[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A courageous cyclist was stabbed to death by a crazed man at a San Francisco train stop after he stepped in to protect a mother and her kids who were being harassed.
Colden Kimber, 28, was fatally jabbed in the neck with a six-inch blade on July 26 while waiting at a Muni stop in the Ingleside neighborhood with his girlfriend.
The couple had gone on a date before making their way to the stop around 4.15pm, which was surrounded by children and families, when Sean Collins, 29, walked up.
As they waited, Kimber decided to bravely get in between Collins and a woman with her children as he shouted: 'Oh you think you are better than me' and 'You are scared of me,' court documents obtained by KGO said.
While 6'4in Kimber stood directly in front of Collins as the train approached, the knifeman 'stabbed the unsuspecting victim on the right side of his neck,' records showed.
Following the 'completely and utterly unprovoked' attack, Kimber stopped moving as blood gushed out of his neck, the court filing read.
He was rushed to San Francisco General Hospital where he died after undergoing surgery.
Shortly after the deadly incident, Collins was found covered in blood by police blocks away from the scene and taken into custody.
Surveillance footage from a nearby restaurant also captured Collins walking in the area dressed in an all black outfit.
Collins has been charged with murder and is due in court for his arraignment on August 14.
It is unclear what drove him to stab Kimber, but according to court documents, the Superior Court of California received a report regarding his mental health.
And there it is.
The results of the report remain unclear at this time.

When a dog mauls and kills a child, do we worry about the mental state of the dog before we put it down? We remove the danger permanently from civil society.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] WKRP in Cincinnati Loni Anderson died Sunday at the age of 79, her rep said.
Anderson, who played a struggling radio station´s empowered receptionist Jennifer Marlowe on the hit CBS comedy, died Sunday, just days before her 80th birthday.
Anderson, who was married to late Hollywood legend Burt Reynolds from 1988 thru 1994, died at a Los Angeles hospital following a 'prolonged' illness, said her longtime publicist, Cheryl J. Kagan.
'We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our dear wife, mother and grandmother,' Anderson´s family said in a statement.
WKRP in Cincinnati aired from 1978-1982 and was set in a flagging Ohio radio station trying to reinvent itself with rock music.
She married four times, most recently to Bob Flick in 2008.
Anderson was born August 5, 1945, in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Her father was an environmental chemist, and her mother was a model.
Her first role as an actress was a small part in the 1966 film Nevada Smith, starring Steve McQueen. Most of her career was spent on the small screen with early guest parts in the 1970s on S.W.A.T. and Police Woman.
After WKRP, Anderson starred in the short-lived comedy series Easy Street and appeared in made-for-TV movies including A Letter to Three Wives and White Hot: The Mysterious Murder of Thelma Todd. Loni went to Ramsey, our rival high school. She wasn't blond then, nor had boobies. Her claim to fame might be trying to bleed Burt Reynolds dry. Also from Ramsey was Richard Dean Anderson, who graduated 4 years later. He was one hell of a hard hockey player!
[Daily Mail, where America getw its news] Fighter jets were scrambled to President Donald Trump's New Jersey golf course on Sunday when a rogue aircraft breached the temporary flight restriction zone.
The unidentified pilot flew into the airspace above the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster at around 2.50pm and was quickly escorted out of the area by North American Aerospace Defense Command jets, the agency announced.
It had to use flares to draw the pilot's attention, but NORAD assured the public the flares 'are employed with the highest regard for the safety of the intercepted aircraft and people on the ground.'
The flares also burn out quickly and completely, so there is no danger to those on the ground.
The Sunday afternoon incursion marked the second of the day, after three other unauthorized incursions occurred the day before.
By Sunday night, NORAD announced that the total number of unauthorized flight incursions while President Trump was spending the weekend at his New Jersey club rose to seven.
Officials are now urging pilots to be more careful and to better plan out their trips as it does not appear the pilots had nefarious intentions in breaching the secure airspace.

...This is happening more and more lately - I truly don't believe that it's intentional, but I think it's to the point where the hammer needs to start landing on these people.
You break a restricted zone, you'll be escorted to a landing and your pilot's license goes away for 12 months. Do it again, and you lose the license forever and forfeit the airplane. After the second or third person to get grounded for a year, people will get the message.

[Regnum] The most powerful flare of the M2.9 level occurred on the Sun in a month and a half. This was reported on August 3 by the press service of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
According to scientists, the flare occurred in the active region 4168, which appeared in the northern hemisphere of the Sun on August 2. The maximum radiation level was recorded at 16:57 Moscow time. The press service emphasized that the geomagnetic consequences of the event are currently unknown.
On August 2, the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences reported that 15 flares were recorded on the Sun over the past 24 hours, which significantly exceeds the number of events on August 1. Scientists noted that flare activity had stabilized, the growth of sunspots had stopped, and this series of events had no impact on Earth.
On July 12, scientists recorded a rapid increase in the number and area of active centers on the Sun. The laboratory suggested that the change in solar activity is global in nature. At the same time, the increase in activity has not yet created any direct threats to Earth.
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]According to comments in the Twitter thread, the squatters are Roma (gypsies) and the farmers are soraying pig manure fertilizer.
After not receiving any help from the police, French farmers decided to take matters into their own hands to get rid of an illegal gypsy camp that had set up on their land.

Antiziganism is very close to antisemitism.
Both are despised minorities in Europe who don't intermarry with the host populations and Europeans have ugly opinions and consider both "parasites". Nazis gassed both of them.
These sorts of attacks are just going to get worse with every new day of Hamas propaganda that goes unchecked on X and other social media.
[NYPOST] Jeanine Pirro — the former Fox News firebrand ...firebrands are noted more for audio volume and the quantity of spittle generated than for any actual logic in their arguments... and onetime New York judge — was confirmed Saturday along party lines as Washington DC's top prosecutor.
The Senate voted 50-45 to approve the former Westchester County prosecutor and elected judge, who stepped in as the acting US Attorney for the District of Columbia in May.
Pirro was confirmed despite House Democrats ...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy,white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects... urging the GOP-led Senate to reject President Trump's second hand picked nominee to lead the office, warning that the former co-host of Fox's ''The Five'' would serve as a partisan tool for the White House.
''Over the past decade, Ms. Pirro has consistently demonstrated that her loyalty lies with Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and whatever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th and 47th President of the United States... the person, not with the Constitution or the rule of law,'' Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin ...hanky-headed Congressman-for-life from Maryland's 8th congressional district since 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, he served in the Maryland State Senate from 2007 to 2016. Raskin co-chairs the Congressional Freethought Caucus, which pushes (and defines) reason and science. In 2017 the newly-elected Raskin and several other members of the House objected to the certification of the 2016 presidential election because of (muh!) Russia. He was the lead impeachment manager for the second impeachment of President Donald Trump. Raskin was one of seven Democrats appointed to pack the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack by Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Before his election to Congress he was just another lefty law professor.... wrote in a letter to Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer ...Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras and microphones. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower, which is 50 years. Senate minority leader as of 2017... (D-NY), Courthouse News reported.
Pirro was tapped to serve as the capital's top prosecutor after Senate Republicans balked at the president's first choice, Ed Martin, leading Trump to yank his nomination.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A coal train derailment in West Virginia early Sunday has caused major disruptions, including the suspension of Amtrak service between Huntington and New York City.
The CSX freight train went off the tracks around 12:30 a.m. in St. Albans, a city of about 10,800 residents located 10 miles west of Charleston.
Authorities confirmed the train was made up of 220 cars, which carried approximately 100 tons of coal, and weighed 54 million pounds.
Officials have not said how many cars derailed, but the incident caused widespread disruption in the eastern part of the city, according to the St. Albans Fire Department.
The train was operated by CSX Transportation, a major freight railroad that hauls goods like coal, grain, and industrial materials across the eastern U.S.
The route where the incident occurred - known as CSX’s Kanawha Subdivision - is a key corridor for coal shipments through the region.
As a result of the derailment, Amtrak has canceled its Cardinal passenger route in both directions.
Passengers who left Chicago on August 2 are being bused from Huntington to Washington, D.C., with connections available to New York.
The westbound Cardinal that was supposed to depart from New York will now originate in Huntington.
