UAE wants international monitoring of Qatar Posted: 16 Jul 2017 05:04 PM PDT A senior United Arab Emirates (UAE) official said international monitoring was needed in the standoff between Qatar and its Arab neighbors, adding he saw signs that the pressure exerted on Doha "was working".

US citizen accused of 'infiltration' sentenced to 10 years: Iran judiciary Posted: 16 Jul 2017 07:53 AM PDT A United States citizen accused of "infiltration" in Iran has been sentenced to 10 years in prison, a spokesman for the judiciary said on Sunday.

See the New Trillion-Ton Antarctic Iceberg in Image from Space Posted: 17 Jul 2017 07:06 AM PDT This baby's a behemoth: At approximately 2,200 square miles (5,800 square kilometers), the iceberg represents about 10 percent of the Larsen C ice shelf, which it was a part of until it broke off this week. The 'berg is slightly bigger than Delaware in area and similarly proportioned: While the Blue Hen State is 96 miles (154 km) long, the Larsen C iceberg measures about 99 miles (159 km) from end to end, meaning it would take a little over an hour and a half to traverse it by car, assuming you had a car that could manage 60 mph (nearly 100 km/h) on uneven, floating sea ice. An instrument aboard NASA's Aqua satellite snapped one of the first images of this new iceberg on July 12, 2017, using thermal measurements to distinguish between ice and open water. |

Muslims heed calls to avoid holy site over Israeli security steps Posted: 17 Jul 2017 12:05 PM PDT Muslims heeded calls Monday not to enter a Jerusalem holy site and protested outside after Israeli authorities installed metal detectors at entrances to the ultra-sensitive compound following an attack that killed two policemen. The compound was largely empty apart from tourists and Jewish visitors, with Muslims again praying and protesting outside the site instead of entering through the metal detectors. The Haram al-Sharif compound, known to Jews as the Temple Mount, includes the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa mosque. |

Surrendering to fear brought us climate change denial and President Trump | John Abraham Posted: 17 Jul 2017 03:00 AM PDT Then, I discussed some of the political realities associated with inaction on climate change. In that post, I said I would revisit the question of why so many people deny the evidence of a changing climate. What continually befuddles people who work on climate change is the vehement and indefensible denial of evidence by a small segment of the population. |

Canada fires drive thousands more out of their homes Posted: 16 Jul 2017 08:23 PM PDT Thousands of people fled their homes in western Canada over the weekend as strong winds fanned forest fires that have ravaged British Columbia province for more than a week. The inferno's progress prompted authorities to take new emergency measures, ordering the evacuation of 24,000 people in the region including the town of Williams Lake which is home to some 11,000 people, reported public broadcaster CBC. The province's transport minister, Todd Stone, told a news conference Sunday that between 36,000 and 37,000 people have so far been forced from their homes since the wild fires sparked by hot dry weather prompted a state of emergency to be declared on July 7. |
Leak: This is what the Pixel 2 XL might look like Posted: 17 Jul 2017 10:16 AM PDT Google will launch two Pixel models this year, according to multiple independent reports, including one that's going to look like the original Pixel and one that will embrace the full-screen design that's in fashion this year. HTC will reportedly make the Pixel 2 based on the iPhone-like Pixel design it used last year, while LG has been tasked with creating the Pixel 2 XL, which will look a lot like the LG G6 and the Galaxy S8 when it comes to screen size. A few days ago, we saw the first render from a trustworthy source that showed us what the Pixel 2 XL might look like. Based on that image, YouTube channel Concept Creator made the short video at the end of this post. The Pixel 2 XL should have minimal side bezels and smaller top and bottom bezels as well, if all the leaks are accurate. The back is still made of glass and metal, but the glass part is slightly smaller and doesn't include the rear-facing fingerprint sensor as is the case with previous Pixels. As for the camera, we're looking at a single-lens camera on the back instead of the dual-lens configuration most flagship phones have this year. The video shows the Pixel 2 XL in various colors, likely based on the rumor that said Google is considering a few crazy color options for the 2017 Pixel models. These rumors haven't yet been confirmed, but they certainly sound appealing. Google should unveil the new 2017 Pixel handsets in late September or early October, although nothing is official at this point in time. If this is the real design of the Pixel 2 XL, it's likely that we'll see it in more leaks down the road, including actual pictures of the handset as we get closer to release. In the meantime, enjoy the following concept clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3TNtuREToQ |

Row over Netanyahu invite to Paris Vel d'Hiv ceremony Posted: 15 Jul 2017 06:27 PM PDT Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be in Paris Sunday to mark the 75th anniversary of a notorious roundup of thousands of Jews, an invitation that has angered his critics. Sunday's ceremony marks the day in 1942 that officials of the Vichy regime in Nazi-occupied France, began rounding up more than 13,000 Jews in the Velodrome d'Hiver, an indoor cycle track in Paris. Netanyahu arrives just after a surge of violence in Israel, where a gun attack by three Arab Israelis in Jerusalem's Old City Friday left two Israeli police officers and the attackers dead. |

Honda has radically redesigned the Accord for 2018 Posted: 17 Jul 2017 03:04 AM PDT Honda might have discontinued the Accord in some markets over the last year or two, but it's still a big success in other places such as the United States where it's currently the biggest-selling model in the midsize sedan segment of the market. It's therefore a pretty big deal when such a successful model undergoes a major restyle, and Honda has probably gone a little further with its recently unveiled 2018 Accord than some commentators may have expected. The all-new tenth-generation Honda Accord was recently revealed at an event in Detroit, the spiritual home of the US auto industry. |

Israel opposes Syria truce deal over Iran presence: official Posted: 17 Jul 2017 12:02 PM PDT Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes the southwest Syria ceasefire agreed by Russia and the US since it would enable Iran to solidify its presence there, an official said Monday. The July 9 accord creating a de-escalation zone in the Daraa, Quneitra and Sweida regions includes areas that have seen Israel retaliate over stray fire into the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights from clashes between Syrian regime forces and rebels. Israel has also conducted several air strikes elsewhere in Syria since the civil war there erupted in 2011. |

The move brings total approvals to four after the government last month gave the go-ahead to Dow Chemical Co's Enlist corn and Monsanto's Vistive Gold soybeans. |
