"I don't know if I properly apologized for how that slave comment made people feel," West said during an interview with Chicago's WGCI 107.5. "I want to take this moment right now to say that I'm sorry for hurting, I'm sorry for the one-two effect of the MAGA hat into the slave comment."

West also addressed a question that left him speechless earlier this month when Jimmy Kimmel asked him if Trump cares about black people.

"I feel that he cares about the way black people feel about him, and he would like for black people to like him like they did when he was cool in the rap songs and all this," West told WGCI. "He will do the things that are necessary to make that happen because he's got an ego like all the rest of us, and he wants to be the greatest president, and he knows that he can't be the greatest president without the acceptance of the black community."

"So," West added, "it's something he's gonna work towards, but we're gonna have to speak to him."

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
KSI and Logan Paul fought to a MAJORITY DRAW in their Manchester fight on Saturday night.

Two judges scored it 57-57 while the third had it 58-57 to KSI.

KSI, real name Olajide William Olatunji, made clear in the build up that he fancied going professional in the aftermath of his bout with the controversial American.

Certainly, this white collar bout had a big-fight feel, especially when Michael Buffer announced the respective participants after a seven-fight undercard.

But KSI, 25, found the 23-year-old's height and reach advantage difficult to overcome in the early rounds.

Ohio-born Paul got the better of the first couple, but gradually KSI worked his way back in.

And although both failed to land with a number of their bigger shots, KSI made Paul bleed in the fifth with a fine shot to the face.

However, in a marginal contest, neither was able to take home the win.

The pair's rivalry began in February when KSI called out Logan Paul following his victory over Joe Weller in London.

KSI's post-fight rallying cry also included call outs to Paul's younger brother Jake and former England and Manchester United captain Rio Ferdinand.

Jake instead fought KSI's younger sibling Deji on the Manchester undercard, winning in the fifth round via TKO, while Ferdinand failed in his bid to earn a professional boxing license.

Paul eventually accepted the challenge via a YouTube video and the pair began training in earnest, trading insults and barbs.

KSI spent time training at Floyd Mayweather's gym in Las Vegas and also joined forces with former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping.

Tempers boiled over at a press conference in July, and again at Friday's weigh-in, before KSI bet on Paul's girlfriend, Chloe Bennett, throwing in the towel.

"I want to knock Logan out in round four," said KSI before the bout.

It didn't quite work out that way.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is reporting an outbreak of Trichodesmium, sometimes called a brown tide, in waters offshore of Manatee County.

It is a separate species but similar to the well-documented Karenia brevis, a photosynthetic organism responsible for the persistent red tide hitting Manatee and other nearby counties along 130 miles of coastline. Concerns are now being raised that if the two blooms merge, it could essentially deepen an ongoing red tide.

Kathleen Rein, a chemist at Florida International University, said a Trichodesmium bloom amid the ongoing red tide crisis could be "very bad news."

While unable to address the size, location or movement as of Thursday, Rein said, "I can tell you that Trichodesmium is a cyanobacteria. It is photosynthetic, like Karenia. Its growth is believed to be simulated by iron in Saharan dust. It fixes nitrogen, then the fixed nitrogen can be used by Karenia brevis to help it grow. Let's hope the two blooms don't find each other."

So far, FWC is only reporting that the brown tide is being detected in offshore waters, though it can appear anywhere this time of year. It is virtually an annual event believed to be fed by African dust blowing across the Atlantic. Blooms can get so big that they can be seen from space, and while some can produce toxins, they are typically not harmful to marine life on their own - unless the brown tide merges with the red tide and essentially becomes the red tide's food source.

Mote Marine scientist Vincent Lovko said Trichodesmium is unique in that it forms well offshore and instead of getting nutrients from the water, pulls nitrogen from the air. While some strains can be toxic, Lovko said there has never been a reported toxic brown bloom in the Gulf of Mexico.

"It's a completely different organism from the marine dinoflagellate, Karenia brevis, which causes our Florida red tide," Lovko said.

So if the two blooms do merge?

"As the Trichodesmium bloom dies and degrades, Karenia can potentially use the nutrients that are released," Lovko said, while noting it's not necessarily a merge.

Lovko said Trichodesmium is more present on the surface than K. brevis, which lingers about a meter under the water. The problem is when the surface bloom starts to die and sinks into the red tide, it can provide a food source to the red tide, potentially extending its lifespan.

According to the FWC, documented Trichodesmium blooms date back as far as the 1700s when Captain James Cook of the British Royal Navy wrote about them. Sailors call the blooms "sea sawdust" because small blooms look like sawdust floating on top of the water. Larger blooms can look like oil slicks and change colors during its lifespan from a healthy brown to a dying pink or white.

NASA has issued an alert that a "potentially hazardous asteroid" is on a "close approach" toward Earth. However, it's nothing to be alarmed at, as the asteroid is expected to zoom past the planet approximately 3 million miles away.

The enormous space rock, known as asteroid 2016 NF23 and estimated to be between 230 and 525 feet in diameter, will zip past Earth on Aug. 29 at a velocity of 9.04 kilometers per second, or approximately 20,000 miles per hour, the government space agency said on its Earth Close Approaches page.

It is the third largest near-Earth object (NEO) on the page, behind two other asteroids which will fly past Earth in the early part of September: 2001 RQ17 and 2015 FP118.
ABOUT 17,000 BIG NEAR-EARTH OBJECTS REMAIN UNDETECTED: HERE'S HOW NASA COULD SPOT THEM
At 230 feet, it would be slightly smaller than a Boeing 747. At the high-end of the estimate, 525 feet, it would be taller than the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is approximately 455 feet high.

Near-Earth objects regularly fly by the planet, though "potentially hazardous objects" are ones that are less than 0.05 au (astronomical units) away from the planet, or approximately 5 million miles.

Any asteroid that comes within 4.6 million miles of Earth with a diameter greater than 500 feet is termed "potentially hazardous," according to NASA.

Asteroid 2016 NF23 also has an absolute magnitude of 22.9, above the 22.0 threshold to be classified as a potentially hazardous object.

In April, an asteroid the size of a football field - 2018 GE3 - came just 119,500 miles away from Earth's atmosphere, about half the distance between Earth and the Moon.

In June, NASA laid out an updated plan to protect Earth and predict the chances for a threat from a near-Earth object (NEO), outlining five goals, including enhanced detection and improved modeling.

The 20-page plan details steps the U.S. should take to be better prepared for objects such as asteroids and comets that come within 30 million miles of the planet.

In addition to enhancing NEO detection, tracking and characterizing capabilities and improving modeling prediction, the plan also aims to develop technologies for deflecting NEOs, increasing international cooperation and establishing new NEO impact emergency procedures and action protocols.
MINING FOR ASTEROIDS WILL BE THE NEXT GOLD RUSH
NASA notes there are over 18,300 recorded NEOs and just over 8,000 of them are over 100 meters or larger.

In 2016, NASA opened a new office to track asteroids and comets that come too close to Earth, known as the Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO). The PDCO formalizes the agency's existing program for detecting and tracking NEOs, which NASA has been studying since the 1970s.
