FBI fugitive found in tiny Welsh village: Could Quiet ‘Danny’ really be a wanted eco-terrorist?
Daniel Andreas San Diego, a fugitive wanted by the FBI for his involvement in two 2003 San Francisco bombings in which no one was injured, was arrested in a remote Welsh village more than 20 years after going on the run.
Neighbors had no idea that the quiet vegetarian was on the FBI's most wanted terrorist list for his alleged involvement in bombings targeting biotech and nutrition companies in California.
Known to locals as “Danny,” he lived in a £425,000 bungalow in Maenana, a quiet area in the Conwy Valley, and led a Unabomber-like low-profile lifestyle, proving once again that eco-terrorists are best found in quiet rural areas.

From ‘Bad Boy’ to Bad News: Diddy denied $50M bond over public safety fears
A Manhattan federal court denied Sean Combs' request to be released on a $50 million bond, citing concerns about the risk of witness tampering and even public safety, or perhaps hinting that his "Can't Stop, Won't Stop" attitude is definitely in need of a major reboot.
The man behind “Bad Boy Records,” who has been in custody since his September arrest, faces racketeering and sex trafficking charges for coercing people into "Freak Off" performances to fulfill his sick "sexual desires" and using filmed footage as leverage, according to the indictment.
Diddy's first album, “No Way Out,” turned out to be quite prophetic.

US downplays nuclear risk amid Ukraine’s strikes on Russian territory
Washington believes that Moscow is unlikely to respond with nukes to Ukraine’s recent strikes deep into its territory using Western-supplied missiles, Reuters reports.
Despite months of internal debate over whether Biden should approve the use of ATACMS missiles, officials in the US government ultimately concluded that fears of nuclear escalation were exaggerated.
While early concerns centered around potential retaliation against US or allied military bases, the threat of a nuclear response is now seen as minimal.
