Image
Donald Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani has said North Korea's leader "begged" for their summit to be rescheduled after the US president cancelled it. Speaking at a conference in Israel, Mr Giuliani said Mr Trump's tough stance had forced Pyongyang's hand. Mr Trump called off the summit in May, accusing North Korea of "tremendous anger and open hostility". But plans for the 12 June bilateral in Singapore were revived after a conciliatory response from Pyongyang. Mr Giuliani was speaking at an investment conference in Israel when he made the remark. The Wall Street Journal first reported that Mr Giuliani said: "Well, Kim Jong-un got back on his hands and knees and begged for it, which is exactly the position you want to put him in."

China hit by cyber virus, Europe warns of more attacks

Image
BEIJING: The WannaCry "ransomware" cyber-attack hobbled Chinese traffic police and schools on Monday as it rolled into Asia for the new work week, while authorities in Europe said they were trying to prevent hackers from spreading new versions of the virus. In Britain, where the virus first raised global alarm when it caused hospitals to divert ambulances on Friday, it gained traction as a political issue just weeks before a general election. The opposition Labour Party accused the Conservative government of leaving the National Health Service vulnerable. Shares in firms that provide cyber security services rose with the prospect that companies and governments would have to spend more money on defenses. Some victims were ignoring official advice and paying the $300 ransom demanded by the cyber criminals to unlock their computers, which was due to double to $600 on Monday for computers hit by Friday's first wave. Brian Lord, managing director of cyber and technology a

News is that filmmaker Karan Johar is the main reason behind the Katrina K’s joining social media in the first place. An Indian media report claimed that the bollywood director most probably scared her that her career would be going nowhere if she stays away from social media. It seems Katrina Kaif has taken the advice way too seriously as she has become extremely active on Instagram by sharing at least one photo on daily basis.

Microsoft making mobile connection with Windows update

SEATTLE: Microsoft on Thursday unveiled a forthcoming Windows update aimed at keeping its desktop and laptop computers at the heart of lifestyles increasing reliant on smartphones. Enhancements to the widely used operating system to roll out later this year are designed to make applications built on Microsoft technology work more harmoniously across an array of internet-linked devices, according to demonstrations given at the company´s Build developers conference in Seattle. One key addition of the Windows 10 Fall update will allow people to leave what they are doing on one device and pick up where they left off on another -- be it a Windows, Apple, or Android driven machine. Windows personal computers "will love all your devices," said Microsoft operating systems group corporate vice president Joe Belfiore.

South Africa confirm gamble on Morkel

Image
DUNEDIN, New Zealand: South Africa will gamble on the fitness of speedster Morne Morkel when the first Test against New Zealand begins in Dunedin on Wednesday With cool, blustery conditions expected and a green hue to the wicket, New Zealand would not confirm their likely line-up on Tuesday, leaving open the option of playing a second spin bowler. But South African captain Faf du Plessis felt that one spinner and Morkel slotting in as the third seamer behind Vern Philander and Kagiso Rabada would give his side the best balance. The 1.96 metre (6ft 5in) Morkel, with 242 Test wickets, has been out of international action since early last year with a back injury which he aggravated again during a tour match in Australia last November. Du Plessis said the risk of putting the tall paceman back into action against New Zealand was worth it. “If he’s not going to be able to play now then we’ll never know if we don’t take that chance,” du Plessis said Tuesday. “Every time he’s bowled in th

Low-dose aspirin can lower breast cancer risk, study says

Image
ISLAMABAD: Women who regularly take a low-dose aspirin had a lower risk of breast cancer, according to a latest study. The study used data from more than 57,000 women who were part of the California Teachers Study, in the 23% of women who reported using low-dose aspirin regularly, researchers saw a 20% reduction in the risk of developing HR-positive/HER2 negative breast cancer, some of the most common forms of the disease, reported CNN health news. The risk was inversely associated with taking a low-dose aspirin three or more times a week, compared with those women who had no regular low-dose aspirin use. Women who took other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen did not see as much of a difference, nor did those taking a regular high-dose aspirin. Previous studies have showed mixed results in breast cancer impact among women who took a regular high-dose aspirin. Aspirin is already known for its potential to reduce other kinds of cancers and ca

Trump budget opens new fight among Republicans

Image
anyway04.blogspot.com WASHINGTON: Republican U.S. Representative Todd Rokita keeps a clock hanging on the wall of his Capitol Hill office that tracks the U.S. government's rising debt in real time and reminds him of his top priority: reining in federal spending. “I was sent here on a fiscal note,” said the Indiana lawmaker and vice chairman of the House of Representatives Budget Committee, who rode a Republican wave during his first election to Congress in 2010. When President Donald Trump unveils his budget for the 2018 fiscal year on Thursday, Rokita will be among many conservative Republicans cheering proposed cuts to domestic programs that would pay for a military buildup. More moderate Republicans are less enthusiastic and worry Trump's budget could force lawmakers to choose between opposing the president or backing reductions in popular programs such as aid for disabled children and hot meals for the elderly. “What you would hope is that the administratio
