Newspaper says it uncovered KFC's secret recipe
null

www.dailystar.com.lb
CHICAGO: Is the secret KFC recipe a secret no more? The newspaper sent a reporter to write a story about Corbin, Kentucky -- a small lakeside town where the first KFC chicken was served more than 75 years ago, and the hometown of KFC founder Harland Sanders. KFC heavily publicizes its secret recipe, insisting it's kept safely in a vault and transported in an armored truck. However, many recipes online claim to duplicate the KFC fried chicken taste. The newspaper said it tried out the recipe in its test kitchen and compared it to KFC Original Recipe Chicken. ...

Anti-burkini law in France would worsen tension -interior minister

www.dailystar.com.lb
A law banning the full-body "burkini" swimsuit in France would stoke tensions between communities and would be both unconstitutional and ineffective, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said in an interview published on Sunday. The issue has become politically charged at the start of party primaries ahead of next year's presidential election in France, with several leaders on the right and far-right calling for a law prohibiting the full-body swimming costume worn by some Muslim women. ...

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry arrived in Bangladesh Monday for talks with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on tackling local Islamist extremists following a wave of deadly attacks. Kerry is also expected to meet with civic and opposition leaders during the one-day visit, his first to the Muslim-majority nation reeling from an attack on a cafe that killed 22 people, mostly foreigners. Just hours before Kerry's arrival, Bangladesh police shot dead two suspected members of the local Jamayetul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) extremist group blamed for last month's cafe siege. ...

Hillary Clinton will paint her White House rival Donald Trump as the candidate of the far right Thursday, claiming "a radical fringe" has taken over the Republican Party. After releasing a hard-hitting ad that tethered Trump to the Ku Klux Klan, Clinton will use a speech in Reno, Nevada to argue he has brought racism to the political mainstream. As Trump strives to temper his hardline anti-immigrant message in a bid to halt collapsing poll numbers, Clinton's campaign has been at pains to remind voters of the New York tycoon's more controversial views. ...

A "strong signal" detected by a radio telescope in Russia that is scanning the heavens for signs of extraterrestrial life has stirred interest among the scientific community. The signal is from the direction of a HD164595, a star about 95 light-years from Earth. Experts say it is far too early to know what the signal means or where, precisely,it came from. Nick Suntzeff, a Texas A&M University astronomer told the online magazine Ars Technica that the 11 gigahertz signal was observed in part of the radio spectrum used by the military. ...

Bangladesh police said Sunday they were hunting more extremist leaders after shooting dead the suspected mastermind of a deadly cafe attack, on the eve of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry's first visit. Security forces stormed a militant hideout outside Dhaka Saturday, killing three suspected Islamists including the Bangladesh-born Canadian accused of organizing last month's attack that killed 22 people, mostly foreigners. Police say the homegrown JMB, which has pledged allegiance to ISIS, was behind the raid. They deny the presence of international extremist groups. Bangladesh police hailed Saturday's raid as a major blow to extremists in the Muslim-majority country, which has been reeling from the recent killings. A series of police raids on suspected militant hideouts have killed at least 24 extremists since the cafe attack. ...

Myanmar's army chief, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, reshuffled top posts Friday, promoting his intelligence chief and other officers leading efforts to present the military as a responsible partner in a democratic transition. Military intelligence chief Lieutenant General Mya Tun Oo was promoted to the joint chief of staff of the army, navy, and air force, the de-facto third most senior position and one seen as a stepping stone to becoming army chief. The promotion comes shortly after Min Aung Hlaing decided to stay on as army chief for the next five years, and appears aimed at consolidating his power base as he forges a delicate relationship with new government leader Aung San Suu Kyi. Min Aung Hlaing appointed eight other officers to new posts, including several regional commanders. ...

Egypt fungus-wheat ban fuels confusion

Egypt will no longer accept imported wheat containing any traces of the ergot fungus, the Agriculture Ministry said, sowing fresh confusion that has hampered shipments to the world's biggest buyer of the grain. "I want to reassure everyone that there's not a single grain contaminated with ergot has been allowed to enter Egypt up to this day," he said. Of about 15 cargoes of imported wheat that have arrived recently, two were contaminated with ergot and weren't allowed into the local market, he said. The committee's review of Egypt's wheat imports over the past 10 years determined that about 2 percent of the shipments contained ergot. The Agriculture Ministry's quarantine office rejected a shipment of 7,000 tons of Romanian wheat because of ergot levels, Atef Makram, chief executive officer of the cargo's supplier, Egyptian trading company Al-Wehda said Sunday by phone. ...

Yemen council head hails peace push, wants Saudis to 'feel pain'
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
The head of a Houthi-backed ruling council pledged readiness Monday to resume negotiations on ending Yemen's war but reserved the right to resist attacks by a Saudi-backed exiled government seeking to unseat it. U.N.-sponsored talks to try to end 18 months of fighting collapsed in failure this month and the Houthi movement and allied forces loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh resumed shelling attacks into Saudi Arabia, Yemen's large northern neighbour. The talks foundered after the Houthis and Saleh's General People's Congress (GPC) announced the formation of the 10-member governing council on Aug 6 ., The Houthis have held on, having made an alliance with Saleh, who enjoys the support of most of the military. Hadi's government has welcomed Kerry's ideas but said any plan must adhere to U.N. Security Council resolution 2216, which calls on the Houthis to withdraw from cities seized since 2014 . Sammad praised the central bank for its "mighty efforts" to create some economic stability. Despite meagre means, the central bank has continued to provide lines of credit guaranteeing imports and to pay the salaries of state employees, including troops in units that have fought on both sides. ...

Belgium arrests five suspects after crime lab blast

www.dailystar.com.lb
Belgian police have arrested five suspects after a blast Monday at the country's national crime lab just north of Brussels caused major damage but no casualties, prosecutors said. Van Wymersch said the crime lab, which gathers and analyses evidence, "was not chosen by chance; it is an important part of the justice department and deals with sensitive information in connection with several ongoing cases". She said witnesses reported hearing several explosions but it was not yet clear how these were caused. ...

S.Sudan ex-VP discharged from Khartoum hospital: aides
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
South Sudan's former rebel leader Riek Machar has been discharged from hospital in Khartoum after being treated for a swollen leg, his aides told AFP Friday. Machar was replaced by Taban Deng Gai as South Sudan's first vice president after hundreds of people died in Juba last month in clashes between Machar's forces and government troops. The Sudanese government Tuesday announced that Machar had arrived in Khartoum for "medical treatment," but did not elaborate. Another party aide, Sabiet Majok, said Machar had been discharged Friday morning. Ties between Khartoum and Juba have been strained since then amid allegations that Sudan backs Machar in the civil war that has killed tens of thousands of people and forced more than 2 million from their homes. ...

China wants successful G-20 but suspects West may derail agenda
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
China is hoping to cement its standing as a global power when it hosts leaders from the world's biggest economies this weekend, but suspects the West and its allies will try to deny Beijing what it sees as its rightful place on the international stage. State media has given great play to the idea that G-20 is for China to show leadership in shaping global governance rules and forging ahead with sustainable global growth, with the official People's Daily saying this could be one of the G-20's most fruitful ever get-togethers. A European official involved in trade issues with China expressed exasperation at China's attitude on protectionism. To be sure, China does want G-20 to go smoothly, said a third Western diplomat. Then there is Japan, a country with which China has been embroiled in disputes for much of the last decade over their wartime past and a spat over a group of uninhabited islands in the East China Sea. Last week, China's top diplomat called on Japan to be "constructive" at G-20, with the deeper fear in Beijing that Japan is angling to become involved in the South China Sea dispute as well, at the behest of its ally the United States. ...

The European Commission Monday insisted talks on a huge U.S. free trade deal were on track, rejecting German claims that irreconcilable differences had left the deal dead in the water. Schinas insisted that while the Commission, the EU's executive arm which conducts all bloc trade negotiations, wanted a deal, it would not come at any cost. Asked whether TTIP could go through without support from Germany, the EU's paymaster and largest economy, he said Juncker had won fresh backing for the negotiations from all bloc leaders at a summit in July. ...

U.S. Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte lost all four of his major sponsors Monday, including Speedo USA and Ralph Lauren Corp., following his apology for an "exaggerated" story about being robbed at gunpoint at the Rio Games. Within hours of the Games coming to a close Sunday night, swimwear-maker Speedo USA issued a statement saying it would drop Lochte as one of its endorsers, while luxury retailer Ralph Lauren said it would not be renewing its contract with the swimmer. Japanese mattress-maker Airweave, which last week had said it would stand by Lochte, Monday said it had decided it would not renew the endorsement, which had been made for the Rio 2016 Olympic games. Lochte said in an email that he respected Speedo's decision. Lochte, 32, won one gold medal at the Rio Olympics. ...

London financial groups look to Dublin
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
Ireland says the Brexit vote has led to a jump in enquiries from London firms considering opening offices in Dublin, one of a handful of European cities trying to draw business away from Britain's financial center. Irish officials say they have had more than 35 concrete enquiries from financial groups looking at setting up a base or expanding in Ireland, which is recovering after near bankruptcy in the financial crash. EU member Ireland's tax regime makes it an attractive alternative. However, there will be questions as to whether it can maintain its appeal after EU regulators Tuesday ruled that a special scheme used by U.S. technology giant Apple to route profits through Ireland was illegal and ordered the company pay billions of euros in taxes to the Irish government. Insurers Admiral and Beazley have said they are considering moving more business to Ireland while the funds arm of insurer Prudential is looking at expanding Dublin operations. Dublin's open-door policy and flexibility could be upset by the European Commission's demand that Apple hand over up to 13 billion euros ($14.5 billion) to the Irish government for only paying between 0.005 and 1 percent on European profits. Ireland said it intended to appeal the decision. ...

Parliamentary Information and Telecommunications Committee Monday discussed the situation of Lebanon's state-run TV station Tele Liban, voicing the need to enhance its performance. The meeting was attended by Talal Makdessi, chairman and CEO of Tele Liban, and the station's Financial Affairs Manager Richard Rashid.

Blame the infrastructure, not Syrians, for Litani pollution
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
The problem is much more complex, however, stemming in part from deep-seated infrastructure problems in towns and informal tented settlements along the river. In July, Future MP Mohammad Qabbani said "pollution had increased with the presence of the Syrian refugee camps in huge numbers on the banks of the river in Western Bekaa," during a news conference following a meeting of the Parliamentary Public Works, Transportation, Energy, and Water Committee. He specifically cited the sewage from the camps as a source of the river's pollution, adding that the river is further polluted by nearby factories. Municipalities and landlords have reportedly avoided making significant improvements to the run-down buildings and informal tented settlements where some 40 percent of the country's 1.1 million registered refugees live, as a way of discouraging permanent settlement. However, refugees are certainly not the worst offenders in the pollution of the river. Considering the current state of the river and the country's chronic infrastructure problems, which continue to exacerbate its pollution, those difficulties may be many. ...

Israeli soldiers Friday shot and killed an apparently unarmed Palestinian who ran toward their position in a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank, and the incident was under review, a military spokeswoman said. At least 209 Palestinians have been killed, 141 of whom Israel said were assailants. Palestinian leaders say assailants have acted out of desperation over the collapse of peace talks in 2014 and Israeli settlement expansion in Israeli-occupied territory that Palestinians seek for an independent state. ...

Originally from Marjayoun, in the south of Lebanon, Amal Farha-Oaks fled Lebanon in 1980 due to the Civil War. "I was seeing reviews everywhere in the papers about dry meat, bland hummus and flatbread," Farha-Oaks told The Daily Star. Suddenly she had a desire to show people that Lebanese food was nutritious, healthy and, most importantly, tasty. Farha-Oaks does plan on expanding her restaurant, but does not see herself opening new locations, for fear of losing authenticity. Lebanese cuisine is one of the more recognized and well-liked cuisines around the world. Farha-Oaks has been able to take Lebanese cuisine out of the country, while keeping the country in the cuisine. ...

www.dailystar.com.lb
The United States said it would welcome its 10,000th Syrian refugee of this fiscal year Monday, meeting a controversial target more than a month ahead of schedule. The United States has traditionally been by far the world's most generous host for refugees but has been criticized by activists for moving too slowly to respond to the Syrian crisis, which has dragged on for more than five years. The Syrian refugees admitted to the United States are chosen from United Nations camps and then vetted by U.S. security and intelligence agencies. ...

The people of Gabon vote Saturday to decide whether President Ali Bongo will remain in office or be unseated by a career diplomat and close associate of his late father, who ran the country for 41 years. Bongo, 57, and ex-African Union Commission chief Jean Ping, 73, who both worked under Omar Bongo until he died in 2009, are seen as the only credible candidates among a field of 10 . In an overt jibe towards Ping's long association with his father, Bongo has also stressed the need to break with the bad old days of disappearing public funds and dodgy management of oil revenues. Ping and Bongo go back a long way, having worked for years together under Bongo senior, who was responsible for getting Ping his job as chairman of the AU Commission. ...

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto fired federal police chief Enrique Galindo on Monday over allegations police summarily executed at least 22 suspected members of a drugs cartel and killed eight others during a protest. The gun battle killed 42 suspects along with a police officer. Galindo initially said that uniformed police who arrived at the protest unarmed were forced to retreat before returning with weapons after they were confronted by some 2,000 angry protesters, some of them armed. The event was the most violent confrontation between civilian protesters and federal police since the force was instituted in 1999 . ...

Brazilians turn a lens on a country in transition
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
Brazil holds a special place in Lebanese pop culture. You'd imagine Brazil's celebrity status might have something to do with that country's old Turco (Syrian-Lebanese) community, rooted in 19th-century migration history. A four-night cycle hosted by Metropolis Cinema-Sofil, it will screen four recent features from Brazil and a pair of locally made shorts that reflect on Lebanon's relationship with that country. Roberto Berliner's 2015 feature is a biopic recounting the work of 20th-century psychiatrist and patients' rights advocate Nise da Silveria. The film opens in the 1940s with da Silveria's return to the Rio de Janeiro mental institution where she'd interned. Among the more accomplished works in this film cycle is Fellipe Barbosa's 2014 debut feature "Casa Grande," a class-inflected coming-of-age tale set in Rio. The Lebanese content in this first Brazilian film festival is comprised of Anthony Lappe and Tony Khoury's 23-minute documentary "Lebanon Wins the World Cup," and Bechara Mouzannar's 19-minute feature-ette "Apelo". With "Lebanon Wins the World Cup," Lappe and Khoury revisit a premise taken up by a number of Lebanese documentary-makers in the past couple of decades – looking in on men who were fighters during the country's 1975-90 Civil War. ...

Iraq blacklists tankers involved in shipping Kurdish crude
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
Iraqi state oil firm SOMO has blacklisted three tankers involved in shipping crude from Kurdistan, stepping up pressure on the semi-autonomous region amid tense talks on sharing oil revenue. Baghdad, which exports most of its oil from the Gulf, has said Irbil was not exporting enough crude under the deal. Baghdad's shipments to Kurdistan of Kirkuk crude, which it restarted earlier this month, have been only half the previously supplied 180,000 bpd. Sending crude to Iran would also involve significantly higher trucking costs -- estimated at up to $20 per barrel -- than sending oil by pipeline to the Mediterranean, thus further reducing revenues from oil exports. ...

Yemen's exiled government has said it welcomes in principle a US-backed plan to resume peace talks with Iran-backed rebels on the basis of forming a unity government. In Sanaa, the rebels said they had discussed the establishment of a government, and said they would respond "positively" to any attempt to end the conflict. The rebels had been demanding a unity government as the first step towards resolving Yemen's war. The internationally backed government of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi wanted a rebel pullout from seized territory, including Sanaa, and a surrender of weapons, as the first steps, in line with a UN Security Council resolution on the crisis. ...

Tough new conditions for concerts in Iran capital

www.dailystar.com.lb
The Tehran prosecutor recommended strict new rules Saturday for concerts in the capital, the latest in a tug of war between moderates and conservatives that has already seen live music banned in Iran's second city Mashhad. It comes amid a wave of last-minute cancellations of concerts in Iran under pressure from hardliners and religious leaders which has been criticized by the more liberal President Hassan Rouhani. Although no concerts have been held in Mashhad for 11 years, Culture Minister Ali Jannati agreed to the ban, only to find himself criticized by the president for caving into conservative demands. One of Iran's most famous classical singers, Shahram Nazeri – who has previously been nicknamed "Iran's Pavarotti" – almost had to cancel a concert with his son Hafez in the religious city of Yazd last week. ...

Danish PM seeks emergency law to reject asylum seekers at borders

The Danish government on Tuesday proposed adoption of a law that would enable police to reject asylum seekers at the borders in times of crisis such as that in 2015 when thousands of migrants sought to enter the country. Last year over one million migrants and refugees crossed into European countries, putting pressure on the Dublin rules under which the member state where asylum seekers first apply for protection is responsible for examining their claims. Inspired by law-making in neighbouring Nordic country Norway, where a similar statutory power was adopted in June this year, the Danish government said it needed to prepare for a situation where the Dublin regulation would cease to work. ...

Tense Gabon braces for disputed election result

Gabon was braced Wednesday for an election result that looks likely to be hotly disputed between bitter rivals President Ali Bongo and his main challenger Jean Ping. Gabonese have become increasingly nervous about the delay in delivering the results, as well as claims by Ping to have won by 60 percent. The government accused Ping Tuesday of trying to destabilize Gabon. Bongo was first elected in 2009 after the death of his father, Omar Bongo, who ran Gabon for 42 years. Gabon's economic troubles, caused by falling oil output and prices, have fueled opposition charges that its 1.8 million people have struggled under Bongo's leadership. ...

US, Russia claim credit as ISIS spokesman killed in Syria
null

www.dailystar.com.lb
ISIS spokesman and top strategist Abu Mohamed al-Adnani has been killed in Syria, the group said, with both Washington and Moscow claiming credit. Adnani was ISIS' propaganda chief, top recruiter and the reported mastermind of a string of ISIS-claimed attacks in the West. In Washington, the Pentagon said US-led coalition forces had targeted Adnani in an air strike in Syria's Aleppo province on Tuesday but did not immediately confirm his death. Russia's military said one of its air strikes had killed Adnani in a bombing raid Tuesday that left up to 40 ISIS extremists dead. Both ISIS' second-in-command Abd ar-Rahman Mustafa al-Qaduli and its top military commander Omar al-Shishani have been killed in reported US strikes since March. It was the first time Moscow claimed to have killed a top-ranking ISIS leader. It was Adnani who in a June 2014 audio recording declared ISIS establishment of a "caliphate" straddling Syria and Iraq and Baghdadi as "leader of Muslims everywhere". ...

Bangladesh upholds Islamist tycoon's death sentence
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
A wealthy tycoon who was a chief financier for Bangladesh's largest Islamist party could be executed in days after losing his final appeal Tuesday against a death sentence from a controversial war crimes tribunal. The Supreme Court rejected Mir Quasem Ali's last attempt to overturn the death sentence handed down two years ago by the domestic tribunal for murders committed during Bangladesh's 1971 independence conflict. Five opposition leaders including four leading Islamists have already been executed for war crimes since 2013 . The executions and convictions of Jamaat officials plunged Bangladesh into one of its worst crises in 2013 when tens of thousands of Islamist activists clashed with police in protests that left some 500 people dead. Jamaat was briefly banned by newly independent Bangladesh after its leaders became key organisers of the notorious pro-Pakistani militia al-Badr during the nine-month war of independence. ...

With eight Oscars, 11 Grammys and a Tony vying for space on his mantelpiece, Alan Menken's bill for dry-cleaning tuxedos might match the box-office of most Off-Broadway openings. Menken gets to be the 13th if "A New Season," his song from the TV show "Galavant" wins for outstanding original music and lyrics in September's Emmy Awards. A huge critical and commercial hit, the movie has been a departure for Menken, who was not used to penning lyrics liberally sprinkled with four-letter words. After that, Menken is signed up to work with musical theater's man-of-the-hour Lin Manuel Miranda on a live-action version of "The Little Mermaid". With a movie under his belt that tackles religion, Menken is adamant that he has no intention of extending his scope to include political musicals. ...

Chelsea swept to the top of the Premier League with a 3-0 victory over Burnley, while Arsenal won 3-1 at Watford to ease the pressure on Arsene Wenger on Saturday. There were no complaints as Arsenal took the lead in the ninth minute when Santi Cazorla stroked home a penalty after Nordin Amrabat elbowed Alexis Sanchez. Danny Rose's 72nd-minute equalizer earned Tottenham Hotspur a 1-1 draw with Liverpool at White Hart Lane. James Milner gave Liverpool a deserved lead with a penalty in the 43rd minute after Roberto Firmino went down under the slightest contact by Erik Lamela. Ronald Koeman's team enjoyed a stroke of luck in the 51st minute when Leighton Baines' penalty -- awarded for a foul on Ashley Williams -- was pushed onto a post by Shay Given, only for the ball to rebound off the Stoke goalkeeper's head into the net for an own goal. Southampton rescued a dramatic 1-1 draw against Sunderland as Jay Rodriguez's 85th-minute strike crept past goalkeeper Jordan Pickford to cancel out Jermain Defoe's 80th-minute penalty at St Mary's. ...

A defiant President Dilma Rousseff warned Brazilians Monday that her conservative opponents were trampling on democracy by using trumped-up charges to oust her and roll back the social advances of the past 13 years. If the Senate convicts Rousseff Tuesday or Wednesday, as expected, her vice president Michel Temer will be sworn in to serve the rest of her term through 2018 . Temer has been interim president since mid-May, when Rousseff was suspended after Congress decided it would continue the impeachment process that began in the lower house. Twenty of her former Cabinet ministers were in the Senate gallery to support Rousseff, including Lula himself. ...

How history left many Bedouins in Lebanon stateless
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
Spread across the living room floor of a small house in Zahle's Kfar Zabad, the Bedouin Saleh family lamented the circumstances that have left many of their people stateless. Though the parents of the Saleh family are Lebanese citizens, their children have no nationality. The presence of Bedouin in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley dates back to the 13th century. Taimey explained that the land had been informally divided between the tribes, with specific parcels for each family, until the French changed the system. Many considered themselves to be Lebanese, but the rapid changes were not beneficial for Bedouins. Chatty explained that some Bedouins saw it as fighting the French. With the world changing so quickly around them, many of the old Bedouin traditions have been lost. As the Bedouin have settled, they have become more similar to the societies they live alongside. "In Lebanon they prefer to call themselves Lebanese members of Al-Ashaer or Al-Arabiya particularly, because the term Badu carries negative meaning in Lebanon and makes members of the community discriminated against". He noted that sometimes a person who belongs to the Bedouin community can't be distinguished from someone who doesn't, but that there continues to be discrimination against the group. ...

The United States' NBA superstars bring the curtain down on the 2016 Rio Olympics Sunday as the last 12 gold medals are decided. Only Serbia stand in the way of the U.S. defending champions and a sixth Olympic gold in seven tries. The Americans take a 24-game Olympic win streak, and an overall decade-long run of 75 consecutive triumphs, into the final seeking a third gold medal in a row. U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski guides the team for the final time before being replaced by NBA San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich. Serbia coach Sasha Djordevic, who lost to the USA's second NBA Olympic squad in the 1996 final as a member of Yugoslavia, wants his team proud but not satisfied. ...

Disgraced former FIFA president Sepp Blatter appeared before sport's highest tribunal, the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS), Thursday to appeal against his six-year ban from soccer. The 80-year-old, who headed soccer's global governing body for 17 years until he resigned in June last year, was banned from all soccer-related activity last December along with the then European soccer boss, Michel Platini. The bans were imposed for ethics violations related to a payment of two million Swiss francs that FIFA made to Platini with Blatter's approval in 2011 for work done a decade earlier. Platini has already taken his case to CAS, who rejected his appeal but reduced his ban to four years. ...

South Africa is still grappling with racial issues 22 years after the end of white-minority rule. Black students at the school also alleged on social media that they were not allowed to speak ethnic languages to one other. Disagreements over students' hairstyles have previously erupted in South African schools, with some parents accusing education authorities of racism. ...

Rodriguez late strike extends Sunderland's August drought

www.dailystar.com.lb
Jay Rodriguez's first goal in two years for Southampton denied Sunderland their first victory in the opening month of the past six Premier League seasons, as the two sides drew 1-1 at St Mary's on Saturday. Rodriguez's goal -- aided by a terrible error by the previously impressive young goalkeeper Jordan Pickford -- cancelled out Jermain Defoe's 80th-minute penalty, the sixth successive away game the former England striker has scored in. Southampton started brightly with former Queens Park Rangers marksman Charlie Austin forcing two good saves from Pickford, the 22-year-old playing because of an injury to first choice Vito Mannone. ...

FPM questions Cabinet legitimacy after session
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
The Free Patriotic Movement Thursday reacted swiftly to the holding of a Cabinet session by questioning the legitimacy of the government and warning against attempts to pass any decrees in the absence of FPM ministers. Ignoring a boycott by the FPM's ministers over military appointments, Prime Minister Tammam Salam chaired a Cabinet session that took some minor decisions, but deferred discussion of divisive issues apparently to avert a new split. The FPM ministers' boycott also appeared to have led to a two-week freeze in Cabinet meetings. Information Minister Ramzi Joreige said the next session will be held on Sept. 8, hoping that all ministers will attend. However, the four-hour session was marred by a walkout by Tourism Minister Michel Pharaon who argued that ministers discussed important issues in the absence of the FPM ministers, and their Tashnag allied minister and the Kataeb Party. The two FPM ministers, Bassil and Education Minister Elias Bou Saab, did not attend the session. However, the two ministers of Hezbollah, which is a key ally of the FPM, attended after attempts to convince Salam to postpone the session were unsuccessful. Industry Minister Hussein Hajj Hasan, one of the two Hezbollah ministers, initially refused to discuss the party's decision not to show solidarity with the FPM ministers. ...

Saudi-led airstrikes reportedly kill 11 civilians in Yemen
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
Airstrikes by a Saudi-led coalition in northern Yemen killed 11 civilians, including women and children, Yemen's rebel-run news agency said Friday. The overnight attack in the city of Saada, a stronghold of the Shiite rebels known as Houthis, came as Iran's foreign minister dismissed claims from Saudi Arabia that his country had supplied Yemen's rebels with missiles. In Yemen, the SABA agency, which is under control of the Houthis, reported that two houses located in the district of Baqam in the city of Saada were destroyed by airstrikes overnight. On Thursday, the U.N. human rights chief, Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, called for an international investigation into rights abuses and violence in Yemen's civil war, insisting that a domestic panel set up to look into violations has not been up to the task. ...

Germany's vice chancellor and economy minister Sigmar Gabriel said Sunday that negotiations on a massive trade between the European Union and the United States were effectively dead in the water.

France's Prime Minister Manuel Valls has said it would be "impossible" for the two sides to conclude negotiations on a trade deal by the end of 2016 . ...

Coverage of the 2016 Olympics in Rio has shown us that sports commentators are just as guilty of such sexist language as the people they would otherwise lambaste. Oakland University Prof. Kath Woodward said of the phenomenon, "I am shocked by how we seem to have gone backward in how we describe women competitors". And it's not just the language that's raising eyebrows, but also the fact that female athletes are garnering far less coverage and less air time than their male counterparts. ...

2016 Chevy Volt plugs into a quicker, quieter ride
null
null
www.dailystar.com.lb
The 2016 Chevrolet Volt is quicker, quieter, more fuel-efficient and goes farther – up to 53 miles – on all-electric power than its predecessor. The starting manufacturer's suggested retail price, including delivery charge, for a 2016 Volt 1LT five-door hatchback is $33,995, about 17 percent lower than when the Volt debuted in 2011 for more than $40,000 . The upgraded engine, a 1.5-liter, double overhead cam four cylinder, generates 101 horsepower, up from 84 horsepower in the previous four cylinder. Note that the Volt fuel tank is small, holding just 8.9 gallons, down from 9.3 gallons in the 2015 Volt. All a driver has to do is plug in the car to either a standard 120-volt home outlet or a 240-volt fast-charger. ...

A Turkish court Saturday placed under arrest three former top diplomats, including an advisor to ex-president Abdullah Gul, over links to the failed July 15 coup, state media said. Davutoglu in May 2015 confirmed he had secretly visited Gulen for talks at his Pennsylvania compound aimed at persuading him to return to Turkey to ease tensions in the bureaucracy. He has insisted both Gul and Erdogan, then prime minister, were aware of the visit. There has never been any suggestion of wrongdoing on the part of Gul and Davutoglu and both condemned the coup in the strongest possible terms. ...

U.S. sanctions on Iran will not prevent Lebanon from engaging in financial deals with the country, Industry Minister Hussein Hajj Hasan said Sunday. "Central Bank Gov. Riad Salameh assured me ahead of my visit to Tehran that U.S. sanctions on Iran and the U.S. pressure on Lebanese banks will not impact money transfers between the two countries," he said during a meeting with his Iranian counterpart in Tehran. Hajj Hasan said his visit was highly important because it aimed to draft a clear strategy for paving the way to opening Iranian banks in Lebanon and vice versa to facilitate money transfers between the countries. For his part, Iranian Industry, Mine and Trade Minister Mohammad-Reza Nematzadeh praised Lebanon's expertise in the banking sector saying that Iran is looking forward to benefiting from its relation with Lebanon in this area. Nematzadeh said that Iran has flourished remarkably in the industrial field due to the policies adopted in the country. ...

Delaware State Police investigators were trying to determine Thursday how a woman fell 35 feet to her death from a zip line platform at a state park. According to the website of Go Ape, which is based in Frederick, Maryland, and operates attractions in 15 states, patrons receive a 30-minute training session before being turned loose on the course, which can take them as high as 50 feet in the air. Slater said her mom, who was visiting Lums Pond with a friend, was able to complete at least one zip line ride before falling. The Go Ape attraction opened at Lums Pond in 2013, with officials touting it as the first zip line adventure course in a state park on the East Coast. ...

In wake of cousin's fatal shooting, Dwyane Wade speaks out

www.dailystar.com.lb
NBA star Dwyane Wade's cousin was an innocent bystander, police said, pushing her baby in a stroller near a Chicago school where she intended to register her children when she was fatally shot Friday. Wade ended both days of tweets with the hashtag "EnoughIsEnough". Wade, whose charitable organization, Wade's World Foundation, does community outreach in the Chicago area, signed with the Chicago Bulls in July after 13 years with the Miami Heat. It is not the first time Dwyane Wade's family in Chicago has been affected by gun violence. Chicago had recorded 381 homicides by the end of July, up 30 percent from the same period of 2015 . Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has spoken about the city's violence, and used Aldridge's death as a chance to tweet about it Saturday morning. ...
