Brazil elections: Bolsonaro to face off with Fernando Haddad in second round Far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro will face leftist Fernando Haddad in the second round of Brazilʼs presidential election, scheduled for October 28. Bolsonaro got roughly 46 percent of the first-round votes — more than 46 million ballots — while Fernando Haddad from the Workersʼ Party was in second place with just under 29 percent. A candidate needs more than 50 percent to win outright. The first-round results increase the possibility that the ultra-conservative Bolsonaro could become president of Brazil, which has not had a powerful right-wing political force since the end of military rule in 1985. Bolsonaro, a former army captain who has spent the last 27 years as a congressman, has campaigned on promises of cracking down on violence and corruption, but has also included praise for Brazilʼs former military dictatorship, derogatory comments about women and gay people, and wants to fight crime by loosening controls on already deadly police forces.
Spanish court clears ʼbaby-stealingʼ doctor of charges Eduardo Vela, an 85-year-old former gynecologist, was found guilty by a court in Madrid on Monday of having taken Ines Madrigal, now 49, as a newborn baby from her biological mother and given to another woman. The incident allegedly took place in 1969 while he was working at the now-disused San Ramon Clinic in Madrid. Vela,whose trial opened three months ago, was found guilty of falsifying official documents, illegal adoption, unlawful detention and certifying a non-existent birth. Prosecutors had demanded he be jailed for 11 years. However, the court cleared the 85-year-old of the charges because the statute of limitations had expired. Madrigal described the verdict as "bittersweet," and said she planned to appeal it at the Supreme Court.

Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences goes to William D. Nordhaus and Paul M. Romer The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm has given the 50th Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences to William D. Nordhaus and Paul M. Romer, both from the US, for "integrating climate change and technological innovations into long-run macroeconomic analysis." The two economists will share the 9 million Swedish kronor ($1.01 million, €860,000) prize. Nordhaus, from Yale University, and Romer, from New York Universityʼs Stern School of Business, were honored for their contribution to what the academy called "some of our timeʼs most fundamental and pressing issues: longterm sustainable growth in the global economy and the welfare of the worldʼs population."
Vaclav Havel Prize goes to jailed Russian activist
Chinaʼs foreign minister has called on the US to stop its "groundless attacks" on the Asian giantʼs global and domestic policies. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo at a Monday meeting in Beijing that "a shadow has been cast over the future of China-US relations." In a direct response to US Vice PresidentMike Penceʼs attacks on Chinaover military aggression, commercial theft and human rights violations last week, Wang said the US had also "stepped up rhetoric over trade tensions" after severaltariffs were slapped on billions of dollars in mutual trade. He also accused the US of making "a series of moves" onTaiwan and "other issues" that he said hurt Chinese sovereignty."These actions have affected the mutual trust between both sides and have cast a shadow over the prospect of China-US relations, which completely go against the interest of our two peoples," Wang said. "We require that the US stop such misguided actions." China and the US have
also been at odds over trade and Beijingʼs militarization of islands it claims as its own in theSouth China Sea. "On the issues that you characterized, we have fundamental disagreements," Pompeo told Wang. "We have great concerns over the actions that China has taken and I look forward to having the opportunity to discuss each of those today because this is an incredibly important relationship." Read more: US-China trade row: Should American worry? Pompeo also mentioned Beijingʼs cancellation of a meeting between US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and his Chinese counterpart in Beijing later in October. Pompeo, on the final leg of an Asian trip focused on theNorth Korean nuclear issue, told Yi that "significant progress" had been made during his visit to North Korea toward an agreement that would see Pyongyang give up its nuclear weapons.

Two ships collide in Mediterranean near Corsica The collision between the Tunisian and Cypriot ships spilled a trail of pollution stretching 4 kilometers across the water. Italy and France have sent ships to assist with cleanup efforts. Two cargo ships collided in the Mediterranean Sea near the island of Corsica on Sunday, causing an oil spill, coastal authorities said. The Ulysse, operated by the Tunisian operator CTN, ran into the Cyprus-based CLS Virgina while it was anchored about 30 kilometres (20 miles) off the northern tip of the island at around 7:30 a.m. local time, the regional naval authority said in a statement. Read more: Time to clean up the ocean garbage dump No one was injured but "the collision caused considerable damage, with an opening several meters long in the CLS Virginiaʼs hull," the statement said. The spill created a trail of pollution 4 kilometers long and several hundred meters wide, heading away from Corsica to the northwest, toward the French and Italian mainland, the statement continued.
Vietnamʼs dog meat culture clashes with modern tastes Hoang has been eating dog meat since he was young. He canʼt imagine there will be a time that he wonʼt be eating it at least twice a month. However, Vietnamese officials announced in September that dog and cat meat should no longer be served in the inner districts of the capital city Hanoi because itʼs offensive to tourists and can spread diseases like rabies. Read more: Illegal dog meat trade raises moral questions Dog meat lovers and restaurant owners fear that the government will try to expand the ban and decide to officially forbid eating dog and cat meat entirely. "I donʼt see how they can ban it. The demand is just too high," Hoang said at a restaurant in Vietnamʼs largest metropolis, Ho Chi Minh City. In a small alley in Ho Chi Minh City, at least four restaurants serve dog meat, or Thịt chó. People gather around small tables to dine on the canine meat, complementing it with rice wine or beer. Hoang, who declined to give his full name, is sitting at a table with three good friends. "For us itʼs a tradition to eat dog meat. Itʼs just as normal as eating seafood or chicken," he told DW. 2
Bolsonaro to face off with Fernando Haddad in second round Brazil elections:
Far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro is in talks with other lawmakers to gain support ahead of the second-round run-off election against leftist Fernando Haddad. His party has not garnered enough seats to rule alone. Far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro will face leftist Fernando Haddad in the second round of Brazilʼs presidential election, scheduled for October 28. Bolsonaro got roughly 46 percent of the first-round votes — more than 46 million ballots — while Fernando Haddad from the Workersʼ Party was in second place with just under 29 percent.

China says Interpol chief Meng Hongwei under investigation for bribery Interpol President Meng Hongwei, who had gone missing in late September, is under investigation for bribery and other crimes, the Chinese Security Ministry announced on Monday. Meng is accused of "accepting bribes and is suspected of violating the law," the ministry said in a statement. It also hinted at a political dimension by stating Meng was being probed because of his own "willfulness and for bringing trouble upon himself." Meng, a senior security official in China as well as the first Chinese head of Interpol, has beenmissing since September 25 while on a trip to his native country. On Sunday, Chinaʼs anti-graft body had said that "Public Security Ministry Vice Minister Meng Hongwei is currently under

China has been cracking down on corruption under President Xi Jinping. Interpol later said Meng had resigned as president of the international police organization with immediate effect. It named South Korean national Kim Jong Yang, who was Senior Vice-President, as acting president.

Asia Bibi: Pakistan top court hears blasphemy appeal amid Islamist threats On Monday, Pakistanʼs Supreme Court began the hearing of Asia Bibiʼsfinal appeal against her 2010 death penalty. The three-judge bench said it has reserved the verdict on the appeal, however the judges did not say when they will announce it. If the top court upholds her death sentence, the only recourse for the 53-year-old would be toappeal to the countryʼs president for clemency. In 2014, her death sentence was upheld by the Lahore High Court. Rights group Amnesty International dubbed the verdict a "grave injustice." Religious extremists in Pakistan, particularly the Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP) group, have warned the authorities against reversing the blasphemy verdict."If there is any attempt to hand her [Bibi] over to a foreign country, there will be terrible consequences," TLP said in a statement.
ready heightened tensions across the Middle East soaring, asTehran points its finger at the United States and its Gulf Arab allies. The rare attack claimed by Arab separatists killed 12Revolutionary Guard (IRGC)members and 13 others in the southwestern city of Ahvaz, capital of oil-rich Khuzestan province, which is home to Shiite Iranʼs Sunni Arab minority. It was the deadliest attack in the country in nearly a decade. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei blamed "mercenary terrorists" who carried out a crime in "continuation of the conspiracies by the US-backed regimes in the region," while the IRGC under his command vowed "deadly and unforgiving revenge," if need be abroad. Iran did not name a particular Arab country, but the accusations appeared to be aimed at regional rivals Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.

IPCC 1.5 C degree report points to high stakes of climate inaction The UNʼs scientific body on climate change says the world could still stay below 1.5 C degrees of warming. Although impacts at 2 C degrees are likely to be more serious than anticipated, political action remains elusive. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has released a highly anticipated report that reveals a glimpse of Earth half a degree Celsius (0.5 C) warmer than it is today; and outlines what we must do to keep the global temperature from rising any higher. With the 2015 Paris Agreement, the word committed to keeping global warming below 2 C (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels, and preferably below 1.5 C. According to the report re-
Bulgarian broadcast journalist raped and murdered A television journalist was brutally murdered in the northern Bulgarian town of Ruse, prosecutors said Sunday. Viktoria Marinova, who reported on an investigation into alleged corruption involving European Union funds, died from blows to her head and suffocation, regional prosecutor Georgy Georgiev said. The 30-year-oldʼs body was found in a park on Saturday, Georgiev said. "Her mobile phone, car keys, glasses and part of her clothes were missing," Georgiev said. Bulgarian Interior Minister Mladen Marinov said there was no evidence to suggest that the murder was linked to her work. Marinova was a board member of the Ruse-based TV station TVN. She recently reported on an investigation by a group of Bulgarian journalists into companies involved in EU-funded infrastructure projects administered by local authorities. But not everyone believes her death is unconnected to her work. Daniel Kaddik, media expert and head of the Friedrich Naumann Foundationʼs office in Bulgaria, told DW that the situation for press freedom in the country is so dire that many citizens immediately thought a political motive was likely behind the murder.
leased early Monday, the difference between these two goals is far more profound than the diminutive difference suggests, and would potentially spare hundreds of millions of people from poverty. At 1.5 C we can expect to see an ice-free Arctic summer once a century, according to the report. At 2 C, that risk shoots up to once every decade. Under the 2 C scenario, sea level rise is expected to be 10 centimeters (4 inches) higher than under the 1.5 C scenario.
Berlin and Beyond: Oh Oktoberfest!
Bertolt Brecht is alleged to have once said the best thing about his native Augsburg was the train line to Munich. The words have long been contested, not least by his hometown, but it hardly seems to matter, since it was neither one of those Bavarian cities, but ultimately Berlin, that he chose to make his permanent home. I get that. My first ever experience of Germany was Bavarian. Augsburgian, in fact. I spent 18 months there, much of it plotting to leave. Though I appreciated the beauty of the Alpine peaks
and shimmering lakes, the wooden crosses and polished villages and towns left me cold. I preferred what were, at that time at least, the old East Berlin streets lined with crumbling, bullet-pocked facades. So I moved here, to a building that had been touched, for many decades, by nothing but time. Iʼve been back to Bavaria often enough since, and Iʼm happier to sample the region as a visitor. And at this time of year, I can almost visit without actually leaving the German capital.
Financial Times editor given one week to leave Hong Kong Outraged Hong Kong media and legal groups pushed the government on Monday to provide an explanation for why a Western journalist had his visa renewal denied.

Aircraft makers are optimistic about Farnborough despite Brexit The Farnborough Airshow is a major trade venue for the aeronautical industry. As manufactures set up their displays their thoughts hover between anticipation of the next big order and fears of Brexit says Andreas Spaeth. The global aviation industry will come together on Monday at the Farnborough airfield southwest of London for its biennial industry fair — the second largest in the world after the Paris Air Show. The UK has traditionally been one of the worldʼs leading aviation countries and the Farnborough trade fairʼs roots date all the way back to 1920. It moved to its current location in 1948.

Indiaʼs currency tumbles amid rising oil prices The rupee has dropped over 12 percent against the US dollar since the beginning of 2018, earning it the unfortunate distinction of Asiaʼs worst performing currency this year. Economists blame risingglobal crude prices for the slide. India imports 80 percent of its oil needs and soaring prices have blown a hole in the nationʼs finances. The country also imports huge quantities of items like gold and electronics, swelling its import bill further. Indiaʼs current account deficit (CAD) will also likely widen to 2.8 percent of GDP in financial year 2018 — up from 1.9 percent last year — according to consultancy Nomura Research Institute. CAD is a measure of the flow of goods, services and investments in and out of the country. Still, macroeconomic problems resulting from a higher CAD and depreciating rupee are not Prime Minister Narendra Modiʼs biggest concerns. His administration is more worried about growing public discontent due to the rise in petrol and diesel prices. 4
Illegal logging, mining threaten an Amazon river community In Brazil, indigenous and traditional communities are fighting for their land in the face of threats from big businesses, mining and environmental destruction. In some cases, the peoplesʼ very survival is at stake. In early 2018, Ageu Lobo Perreira was on the run. Heʼd received word that his life and the lives of two other members of the traditional Amazon riverside community he leads were in danger. The warning came after Perreira and others from the Montanha-Mangabal settlement that is scattered along theTapajos River near the northern Brazilian city of Itaituba, set out to mark their communityʼs governmentrecognized boundaries. Thatʼs when they found evidence of illegal mining on their land, including contamination of water from residue produced by
Foreign investment in the United States of America down sharply Foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States plunged by a staggering 32 percent in 2017 year on year, the US Bureau of Economic Analysis reported. Investment totaled $259.6 billion (€221.2 billion),with the figure representing the second year of declineafter a peak in 2015 when foreign investorsʼ expenditure in the US hit $439.5 billion. Last year, most foreign investments in the US came from neighboring Canada which contributed $66.2 billion. European Union member states accounted for 40 percent of the 2017 FDI total. According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the drop in foreign investment in the United States is part of a global trend. Not just a US problem OECD researchers noted that FDI levels were down 18 percent worldwide in 2017.

gold extraction. Perreira told DW the miners saw the demarcation process as a threat to their livelihood and sent a message to say they would kill community leaders who stood in the way of their activities. "In the first stage of the process, illegal loggers confronted us," said the community leader. "In the second, we ran into artisanal miners. They saw that their activities werenʼt viable any more, and so they started threatening us." Perreira spent a month in hiding, during which time the federal police began questioning artisanal miners. This increased tensions.
Extreme weather threatens African society and economy
Drought in the Horn of Africa,flooding in East Africa,mudslides in Sierra Leone, snow in high-altitude areas of the Sahara desert. News ofextreme weather patterns across Africais increasingly frequent. Peter Johnston, a climate scientist at the University of Cape Townʼs Climate System Analysis Group (CSAG) in South Africa, said while it was impossible to look at individual weather events andattribute them to climate change, a pattern was emerging. "The fact that we are getting a warmer planet and thatʼs impacting on the climate, we fully expect to have more extremes. Thatʼs a signal of climate change," he told DW. "But we canʼt say that this or that extreme is due to climate change. The increased frequency of these extreme weather patterns is, however, the result of climate change."

Insect pet food to offset carbon pawprint Time to eat the dog?
As meat-addicted dogs and cats threaten to eat us to extinction, some pet food startups are pioneering sustainable puppy snacks based on high-protein, low-emission insects. I still love my dog. Even now I know heʼs an indulgence the planet cannot sustain for much longer. A spate of recent research has confirmed that our cuddly, carbonintensive besties have become an environmental hazard. I know. Itʼs depressing. Again; I love my dog. A new Berlin pet-food brand with the slogan "insect power" is offering hope to dog lovers the world over. By feeding your canine high-protein fly larvae as opposed to CO2spewing cow innards, your pupʼs outsized carbon pawprint could be slimmed down overnight. The brainchild of Canadian former veterinarian Veronique Glorieux and
Gema Arpacio from Spain, Eat Smallʼs raison dʼetre is simple: A serving of dog food based on fly larvae-derived protein generates just 1 gram of greenhouse gases compared to 1,000 kilos of CO2 for the protein equivalent beef serve (1 kilo). This is partly because insects require far less food, water and space — and donʼtproduce methane. A 2017 study titledEnvironmental impacts of food consumption by dogs and cats by Gregory Okin, a geographer at UCLA, noted that the 163-odd million dogs and cats in the United States consume around 20 percent of the calories of humans.
Million-dollar Banksy ʼBalloon Girlʼ artwork self-destructs at auction A painting by thesecretive British artist Banksyshredded itself moments after it was sold at auction for a million British pounds ($1.3 million). The painting was a copy of his famous image "Balloon Girl," which depicts a young girl reaching for a red heartshaped balloon that has blown away. It originally appeared in London in 2002, and Bansky has since reimagined it for several political causes including in support of Syrian refugees and against the Conservative party in the UKʼs 2017 election. It was voted the UKʼs
best-loved work of art in 2017. This version of Balloon Girl was the final item at Sotheby’s in London on Friday night . After it was sold, onlookers gasped as the bottom of the painting appeared to be sucked into a shredding machine hidden at the bottom of the frame. Ahead of the auction, Sothebyʼs had noted that the ornate frame was "an integral element of the artwork chosen by Bansky himself." The artist posted a video of the incident on Instagram, with the caption "going, going, gone…"
Sans Forgetica, the new font that helps your memory Australian researchers have created a font that aids memory recall, a Melbourne university announced this week. The fontSans Forgeticawas developed by a trio of designers and researchers specializing in typography and behavioral science at RMIT University in Melbourne. The design is based on a font called Albion, but with heavy modifications to reduce familiarity. The font is back-slanted and includes distinctive gaps that engage the brain, improving recall. RMIT Behavioral Business Labʼs Janneke Blijlevens said normal fonts were very familiar. "Readers often glance over them and no memory trace is created," said Blijlevens. But she warned that if a font is too outlandish the brain struggles to process the text and the information is not retained. "Sans Forgetica lies at a sweet spot where just enough obstruction has been added to create that memory retention."

A new exhibition celebrates 100 years of Budapest’s Gellért Hotel A recreated Baroque-style guest room, photos of the building taken during World War II and Communist-era posters reflect the history of Budapest’s most legendary hotel, the Gellért. A new exhibition at the Museum of Commerce & Catering celebrates the centenary of this institution which opened on 24 September 1918. Attached to the hotel is Budapest’s Art Nouveau Gellért Baths, whose outdoor wave pool, also illustrated at the museum, was the first of its kind in the world. Tucked away in the cobblestoned district of Óbuda, the former residence of Hungarian writer Gyula Krúdy is now home to a charming museum. Here, permanent displays include old-fashioned shop interiors illustrating the history of commerce and catering. This same building also hosts relevant seasonal exhibitions, such as the recently opened Gellért 100 to commemorate the centenary of the Gellért Hotel, a splendid Art Nouveau landmark towering above the Buda riverfront. Opened during the turmoil of World War I, during its long history, the Gellért has accommodated the likes of former US president Richard Nixon and the Dalai Lama. They both enjoyed the hotel’s fine facilities that are now brought to life through historic objects and images currently on show at the museum.

Lewis Hamilton wins Japanese GP & closes on fifth world title
Lewis Hamilton moved to the brink of a fifth World Championship with a lights-to-flag Japanese Grand Prix victory. Mercedesʼ Hamilton was dominant as title rival Sebastian Vettel ran into trouble attempting to gain ground from eighth place on the grid. Vettel spun to the back after colliding with Max Verstappen when trying a move for third place at the difficult Spoon Curve - but recovered to finish sixth. The result means Ferrariʼs Vettel is 67 points behind Hamilton. The Briton will secure the title at the US Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, in two weeksʼ time if he wins the race and Vettel is lower than second, or if Hamilton scores eight more points than him.
John Terry: Former England and Chelsea captain retires from football
Former England and Chelsea captain John Terry has retired from football. Terry, 37, has been without a club since leaving Championship side Aston Villa in the summer. The defender made the announcement onhis Instagram account,saying: "After 23 incredible years as a footballer, I have decided now is the right time for me to retire from playing." Terry, who earned 78 England caps, left Chelsea in 2017 after two decades at the London club. He won five Premier League titles, five FA Cups and a Champions League title in his time at Stamford Bridge, becoming the clubʼs most decorated player. The centreback also won five league cups and a Europa League in more than 700 appearances for Chelsea. 6
London Broncos have long-term ambition to win Super League title
Mo Farah claims first marathon win in Chicago
Promoted London Broncos must have the ambition to win Super League in the future, says head coach Danny Ward. The Broncos will be back in the top flight in 2019 afterbeating Toronto Wolfpack 4-2 in the Million Pound Gameon Sunday. "We need to make it work, have a five-year plan of where we want to be," Ward told BBC Radio London. "Next year is going to be tough but we want a long-term vision to make London the best club in the country." He added: "We donʼt just want to compete in Super League, but win it. We are not there just to survive." Ward, who took charge following the departure of Andrew Henderson at the end of last season, described their victory over the Wolfpack in Canada as "one of the proudest moments" of his career. "What a performance, what a day and what an achievement - I am still on a massive high," he said on their return to England. "To lead the club into the Million Pound Game and win promotion is one of my biggest ever achievements."
Farah negotiated some wet conditions in Chicago
Great Britainʼs Mo Farah claimed his maiden marathon win in only his third race with victory in Chicago. The 35-year-old, who wasthird in this yearʼs London Marathon,secured a new European record with a time of two hours, five minutes and 11 seconds. Farah, competing in his first marathon in the US, burst clear of Ethiopiaʼs Mosinet Geremew in the final half-mile in damp conditions in Illinois. He is the first British man to win the Chicago race since Paul Evans in 1996. Farah, a six-time world champion and double Olympic champion at both 10,000m and 5,000m, retired from the track in August 2017 to focus on
road racing. In London in April he clocked 2:06.21 to beat Steve Jonesʼ 33-year-old British record, while last month he won a recordfifth successive Great North Run. Farahʼs former training partner and defending champion Galen Rupp recorded the same time as Farah posted in London in finishing fifth in Chicago on Sunday. "It was great to run with Galen, who won last year, then to be able to come back and win it for myself," said Farah, who ran 2:08:21 on his marathon debut when finishing eighth in London in 2014.
Mbappe has scored 11 goals in nine games so far this season France World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe scored four goals as Paris St-Germain maintained their 100% winning start in Ligue 1 by thrashing Lyon. Mbappeʼs goals came in a 13-minute second-half spell, netting his first with a low strike off the post. He slid in his second, converted a cool finish for his hat-trick and stroked home his fourth from close range. Neymarʼs penalty put PSG ahead, with home defender Presnel Kimpembe and Lyon midfielder Lucas Tousart both
sent off. France international Kimpembe was given a straight red card by the referee after consultation with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR), who advised a dismissal as the defender had caught Tanguy Ndombele in the shin with his studs. Tousart was sent off for a second bookable offence on the stroke of half-time after hauling down Mbappe. Thomas Tuchelʼs side, champions in five of the last six seasons, have won all nine league games so far and are eight points clear of second-placed Lille.
