Millions Displaced as Monsoon Floods Hit India, Nepal and Bangladesh

More than a hundred people have died and millions were forced to leave their homes as monsoon rains have devastated parts of India, Nepal and Bangladesh.

At least three million people have been displaced in north and Northeast India, reports the BBC, including almost two million people in the northern Indian state of Bihar, and more than 1.7 million people in northeastern Assam state, a region known for its tea production.

“Many people have taken shelter on the highways, that will be the state for the next two to three weeks until the water recedes,” Mohamad Farukh, CEO of the disaster relief NGO Rapid Response told TIME about the situation in Assam State. “Bihar has better housing infrastructure, they will continue to stay in their houses or schools will operate as temporary relief shelters.”

Flooding also hit Kaziranga National Park. “A lot of animals have died, mostly rhinos,” Farukh said.

He says that he expects the situation to “deteriorate over the next two to three days” in ..

Latest Returned 1MDB Loot Includes a Vintage King Kong Poster and a Basquiat Drawing

A vintage French “King Kong” poster, a Jean-Michel Basquiat drawing, and several luxury watches are among the latest haul of returned treasures that were allegedly bought with money stolen from the Malaysian 1MDB state fund.

“Wolf of Wall Street” producer Joey McFarland agreed to hand over the items that he said he received as gifts from Low Taek Jho, the alleged mastermind behind the theft of billions of dollars from the Malaysian fund, and his accomplices, according to a filing Monday in Los Angeles federal court.

McFarland, who co-founded Red Granite Pictures with Riza Aziz, the stepson of former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, said he didn’t know that the gifts had been purchased with funds diverted from 1MDB.

Red Granite last year paid $60 million to settle claims it financed the 2013 film “Wolf of Wall Street”, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, with stolen Malaysian money.

According the U.S. forfeiture complaint, Aziz spent at least $5.4 millio..

A Residential Building Collapsed in Mumbai, Killing at Least 2 People

(MUMBAI, India) — A four-story residential building collapsed Tuesday in Mumbai, India’s financial and entertainment capital, killing at least two people, an official said. Rescuers were looking for several others feared trapped in the rubble.

Fire official Ashok Talpade said dozens of rescuers were at the site in Dongri, a crowded residential section of Mumbai, where they pulled out three people alive and rushed them to a hospital. They included one child who was allowed to go home after being treated, he said.

The building was located in a narrow lane in a congested area, making it difficult to send earth-moving machines there, Talpade said, adding that police were using sniffer dogs in their rescue operation.

Television images showed people forming a human chain to remove the rubble using their hands.

“The building crashed with a heavy sound and we thought there was an earthquake,” a local resident told the New Delhi Television news channel.

Obtěžování na baru? Sex není povinnost, na flirtování musí být dva, říká Nejedlová

Obtěžování na baru? Sex není povinnost, na flirtování musí být dva, říká autorka kampaně Respekt je sexy Johanna Nejedlová.
Nechceme flirtovací policii. Chceme lidem vysvětlit, co to obtěžování je, a pracovníkům barů a klubů poradit, co mají dělat, když někdo potřebuje pomoci, říká.
Obtěžování zažila polovina žen, většina má ale pocit, že by je nikdo nevyslechl, nekomunikují to ani samotné podniky.
Každý má hranici jinde, plácnutí po zadku už je ale za hranou, upozorňuje Nejedlová.

Greek Police Question ‘Main Suspect’ in Death of American Biologist Killed in Crete

Greek police say they are questioning the “main suspect” in the killing of American molecular biologist Suzanne Eaton, whose body was discovered on the island of Crete last week.

National police spokesman Theodoros Chronopoulos confirmed to TIME that, as of Monday afternoon, investigators were in the process of interrogating a 27-year-old man from the village of Maleme, which is near where Eaton’s body was discovered on July 9.

Chronopoulos says that the man has not confessed to killing Eaton, but that “it’s only a matter of time; we are close to solving this case.”

He also clarified that despite reports, police have not yet made an arrest, but he expects that the suspect will be officially charged “sometime tomorrow, we hope.”

Eaton, a molecular biologist working as a research leader at the Max Planck Institute in Dresden, German, was visiting Crete to attend a conference at the Orthodox Academy of Crete when she went missing. She was last seen on July 2 playing the piano in the l..

British Prime Minister Theresa May Condemns President Trump’s Racist Tweets About Congresswomen

(LONDON) — British Prime Minister Theresa May and the two men competing to succeed her condemned U.S. President Donald Trump’s berating of four female lawmakers of color but stopped short Monday of calling his remarks racist.

Trump tweeted Sunday that the liberal Democrats should go back to the “broken and crime infested” countries they came from. All four are American citizens and three were born in the United States.

May, who is set to step down next week following her resignation over Brexit, thinks “the language which was used to refer to the women was completely unacceptable,” spokesman James Slack said.

Boris Johnson and Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, the two politicians in the runoff to replace May as Conservative Party leader and U.K. prime minister, agreed.

Johnson said Trump’s remarks were “totally unacceptable in a modern multiracial country.”

“If you are the leader of a great multiracial, multicultural society, you simply cannot use that kind of language about sending ..
