Saudi Arabia Turns Off the U.S. Oil Tap
At last, Saudi Arabia seems to be doing what it takes to reduce the world's most visible oil glut: the one in the U.S. Unfortunately, its renewed vigor comes as OPEC's deal to reduce excess crude stockpiles starts to show signs of unraveling elsewhere, a subject that will be wrestled with by the group's oil ministers as they and other producer nations meet in St Petersburg on Monday. Weekly U.S. crude oil imports from Saudi Arabia have fallen sharply since early June Data published last week by the U.S. Energy Information Administration show that imports from Saudi Arabia in the week to July 14 fell to their lowest for seven years: just 524,000 barrels a day.

I've been test-driving cars lately. At certain times, I get the craving for the new-car smell and the salesperson's cheery patter. Well, the former, at least. Actually, that's almost unfair.

Having test-driven more than half a dozen cars recently, I've not received one phone call or email to try and entice me to sign something and handover a large check.

U.S. NewsweekFox News: 'Gypsies' Are Threatening America, Defecating Everywhere and Beheading Chickens, Tucker Carlson Warns

Kim Kardashian Wore a Really Sparkly, Sheer Skirt - and Just a Bra as a Top
The Balmain army was out in full force on Thursday night to celebrate the opening of its Flagship Los Angeles boutique , as well as the release of a collaboration with Beats By Dre . For the party, held at the new Melrose Place outpost, a number of A-listers joined the French brand’s creative director Olivier Rousteing in his designs, including Kerry Washington , Hailee Steinfeld, Kim Kardashian West , and more. However, there was one Balmain loyalist that was noticeably missing. Kylie Jenner , who serves as the face of the campaign for the special edition headphones, skipped. According to Snapchat, she was driving around Calabasas at the time of the event. While the reality star’s makeup was done, selfies show her wearing a white zip-up hoodie, which definitely didn’t mesh with the Balmain dress code: tight, leather, fringe, sheer.
