      Obamaโ€™s Last 100 Days: Cuba and Castros edition

      Ever since the administration of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, presidents have been judged on the successes they notch during their first 100 days. Now, as Barack Obama prepares to end his star turn on the political stage, Yahoo News is launching The Last 100 Days, a look at what Obama achieved during his consequential presidency, how he navigates the struggles of his final months in office and what lies ahead for him after eight years filled with firsts. As Obama himself is fond of noting, he also spent his two terms as father to daughters Malia and Sasha and husband to first lady Michelle Obama.

      Conviction overturned for case spotlighted in 'Making a Murderer'

      A federal judge on Friday overturned the murder conviction of one of two Wisconsin men serving life sentences for the 2005 slaying of a freelance photographer in a case spotlighted in the popular Netflix television documentary "Making a Murderer." Magistrate Judge William Duffin ruled that the guilty verdict returned by a trial jury in 2007 against Brendan Dassey was based on a coerced confession he gave as a 16-year-old youth with a learning disability. Dassey and his uncle, Steven Avery, were convicted in separate trials of killing freelance photographer Teresa Halbach at Avery's home in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin. Halbach's charred remains were found in an incineration barrel and a burn pit on Avery's property, about 80 miles (130 km) north of Milwaukee.

      French court rejects bid to shut 72 migrant camp eateries

A statement by the prefecture said the installations don't respect sanitation rules, risk fires and are a source of public disorder. Later, the prefect for Calais, Vincent Berton, announced that the state was lodging an appeal against the court decision.

      Venezuela and Colombia reopen border crossings without incident

      San Antonio del Tรกchira (Venezuela) (AFP) - Venezuela and Colombia on Saturday opened several "provisional" border crossing points for pedestrians for the first time in nearly a year as part of a progressive reopening agreed this week, AFP journalists confirmed. During three temporary border openings last month, some 150,000 Venezuelans -- suffering from their country's severe economic crisis -- poured into Colombia to purchase food, medicine and other basics. Both governments agreed to facilitate "the fastest possible movement of people, rapidly but in a controlled fashion," Venezuelan regional military chief Jose Morantes Torres said.

      100 Million Volkswagens Could Be Unlocked by a Simple Key Fob Hack

      According to a study set to be unveiled next week at the Usenix Security Conference by a research team at the University of Birmingham, there is a flaw in Volkswagen Group key fobs that allows hackers to intercept its signal to gain access to vehicles. The paper was put together by Flavio Garcia with his research team at the University of Birmingham, with the assistance of german engineering firm Kasper & Oswald. How it works is, researchers are able to use a component inside Volkswagen's internal network to obtain a single cryptographic key that millions of its cars use.

      Russian Hacking Campaign Hits Republicans, Too

      The Russian hackers who breached the servers of the Democratic National Committee struck a far wider range of targets than thought, and researchers have now tied a mysterious website hosting leaked emails, including from the Republican Party, to the same Moscow operatives who stole Democratic Party correspondence. In a Friday blog post, researchers at ThreatConnect, an intelligence firm, identified a website known as DCLeaks.com as a โ€œRussian-backed influence outlet.โ€ That website hosts leaked emails and other documents from a variety of officials, including former NATO commander Gen. Philip Breedlove, philanthropist and investor George Sorosโ€™s Open Society Foundation, and Republican staffers.
