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...

Liverpool will not underrate Roma, says Klopp.

Jürgen Klopp believes Barcelona’s dramatic collapse against Roma at the quarter final stages of the Champions League has alerted Liverpool to the danger that awaits in the Stadio Olimpico this night and strengthens their chances of going through.
The Catalonians, who held a 4-1 lead following victory in the Nou Camp, lost 3-0 in the second leg last month, sending them out of the competition. On Sunday, they were crowned La Liga champions and though Klopp admitted this emphasises Roma’s ability to achieve results that few expect, it only sharpens his own team’s focus ahead of the club’s most significant game in Europe for eleven years.
He did not want to detail where Barcelona went wrong. But he would talk about the message it sends.“Barcelona thought probably that it’s decided,” he said. “Everybody is telling us that it’s possible for Roma to beat us 3-0 or 4-0. Nobody celona. Not that I needed it but, we have the warning.”
As Klopp added, Roma have not conceded a goal at home in the Champions League this season. Yet Liverpool have not lost in the Champions League. Liverpool could end up losing 2-0 and go through – just like Klopp’s Borussia Dortmund team did in 2013.
When they held a 4-1 lead over Real Madrid going into a semi-final second leg. In the end, Dortmund held on and though Klopp would take that here, with Liverpool’s rapid front-three, with Roma’s slow defence as well as their need for goals, it’s hard to see how Liverpool do not score themselves.“I really, really think we deserve to be here,” Klopp insisted. “If we get the result we need then we deserve to be in the final. If not, Rome will deserve it.”
Earlier, Eusebio Di Francesco and Radja Nainggolan, the Roma midfielder, had admitted they found the going tough against Liverpool because they are unlike any opponent they have faced this season.
“It’s difficult to explain why we are the way we are.” Wijnaldum said. “We try to play the game that we want to. It doesn’t change from the Premier League to the Champions League. I think the further you go, the more belief you have every next stage.

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. However, referring to fatty acids as fats is common. Comparison chart Saturated Fats versus Unsaturated F...
