Amazon is working on  a secret project. They always do.

Bon Appetit..

You think the best burger in America came from, Shake Shack. Five Guys. But if you're from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, you'd say Al's Burger Shack. 

TripAdvisor announced its list of the Top 10 Burger Restaurants in the U.S. Coming in first was Al's, a tiny little burger joint in Chapel Hill, home of the University of North Carolina. Al Bowers opened the restaurant in 2013 - fittingly, on National Cheeseburger Day - and in 2017, added a second location across town. Both restaurants have the same simple but delicious menu: burgers, fries, hot dogs and drinks.

Insult...

Facebook deleted hundreds of offensive posts since a law banning online hate
speech came into force in Germany.

The social network received 1,704 complaints under the law, known in Germany as NetzDG, and removed 262 posts.

Complaints covered a range of alleged offenses, including insult, defamation, incitement to hatred and incitement to crime. Of the posts that were blocked, the largest number was for insult.

Falsely...

The federal investigation into a handful of former Biscayne Park police officers widened.

In addition to using excessive force when he struck a handcuffed suspect in the face.

Former Biscayne Park police chief Raimundo Atesiano, 52-year-old ,was indicted along with two other officers on a conspiracy charge of pinning four unsolved home burglaries on a 16-year-old in 2013.

The Time...

An Egyptian court said it would transfer the cases of some accused of security-related offences of killing 43 police officers and 800 civilians, to Egypt's top religious authority.

They are among more than 700 people accused of murder over a 2013 demonstration at Rabaa Adawiya square when Islamist president Mohamed Mursi was ousted.

Egyptian law requires any capital sentence to be referred to Grand Mufti,  which is not legally binding, but is rarely ignored by the courts.  

Sanctions...

Boeing stepped in to rescue the Ukrainian plane maker Antonov, known for producing the world's largest aircraft.

The firm had ceased production because of its heavy reliance on Russian imports, which had collapsed after Moscow's annexation of Crimea in 2014.

But, Boeing's parts, equipment and services unit, Aviall, is set to now provide the components and Antonov plans to build eight aircraft a year.

Sanctions we apply to other countries destroy their economy.  cruel way to punish the people of certain countries.

Super Bug...

New research from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, suggests that doctors may be overprescribing antibiotics, both in urgent care and retail clinic settings.

Dr. Katherine Fleming-Dutra and her research team showed that for respiratory or airway tract related illnesses, antibiotic medications were inappropriately prescribed in 45.7% of urgent care visits, 24.6% of emergency room visits, 17.0% of medical office visits and 14.4% of retail clinic visits. 

They fight what are often called “germs:” bacteria. But people can become infected with viruses, fungi, or parasites as well, and antibiotics don’t work against those. A superbug is a bacteria that has high levels of resistance to many different antibiotics.

One example: The CDC reports 246,000 cases of drug-resistant gonorrhea infections per year.
