Can Philippine Vice President Robredo challenge Duterte? Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo has been seen as a potential rival to President Duterte
Restraining psychiatric patients requires court order A court order is required for the prolonged physical restraint of psychiatric patients, Germanyʼs top court ruled on Tuesday. TheFederal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe ruled in favor of two patients who sued the states of Bavaria and BadenWürttemberg, claiming they had been illegally restrained for long periods of time against their will. Judges declared portions of BadenWürttembergʼs laws regarding the issue unconstitutional. Bavaria has no laws regulating the restraint of patients. Judges ordered the states to comply with new federal guidelines by June 30, 2019. Until then, however, they will be allowed to continue to restrain patients without a court order as they have in the past.
Extremist crimes in Germany down, number of fanatics up Experts say that Duterteʼs mistakes and midterm elections are an opportunity for Robredo to challenge him more directly. For the first two years of her tenure, some supporters of Philippine Vice President Leni Robredowanted to see her stand up more forcefully against Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Now, it looks like they might finally be getting their way. "It is becoming apparent that people will be more confident to speak up if there is another group that shares the same beliefs," she announced earlier this month. "And that’s the role I want to take, to unite those voices." Elected to be Duterteʼs number two, despite being from the opposition Liberal Party, Robredo occupies a unique role in Philippine politics. As the most visible and high-profile member of the opposition, she appears to have the ideal profile for taking on President Duterte, who has drawn widespreadcriticism for a deadly drug warand hispugnacious public attitude. But Robredo has spent her time as vice president walking a rhetorical tightrope, seeking to be critical of Duterte when necessary, but often avoiding taking him on directly. This, however, seems to be changing. Sensing a po-
litical opening ahead of the 2019 midterm elections and following several high-profile scandals for Duterte — most notably, when he referred to God as "stupid" earlier this summer, a major faux pas in the deeply Catholic country — Robredo has sharpened her criticism and is beginning to embrace the role of de facto opposition leader. "Leni has stepped up her rhetoric," Richard Heydarian, a Manila based-academic and author of a Duterte biography, told DW. "There was kind of a calculation that the ʼGodʼ comments of Duterte were going to really alienate his base, and that this is a perfect opening for her to come in stronger." Back in early 2017, Robredo tried her hand at criticizing Duterte when she told the UN that the presidentʼs bloody drug war was leaving Filipinos feeling "hopeless and helpless." Government estimates say that about 3,000 people have been killed in the campaign since Duterte took office. However, independent observers such as Human Rights Watch, have said the true total is at least 12,000 or more.
The overall news was good as Interior Minister Horst Seehofer and Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) President Hans-Georg Maassen presented their report on Tuesday for 2017. Politically motivated crimes in Germany declined by 4.9 percent over 2016 from 41,549 to 39,505. Far-right extremist crimes also declined by an impressive 35 percent, although their numbers remain higher than in 2014, the year before the so-called migrant crisis. Still, as was true of left-wing extremism, the number of people deemed potential committers of farright extremist crimes rose slightly. For that reason, neither Seehofer nor Maassen was bragging about the results of the study.

Cologne ricin plotters bought a hamster to test biological weapon
Venezuela inflation set to reach 1 million percent
The wife of a Tunisian man who was detained last month over aricin-based biological weapon plotwas also arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of being an accomplice. German federal prosecutors said the 43-year-old German woman, named only as Yasmin H, was suspected of helping prepare an act of violence and helping produce biological weapons. Her husband, Sief Allah H. was arrested on June 12 for "planning a serious act of violent subversion." Read more:Ricin — an easy-to-obtain bio-weapon from the internet Hamster conspirator Prosecutors allege that Yasmin H, reportedly a convert to Islam, allowed her husband to use her online accounts to order ingredients to make ricin. The couple allegedly then bought a hamster to test the effectiveness of the toxin. On Tuesday, prosecutors said Yasmin H. had organized also a trip to Poland for her husband in late 2017 to buy explosive materials.

ʼJunkʼ art stash may yield multimillion dollar masterpieces New York gallery owner David Killen believes he has uncovered six paintings by Dutch-American abstract master Willem de Kooning, which — if verified — could be worth tens of millions of dollars. The works were part of a stash of artworks that languished in a storage locker in New Jersey until the dealer offered $15,000 for the lot.

A worthwhile investment A de Kooning canvas, "Untitled XXV" (pictured top), soldfor a record $66.3 million (€56.7 million) at Christieʼs in 2016, while another sold privately for a reported $300 million in 2015 — as part of a $500 million sale that include a Jackson Pollock painting. Killen estimates the discovered works could sell for between $10,000 and $10 million when they are auctioned late this year and early the next. He is planning to unveil the paintings Tuesday at a party in New York. 2
The International Monetary Fund reported on Monday that Venezuelaʼs crippling inflation could top 1 million percent by the end of the year, as its economy continues to worsen. The South American nation finds itself in a political and economic crisis that has led to more than a million fleeing the country since 2015. "We expect the government to continue to run wide fiscal deficits financed entirely by an expansion in base money, which will continue to fuel an acceleration of inflation as money demand continues to collapse," Alejandro Werner, head of the IMFʼs Western Hemisphere de-
DR Congo declares Ebola outbreak over With the help of the World Health Organization (WHO) and Doctors Without Borders, the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo has achieved something that, not long ago, hardly anyone would have thought possible. Less than three months after the first case of Ebolawas recorded in the north-westof the country, the Health Ministry on Tuesday declared the outbreak over. The authorities are following the WHO definition, which decrees that 42 days – double the incubation time – must pass after the last Ebola patient is discharged. If there is no new instances of infection in this time, the outbreak can officially be declared

"We are projecting a surge in inflation to 1,000,000 percent by end-2018 to signal that the situation in Venezuela is similar to that in Germany in 1923 or Zimbabwe in the late 2000s," Werner said. over. The DRCʼs health minister, Oly Illungo, has described it as a remarkable success. "With the swift reaction from the government and the involvement of the population we were able to bring the situation under control within seven weeks," Illungo said in an interview with DW.

Swimmers warned against Baltic Sea as German heat wave approaches German health officials have warned members of certain ʼat riskʼ groups to avoid swimming in the Baltic Sea as increased water temperature poses a danger from vibrio bacteria. The health ministry in Germanyʼs northeastern state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania warned that people living with HIV, the elderly, liver patients and alcohol addicts are particularly prone to bacterial infection. Germanyʼs weather service (DWD) issued a heat warning for large parts of Germany on Monday and advised the elderly and sick people to sit in the shade, drink plenty of water and avoid the heat. What are vibrio bacteria? Vibrio bacteria live in certain coastal waters and are present in higher concentrations between May and October when water temperatures are warmer, according to theCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). How does infection occur? If open wounds come into contact with infected sea water, vibrio bacteria can infect the wounds. People may also become infected by eating raw or undercooked shellfish, particularly oysters. Elderly and immunosuppressed people are at particular risk of infection.
ter in the Pakistani general electionon Wednesday. Khanʼs election symbol, a cricket bat, is also omnipresent in Lahore, capital of Punjab province in eastern Pakistan. You can clearly tell that Khanʼs Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI, Movement for Justice) party is going to give Nawaz Sharifʼs Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) party a tough time in its political stronghold. Unlike in the West, election posters and banners are hugely important in Pakistan. They tell you which party has more funds and a greater presence in cities. For instance, it is difficult to find election banners for the Pakistan Peopleʼs Party (PPP), headed byBilawal Bhutto Zardari, son of late premier Benazir Bhutto. The PPP is all but finished in Pakistanʼs most populous and electorally significant Punjab province. The main electoral battle here is between the PTI and the PML-N.

German Turks still rooted in the east
A study has found most Turkish Germans feel at home in Germany, but maintain a strong connection with Turkey. It comes as Mesut Özilʼs decision to quit the national football team sparks an integration debate in Germany. A study from the Center for Turkish Studies at the University of DuisburgEssen in Germany has found that most of the 3 million people with Turkish roots living Germany feel more strongly connected to Turkey than to Germany.

Meet the New York Stock Exchangeʼs only female trader
On the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange, men in expensive suits are staring hard at computer screens. Men call out the numbers. Men run frantically from one stock trading booth to the next, headsets in ear. Even the cleaner here is a man. Almost inconspicuous amid the commotion, Lauren Simmons sits at the trading stand of the investment house Rosenblatt Securities. At just under 1.60 meters tall, dressed in a short skirt and high heels, sheʼs the only female trader on the floor. "I think my story is so unique, because Iʼm not only the youngest on the floor, but also a woman and a minority," says the 23-year-old. Lauren moved from a small town in the state of Georgia to the Big Apple. "I came to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) through a colleague," she says. Despite her studies focusing on genetics, she has always been fascinated by numbers. "Numbers are a universal language that everyone is connected to."

Hundreds missing after dam collapses in Laos
Hundreds of people are missing and an unspecified number are believed to be dead after the collapse of a hydropower dam in southeast Laos, state media reported on Tuesday. The accident happened at a dam in southeastern Attapeu province late on Monday, releasing 5 billion cubic meters of water with "several human lives
claimed, and several hundreds of people missing," the Laos News Agency said. More than more than 6,600 people have been left homeless after their homes in the southern part of the district were swept away, the report said, and officials in the province have put out a call for relief aid for flood victims.

Shark in a sweater: Sergio Marchionneʼs legacy at Fiat Chrysler It was an unusually macabre tribute to his importance at the helm of one of the worldʼs largest automakers: Shares of Fiat Chrysler and Ferrari dropped in Monday trading, after it was disclosed over the weekend that CEO Sergio Marchionne was stepping down immediatelyfor health reasons. Chrysler has had its share of impressive bosses over the years — among them its founder Walter P. Chrysler and the charismatic Lee Iacocca — as did Fiat with Gianni Agnelli, but few were as hard working as 66-year-old Marchionne, who joined the Italian company in 2004. He bet big and most of his gambles paid off. But Marchionne was not only head of this industrial behemoth, he also separately led spinoffs Ferrariand CNH Industrial, a maker of busses and industrial trucks and equipment — all three of which are controlled through the Agnelli familyʼs holding company, Exor. His sudden departure could expose a lack of younger talent within the company. At the very least, itʼs a lesson in not putting all of your companies in the hands of one — albeit very talented — manager. "He taught us to think differently and to have the courage to change, often in unconventional ways, always acting with a sense of responsibility for the companies and their people," said John Elkann, grandson of Gianni Agnelli and head of Exor, in a statement .

Is CRISPR-Cas9 ECJ judgment:
Worpswede: how a sleepy village turned into an artistsʼ colony Many artists sought refuge in Worpswede away from the chaos of the industrial city. With its open plains, wide open skies and sunny days, the artistsʼ colony grew quickly during the late 19th century. One of the founders of the village was landscape painter Otto Modersohn, the creator of this 1910 work. For well over a century, the small village of Worpswede has been known for attracting artists with its wide open landscape and historic architecture. But the village dates back much longer than that: In fact, it just celebrated its 800th birthday. Starting off as a small settlement of just eight farms, "Worpensweede" – as is was originally known – is first mentioned in official documents in 1218.
On Wednesday, the European Court of Justice will decide whether CRISPR-Cas9 is really "genetic engineering". In that case, food cultivated with it would have to be labelled accordingly. What is the verdict about? To laymen, the topic which judges of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) will have to assess on Wednesday in Luxembourg sounds academic: Is the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, also known as "enzyme scissors", to be classified as "genetic engineering" or not? Even among experts, the debate has caused some frowning: Hadnʼt both researchers and the media alike celebrated the discovery of the
CRISPR-Cas9 mechanism by molecular biologists Emanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer Doudna in 2011 as a decisive breakthrough in genetic engineering? However, itʼs not that simple: The issue that the court has to decide upon is anything but academic. Above all, it has a very direct effect on all of us: What kind of food will we eat in the future? And will we know what we are eating?
Man Booker 2018 longlist includes Michael Ondaatje and first-ever graphic novel A work exploring the contemporary "fake news" phenomenon is the first graphic novel longlisted for the annual Man Booker Prize for fiction. Nick Drnasoʼs Sabrina is being promoted by the publisher as "a landmark graphic novel about a missing woman, a viral video and the horrors of fake news." Chosen from 171 submissions, the longlisted books also include Warlight by Canadian Michael Ondaatje (pictured above), who earlier this month was awarded a Golden Man Booker for the best work of fiction from 50 years of the prize for his celebrated work, The
English Patient. The list also includes
four debut novels in addition to well known American novelist, Rachel Kushner, a National Book Award finalist in 2013 for The Flamethrowers (2013). "Some of those we have chosen for this longlist feel urgent and topical, others might have been admired and enjoyed in any year," said Kwame Anthony Appiah, the chair of the judges. "All of these books which take in slavery, ecology, missing persons, inner-city violence, young love, prisons, trauma, race — capture something about a world on the brink," Appiah said.

Roger Federer: World number two withdraws from Rogers Cup in Toronto
Roger Federer has withdrawn from next monthʼs Rogers Cup in Toronto as part of his strategy to prolong his career. World number two, Federer, 36, has played seven singles events so far this year as he manages his workload. He became a 20-time Grand Slam at the Australian Open in January and also won titles in Rotterdam and Stuttgart. But the Swiss lost in the finals at Indian Wells and Halle and was beaten ina dramatic Wimbledon quarterfinalby finalist Kevin Anderson. "Unfortunately with scheduling being the key to my longevity moving forward, I have regrettably decided to withdraw from Toronto," Federer said. Nine of the top 10 ranked players in the world, including Rafael Nadal and Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic, will play at the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 event, starting on 4 August. Federer was beaten in the final of last yearʼs tournament in Montreal by German Alexander Zverev. 6
Aleksandar Kolarovʼs free kick stunner secures Serbia win over Costa Rica A brilliant second half free kick from captain Aleksandar Kolarov led Serbia to a deserved win over Costa Rica. Serbia were wasteful in front of goal but did enough to secure three vital points in Group E. Another World Cup day, another sublime freekick. If Cristiano Ronaldo’s ice-cold effort tosnatch a point against arch-rivals Spain on day two was the current goal of the tournament front-runner, the Portuguese may have just met his match. Aleksandar Kolarov, take a bow. A combination of poor finishing and sublime goalkeeping had kept the scores level until Serbia’s no.11 produced his moment of magic. Kolarov’s powerful left foot is no secret, but few inside the stadium would have expected such a thunderous strike when the Roma defender stood over a free kick midway through the second half. His shot was unstoppable; a side-footed missile which screamed into the top corner of the Costa Rica net. Kaylor Navas, who kept his team in the game with several crucial saves either side of half time, was nowhere near it.
Red Bull driver set to avoid Hungary penalty Daniel Ricciardo:
Red Bull say Daniel Ricciardo will avoid grid penalties at this weekendʼs Hungarian Grand Prix despite his retirementin Germany on Sunday. The Australianwas given a penaltyin Hockenheim for using excessive replacement engine parts. His retirement with an engine problem in Germany then raised questions as to whether he would receive a further penalty at the Hungaroring. But a Red Bull spokesman said the team did not expect to be taking penalties. He said the part that failed which he refused to specify - would be "replaced with one of our quota", which means a used part that still has life in it, thus avoiding the need
for a new part and an additional penalty. Ricciardo took in Germany what is known in F1 as a "tactical penalty". This means a team who are already on the limit of the number of engine parts permitted per season - and who know that they will need to take new ones that will mean penalties at a point in the near future - take the penalty at a race where they expect to be less competitive, to put themselves in a better position at a track where they could score more points.
Tiger Woods creates golf buzz As The Open championship reaches its final day, Tiger Woods has remarkably played himself into contention for the title with a round of five under. On Sunday, Tiger Woods will contend for his 15th major golf championship after a remarkable performance on day three at the British Open. With the rain and wind gone, day three turned into birdie
bingo and Tiger Woods delivered quite the card. Woods hit six birdies, with only a bogey at the 16th dampening his charge. For the last eight years personal issues and back problems have forced Woodsʼ golf career onto the back burner. His last tournament win came in 2013 and since then the battle to return to competitive golf again has one been lost more often than won.
