Three mosquito samples found in Miami Beach have tested positive for the Zika virus

 MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Three mosquito samples found in Miami Beach have tested positive for the Zika virus, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said Thursday.

 

"This find is disappointing, but not surprising," Florida Commissioner of Agriculture Adam Putnam said.

Miami-Dade County, the city of Miami Beach and state and federal partners will continue to work aggressively to prevent the spread of Zika.

Five Dead in Attack in Christian Neighborhood in Pakistan

ISLAMABAD - At least five people were killed Friday, including four insurgents, in an attack against a neighborhood of the Christian minority in Peshawar in northwestern Pakistan, according to officials.

"Terrorist attacked Christian Colony Warsak Road, Peshawar. Sec forces promptly responded, all 4 suicide bombers killed. Search in progress," said Asim Bajwal, Director General of the army's Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) in an official tweet.

Peshawar police spokesman Mohamed Usman told EFE that a Christian person had also died in the attack, and one security guard was wounded, although the spokesman cited three dead attackers.

According to Usman, the attack began at 6am local time (3am GMT) when a group of insurgents wearing explosive vests entered the neighborhood, hurled two grenades at an church and engaged in a shootout with the police and the army that lasted over an hour.

Images broadcast by local television channels showed a large number of police officers patrolling Peshawar and helicopters flying above the city.

No insurgent group has claimed the attack so far.

Pakistan's Christian minority population, comprising less than 4 million people in a country of almost 200 million, endures longstanding discrimination and has been frequently targeted by attacks over the years.

In March, 71 people were killed in a suicide attack in a park in the eastern city of Lahore.

Pakistani Taliban group Jamaat-ul-Ahrar had claimed responsibility for that attack and said it was directed against Christians who were celebrating Easter.

Friday's attack comes less than a month after another suicide attack in Quetta claimed the lives of 71 people and wounded another 128.

Argentine President Gets Extra Protection amid Threats

BUENOS AIRES – The Argentine government announced Tuesday the expansion of protection for President Mauricio Macri and other senior officials in response to an increase in threats.

The head of state and other members of the executive branch will receive round-the-clock protection when necessary, according to the resolution signed by Security Minister Patricia Bullrich.

Decisions about security needs will be based on “objective criteria,” such as the nature of the official’s position and the perception of “real threats.”

Macri, Vice President Gabriela Michetti and Buenos Aires provincial Gov. Maria Eugenia Vidal have been the target of anonymous threats in recent weeks.

On Aug. 12, protesters threw stones at Macri’s motorcade as the president was leaving the resort city of Mar del Plata following a public event.

The new regulation established three descending levels of protection.

Level one applies to the president, vice president and their families, while the Cabinet chief, security minister and security secretary are in the second tier.

The third tier comprises former presidents along with select Cabinet ministers and officials thought to be at risk.

Trump’s Visit to Mexico Mocked on Social Media

MEXICO CITY – Social-networking sites have been inundated in recent hours with tweets and posts ridiculing Wednesday afternoon’s scheduled private meeting between Republican Party presidential nominee Donald Trump and Mexican head of state Enrique Peña Nieto, the leader of a country he has heaped scorn upon throughout his campaign.

Internet memes that employed both subtle irony and course humor and mocked both politicians began appearing on social media shortly after Trump made his surprise announcement on Tuesday night.

One the most-liked was a poster of the comedy classic “Dumb and Dumber” with images of Trump and Peña Nieto, both of whom have been criticized and mocked for a lack of basic knowledge and intellectual curiosity, superimposed on actors Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels.

Also going viral was an image of the Republican nominee, who has branded Mexican immigrants as “rapists” and vowed to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, dressed from head to foot in an anti-contamination suit with the caption “Donald Trump arriving in Mexico.”

Yet another image shows Trump arriving in the country dressed as a sombrero-wearing member of a mariachi band.

Mexican political analyst and writer and university professor Denise Dresser gave her nearly 3 million Twitter followers a multiple choice question to answer.

Dresser asked them to choose one of the following options: “Peña Nieto is inviting Trump to: a) have Higa (a construction company that has won contracts from different Peña Nieto administrations) build the wall, b) talk about toupees, c) tell him about the “good things” about his administration or d) give him his (partially plagiarized law school) thesis.”

Peña Nieto, whose approval ratings have plunged in recent months, on Friday invited both Trump and Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton to come to Mexico and meet with him privately.

Iran - Killed Blogger's sister (Now missing ) WTF ?

NCRI – There is still no news about the fate of Iranian human rights activist Sahar Beheshti who was arrested yesterday at a ceremony remembering her brother, a dissident blogger who was killed under torture by the mullahs’ regime.

On Friday August 26, suppressive forces raided the family home of martyr Sattar Beheshti, who was arrested in November 2013 and was martyred under brutal torture. His family and friends had gathered at a ceremony to mark his birthday.

During the attack, the regime’s suppressive forces harshly beat Ms. Sahar Beheshti, Sattar’s sister and her husband, and arrested them and a number of participants in the event. Sahar Beheshti was transferred to an unknown location. A number of detainees including her husband were subsequently released with a summons to be called by repressive organs.

Last night the mother and husband of Sahar Beheshti went to various police stations and jails in search of her. The authorities in Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison told other members of their family and friends that Sahar was not being kept there. The regime’s judiciary and prison service in Robat Karim, Parand and Tehran are failing to accept responsibility for her arrest.

Sahar’s mother, Ms. Gohar Eshqi, is believed to be in a very poor state of health and is suffering from a heart condition.
Following Sahar’s arrest, Ms. Eshqi said: “My son was sacrificed for Iran, and I’m prepared to lose my daughter in the path of Iran’s freedom as well.”

The Iranian Resistance on Friday called on international human rights authorities to take immediate action to release Sahar Beheshti. The religious fascism ruling Iran in fear of an outburst of public anger and disgust, cannot even tolerate the martyrs’ memorial ceremonies.
