Apple (AAPL) to Cut iPhone Production 10% in Q1 2017
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) is expected to cut iPhone production 10% in Q1 2017, Nikkei reports citing calculations based on data from suppliers.
This would be the second year in a row for cuts. In last year's first quarter, the company cut production due to excess inventory of the iPhone 6s at the end of 2015.
This coming quarter data suggests production cuts in both the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. While the iPhone 7 Plus is popular with customers, a shortage of camera sensors has impacted the company's ability to meet demand, the report said.

Court sentences son of former House of Reps member to death by hanging
A High court sitting in Katsina State has sentenced 32 year old Mu’ammar Tukur, son of former House of Representatives member and District Head of Bakori, to death by hanging for culpable homicide.
Tukur was dragged before the court for using a knife to stab one Shafir Muktar to death on April 21st 2008 during a fight between him and some other young men at a football viewing center.
Delivering judgment in the case today, the presiding judge, Justice Abbas Bawale, said the argument put forward by the convict's counsel, AbdulAziz Olagoke, were unsustainable.
Bawale said that the accused went into hiding between 2008 and 2013 after committing the crime and was arrested at the grave yard during the funeral of his deceased mother.
He added that Tukur's explanation that he was provoked to commit the crime was not satisfactory because he left the scene and came with the metallic instrument to commit the crime.
The judge said the prosecution had proved the case beyond reasonable doubt as required by law and sentenced the convict to death by hanging. He stressed that the plea for leniency could not be entertained because the court’s discretion was blocked by law and directed that the plea should be set to the state governor.

An Open Letter To Black Santa: Give ‘Em Hell
Dear Black Santa,
As a little black girl from the South, all I ever saw was white, rosy-cheeked Santa Clauses plastered on Christmas posters and gluttonously eating all the milk and cookies on those propagandized holiday commercials. I never saw him for more than what he was – fiction.
He was another white fictional character sent to save the day, bring holiday cheer, and give to the poor little children. Someone reminiscent of white Jesus, or Batman.
I didn’t grow up in a household that pushed the whole Santa narrative, and I wasn’t tormented with the “naughty or nice list.” Perhaps my parents did not like the idea of a white man being seen as a superior being or something. My presents always said from Mom, Dad, Auntie, Grandma and so forth. As far as I knew, my presents were not the result of some jolly, corpulent, white man shimmying down a chimney but, I digress.
You see, I’ve decided to believe in you Black Santa, not because you too are being used as a promotional tool in one of the biggest capitalist holidays, but because of what you represent.
You are a racist’s worst nightmare, a catalyst for white fragility, and best of all my brotha!
Amazing day at @mallofamerica capped by a visit with #SantaLarry, who is kind, engaging and thoughtful! 🙌🏽 pic.twitter.com/iHyVN9eaJA— Sean Jensen (@seankjensen) December 4, 2016

Moscow, dec 25 (reuters) - a russian military plane carrying 92 people, including dozens of red army choir singers, dancers and orchestra members, crashed into the black sea on its way to syria on sunday, killing everyone on board, russian authorities said.
The russian defence ministry said one of its tu-154 tupolev planes had disappeared from radar screens at 0525 msk (0225 gmt), two minutes after taking off from sochi in southern russia, where it had stopped to refuel from moscow, on its way to syria.

Zimbabwe ships live elephants to wildlife parks in China
More than 30 wild elephants were being readied on Friday evening for an airlift from Zimbabwe to captivity in China, according to wildlife advocates.
The founder of Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force, Johnny Rodrigues, said on Friday that their plane was still at Victoria Falls airport because officials could not find scales big enough to weigh the animals, which were confined inside heavy crates.
But once that was accomplished, he added, “they’re gone”. Some of the elephants are reportedly as young as three years of age.
The live export of elephants is controversial, although legal. Wildlife advocates argue that elephants are do not belong in captivity and the practice of wild capture disrupts the social structure of their herds.

Lady who slept with rapper Nas spills tea about him
A woman who had sex with rapper Nas, describes, in graphic detail, her relationship with him.
He’s a heavy WEED smoker. I think he’s a low key alcoholic but he claims he isn’t. (He literally drinks [a lot of] Hennessy every single day, just for the fuck of it!)
He’s shy and for him to be famous and rich, he’s very down to earth and cool, he doesn’t act like hollywood famous at all.
He’ll fuck with anyone from your regular 9-5 women to your famous women in the industry – Long as you’re pretty with some type of sense. (I’m a regular with a career). He’s also fond of black women. Absolutely loves them, especially the brown and chocolate ones. SKINNY or THICK, whatever!
He also has a weird foot fetish. LOVES pretty FEET.
We’ve only fucked two times on ONE OCCASION. He’s always trying to fly me out to wherever he’s at but with my work schedule and being a full time temporary guardian to my nephew while his mother is deployed, I don’t have the time. So he’ll have to always come to me when he’s in my city for business or when he has some free time.
He likes to eat. ALOT. I told him once while we were facetiming he had his shirt off in bed at a room that his tummy was looking kind of FAT! Lay off the carbs! He told me he’s not worried about it he’s not a sex symbol, he can still see his dick when he look down and the hunnys aren’t complaining.
He barely smiles unless he’s laughing or you make him smile. He stays with a resting look. For him to be 43, he doesn’t act like it. He reminds me of a young man. He loves any and everything old school. He plays video games and watches old school cartoons he grew up on in the mornings while he eats breakfast. He’s very sweet. Jealous type and also has a FUCK it, it is what it is type of attitude. He hates when you don’t answer his calls or facetimes. When I miss his calls he’ll usually text my phone right after that says either “REALLY” or “NO ANSWER” –
We barely txt unless he’s texting me “good morning melanin,” he usually prefers seeing your face or actual calls.
He told told me he’s been with various women from chicks in their early 20s on up to their mid-40s. He hasn’t been in a relationship since Kelis. He’s just been dating around. We never talk about his personal life. I never bring up his kids or his past with Carmen and Kelis. He did tell me once that both of his baby mamas are “crazy bitches,” not sure if they get along or not.
I remember the night we stayed together, his phone started ringing and the name was stored under “THE BITCH” which I thought was hilarious. Not sure who that was.
He’s very sexual. Kinky much. He’s the third guy I’ve ever had sex with and he had me doing things I’ve never done before. I’m young so he had fun turning me out. I don’t think Mr. JONES is the relationship type YET. He loves the company of women much and often falls into temptation. He enjoys the single life. He loves giving and recieving head. He ate my pussy from the front and back for like 30 minutes. I rode his face as well. He told me he usually don’t put the tongue down on the first night because it’s brutal and causes strong feelings. HIS MOUTH IS DEFINTELY BRUTAL. Had my legs shaking and I’ve never had anyone make me cum as hard as him. He was the first guy to have ever made me squirt. He’s also a great kisser. Love to tongue kiss. Smells very good as well. He doesn’t have a lot of hair on his legs. I asked him did he shave and he told me no, his legs just never been hairy.
His dick is a nice decent size. He ain’t got the biggest dick, nor is it small. All I gotta say is he had me running and moaning. The last guy I slept with had the biggest thickest dick EVER and I swear Nas dick was way better and his dick was half as big as my ex!
I hated having sex with my ex! It’s like the sex was never good because he couldn’t fuck! It was always painful. Nas dick had me cumming out of control. It was pleasure and pain.
Nas likes for you to be in control. He likes being rode. He’s not too dominant. One thing tho! When we were kissing on each other, getting ready to fuck I HONESTLY do believe if I didn’t reach and grab my own condoms he would’ve fucked me raw. Idk if it’s because he was already intoxicated and so horny that he was on some fuck it shit or was he on some we’ve been talking for four months. She’s pretty, nice house, great career, her mind is right we have tons of things in common so she’s good enough to raw dog shit. I’ll have to ask him the next time we encounter lol. I would hope he doesn’t go around sleeping raw because of how pretty and good a chick is doing.

Arnold Schwarzenegger shows he has never been happy with his body
Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is popular for his ripped physique recently revealed what no one would expect from a man with body like his – that he was never satisfied with the way his body looks.
The bodybuilder, actor and politician who has won six Mr Olympia titles and starred in many popular movies said that looking at his body in the mirror makes him want to throw up.
Though he appeared confident most of the time, he was only faking it and behind closed doors he secretly asked himself how he managed to win the prestigious bodybuilding titles.
“When I look in the mirror, I throw up.” Schwarzenegger told Cigar Aficionado.
His lack of confidence in himself is what spurred him on to keep training and trying harder even after his numerous achievements. He credited his success to constant practice which he said made him appear confident.
“I could always find a million things wrong with myself and that’s what got me back into the gym - because I started out with that mentality.” He said.

China returns seized US underwater drone
According to Chinese and US officials, the Chinese government has returned the US underwater drone it seized last week in the South China Sea.
"After friendly consultations between China and the United States, the transfer of the US underwater drone was smoothly completed," a statement from the Chinese Ministry of Defense said.
The Pentagon said the United States would continue to investigate the "unlawful" seizure, which took place in international waters about 50 miles northwest of Subic Bay in the Philippines.
"The US remains committed to upholding the accepted principles and norms of international law and freedom of navigation and overflight and will continue to fly, sail, and operate in the South China Sea wherever international law allows, in the same way that we operate everywhere else around the world," the Pentagon said in a statement.
China has built up military bases in the South China Sea, which is home to a tense territorial dispute
