Sean Hannity, the eight-figure archetype of selective moral outrage, last night charged the press with going “completely insane” over the James Comey firing.

Air Arabia has renewed plans that were put on hold after a dip in demand to expand its fleet, with the biggest discount carrier in the Gulf and North Africa encouraged by rebounding sales at its Moroccan unit. The airline, an Airbus SE A320 operator, could reach a decision on new jets as early as this year or into 2018, Chief Executive Officer Adel Ali said in […]

The Indian government issued an ordinance at the end of last week laying out some new powers for the Reserve Bank of India, powers which are aimed at chipping away at the country’s mammoth and thoroughly discussed bad loan problem. Here’s CreditSights with a brief explanation: In essence, two additional sections ­35AA and 35AB ­ were introduced into the Banking Regulation Act. 35AA will allow the government […]

MANNHEIM, Germany SAP (SAPG.DE) said on Wednesday its executive pay system was reasonable, defending management bonuses against the criticism of some shareholders. “Our executive payment must be seen in comparison with other software companies and must be competitive,” SAP’s co-founder and supervisory board Chairman Hasso Plattner told the company’s annual shareholders’ meeting. “We think we have a reasonable system,” he added. Leading shareholder advisors have called on […]

Doomed children gasp their last breaths in the back of a truck filled with lifeless bodies that could have been their playmates hours ago. Volunteers sprint back and forth in an attempt to salvage the remaining lives. And a camera witnesses it all, capturing video that the public won’t see for more than a month. That was the scene shown Tuesday, when CNN showed horrific footage of […]

The verdict is out and it disappointed those seeking prompt disqualification of the prime minister under articles 62 and 63 of the Constitution. The court has spoken even if the judgement was not unanimous but as the CJP himself puts it, “Dissenting verdicts are given everywhere in the world but nowhere are they discussed as much as in Pakistan.” A judge can’t have any preferred outcome in […]

The Nintendo Switch version of Minecraft is set to be released on May 11, expanding the number of platforms where the popular block building game is playable. Minecraft‘s launch to the Nintendo Switch is largely expected to draw the same success as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Both games were released for the Nintendo Wii U, which was considered a failure especially compared to its predecessor, the Nintendo Wii. […]

Since its publication in 2009, Dutch author Herman Koch’s novel The Dinner has become an international bestseller, published in more than 50 countries. The Amsterdam-set story has spawned three film adaptations in the past four years: a Dutch offering by Menno Meyjes (2013), an Italian version by Ivano de Matteo (2014), and now director Oren Moverman has shifted the setting to the United States. “It poses an […]

It took Richard Nixon five months to fire the man investigating him. It took Donald Trump less than four. The difference is that Mr Nixon did little to conceal his motive — to save his presidency. Mr Trump, on the other hand, says he fired James Comey for having mishandled last year’s email investigation into Hillary Clinton. Even by Mr Trump’s standards, this stretches credulity. Mr Trump […]

Authored by Mike Krieger via Liberty Blitzkrieg blog, I’m fairly certain very few of you have heard of broker price opinions, or BPOs, but it’s something I think we should all become aware of given the influence of BPOs in the market for valuing residential real estate securitized bonds. Before we get to that, let’s revisit a little contemporary American robber baron history. In the immediate aftermath of the […]

By Sue-Lin Wong | HUNCHUN, China HUNCHUN, China In August, 2014, planners in the northeastern Chinese city of Hunchun argued in state media that it should be included in the “One Belt, One Road” project, Beijing’s vision laid out the previous year of a new Silk Road across Asia to Europe. In 2015, the official Xinhua news agency ran stories about how Hunchun was accelerating its “OBOR” […]

By Steve Holland and Jeff Mason | WASHINGTON WASHINGTON U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday abruptly fired FBI Director James Comey in the fallout over Comey’s probe of Democrat Hillary Clinton’s emails last year, saying Comey was no longer able to effectively lead the law enforcement agency. Comey had been leading an FBI investigation into allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and possible […]

On a cold, rainy day at the end of April, more than 30 people gathered at a co-working space in Charlotte, North Carolina for a public conversation about the future of news in the state. Five days later, more than 50 people got together for a similar conversation at a jazz club in downtown Durham. At both events, attendees — which included local journalists and community activists […]

Donald Trump’s promise of the biggest tax reforms since the Reagan era has cast minds back to the go-go years of postwar Manhattan, when cocktail glasses brimmed, steaks bulged and meal bills soared. The generous treatment of business meal expenses fuelled a phenomenon called the “three martini lunch”. As good for networking as it was bad for afternoon acuity, the more money diners spent on liquor, the […]

There are two types of brunch in this city. The first, a casual get-together that involves a near-unlimited food and drinks from a high-end restaurant. Much merriment will be had by guests who attend, and it provides the venue with an excellent platform to serve a generous selection of dishes that showcases the best it has to offer. The second type, however, is not so much a […]

Mouthwatering images of toast smeared with rainbow-hued cream cheese, topped with picturesque sprinkles, fresh flowers and star-shaped strawberries, are what you might find if you search Instagram for “mermaid toast”, the latest pretty-food trend to hit the web. Pretty food – it’s a thing. You may be surprised to learn that food bloggers put just as much, if not more, effort into their food posts as fashion […]

Members of President Donald Trump’s cabinet have a new catchphrase for how they see the future role of the US: not just “energy-independent”, but “energy-dominant”. As Ryan Zinke, the interior secretary, put it at an industry conference in Houston last week: “Dominance is what America needs.” It would be tempting to dismiss that talk as hype, except that every week the US energy sector is coming up […]

The news has been abuzz lately with a forex (foreign exchange market) investment company based in Penang. The company has around 400,000 investors/members, and they have all not received their promised dividends recently. Worse still, they were all denied access when they tried to log into their accounts on the website. Even when they tried going to the offices, they could not get answers because the offices were CLOSED!!! […]

Feathery clouds hang above a stretch of aquamarine water, bordered by a hilly island landscape speckled with pastel-coloured houses. There’s a cruise ship, some yachts, a couple of chase boats and some sailboats – but not the typical kind, with soft fabric sails fluttering in the wind. These are professional racing sailboats, with statuesque sails that sport the logos of luxury brands. They are riding the waves […]

Google’s OSS-Fuzz bug-hunting robot has been hard at work, and in recent months, over 1,000 bugs have been exposed. According to Chrome Security engineers Oliver Chang and Abhishek Arya, software engineer Kostya Serebryany and Google Security program manager Josh Armour, the OSS-Fuzz bot has been scouring the web over the past five months in the pursuit of security vulnerabilities which can be exploited. The OSS-Fuzz bot uses […]

This story was originally co-published by ProPublica and IRE Journal. It’s a great time to be an investigative journalist. Sure, no president has done more to demonize media than President Trump. But nor has anybody done more to boost our standing than Trump. Millions of Americans have put their faith in us. A few weeks after the election, a friend of mine, pondering the reality of one-party […]

Authored by Jeff Thomas via InternationalMan.com, Recently, I published the comment that, when the present debt bubble eventually pops, “governments will lose the economic power to continue their advance against economic freedom.” The immediate reaction from one reader was, “What could we expect next?… The governments and Deep State aren’t going to ‘just go away.’” An excellent question—one which deserves an answer. We won’t need a crystal […]
