Democratic governor for action. But the approval did little to dispel the mystery surrounding unexpected and unannounced changes made to the bill earlier this week that have rankled the Atlantic City casino industry. Internet gambling began in New Jersey 10 years ago. The original renewal bill would have extended it for another 10 years. But on Tuesday, an Assembly panel cut that to just two years without discussing or even announcing the change. Since then, lawmakers have repeatedly declined to say why the extension was shortened.
