Good Morning Australia!! - The International Olympic Committee wimps out - Do not tempt the hungry Tigers, just don't - Hillary gets a boost from someone that could convince US voters dismayed by the fascistic tone of Trump's campaign, while the Democratic Party gets a change in management - And more in your  CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

Starting with the scary video people will be talking about around the water cooler:  This is why you don't get out of the car in a wildlife park.  A tiger dragged off, mauled, and killed a woman at Beijing's Badaling Wildlife World, one of those places you drive through to get a close up view of animals who want to eat you.  She disregarded warnings not to get out of the car; a second woman who got out to try and save the first was attacked by yet another tiger and critically injured.  Park rangers were on the scene within seconds, but tigers are big giant 500 pound beasts made out of muscles, teeth, and claws.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has passed the buck, and refused to rule on whether Russia should be banned from the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro next month, and instead says that individual federations the govern each of the sports should make the decision based on each individual athlete's personal history.  The world track and field body has already banned the Russian team because of a wide-spread, state-sponsored doping scandal. 

The World Anti-Doping Agency, which had called for a collective ban on Russia, is condemning the IOC's wimpy buck-passing.  And the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) chief Travis Tygart says the decision is "incomprehensible" and will "undoubtedly deter whistle-blowers in the future from coming forward".  And what of Yulia Stepanova, the Russian pole vaulter who blew the whistle on her country's state-run doping scam?  The IOC says she's banned because she tested positive in an earlier blood sample. 

Meanwhile, the Olympic housing facilities in Rio are a leaky, stinky mess.  Australia will not move its athletes into the village because of "blocked toilets, leaking pipes, and exposed wiring," said Australian Olympic team Chef de Mission Kitty Chiller.  She also cites bad lighting in many stairwells and "dirty floors in need of a massive clean".  Ms. Chiller told Fairfax Media, "Water came down walls, there was a strong smell of gas in some apartments and there was "shorting" in the electrical wiring."  

In US politics, the Democratic Party National Convention gets underway later today with a new leader and convention chair:  Top Dem Debbie Wasserman Schultz (DWS) is out after an email leak that confirmed a bias against Sen. Bernie Sanders' campaign.  In one email out of the 20,000 stolen by Russian hackers and leaked via Wikileaks, one party figure appears to question Sen. Sanders' Jewish faith - something that ultimately did not happen during the campaign.  Still, it's a very bad look for DWS and Sanders demanded her resignation as party chief.  Ohio Rep. Marcia Fudge takes over running the convention, pundit Donna Brazile is the interim party leader.  Both are African American women, which draws more contrast with the Republican Party's now-overt racism and bigotry.

On a brighter note for the Democrats, Hillary Clinton will get the endorsement of former New York City Mayor and publishing magnate Michael Bloomberg.  The popular billionaire (let's face it, America worships wealth) and political centrist who most believe could have mounted a successful independent challenge to both the Democrats and Republicans is increasingly dismayed over the hate-filled, nihilist, and xenophobic campaign of fascist demagogue Donald Trump.  He'll speak at the convention as an independent and business leader about maturity and sanity, and the policies he shares with Hillary Clinton and running mate Tim Kaine.

Meanwhile, Trump is making fools out of the handlers who were supposed to keep him out of trouble again by suggesting that he'd expand his idea of banning Muslim immigration.  On NBC's Sunday morning news-interview show "Meet The Press", the orange clown said he'd limit entry to the US to people from countries he deemed "compromised" by Islam - a clear reference to France and Germany, two important US allies that Trump would stab in the back. 

Another troubling incident in Germany involving an asylum seeker:  A Syrian man got into an argument with a woman at a kebab shop near Stuttgart, pulled a machete, and killed her, injuring two people.  The man had previous police contact over violent incidents, and police don't believe it's linked to terrorism - but it is the second time an asylum seeker has used a blade weapon to kill in recent weeks.

The German teen David Sonboly who shot and killed eight people at a McDonald's near a mall in Munich before killing himself last week was a bullied loner who apparently planned the attack for more than a year.  Police say he purchased his Glock handgun off of the so-called "dark web", a part of the Internet accessible only with special browsers, where the usual search engines fear to tread.  Prosecutors say the seven teenagers among the victims were not involved in past bullying incidents against Sonboly when he was in school.  Sonboly had been under psychiatric care prior to the carnage.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing that killed 20 in a Shiite area of Baghdad; a day earlier, an IS bomber killed more than 80 in a political demonstration in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Syrian opposition activists say government air raids struck at least five medical facilities, killing an undetermined number of people.  Various rebel factions, the government, and even errant US and Russian bombs have targeted hospitals throughout the five-year Syrian Civil war; the humanitarian and political fallout of this disaster has spilled over the entire Middle East, Europe, and threatens to taint the US political process.
