A new bike lock name SkunkLock fights thieves by making them sick.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The SkunkLock looks just like the regular metal U-shaped devices used by cyclists around the world -- but the white stripes painted on it reveal that it conceals a secret weapon.

Inside is a noxious chemical brew that temporarily disables thieves, causing them to vomit, and making it hard to see or breathe -- all the while raising public awareness of the theft, thanks to the cloud of chemicals.

US entrepreneur Daniel Idzkowski and Swiss-born engineer Yves Perrenoud are behind the project. They appealed for a crowdfunding investment of $20,000 to turn the lock from an ambitious -- if smelly -- idea into a viable commercial product.

The SkunkLock was born after Idzjowski's close friend had his bike stolen in spite of its strong lock. With only 2.4% of bikes stolen ever being recovered, the team wanted to create a better defense against thieves -- one that fought back.

"Originally, we considered some sort of explosive lock but we quickly realized that would never be safe. So, we turned to chemical compounds that seem like the only real way to disable the thieves without causing anyone permanent harm," Idzjowski told CNN.

"The formula that we've developed is detectable through even some of the most robust gas masks. Unfortunately, we learned this the hard way."

The secret formula

The lock's creators say they can't reveal too much about the chemicals involved in what they've called Formula D_1, to stop thieves finding ways to get around it. But they insist -- having tested it on themselves -- that it is completely safe and legal.

"It's essentially made out of fatty acids that you can find in every day products, such as rancid butter or parmesan cheese,"Idzjowski explained when interviewed by CNN.

When asked if he feared bicycle users would start painting stripes on their locks to clone his product, he told CNN he would be flattered.

"It would mean Skunklock is a success and people know thieves are scared of it. I would understand if college students tried to copy it to avoid spending money."

If their bid for funding is successful, its inventors say the Skunklock will available to buy from summer 2017.

"I'm soaked. The water is up to your neck coming out of the house. The house is destroyed," she told CNN affiliate WGHP, clutching the dog she managed to save.

"I don't know where my horses are. I have another dog stranded in the house."

Gaddy had been trapped in her home in Lumberton, North Carolina, since Saturday. For three days she prayed someone would find her.

"Helicopters were flying around my house. They didn't fly over me, and I had all kinds of signals," she said. "I put notes all over the house. I had sheets hanging out."

She lived in horror as alligators and snakes infested the water outside her house.

"I was hoping the alligators wouldn't come into the door," she said. "You can literally sit on the porch and look at the alligators in the water with the snakes."

Gaddy was finally rescued when her son drove from Texas and arrived on Tuesday.

"My son and my nephew saved me -- walking through the water, climbing through trees, because there were trees down ... it's a mess."

Gaddy has lived in her house for 27 years. Now, her fond memories are replaced with heart-wrenching trauma.

"It was the worst thing," she sobbed. "I don't wish that on anybody. I don't think I'll ever go back to that house."

A Liberty man found out Saturday night that wearing a clown mask in public and scaring people might not get you arrested, but an outstanding warrant will.

Police received reports of a suspicious man wearing a clown mask about 8:40 p.m. Saturday near the Price Chopper at 896 S. Missouri 291 in Liberty.

According to a news release from police:

Callers to 911 reported a clown was driving a gray Ford Fusion in the store's parking lot, sometimes exiting his car and scaring people.

When police arrived, they stopped the man, who immediately removed the mask.

The man told police he had just purchased the white rubber clown mask with a red nose at a nearby Halloween store and was in the area waiting to meet with his father.

The man denied he was trying to scare anyone.

But before police had stopped him, the man allegedly entered Price Chopper wearing the clown mask until he was asked to remove it by management.

Several teenage girls and a woman in the parking lot also told police they were frightened by the man's appearance and behavior.
Creepy clown sightings have become a "national prank," but few law enforcement agencies are laughing.
Police said no charges were going to be filed based of the man's behavior while wearing the clown mask.

However, police arrested the man, identified as Gabriel Harding, 22, of Liberty, on an outstanding Kansas City warrant for stealing. He was turned over to the custody of Kansas City police.

Samsung kills off Note 7

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Samsung has permanently halted production and sales of its Galaxy Note 7 smartphone after failing to correct a problem that was causing the devices to burst into flames.

The loss of one of its flagship smartphones is a major embarrassment for Samsung , which was forced to recall 2.5 million Note 7s shortly after the device went on sale in August.

The South Korean firm attempted to fix the problem by switching battery suppliers and updating the smartphone's software. Company executives issued a slew of apologies.

But when replacement phones were issued, a number of customers reported that those devices also caught fire, including one aboard a passenger jet.

Samsung on Monday advised all customers to stop using the phones, sending its shares tumbling by 8% in Seoul. The world's biggest smartphone maker said Tuesday it was killing off the phone entirely.

Related: The Galaxy Note 7 is a $10 billion problem for Samsung

The Note 7 was a premium device that sold for at least $850 in the United States. It received strong reviews from critics, who heralded it as sleek and powerful. But customer excitement soon evaporated as safety concerns grew.

Samsung was panned for its response to the crisis -- many customers were confused over whether their phone was safe, whether it should be returned and whether the electronics giant was offering a replacement.

Samsung told customers in South Korea on Tuesday that they will be able to exchange their Note 7 for another smartphone. The exchange program will begin on Thursday and run through the end of the year.

It was not immediately clear what customers in other markets could expect in terms of a replacement or compensation.

Giving up on the Note 7 will be costly. Analysts at Nomura estimate the total hit could reach $9.5 billion in lost sales and wipe out $5.1 billion of profit.

But Samsung, which has a market value of about $194 billion and annual sales of $179 billion, should be big and profitable enough to weather the loss of one model.

Trumps target Clinton health in new ad.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The ad, which is titled " Dangerous," uses footage of Clinton's fainting episode at a 9/11 anniversary event last month, along with a brief clip of the former secretary of state coughing and a photo of her being assisted up the stairs, to cast doubt on her fitness for office.

"Hillary Clinton doesn't have the fortitude, strength or stamina to lead in our world," the narrator says in the ad, as foreboding music plays in the background.

CNN has reached out to the Clinton campaign for comment and not yet received a response.

The Trump campaign said the ad will "air nationally and will be heavily rotated into battleground states." The campaign has reserved $34.7 million in advertisements between Tuesday and Election Day, according to the ad tracking firm Kantar Media/CMAG.

Questions surrounding Clinton's fitness, though widely debunked, reached a fever pitch within conservative media late this summer, with pro-Trump forces like the Drudge Report and Sean Hannity routinely indulging conspiracy theories that the Democratic nominee is secretly in grave health.

The Trump campaign also gave legitimacy to these theories. In August, Trump spokeswoman Katrina Pierson asserted that Clinton has dysphasia, a brain disorder that affects speech.

The Clinton campaign has condemned those who are pushing the theories, and the candidate's physician has said she is healthy and has not developed any new conditions this year.

The fainting episode last month was the result of pneumonia, for which Clinton had been diagnosed only days earlier.

Trump has repeatedly said that Clinton "doesn't have the stamina" to be president, a charge he repeated at the first presidential debate last month.

But at the end of the second debate on Sunday, Trump offered uncharacteristic praise of his opponent's toughness.

"I will say this about Hillary: She doesn't quit. She doesn't give up. I respect that," Trump said. "I tell it like it is. She's a fighter. I disagree with much of what she's fighting for. I do disagree with her judgment in many cases. But she does fight hard, and she doesn't quit, and she doesn't give up. And I consider that to be a very good trait."

Barack Obama: America will take the giant leap to Mars

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
I still have the same sense of wonder about our space program that I did as a child. It represents an essential part of our character -- curiosity and exploration, innovation and ingenuity, pushing the boundaries of what's possible and doing it before anybody else. The space race we won not only contributed immeasurably important technological and medical advances, but it also inspired a new generation of scientists and engineers with the right stuff to keep America on the cutting edge.

That's one of the reasons why, in my first address as President to the American people, I vowed to return science to its rightful place. In our first few months, my administration made the largest single investment in basic research in our history, and I went to the Kennedy Space Center to call for reimagining and reinvigorating our space program to explore more of our solar system and look deeper into the universe than ever.

In the years since, we've revitalized technology innovation at NASA, extended the life of the International Space Station, and helped American companies create private-sector jobs by capitalizing on the untapped potential of the space industry.

Last year alone, NASA discovered flowing water on Mars and evidence of ice on one of Jupiter's moons, and we mapped Pluto -- more than 3 billion miles away -- in high-resolution. Our space telescopes revealed additional Earth-like planets orbiting distant stars, and we're pursuing new missions to interact with asteroids, which will help us learn how to protect the Earth from the threat of colliding with one while also teaching us about the origins of life on Earth. We've flown by every planet in the solar system -- something no other nation can say. And we continue to drive down the cost of space exploration for taxpayers.

This week, we'll convene some of America's leading scientists, engineers, innovators and students in Pittsburgh to dream up ways to build on our progress and find the next frontiers. Just five years ago, US companies were shut out of the global commercial launch market. Today, thanks to groundwork laid by the men and women of NASA, they own more than a third of it. More than 1,000 companies across nearly all 50 states are working on private space initiatives.

We have set a clear goal vital to the next chapter of America's story in space: sending humans to Mars by the 2030s and returning them safely to Earth, with the ultimate ambition to one day remain there for an extended time. Getting to Mars will require continued cooperation between government and private innovators, and we're already well on our way. Within the next two years, private companies will for the first time send astronauts to the International Space Station.

The next step is to reach beyond the bounds of Earth's orbit. I'm excited to announce that we are working with our commercial partners to build new habitats that can sustain and transport astronauts on long-duration missions in deep space. These missions will teach us how humans can live far from Earth -- something we'll need for the long journey to Mars.

The reporter who covered the moon landing for The New York Times, John Noble Wilford, later wrote that Mars tugs at our imagination "with a force mightier than gravity." Getting there will take a giant leap. But the first, small steps happen when our students -- the Mars generation -- walk into their classrooms each day. Scientific discovery doesn't happen with the flip of a switch; it takes years of testing, patience and a national commitment to education.

President Eisenhower knew this: In 1958, he devoted great resources to science and math education around the same time he created NASA. And it's why I'm proud that we've passed important milestones in STEM education. For the first time, more than 100,000 engineers are graduating from American schools every year, and we're on track to accomplish my goal of training 100,000 excellent new STEM teachers in a decade.

When our Apollo astronauts looked back from space, they realized that while their mission was to explore the moon, they had "in fact discovered the Earth." If we make our leadership in space even stronger in this century than it was in the last, we won't just benefit from related advances in energy, medicine, agriculture and artificial intelligence, we'll benefit from a better understanding of our environment and ourselves.

Someday, I hope to hoist my own grandchildren onto my shoulders. We'll still look to the stars in wonder, as humans have since the beginning of time. But instead of eagerly awaiting the return of our intrepid explorers, we'll know that because of the choices we make now, they've gone to space not just to visit, but to stay -- and in doing so, to make our lives better here on Earth.

Donald Trump appeared on the campaign trail Monday for the first time after the most tumultuous weekend of his presidential bid -- and a particularly nasty debate on Sunday.Trump, however, showed no signs of backing down.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Trump, however, showed no signs of backing down. Here's a look at some of his most notable comments of the day.

'More inappropriate things'

At his campaign event in Ambridge, Pennsylvania, Trump warned that if more embarrassing footage of the GOP nominee was released -- a reference to the fallout over the 2005 leaked audio in which he could be heard making crude comments about women -- he would retaliate.

"If they want to release more tapes saying inappropriate things, we'll continue to talk about Bill and Hillary Clinton doing inappropriate things -- there are so many of them, folks," Trump said.

'He's a good guy, Big Ben'

Trump started his Ambridge rally -- his first time addressing his supporters in person since the 2005 audio surfaced -- with praise for Pittsburgh Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who has been accused of sexual assault on two separate occasions.

"And we love Big Ben, Big Ben's a friend of mine," Trump said. "We play golf together. He once played a shot that went dead right into a tree ... he is a strong guy, and he's a good guy, Big Ben."

'I consider myself in a certain way to be a blue-collar worker'

Toward the end of Trump's speech in Ambridge, he said that wasn't proud of everything he's done in his life but was proud of his political movement and the way he's treated blue-collar workers. Trump -- who grew up in a Queens, New York, estate, has said he began his business career with a "small" $1 million loan from his developer father -- on Monday even described himself to be blue-collar "in a certain way."

"I'm not proud of everything that I've done in life. I mean, who among us is? Is anybody totally proud of every single element? Some we are," he said. "But let me tell you what I'm very proud of. I'm proud that I've always treated the blue-collar worker -- and I consider myself in a certain way to be a blue-collar worker -- that make this country run with tremendous respect."

'We're going to get a special prosecutor to figure this deal out'

Trump made waves at the second presidential debate when he said that if he becomes president, he'd seek to imprison Clinton over her email controversy -- a stunning departure from the typical decorum of American politics.

He reiterated his remarkable threat during his second campaign rally of the day, in Wilkes-Barre.

"We're going to get a special prosecutor to figure this deal out ... I have never been so ashamed of this country as what's gone on with Hillary Clinton. I've never seen anything like it," he said. "You've never seen anything like it. Thirty-three thousand emails. She deletes them."

Trump praises Pence after rocky weekend

After Trump's vulgar comments about women leaked, his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, issued a stern statement denouncing Trump's remarks and canceled plans to appear on Trump's behalf in Wisconsin on Saturday.

Then, at Sunday's debate, Trump disputed Pence over the GOP ticket's policy on Syria.

In Wilkes-Barre, Trump addressed his relationship with Pence, saying that the Indiana governor contacted him before he put out his statement on the 2005 audio, and Trump called him a "terrific person."

"Totally loyal guy, he called me up, 'Mind if I put out a statement?' Absolutely. So loyal. Such a terrific person," Trump said about his running mate. "One of our really good choices. Do you agree with it? Done a great job in Indiana."

We've flown by every planet in the solar system -- something no other nation can say. And we continue to drive down the cost of space exploration for taxpayers.

This week, we'll convene some of America's leading scientists, engineers, innovators and students in Pittsburgh to dream up ways to build on our progress and find the next frontiers. Just five years ago, US companies were shut out of the global commercial launch market. Today, thanks to groundwork laid by the men and women of NASA, they own more than a third of it. More than 1,000 companies across nearly all 50 states are working on private space initiatives.

We have set a clear goal vital to the next chapter of America's story in space: sending humans to Mars by the 2030s and returning them safely to Earth, with the ultimate ambition to one day remain there for an extended time. Getting to Mars will require continued cooperation between government and private innovators, and we're already well on our way. Within the next two years, private companies will for the first time send astronauts to the International Space Station.

The next step is to reach beyond the bounds of Earth's orbit. I'm excited to announce that we are working with our commercial partners to build new habitats that can sustain and transport astronauts on long-duration missions in deep space. These missions will teach us how humans can live far from Earth -- something we'll need for the long journey to Mars.

The reporter who covered the moon landing for The New York Times, John Noble Wilford, later wrote that Mars tugs at our imagination "with a force mightier than gravity." Getting there will take a giant leap. But the first, small steps happen when our students -- the Mars generation -- walk into their classrooms each day. Scientific discovery doesn't happen with the flip of a switch; it takes years of testing, patience and a national commitment to education.

President Eisenhower knew this: In 1958, he devoted great resources to science and math education around the same time he created NASA. And it's why I'm proud that we've passed important milestones in STEM education. For the first time, more than 100,000 engineers are graduating from American schools every year, and we're on track to accomplish my goal of training 100,000 excellent new STEM teachers in a decade.

When our Apollo astronauts looked back from space, they realized that while their mission was to explore the moon, they had "in fact discovered the Earth." If we make our leadership in space even stronger in this century than it was in the last, we won't just benefit from related advances in energy, medicine, agriculture and artificial intelligence, we'll benefit from a better understanding of our environment and ourselves.

Someday, I hope to hoist my own grandchildren onto my shoulders. We'll still look to the stars in wonder, as humans have since the beginning of time. But instead of eagerly awaiting the return of our intrepid explorers, we'll know that because of the choices we make now, they've gone to space not just to visit, but to stay -- and in doing so, to make our lives better here on Earth.

Barack Obama: America will take the giant leap to Mars

I still have the same sense of wonder about our space program that I did as a child. It represents an essential part of our character -- curiosity and exploration, innovation and ingenuity, pushing the boundaries of what's possible and doing it before anybody else.

Donald Trump:the shackles have been taken off

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The GOP nominee is lashing out in a stream of tweets boiling with rage and resentment, slamming House Speaker Paul Ryan for effectively cutting him loose and accusing the party leadership of dooming his campaign. It's a meltdown unprecedented by a presidential nominee this late in the year.

"It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to," Trump said in a tweet that raised the prospect of a full on civil war in the Republican Party. Such a battle would pit his loyal supporters against the rest of the GOP, including vulnerable lawmakers running for re-election that could threaten the party's hold on Congress.

Trump's outbursts come with his national polls tanking and his route to the 270 electoral votes he needs to win the White House closing fast.

Trump also called Ryan, the Wisconsin Republican, "very weak" and "ineffective" -- an attack that comes the day after after Ryan told House colleagues he'd no longer defend or campaign for the GOP presidential nominee.

"Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call where his members went wild at his disloyalty," Trump tweeted.

"Despite winning the second debate in a landslide (every poll), it is hard to do well when Paul Ryan and others give zero support," he also tweeted.

Trump also criticized GOP Arizona Sen. John McCain who rescinded his endorsement of the Republican presidential nominee over the weekend.

"The very foul mouthed Sen. John McCain begged for my support during his primary (I gave, he won), then dropped me over locker room remarks!" Trump tweeted.

Trump said Republicans who are "disloyal" are "far more difficult" than Clinton.

"Disloyal R's are far more difficult than Crooked Hillary. They come at you from all sides. They don't know how to win - I will teach them," he tweeted.

Trump's move to go rogue and incite anarchy in the party leaves Republican leaders in a tough position. His behavior risks alienating moderate and swing voters vital to maintain GOP control of the Senate. But repudiating Trump entirely would risk a backlash by the record breaking millions of voters who flocked to the Republican nominee in the primary process.

He reiterated his frustration at his first post-debate fundraiser Tuesday in San Antonio, according to two sources. He repeated what he tweeted, saying that he feels "free from the shackles" and appeared generally in a good mood. He also mentioned Ryan, saying it was unfortunate that a small part of the party was not focusing on balanced budgets/immigration.

Ryan sought a middle ground Monday when he told House Republicans on a conference call he will no longer defend or campaign for Trump, instead spending the campaign's final four weeks focusing on House and Senate races in an effort to help the GOP maintain control of Congress.

"Paul Ryan is focusing the next month on defeating Democrats, and all Republicans running for office should probably do the same," Ryan spokesperson Brendan Buck said Tuesday, a statement echoing his response on Monday.

"The speaker is going to spend the next month focused entirely on protecting our congressional majorities," Ryan's spokeswoman, AshLee Strong, said in a statement Monday.

Trump even cast the Democratic Party -- which nominated Hillary Clinton -- as a stronger organization than the GOP that nominated him.

"With the exception of cheating Bernie out of the nom the Dems have always proven to be far more loyal to each other than the Republicans!," he tweeted.

The feud follows an outpouring of high-profile Republicans slamming the real estate mogul, after the release Friday of a 2005 recording featuring Trump making lewd and sexually aggressive comments about women.

Republican elected officials and party elders lined up Saturday to denounce Trump's incendiary remarks. Some sitting members of Congress pulled their support entirely, while others blasted the remarks but continued supporting the GOP standard-bearer. Some said they wanted Trump to step aside so that his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, can lead the ticket. Pence said in a CNN interview Monday that he's sticking with Trump.

Even a top ally, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, criticized Trump for not going far enough to apologize for his lewd and sexually aggressive comments about women that emerged in a video from 2005.

"I was there when he found out about it and there's no question in my mind he's embarrassed by it," Christie told WFAN radio in New York. "But I think that he should have been much more direct and much more focused on saying, just saying 'I'm sorry' and only 'I'm sorry,' and that's what I would have done.'"

And Trump is not just targeting his own party. At a rally in Pennsylvania on Monday night, he raised the prospect that the election is being rigged to stop him becoming President, a scorched earth narrative that threatens one of the bedrock principles of American democracy -- faith in the electoral system itself.

"I hear these horror shows, and we have to make sure that this election is not stolen from us and is not taken away from us," Trump said in Pennsylvania.

Trump will have his first chance to demonstrate his shackle-free approach at an evening rally in Florida on Tuesday night, that could offer a preview of how he plans to act in the final four weeks of the election, if his campaign tips into a deeper free-fall.

a letter from 1859, written by Abraham Linclon is for sale. Going for $40,00.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Shortly after the presidential candidates name-dropped Abraham Lincoln in their Sunday night debate, historians have announced that a rare letter written by the man who would become our nation's 16th president is for sale.

The date on the letter: Nov. 3, 1859, less than 2 years before Lincoln was elected commander in chief.

He wrote to a man named Peachy Quinn Harrison, who came from a Republican family in Pleasant Plains, Illinois, and stood trial for murdering a rival from a family of Democrats. Lincoln, a lawyer at the time, had joined the defense team, and Harrison was ultimately acquitted.

In his letter, written after the trial, Lincoln urged Harrison to get involved in the political process, and to use his youth to his advantage.

"A young man, before the enemy has learned to watch him, can do more than any other. Pitch and try," he wrote.

Lincoln also urged Harrison to join the political campaign of John M. Palmer - the lead prosecutor in Harrison's case. Lincoln and Palmer were friends when they weren't sparring in court, historians said.

The Raab Collection announced the letter was for sale. Its price tag: $40,000.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump referenced Lincoln during the second presidential debate. When asked by moderator Martha Raddatz about her supposed public and private positions, Clinton responded, "President Lincoln was trying to convince some people, he used some arguments, convincing other people, he used other arguments."

Donald Trump's response: "Honest Abe never lied. That's the good thing. That's the big difference between Abraham Lincoln and you."
