Trump says he will be arrested in Georgia election case -
Donald Trump has said he plans to turn himself in on Thursday to a court in the state of Georgia to face charges of election interference.

The agreement says Mr Trump can remain free pending trial so long as he does not attempt to threaten or intimidate witnesses.
Mr Trump denies 13 charges, including racketeering and false statements.
He and the 18 others accused in this case had previously been given until noon on Friday to appear at Fulton County Jail for processing.

Can MRI scans screen men for prostate cancer? - BBC News
#MRI #Cancer #ProstateCancer
A 10-minute MRI scan could be used to screen men for prostate cancer, according to a new study.
The scans proved far more accurate at diagnosing cancer than blood tests, which look for high levels of a protein called PSA.
MRI picked up some serious cancers that would have been missed by PSA alone.
At present there is no national screening programme in the UK because PSA is considered too unreliable, although men over 50 can request a PSA test.
The authors of this new study suggest that prostate MRI could be used for screening, though they say a larger study would be needed to assess this.

More civilians killed in Haiti this year than Ukraine amid extreme violence - BBC Newsnight
The United Nations has described Haiti as being in a state of extreme violence and brutality.
In a recent briefing, it said almost 2,500 people had been killed between January and August of this year alone. Ongoing gang violence is partly being put down to political and economic instability.
Two years ago the country's president was shot dead at his home - which led to much of the country's territory falling out of government control.
Newsnight’s International Correspondent Emir Nader has this report.
