Well, Good Morning!
Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.
So, let's dig in, shall we?
Here's What You Need To Know... Woman rescued on Croatian island can't remember her name or how she got there A woman found in a remote part of a Croatian island cannot remember how she got there. She was found injured with cuts and bruises on her face. Authorities have circulated a picture of the woman in an attempt to figure out her identity, but so far their efforts have failed. The woman, who appears to be in her 60s, speaks English but has been unable to remember much else.
Although the woman still had her cell phone, nothing on the phone gave any clues toward her identity or the identities of anyone who may know her. She appears to have spent multiple days in the wilderness, surviving presumably on her own, before she was spotted by a fisherman off the shore of the island.
Fourteen members of Croatia's mountain rescue service (HGSS) were able to reach her after driving and then hiking a mile to where she was. "Down on the shore, we found a woman with minor injuries, she also had a few scratches and was extremely dehydrated and emaciated. She could barely take a few sips of water," the HGSS said.
How property giant Evergrande will impact the rest of the global economy as big crisis unfolds Yesterday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted over 600 points (the biggest drop in several months), as elsewhere in the world, stock markets saw a sharp fall. There are several reasons for the decline in the U.S. benchmark — chief among them, a crisis at the massive property developer in China, known as Evergrande. The company, which is weighed down by billions of dollars of debt, is expected to default on an upcoming payment this Thursday.
You might be wondering what this has to do with the markets in the U.S. But if the country's housing market and consumption suffers, the results would inevitably impact the rest of the globe. Experts believe that the government in China will be able to contain the situation before it becomes a crisis, but it is not clear how, exactly, officials will mitigate the situation. Volatility is expected in the interim.
The chief investment officer at Rockefeller Global Family Office, Jimmy Chang, said: "[Evergrande} has $300 billion in outstanding debt. There is a contagion issue if China Evergrande is not resolved. I think it will end up having some deep-pocketed state-owned enterprises take over."
Doctor who nearly killed partner in "exorcism" sentenced to prison An anaesthetist has been given 14-and-a-half years in prison due to his role in an apparent attempt to "exorcise" his partner. Dr. Hossam Metwally, 61, made dozens of recordings of himself administering fluids through a cannula to Kelly Wilson, who was left with multiple organ failure.
As he administered the drugs he chanted as part of a "dangerous perversion" of the Ruqya ritual — an exorcism in Islam. He believed Wilson was possessed by supernatural spirits known as jinns. Jinn are thought to be shape-shifting spirits that can transcend multiple realms of existence and interfere in human affairs — often in unpleasant ways.
Metwally and Wilson met in late 2014 while she, 27 at the time, was training to be a nurse. She was in her final year of university and he had given her drugs for her back pain. Within months, she began working at his private pain clinic in the Lincolnshire town, booking patients and assisting him with managing his stock of medicines. She later moved in with him at his home.
Within 12 months of their relationship forming, Metwally began to perform rituals upon Ms Wilson. He told his trial he came to believe she was possessed after she reacted angrily upon hearing the Islamic call to prayer on three occasions. He claimed he watched a "beautiful nice girl become a monster who wanted to attack me."
