| Salisbury's fears continue after police admit there could be more Novichok out there Posted: 14 Jul 2018 08:17 AM PDT  Police have admitted there could still be traces of deadly Novichok nerve agent in Salisbury, prompting renewed concern over the safety of residents and the continued impact on the city's tourism economy. The warning came after officers discovered a small glass bottle at the Wiltshire home of Charlie Rowley, which has since tested positive for the chemical. Mr Rowley's girlfriend Dawn Sturgess, 44, died in hospital last Sunday evening after being exposed to the nerve agent the previous weekend. Salisbury couple He was also taken to hospital critically ill, but has since regained consciousness and has been interviewed by police. It is thought Mr Rowley, 45, was able to help detectives as to the whereabouts of the source of the contamination when he emerged from his coma last week. The rise of biological and chemical weapons After Salisbury, how ready is the UK? Further tests on the bottle and its contents are now being carried out and it is hoped it could provide crucial evidence to prove who attacked the former Russian double agent, Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, in March. But announcing the discovery of the bottle as "a significant and positive development", Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu, the Head of UK Counter Terrorism Policing, also warned: "We cannot guarantee that there isn't any more of the substance left and cordons will remain in place for some considerable time. This is to allow thorough searches to continue as a precautionary measure for public safety and to assist the investigation team." AC Basu added: "The safety of the public and our officers remains paramount and we are continuing to work closely with Wiltshire Police, scientists, health experts from Public Health England and other partners." PHE has maintained its advice to the public not to pick up any discarded object in the Salisbury area, such as containers, lids, syringes, needles, cosmetics, which could contain liquid or gel. Scotland Yard said tests at the Defence, Science and Technology Laboratory at Porton Down, Wiltshire, had confirmed to that the substance contained in the bottle was Novichok and further tests are being carried out to establish whether it came from the same batch that contaminated Mr Skripal and his daughter. Police outside the home of Charlie Rowley, 45, in Muggleton Road in Amesbury, Wiltshire, where a bottle containing Novichok was found Credit: Steve Parsons/PA Police yesterday said their search teams had recovered over 400 exhibits, samples and items as part of the ongoing police investigation. Scotland Yard also warned that searches for any other potential sites or sources of contamination are expected to continue for several weeks, if not months. AC Basu described the investigation as "one of the most complex and difficult that UK policing has ever faced". But the fact police have yet to confirm how the bottle came into the possession of Mr Rowley and Miss Sturgess and where they found it has left Salisbury residents deeply uneasy. Novichok poisoning - Salisbury – Amesbury timeline and map It is thought they may have come across it in Queen Elizabeth Gardens, close to the centre of Salisbury, before catching a bus to Mr Rowley's home, where they collapsed within hours of each other. The large park has since been sealed off by police. Sabrina Burr, 38, who lives less than 200 metres away from Mr Rowley's home in Muggleton Road, Amesbury, said: "I can't believe that something so deadly could be so close. It's scary to think what could have happened, children play around here, what if something happened to them? "I'm quite concerned that anyone around here could have been exposed, it makes me a little angry. Is there more of it?" Ms Burr added: "I'm happy police have found it but I hope this is the only source of it, if they could just pick it up, then anyone could." Officers yesterday continued their forensic examination of Mr Rowley's home, where a fire engine and a special incident response ambulance remained in position. Another of Mr Rowley's neighbours said she is now scared to let her children play either on the green next to his home or in Queen Elizabeth Gardens. She said: "It's really scary knowing that something that can kill you so easily was just hundreds of metres away from my home and children. "You would see Charlie and Dawn around, they were always very nice, but to think they were carrying something so deadly is horrible." She added: "It's scary that they were able to just pick it up off of the floor. I hope there isn't anymore, but you just never know, I don't think we will ever know for sure." Matthew Dean, leader of Salisbury City Council, told The Sunday Telegraph: "A very big question remains over how the container got there and if it was found by one of them in Salisbury what are the implications for the people of the town." Yulia Skripal, who survived a Novichok assassination attempt on her and her father Sergei, a former Russian spy Credit: Dylan Martinez/PA The impact of the second Novichok poisoning has left Salisbury's economy reeling, just as it was starting to recover from the fall out of the attack on the Skripals. Footfall in local shops has dropped by an estimated thirty per cent, a similar drop to that which followed the Skripal attack - but at a time when the cathedral city should be busy with tourists. Local sources say many American coach parties have simply stopped coming to Salisbury, a favourite location close to Stonehenge. The Government is to provide a £5 million recovery package for the city to support businesses, boost tourism and meet unexpected costs. Mr Dean said: "People are very nervous about the continuing economic impact on the area. We have had very poor tourist numbers this year, despite the good weather. People are very concerned about that especially after they had started to feel they had turned a corner after the March attack."

| Six-year-old heard in ProPublica US border separation tape reunited with mother Posted: 14 Jul 2018 08:18 AM PDT  A six-year-old girl who was recorded crying in a detention centre after being separated from her mother at the US-Mexico border has been reunited with her. The mother, Cindy Madrid, who had fled from El Salvador, was reunited with her daughter Alisson at Houston airport after weeks apart. Last month Alisson was heard on a tape published by ProPublica, reciting a phone number for her family as she was detained. At a press conference in Houston, Alisson, speaking though an interpreter, said: "I was away from her for a month and I was really happy when I saw her. I was happy because I was able to see her and hug her." Her mother said: "It's so hard for a parent to be away from their kids. I was so desperate." The family's lawyer said they would be living together in Houston before an asylum hearing at an as yet unknown date. The mother had been held at a detention centre in Houston and her daughter had been taken to one in Arizona. Under the "zero tolerance" policy employed by US President Donald Trump they were separated after crossing the border illegally. Mr Trump later reversed the policy. Donald Trump's shameful border policy is alienating his supporters It came as a judge in California ordered the Trump administration to pay the costs of reuniting illegal immigrant parents with children separated from them at the border, rather than forcing the parents to pay. The US government is still working to reunite more than 2,500 children with their parents.

| Nancy Sinatra Senior, first wife of singer Frank, has died aged 101 Posted: 14 Jul 2018 12:48 AM PDT  Nancy Sinatra Senior, the first wife of singer Frank and mother of his three children, has died aged 101. Her daughter Nancy Junior, famed for her song These Boots Were Made For Walkin', posted the news to Twitter early on Saturday morning. She wrote: "My mother passed away peacefully tonight at the age of 101. "She was a blessing and the light of my life. Godspeed, Momma. Thank you for everything." Nancy Sinatra Senior was born as Nancy Barbato on March 25, 1917 and met Frank in 1934 at the New Jersey holiday resort of Long Branch. He was 19, she was 17 and the couple got engaged almost immediately. Over the next few years, they rarely saw each other because of Sinatra's virtually non-stop work-schedule. Frank admitted, when questioned by Nancy, that he had been involved with another woman, but he insisted there would be no more and the pair got married. However, in September, 1950, Nancy was granted a legal separation because of his mental cruelty. Nancy Junior is the eldest of the three children, followed by singer Frank Junior who died in 2016 and actress Tina.

| Germany agrees to take share of 450 migrants awaiting fate on ships off Italy Posted: 15 Jul 2018 11:21 AM PDT  Germany has agreed to take 50 of 450 migrants rescued from an overcrowded boat in the Mediterranean following a plea from Italy for EU states to share responsibility. Sunday's show of goodwill came after France and Malta had already agreed to take 50 migrants each in response to letters sent to the governments of the 27 other EU members by Giuseppe Conte, the Italian prime minister, asking them to share responsibility with Rome. It also came as Horst Seehofer, the German interior minister, confirmed that Bavarian state police would be given the power to patrol the state's southern border with Austria as a part of a series of new measures aimed at clamping down on migrant arrivals. Mr Seehofer said on Sunday that Bavarian police would be able to conduct checks at the Austrian border "at the request or with the consent of federal police," after it was questioned whether it was legal for such power to be granted to them. The number of people crossing the German-Austrian border illegally has dropped sharply since a dramatic influx of migrants in 2015. However, with the Bavarian regional elections in October, Mr Seehofer's Christian Social Union (CSU), which governs in Bavaria, is under pressure to take a hard line on migration. Earlier this month Mr Seehofer threatened to resign if chancellor Angela Merkel failed to come up with a European solution, or to allow him to implement tougher border controls. The migrants were saved by two ships, one operated by EU border agency Frontex and one owned by Italy's tax police Credit: JORGE GUERRERO/ AFP Following the row, which threatened to tear apart the coalition government, Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and her Bavarian counterparts reached an agreement on how to control migration at the German-Austrian border. Germany is also under pressure to share the burden of accepting and hosting new migrant arrivals from outside the bloc, as was pledged at an EU summit in Brussels last month. In light of the talks, the German government on Sunday agreed to take in its migrants who were picked up near the Italian island of Linosa, close to Malta, having sailed from Libya in a single wooden vessel. "Germany and Italy have agreed that, in view of the ongoing talks on closer bilateral cooperation on asylum, Germany is ready to accept 50 people in this case," a German government spokeswoman said on Sunday. Immigrant relations map migrant immigration Europe Italy Mr Conte said his country would help the migrants, but needed other members of the EU to share the burden. "This is the solidarity and responsibility that we have always asked of Europe and now, after the results obtained at the last European Council, they are beginning to become reality," Mr Conte wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday afternoon. "Let's continue on this path with firmness and respect for human rights," he added. However the Czech Republic refused his request and Andrej Babis, the prime minister, tweeted that the approach was the "road to hell". Boats should instead be stopped and turned back, he said, and migrants should be helped in their own countries. The migrants were saved by two ships, one operated by EU border agency Frontex and one owned by Italy's tax police. As they awaited to learn their destiny, another day's worth of food and beverages was sent to the ships on Sunday. By late afternoon, passengers suffering from dehydration, pregnant women and some babies, including a newborn a few days old, had been taken ashore in Pozzallo. Italian media said a woman weighing 35 kilos (77 pounds) after months of malnourishment in Libya was among them. Sky TG24 TV reported that many of the rescued passengers originally are from Eritrea. On Sunday night Matteo Salvini, Italy's interior minister, said he will allow some but not all migrants to disembark in Sicily from the overcrowded boat. "I am monitoring the situation of two ships travelling in Italian waters... there are 16 mothers and 11 children who will disembark in the next few minutes, hours...," Mr Salvini told TV channel RaiNews24.

| National Ice Cream Day PSA: Beware the ice cream machine on 'Chopped' Posted: 15 Jul 2018 05:00 AM PDT  As we hunt for free ice cream on this glorious holiday, National Ice Cream Day, let us not forget that not all ice cream stories end well. Especially when Chopped's involved. The long-running Food Network show pits four contestants against each other as they compete for a cash prize. They go through three cooking speed rounds, whipping up an appetizer, entree, and dessert using random ingredients provided in a basket — you can get everything from sardines paired with watermelon to mud pie and potato chips. SEE ALSO: The absolute best and worst ice cream truck treats The dessert round decides the game, and even though there have been more than three dozen seasons of this reality show, contestants still make the mistake of using the ice cream machine. Stay away from the ice cream machine! The ice cream machine will only bring you sorrow. One of the following is bound to happen: You go for the ice cream machine only to be foiled by another contestant who got to it first, and there's only 10 minutes left before you have to present the dessert and ahhhh why did you want to make ice cream out of fruit cake anyways? You get to the ice cream machine before your competitor, and breathe a sigh of relief as you begin pouring a hot mixture into the machine. Wait! The ice cream base can't be hot. It'll ruin the ice cream. There goes $10,000. Everything seems to be going well, you've managed your time, and you've got the ice cream machine all to yourself. You put the ingredients in and move on to doing other stuff, like making a nice boozey sauce to impress the judges. You come back to check on your ice cream, and it's just soup. It didn't work. What happened? Noooooo! This time, ice cream's looking good. It's spinning in the machine and has the right consistency. You use a spoon to scoop the ice cream out and oh no, what happened to the spoon? The ice cream machine ate it! That spoon scenario really happened and is even featured in the show's "Most Serious Mishaps" video on Facebook. There are memes dedicated to the ice cream machine and its evil ways. A recurring judge on the show has even admitted Food Network only has one machine for the drama. "It's really for creating that level of semi-chaos," said chef and restauranteur Marcus Samuelsson, according to Food & Wine. "It's really like cooking on a treadmill. It's not easy at all." No it's not. Make your life easier and avoid that machine. I don't think I've ever watched anyone have a favorable outcome when using the ice cream machine on Chopped. — Say Chels (@renegadewriter) July 11, 2018 You know you're setting yourself up for failure if your in the final round of chopped and you try to make ice cream — GABE (@GabeLashley00) July 13, 2018 not listening to tim : project runway :: using the ice cream maker : chopped — this cannot continue (@woodswake) July 13, 2018 Of all the gods that govern the Chopped kitchen, the Risotto gods are second only to the ice cream gods in terms of cruelty — Mike Golic Jr (@MGolicJR57) June 6, 2018 chopped contestant: ugh my ice cream is basically soup let's hope putting it in the freezer for the last 4 minutes will help it solidify !! — liz (@peachyliiz) July 10, 2018 The ice cream machine on Chopped is bad. I stress whenever a poor soul believes they can beat the odds and impress the judges with a cool, creamy treat, it's not gonna happen. Make something else! So on National Ice Cream Day, which, like every year, is on the third Sunday of July, please take my advice future Chopped competitors: Beware the ice cream machine.
