By Idrees Ali | WASHINGTON WASHINGTON China, in an early test of U.S. President Donald Trump, is nearly finished building almost two dozen structures on artificial islands in the South China Sea that appear designed to house long-range surface-to-air missiles, two U.S. officials told Reuters. The development is likely to raise questions about whether and how the United States will respond, given its vows to take a […]

LONDON Average life expectancy will rise in many countries by 2030, breaking through 90 years in some places, and policymakers need to make more efforts to plan for it, according to a large international study. South Koreans are likely to have the highest life expectancy in the world by 2030 and the United States one of the lowest among developed countries, the study showed. “The fact that […]

OTTAWA Canada will continue to accept asylum seekers crossing illegally from the United States but will ensure security measures are taken to keep Canadians safe, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday.

Verizon has announced that it will buy Yahoo’s core business after all, but at a $350 million discount since the internet company had two massive cyberattacks. The Verizon-Yahoo deal has been in the cards for a good while now and the companies have been negotiating the terms of the agreement. After two massive Yahoo data breaches came to light last year, however, the deal was not that […]

My taxi driver in San Diego had a plan. He was moving to Laredo to get back into long-distance trucking. He’d work hard for 10 years, save a couple of hundred grand, and retire to Mexico. I did the math: that put him around 2028. He might just make it before all the trucking jobs go away. At Qualcomm last week, Cristiano Amon, president of […]

Whatever route the government chooses for Brexit it will need to cooperate with other countries, especially our EU neighbours, to combat tax avoidance, tax evasion and money laundering. Yet the signs are not very good as the government seems to have chosen non-cooperation. It has snubbed the EU inquiry into the Panama Papers. Last year, a leak of 11.5m documents and 2.6 terabytes of information from the […]

Pokémon GO is apparently working wonders for some players, as it allows them to hatch eggs without actually walking all that distance. Hatching eggs in Pokémon GO can yield new Pokémon, but it’s not normally done so easily. Players have to place eggs in incubators and, depending on the type of egg, walk 2, 5, or 10 kilometers or up to 6 miles to hatch them. This means that […]

Ann Ravel on Sunday fulfilled her promise to quit the Federal Election Commission by May. In doing so, Ravel — who directed her resignation letter at President Donald Trump and including unsolicited advice for new president — leaves behind an agency the outspoken Democratic commissioner says she at once considers “essential” to American democracy and as useful, in its current state, as “men’s nipples.” But Ravel tells […]

Trespass Against Us is something of a departure for Adam Smith, a director best known for his work on music videos and stage shows for electronic act The Chemical Brothers, and the cult British TV teen drama Skins. For his big-screen debut, he has abandoned his pop-music roots in favour of an ultra-realistic study of life in a community of travellers in Gloucestershire, England. “I wanted to […]

By Drazen Jorgic | MALAM JABBA, Pakistan MALAM JABBA, Pakistan Atop the piste of Malam Jabba in Pakistan’s once dangerous Swat Valley skiers schuss downhill, a new Chinese-built chairlift ferries tourists to the peak, and a luxury hotel is under construction to replace one torched by the Taliban.

Samsung’s standing in the United States plummeted by 42 places, a new reputation poll reveals. Considering how the whole Galaxy Note 7 fiasco — among other things — stirred up the tech world for both consumers and manufacturers alike, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that the South Korean brand is taking quite a hit regarding its position in the market.

Submitted by David Stockman via The Ron Paul Institute for Peace & Prosperity, General Flynn’s tenure in the White House was only slightly longer than that of President-elect William Henry Harrison in 1841.  Actually, with just 24 days in the White House, General Flynn’s tenure fell a tad short of old “Tippecanoe and Tyler Too”.  General Harrison actually lasted 31 days before getting felled by pneumonia. And the circumstances were considerably more benign. It seems that […]

When I heard that Donald Trump had branded journalists as “an enemy of the American people,” I had a flashback. It was early in the 1980s, and I was running one of Poynter’s first seminars on media ethics. One evening, with popcorn served, we had a showing of a movie, starring Steve McQueen, called “An Enemy of the People.” No wonder the line was familiar. The movie […]
