“Kate you know usually I have my jugs on display when I come on Good Morning Britain,” Jacqui explained.

“You’re absolutely right Jacqui,” Ben remarked. 

“I’ve never noticed that,” Kate quipped. “I’m listening to what she has to say. I’m not staring at her jugs.”

Once the interview had come to an end, Ben said: “I can’t believe you never noticed Jacqui’s jugs.”

  • China’s economy has started to slow dramatically, even before US tariffs have had a chance to make an impact.
  • The government is scrambling to boost growth and walking back some of the measures it took to rein in debt and credit creation.
  • This means it is once again encouraging infrastructure investment — one of the biggest drivers of China’s debt bubble in the first place.
  • Beijing knows this is risky, and an analyst at Societe Generale says that by 2019 it could lead to the full return of shadow government borrowing and/or shadow banking. 

The Chinese economy has yet to feel the pain of US trade hostility, but it is slowing dramatically, to the alarm of government officials.

That means the government must once again stare down the Catch-22 of modern Chinese economics. Should it continue to crack down on easy credit and shadow financing to fight the massive debt bubble that’s been building since the global financial crisis, or should it loosen the reins in order to keep the economy growing at about 6.5% regardless of any instability tariffs might bring?

The guns were pointed at him, but Robert Međugorac wouldn’t budge. Minutes earlier, the 42-year-old father of five had heard gunshots shatter the Sunday-morning calm and had rushed out of his house with his roommate. Their neighborhood, near Zagreb airport, is popular with hunters. It’s legal to hunt there. But Međugorac and his friend stood in front of the hunters, daring them. The men with guns walked away. It was October 2017, and Međugorac, a vegan activist, had won that round.

Međugorac has been vegan for almost two decades. For the most part, it’s been a lonely journey, in a region notoriously unfriendly for the community. The seven nations that were split from the former Yugoslavia have the lowest density of vegan-friendly restaurants and food stores of all parts of Europe — and one-fifth the continent’s average — according to HappyCow, the global online guide to vegan and vegetarian food. Their local cuisines rely heavily on meat and dairy, and leather is a central component of fashion. Hunting is a popular hobby — and an industry.

Now, a growing vegan movement is tearing Croatia away from the rest of the region, and its own past, on animal rights, riding on global exposure the rest of the Balkans simply haven’t had. They’re physically blocking trucks carrying animals to slaughter, facing down hunting groups, ensuring ordinary Croatians can’t escape images of animal abuse and organizing public protests. On the internet, Facebook groups, YouTube videos and vegan blogs are drawing thousands of Croatians to a cause traditionally alien to them. Street activism is on the rise, and popular musicians and entrepreneurs are lending their voices, helping shine a light on the movement.

Unknown people contacted me to tell me I inspired them to make changes in their lives.

Mirna Lozić Mandić, vegan activist

The results of this burst of activism are showing up in myriad ways. Croatia now has five vegan-only restaurants for every million citizens, twice the average for the Western Balkans. Zagreb has more than 70 vegan-friendly restaurants, bars and shops, while Split and the coastal Dalmatia region have at least another 60. It wasn’t always this way. These restaurants have all come up since the turn of the century. And the targets of the vegan activists are taking note. The Sunday after Međugorac and his roommate stood between the hunters and their prey, activists gathered at the same spot, ready for a repeat.

“But hunters didn’t show up,” says Međugorac.

Guns aren’t the only threat Croatia’s vegan activists are willing to face. On a gray day, some 20 activists form a wall in front of the gate to a slaughterhouse as a truck ferrying animals tries to enter. “Stop,” one woman yells at the vehicle’s driver. He tries not to, but the activists stand unmoved. The driver brakes to a halt. The activists rush to the caged animals. One woman caresses a sheep. Another touches a cow and sobs, as the bewildered animal looks back at her. Eventually, they let the truck through. Forcibly trying to release the animals would have been illegal. But the activists had made their point.

Such vigils, unheard of in Croatia two years ago, are now regular. Activists held one outside a slaughterhouse in the central Croatian town of Sisak last November and have since led four similar protests in Vrbovec, northeast of Zagreb. Starting just last November, groups have already held four “Cube of Death” events — a popular tool of vegan activists globally — in Zagreb: occupying city squares and showing passersby videos of animal abuse. The port city of Rijeka witnessed a similar event this past spring.

And then there are strictly digital vegan proponents. In March this year, Mirna Lozić Mandić started a Facebook page and YouTube channel, where she shares vegan recipes and tips and tricks to adopt a plant-based lifestyle. In May, she launched a blog called VeggieTale Life, which has already recorded 4,000 visitors. Her mother, grandmother and sister have adopted veganism after her. Her sister now runs her own vegan blog. “Unknown people contacted me to tell me I inspired them to make changes in their lives,” Lozić Mandić says.

Veganism arrived in Croatia later than many other countries, says sociologist Dražen Šimleša of the Ivo Pilar Institute of Social Sciences in Zagreb. But that Croatia is now leading the region in bringing change is in keeping with its greater exposure to the rest of the world through tourism. In 2016, Croatia hosted 13.8 million foreign tourists, more than the combined number of tourists that visited the rest of its former Yugoslav colleague nations — Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Montenegro, Macedonia and Kosovo — according to the U.N.’s World Tourism Organization. For sure, some of the vegan restaurants in Croatia, especially in tourist-reliant towns like Dubrovnik, are likely catering significantly to foreign visitors. But with international interaction has come a home-grown movement that is drawing popular local icons too.

Croatian rapper IFeel laces his concerts with vegan messages, both in his country and while performing abroad, such as during a 20-city tour of Europe in October and November last year. A video by innovator and entrepreneur Mate Rimac explaining his reasons for turning vegan has been watched more than 120,000 times since he put it up on YouTube in May this year. Street performances are an emerging tool too. Dressed in black, 52-year-old Sanja Puškaš and her friends last year lay around a table they had set up in a Zagreb city square, carrying posters with animal images and messages such as “Choose food without me.” The idea, Puškaš says, was to show that “people can eat better and healthier if they choose non-animal products.”

The country’s vegan movement has its own divisions — and not just on tactics against the meat industry. Some activists argue that keeping pets violates the rights of those animals, as owners often sterilize them or restrict their movement. Others believe maintaining pets keeps the animals safe. But Međugorac sees this debate as part of the movement’s evolution.

What stimulates people to turn vegan can vary from individual to individual, says Šimleša. “Some people will be stimulated by some radical activist move, some by a documentary, some others by their friends,” he says. Croatia’s vegan movement itself, though, is beyond needing stimuli. Not even guns are stopping it anymore.

An optical illusion is going viral on the internet, thanks to the strange and confusing effect it has on people who look at it.

Optical illusions are designed to play visual tricks on your brain, often causing you to see things that aren’t really there.

This particular image, made up of a white pattern on a black background, has been circulated on image sharing site Imgur by user ottaken.

The pattern is made up of white semi circles which are designed in a series of diamond shapes.

When you look at it, you can’t help but think it is moving in a circular motion, causing your eyes to go from side to side.

However, in reality it is simply a still image, with the unusual pattern playing tricks on your brain.

The effect is so strong that it is almost impossible to stare at the pattern without your vision becoming blurry.

Try it for yourself – how long are you able to stare at it without having to look away from your computer screen?

The image, posted just three days ago on Imgur, already has over 2,000 views.

Imgur users were moved to comment on the strange visual pattern, and how it altered their perceptions.

One user wrote: “I love how our brains try and analyse and find patterns, bringing order that isn’t there.”

Another Imgur user said that images of this nature gave him a “headache” to look at.

He said: “One of my art professors showed us a bunch of optical illusions and we all had headaches by the end. Still cool though.”

Last week, a viral picture of a couple hugging circulated on the internet.

The picture features a couple embracing on a beach, with a brunette woman wrapping her arms tightly around her boyfriend.

Beside them is a wooden beach hut, and a calm sea can be seen in the horizon.

While the photo looks normal at first glance, a closer look makes the viewer very confused indeed.

The couple’s legs are not quite right, with a confusion as to where the man’s legs and woman’s legs are coming from.

To some, the woman seems to be lifting the man up in the air, his legs suspended above the ground.

A closer inspection shows the two sets of legs are emerging from the man’s shorts, with the feet pointing in opposite directions.

It is no wonder the post, uploaded by Imgur user EronHope, is captioned: “My brain hurts”.

No team has lost a match in Johannesburg after reaching 400 runs in the first innings and this South Africa team appears poised to continue that record, giving Australia a mountain to climb on day two of the fourth Test.

A fatigued Australian pace attack looked ready for the flight home – perhaps unsurprising after the wild and “draining” week – with more in The Wanderers wicket than the scoreboard suggested.

FOURTH TEST:Game Paine carries on after nasty blow

Australia was unable to capitalise on Pat Cummins and debutant Chadd Sayers’ crucial late wickets on day one, as No.6 Temba Bavumba (80 not out midway through the second sessions) frustrated the visiting attack on day two.

None of the current combatants were even born the last time Australia lost a series in South Africa, during a 4-0 clean sweep in 1969-70 just before the apartheid curtain fell.

Australia’s extraordinary record is one of its finest cricketing achievements, winning five and drawing two in an undefeated streak stretching back to 1993-4.

Tim Paine sent a scare through the Australian camp on the second day of the fourth Test after copping a whack on his problematic right hand after a 122 kilometre delivery from Sayers.

Team physio David Beakley came out to attend Paine at the end of the over, treating his thumb for several minutes, before resuming behind the stumps as South Africa built a compelling first innings total to place themselves in the box seat.

The aggressive and courageous Paine ignored his previous travails to stand right by the stumps to Sayers – as he has done to fellow medium pacer Mitch Marsh this series – whose brilliant delivery evaded Quinton de Kock’s outside edge and caught him on the right glove.

Pain, 33, has required seven operations and three bone grafts since his bad finger break in the 2010 T20 exhibition game and even had to change his grip, unable to hold the bat the way he once did.

A shock Test recall after starting the summer outside of Tasmania’s Shield team, Paine is one of the key figures for an Australian team looking to start a new chapter after the disastrous ball-tampering affair and he will have to tap into every ounce of positivity to inspire his players back into this contest.

The Paine incident epitomised Australia’s luckless first session, with several edges narrowly evading fielders as the Proteas ran away from the visitors.

David Warner’s press conference was the talk of The Wanderers on the morning of day two, with South Africa’s clear heads exploiting the new-look and emotionally fatigued Australians.

Bavuma and de Kock built a key 89-run first session partnership after Aiden Markram’s 152 off 216 balls laid a strong foundation.

Bavuma made his half-century, before spinner Nathan Lyon claimed the wicket of de Kock for 39 but the plucky Proteas dug in, with a whiff of history in the Wanderers air.

South Africa was 8-442 at lunch on day two.

and were chatting to Chidera about her campaign to help women celebrate their bodies and embrace their breasts.

The 23-year-old told the presenters that she herself considered having breast surgery when she found her body did not look like the women in clothing campaigns.

She told the ITV stars: “I would go to M&S and get my bra fitted, like you do, and I would get a bra in my size but when I tried it one, my boobs didn’t look like the woman on the packaging.

“That was far too early in my life to start disliking myself.”

Chidera opted for a low-cut lilac top for her appearance on This Morning, which Ruth was quick to comment on.

Apologising for staring at her breasts, Ruth explained: “You do have a very low cut top on.

“It is hard not to look but you don’t mind.”

She added that she felt uncomfortable calling her breasts “saggy” but would do as that is how Chidera refers to them.

“Saggy is just an adjective,” Chidera said.

Ruth went on to ask if anyone had commented on her “saggy boobs”.

“Yeah, in my Instagram comments I have had men saying, ‘Oh, you’re so young, why are your boobs sagging?”

Meanwhile, Eamonn wanted to know how people had responded to her Saggy Boobs Matter campaign.

“I have had an overwhelming, amazing response,” Chidera noted. “Teens have said that the hashtag has stopped them from going to consultations with a plastic surgeons.

She added that new mums who are breastfeeding have also reached out to praise her for raising awareness.

Many of those tuning into This Morning were quick to comment on Chidera’s interview and express their delight that she was so body positive.

“How fierce is this stunningly beautiful lady on @thismorning discussing embracing your “saggy boobs” ! I have real insecurities with my boobs since loosing a lot of weight & actually feel a little better about them after that segment!#ThisMorning,” one viewer wrote.

Another added: “@theslumflower spoke so much sense on #thismorning, what a wonderful young woman #bodyconfidence #inspiration.”

This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10.30am.

CEDAR PARK, Texas—”Last time you came out here, it was just a pile of dirt,” Firefly Aerospace CEO and rocket scientist Tom Markusic tells me. I looked it up afterwards—he’s not lying. Back in 2014 when Ars Senior Editor Lee Hutchinson traveled just north of Austin to visit Markusic’s then-infant new space company, he essentially got a rocket science lesson (charts and everything) and walked the patch of non-grass where the company would one day build its engine testing facilities.

Solar retinopathy is like a sunburn on the retina, a layer of tissue at the back of your eye, Habash tells BuzzFeed Health. “The part that’s damaged is the macula, the thinnest part of the retina, which controls the sharpest, centermost part of vision,” she says, noting that this part of the eye is also more prone to burning than the rest of it. “It can take a few seconds or a few minutes for damage to be done — everyone is different.”

As we previously reported, this can cause the center of your vision to turn into a grey or black spot, making it hard to focus on things like reading, driving, or even just seeing the people in front of you. That said, you probably won’t go completely blind from staring at the sun. Although the macula is very important to our eyesight, it’s still only responsible for one part of vision. “You won’t go completely blind from damage to the macula, since you’d still have your peripheral vision,” Schuman tells BuzzFeed Health.
