The lake, measuring around 100 feet-wide, was spotted by rock climbing instructor Bryan Mestre at the base of the Dent du Géant and Aiguilles Marbrées mountains in the Mont Blanc massif range, which extends into France, Italy and parts of Switzerland. Towards the end of June, Europe experienced a sweltering heatwave that saw the mercury rise to record highs in some areas. On June 28, for example, France recorded its hottest ever temperature—114....

The mansion is an extravagant monument to the Masri family vision of a rich Palestine emerging from the economic decay of the Middle East. Masri, a flamboyant 68-year-old, has embroidered Beit Palestine with luxury trimming–fireplace mantels, statues, tiled floors–all collected from his travels in Europe. Thousands of wooden crates containing baroque and Victorian fixtures are stacked on the grounds, awaiting installation. Think Hearst Castle in the Holy Land and you get the idea....

Quentin Bowen, 41, from Richardson County in Nebraska, fell ill with the virus in May. After several days of lying low and taking Tylenol, Bowen was unable to shake his fever and an oxygen monitor showed his levels would sometimes dip below normal. Eventually Bowen went to a hospital to have a chest X-ray, which revealed he had viral pneumonia in both lungs. A blood test also revealed Bowen had high levels of D-dimer, a chemical that signals a blood clot....

In 1996, it did. Aping every other drummer in the rock-and-roll pantheon (Keith Moon, John Bonham, those poor blokes from “Spinal Tap”), Chamberlain displayed a flair for “Behind the Music”-style self-destruction. After a heroin binge landed him in jail–and killed the band’s touring keyboardist–Corgan canned him. “Adore,” the Pumpkins’ next effort, recorded mostly with drum machines, was toothless, floppy. Too much syrup on those pancakes. Chamberlain cleaned up, drove race cars for a while....

While the Indian U-18 Women’s Team grouped in Pool A will begin their campaign on 7 October 2018 against Austria, the Indian U-18 Men’s Hockey Team grouped in Pool B will begin their campaign on the same day against Bangladesh.

Now in his third season at Ohio State, Meyer and his wife, Shelley, spoke about the 31 player arrests during his tenure in Gainesville as well as former Gator tight end Aaron Hernandez, who is awaiting two murder trials since becoming one of Tom Brady’s go-to targets for the New England Patriots. The Patriots released him after he was charged with murder. “We did make mistakes,” Meyer said of his time at Florida, which included winning two BCS national titles....

The fifth episode of the new Urusei Yatsura anime series takes a slightly different track from previous episodes to focus on the relationship between Ataru and Lum. While the last couple of episodes have been incredibly rambunctious, there hasn’t been a lot of time put into developing their connection. This episode reminds fans that Urusei Yatsura is at its core a romantic comedy, in little ways that confirm that Ataru doesn’t completely hate Lum....

The report comes at a time when the US government is strongly advising other nations not to use Huawei equipment to build next generation 5G networks. Despite this, the UK recently decided to use it anyway, citing cost saving and little proof of possible Chinese interference. But this new report goes some way to suggest Huawei is already involved in covert access to networks. It claims that the US informed allies UK and Germany “late last year” of its findings, a turnaround considering so far it has declined to provide evidence of its suspicions against Huawei....

Taking a leaf out of Nintendo’s book with Yoshi’s Woolly World, Unravel is a charming new game featuring ‘Yarny’, a character made from a single thread of yarn which unravels as you play – hence the title of the game. Unravel features various environments which you’ll play in including snowy Northern Scandinavia and you’ll interact with the levels using the yarn which unravels from Yarny. You’ll be able to swing across gaps using it as a rope, attach it to a kite to hitch a ride and even bounce on it like a trampoline....

An Assembler Games forum member who used to work at the now-defunct studio recently came forward with an early development build of the game, which has previously never been seen outside of the studio and its publisher. The user’s copy of the game is incomplete and is split into three roms, boasting about 24 levels in all with about 9 of them being playable, though some levels don’t even have enemies - the majority are just test maps which take place in and around Nakatomi Plaza....

Only a week before, Ridge had been leery of raising the threat level. And last week, as he ratcheted back to Yellow–with the holidays over, some specific threats had “expired,” officials said–his agency invited NEWSWEEK into its meeting rooms to reveal why and how critical decisions were made. Many of DHS’s most serious measures had not been publicized: extra biological detectors were deployed for the Rose Bowl, other games and New Year’s celebrations in New York and Chicago....

Suddenly, the photophobic bad boy is everywhere. He directed “The Crossing Guard” and is starring in the forthcoming “Dead Man Walking.” He took the role of a death-row convict because he was “moved by the part,” and it’s already getting him strong Oscar buzz. Is the resurgent Penn more media-friendly? Asked again about Madonna, he bristles, “I hope this isn’t gonna be the point of the whole article?” No – and you wouldn’t hit a reporter with glasses, would you?...

Already eliminated from the Europa League, Unsworth named a much-changed XI at Goodison Park, where the Toffees found themselves still in the game at 2-1 down with four minutes of normal time remaining. But a porous defence - which has now conceded 16 goals in six matches under Unsworth - was breached three times in the closing stages, leaving the interim manager far from pleased after giving some members of his squad the chance to impress ahead of Sunday’s trip to Southampton....
