Lhota’s rivals in the mayoral race, among them @placeholder, told the paper they would’ve stopped trains to save the pets. | By Nick Enoch PUBLISHED: 12:58 EST, 24 October 2013 | UPDATED: 17:52 EST, 24 October 2013 August and Arthur are two lucky cats, with quite a tale to tell. Back in August, the kittens brought the subway in Brooklyn to a standstill for several hours after they wandered onto the tracks - causing delays for commuters and even sparking a mayoral debate. Now, the cheeky duo have been adopted by a couple who live in the borough. Keith Lubeley, 33, and his wife Katherine Lynn, 30, were among the hundreds of people who wanted to adopt the now 11-week-old felines.

Lurigio said the @placeholder hideout was probably just one of many retreats. | (CNN) -- Al Capone's legend of bootlegging, gangland slayings and tax evasion lives on more than 60 years after the Chicago gangster's death. Now comes a footnote that is a sign of the times: foreclosure. Al Capone's former Wisconsin hideaway goes on the auction block on Thursday. A Wisconsin lodge that may have been one of Capone's old hideouts goes on the auction block this week with a starting bid of $2.6 million. The two-story stone lodge, tucked away on 407 acres in Couderay, Wisconsin, was owned by the Capone family in the 1920s. It will be auctioned Thursday on the steps of the Sawyer County Courthouse, three hours from Minneapolis, Minnesota, according to an ad in the Chicago Tribune.

That fatality was considered @placeholder's first serious incident of the 2012 mountaineering season. | (CNN) -- Recovery efforts on Alaska's Mount McKinley were suspended Sunday because of environmental hazards following an avalanche thought to have killed four Japanese climbers, the National Park Service said. The avalanche on the western side of the mountain, America's highest peak, was first thought to have occurred on Thursday, the parks service said Sunday. However, rangers later confirmed with climber Hitoshi Ogi, who survived the avalanche, and with teams on the mountain that the slide occurred early Wednesday. The section where the avalanche took place is roughly 11,800 feet above sea level, park spokeswoman Maureen McLaughlin said Saturday. The five were traveling on McKinley's West Buttress as one rope team, although the rope broke during the incident, officials said. One climber, Ogi, survived the incident after he was swept into a mountain crevasse and was able to climb out, sustaining a minor hand injury, officials said.

Israeli planes had conducted a bombing raid on Iran. How would your world have changed? Apart from the sensational headlines and breathless reports, the initial change might not be very significant. You would probably want to know whether the United States approved or assisted in the attack on Iran's nuclear sites. In fact, it doesn't really matter. Just about everyone in the world will assume that the U.S. was complicit, regardless of what Washington says. Let's assume that Israel notified the Obama administration about the same time the planes were taking off, if only to ensure that U.S. aircraft and missiles in the Persian Gulf region would not interfere with the bombers and refueling aircraft as they passed over one or more Arab countries.

He has recently responded to other accusations of sexual harassment in recent weeks by asserting he will eventually be vindicated, but he acknowledged he needs "help" and has been "clearly doing something wrong." Morgan Rose met with Filner in April 2009 at a Marie Callender's Restaurant & Bakery across the street from Filner's congressional office in Chula Vista, California, she told CNN.

"We hope It is the beginning of a republican dialogue," said Miaka Oureto, acting president of the Front Populaire Ivoirien, the party of former President Laurent Gbagbo, at the end of the meeting. Last week, Gbagbo's party pulled out of the commission in charge of the elections, citing a "recent modification of the electoral commission's composition in favor of the coalition of parties behind President Ouattara."

It is no wonder @placeholder has treated the offer of amnesty by the Jonathan-led government with disdain. | (CNN) -- President Goodluck Jonathan's response to the Boko Haram insurgency, including his recently declared state of emergency in three northern Nigerian states, is eerily reminiscent of previous approaches to sectarian violence in that region. The Maitatsine uprising of 1980 is perhaps the single most important precedent-setting example. In December 1980, the confrontation between the Al-Masifu Islamic sect -- which advocated purity in the practice of Islam -- and the people of Kano came to a head. The Nigerian army and air force mounted a campaign against the sect. In the end, more than 4,000 people were dead with double this number injured alongside massive destruction of property.

Many of the polls continue to show a tight race with the candidates remaining in a dead heat in the swing states. Whoever wins the election, it might not be by much. Close elections have produced challenges for the victor once he starts his term in the White House. If voters don't provide a clear mandate, presidents often find that they have added challenges when dealing with Congress, as legislators have far less fear about the commander in chief. In 1916, for example, President Woodrow Wilson won reelection against former Supreme Court Justice Charles Evan Hughes by 23 electoral votes and 3.1 percent of the popular vote. The victory, which depended on Wilson's assurances to keep the U.S. out of war, hardened the lines of partisan battle. Republicans returned to Washington angry about how he had used the potential for war against them, even as he ushered the nation into World War I soon after the election.

‘The form book goes out the window in Celtic-@placeholder matches. | Craig Gordon insists it’s wrong to bill Sunday’s Old Firm game as the most mismatched of all time - and claims Celtic’s chances of reaching the League Cup Final are no more than 50/50. The Scottish champions moved three points clear of Aberdeen at the top of the Premiership with a 1-0 victory over Ross County in Dingwall on Saturday, while Rangers, whose caretaker boss Kenny McDowall last week handed in his notice, remain mired in a boardroom crisis and trail Championship leaders Hearts by 13 points.

Alito was more forgiving of the regular @placeholder press corps. | (CNN) -- Sam Alito doesn't have "any complaints" about the press corps who cover the Supreme Court -- but the Associate Justice could do without "incredibly snarky" columnists. "Some of the columns that are written, you know, are another story," Alito said, in a rare public lecture on Constitutional history and law presented by the New York Historical Society on Saturday. "Some of them are written by people who are not very knowledgeable." Alito took particular issue with a New Republic column critical of the cloistered culture of the Court. "I was reading one, actually, reading one this morning that was complaining about the current membership of the Court, because unlike in past days, according to this columnist, we don't have a representation of drunks, philanderers, and a few, you know, a few other n'er do wells."

Some European Union nations have balked at ceding further powers to @placeholder authorities and have threatened to walk away. | London (CNN) -- European leaders recently thrashed out a deal aimed at ending months of uncertainty over the future of the euro and resolving an escalating debt crisis that has pushed several economies to the brink of collapse. The eurozone fiscal pact has to be ratified by 12 participating nations. The UK refused to sign up to the deal and now Ireland has called a referendum on the treaty -- a decision that could cause difficulties for the agreement. So what was originally agreed in the treaty negotiations? The "fiscal compact" outlines the closer integration of the national budgets of the 17 eurozone countries. A new legal framework and greater fiscal scrutiny will be imposed to avoid a repetition of the dubious financial practices that triggered the crisis. The treaty also agrees to strengthen mechanisms that guarantee short-term stability to euro economies in hot water.

Daniel Gregory is believed to have the only 'Roswell Caravan' in the UK, and maybe one of two in the world

‘We just look after ourselves and hopefully that will be enough,’ @placeholder added. | By John Mcgarry When Charlie Mulgrew left Celtic first time around, he did so not so much as under a cloud as under angry, darkened skies. A public spat with former manager Gordon Strachan stamped the player’s ticket to England – initially with Wolves – and there seemed no doubt back then that it was of the one-way variety. If the chances of the player returning to the home of his boyhood heroes looked slim as he embarked on a tour of duty including outposts like Southend, then the prospect of him skippering the Parkhead side one day looked next to nil.

"Within 10 minutes of the report the stewards had got hold of the TV footage, replayed it, identified the alleged person in question and within that period he was arrested for a racially aggravated public order offense," said a @placeholder spokesman. | (CNN) -- Written off by all and sundry as the most expensive flop in English Premier League history, Fernando Torres is seemingly back in business. Four goals in two games have transformed the misfiring striker from the on-pitch personification of Chelsea's recent problems to perhaps the man who can earn Rafael Benitez a bit more time in the club's managerial hotseat. "I said before that if the team play well and create chances he will score goals," Benitez said after Torres netted twice in Saturday's 3-1 win at Sunderland -- Chelsea's first victory in eight EPL games. "It's fair to say that we are watching a Torres with more confidence and belief. I was analyzing his movements and adjusting a few things. It's a question of confidence and differences in movements. The most important thing is that he appears confident."

The GP should also have examined Shannon’s calves where swelling is a tell-tale sign of DVT but it was so rare in someone of her age a @placeholder would think it was the least likely option. | By Chris Brooke PUBLISHED: 14:47 EST, 19 December 2012 | UPDATED: 14:47 EST, 19 December 2012 Caring: Shannon was a 'loving and absolutely fantastic daughter' and her father said: 'The day Shannon died we died' A teenager died from undiagnosed deep vein thrombosis just hours after visiting an out-of-hours doctor’s surgery. Student Shannon Deakin, 16, limped into the surgery with 'knife-like' pains after her left thigh became swollen and turned red. Newly-qualified locum general practitioner Dr Karim Mohammed diagnosed an infection and gave her antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs at the Care UK walk-in centre. Shannon, of Hoyland in South Yorkshire, was told to see her own GP within 24 or 48 hours and have an ultrasound scan if she was not any better - but she collapsed and died at home about 12 hours later.

The compact category has the Honda Civic Hybrid at the top of the ratings, with its 40/45 mpg, followed by Toyota's @placeholder and its 28/37 mpg rating. | (AOL Autos) -- With fuel prices still high enough to put a hole in your pocket, where does one turn? BMW's MINI division is the best average fuel-economy automaker. For some, it's a vehicle that's been engineered to sip, not guzzle. The question then: Which brand is more likely to ease you out of the gas station without feeling you've been turned upside down and shaken? Perhaps surprisingly, it's not always the Asian-based carmakers that come up on top where fuel economy ratings are concerned. A look at the U.S. government's official fuel economy ratings (published by the Department of Energy, the Office of Energy Efficiency and the Environmental Protection Agency) might not be light reading, but it does give a new sense of perspective on what is a very complex issue.

These people had gotten through Ebola just like I had, but here in @placeholder, where the resources, staff and treatment available were so much more limited. | (CNN)Last week, I had the privilege to greet a group of about 100 Ebola survivors who were meeting at the ELWA Hospital chapel: the very structure that, seven months ago, was Monrovia's first Ebola treatment unit. The group was diverse — elderly, young people, even little children. Some educated, some not. Roughly equal numbers of men and women; some dressed up in nice clothes, some in T-shirts, shorts and flip-flops. Some were clearly feeling happy just to have survived Ebola, with smiles on their faces, while others looked like they were still experiencing some of the trauma and stigma of Ebola: faces downcast, not making eye contact.

McCain recently called @placeholder "the most naïve president in history" because of his foreign policy tactics. | (CNN) -- While hosting CNN's Crossfire this week, I said: "Republicans are practically cheering for Vladimir Putin today. He's given them a new excuse to bash President Obama." I pointed out that Republicans have been slamming Obama for his handling of the Ukraine crisis even though I have not heard a single, specific way in which they would handle the situation differently. No new ideas, just new insults. The howls came quickly, and my assertion has been repeatedly attacked and mischaracterized. But the evidence to support it is, troublingly, everywhere. I'm not saying Republicans are pro-Putin or that they want him to invade Ukraine. But they certainly have — conveniently, even gleefully -- found a good way to put Putin's actions to political use at home. Just listen to former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani on Monday: "Putin decides what he wants to do and he does it in half a day... he makes a decision and he executes it. Quickly. Then everybody reacts. That's what you call a leader."
