      Julian Assange fuels conspiracy theories about Democratic aideโ€™s death

      WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Tuesday floated a theory that the Democratic National Committee staffer who was shot dead in the streets of Washington last month had been targeted because the operative was an informant. In an interview on Dutch television, the Australian cyberactivist invoked the unsolved killing of Seth Rich, 27, earlier this summer to illustrate the risks of being a source for his organization. Citing WikiLeaks protocol, Assange refused to confirm whether or not Rich was in fact a source for WikiLeaks, which has released thousands of internal DNC emails, some of them politically embarrassing.

      Got a letter for Obama? Message him on Facebook.

      President Barack Obama is a bit of a night owl, known to spend the wee hours in the White House Treaty Room reading briefings, working on speeches, watching ESPN and eating almonds. โ€œIt has been a part of his daily routine since taking office in 2009,โ€ White House chief digital officer Jason Goldman writes in a post for Medium.com. Until now, Goldman says, most of the letters chosen by the staff have been handwritten letters or emails sent through WhiteHouse.gov.

      Cops capture man who attempted to scale Trump Tower with suction cups

      The daredevil climber who attempted to scale Trump Tower on Wednesday is a 20-year-old man who traveled to Manhattan from Virginia and staged his stunt in the hopes of winning a meeting with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, police said. William Aubry, chief of Manhattan detectives at the NYPD, identified the man in a Wednesday evening press conference only by his first name, Steve. Aubry said police were studying a video he posted to YouTube to understand the climberโ€™s motivation for making the risky vertical trek.

      Cannes bans full-body 'burkini' swimsuits from beaches

      The French resort of Cannes has banned full-body, head-covering swimsuits from its beaches, citing security reasons โ€” a measure some are decrying as a discriminatory anti-Muslim move that only worsens religious tensions. The ban on so-called burkinis, at the height of the French Riviera's vacation season, comes as France remains on edge after deadly Islamic extremist attacks on nearby Nice and on a Catholic church in northwest France.

      Long in the tooth: the Greenland shark may live four centuries

      By Will Dunham WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Greenland shark, a big and slow-moving deep-ocean predator that prowls the frigid waters of the Arctic and North Atlantic, can claim the distinction of being the planet's longest-living vertebrate, with a lifespan perhaps reaching about 400 years. Its extremely sluggish growth rate, about four-tenths of a inch (1 cm) per year, had already tipped off scientists that it lived a very long time, and research published on Thursday calculated the Greenland shark's lifespan for the first time. Danish marine biologist Julius Nielsen said radiocarbon dating that analyzed the shark's eye lens found that the oldest of 28 sharks studied was likely about 392 years old, with 95 percent certainty of an age range between 272 and 512 years.

      Saudi-led jets hit Yemen despite concerns

      Saudi-led coalition warplanes launched fresh air strikes against Shiite rebels across Yemen Wednesday despite international concerns over the escalation after the suspension of peace talks. The coalition, which has been battling to prop up Yemen's government against the Huthis since March 2015, hit rebel positions across northern Yemen, said coalition officials and tribal sources. "The secretary-general is deeply concerned about reports of increased fighting between various parties in Hajjah, Saada and Sanaa provinces including over the past few days," said Farhan Haq, deputy spokesman for UN chief Ban Ki-moon.

      A Man Survived a Crash-Landing in Dubai. Then He Won the Lottery

      โ€œI said, โ€˜Donโ€™t joke!'โ€ the 62-year-old Indian recounted, laughing inside the auto-body repair shop where he works in Dubai. Basheer won Dubai Duty Freeโ€™s Millennium Millionaire sweepstakes Tuesday with a ticket he purchased July 6, just before he boarded an Emirates flight to head to Indiaโ€™s Kerala state and his hometown of Pallickal. Sitting in seat 26G, Basheer said the flight passed normally for the 300 onboard until the Boeing 777-300 attempted to land at Dubai International Airport, the worldโ€™s busiest international airfield.

      Grandmother Outraged After Dog Was Eaten By An Alligator During A Family Walk in the Park

      Sue Fortenbery from St. Petersburg told InsideEdition.com that she and her 18-year-old grandson, Kevin, were taking a walk at Joe's Creek Greenwood Park when suddenly, their dog Bolt took off after a rabbit. Then Fortenbery said she heard two screams--one from her grandson, followed closely by a scream from her dog. "I knew there was a gator out there, but I didn't know it came to the bank like that," the devastated grandmother said.

      Shifting Sands Reveal 400-Year-Old Petroglyphs in Hawaii

      Shifting sands on a Hawaiian beach have revealed โ€” and then concealed again โ€” carvings that Hawaii's indigenous people made on the shoreline at least 400 years ago. Two tourists from Texas stumbled across the petroglyphs last month on Oahu's Waianae Coast on the western side of the island. "It was just a stroke of luck," Lonnie Watson, one of the visitors, said in a statement issued by the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources.

      WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange to Be Questioned by Sweden in the Ecuadorian Embassy

      Ecuador said Thursday itโ€™s ready to set a date for Swedish prosecutors to question Julian Assange inside its London embassy โ€” a potential breakthrough in the years long international impasse over the WikiLeaks founder. Assange is wanted for questioning by Swedish police over alleged sexual offenses stemming from his visit to the country in 2010. In June 2012, he sought shelter in Ecuadorโ€™s embassy in the British capital and has been holed up there ever since.
