But how old is Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s nephew turning? How does he celebrate his royal birthday and what gifts is he given?
How old is Prince George turning?
Prince George will turn five years old on July 22.
George is just under two years older than Princess Charlotte, who was born in 2015.
How do the royals celebrate Prince George’s birthday?
While one of the most famous families in the world, the royals usually keep their children's birthday special by celebrating privately.
However, Kate and Wills do have a tradition of sharing a portrait of their children on their birthdays to thank the public for birthday wishes.
It’s expected Kate will take the picture of Prince George this year, as she has done in the past for all her children.
George may be a Prince, but he’s also just a normal five year old, and so it’s expected the little boy is all about toys.
However, this year the little boy has been gifted a very special present.
The Royal Mint have unveiled a special five pound coin in honour of the tot’s birthday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin will discuss Syrian issues with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Russia's Sochi on Monday, the Kremlin said on Sunday.
The meeting will take place at a time when the Syrian government forces backed by Russia and Iran are preparing an offensive against the rebels' last major stronghold in Idlib province, although Turkey and the US have repeatedly warned against any operation, Xinhua reported.
Erdogan's call for a ceasefire in Idlib, which borders Turkey, was accepted neither by Russia nor Iran at the tripartite summit in Tehran on September 7.
Last week, four Russian warplanes stationed in Syria's Hmeymim airbase attacked militants in Idlib and the Russian Foreign Ministry said it was important and urgent to eradicate terrorism in Idlib. Russian strategic bombers have simulated striking targets in Syria.
Turkey and the US are opposed to the possible offensive in Idlib, citing that it could cause great civilian casualties and even a humanitarian disaster.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are expected to negotiate over Idlib on the sidelines of the 73rd session of the UN General Assembly that will open on Tuesday.
The Library of Congress today will formally take possession of the Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation, a $150 million gift from the Packard Humanities Institute that includes state-of-the-art facilities for storage and restoration of library collections.
The 415,000-square-foot Packard Campus in Culpeper, Va., which will consolidate audiovisual collections from across four states and the District of Columbia, is the largest-ever private gift to the legislative branch. It will be signed over by PHI President David Woodley Packard at a 6:30 p.m. ceremony in the library's Thomas Jefferson Building on Capitol Hill.
Since the 1990s, just about every division of the Library of Congress has been running out of space. Some 6 million items in the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division collection were stored in seven locations in four states and the nation's capital. Movies had to be brought from as far away as Dayton, Ohio, if someone requested them at the division's reading room in Washington.
The Packard Humanities Institute found a decommissioned facility of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond near Culpeper that fit the division's needs for storage and new preservation technology. It originally consisted of a three-story building with vaults to hold stores of cash that could be used to restart the economy east of the Mississippi River in case of an attack on the country, as well as a records center and a secure retreat for the bank.
Congress approved acquisition of the 45-acre property through a PHI grant in 1997. The institute provided $155 million for design and construction of a new facility, and $80 million start-up operational funding. Remodeling of the original bunker and vault building and construction of a new physical plant and state-of-the-art conservation building began in 2003. The library's Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound division has been moving in little by little during the past year.
The facility has been supported since 2001 by $82.1 million in federal funds for operations, maintenance, equipment and related costs. The state-of-the-art facility comprises three main areas: a collections building where some 5.7 million items (1.2 million moving images, nearly 3 million sound recordings and 1.5 million related items such as manuscripts, posters and screenplays) will be housed under ideal conditions; a conservation building where the collections will be acquired, managed and preserved; and a separate facility with 124 vaults where nitrate films can be stored safely.
The General Services Administration has restarted work on a contested contract that aims to help agencies begin issuing Personal Identity Verification cards under Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12.
An agency spokesman officially confirmed that GSA had stopped working on the five-year, $104 million contract with BearingPoint Inc. of McLean, Va., immediately after Lockheed Martin Corp. protested the Aug. 18 award.
But after GSA officials began reviewing Lockheed's complaint, the agency restarted work on the BearingPoint deal Sept. 7, the spokesman said.
'We are looking at the merits of the case,' the spokesman said.
Still, the contract remains under investigation and GSA has until the end of the month to conclude its probe, the spokesman said. 'Our full intent is to [conclude the investigation] sooner' than that, he said.
GSA's investigation will not impact a separate analysis of the award by the Government Accountability Office, which received protests of the award from Xtec Inc. of Miami and EDS Corp. GAO is scheduled to complete its investigations in mid-December.
The Minnesota Court of Appeals has reversed the conviction of a St. Paul man found guilty in 2012 for having cybersex with a 15-year-old boy, ruling that it was possible the man thought the boy old enough to legally exchange sexual pictures and messages.
Thomas LaBlanc, 67, was prosecuted in Ramsey County District Court under a state law that makes it a felony to communicate sexually explicit materials via the Internet to children 15 and younger.
When a district judge found LaBlanc guilty and gave him a one-year stayed sentence, his attorney appealed on grounds that the evidence wasn’t sufficient to convict and that the law was unconstitutional.
On Monday, that appeal succeeded. While the appellate court didn’t rule on the constitutional question, it held that prosecutors hadn’t proven beyond a reasonable doubt that LaBlanc knew the boy was underage.
LaBlanc, a Native American dancer, met the boy when performing at his Missouri school in 2007. Prosecutors said they engaged in cybersex for months on the Myspace social media website. St. Paul police were told about the case in 2009.
Attorney Jeff Dean said Monday that LaBlanc had communicated with someone who “misrepresented his age and who appeared to be over 20 years old.” LaBlanc and his family, Dean said, were “very happy” about the reversal.
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- More than 1,100 students and teachers took part in interactive workshops introducing them to the growing and complex field of cybersecurity, through programs conducted this past year by the University at Buffalo School of Management.
The School of Management’s Western New York Cybersecurity Workshop Outreach program, funded through a partnership with Time Warner Cable, is led by David Murray, associate professor of management science and systems.
Murray conducted 47 workshop sessions at 12 different middle and high schools throughout Western New York during the 2010-11 school year, featuring live demonstrations of cybersecurity equipment, hand-on activities and basic lessons on a range of topics, including data encryption, wireless security, digital forensics, firewalls, steganography and strong passwords.
Cyber threats are on the rise, creating an urgent need for professionals with the technical and managerial skills to protect national and business interests, according to Murray. One way Murray hopes to help meet this escalating demand is by introducing bright young students, including girls and minorities, to the subject of information assurance through the workshops, and encouraging them to pursue career opportunities in the burgeoning field.
The workshops draw upon the expertise in the School of Management’s MBA option in information assurance, its Sleiman Information Assurance Laboratory and the UB Center of Excellence in Information Systems Assurance Research and Education, which is recognized as a national center of excellence by the National Security Agency.
The Cybersecurity Workshop Outreach program was piloted with a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded to H.R. Rao, professor of management science and systems, as well as two other UB professors, Sharmistha Bagchi-Sen, professor of geography, and Shambhu Upadhyaya, professor of computer science and engineering.
The partnership with Time Warner Cable will run through 2012 and has helped expand the program throughout local, city and suburban schools. Workshops may be conducted at participating schools or through student field trips to the University at Buffalo. For more information, contact David Murray at djmurray@buffalo.edu.
USA TAKES ON BERNIE AND P.R.
MIAMI – Bernie Williams may have a hard time remembering to root against Derek Jeter tonight, but otherwise views Team USA as just another hurdle for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic. It’s a high hurdle.
It hasn’t been Williams’ best week. His role has been limited for Team Puerto Rico, and he now faces an accusation that he assaulted a woman in a San Juan nightclub who attempted to take his picture.
Williams cited legal concerns yesterday in not directly addressing the complaint filed against him. He is keeping his mind on baseball, hopeful for an opportunity to contribute.
“Hopefully I’ll get some at-bats,” Williams said in his first comment about playing Team USA.
In his first competitive action since the Yankees chose not to re-sign him following the 2006 season, Williams is hitless in four at-bats over three games in this tournament.
“I still have a long way to go,” Williams said. “I’ve got to be realistic. I haven’t played in two years right now, so it’s a work in progress.
In the hands of Echo Park textile designer Rachel Craven, traditional linen napkins and tablecloths become modern accessories.
Craven cites minimalist grid painter Agnes Martin and colorful Finnish design house Marimekko as influences, and the dissimilar pair are evoked in the hand-printed arrows, fine lines and crosses that distinguish Craven's work.
For the holidays, Craven has designed flax and gray-green linens with gold and copper leaf prints. Flax linen tablecloths are $220, and sets of four flax linen napkins are $96. A printed flax linen apron with leather straps is another great handmade-in-L.A. gift at $96.

MUMBAI/TOKYO (Reuters) - Creditors of Essar Steel India Ltd ESRG.UL have approved a joint offer by ArcelorMittal SA (MT.AS) and Japan’s Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corp (5401.T) as the final bid for the debt-laden asset, ArcelorMittal said in a statement on Friday.
This paves the way for the two companies to take control of the 10 million tonne-per-year Essar Steel plant, marking the first participation of global steel majors in the fast-growing Indian steel market without a local partner.
ArcelorMittal and Nippon Steel said they have already drawn up plans to double output of the unit in the coming years.
“A long-term aspiration (is) to increase finished steel shipments to 12-15 million tonnes through the addition of new iron and steelmaking assets,” ArcelorMittal said.
Essar Steel’s mill in the western state of Gujarat is currently operating at 6.5 million tonnes a year due to constraints from iron ore supply and shortages of natural gas used to run its furnace.
The approval potentially brings to a close a year-long tussle for one of the most attractive assets under the new insolvency process in India. Essar Steel’s assets had drawn interest from Indian steelmakers such as JSW Steel (JSTL.NS) and Vedanta Ltd (VDAN.NS), and banks such as Russia’s VTB Bank.
ArcelorMittal and South Korean steel giant Posco (005490.KS) have also been trying to set up a steel mill in India for more than a decade, but problems with land acquisition have kept their plans from going forward.
Posco dropped its plans to build a steel unit in the eastern state of Odisha last year.
In its statement on Friday, ArcelorMittal said the company would pay a total of 420 billion rupees ($5.73 billion) towards Essar Steel’s debt and put another 80 billion rupees into operations and profitability.
“ArcelorMittal will own the majority stake, and Nippon Steel will own a nearly equal stake,” a Nippon Steel spokesman said.
The companies would increase the output of Essar Steel to 8.5 million tonnes a year, from 6.5 million tonnes, and later take it up to 15 million tonnes a year, the statement said, without giving a timeline.
Essar’s founders - the Ruia family - have tried to hold on to the steel asset, first through a minority stake in VTB-led consortium Numetal, which bid for Essar Steel, and later via a last-ditch effort on Thursday through an independent offer.
The tussle between Numetal and ArcelorMittal went all the way to India’s Supreme Court, which this month ruled that any bidders would have to settle all pending dues tied to any distressed assets they were associated with before they could bid for the steel plant.
ArcelorMittal announced last week that it had cleared the dues of Uttam Galva and KSS Petron, two other smaller defaulters that it was previously associated with.
Essar Steel was among a dozen of India’s biggest debt defaulters pushed to bankruptcy court last year by a central bank order aimed at clearing $147 billion in bad loans.
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Police Commissioner Major General Antony Anderson says the reduction in the country's murder figures is the most significant marker of the impact of the state of public emergency (SOE) now in force across five police divisions.
He was speaking a short while ago at sitting of the Internal and External Affairs Committee of Parliament, which included Chief of Defence Staff Major General Rocky Meade and Permanent Secretary in the National Security Ministry, Dianne McIntosh. The heads of the security forces were answering questions about the successes of the SOE.
The police commissioner insisted that it is significant that more than 140 less people have been killed in St James for example, during the period of the SOE.
He also argued that the fact that residents feel safer is a qualitative measure that is also of great importance.
As of Sunday sections of St Andrew South, Kingston Central, and Kingston Western were declared under a SOE by Prime Minister Andrew Holness. This is in addition to St James, and St Catherine North.

Government urges low pay commission to consider youth unemployment in minimum wage decision | City A.M.
The government has urged the Low Pay Commission to consider the impact of the national minimum wage (NMW) on youth unemployment, in its interim evidence for the Low Pay Commission's 2014 report published earlier today.
Pre-recession trend growth is not expected until 2015. Government would therefore want the LPC in their 2014 report to consider concentrating their attention on the effect of the NMW on employment.
The government's evidence highlighted the fact that the NMW increased faster than median earnings between April 2011 and April 2012 and the adult minimum wage increased to its highest level ever. The NMW has also increased faster than median hourly earnings for young people. The increase in the apprentice rate was also higher than the adult minimum wage and the rise in average earnings over the same period.
Conditions for young people are a continuing cause for concern, with youth unemployment seven percentage points higher than before the recession with just under one million young people unemployed. The report reminds the LPC of the particular vulnerability of young people during times of economic stress.
As highlighted in the LPCs 2013 report, it is important to consider that the labour market performance of younger workers tends to be hit hard during and after economic recessions, and labour market outcomes tend to be more sensitive to economic cycles than adults.
The government confirmed that it would be changing its policy regarding compliance with the NMW. The government previously had seven criteria by which to judge an employer worthy of being named and shamed. Since the government only found one employer in 2011 who merited the penalty, it has decided to scrap these criteria.
Young unemployed people must attend job "boot camp"
Johannesburg - The South African Guild of Motoring Journalists’ 2017 Motor Sportsman of the Year is 21-year-old Kelvin van der Linde.
Double former award winner Van der Linde - who is only 21 years old - was honoured for the third time in five years for his achievements racing an Audi R8 in Australia, America and Europe, where was a member of the team that won the prestigious Nurburgring 24 Hours in Germany.
He is the second member of the Van der Linde motorsport dynasty, now in its third generation, to receive the Michelin-sponsored award - his uncle Etienne won in 1997.
His younger brother Sheldon was also one of the nominees this year, for finishing third in the ADAC championship in Germany in an Audi RS, and winning the 24-hour Petit Le Mans race at Road Atlanta in the United States.
Other South African motorsport stars nominated were Matthew Scholtz, winner of the US SuperStock 1000 title and American Motorcyclists Association Hall of Fame inductee, former South African Superbike champion Sheridan Morais, who won the German round of the World SuperSport series, and 12-times South African Motocross champion Ryan Hunt, recipient of an MSA lifetime achievement award for representing South South with great success in international events over a career of nearly four decades in Britain, Europe, and the United States.
Closer to home, Wilhelm Baart was nominated for winning his class at the Jaguar Simola Hill Climb in his 735kW Nissan GT-R, and becoming the first driver to break the 40 second barrier on the Simola hill, while Richard Leeke got the nod for becoming the youngest driver yet to win a national rally with a victory in the Volkswagen Rally at the age of 21 - in fact he was in contention for the 2017 SA Rally title right down to the final round.
The 18th Colin Watling award for non-competitors in motorsport went to Des Easom and his team at the Western Province Motor Club at Cape Town’s Killarney International Raceway, for organising the final round of the 2017 World Rallycross championship - the first time that a world championship motorsport meeting had been run in South Africa since the SA Motorcycle Grand Prix at Phakisa in 2004.
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, or DUNE, broke ground in South Dakota on Friday, and nearly 1,000 scientists, professors, engineers, students and other collaborators from more than 30 countries will be building and operating it.
We’re exploring the most fundamental nature of the universe.
DUNE’s approach will be to orchestrate the collisions of neutrinos and anti-neutrinos fired at the speed of light through 800 miles of the earth’s crust from the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory near Chicago to the future Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota.
The facility will be built over the next 10 years, although it will allow for scientific experimenting at various stages starting in the next few years.
UTA factors heavily in the South Dakota site, where a four-story-high, 70,000-ton detector will be built under ground to catch the neutrinos. Physics professor Jaehoon Yu, Asaadi and about a dozen graduate and undergraduate physics students are developing the technologies and the giant instruments that will comprise the capturing and studying end of the project.
Yu was excited as he arrived at the groundbreaking site Thursday night.
It also could provide answers about dark matter, which is mass throughout the universe that doesn’t emit or reflect light and comprises far more of the universe than visible matter.
The UTA group is focused on developing and building not only the argon chambers but a metal cage around the chambers to produce an electric field that will help scientists see the neutrino interactions.
