Big U.S. data breaches offer treasure trove for hackers
By
Andrea Shalal WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A massive breach of U.S. federal
computer networks disclosed this week is the latest in a flood of
attacks by suspected Chinese hackers aimed at grabbing personal data,
industrial secrets and weapons plans from government and private
computers. The Obama administration on Thursday disclosed the breach of

they believe the hackers are based in China, but Washington has not
publicly blamed Beijing at a time when tensions are high over Chinese
territorial claims in the South China Sea.Read More ...

TLC's Duggar daughters say forgive brother for molestation
Two
of the daughters in TLC's reality show "19 Kids and Counting," told Fox
News on Friday that they had forgiven their brother Josh Duggar for
molesting them in the past, but said they felt 'revictimized' in recent
weeks by the media outlets that have dredged up the juvenile offenses.
Jill Dillard, 24, and Jessa Seewald, 22, told "The Kelly File" host
Megyn Kelly that they weren't initially aware of inappropriate advances
around 12 years ago from their then-teenaged brother. "It was very
subtle, and so I think that for us, we realized this is serious, but at
the same time, it wasn't like a horror story." Dillard and Seewald, both
now married, said that their family had forgiven Josh Duggar, now 27,
who was never arrested or charged for the offences that involved four
sisters and a babysitter, including a girl aged under 10 at the time.Read More ...
IS using chlorine as a weapon, Australia’s Foreign Minister says
By
Morag MacKinnon PERTH (Reuters) - Islamic State militants have used
chlorine as a weapon and are recruiting highly trained technicians in a
serious bid to develop chemical weapons, Australia’s Foreign Minister
Julie Bishop warned. In a speech to an international forum of nations
that works to fight the spread of such weapons, Bishop said the rise of
militant groups such as ISIS, also known as Daish, posed “one of the
gravest security threats we face today.” “Apart from some crude and
small scale endeavors, the conventional wisdom has been that the
terrorist intention to acquire and weaponize chemical agents has been
largely aspirational,” Bishop told a meeting of the Australia Group in
Perth. “The use of chlorine by Daish, and its recruitment of highly
technically trained professionals, including from the West, have
revealed far more serious efforts in chemical weapons development,” she
said.Read More ...
