‘I thought it would be easier’: Trump assesses his first 100 days Posted: 28 Apr 2017 07:58 AM PDT On the cusp of his 100th day in office, President Trump went on a media blitz this week, granting interviews to a number of outlets reflecting on his first months in the nation's highest office. In addition to an interview with the Associated Press that attracted attention for all the "unintelligible" lines in the transcript, Trump spoke to the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal and Reuters about everything from his flip-flop on withdrawing from NAFTA to his surprise about the difficulties of his job. "I loved my previous life," Trump told Reuters. "I had so many things going. |

Detainees found in 'secret cell' in Philippines: rights group Posted: 27 Apr 2017 09:34 PM PDT A dozen people have been found stuffed inside a closet-sized cell hidden behind a book shelf in a Philippine police station, triggering further alarm about abuse under President Rodrigo Duterte's deadly war on drugs. Members of the government's human rights commission, accompanied by journalists, found the men and women in a surprise visit to the station in the heart of Manila's slum area on Thursday evening. |
Abbas turns screw on Hamas by cutting Gaza's electricity Posted: 27 Apr 2017 05:33 AM PDT By Nidal al-Mughrabi GAZA (Reuters) - With the prospect looming of a Middle East peace initiative by a new U.S. administration more sympathetic to Israel, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has decided to turn the screw on the Hamas group that has kept Gaza out of his control for a decade. Abbas's Western-backed Palestinian Authority (PA) on Thursday told Israel it would no longer pay for the electricity Israel supplies to Gaza, a move that could lead to a complete power shutdown in the territory, whose 2 million people already endure blackouts for much of the day. |

Andmesh’s cool elastomer cases are finally available for the iPhone 7 Plus Posted: 28 Apr 2017 12:44 PM PDT We've covered Andmesh's elastomer iPhone cases a few times before here on the site. They're like no other cases out there, both in terms of their design and the material they're made from. Elastomer is a cool rubbery substance that's harder than silicone but still flexible and grippy. The pattern is another unique aspect, with a cool design that spreads different sized holes across the back of the phone. It still covers your iPhone, but you can still see the Apple logo through the case. Andmesh makes its cases for a bunch of different iPhone models, but it hasn't ever made one for the iPhone 7 Plus… until now. If you're looking for a cool and original case that protects your phone as well, definitely give the Andmesh Elastomer iPhone 7 Plus Case a shot. Here are the highlights from the product page:

Late Boy's Family Wants April's Calf To Be Named After Him Posted: 28 Apr 2017 03:07 AM PDT |
Posted: 28 Apr 2017 02:17 AM PDT The argument that even an "immaterial" error on official paperwork can justify deportation, put forward by the Trump administration in a recent Supreme Court case, would be sufficient to deport the President's wife, Melania. The First Lady of the United States reportedly failed to disclose earnings from nearly two months of illegal work in the USA on a visitor's visa, and subsequently failed to mention the offence on immigration documents. A Serbian woman was recently deported for failing to disclose her husband's history in the military, thus setting a technical precedent for deporting Ms Trump, as Slate reports. |

"You are not only going to live, but you are going to get remarried one day — and I am going to be there to celebrate with you," she said. |

Venezuela snubs regional powers as more die in unrest Posted: 26 Apr 2017 07:19 PM PDT Venezuela says it is quitting the Organization of American States in anger at pressure from the bloc over the government's handling of a deadly political crisis. The announcement late Wednesday raised international tension over Venezuela, where unrest has left 28 people dead this month. Echoed by the United States and European Union, the OAS has led an international chorus of concern over the economic and political chaos in the major oil-exporting country. |
Russia's Putin, Japan's Abe call for talks, calm with North Korea Posted: 27 Apr 2017 10:06 AM PDT Russian President Vladimir Putin and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Thursday called on North Korea and other countries to avoid behaviour or rhetoric that could increase tensions around Pyongyang's nuclear programme. Speaking at a news conference in Moscow after holding talks, Putin and Abe said they had agreed to cooperate closely to try to help defuse tensions around the secretive Asian state and that both wanted to see a resumption of six-party international talks with North Korea. "In my opinion, and in the opinion of the prime minister, the situation on the Korean peninsula has unfortunately got a lot worse," said Putin. |

This 7-year-old girl wrote a letter to Google and got a tech job out of it Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:39 AM PDT How about this amazing little nugget to restore your faith in humanity: Chloe Bridgewater, a seven-year-old from Hereford, UK, is a big fan of technology and eventually wants to work for Google. Rather than wasting any time, she decided to send Google CEO Sundar Pichai a letter to let him know that she's planning on working there one day. She got two things in return: A lovely letter from Pichai encouraging her to follow her dreams, and a paid job testing tech products for a tech startup based in London. "Dear Google boss," Young Bridgewater's letter begins. "May name is Chloe and when I am bigger I would like a job with Google." She goes on to explain that she's also planning on swimming in the Olympics and working at a chocolate factory, because what kid doesn't dream of that? Her love of Google centers around its work culture, which includes kid-friendly bonuses like working from a bean bag or making your way from one floor of the company's headquarters to another via slide. After her father posted a photo of her letter online it quickly went viral, catching the attention of Kano, the built-it-yourself computer startup that crushed its crowdfunding goals back in late 2013 and has been shipping its kits ever since. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V0qlI28Usc Now, the 7-year-old and her younger sister, Hollie, help Kano test new products ahead of time, giving the company feedback on what works and what doesn't. The two girls were even added as board members of Kano's product innovation board. See? The world isn't all bad. |

We asked Trump voters what they think about his first 100 days – and if they have any regrets Posted: 27 Apr 2017 10:36 AM PDT Like the majority of people who sent Donald Trump to the White House, Lorraine Ostrowski has no regrets. While Mr Trump's national approval rating is lower than that of any modern president, a recent Washington Post-ABC News survey found that among those who voted for him, just 2 per cent said they had made a mistake. Indeed, despite controversies ranging from Mr Trump's Muslim travel ban, his campaign's alleged links to Russia and the apparently often chaotic nature of his administration, when The Independent visited Macomb County, it found not a single Trump voter who wished for a do-over. |
French tourist attacked by shark in New Zealand Posted: 26 Apr 2017 11:26 PM PDT A French tourist survived a rare shark attack in New Zealand on Thursday, suffering only moderate injuries, rescuers and locals said. The woman, aged in her 20s, was bodyboarding in the afternoon at Curio Bay in the South Island when the shark attacked her leg, St John Ambulance said. Nick Smart, who runs the Caitlin Surf School, said the woman was in the water with friends when the shark attacked "out of nowhere". |
Mystery deaths in Liberia linked to funeral - WHO Posted: 28 Apr 2017 05:18 AM PDT By Stephanie Nebehay GENEVA (Reuters) - Nine people have died and eight are sick in Liberia after attending the funeral of a religious leader, the World Health Organisation (WHO) said on Friday. On Wednesday, the WHO said Liberian health authorities were taking rapid precautionary steps after eight people died of a mystery illness, 10 months after the end of a two-year Ebola virus outbreak. "It seems all of these people were attending the funeral of a religious leader," WHO spokeswoman Fadela Chaib told a briefing in Geneva. |
1992 ‘Rodney King riots' – A look back at L.A. in flames Posted: 28 Apr 2017 09:08 AM PDT The 1992 Los Angeles riots began on April 29, 1992, after the acquittal of four LAPD police officers on trial for the beating of motorist Rodney King. Video of his treatment after a March 3, 1991, traffic stop drew international attention. Civil unrest, which included violence and looting, broke out on the streets of Los Angeles. |
Tillerson urges U.N. to act 'before North Korea does' Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:34 AM PDT Secretary of State Rex Tillerson spoke at a special U.N. Security Council meeting and urged the council to place new sanctions on North Korea before the situation escalates to a military conflict. Tillerson said, "Failing to act now on the most pressing security issue in the world may bring catastrophic consequences." |

Bernie Sanders says it is 'likely' he would have beaten Donald Trump Posted: 27 Apr 2017 12:59 PM PDT Senator Bernie Sanders has said it is "likely" he would have beaten Donald Trump in the 2016 election, but that "it doesn't matter" now that Mr Trump is president. Trump understood that, by the way, and that's why he said, 'The whole system sucks. Mr Sanders has been an outspoken critic of the president's policy on the environment, healthcare, the economy, and a host of other issues. |
This may be Apple’s first brand new iOS device since 2015 Posted: 27 Apr 2017 10:14 AM PDT The rumors saying that Apple is working on a Siri-based Amazon Echo rival are back, with a noted insider saying that Apple is currently finalizing the design for the unnamed product.
"Apple is currently finalizing designs for their Alexa competitor, expected to be marketed as a Siri/AirPlay device," Sonny Dickson said on Twitter. https://twitter.com/SonnyDickson/status/857584682677829633 Dickson, who has a decent track record when leaking details about unreleased Apple products (especially iPhones) also said the upcoming Echo rival is "believed to carry some form of Beats technology, and is expected to run [an iOS variant]." The insider did not mention anything about an actual launch date for the product, or a price. Amazon's Echo is currently the most popular voice-based home assistant product out there. Earlier this week, Amazon unveiled a new Echo gadget, the Echo Look that comes with a built-in camera. Amazon's Alexa assistant, the AI brains of the Echo line of devices, is available in other non-Amazon devices as well, with more third-party companies interested in integrating the service into their products. https://twitter.com/SonnyDickson/status/857584905982693379 Google is looking to turn its Home device into an equally popular gadget, although Amazon's lead can't be contested for the time being. A Time report in February said that Apple had no interest in making a device that would compete against Amazon Echo and Google Home. However, given the increased popularity of these home devices, it wouldn't be surprising to see Apple come out with a competitive product that would offer Siri functionality at home. |

Russian intelligence ship sinks off Turkey's Black Sea coast Posted: 27 Apr 2017 09:19 AM PDT A Russian naval intelligence ship sank off Turkey's Black Sea coast on Thursday after colliding with a vessel carrying livestock and all 78 personnel on board the navy ship were evacuated, Turkish officials said. The rescued crew members of the Russian ship Liman were in good health after the collision with the Togo-flagged Youzarsif H, Turkey's Transport Minister Ahmed Arslan said. The incident took place in fog and low visibility 18 miles (29 km) from Kilyos village on the Black Sea coast just north of Istanbul. |
Sweden truck attack death toll rises to five Posted: 28 Apr 2017 04:06 AM PDT The death toll from the Stockholm truck attack rose to five on Friday after a 60-year-old Swedish woman succumbed to her injuries, police said. An Uzbek suspect has confessed to using a stolen truck to mow down pedestrians on a busy shopping street in central Stockholm on April 7 in a rampage similar to attacks in Nice, Berlin and London. Rakhmat Akilov, a 39-year-old Uzbek national who was arrested a few hours after the attack, has confessed to driving the truck. |

'Enormous progress' in U.S.-Mexico ties: Mexican foreign minister Posted: 27 Apr 2017 08:24 AM PDT Relations between the United States and Mexico have seen "enormous progress" during the first months of the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray said on Thursday. Videgaray said the call, which was initiated by Pena Nieto and lasted about 20 minutes, focused exclusively on the looming talks over NAFTA's "renegotiation and modernization." He noted that Trump wanted to see the talks accelerated. |
Please let this iPhone wireless charging feature actually exist Posted: 27 Apr 2017 12:16 PM PDT It may not happen with this year's iPhone 8, but Apple dreams of charging its future products with the help of conventional Wi-Fi routers or even other Apple products. The technology would not only offer a way for various devices to potentially be used as wireless chargers but would also fix the most annoying thing about wireless charging nowadays: You still have to place a device in the proximity of a charging mat or device.
Early iPhone 8 rumors suggested the iPhone will feature wireless charging powers unlike anything currently seen on mobile devices. That's long-range wireless charging support that would allow an iPhone owner to keep using a device while the battery would recharge wirelessly. Multiple reports have shot down that rumor, and more recent leaks do not mention anything about long-range support, although the iPhone 8 is still expected to feature wireless charging. The US Patent & Trademark Office, meanwhile, published on Thursday an Apple patent application titled Wireless Charging and Communications Systems With Dual-Frequency Patch Antennas that describes antenna technology that would support simultaneous wireless charging and Wi-Fi support on a device. First discovered by Apple Insider, the patent doesn't specifically mention the iPhone, iPad, or MacBook. And the drawings do not show anything resembling any of these devices. But the patent's wording indicates that the wireless charging technology described herein can apply to a variety of Apple gadgets, not just the iPhone. Apple's choice of words practically covers any device currently made by Apple, but also future gadgets that are yet to be unveiled:
What's interesting about this type of ambiguous language is that it also seem to indicate that Apple may be thinking about peer-to-peer wireless charging. For example, a MacBook connected to a power source might recharge an iPhone in the future. The technology might even allow iPhone owners to share battery power in the future. The patent explains that the devices may communicate wirelessly over Wi-Fi or cellular connection and that the same frequencies used for getting online or connecting to a carrier's network might also be used for wirelessly charging a battery or providing energy to a device. The patent describes dual-frequency dual-polarization patch antennas that "may be used in beam steering arrays" and which may be used for "wireless power transfer at microwave frequencies or other frequencies and may be used to support millimeter wave communications." What's interesting about these patch antennas is that they would be flat components placed over a flat metal surface inside a device. Earlier this week, a leaked iPhone 8 schematic showed what seemed to be the location of the phone's future wireless charging coil — see that big patch under the Apple logo in the image above? Again, there's nothing to suggest the iPhone 8 will sport such wireless charging tech. Even if the iPhone 8 would support it, you'd still need a second device to sport the same time of hardware so that long-range wireless charging would actually work. |
Can the Hennessey Exorcist drive out the Dodge Demon? Posted: 28 Apr 2017 02:28 AM PDT Texas tuner extraordinaire Hennessey Performance wants to give anyone considering snapping up the new Dodge Challenger SRT Demon cause for concern. At the New York International Auto Show, Dodge confounded expectations with an 840hp street-legal drag car called the Demon. Based on the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and set to be offered as either a full turnkey car or as a conversion for existing ZL1 owners, the Exorcist has a totally overhauled engine complete with ported cylinder heads, new valves, a new camshaft, a high-flow supercharger, plus new exhaust system. |
6 Hidden Gems in Utah's National Parks Posted: 28 Apr 2017 07:08 AM PDT Utah's Zion and Bryce Canyon national parks illustrate the diverse terrain and geological splendors of America's top national parks. "Millions of people visit Zion, but relatively few go exploring into the park's secret places," says Janice Holly Booth, author of the book "Only Pack What You Can Carry: My Path to Inner Strength, Confidence and True Self Knowledge," a book published by National Geographic. Instead of hiking on the popular trails with the masses and venturing to well-traversed parks like the iconic Arches National Park, immerse yourself in the backcountry and remote spots to enjoy seclusion and stunning scenery. |

Analysis: Finally, crystal-clear clarity in French election Posted: 27 Apr 2017 11:02 AM PDT PARIS (AP) — When France's presidential election turned into a political boxing match this week at the gates of an appliance factory threatened with closure, the far-right populist Marine Le Pen showed that she wields a mean right hook. Her centrist rival, Emmanuel Macron, a political neophyte contesting his first election, demonstrated that he can take a solid punch to the chin. |
