Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:30 PM PDT

Germany claims US harming EU firms with Russia sanctionsGermany on Friday accused Washington of hurting European power companies through its new sanctions against Russia that target the planned Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline to Europe. The new measures, approved by the US Senate on Thursday, include a threat to penalise companies that provide "goods, services, technology, information or support" for the construction of Russian energy export pipelines. The US bill directly spells out its opposition to the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, while explicitly stressing that "the US government should prioritise the export of United States energy resources in order to create American jobs, help United States allies and partners, and strengthen United States foreign policy".

New Galaxy Note 8 video leak gives us a closer look at the phone’s killer design

New Galaxy Note 8 video leak gives us a closer look at the phone's killer design

At this point, it's basically a race to see which phone will leak in its entirety first: the iPhone 8 or the Galaxy Note 8? Over the past several weeks, we've seen countless purported leaks of components and specifications for both devices, some backing up previous leaks and others shattering our expectations. On Thursday, the flood continued as a new video supposedly showcasing the front panel of the Galaxy Note 8 temporarily appeared online. Thankfully, Slashleaks saved it before it was taken down.

Earlier this week, we got an up-close look at what is allegedly the display of the Galaxy Note 8. As expected, it appears to feature the same Infinity Display as the Galaxy S8, with a thin bezel lining the sides of the phone's face. In the video below, we see a front panel with virtually the same design:

While the cutouts appears to be slightly closer to one another in the video than they are in the leaked image, the similarities between the two are striking. Most noticeably, the bezels appear to be just as thin as those of the Galaxy S8 -- if not thinner, relative to the size of the phone. The Galaxy S8 might not be a financial success in the US quite yet, but it's clear that the design is here to stay.

Unfortunately, the leaker didn't confirm or deny any rumors about the phone's specs, but the latest reports claim that the Note 8 will feature a 6.4-inch display, a Snapdragon 835 processor, a dual-lens 12-megapixel camera and pricing in line with the Galaxy S8+. Of course, Samsung has yet to confirm any of this, but an announcement is expected by August of this year.

Gunman who shot Republicans was Sanders fan, had run-ins with law

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 02:10 PM PDT

Gunman who shot Republicans was Sanders fan, had run-ins with lawJames T. Hodgkinson, the rifle-toting 66-year-old who opened fire on Republican lawmakers practicing for a baseball game Wednesday, was a fervent fan of leftist Senator Bernie Sanders and angered by the policies of President Donald Trump. Hodgkinson died following a shootout with police on a baseball diamond in the Washington suburb of Alexandria, after his early-morning rifle and pistol attack left four people with gunshot wounds and two others with minor injuries. Stocky, with graying hair and a well-trimmed mustache-goatee combination, Hodgkinson was a strong critic of Trump's administration and the Republican-controlled Congress.
