IHOP Is Giving Away Free Pancakes For Charity on Tuesday

IHOP Is Giving Away Free Pancakes For Charity on Tuesday The International House of Pancakes is giving customers a chance to put their money where their mouth is. On Tuesday, IHOP celebrates its annual National Pancake Day with a free short stack for customers from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Some locations will offer the deal until 10 p.m. Rather than paying the typical $4.79 for a short stack, IHOP is asking customers to donate to one of its partnered charities instead. The breakfast chain is seeking to raise at least $3.5 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, Shriners Hospitals for Children, and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The proceeds will help children battle critical illnesses, the company said.

CIA could listen through cellphones, smart TVs, WikiLeaks claims

CIA could listen through cellphones, smart TVs, WikiLeaks claims WikiLeaks on Tuesday  published thousands of documents  purportedly taken from the Central Intelligence Agency's Center for Cyber Intelligence, a dramatic release that appears to provide an eye-opening look at the intimate details of America's cyberespionage toolkit. The dump of more than 8,000 documents could not immediately be authenticated by The Associated Press and the CIA declined comment, but WikiLeaks has a long track record of releasing top secret government documents. Experts who've started to sift through the material said it appeared legitimate — and that the release was almost certain to shake the CIA. "There's no question that there's a fire drill going on right now," said Jake Williams, a security expert with Augusta, Ga.-based Rendition Infosec. "It wouldn't surprise me that there are people changing careers — and ending careers — as we speak.&qu

CIA has 'lost control' of hacking and spying tools: WikiLeaks

CIA has 'lost control' of hacking and spying tools: WikiLeaks WASHINGTON — WikiLeaks on Tuesday published thousands of documents purportedly taken from the Central Intelligence Agency's Center for Cyber Intelligence, a dramatic release that appears to expose intimate details of America's cyberespionage toolkit. It was not immediately clear how WikiLeaks obtained the information, which included more than 8,700 documents and files. The CIA tools, if authentic, could undermine the confidence that consumers have in the safety and security of their computers, mobile devices and even smart TVs. WikiLeaks said the material came from "an isolated, high-security network situated inside the CIA's Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virginia." It didn't say how the files were removed, such as possibly by a rogue employee, by hacking a federal contractor working for the CIA or breaking into a staging server where such hacking tools might be t

Vegard Forren forlot Rosenborgs treningsleir

Vegard Forren forlot Rosenborgs treningsleir Blir ikke Rosenborg-spiller, opplyser klubben. Vegard Forren er klubbløs foran sesongen, etter å ha forlatt Molde etter forrige sesong. Den siste tiden har planen vært at han skulle trene Rosenborg, og å delta på deres treningsleir i Spania. Men da Rosenborg landet i Spania mandag, fikk trener Kåre Ingebrigtsen beskjed om at Forren hadde forlatt hotellet, melder Rosenborg: «Det betyr at 29-åringen nok ikke blir å finne i den hvite og svarte drakta på Lerkendal i år.» Romsdals Budstikke meldte søndag at Forren var på vei til Marbella for å ta del i Rosenborgs treningsleir. Da var han positiv: – Jeg tenker på Rosenborg som et godt sportslig tilbud som jeg ser på som veldig spennende. Jeg tror dette kan være perfekt for meg nå, sier Forren til Rbnett.

Regjeringen flytter norsk styrke til Vest-Irak

Regjeringen flytter norsk styrke til Vest-Irak De rundt 60 norske soldatene som trener irakiske sikkerhetsstyrker i kampen mot IS, skal flyttes fra Arbil i Nord-Irak til Anbar-provinsen i Vest-Irak. Av Mats Rønning Stortingets utvidede utenriks- og forsvarskomité ble mandag ettermiddag orientert om at mandatet for det norske bidraget i krigen mot IS forlenges med tolv måneder fra og med 10. mars 2017. Styrken er i dag i det kurdiskkontrollerte Arbil-området i Nord-Irak, der Norge også har bidratt med et kirurgisk team til det militære sykehuset. Bidragets størrelse på rundt 60 personer videreføres når styrken nå flyttes til Anbar. – Norske styrker i Irak skal fortsatt ikke delta direkte i kamphandlinger, sier forsvarsminister Ine Eriksen Søreide (H). Forsvarsministeren sier oppdraget går ut på å trene og rådgi irakiske sikkerhetsstyrker på brigade- og divisjonsnivå samt politi og grensevakt. – Dette inkluderer rådgivning i forbindelse med planlegging og gjennomfør

Greg Rutherford's ex manager jailed after conning long jumper out of £48,000 to fund gambling addiction

Greg Rutherford's ex manager jailed after conning long jumper out of £48,000 to fund gambling addiction Olympic gold medallist Greg Rutherford's former manager has been jailed for 18 months after he fleeced the long jumper out of more than £48,000 to feed his gambling habit. The Olympian said he was left "feeling sick" after trusting Gaby Stone, 34, but falling victim to his dishonesty. Stone, of Edgware Road, Marylebone, was today Monday sentenced for 18 months at Blackfriars Crown   Court   after admitting fraud by abuse of position. He pocketed sponsorship and appearance fees from the London 2012 hero and former Strictly Come Dancing star to feed his habit between 2014 and 2015. Stone was the sole director and company secretary of GSE Management and looked after Mr Rutherford's commercial opportunities. But he blew tens of thousands of the Olympian's earnings from live appearances and endorsements on his crippling gambling addiction.

Harry Kane hoping for helping hand from Hammers against Chelsea

Tottenham striker Harry Kane admits he will be a West Ham fan for one day only as the Hammers look to upset Chelsea on Monday night. Spurs cut the gap behind Antonio Conte’s league leaders to seven points on Sunday by beating Everton 3-2 as Kane scored twice before Dele Alli added a third late on. Chelsea can restore their advantage to 10 points with a win at the London Stadium, but Kane is hoping Slaven Bilic’s men can do Tottenham a favour. Kane said: “I am supporting West Ham, we don’t normally say that here. Of course we want West Ham to win because we want to catch Chelsea and we want them to drop points. “But we’ve got to concentrate on ourselves, build a gap on the teams around us and if Chelsea drop points then great and if they don’t then we’ll be second or third.” Tottenham were Leicester’s closest rivals in the title race last season but crumbled when the pressure mounted during the run-in. A kind run of fixtures could see Mauricio Pochettino’s c

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic reveals what sets Chelsea apart from Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic believes  Chelsea  are top of the Premier League because they have proved far more ‘solid’ than their title rivals. Under Antonio Conte, the Blues have moved seven points clear of their nearest challengers – that figure could reach double figures again if Chelsea beat West Ham on Monday. Bilic has been impressed by Chelsea’s ability to win games while not being at their best – and the Hammers boss believes this is down to the formation Conte has implemented at Stamford Bridge. ‘The main thing you notice about Chelsea this season is that they are very fit, they work hard, they are very solid and on top of that, they have that quality up front which is basically making the difference in every game,’ Bilic wrote in his column for the  Evening Standard . ‘If you compare them with the other title contenders, Chelsea are more solid than Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool. ‘Most of the games, they are winning not totally the Italian way and
