It said hackers installed a file and then published a fake news item attributed to Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, just after midnight May 24.

All days are long for Danish actress Trine Dyrholm, now working hard to play a Danish woman for director and screenwriter Benedikt Erlingsson. The only time to chat was in the evening and Dyrholm and I met at a hotel in the city center after a long day of work on set. Dyrholm is well known in her home country and beyond, as she has starred in numerous films and TV shows since 1990 when she was only eighteen years old.

Dyrholm had only been to Iceland once before, three years ago at RIFF, Reykjavik International Film Festival. Then she only stopped for four days, but now she has lived here for three months.

Pope Francis on Sunday announced the creation of 21 new cardinals to represent the Catholic faith's worldwide reach, who will be nominated at a council held on December 8. Five of the new cardinals come from the Argentine pontiff's native Latin America while countries including Indonesia, Japan, Serbia, the Philippines and India will also be represented, according to a list published by the Vatican. «I am pleased to announce to you that on December 8 I will hold a consistory for the nomination of new cardinals,» the pope declared as he delivered his Angelus prayer on St Peter's Square. «Their provenance expresses the universality of the Church and manifests the indissoluble bond between the seat of St Peter and the wider Churches of the world,» the 87-year-old added. Italy will nonetheless take the lion's share with four new cardinals, although only three will be able to vote in elections for Francis's successor as the fourth has already passed the age limit for papal ballot eligibility. At 44 years of age, Mykola Bychok, the Ukrainian current archbishop of Melbourne in Australia, is the youngest to be tapped for the high clerical mantle. © Agence France-Presse
