A massive photo of U.S. President Donald Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was placed on the lawn outside Windsor Castle, where Trump is scheduled to stay Tuesday night as part of a state visit to the U.K.
The British activist group Everyone Hates Elon claimed responsibility for the stunt in a post on Instagram.
“Trump is coming to the UK to AVOID the EPSTEIN story,” the group posted alongside footage of the 400-square-metre banner being unveiled on Monday.
“Unfortunately the British public just crowdfunded the WORLD’S BIGGEST PHOTO of Donald with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.” | |

Fourteen staff members at a US animal shelter have been taken to hospital after the FBI used an incinerator at the facility to burn two pounds of seized methamphetamine.
Staff and some 75 cats and dogs were evacuated from the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter in Billings, Montana, when the building filled with smoke on Wednesday.
The incinerator is usually used by animal control officers to dispose of euthanised animals, but local authorities said it can also be used by law enforcement to burn seized narcotics. | |

A plan to salvage the cargo ship Thamesborg is underway after the Canadian Coast Guard completed aerial and remote-operated vehicle surveys of the vessel, which sits grounded in the Franklin Strait.
The 172-metre Dutch cargo ship, owned by Royal Wagenborg, ran aground Saturday while transiting the Northwest Passage on its way to Baie Comeau, Que., from Asia. It was carrying carbon blocks for industrial use.
“Our full attention is still on the ongoing situation of Thamesborg and the preparations for a safe refloating operation,” said Guus van der Linde, manager of corporate communications for Royal Wagenborg.
An update issued by the company late Thursday said the ship remains stable and there is a plan for a salvage master and naval architect to join Thamesborg by the end of the week.
Salvage equipment and additional staff have been mobilized, the update said.
Some of the vessel’s ballast tanks sustained damage in the incident, but the fuel tanks and cargo holds are intact, the company said. | |

Engineers prove their technique is effective even with the lowest-cost WiFi devices
The Pulse-Fi system is highly accurate, achieving clinical-level heart rate monitoring with ultra low-cost WiFi devices, making it useful for low resource settings.
The system works with the person in a variety of different positions and from up to 10 feet away.

“The personal is the political” was a reality for me long before it became the mantra of Second Wave feminism in the United States. In 1951, when I was ten years old, my father, Samuel Wallach, a New York City high school teacher, was suspended from his job for refusing to cooperate with an investigation into communism in the public schools. He was fired for insubordination two years later—one of some 350 teachers who were fired or resigned in those years.
The history of my family was deeply affected by that event. I learned early about the intrusive operations of state power in the daily routines of domestic life: there were unexpected visits from the FBI, subpoenas served, telephones tapped, subversive books wrapped in brown paper and stuffed in the back of closets, hushed conversations (in Yiddish, the household language of secrecy) between my parents. On the day of my father’s firing, when he called to report the news, I overheard my mother “congratulate” him in an ironic tone, her voice catching, tears in her eyes. I understood, in the way children do, the complexity of her response, without fully grasping the details. For years, we all breathed a general air of anxiety. | |
