Actress Ashley Judd sues Harvey Weinstein for defamation, ruining career The lawsuit claims Weinstein smeared Judd to ruin her chance of playing a role after she refused his
Hollywood actress Ashley Judd on Monday sued Harvey Weinstein, alleging that the disgraced producer "torpedoed" her career nearly two decades ago after she refused his sexual advances. The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court accuses Weinstein of disparaging Judd to "Lord of the Rings" director Peter Jackson and his production partner Fran Walsh in 1998, a year after the actress allegedly turned down Weinsteinʼs sexual advances in a hotel room. At the time she was being considered for a major roll in the blockbuster trilogy. "With those baseless smears, Weinstein succeeded in blacklisting Ms. Judd and destroying her ability to work on what became a multibillion-dollar franchise with 17 Academy Award wins and many more nominations," the suit states. "Weinstein used his power in the entertainment industry to damage Ms. Juddʼs reputation and limit her ability to find work," the lawsuit added. Judd was one of the first women to come forward last fall alleging Weinstein sexually harassed her. The revelations led to more than 70 other women coming forward with stories of rape or sexual harassment that ultimately brought down Weinstein and the company he founded with his brother Bob. Following the revelations, Jackson in December said that he recalled Weinstein pressuring him not to hire Judd or actress Mira
Sorvino. "I recall Miramax telling us they were a nightmare to work with and we should avoid them at all costs. This was probably in 1998," Jackson was quoted as telling Fairfax New Zealand. "At the time, we had no reason to question what these guys were telling us — but in hindsight, I realize that this was very likely the Miramax smear campaign in full swing." The civil lawsuit filed by Judd does not implicate Parker. A representative for Weinstein said in a statement that the producer "neither defamed Ms. Judd nor ever interfered with Ms. Juddʼs career." It said that Weinstein had supported her role in two of his movies, "Frida" in 2002, and "Crossing Over" in 2009. A leading figure in the #Metoo movement, Judd said that any damages awarded from a trial would be donated to the Timeʼs Up legal fund, "so that women and men in all professions may have legal redress for sexual harassment, economic retaliation and damage to their careers." In 1997, upcomer Ashley Judd was invited to meet star-maker Harvey Weinstein at an LA hotel, whereupon he tried to coerce her into bed. Judd escaped but refused to be silenced. Many in Hollywood then said the producerʼs sexual misconduct was an "open secret." "There wasnʼt a place for us to report these experiences," said Judd, the first to call out Weinstein in the New York Times in October.

Turkish court upholds travel ban for German reporter
NATO and Washington worry about Russian subs
A 74-year-old has succumbed to serious injuries sustained in the Münster car rampage earlier in April. He is the fourth person to die after Jens R. drove his van into bystanders and then shot himself. German authorities confirmed one more victim of the Münster attack died on Thursday, 19 days aftercar rampagewhich previously claimed the lives of two victims and the driver in northwest Germany. The latest victim was a 74year-man from the nearby city of Hamm who passed away in a Münster hospital.
German reporter Mesale Tolu will not be allowed to leave Turkey, where she faces charges of terrorist propaganda, a Turkish court has decided. The "political decision" leaves the 33-year-old facing an uncertain future. German reporter Mesale Tolu will not be allowed to leave Turkey, where she is on trial on terror-related charges, a Turkish court ruled Thursday. Tolu said the decision was "politically motivated" and announced she would appeal. She also decried "harassment" by Turkish judiciary.
NATO foreign ministers are due to meet in Brussels to discuss increasingly bitter relations with Russia. Tensions have led the United States to move back into an Icelandic air base it left more than a decade ago. Captain Jon Gudnason, commander of Icelandʼs Keflavik Air Base for the last 30 years, chuckled recalling the brief phone call he got from US officials in May 2014. They informed him they wanted to reinstall some personnel in the base theyʼd left eight years earlier.
Judd was one of the first women to come forward about Weinsteinʼs alleged serial sexual harassment.
A German rightwing extremist soldierʼs double life One year ago, a right-wing extremist German army officer was arrested on suspicion of terrorism, then it was discovered he was also leading a double life as a Syrian refugee. The case is anything but closed. "At first I just couldnʼt believe it," Christof Gramm, head of the Military CounterIntelligence Service (MAD) told the German weekly magazine Spiegel in 2017: "Weʼve never had a case like this in the counter-extremism program at MAD."

Sweden and North Korea end talks ahead of possible Trump-Kim summit The Swedish and North Korean foreign ministers have wrapped up three days of talks on the security situation on the Korean peninsula. Have they cleared the way for a historic meeting between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un? Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom and her North Korean counterpart Ri Yong Ho discussed the "opportunities and challenges for continued diplomatic efforts to reach a peaceful solution to the conflict," Swedenʼs Foreign Ministry said Saturday. The ministry did not comment on whether thethree days of talksin Stockholm hadlaid any groundwork for a possible meetingbetween US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. "The main focus for the talks was the security situation on the Korean Peninsula," Wallstrom told reporters, adding that UN sanctions, nuclear weapons, and humanitarian concerns in North Korea were also on the agenda. Ri did not address the media during his visit.
Publisher slammed as Hitler appears in ʼgreat leadersʼ book The book "would bring tears of joy to neo-Nazis," a Jewish human rights organization has said. Adolf Hitler carries a certain fascination in some parts of the world that is largely untouched by his atrocities. Indian publisher Pegasus landed itself in hot water this week when it emerged that itʼs "Great Leaders" book for children included Adolf Hitler. Pictured alongside freedom fighters Mathama Gandhi and Nelson Mandela, the book chose Hitler as one of the "powerful world leaders who have dedicated their lives to the betterment of their countries and the people living in them." Also included in the book are current Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, controversial Burmese leader Aung San Suu Kyi and former US President Barack Obama. "Dedicated to the betterment of countries and people? Adolf Hitler? This description would bring tears of joy to the Nazis and their racist neo-Nazi heirs," said Abraham Cooper of the Jewish human rights organization the Wiesenthal Center. "Placing Hitler alongside truly great political and humanitarian leaders is an abomination that is made worse as it targets young people with little or no knowledge of world history and ethics," Cooper said. 2

Canada to deploy troops, helicopters to Mali Canada will send troops and helicopters to Mali to join a UN peacekeeping mission there, Canadian media have reported. The helicopters are expected to replace a German contingent. Canada will soon take part in its first peacekeeping mission to Africa since Rwanda in 1994, sending peacekeepers, backed by helicopters, to join UN Blue Helmets in Mali before autumn, Canadian media reported late on Friday. The commitment comes amid pressure on Canada from Germany and the Netherlands to send peacekeepers, with the Canadian helicopters expected to replace a German contingent, CBC News said, citing a senior government official. The deployment would be for a planned 12 months, according to the report.
Four jokes she considered "dirty" and a candid explanation of sex, contraception and prostitution were revealed. Using digital technology, Dutch researchers have revealed why Anne Frank once taped over two pages in her diary with brown sticky paper "Anyone who reads the passages that have now been discovered will be unable to suppress a smile," said Frank van Vree, director of the Netherlands Institute for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies, in reference to the jokes contained in the newly deciphered di-
Donald Trump signs Taiwan Travel Act, drawing Chinaʼs ire US President Donald Trump has signed a law promoting official exchanges between the US and Taiwan. The move could further strain US-China ties. US President Donald Trump on Friday signed legislation promoting contacts between Washington officials and their Taiwanese counterparts, angering China, which considers Taiwan as part of its territory. The Taiwan Travel Act will allow unrestricted two-way travel for officials from the United States and Taiwan, thus restoring direct official US contacts with the self-ruled is-
ary pages. "The ʼdirtyʼ jokes are classics among growing children. They make it clear that Anne, with all her gifts, was above all also an ordinary girl," van Vree added. Frank and her family hid in a cramped secret annex above a canal-side warehouse in Amsterdam from July 1942 to August 1944, along with four other Jews. They were betrayed and arrested by the Nazis in August 1944. land, which were cut in 1979 when Washington switched diplomatic recognition from Taipei to Beijing. The White House said the bill, which was passed unanimously by Congress, would go into effect on Saturday morning even without the presidentʼs signature. The United States still does not have formal ties with Taiwan, but is required by lawto help it with selfdefense.
Syria: Al-Qaida and IS increasingly lose territory to Assad With the exception of Idlib, Syriaʼs government has recovered control of most major cities from rebels and ter-
ror organizations. Are the "Islamic State" and al-Qaida being beaten out of Syria? With Syriaʼs civil war now in its eighth year, the "Islamic State" (IS) and al-Qaida — two of the most prominent terror organizations active in the fighting — are on the decline. DW takes a closer look at their roles in the conflict. IS drew international attention when it swept across Iraq and Syria in 2014, making Raqqa, Syria, its capital and taking control of Iraqʼs second-largest city, Mosul. In Syria, IS now only really controls some area near Iraqʼs border, as well as some parts of the countryside. The organization does not currently have a central headquarters. In October, the US military estimated that the group still had about 6,500 members. AlQaida operates most prominently as Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham, a Salafist group that is concentrated near and in the major Syrian city of Idlib.

Argentina navy loses contact with submarine with 44 crew on board
No one has heard from an Argentinian submarine for at least two days. While authorities initially insisted it wasnʼt missing, Argentinaʼs navy has stepped up its search efforts. Argentinaʼs navy lost contact with one of its submarines and its 44 crew members, it announced on Friday. Although the German-built ARA San Juan has been out of contact for two days, the navy initially did not consider it lost. "Itʼs not that itʼs lost, because to be lost, you have to look for it and not find it," the navy told a local broadcaster. However, after an initial search operation in the submarineʼs last known position, around 430 kilometers (267miles) off the southeastern Valdez peninsula, bore no results, Argentina said it was stepping up its search efforts and calling on allies for help. "We have not been able to find, or have visual or radar communication with the submarine," navy spokesman Enrique Balbi told reporters at a news conference. "I donʼt want to dramatize the issue. Weʼre lacking communication and donʼt know what happened." The incident has formally been upgraded to a "search and rescue" operation, Balbi added.

Environmentalists skeptical of ʼbreakthroughʼ on bee-friendly pesticides Critics say we need to move away from a ʼchemical mindsetʼ altogether
NASA shoots human sperm into space With the new experiment, the US space agency wants to research how human sperm cells react to microgravity — and whether humans could procreate in space. Other mammals have had little success so far. Space agencies and companies have sent many a strange object into space: pizza,lego mini figuresand even aconvertible. All have made their way into the seemingly endless world of microgravity that lies just beyond our planet. But a new experiment takes the cake: for research
project Micro-11, NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is now sending frozen samples of human sperm to space. "As we plan to travel beyond the space station with thoughts of colonization on the moon and Mars and other heavenly bodies, the question of whether or not multi-generational survival can occur — not only in animals but in humans — is a very fundamental question that needs to be addressed," Joseph Tash, a researcher at the University of Kansas Medical Center who will examine the sperm upon its return to Earth, said.
Researchers say a new discovery may help to create pesticides that donʼt kill bees. But critics say we need to move away from a ʼchemical mindsetʼ altogether. Scientists say they have made a "breakthrough" that could lead to beefriendly pesticides — but environmentalists argue that the only solution is to switch to organic alternatives. The development is the latest in theongoing debateover neonicotinoids, which are among the most toxic pesticides for bees and other insects. Researchers from the University of Exeterʼs non-profit Rotham-
sted Research center and pesticide producer Bayer AG, saytheir findings, published Thursday, are key to production of pesticides that protect crops without causing harm to bee populations. "This knowledge can help us avoid wasting time and money on pesticides that end up with use restrictions due to intrinsic bee toxicity," Chris Bass from the University of Exeter said.
Extreme weather a factor in 2015
Trump ʼhealthyʼ with perfect
mass death of saiga antelopes
cognitive score, says doctor
"Unusually" warm weather contributed to the sudden death of 200,000 saiga antelopes in 2015 — an event that had baffled scientists — according to a new study. It could happen again, putting the species at risk. Unusually high temperatures helped contribute to the dramatic sudden death of more than 200,000 "critically endangered" saiga antelopes in Central Asiaʼs remote steppe grassland in 2015, according to a new study. Over the course of three weeks in May 2015, a bacterial disease caused blood poisoning and wiped out more than 80 percent of the saiga population in Kazakhstanʼs Betpak-Dala region. In some herds, not a single animal survived. Researchers already believed the disease was caused by the pathogen Pasteurella multocida, but they were baffled by the die-off because the bacteria had likely been living harmlessly in the saigasʼ tonsils up to that point. 4
he White House doctor says Donald Trump is in excellent health following his first physical as president. The exam took place days after a controversial book raised questions about Trumpʼs mental fitness for office.

"In summary, the presidentʼs overall health is excellent," Jackson told reporters at a briefing in Washington.
Following UK, German politicians urge for measures to fight loneliness
German lawmakers have said more needs to be done to help those who suffer from loneliness and to remove the taboos around the issue. They also praised the UKʼs recent decision to appoint a "Minister for Loneliness."
Politicians in Germany are taking a harder look at loneliness and how it affects the countryʼs large — and growing — elderly population. For someone over the age of 60, loneliness "increases mortality as much as heavy smoking," Karl Lauterbach, a health expert and Social Democrat (SPD), told the German daily Bild newspaper on Friday."There has to be someone who is responsible for the topic of loneliness, preferably in the Health Ministry, who can coordinate the fight against loneliness," Lauterbach added. A discussion about loneliness in Germany was prompted by the United Kingdomʼs recent moveto name a "Minister for Loneliness." Marcus Weinberg, a politician with German Chancellor Angela Merkelʼs Christian Democrats (CDU), said people should be able to talk the issue freely without fearing that they would be seen as weak, reported Bild.

White-sand Lupa Beach reopens outside Budapest for summer From today, May 11th, Lake Lupa is welcoming sunseekers for the summer season
Launched a year ago, this freshwater facility, referred to as Budapest’s beach, features soft white sand, comfy loungers, cocktails, parties, palm trees and plenty of aquatic attractions, including multiple sites for swimming, a wakeboard and diving centre. From today, May 11th, Lake Lupa is welcoming sunseekers for the summer season. Previously marked as a prohibited zone for swimming, a Budapest pit lake is now the city’s most coveted summertime destination. This clear-water haven is divided into two revamped areas: Bay Beach for bathers on a budget, Premium Beach for more exclusive visitors. This well-equipped facility with the lake comprises Lupa Beach where, at any one time, 10,000 people enjoy a real
seaside experience along a shore stretching over two kilometres. Having received yet another makeover for the season ahead, Lupa Beach now welcomes guests not only with water and sand. Two dozen restaurants sell barbecued delights, burger and wine – even Costes is here with fine food inspired by Michelin-awarded Costes Downtown. The extensive spit jutting out into the water, aka ‘long island’, features themed bars along the waterfront.
German university hospital defends auto firmsʼ nitrogen dioxide test ethics No experiments on animals or humans can take place in Germany without a go from an authorized ethics committee. Dr. Thomas Kraus from Aachen University Hospital says this was the case in the most recent NO2 scandal. The European Research Group on Environment and Health in the Transport Sector (EUGT) "did not impinge in any way on the nitrogen dioxide (NO2) research it commissioned Aachen University Hospital to do," Professor Thomas Kraus from the hospital told the German press agency DPA on Monday. The EUGT is a now defunct organization that was funded by German carmakers Volkswagen, Daimler and BMW plus partsmaker Bosch, thus raising questions of possible conflicts of interest. In 2013, 25 healthy volunteers were exposed to NO2 pollution for three hours, Kraus said. "None of them had any negative health effects," he went on, adding that the tests were meant to measure the impact of pollutants in the workplace.

Russian accused of running spam network extradited to US Suspected Russian hacker Pyotr Levashov pleaded not guilty before a US judge after being extradited from Spain. Prosecutors claim he ran a massive computer network that sent out spam and installed malicious software. Spanish authorities have extradited to the US a Russian man suspected of carrying out cybercrimes using bulk spam emails and malicious software, US officials announced Friday. Pyotr Levashov, a 37-year-old from St. Petersburg, pleaded not guilty to the charges of wire and email fraud, hacking, identity theft and conspiracy after appearing before a federal judge in the US state of Connecticut. He re-
mains in detention. Levashov was arrested in Aprilwhile vacationing with his family in Barcelona. In October, Spainʼs National Court granted the US extradition request, rejecting a counter-extradition request from Russia. US prosecutors say Levashov ran the sprawling Kelihos botnet — a network involving up to 100,000 infected computers that sent spam emails, harvested usersʼ logins and installed malicious software that intercepted bank account passwords. According to the indictment, the network generated and distributed more than 2,500 spam emails a day and allegedly victimized thousands of people in the US.

Mesut Özil and Ilkay Gündogan criticized for Erdogan meeting
Germany players Mesut Özil and Ilkay Gündogan have been criticized for meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Both are of Turkish heritage, but chose to represent Germany in international football. The Premier League stars, who were joined by a third player, Everton striker Cenk Tosun, met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at Londonʼs Four Seasons hotel on Sunday. President Erdogan, who is up for re-election on June 24, is in the British capital for a three-day state visit, where he is to be received by Queen Elizabeth II and meet with Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday.

Autopsy confirms Michael Goolaerts died of heart attack An autopsy carried out on the body of Michael Goolaerts has confirmed that the Belgian rider died of cardiac arrest. He suffered the heart attack and fell off his bike during a race on the weekend. Remy Schwartz, the state prosecutor for the northern French commune of Cambrai said the autopsy following Michael Goolaertsʼ death on Sunday, confirmed that the Belgian had died of cardiac arrest, as had been widely speculated. "The autopsy confirms the previous hypothesis that death was due to a heart attack and not a crash," Schwartz told the AFP news agency on Wednesday. "He suffered an attack while racing. His heart stopped, and thatʼs why he crashed." The 23-yearoldGoolaerts crashed in the early stages of the Paris-Roubaix oneday classicand shortly afterwards he was found unconscious and not breathing along the side of the road. He was rushed to a hospital in Lille, but the Verandaʼs Willems team rider was pronounced dead late on Sunday. Toxicology and other tests are now to be conducted on his body in an effort to determine an exact cause of the heart attack. The results of these may not be known for several weeks.
Mario Götzeʼs omission no real surprise as Joachim Löw shows his hand Itʼs no secret that Germany have an embarrassment of riches
Despite the temptation to go with the man who scored the World Cup winner in 2014, Joachim Löw was left with little choice but to leave Mario Götze out. As the names rolled across the screen at the announcement ofGermanyʼs 27-man provisional squadin Dortmund on Tuesday, the surprises were largely those of absence rather than selection. Doubts over the fitness of Manuel Neuer and the recentpersonal choices of Mesut Özil and Ilkay Gündogannever seriously threatened their places, meaning the selection of uncapped Freiburg
striker Nils Petersen was the only real shock among a host of familiar faces. Petersen may still miss out on Russia, with four players to be cut by June 4, but the man indelibly associated with Germanyʼs 2014 World Cup win will definitely have the summer off. As indeed will Andre Schürrle, his current Borussia Dortmund teammate and the man who provided the assist in Rio.
Bayern Munich confirm appointment of Miroslav Klose as U17 coach Germany head coach Joachim Löw has named his preliminary squad for the World Cup, which kicks off in Russia next month. The DFB has extended the head coachʼs contract through to the World Cup in 2022. Head coach Joachim Löw named a squad of 27 players, who will accompany him to the national teamʼs training camp in Austria next week. This means he will have to cut four players from the roster before departing for the tournament. 6
Former Germany striker Miroslav Klose has returned to Bayern Munich as coach of the clubʼs under-17 team. Klose played for Bayern between 2007 and 2011, winning two Bundesliga titles and two German Cups. Fridayʼs announcement of the appointment ofMiroslav Kloseas Bayern Munichʼs under-17 coach came as little surprise, as the club hadconfirmed last month that it was negotiating with the 39-year-old former strikerwith a view to him taking the job. The statement issued via Bayernʼs website said
that Klose has signed a two year contract, which will take him through to the summer of 2020. "Iʼm very much looking forward to the task at FC Bayern, and Iʼll do everything to justify the faith shown in me by the way I coach the young players," Klose said. "Itʼs our philosophy to secure the services of successful and valued former players. So Iʼm very glad that Miro Klose will pass on his enormous wealth of experience to our young talents, and that he will help us as a coach," said Bayernʼs sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic.
