LONDON -- Children young and old have made hoverboards one of this holiday season s must-have gifts. But apparent criminal elements in South London have demonstrated how the popular wheeled devices, which don t actually hover at all, can be put to use for remarkably counterintuitive nefarious purposes. Once, at least.It s unlikely, perhaps, given that video of an unmasked-man nonchalantly robbing a convenience store atop one of the devices is now being widely spread online, that there will ever be a second hoverboard burglary.London s Metropolitan Police have asked for help identifying a man seen rolling into a Co-Op food store in the London suburb of Mitcham and then rolling back out again, carrying a case of energy drinks he never paid for. Perhaps store staff were distracted by the fluores crocs hausschuhe cent blue light cast upon the floor by the thief s trendy set of wheels As the police s plea for help states: CCTV from the store captured the man s movements in and out of the store. The statement fails to note that those movements were almost taunting in their fluidity and grace. Manufacturer air max 1 s insist you can master the operation of a hoverboard in about 15 minutes.

BEIRUT Twin suicide bombings shook a southern Syrian city on Saturday, killing at least 20 regime troops, an activist group said.The early morning blasts in Daraa targeted an encampment for government forces in the city, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which relies on a network of activists on the ground.The explosions were followed by clashes between regime forces and rebels fighting to topple President Bashar Assad, said the Observatory. Its chief, Rami Abdul-Rahman, said at least 20 soldiers were killed in the blasts but the claim could not be independently verified.The state-run stanley quencher news agency SANA said the explosions caused multiple casualties and heavy material damage, but did not provide further details.The Daraa bombings come just a day after as many as 11,000 people were said to have fled Syria in a 24-hour span 151; the latest surge of refugees fleeing the civil war. The flood of Syrians into neighboring Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon was the highest that we have had in quite some time, said Panos Moumtzi stanley thermos mug s, the U.N. refugee agency s regional coordinator for th stanley cup e region said Friday.About 2,000 to 3,000 people are fleeing Syria daily, and the recent surge brings the number registered with the UNHCR to more than 408,000, said Moumtzis.The largest flow into Turkey came from the fighting at Ras al-Ayn in the predominantly Kurdish oil-producing northeastern province of al-Hasaka, where rebels were fighting government forces.

The United States expects North Korea to maintain a freeze on missile tests, and a test-fire would draw an appropriate response, President Bush s spokesman said Sunday. We do not want to have a missile test out of North Korea, Tony Snow said.His comments came amid signs that North Korea was preparing to test a long-range missile that could reach the continental United States. The North Koreans themselves decided in 1999 that they d place a moratorium on this kind of testing, and we expect them to maintain the moratorium, Snow told Fox News Sunday. The president, national security adviser Stephen Hadley and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice have been in contact with more than a dozen countries and communicated with North Korea through the U.N. represe stanley website ntative, Snow said. If they go ahead with a test, then we will have to respond properly and appropriately at the time, Snow told CNN s Late Edition. Asked if he could explain what that meant, Snow replied, No. Snow noted that the North Koreans pledged in September to return to s stanley cup ix-nation talks, which are intended to persuade the communist nation to abandon its nuclear program, and bargain in good faith. If they did so, Snow said, there was also the possibility of a parallel track that could include some conversations with the United States. We expect them to come back to the table.

As the United Nations prepared to begin a polio vaccination campaign in the Gaza Strip Tuesday, a U.N. humanitarian worker there said multiple evacuation orders by the Israeli military have been completely disruptive to the humanitarian response on the ground.

Sudan on Tuesday accepted a revised plan for a joint African Union and United Nations peacekeeping force of between 17,000 to 19,000 troops in Darfur, a senior African Union official said.African Union, United Nations and Sudanese officials held a two-day meeting to discuss a stanley cup force whose deployment would mark the final phase of a three-stage U.N. plan to bolster a poorly equipped and underfunded force of 7,000 AU peacekeepers, which has been unable to end four years of death and destruction in Darfur.Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir agreed to the package in November, but stalled acceptance of the first two phases and has since backtracked on his approval. French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said Monday that al-Bashir told him he fully agreed to the proposed hybrid force but was adamant that all of the troops must come from Africa.

DAMASCUS, Syria -- Syria will hold presidential elections on June 3, the country s parliament speaker s adidas campus 00 aid Monday, a vote President Bashar Assad is likely to contest as his nation sinks deeper into a bloody civil war, now in its fourth year. The announcement came just hours after a pair of mortar shells struck some 320 feet from the parliament building in central Damascus, killing five people, according to state TV. Assad has been widely expected to seek another seven-year term in office despite the uprising aga crocs badelatschen inst his rule. The conflict that has engulfed the nation since March 2011 has killed over 150,000 people and forced one-third of the country s population from their homes. Parliament Speaker Mohammed Laham said candidates seeking to run for president can register their candidacy from Tuesday, April 22, until May 1. I call on the citizens of the Syrian Arab republic, inside and outside the adidas originals uomo country to exercise their right in electing a president, Laham said from parliament in comments broadcast live on state-run television. Rebels said the mortars that hit near the parliament on Monday were a message to Assad that he and his supporters are not safe.

As the Delta variant of COVID-19 continues its deadly sweep across the U.S., officials say that they are keeping a very close eye on a new variant that may be able to bypass existing coronavirus antibodies.Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on Thursday tha chanclas yeezy t the U.S. is takin air max 1 g the variant, dubbed Mu, very seriously, but that it hasn t taken an extensive hold in this country. We re keeping a very close eye on it. It is really seen here, but it is not at all even close to being dominant, Fauci said. As you know, the Delta is more than 99% dominant. According to the CDC, Mu accounts for only about 0.1% of cases in the U.S.Fauci said the Mu variant, technically known as B.1.621, has mutations suggesting it would evade certain antibodies, potentially including those from vaccines. But there isn t a lot of clinical data to suggest that. It is mostly laborato adidas campus 80s ry in vitro data, he added. ...We don t consider it an immediate threat right now. The World Health Organization designated Mu a variant of interest this week, and said more studies need to be done to confirm whether the variant could evade existing antibodies.Viruses are known to mutate over time as they spread, and not all variants will be able to persist.

WASHINGTON-- The U.S. missile strikes Thursday on a Syrian air base were conducted without formal congressional approval.

A White House official said more than two dozen me adidas samba mbers of Congress, both Democrats and Republicans, were briefed Thursday by White House and Cabinet officials. House Speaker Paul Ryan, the No. 3 U.S. official, said he was among those informed.WHATrsquo;S THE JUSTIFICATION FOR UNILATERAL ACTION A U.S. official says as commander in chief, the president has power under Article II of the Constitution to use force overseas to defend U.S. national interest. The official said that the U.S. has a strong national interest in promoting regional stability, which the use of chemical weapons threatens. The official added that this justification is similar to what President Obama used in 2011 to use force in Libya. The White House also argues that the chemical weapons use violates a 2013 deal for Syria to get rid of them.
