    Everton striker Wayne Rooney has been charged with drink-driving, Cheshire Police have said.
    Rooney was arrested shortly after 02:00 BST after officers stopped a black VW Beetle on Altrincham Road, Wilmslow.
    Cheshire Police said Rooney, 31, had been charged with driving whilst over the prescribed limit.
    The ex-England captain has been released on bail and is due to appear at Stockport Magistrates' Court later this month.
    Rooney, who retired from the national team last month, is England's all-time record goal scorer.
    He rejoined his boyhood club Everton this summer, 13 years after leaving the Merseyside team for Manchester United.
    Rooney's court hearing is set for 18 September - the day after Everton take on Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Polina Ivanova and Max Seddon in Moscow Vladimir Putin said the US and Russia will hold dealings about the Kremlin's complaints against Nato and western apprehensions Moscow will attack Ukraine in Geneva toward the beginning of January.

(Photo by Tim Mosenfelder/Getty Images) The Weeknd silently graced streaming sites with his latest album  My Dear Melancholy.

    Drinking Water Crisis in Rural Towns

    Drinking water is essential for life, but many rural towns in the U.S. are struggling to provide safe and reliable water to their residents. For decades, these towns have neglected their drinking water systems, resulting in aging infrastructure, water quality violations, and financial challenges. In this blog post, we will explore some of the causes and consequences of this crisis, and what can be done to address it. Causes of the Crisis One of the main causes of the crisis is the shrinking population of many rural towns. As people move to urban areas or other states, the tax base and the customer base of the water systems decline. This means less revenue to cover the costs of operation, maintenance, and improvement of the water systems. According to a report by the American Bar Association³, in 2015, 9 percent of all water systems had a documented violation of water quality standards, exposing 21 million people to unhealthy drinking water. These violations were more likely to occur in...
