         <description><![CDATA[<div>A popular singer has been arrested for "dabbing" during a concert in south-west Saudi Arabia.<br><br>Abdallah Al Shahani, a TV host, actor, and Saudi national, was performing the dance move, which involves a person tucking their head into the crook of their arm, at a music festival in the city of Taif at the weekend.<br><br>It is thought that dabbing originated in the hip-hop scene in Atlanta, Georgia, US, around two years ago, but gained a global following when celebrities, athletes and politicians including Hillary Clinton and Paul Ryan began performing the move.&nbsp;<br><br>The Saudi Interior Ministry's National Commission for Combating Drugs recently banned the move because they consider it to refer to marijuana use.&nbsp;<br><br>A poster published by the ministry depicting dabbing warns "people about the dangers of this [move] on the youth and society, and is warning against imitating it".<br>Dabbing is banned in the conservative country where authorities consider it a reference to narcotics culture.<br><br>A video of Mr Al Shahani's dab became popular on social media and thousands have tweeted about the incident.<br>It is not clear whether Mr Al Shahani planned to dab or whether he got carried away in the moment as he performed.<br><br>The singer apologised on Twitter on Tuesday writing, "I apologise to our respected government and to my audience for unintentionally and spontaneously making the dance move at Taif festival. Please accept my apology."&nbsp;<br>Mr Al Shahani's move has divided social media.
<br>Commenting on the audible voices of women in a video of Mr Al Shahani's concert, journalist Ayed Al Ayed tweeted: "Young woman, your screaming continues and I find it very disturbing. Whoever breaks the law gets arrested. Thank you to the security forces."
<br>"This move has an obvious negative influence on people. No matter what his explanation is, it's unacceptable," tweeted @brakalhmede.<br>Another user suggested that Mr Al Shahani's behaviour was provocative.
<br>"Even though the anti-drug authority banned this move and warned people not to perform it, this contestant is promoting it at a public festival!!! Does he think he's challenging authorities with these actions?" commented @honest_very.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>BiWhat?President Donald Trump has fumed and fired a health chief with a penchant for taxpayer-funded private jets, bragged about a recovery process in Puerto Rico that bears little resemblance to reality on the ground, lashed the mayor of the island's capital city for questioning the federal response, and viewed a golf tournament from the "commissioner's suite" at a country club that costs $500,000 to join.<br>When? Oct 1 2017<br>Where?at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club<br>How?Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help,"<br>Trump tweeted in part. "They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort."<br>WhyThe move, <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/25/politics/trump-nfl-tweets/index.html">Trump seemed to believe</a>, would appeal to the base of white rural voters who helped fuel his unlikely rise from reality television star to United States President. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/29/politics/national-anthem-nfl-cnn-poll/index.html">Polling this week seemed to bear that out</a>: almost 9 in 10 Republicans surveyed by CNN said kneeling during the national anthem is the wrong thing to do. But among that majority, 32% disagreed with Trump's decision to criticize the players.</div>]]></description>
