BEIJING — Chinese pig farmers, already reeling from rising feed costs in Beijing’s tariff fight with President Trump, face a new blow from an outbreak of African swine fever that has sent an economic shock wave through the countryside. First detected in August, the disease has killed 1 million pigs, prompting authorities to restrict shipments of most of China’s 700 million swine, even though nearly all are still healthy. That has disrupted supplies of pork, China’s staple meat, to big cities while... Читать дальше...

Eric Bana knows he’s playing a very unlikeable guy on Bravo’s “Dirty John,” a new limited series based on the Los Angeles Times true-crime podcast of the same name. But he also knows it’s his job to make you — and Connie Britton’s Debra Newell — like the unlikeable John Meehan as much as possible. Or at least to perfect the “delicate calibration” of a version of him that was “not something you’d wanna turn off after the first 30 minutes.” Read the full article on The Wrap

That gave Lee a good preview of what the Raiders will see Sunday against the Ravens... Читать дальше...

LONDON — In the battle for online privacy, Google is a U.S. Goliath facing a handful of European Davids. The backlash over Big Tech’s collection of personal data offers new hope to a number of little-known search engines that promise to protect user privacy. Sites like Britain’s Mojeek, France’s Qwant, Unbubble in Germany and Swisscows don’t track user data, filter results or show “behavioral” ads. These sites are growing amid the rollout of new European privacy regulations and numerous corporate data scandals... Читать дальше...

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana legislators earlier this year quietly approved a new law meant to establish protections for "skilled" gamblers, including those who count cards when playing blackjack -- a practice made popular in films like 21 and Rain Man. Under Act 451, which sailed through the Legislature with no votes against it, a person cannot be excluded from a gaming establishment "based solely on the skill level of the person." Lawmakers at the time said that they hoped it would protect... Читать дальше...

PITTSBURGH — In a technology lab full of graduate students huddled over laptops, Marios Savvides flipped through photos on a computer screen searching for one full of people whose faces were barely recognizable to the human eye. “How about a riot?” Savvides asked. He had just come upon an image of police officers wearing helmets and gas masks and rioters covering their mouths and noses with bandannas — all trying to shield themselves from the tear-gas- and smoke-filled air. Savvides was delighted. Читать дальше...
