What began in 2016 as a novel summer attraction has grown into a seasonal tradition and is drawing visitors from across the US. This year’s festival features more than a thousand handcrafted lanterns, from glowing underwater worlds to the festival’s signature 200-foot dragon. Artisans spend a month building each silk-wrapped, hand-painted creation before the park opens to the public. Visitors wander among the displays, watch nightly performances and fountain shows, and sample food from local vendors. The Philadelphia Chinese Lantern Festival runs until August 31st.
By AP with Eleanor Butler Published on 08/08/2025 – 9:20 GMT+2 Intel shares slumped on Thursday after President Donald Trump said in a social media post that the chipmaker’s CEO needed to resign. “The CEO of Intel is highly conflicted and must resign, immediately,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “There is no other solution to this problem. Thank you for your attention to this problem!” Trump made the post after Senator Tom Cotton sent a letter to Intel Chairman Frank Yeary, expressing concern over CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s investments and ties to semiconductor firms that are reportedly linked to the Chinese Communist…
By Euronews with AP Published on 08/08/2025 – 9:37 GMT+2 The Hubble Space Telescope has captured the best picture yet of a high-speed comet visiting our solar system from another star. NASA and the European Space Agency released the latest photos Thursday. Discovered last month by a telescope in Chile, the comet known as 3I-Atlas is only the third known interstellar object to pass our way. It poses no threat to Earth. Astronomers originally estimated the size of its icy core at tens of kilometres across, but Hubble’s observations have narrowed it down to no more than 5.6 kilometres. It could even be…
President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he would nominate a top economic adviser to the Federal Reserve’s board of governors for four months, temporarily filling a vacancy while continuing his search for a longer-term appointment. Trump said he had named Stephen Miran, the chair of the White House’s Council of Economic Advisers, to fill a seat vacated by governor Adriana Kugler, a Biden appointee who is stepping down on Friday. Miran, if approved by the Senate, will serve until 31 January 2026. The appointment is Trump’s first opportunity to exert more control over the Fed, one of the few…
First there’s ICE Man, played by an actual superhero, Dean Cain (who portrayed Superman in “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” in the 1990s). Cain revealed that he has joined US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (better known as ICE) to support Donald Trump’s anti-immigration agenda. Cain recently made headlines for calling the latest Superman film “woke,” after its director described the character as an immigrant. Superman was of course born on the planet Krypton and his birth name was Kal-El, so he’d be exactly the sort of person ICE would be looking to deport. Next to join the group is poor…
Since 2012, ordinary citizens have enjoyed the democratic right to call for new EU law to be created on specific issues through the European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI). Since then, 121 proposals have been submitted, some of them truly original. The ECI allows any group of citizens to pitch the European Commission legislative proposals on issues where the EU has authority. While most proposals focus on serious policy concerns such as health, animal welfare, or consumer rights, a handful buck the trend and are pretty strange. Thus ECIs have ranged from requests for a complete ban on animal farming through a…
In fairness, the U.K. government did demand Apple grant it a backdoor to access user data, teeing up an almighty fight with the U.S. And its online safety laws have tried to rein in tech giants with new rules forcing them to police “harmful” content – much to the annoyance of some U.S. lawmakers. Still, Starmer managed to hold his own in the face of the impromptu attack. “We’ve had free speech for a very, very long time in the United Kingdom and it will last for a very, very long time,” the PM shot back as Trump looked on.…
Published on 08/08/2025 – 6:34 GMT+2 A federal judge in Maryland ruled that US President Donald Trump cannot withhold citizenship from people born to people in the United States illegally or temporarily, issuing the fourth court decision blocking Trump’s birthright citizenship order since a key Supreme Court ruling in June. US District Judge Deborah Boardman’s preliminary injunction was expected after she said last month that she would issue such an order if an appeals court returned the case to her. The 4th US Circuit Court of Appeals sent the case back to her late in July. Since June, two other…
