Conflict resolution for such a regime cannot be achieved through conventional diplomacy. Rather, the Iranian government uses blackmail and aggression to bully its way through the international system. Recent examples are the illegal seizure of a South Korean ship in international waters or the attacks on oil installations in neighboring countries. Triggering chaos and conflict abroad and suppressing dissent at home are the two strategic pillars of the Tehran regime....

The reasons are as clear as they are intractable: what to do with the divided island of Cyprus, how to solve a flap with NATO over the EU’s new defense force–and, most important, when or whether to admit Turkey as a bona fide member of Europe. The solution? Simple, says Steven Everts of the Centre for European Reform. “Roll them into one, and you’d get a grand bargain.” All this will be on the agenda on Dec....

The 22-year-old winger missed time this season after injuring his hand in a fight — a dumb decision when Kane’s job isn’t to scrap made worse when he said he wouldn't be deterred from fighting in the future. He’s gotten hit with a civil suit, which even if it turns out to be bogus, doesn’t help with one’s image. Most recently, he was a healthy scratch Saturday night. He also didn’t appear to be all that pleased with the scratch, and certainly didn’t play the humble, apologetic sort with reporters when asked about it, as you can see in the video below....

Dementia is a health condition that causes you to lose your cognitive abilities, like your memory or the ability to make decisions. Dementia can range from mild symptoms that start to impair function to severe symptoms that cause you to depend on others to live. Dementia is more common as people age, but it is not considered a normal part of aging. About a third of all people age 85 and older have some form of dementia....

“Look, I definitely believe in taking action, I got vaccinated because of others and for my mum’s health, but how we are handling Novak’s situation is bad, really bad,” Nick Kyrgios, an Australian player and critic of some of Djokovic’s stance on vaccinations, posted on Twitter. “…This is one of our great champions but at the end of the day, he is human. Do better.” Other players have also sympathized with Djokovic’s situation, while others have said if he was vaccinated, there wouldn’t have been any drama....

The 27-year-old who endured a torrid spell under erstwhile manager Ronald Koeman was demoted to the U23 side, where Unsworth ‘had the privilege’ to help him to 10 goals in eight outings. And with Niasse back in the first team fold - but now, with the 44-year-old Englishman at the helms - he has shown no signs of slowing down after delivering a goal and a spirited 90-minute performance in Everton’s dramatic 3-2 victory over Watford....

Author Stephen King is a horror icon, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t confused with other people by those who aren’t scream fans. Well, with one other person. Steve King, to be exact, the U.S. Representative from Iowa. That confusion is simply going to grow as the “other” King, the nine-term congressman, faces an uphill battle with the GOP primary next Tuesday. Though the congressman hopes to win his tenth term, the Republican nomination for Congress is really up for grabs....

Fans of the franchise don’t know James yet, making the decision unprecedented. James was supposed to appear on Clare Crawley’s season, which has yet to film. In the giant demand for a black Bachelor, ABC seemed to listen to the ask from former contestants and viewers. So who is James? And what do you need to know about him? He Already Had Drama With Crawley We should start by explaining that he and Crawley didn’t get along, even before meeting....

The Confession Killer will take a look at not only the long list of deaths but at Lucas’s close bond and friendship with police. The charismatic man, who said he was a killer, formed a questionable bond with those around him while recounting exclusive details from the murders. The documentary series will ask questions like “Why would someone lie about being a serial killer?” and “Was Lucas really just America’s biggest serial killer, yet?...

The dog is known for witty, and sometimes cruel, remarks, particularly when it comes to celebrity culture. He’s considered a TV icon after beginning his character career on Late Night With Conan O’Brien. Some fans of The Masked Singer welcomed the addition of Triumph, while others didn’t seem to understand why Fox chose the comedic K-9 to participate. As the night went on, Triumph The Insult Comic Dog not only insulted the celebrity contestants but took jabs at the rest of the judging panel....

The U.N. court’s appeals judges rejected Mladic’s appeal. Mladic, who was known as the “Butcher of Bosnia” while a military general, is the final major official from the war to be brought to justice, the Associated Press reported. Mladic directed soldiers to commit brutal acts such as ethnic cleansing and more than 100,000 died during the war as a result. “My thoughts today are with all the surviving families of the many victims of Mladic’s atrocities....

Aaron von Ehlinger, who was elected to the Idaho House of Representatives, was extradited from Georgia and booked in the Ada County Jail on Friday following felony charges of rape and forcible penetration by use of a foreign object. Police issued an arrest warrant for von Ehlinger on September 9 but he was out of the country on what he said was a pre-planned trip to Central America. As a result, he was considered a fugitive from justice....

According to the Associated Press, Strimling, who was Portland mayor from 2015 to 2019, resided in Trelawney Building at 655 Congress Street. He received an eviction notice from Geoffrey Rice at the end of August, which stated he needed to be out of his apartment by December 1, according to the Bangor Daily News. “This is a clear case of retaliation in an attempt to break the Trelawney Tenants Union,” Strimling said to the Associated Press....

The Atlanta native and former Atlanta Hawk was likely reveling in the Hawks’ win over the 76ers on Sunday night, with Atlanta pulling out a win in a thrilling Game 7, punching its ticket to the Eastern Conference finals. But rather than praise the Hawks for their victory, Smith spent over a minute excoriating Sixers head coach Rivers — and going very, very low with personal barbs — whom has taken a lot of flak for his recent playoff coaching performances....

Thursday morning on Twitter, Graham sent a tweet to defensive end Akiem Hicks, who was traded from New Orleans to the Patriots on Wednesday. Graham’s now-deleted tweet read: “Feel blessed u got out of there. Time to go shine big dog. All the best. Good luck.” MORE: Saints’ luster is already gone | Saints’ Jordan won’t be charged in incident The tweet was only up for a short amount of time, but NOLA....

TikTok user Brittany, posting under the handle @jjemama, shared a video on October 4 showing her cheap alternative to Starbucks’ lemon loaf slices—a $1 version sold at Walmart. “I worked at Starbucks for four years and I can attest that this is the same bread sold at Starbucks and it’s only a dollar at Walmart,” she said in the clip, which has been viewed more 1 million times. The former worker showed the Walmart version on its shelf in the store, labeled as “Iced Lemon Cake....

Misiko penned a one-year deal with the club in January after being part of a successful Brewers in 2016 but it is unfortunate that his contract has been terminated even before the league commencement. Ottamax explains why he left Gor Mahia This information has been confirmed by Kolkheti director Temur Barkaia in an interview with Sportall where he also praised former Gor Mahia defender Eric ‘Marcelo’ Ouma, who joined the club at the same time with Misiko....

Jamie Petrone, a longtime employee of the Ivy League school, began ordering tablets under the school’s name in 2013. From there, she would take the tablets and sell them to an undisclosed business in New York state. The money from the transactions would then be wired to her, with Petrone garnering enough money to purchase luxury cars and several lavish estates. Authorities said that the scam lasted for eight years before she was caught....

Later that day, after her legs regain some feeling, she is returned to her own room, relieved to be back within the warm realm of a head nurse she knows. I take her a bunch of tall yellow and blue crane flowers, and she seems calmer, rousing herself to berate me for trimming the flowers with her good nail scissors. But things soon deteriorate as the national strike takes effect....

On the videotapes recorded by Peter Settelen in the early 1990’s, Diana talks about her warm feelings for her protection officer but stops short of confirming that theirs had been a physical relationship. She admits to dreaming of “giving all this up just to go off and live with him,” calls him “one of the biggest crutches of my life,” and laments, a little mysteriously, “I should never have played with fire, and I did....
