World markets dive as Trump sparks trade, North Korea worries

Global stocks sank Wednesday after US President Donald Trump said he was not satisfied with talks that are aimed at averting a trade war with China. Equities were also dented by poor eurozone economic data, and as Trump cast doubt on a planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “Trump (is) continuing to drive uncertainty over global trade,” said analyst Joshua Mahony at trading firm IG. “European markets are following their Asian counterparts lower, as a pessimistic tone from Trump is compounded by downbeat economic data,” he added. Markets had surged Monday after US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He said they had agreed to pull back from imposing threatened tariffs on billions of dollars of goods, and continue talks on a variety of trade issues. However, Trump has declared that he was “not satisfied” with the status of the talks, fuelling worries that the world’s top two economies could still slug out an economically pain...

Mendy must bide his time after injury: Guardiola.

Pep Guardiola says he will not rush Benjamin Mendy back for Manchester City after six months on the sidelines following knee surgery however keen he is to play.
The French left-back, who made a big impression in the early weeks of the season after joining City from Monaco, has said he hopes to return to action next month.
But Guardiola wants to err on the side of caution and feels he may have to hold the 23-year-old back for his own good.
“The most important thing after six months is to be careful,” said Guardiola. “He believes, ‘I am strong, I will come back soon, I will play like I did before the injury.’ That is not happening.
“Even if he believes he is strong he is not strong enough. After six months, he has to be careful.”
The City boss said Mendy, who ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in September, was back in full training and could help out the team for short periods, following the approach taken with Ilkay Gundogan, who also suffered a serious knee injury, in December 2016.

The German was eased back into action at the start of this season but it was not until a year after the injury that he began to start games regularly again.
“We cannot forget Gundogan played in the past month a lot of games — I think all the games, 90 minutes, except the last one,” said Guardiola.
“But before that, he played one game, rested for two, one game, rested for two, because after six months, the next step is muscular injuries. You have to try to avoid that.
“Maybe he (Mendy) can go to the World Cup and come back next season stronger.”
City head to Stoke on Monday looking to claim the first of the four remaining wins they need to secure the Premier League title.

Saturated Fats vs. Unsaturated Fats.

Saturated Fats vs. Unsaturated Fats Diffen  ›  Food  ›  Diet & Nutrition The human body needs both  saturated fats  and  unsaturated fats  to remain healthy. Most dietary recommendations suggest that, of the daily intake of fat, a higher proportion should be from unsaturated fats, as they are thought to promote  good cholesterol  and help prevent cardiovascular disease, whereas an overabundance of saturated fats is thought to promote bad cholesterol. However,  a few studies  have found that little evidence for a strong link between the consumption of saturated fat and cardiovascular disease. Note: It is technically more accurate to call saturated and unsaturated fats types of  fatty acids , as it is specifically the  fatty acid  found in a fat that is either saturated or unsaturated.
