1…………> “Where Is The Rice?”: Comrade Un

 

North Korea’s foreign minister Ri Yong-ho claimed that the United States is not holding up its end of their recent denuclearization deal, telling the ASEAN regional forum that both sides need to take “simultaneous actions,’ and that North Korea has halted nuclear and missile tests and is also dismantling its site for atomic weapon experiments.

“However, the United States, instead of responding to these measures, is raising its voice louder to maintain the sanctions against [North Korea] and show the attitude to retreat even from declaring the end of the war, a fundamental and primary step for providing peace on the Korean Peninsula,” he said in a speech made available by Pyongyang’s delegation.

Washington has maintained it will only agree to end the Korean War formally — having signed the 1953 armistice — once the North has denuclearized.

2…………> You Freeze Me, I Freeze You: Erdogan

 

Clearly enraged by the idiotic pressure tactics of Obama holdovers at the State Department who conspired with FETO to assassinate and turn Turkey into another Syria a few years back,  the Turkish president said he will freeze assets of the U.S. “justice and interior” secretaries in Turkey.

“I am instructing my friends today. We will freeze assets, if there are any, of the U.S. justice and interior secretaries in Turkey,” Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, speaking at ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party’s Women Branch Congress in Ankara.

Erdogan said the Turkish nation would not step back because of “threatening rhetoric and silly decisions” of sanctions.

“Especially the latest step by America regarding pastor Brunson issue in Izmir is an ill-fitted step for a strategic partner,” he added.

“Turkey cannot be an item of U.S. domestic politics like it became in Europe. Repeating the faults that Europe did, will not earn America anything,” Erdogan said.

3…………> Trump Insults God: i.e., LeBron James

 

US President Donald Trump has taunted US basketball player Lebron James and suggested that he prefers Michael Jordan after the LA Lakers star accused Mr.Trump of being divisive in a CNN interview.

The president responded on Twitter by saying: “Lebron James was just interviewed by the dumbest man on television, Don Lemon. He made Lebron look smart, which isn’t easy to do.”

The president implied that he preferred basketball star Michael Jordan, perhaps a reference to the debate over whether Jordan or James was the better player.

James fired back by saying the following:

“Sports has never been something that divides people. It’s always been something that brings someone together. He [Mr. Trump] is dividing us and what I noticed over the last few months that he’s kinda used sport to divide us and that’s something I can’t relate to because I know that sport was the first time I was ever around someone white.”

4…………> World’s Greatest Enemy: Pollution 

 

A study of 4,000 people in the UK found those who lived by loud, busy roads had larger hearts on average than those living in less polluted areas.

This was despite the fact people in the study were exposed to pollution levels below the UK guidelines.

Researchers called on the government to reduce air pollution more quickly since it is linked to one in six deaths, as a team of scientists, led from the Queen Mary University of London, analyzed health data of people who had no underlying heart problems and were part of the UK Biobank study, including the size, weight, and function of their hearts.

Researchers also looked at the pollution levels in the areas they lived in, and their study found a clear link between exposure to higher pollution levels and more substantial right and left ventricles – primary pumping chambers in the heart.

For every extra one microgram per cubic meter of PM2.5 – small particles of air pollution – and for every ten additional micrograms per cubic meter of nitrogen dioxide, the heart enlarged by about 1%.

5…………> Majesty, I Is Hungry: Steve Lawlor

 

A homeless man named Steven Lawlor, 44, who trespassed in the grounds of Buckingham Palace, entering the protected royal site on July 16, breaking poster boards and glass cabinets fixed to metal railings to use as bedding, then slept in the Royal garden, has been jailed 49 days.

He stayed there for more than four hours before the security guards spotted him on CCTV cameras, but fortunately, the Queen was not in the palace at that time.

In 2016, a convicted murderer was jailed after climbing over the wall to get inside the palace and stay there for ten minutes. (Xinhua)
