Earthquake Strikes Japan The Day President Trump Arrives
An earthquake shook nearby Tokyo, Japan on Saturday, just hours before the US President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump arrived. In fact, the earthquake epicenter was just 6 miles to the south of where President Trump and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe planned to play golf. The epicenter of the earthquake was located about 7 miles northwest of Ohara, Japan and just 40 miles from Tokyo. The visit by President Trump and first lady Melania Trump is largely ceremonial to recognize Japan's new emperor Naruhito. The highest magnitude earthquake to strike Japan so far this year was a magnitude 6.1 on May 9, 2019, near Miyazaki-shi, Japan.

Tesla On Autopilot Slams Into Stalled Car On Highway, Expect More Of This
Because the other car had somewhat momentarily blocked your view, you had not been able to see that this stalled car was a menace-in-waiting to you and your car. Diagnosing What Happens In Stalled Car CrashesLet’s take out our Sherlock Holmes magnifying glass and try to ferret out salient characteristics of these kinds of automobile-based death-defying (though sometimes death resulting) incidents. As I earlier suggested, sometimes you can maneuver out of the situation, while other times there is not any viable recourse and you get pinned into ramming into the stalled car. Would a LIDAR device have potentially aided in detecting the stalled car? On another notable facet of the incident, the human driver says that there was insufficient time for him to react.

Disney's 'Aladdin' Tops Box Office With Huge $207 Million Worldwide Debut
Mena Massoud and Marwan Kenzari in 'Aladdin' Walt DIsneyAladdin earned an estimated $86 million over the Fri-Sun portion of its projected $105 million debut weekend. That Han Solo prequel earned $84 million Fri-Sun and $103 million over its Fri-Mon debut weekend. For reference, the outliers in both directions are X-Men: The Last Stand ($234 million from a $122 million Fri-Mon debut in 2006) and Men In Black 3 ($179 million from a $69 million debut in 2012). With a $121 million overseas debut, that gives the flick a $207 million global opening, not yet counting whatever it will earn in North America and overseas on Monday. That's a 41/59 domestic/overseas split, and that's with a "meh" $18.7 million debut weekend in China.

Cable news networks gain influence despite limited audiences
(Jessica Hill/AP)Media columnistWith their limited, aging viewership, you might think cable TV news would be a political afterthought and a business washout. And the cable networks, undeniably, develop the kind of engagement that marketers call “mindshare” — especially in the political realm. “Cable TV news has an influence today that is outsized to the literal audience that is watching it,” said Tom Rosenstiel, executive director of the American Press Institute. His vastly younger audience, he told me, has little awareness of cable TV news shows and personalities. The most recent example: whether to climb aboard those Fox town halls, given the network’s reputation for trafficking in conspiracy theories and serving as a propaganda outlet for Trump.
