© Provided by Independent Digital News & Media Limited HBO has dropped another one minute cliffhanger for the upcoming season of Game of Thrones, and it looks like Winterfell got hit pretty bad. Really bad. The new clip comes after the network released two brand new teaser trailers for the latest series yesterday, sending fans into a frenzy. Entitled "Aftermath", the one minute teaser does not actually show any footage from the upcoming season itself, but teases the events post the upcoming big battle we all know is about to go down in Winterfell. Panning snowy landscapes and frozen tundras, the scene shows Stark banner flaps fluttering in the wind, as well as various objects belonging to some of our favourite GoT characters: Sansa's feather, Bran's smashed wheelchair, Daenery's chain, Tyrion's hand of the Queen pin and, Arya's trusty sword 'Needle' and Jaime's Golden hand.

They say anything is possible when you have a good friend to support you through tough times.  A disabled boy in China has been able to go to class for six years without a problem thanks to his classmate and best friend who piggybacks him every day. Xu Bingyang, 12, carries Zhang Ze to school come rain or shine.

'I weigh more than 40kg (88 pounds) and Zhang Ze only weighs about 25kg (55 pounds), so it's okay for me to carry him,' Xu said.  On the...

It was only 200 days ago, on his 601st day in office, that President Trump exceeded 5,000 false or misleading claims. Now, on his 801st day, the count stands at 9,451, according to The Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement the president utters. That’s a pace of 22 fishy claims a day over the past 200 days, a steep climb from the average of nearly 5.9 false or misleading claims a day in Trump’s first year in office. Of course, not every day yields 22 claims. The president’s tally expands when he’s giving a speech, usually at a campaign rally. At such events, he runs through many of his favorite lines, such as that he passed the biggest tax cut in history, that his U.S.-Mexico border wall is already being built and that the U.S. economy today is the best in history. All three of those claims are on The Fact Checker’s list of Bottomless Pinocchios. At a rally in Grand Rapids, Mich., on March 28, for instance, Trump made 64 claims tha...
