Read previewRussian President Vladimir Putin told Russian state TV presenter Pavel Zarubin that he expected tougher questions from Tucker Carlson, seemingly trolling the former Fox News host. Putin, for his part, "didn't get complete satisfaction" from the interview, according to Politico EU's translation. Putin's chief complaint was that he expected more "sharp" questions from Carlson, a commentator who at Fox News previously defended Russia. Carlson was the first Western journalist to interview Putin since the invasion of Ukraine two years ago. An attorney for Carlson did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.

Tucker Carlson is facing backlash for stating that Western media hasn't tried to interview Putin. AdvertisementIt seems even the Kremlin thinks Tucker Carlson has gone too far in his criticism of Western media. The BBC noted that Carlson later changed his tone as the war progressed, saying: "Vladimir Putin started this war... However, Carlson has called Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a "dictator" who "is friends with everyone in Washington". In response to allegations that he is a pawn of Putin , Carlson told Axios in 2022: "I could care less."

Strange ‘earthquake lights’ explained
  + stars: | 2023-09-16 | by ( Katie Hunt | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
CNN —I once felt the immense force unleashed by an earthquake in 1999 when I was living in Taipei, Taiwan. It was a feeling I was reminded of again this week when writing about a mysterious seismic phenomenon witnessed during Morocco’s recent devastating earthquake. Force of natureReports of multicolor “earthquake lights,” such as the ones seen in videos captured before Morocco’s 6.8 magnitude quake on September 8, go back centuries to ancient Greece. Researchers are beginning to understand the different forms the lights take and where they might appear. One 2014 study found the mystery lights could result from certain rocks when put under stress, but there is still no consensus on exactly what causes these outbursts.

But the journalist started wondering about the other women who had trained alongside Ride in NASA’s first coed astronaut class. More than 1,500 women applied to become astronauts between 1976 and 1977, Grush writes. "The Six: The Untold Story of America's First Women Astronauts" by Loren Grush is out September 12. NASAWhy these astronauts’ experiences resonate todayWhile Ride was first, ultimately every member of The Six flew on a space shuttle. In her book, Grush chronicles their journeys, including the 1986 Challenger disaster that killed Resnik on her second space shuttle flight.

The Kremlin's top brass are trying to pass the buck over the ruble's collapse. Russia's central bank governor, Elvira Nabiullina, said the weak ruble is due to changing trade flows. "A weak ruble complicates the economy's structural transformation and negatively influences real household earnings. "Blaming the central bank is like a drunkard's search — looking for the guilty where the light is," she said, the Financial Times reported earlier this week. The Kremlin, Russia's central bank, and Capital Economics did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider.

A news ticker was hacked in Siberia to insult Vladimir Putin, reports said. Putin is a "thief', said the hijacked news ticker in Siberian oil town Surgut. It came after the value of the ruble plunged against the dollar. 100 rubles to the dollar – you've lost your fucking mind," read the news ticker in Surgut, an oil town in Siberia, reported Max Seddon, the Financial Times' Moscow bureau chief. According to Russian independent outlet The Insider, the news ticker was run by the Russian news agency SIA-Press.

The outlandish claim comes amid health concerns after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam in Ukraine. The bizarre claim comes after the destruction of a major dam near Kherson caused flooding along the Dnieper River in southern Ukraine earlier this month. "When bitten, mosquitoes can infect military personnel with a dangerous infection, such as malaria," he said. Alex Babenko/Getty ImagesWhile the bizarre claim appears to have little basis, the dam's destruction has caused fears over subsequent disease and health concerns. A military partisan movement said the Russian army has recently suffered a cholera outbreak after the destruction of the dam, Newsweek reported.

A Russian ultranationalist party has made an AI chatbot of deceased leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky. The chatbot answers questions about the Ukraine war. According to The Moscow Times, people can ask the chatbot questions, and it makes "predictions" about key world events. At Thursday's event, the outlet said, the chatbot predicted that the war in Ukraine would continue until "peace and the Russian people's safety are fully restored." Putin paid tribute to Zhirinovsky after his death, and made a rare public appearance to attend his funeral last April.

Over the past two years, scores of rioters with military experience have been arrested in connection with the Capitol attack. Wise is the rare former federal agent to have been charged. Thomas E. Caldwell, a member of the Oath Keepers who was convicted in November of felony charges stemming from the Jan. 6 riot, had once worked with the F.B.I. And Mark S. Ibrahim, an active-duty agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration, was charged in July 2021 in connection with the riot. Wise worked on counterterrorism matters at the F.B.I.
While New Zealand have not lost a test series at home to England since 2008, Stokes's men have little respect for the record books. If New Zealand have a sliver of hope it may lie in England's trouble with day-night tests. England have lost their last five under the lights and neither James Anderson nor Ollie Robinson have much love for the pink Kookaburra ball. England have not looked back since McCullum and Stokes took charge but the series will be a reminder of where it all began for the Anderson-Stuart Broad pace axis. They kept their spots for the third and final clash in Napier, which England won to seal the series 2-1.
