Long before the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown brought national attention to racial tensions in Ferguson , Missouri, zealous ticketing by a string of similar towns across the north side of St. Louis County had fed friction between the area’s largely white police departments and a growing black population. An analysis by NBC News indicates that in recent years, Ferguson and other nearby jurisdictions have issued citations for low-level traffic and other violations at a per capita rate as much as a dozen times higher than cities in other parts of suburban St. Louis. http://nbcnews.to/1mxSdlY http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

President Barack Obama's unpopular health care law is losing some of its political punch as vulnerable Democrats see it as less of an election-year minus and Republicans increasingly talk about fixing it instead of repealing. Two-term Arkansas Sen. Mark Pryor, who is locked in one of the most competitive races in the country, says in an ad this week that he voted for a law that prevents insurers from canceling policies if someone gets sick, as he did 18 years ago when he was diagnosed with cancer. That prohibition on terminating policies in this fashion is one of the more popular elements of the 4-year-old law that Pryor never mentions by its official name — the Affordable Care Act. The law, dubbed "Obamacare" by its critics, remains divisive. It has been vilified by Republicans as big government run amok and a relentless hit on a sputtering economy. House Republicans have voted some 50 times to repeal, change or scrap the law, and the GOP is betting Americans' oppos...

President Barack Obama could ask the U.S. Congress in coming weeks to approve new funds for airstrikes against Islamic State targets, following the militants' beheading of an American journalist and activities in Iraq. A Senate Democratic aide on Friday said the Obama administration could detail by early to mid-September the amount of additional money it wants for the military operations, although the aide did not estimate the size of the possible funding request. The request would come as some influential members of Congress call on Obama to step up U.S. http://yhoo.it/1BMEBxd http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

Lawyers for Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) are asking a judge to dismiss indictments and put proceedings in the case on hold over concerns about the jury selection process in federal court. In a 15-page motion filed late Friday, Tsarnaev's attorneys said their three-year review of procedures used to select both grand juries and trial juries in the District of Massachusetts turned up "substantial violations" of both the jury selection law and a constitutional requirement that juries represent a fair cross-section of the population. http://yhoo.it/1BMEDoM http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

Conditions calmed this week in Ferguson after nights of sometimes violent unrest stemming from the fatal shooting of a black 18-year-old by a white police officer. But a delicate and crucial question lingers: What happens if the grand jury now considering the case doesn't return a charge against the officer? The fear among some local residents and officials trying to maintain peace in Ferguson is that failure to charge the officer could stoke new anger among a community profoundly mistrustful of the legal system. http://apne.ws/1BMED8n http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

"Rep. Lee Terry (R-Neb.) says Congress can't afford a pay cut because its last salary increase occurred six years ago. Terry, considered one of the Republican Party’s most vulnerable incumbents this cycle, rebuffed his Democratic challenger state Sen. Brad Ashford on Monday. Ashford wants to cut lawmakers' salary by 10 percent and, if elected, would voluntarily return that amount until he gets the cut passed. "What he's not telling you is that Congress hasn't had a cost of living increase since 2008, when I led the charge for a freeze," Terry shot back, according to KMTV."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down. *Read more here from Igor Bobic / The Huffington Post: http://huff.to/1BMEAJy ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.

It was just after midnight on July 4 when at least two dozen U.S. Delta Force commandos arrived on heavily armed Black Hawk helicopters in Akrishi, a small town near the eastern Syrian city of Raqqa on the bank of the Euphrates River. Before they landed to search for American hostages including journalist James Foley, they destroyed a crucial target: anti-aircraft weapons at a jihadist base about 3 miles southeast of the city, a stronghold of Islamic State militants seeking to build a monolithic Islamic state. http://bit.ly/1mxS9mo http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

TEPCO starts test-treating groundwater Nuclear & Energy Aug. 20, 2014 - Updated 06:30 UTC-4 The operator of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant has begun a test on a new water management plan. It is removing radioactive materials in contaminated groundwater that would be released into the ocean if deemed safe. Tokyo Electric Power Company started the trial at the plant on Wednesday. Earlier, TEPCO pumped up about 500 tons of radioactive groundwater from drainage wells around the reactor buildings. In Wednesday's test, workers put about 290 tons of the water into the system to find how much it can reduce radioactive materials. So far, the results of the test have not been available. TEPCO says the treatment system will be able to reduce radioactive substances in the water to a range of one-thousandth to one-10 thousandth. Residents plan tour to Fukushima evacuation zone Nuclear & Energy Aug. 21, 2014 - Updated 13:17 UTC-4 A group of residents near Fukushima D...

Members of Colombia's military met face-to-face Friday with Marxist rebel leaders for the first time as talks aimed at ending a half-century war enter a decisive phase. Peace negotiations with the Revolutionary Armed Forces taking place in Cuba's capital the past two years still face a number of obstacles. Among those is widespread concern is that atrocities committed by the FARC will go unpunished, and Colombians are likely to be given the right to vote on any deal in a referendum. http://yhoo.it/XGoAJQ http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

The man who shot dead Beatles star John Lennon was denied parole for an eighth time after being deemed likely to violate the law again, prison authorities said Friday. Mark David Chapman was convicted in 1981 to between 20 years to life in prison for shooting Lennon five times on December 8, 1980. The New York State Board of Parole told Chapman it had "determined that if released at this time, there is a reasonable probability that you would not live and remain at liberty without again violating the law," according to a statement released by state prison authorities. http://yhoo.it/1pROYLd http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

Afghanistan has given a New York Times reporter 24 hours to leave the country, accusing him of not cooperating with an investigation into his reporting. Matthew Rosenberg was summoned for questioning on Tuesday after the newspaper ran a story about officials discussing plans to form an interim government and "seize power" if a deadlock over the presidential election failed to break soon. http://bit.ly/1vsCKZQ http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

The World Health Organization said on Friday, the scale of the world's worst Ebola outbreak has been concealed by families hiding infected loved ones in their homes and the existence of "shadow zones" that medics cannot enter. The U.N. agency issued a statement detailing why the outbreak in West Africa had been underestimated, following criticism that it had moved too slowly to contain the killer virus, now spreading out of control. Independent experts raised similar concerns a month ago that the contagion could be worse than reported because suspicious local inhabitants are chasing away health workers and shunning treatment. http://yhoo.it/1pRnW6B http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

The U.N. nuclear watchdog appears to have made only limited progress so far in getting Iran to answer questions about its suspected atomic bomb research, diplomatic sources said on Friday, three days before a deadline for cooperation. Under an accord reached by the U.N. agency and Iran in November in an attempt to revive the long-stalled investigation, Tehran agreed in May to carry out five specific steps by Aug. 25 to help allay international concerns. http://yhoo.it/1t0kVU1 http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

The Pentagon on Friday accused a Chinese fighter jet of conducting a "dangerous intercept" of a U.S. Navy aircraft off the coast of China in international airspace. John Kirby, said Washington protested to the Chinese military through diplomatic channels, calling the fighter pilot's actions "unsafe and unprofessional." Kirby said the Chinese jet made several close passes by the Navy P-8 Poseidon plane, coming within 30 feet of it at one point. Kirby said it happened about 135 miles east of China's Hainan Island. http://yhoo.it/1t0kSHJ http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

Officials said Tunisia and Egypt's Cairo airport canceled most flights to and from Libya on Thursday days after the Libyan government said unidentified war planes had attacked positions of armed groups in Tripoli. A spokesman for Tunisian Aviation Authority gave no explanation for the measures but Libyan news agency LANA and Egyptian officials said Cairo airport authorities had canceled flights for security reasons. Libyan renegade General Khalifa Haftar claimed Monday's attack in Tripoli on Islamist-leaning armed factions which have been trying to expel their rivals from the capital in the worst fighting since the ousting of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. http://bit.ly/1mt2EHy http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ

Hundreds of residents of a Liberian slum lined up to receive rice and water from government officials Thursday in their neighborhood which was sealed off from the rest of the capital in an attempt to halt the spread of Ebola. Security forces erected barbed-wire wrapped barricades on Wednesday to cut off West Point. The current outbreak in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea and Nigeria is the largest ever, and officials have said that treatment centers are filling up faster than new ones can be opened or expanded. This leaves the sick packing hallways, potentially infecting more people. http://apne.ws/1mt2CiN http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
