Jak to bude se Salvinim? Britský server The Conversation zveřejnil analýzu o Lize, Salvinim a nové politické situaci v Itálii. Salvini má prý pořád několik schovaných es v rukávu a ti, kdo rychle začali psát nekrology o konci éry Mattea Salviniho, mohou být nepříjemně překvapeni. Co se chystá? Přečtěte si analýzu, kterou převzal i proslulý britský deník Independent.
Burglars stole an expensive piece of art — a solid gold toilet— from Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, in the United Kingdom, Thames Valley Police confirmed Saturday.
In a statement, Detective Inspector Jess Milne, said: “The piece of art that has been stolen is a high value toilet made out of gold that was on display at the palace.”
Police said the burglars broke in overnight and left the scene around 4:50 a.m. BST Saturday morning. Law enforcement received a call about the burglary at 4:57 a.m. No one was injured.
The artwork, titled “America,” was created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan and was first displayed in the Guggenheim in New York City, N.Y. in 2016. The fully functioning toilet — which visitors were welcome to use — is made of 18-karat gold and reportedly estimated to be worth more than $1 million.
It had just opened at Blenheim Palace on Sept. 12, and was scheduled to run through Oct. 27.

(DUBAI, United Arab Emirates) — Yemen’s Houthi rebels launched drone attacks on the world’s largest oil processing facility in Saudi Arabia and a major oil field Saturday, sparking huge fires at a vulnerable chokepoint for global energy supplies.
It remained unclear hours later whether anyone was injured at the Abqaiq oil processing facility and the Khurais oil field or what effect the assault would have on oil production. Rising smoke from the fires at the sites could be seen by satellites.
The attack by the Iranian-backed Houthis in the war against a Saudi-led coalition comes after weeks of similar drone assaults on the kingdom’s oil infrastructure, but none of the earlier strikes appeared to have caused the same amount of damage. The attack likely will heighten tensions further across the Persian Gulf amid an escalating crisis between the U.S. and Iran over its unraveling nuclear deal with world powers.
First word of the assault came in online videos of giant fires at the Abqaiq ..
(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump planned to have dinner Saturday with the parents of an American college student who died in 2017 shortly after being freed from captivity in North Korea.
An administration official said Trump was to host the parents of Otto Warmbier, who was convicted of trying to steal a propaganda poster while in the North Korea capital and spent 17 months in prison. He died at age 22 just days after being returned to the United States in a vegetative state.
Trump’s ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, was expected to join the dinner. Officials say he is among the 15 candidates Trump is considering to replace ousted national security adviser John Bolton.
Warmbier’s parents, Fred and Cindy Warmbier of suburban Cincinnati, say their son was tortured in prison and they were angered by Trump’s comments this spring that he took North Korean leader Kim Jong Un “at his word” that he was unaware of any mistreatment.
Trump later tweeted, “Of course I hold North Kor..
Na kauzu odsouzeného slovenského poslance za xenofobní výroky na adresu Romů zareagovala slovenská prezidentka Zuzana Čaputová výzvou, že Slovensko potřebuje mít velmi jasné meze svobody projevu. Podle advokáta Radka Suchého bychom pak už byli jen krůček od toho, aby opět nějaký odborník na pravdu rozhodoval i o tom, co si máme myslet a co ne. Za velmi alarmující a nebezpečné považuje koketování naší politické reprezentace a státních zástupců se zaváděním postihu tzv. předsudečné nenávisti. Advokát Karel Hejný zase připomíná, že výklad skutkových podstat verbálních trestných činů byl u nás vždy dobový.
Mezinárodní festival filmové hudby a multimédií Soundtrack Poděbrady se na konci letošních prázdnin konal již počtvrté.

Soundtrack Poděbrady během prvních tří let navštívilo přes 75.000 diváků.
TÝDEN V MÉDIÍCH Tak neuvěřitelně zásadní věc, jakou je případný pád vlády a pokus o převrat v zemi, nelze relativizovat nějakými žvásty uvozenými slovy, že zvažuje odchod od policie. Petr Žantovský tak reaguje na slova vyšetřovatele kauzy Čapí hnízdo Pavla Nevtípila, která zazněla na serveru Neovlivní. Analytik uvádí na pravou míru i sekernický komentář redaktora Martina Schmarcze, který se pustil do prezidenta Miloše Zemana za to, že se vyslovil pro zpětvzetí uznání Kosova jako samostatného státu. Rozporuje především jeho tvrzení, že nynější hlava státu hrála důležitou roli na začátku řetězce událostí, které nakonec vedly ke vzniku státu kosovských Albánců, a připomíná, že k agresi NATO vůči Srbsku došlo pouhých dvanáct dnů po vstupu Česka do tohoto společenství.
A Florida-based search and rescue team returned this week from one of the hardest-hit islands in the Bahamas, describing the devastation sustained during Hurricane Dorian as unlike anything they’ve ever seen.
Joseph Hillhouse, assistant fire chief at Gainesville Fire Rescue, was part of a six-man team that collaborated with local emergency services on urban search and rescue missions in the town of Marsh Harbour in the Abaco Islands. The team collaborated with the other U.S. search and rescue groups, local emergency operations center and the Bahamian Police, who Gainesville Fire Rescue chief Jeff Lane says provided them with their missions and logistical support.
“[They] basically said we’re going where the damage is the worst and the resources are the least. That’s how they ended up at Marsh Harbour, which was in the eye of the hurricane on Sept 1,” Lane explains.
Lane says the team is trained to deal with covering large areas, rapidly searching for survivors and extricating them f..
