Hillary Clinton is currently leading Donald Trump by 12points and has reached 50% support nationally among likely voters, a new ABC News tracking poll shows.

The poll shows Clinton with 50% support to Trump's 38%, with 5% backing Libertarian Gary Johnson and 2% supporting the Green Party's Jill Stein.
The poll comes on the heels of the third presidential debate, which a post-debate CNN/ORC snap poll showed Clinton won.


Clinton leads among voters of all education levels -- but her 3-point advantage with those without college degrees is smaller than her 20-point lead among voters with college degrees.

Conway touts Trump's 'drain the swamp' message, admits 'we are behind'
Trump's strongest followers remains white, non-college educated voters, who back him 55% to 36%.
The results showing Clinton with a growing lead largely match CNN's Poll of Polls, which averages recent national surveys. That Poll of Polls shows Clinton ahead 48% to Trump's 39%.
The ABC News poll was conducted October 20-22 and includes 874 likely voters. Its margin of error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

Another day, another piece of high-end real estate for reality star, makeup mogul, and Snapchat enthusiast Kylie Jenner. The 19-year-old is now the proud owner of her fourth residence, an eight-bedroom, 11-bathroom Cape Cod-style mansion in Hidden Hills, California, according to Trulia.

Built in 2015, the home — which clocks in at 13,200 square feet — sits on 1.4 acres and includes plenty of amenities perfectly suited to a gazillionaire teenager and her ever-present squad, including a home theater, a game room, a swimming pool, a spa and massage room, and a giant gourmet kitchen ideal for the star’s cooking tutorials frequently posted to her paid app.


During the last 18 months, Kylie — the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan — has been upwardly mobile in terms of her big-ticket purchases. In June 2015, the teen bought her first house, a Mediterranean style estate, in Calabasas for $2.7 million before putting it up for sale and upgrading to a $6 million Hidden Hills mansion in April 2016.

In August, Jenner snapped up yet another $4.5 million mansion right next door which she reportedly planned to use as both a workspace for Kylie Cosmetics and a chill pad for her friends.

No word yet on whether the new spot will serve as a full-time residence or simply a staycation home, but you can bet you’ll be intimately acquainted with every single inch if you’re a Kylie follower on any number of social media platforms.

The listing agents, Marc Shevin and Rory Shevin of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

There was speculation that she recently bought another home in Manhattan

Not far from Mohamad Al Mawsily's studio, fierce battles are raging to oust ISIS from the northern city of Mosul. But from his secret location, the young Iraqi businessman is waging another war against the militants on a daily basis. Less bloody? Yes. But, still potentially lethal.

There are no bullets and bombs in this building. No high-definition images of war being broadcast to the world on TV or social media. Here, there are only two things that ISIS hates: music and truth.
Almost a year after ISIS imposed its signature tyranny in Mosul and surrounding Nineveh province, Al Mawsily and two partners launched a radio station for the million or so residents left trapped in the beleaguered city. They named it Alghad, or tomorrow, in hope of a better future

Alghad FM broadcasts into Mosul as well as online, where displaced Iraqis around the world can listen.
Alghad FM defies ISIS with its programs, and so everything about the station has to be kept underground, including the identities of the staff. Al Mawsily means "from Mosul" and is not the 28-year-old founder's real name. He didn't even tell his own parents about his clandestine endeavor, though they eventually pieced it together.

Alghad's studio in the relatively safe Kurdish region of Iraq -- CNN was invited there after a pledge to not give away the location -- offers no signage or other visible clues the station is relaying the voices of Mosul that would otherwise go unheard.
"It was a way for us to break the siege by Daesh," Al Mawsily tells me in his office on this evening, using the Arabic term for ISIS.
We have loyal listeners in an abnormal time and in an abnormal situation.

Al Mawsily

I've arrived just in time for the start of Alghad's popular 50-minute segment called "Deliver Your Voice." The talk show is similar to others in many ways, except one: Most of the callers are from a city under siege.
"We have loyal listeners in an abnormal time and in an abnormal situation," Al Mawsily says. "It is important to break the ideas of Daesh. They want people not to trust each other."
Battling horror of ISIS: Iraq's bloody crisis up close
Those listeners include people from Nineveh province displaced from their homes by violence. They live elsewhere in Iraq or as refugees in Europe, Australia and the United States and live-stream the broadcasts online.
"We've developed a Moslawi community," Al Mawsily says. "The radio station is their way of communicating with their loved ones."

ISIS plunged Mosul, Iraq's second-largest city and once its most diverse, into darkness, severing it from the outside world. No more satellite television, internet, music, movies, books or anything that contradicted the official militant line. Most recently, ISIS banned cell phones, although some Moslawis still use theirs surrepitiously.

Hundreds of thousands of people, including Al Mawsily, fled ISIS rule and extreme punishment for violating the harshest interpretation of Sharia.
Educated aat the University of Colorado in Denver, Al Mawsily dresses in blue jeans and collared shirts and speaks almost flawless English. He tells me he remembers every detail about the June day in 2014 when ISIS fighters rolled into Mosul, waving Kalashnikovs and black flags.
It was 2 in the morning, long past curfew, when he fled his house with his parents, not knowing he might never see home again. Since then, he's learned that an ISIS commander is now living in their house.
Al Mawsily tossed a few clothes and important documents, including his passport, into a Samsonite carry-on and raced to the Kurdish border with his parents. Normally, the drive takes less than an hour but on that day, Al Mawsily's family was part of an exodus and the journey to the Kurdish checkpoint took nearly 24 hours. His mother and father were so exhausted that at one point Al Mawsily tried to return to Mosul but quickly realized the foolishness of that decision. By the time they hurtled back to Kurdish territory, the white paint of his new Kia Optima had turned ruddy and the body was punctured with dents and scratches from the helter-skelter off-road driving.

The station's hosts don't use their real names on air for fear of retaliation by ISIS.
The station's hosts don't use their real names on air for fear of retaliation by ISIS. f retaliation by ISIS.
Still, Al Mawsily knew he was lucky. His family had money and they could afford to establish a semblance of a new life in a new place. So many of his fellow Moslawis were either left to suffer at home or forced into squalid camps housing hundreds and thousands of the displaced.
Although he escaped, Al Mawsily felt compelled to do something that would keep Mosul alive to the outside world. The way to do that, he figured, was to make sure the city's residents were able to break through the censorship and propaganda of ISIS and make their reality known.
He collected private donations and also spent a good chunk of his own money to put the radio station together, complete with sophisticated equipment and a clean décor that includes tufted white leather chairs.
Alghad began broadcasting music, songs and analysis that questioned the credibility of radical Islam and the authority of the caliphate ISIS had declared. It aired the observations and opinions of Moslawis that cast doubts over the ISIS version of life in the city.
Mosul residents have to call in surrepitiously into the radio station since cell phones and the internet were banned by ISIS.


One little radio station had become a prickly thorn in the side of the militants. Its programs burned in the ears of irritated ISIS leaders who began jamming Alghad's signals.
But that only prompted Al Mawsily to invest even more money into Alghad. He bought four powerful transmitters that allowed him to conduct serious battle on the airwaves. These days, Alghad broadcasts over two of its frequencies; ISIS has jammed another; and the last is used to block the Islamic State's transmissions of propaganda.
Iraqis remember gentler times in Mosul
The clock's hour hand reaches 6. It's time for a two-minute newscast about the day's events.
Iraqi troops and Kurdish Peshmerga liberated some of the mostly Christian villages and towns on the Nineveh plains outside Mosul. "Long live Iraq. Long live Mosul," the reader announces.
Then Ahmad Salim takes the chair to begin the call-in show, which had been airing five days a week but is being extended to seven as the Mosul offensive heats up. Though Ahmad Salim is just his on-air name, his radio voice is authentic: deep, smooth and soothing.
What's happening in Mosul? Your questions answered
His first guest is Rahma, a young woman from Mosul who describes artillery and mortar fire throughout the day, especially on the west bank of the Tigris River. Subsequent callers confirm Rahma's account and say people fear the worst.
Men fighting with the Golden Brigades of the Iraqi forces call in to report the liberation of the Christian town of Bartella. In the background we hear singing and celebration, perhaps premature.
"We are ready to sacrifice our blood for Mosul," they chant, blending politics and poetry as Iraqis have done for decades.
Every caller from Mosul takes a risk to call in... Death.

Al Mawsily

One by one, callers give accounts of life in Mosul, which Al Mawsily often tries to verify through his contacts in the city.
The callers fear they will be trapped within concrete walls ISIS is erecting in neighborhoods. They describe ISIS booby-trapping buildings and planting IEDs. They say ISIS is lowering its numbers on the streets -- perhaps to fool advancing forces into thinking there won't be much of a fight.
And they talk of their hope of being free.
Toward the end of the show, a woman named Zahra is on air. Salim, the baritone host, asks her about what she is seeing around her. She is audibly upset.
"There is no food. Life is hard. We are in a chaotic situation," she says. "But we don't care if we starve. We just want liberation to come."
Callers from Mosul risk their lives to make their voices heard on Alghad, which means "better tomorrow."
Callers from Mosul risk their lives to make their voices heard on Alghad, which means "better tomorrow."
Salim has been composed through the entire show but is now fighting tears. The producers in the sound booth look at each other, not knowing what to do. Salim manages to hold it together. There is defiance, after all, amid Zahra's sorrow.

Al Mawsily is also on the verge of crying. Zahra is the spirit of Mosul, he says.
He tells callers not to identify themselves or give away their locations or divulge specifics about their situations. He is all too aware of the consequences.
"Every caller from Mosul takes a risk to call in," Al Mawsily says. "Death."
Life in Mosul under ISIS full of 'fear and hardship'
He has received threats himself from ISIS, but the danger is so much greater for people still living in Mosul. He feels honored they are willing to take such a huge chance to make the call to Alghad.
"When I sleep at night, I feel like I have done something," he says. "Nothing is as valuable as a drop of human blood."
When I sleep at night, I feel like I have done something.

Al Mawsily

Two months ago, a poor man from Mosul called in to the show and said he spent his last few dinars buying cellular call time. It was not to report an emergency or speak with a faraway loved one; the man simply wanted to express himself freely the only way he could: on Al Mawsily's radio station.
The man wanted the world to know he was a proud Mosul resident who opposed the brutal reign of ISIS over his hometown. He called in just to encourage the underground radio station to keep broadcasting, despite the many dangers.

The man said he had no money left after the call and knew that because he had crossed ISIS, he risked death if discovered, Al Mawsily tells me.
"It's not logical in that situation to spend your last dollar on a phone call," he says. "To that man, it was very important. Expressing himself was part of proving his identity."
Al Mawsily carries that call with him always. It buoys him in his unusual undertaking.
He hopes one day soon the radio station will no longer have to operate clandestinely and will contribute to the stabilization process. If and when Mosul is free.

Its quite sad to announce the death of well, over hundreds, as ISIS executed 284 men and boys as coalition forces closed in on Mosul, an Iraqi intelligence source told CNN.

Those killed on Thursday and Friday had been rounded up near and in the city for use as human shields against attacks that are forcing ISIS out of the southern sections of Mosul, the source explained.

ISIS used a bulldozer to dump the corpses in a mass grave at the scene of the executions -- Mosul's defunct College of Agriculture in the north of the city, the intelligence source said.

The victims were all shot and some were children, said the source, who wanted anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media. CNN could not independently confirm the claim.

The United Nations earlier said it is "gravely worried" that ISIS has taken 550 families from villages around Mosul and is using them as human shields as Iraqi and Kurdish forces battle the terror group for control of Iraq's second-largest city.

Two hundred families from Samalia village and 350 families from Najafia were forced out Monday and taken to Mosul in what appears to be "an apparent policy by ISIS to prevent civilians escaping," Ravina Shamdasani, deputy spokeswoman for the UN Human Rights Office, told CNN.
Meanwhile, ISIS militants attacked security buildings in Kirkuk, 175 kilometers (109 miles) southeast of Mosul

Kemi in an interview with International Business Times, says her sexual life and mental health were affected after she was mutilated as a child.
According to her, the grave act was committed on her at age five when a family member took she and her sister to meet a man who placed them on his lap and “then cut part of our vagina and clitoral area off.


"There was no anaesthetic to ease the pain and a sharp razor blade was used. I remember my sister and I screaming in pain afterwards," she said. Adding, "We went home bleeding. Deep down, mom was not happy for some reason."
Olunloyo told IBTimes UK after years of resentment towards her mother, she finally confronted her in 2012. "She burst into tears telling me that our late paternal grandma ordered my dad to have us do it

"It was a cultural barbaric act used to decrease the female libido. It caused me post-traumatic stress disorder for life. I don't experience orgasm during sex and when I tried to promote the use of intimacy gadgets among Nigerian women, men started attacking me saying I was discouraging African women 'from the real thing." "Sex is not important. I have no libido or urge to have sex and I've been celibate for 10 years. Millions of women in Nigeria go through this, but they cannot talk or be outspoken like me. It is shameful and a disgrace to them."

SAY NO TO FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION!

An operation in some forests in Toro Local Government Area of Bauchi State has led to the arrest of 14 armed men, suspected to be kidnappers by some joint security men.

The joint security operation, which comprised the police, in cooperation with a vigilance group, were said to have stormed the criminals’ hideouts in the forests.



The Police Public Relations Officer, Bauchi State Command, Mahmoud Mohammed, said in a statement on Friday that all the suspects were arrested and weapons were also recovered.

Mohammed said two persons taken hostage by the suspects were also rescued alive.

“Police detectives attached to Anti-kidnapping unit/Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Command in collaboration with Danga Security and a vigilance group stormed criminals’ hideouts inhabited by suspected kidnappers at Jauru, Jange, Bahago, Felu and Geji forests, all in Toro Local Government Area of Bauchi State,” he said.

He gave the names of the suspects as Umar Gwamna, 19; Ibrahim Yahaya, 25; Hussaini Hamisu, 20; Salisu Adamu, 20; Salmanu Hamisu, 23; Ibrahim Hussaini, 25; Abdullahi Hamisu, 23; Yahaya Mai Saje, 21; Lukman Hamisu, 18; Nasiru Halilu, 20; Sani Abdullahi, 35; Musa Audu, 22; Rabiu Adamu, 20; and Mohammed Abdullahi, 40; all of Jana’s District of Toro LGA.

According to the PPRO, items recovered from the suspects included five motorcycles, three fabricated guns, one rifle and four handsets.

He said investigation into the matter had begun after which the suspects would be prosecuted.

The Adamawa State Police Command has said it is fulfilling its promise to keep the state safe by arresting 18 armed robbery suspects in the state.

The state Commissioner of Police, Musa Kimo, stated this while parading the suspects at the command headquarters recently. He said the arrests were made between October 8 and 12, 2016, while they were carrying out their operations.

He said the police had identified all the notorious black spots in the state and that his officers and men were being posted to the areas on a 24-hour operation.

He said, “You would recall that on my assumption of duty as the Commissioner of Police, Adamawa State Command, I pledged that my ultimate vision would be to ensure that Adamawa State is safe and secured. It is on this premise that the command re-strategised its operations by putting in place measures to confront all crimes in the state head-on.

“I am pleased to inform you that the measures put in place have started yielding positive results. These undesirable elements that have hitherto robbed people of their valuables unchallenged, particularly along Numan/Lafiya, Numan/Ngurore and Ngurore/Mayo-Belwa Roads are now faced with superior firepower, and this has led to the arrest of seven armed robbers along the identified roads. The others fled. This occurred on October 8 and 9, 2016.

“In the same vein, on October 12, 2016, the same gang of armed robbers that has been terrorising travellers along Ngurore Mayo Inne Road, was also intercepted while carrying out an operation. Four suspects were arrested while others escaped with bullet wounds. The suspects are Adamu Saidu, Muhammadu Anaruwa, Mohammed Sani and Hassan Danmmanu, all of Nyibango village.”

most of us are guilty of coming home and directly heading towards the fridge for some cold water as a relief from the scorching heat outside.

Even though ice has many health benefits, drinking ice water or cold water can only give temporary relief and drinking ice water regularly has its downside.Here are some reasons why you shouldn’t drink ice or cold water:

1. Interferes with your digestion: Drinking ice water or cold water hampers the process of digesting food as it causes your blood vessels to shrink. This can slow down the process of digestion and as the food is not digested properly, the nutrients are lost or not absorbed by the body. You may like to read about home remedies for better digestion2. Robs you of nutrients: The body’s temperature is 37o C and when you drink something at a very low temperature, your body has to spend energy to regulate its temperature. This spent energy is otherwise used to digest food and absorb nutrients, thereby leaving your body short of nutrition.

3. Increases your chances of getting a sore throat: Drinking cold water can cause the buildup of respiratory mucosa, which is a protective layer of the respiratory tract. When this layer gets congested, the respiratory tract is exposed and becomes vulnerable to various infections and hence the chances of your throat turning sore are high. You may like to read about 6 ways to prevent a sore throat from worsening.

4. Decreases your heart rate: Drinking ice water or cold water decreases your heart rate. Studies have shown that drinking ice water stimulates the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve and is an important part of the body’s autonomous nervous system that controls involuntary actions of the body. The vagus nerve mediates the lowering of the heart rate and the low temperatures of ice cold water act as a stimulus to the nerve which causes the heart rate to drop

King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand, one of the world's longest-serving monarchs, who reigned through an era of rising prosperity and frequent political turmoil, died on Thursday October 13, according to a statement from the Royal Palace. He was 88 at the time of his death.thai2

A member of the Chakri dynasty, which has occupied the Thai throne since the 18th century, US-born and Swiss-educated man was a deeply revered figure whose unifying appeal stretched across the spectrum of Thai society, from the rich urban elite to poor provincial farmers.

Toward the end of his reign, as his health declined, the King's presence in public life waned. Before his death, analysts expressed concern that his passing will remove a vital point of unity in an increasingly divided country.thai3

From 1946, when he acceded to the throne, to the present, Bhumibol reigned over more than 20 prime ministers, more than a dozen coups (both attempted and successful) and repeated constitutional changes. He also helped the country navigate the disruptive effects of the nearby Vietnam War during the 1960s and '70s.
