The United Nations Security Council voted in favor of a new round of sanctions on North Korea over its nuclear program.  Sanctions have failed to deter Pyongyang so far, and the country has tested nuclear weapons and the missiles to carry them.  The new round targets North Korean exports, cutting off a third of that US$3 Billion which Pyongyang takes in annually.  US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley praised China, seen as North Korea's only friend in the world, for signing on to the sanctions:  "Today the Security Council has come together to put the North Korean dictator on notice," she said, "North Korea's irresponsible and careless acts have just proved to be costly for the regime."

Three US Marines are missing off the coast of Queensland after their MV-22 Osprey tilt rotor aircraft crashed into Shoalwater Bay near Rockhampton.  Rescuers pulled 23 crewmembers out of the water to safety.  The 3rd Marine Expeditionary Force based in Okinawa is in Australia for the "Talisman Sabre" joint military exercises.

A professor and a treasurer from two prestigious universities have handed themselves in to US authorities in the gruesome murder of a hairdresser.  42-year old microbiology professor Wyndham Lathem of Northwestern University near Chicago and 56-year old Andrew Warren of Britain's Oxford apparently fled to the San Francisco Bay Area after recording "confession" videos for friends and family, they turned themselves in at a Federal Court in Oakland.  Cops had been looking for them since 27 July when they discovered the hacked body of 26-year old Trenton Cornell-Duranleau in Lathem's blood-drenched Chicago apartment.

Venezuela's National Constituent Assembly (ANC) has suspended Attorney General Luisa Ortega Diaz until an investigation into "grave breaches of the law" is resolved.  Ortega is a former supporter of the late Hugo Chavez but vocal critic of democratically-elected President Nicolas Maduro and opposed the popular vote that created the assembly.  Venezuelan security forces were dispatched to make sure the prosecutor's office didn't turn into a focal point for conservative protesters, which the corporate media willingly misrepresented as "soldiers surrounding the office". 

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was sworn in for a second term after winning the popular vote back in May.  And he used his inauguration speech to warn US President Donald Trump he risks political suicide if he scraps the nuclear deal with Tehran.  The White House admits that Iran is complying with the deal, but still accuses Tehran of sponsoring terrorism and instability in the Mideast.  Rouhani accused the US of a "lack of commitment" to the deal and said it was an "unreliable partner".

Irish Taoiseach (PM) Leo Varadkar appeared at the Belfast Pride Parade, assuring revelers that it is "only a matter of time" before same-sex marriage is introduced in Northern Ireland.  Mr. Varadkar is the first openly gay leader of Ireland, where rapidly evolving views towards equality led to legalized gay marriage in 2015.  That progress goes for N.I. as well - police are marching in the parade in uniform for the very first time.

Speaking of gay icons, shirtless Vladimir Putin is back!
Man nipples and fish
Manhood
It was THAT big.  Not sure what, but it was big.
World leader nipples and big fish
Putin enjoyed some rugged, manly outdoor time catching some fish and getting some sun on a lake in Siberia with some other shirtless guy, as totally not-gay guys are prone to do.  Seriously, has the world seen so much of a leader's nipples since the time of the Caesars?  The Kremlin is burnishing Putin's totally macho credentials as he prepares for winning next year's presidential election because the competition has already been barred from running.  So, expect to see more of Putin being shirtless, or wrestling bears and tigers, or practicing Judo with some guy who knows enough to lose, and/or being tough on things.
You can't unsee this
Happy Sunday, Australia!!
