Reince Priebus didn't hold back.
Minutes after the close of Wednesday's debate, the Republican National Committee chairman leveled extraordinary criticism at the debate's host network, echoing his candidates on stage.

"I’m proud of our candidates for pretty much sticking together. I'm very disappointed in the moderators, and I'm very disappointed in CNBC."

Revealed... the 116 things that cause CANCER - according to world health experts


  • The warning saw it added to the list of items classified as carcinogenic to humans
  • WHO revealed processed meat is as big a cancer threat as cigarettes
  • Experts classed bacon, salami and smoked ham as being carcinogenic 
  • Here we reveal the 115 things also in the same category - group one, those which are deemed to cause cancer 
  • Includes smoking, sunbeds, arsenic and asbestos as well as hepatitis B and C, HIV the Epstein-Barr virus and working as a painter 

  • Bacon, burgers and sausages were this week deemed to be as big a cancer threat as cigarettes, according to global health chiefs.
    The warning saw processed meat added to the list of items classified as carcingogenic to humans by the World Health Organisation. 
    It means dietary favourites, including salami, chorizo and smoked ham, rank alongside arsenic and asbestos, when it comes to the potential cancer risk.  
    Officials said just 50g of processed meat a day – less than one sausage – increases the risk of bowel cancer by almost a fifth.

    The Saudi government is planning to resume the flogging of a blogger who they said insulted Islam. The blogger, Raif Badawi nearly died when he was flogged the last time. Raif, who is in prison, was sentenced to 1,000 lashes & 10 years in prison for insulting Islam in a post he shared on social media.

    His wife, Ensaf Haidar, who lives in Canada, told reporters yesterday that the Saudi authority was planning to resume the flogging soon at the prison where he is being held. She said Raif is in 'a poor condition', and was suffering from high blood pressure and was mentally very stressed. 

    Prince Harry's hug with a hero as he salutes wounded veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan and meets Michelle Obama to launch Invictus Games

    Hug for a hero: Prince Harry embraces US Marine Sergeant Roderic Liggens as he launches the Invictus Games at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, today, with First Lady Michelle Obama. The eight-year veteran, a father of one, is being treated for mental health issues





































    Prince Harry hugged a wounded hero today as he hailed American and British veterans at the launch, with First Lady Michelle Obama, of the Invictus Games 2016.

    The prince, a veteran of the war against the Taliban, put his arms round US Marine Sergeant Roderic Liggens as he and Mrs Obama toured the USO Warrior and Family Center at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, close to Washington D.C.
    His hug with Sgt Liggens came as he spoke of the need for more help for those suffering 'invisible injuries', including the Marine, who is an eight-year veteran being given behavioral therapy at the center.
    Those traumatized by war were also the theme of Mrs Obama, who was supported by Dr Jill Biden, vice-president Joe Biden's wife as the three launched the 2016 Invictus Games. 
    The games, for wounded service personnel of both countries and others, first took place in London last year. They are based on the Warrior Games which took place in Colorado in 2013.
    Harry, whose sister-in-law the Duchess of Cambridge has long championed mental well-being, said: 'One thing we have to talk about more is breaking down these barriers around so-called invisible injuries, like post-traumatic stress, just as we have for physical injuries like the loss of a limb.

    Teen suffers horrific injuries after late night attack (photos)


    Danny Beardmore suffered a fractured cheekbone, eye socket and a broken nose after he became involved in an argument. The 19-year-old was out with his girlfriend when he became involved in an altercation with some men and was assaulted close to the Cross Axes pub, in Great Harwood.
    PHOTO: Taylor Gammel, 19, was missing for hours and police believed she was able to sleepwalk for nine miles.
    A Colorado woman told police she has no memory how she got nine miles from her Denver, Colo., home, even though she was found in her pajamas and with no shoes.
    Taylor Gammel, 19, was missing for hours on Tuesday morning before she was found or rather "woke up" nine miles from her home, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
    "She came out of a sleepwalking state and she was on the side of the road and recognized where she was," Jefferson County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Mark Techmeyer told ABC News.
    Gammel was reported missing by her parents around 6 a.m. Tuesday, though she hadn't been seen since 10 p.m. the night before when she went to bed.
    Techmeyer said Gammel was wearing sweatpants, a t-shirt and socks when she was found. Techmeyer said there's a chance that Gammel might have been able to take a bus part of the way, but without an ID, wallet or money, he doubts that was possible.
    Dr. Shlini Paruthi, a board-certified sleep specialist and associate professor of pediatrics and internal medicine at St. Louis University, said Gammel's nine-mile walk is not unheard of.
    "It’s a subconscious state and for the most part [sleepwalkers] do look awake…they have their eyes open and they have a glassy look to their eyes," explained Paruthi. "They can do simple behaviors and walk down steps. They can do routine behaviors…kids will urinate in the wrong place or they wake up in the wrong place."
    Paruthi said some people will even sleep eat or sleep drive without ever waking.
    "This is something that can be so scary for the person when they find out what happened," Paruthi said.
    Paruthi said sleepwalking is most common in young children but that it can happen to people at any age. Paruthi said loud noises, sleep apnea or heartburn can cause a teen or adult to start sleepwalking.
    Paruthi said it's key for a patient with sleepwalking problems to take safety steps such as installing door or window alarms, so that either the sleepwalker or their family will be alerted if they try to make a break for it. She also said it's important for the family to lock up anything dangerous such as knives, guns or even car keys if a family member is sleepwalking around the house.
    As for the urban legend that you should never wake a sleepwalker, Paruthi said it's usually safe to wake up a sleepwalker as long as it's gently. She did, however, emphasize that a sleepwalker can occasionally be violent upon waking.
    "I think the most important thing is certainly realizing that there are safety measures that all family members can take," said Paruthi.

    Singer Phil Collins Is Coming Out of Retirement: 'The Horse Is Out of the Stable'

    "I'm no longer officially retired," he told Rolling Stone in an article published today. "The horse is out of the stable and I'm raring to go."

    Baby born without a brain amazes doctors by celebrating his second birthday - and says 'mummy' for the first time

    When two-year-old Aaron said 'Mummy', Emma, from Lanarkshire, Scotland, said it seemed like a miracle as her son was born with only the tiniest part of a brain





































    For any mother, hearing their baby's first word is a momentous occasion. But for Emma Murray, it was a moment she thought would never happen with her youngest child Aaron.

    When the two-year-old said 'Mummy', Emma, from Lanarkshire, Scotland, said it seemed like a miracle as her son was born with only the tiniest part of a brain.
    Just minutes after giving birth in 2013, Emma, 24, was told by doctors that Aaron had a very rare health condition known as holoprosencephaly which they said left him 'incompatible with life'.
    Aaron was born with only a brain stem - which allows him to breathe and move - but does not have a full brain.

    But more than two years on, Aaron is not only alive but enjoys giggling and clapping his hands with his big brother, Jack, aged three.

    FUTURE SHUTS DOWN DATING RUMORS

    Despite the Future and Blac Chyna speculations, Future told Twitter that he is single and it should be believable because he “don’t f*ck wit no rumors”.
    So does that mean that Blac Chyna’s recent tattoo of the word future isn’t for the “Blow A Bag” rapper? Even though she made a video singing “Blow A Bag” and pointed out the fact that the ATL rapper said “Chyna gon’ f*ck me so crazy”. Hmm
    Well they’ve been spotted a few times in public together. Nothing romantic, just simply two people at the same place at the same time. So maybe it’s the fans who are making something out of nothing.
    Check out Future’s tweets below:

    SUGE KNIGHT PLEADS GUILTY IN ROBBERY CASE WITH KATT WILLIAMS

    suge


    Suge Knight has been plastered all over headlines for much of the year due to his hit-and-run antics on the set of the Straight Outta Compton movie, which left one man dead and another critically injured, but that’s not the only serious trouble the former Death Row head honcho has found himself in this year.
    A previous case, one in which he had been charged with robbery after he and comedian Katt Williams allegedly stole a photographer’s camera last year, was still ongoing, but its conclusion appears to be imminent. Knight, along with Williams, pleaded guilty to the robbery charges in court yesterday.
    Just days after being shot in Los Angeles last year, Knight allegedly stole photographer Leslie Reddon‘s camera following a physical struggle, which reportedly took place because Knight didn’t want Reddon taking pictures of his son. Knight’s attorney, Thomas Mesereau, defended his client’s actions, saying they were that of a protective father, but the judge would have none of it. In fact, Knight’s attempts to get a happy birthday message to his son by holding up a sign to courtroom cameras was frowned upon by Judge Ronald Coen, and Coen threatened to shackle Knight’s hands should he try it again.
    Knight remains behind bars on $10 million bail in his murder case regarding the Straight Outta Compton set hit-and-run.

    Most Controversial Rap Album Covers


    Twenty-five years ago today, Miami hip-hop group 2 Live Crew was arrested in Florida after a U.S. District Court Judge decided that their third album, As Nasty As They Wanna Be, was actually too nasty for the state of Florida. Despite having been on shelves since February 1989, ANAIWB became the first album to be declared legally obscene, a ruling that seems extraordinarily ridiculous in retrospect but was a landmark decision at the time. The album's cover, featuring four bikini-clad women standing over each of the group's four members,
