The story of the first Irish bobsleigh team to take part in the Olympics.

Cutting-edge technology. Sleek, ultra-modern buildings. The capital's second hub is on a fast track to the future. In the run up to the 2024 Olympics, and with the prospect of 33 million visitors in 2020 alone, Orly has its work cut out for it. Less than 12 kms from Paris, and with strict flight curfews, the challenges to transform the airport-from rebuilding its two runways to linking the airport to Paris by metro-are as great as its dramatic renovation plans. Prepare for takeoff.

“We’re at a moment of immense danger,” warns HuffPost correspondent Akbar Shahid Ahmed, as the Trump administration appears increasingly amenable to escalating conflict with Iran. Ahmed shares what we know about the U.S. military buildup and the “magical thinking” of regime change rhetoric among Washington, D.C., policymakers that could turn into a “hugely devastating” war with Iran. Above all, says Ahmed, Trump’s boasts about being an antiwar leader have not come true: “We haven’t seen him solve any of the wars that he said he would address.”

Discovery of lost underground cities across the world that may be older than time itself reveal an entirely new and strange ancient past that researchers are only beginning to understand. Why has this been concealed from the public?

Israel has launched a large-scale military attack on Iran, killing top military officials, nuclear scientists and civilians in the deadliest attack on the country in decades.
