The New York Times was taken to the woodshed after suggesting the Big Apple's official seal features a noose, with netizens rushing to inform the newspaper that the object in question is, in fact, an antiquated measuring device.

In a report published on Monday, the Times noted that New York's emblem is facing "scrutiny" and could soon see a facelift, citing its "cartoonish" depiction of a Native American man in a loincloth alongside an early American settler. While the paper accurately described some of the seal's symbolism - observing that beavers on the emblem represent the fur trade, for example - the Times apparently had a harder time interpreting the settler, who is seen holding an object in his right hand.

Comment: Oh, how low the Grey Lady has sunk.

Something to hide: Defense lawyers look to keep any videos of Ghislaine Maxwell from going public - 'highly confidential' evidence

Defense attorneys for alleged Jeffrey Epstein madam Ghislaine Maxwell want to hide from the public sensitive evidence ahead of her trial — including any nude photos and sexualized videos that will be marked "highly confidential," according to court documents.

In a proposed protective order filed Monday, Maxwell's attorneys detailed the discovery materials they believe should be kept out of public view and filed under seal in the Manhattan federal court case.

This included the "highly confidential" information, which they said should not be "disseminated, transmitted, or otherwise copied."

"Highly Confidential Information contains nude, partially-nude, or otherwise sexualized images, videos, or other depictions of individuals," the court papers state.

A Russian ex-boxer and a female world champion kickboxer have been filmed partaking in a mass brawl in which a man was killed with a sickening one-punch knockout while allegedly defending a disabled person in Barnaul, Siberia.

Former boxer Mikhail Startsev, 38, and kickboxer Liliya Vorogushina were filmed fighting in a city parking lot on Monday, which began with the duo and another woman approaching and then beating a man with his own walking stick, according to television channel '360'.

In the footage, Startsev can be seen hauling the man to the floor while Vorogushina aims kicks at the man's head. At one point all three can be seen restraining the man on the floor in a martial arts-type submission hold.

Blind opera star Andrea Bocelli slams Italian government over 'humiliating & offensive' lockdown and admits violating it

Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli, a symbol of hope during the coronavirus outbreak, said he was "offended" by the strict quarantine rules. Addressing the Senate, he admitted violating the "unhealthy" lockdown himself.

The famous blind tenor attacked the government's coronavirus response during a conference in Italy's Senate.

"I felt humiliated and offended. I could not leave the house even though I had committed no crime."

"I must confess - and I do it here publicly - that I have also willingly violated the ban [on leaving the house] because it did not seem right or healthy. I am of a certain age, and I need the sunlight and vitamin D," the singer said.

Bocelli, 61, told reporters that he has been "expressing doubts about the seriousness of this so-called pandemic."

"I know many people but none of them had ended up in intensive care. So what was all this sense of gravity for?" he asked. The singer also seemed to encourage people to socialize amid the outbreak by saying that they should "move around, get to know each other."

Portland rocked by 60 nights of riots while mainstream media sells a different story

After nearly 60 straight nights of violence, business owners in Portland are sick and tired of riots. But as their stores go under, the coastal media treats the rioters to glowing coverage and city authorities do nothing.

Portland is a liberal stronghold, and as 'Black Lives Matter' protests fizzle out around the country, anger remains at boiling point in the Oregonian city. The protests there have not been all banner-waving and slogan-chanting affairs though. Instead, droves of 'Antifa' types have laid siege to the city's Justice Center for almost two months, tearing down barricades, lobbing fireworks, setting fires and stabbing each other.

Most of those involved in the riots would probably say they're fighting police brutality or fascism, or something of the sort, but besides those injured in that fight there are other victims of the unrest - local business owners have repeatedly complained about the riots to the local media.

As reported by Cassandra Fairbanks on Saturday — A person in an SUV hopped over a curb and attempted to run over peaceful protesters holding a "Defend the Police" rally in Colorado on Saturday.

The rally, organized by the Northern Colorado Young Republicans, was in the grass and away from the street when the driver of a red SUV attempted to hit them.

"My constituents were peacefully voicing their support for police when a SUV drove through the crowd, nearly hitting them. All Americans should be able to exercise their #1A rights, free of violence," Congressman Ken Buck tweeted. "The person responsible must be brought to justice."

People are entitled to think there is an 'agenda to destroy western society': Alan Jones

Sky News host Alan Jones says with militant protests on the streets, freedom of speech being destroyed, and a virus "ripping the guts out of the economy," people are entitled to think there is an agenda to destroy western society.

"You are not about to dive into a coffin if you test positive," Mr Jones said.

It comes as five million Victorians remain under lockdown as the state grapples with a out -of-control-second wave of COVID-19, while the treasurer's economic update on Thursday outlined a grim economic reality.

US ranked second-worst place to raise a family among wealthy countries, study says

New research by travel website Asher & Lyric has found that the US is the second-worst wealthy nation in the world in which to raise a family in 2020.

The travel site ranked 35 countries that are members of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), an intergovernmental economic organisation which includes most of the world's developed nations.

"We only used OECD countries because they have reliable data in a wide range of key topics useful for this study. Our definitive 'Raising a Family Index' is comprised of 30 critical statistics from trusted international sources broken down into six categories identifying favourable conditions for raising a family," Asher & Lyric wrote on its website.

Comment: It's likely the only people surprised by the outcome of this study are Americans.

In the last few hours Krovishey had released an elderly woman, a teenager and a young pregnant woman.

Ukraine's president won freedom for 13 hijacked bus hostages last night by posting a video on Facebook urging people to watch a vegan documentary after a ten minute chat with the maniac holding them.

'A 2005 film, Earthlings, everybody should watch it,' President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in the six-second clip which was later deleted.

Maxim Krovishey, 44, lobbed a grenade out of the vehicle and fired twice at officers during a terrifying 12-hour standoff with police after he stormed the bus at around 9.25am in Lutsk, a city in the northwest of the country.

Comment: We've said it many times before: Vegans are crazy.
