A van drove into a crowd of pedestrians on London Bridge, killing at least one person. At least one attacker then left the van and proceeded to Borough Market, a popular spot for pubs and restaurants on the southern side of the Thames, where he attacked civilians. Armed police are said to have killed two or three attackers, but there were conflicting media reports at dispatch time as to whether officials believed that all the attackers were accounted for. The attacks took place shortly before 10pm London time and <strong>\u201ccome days ahead of a June 8 election<\/strong> and less than two weeks after a suicide bomber killed 22 people at a pop concert in Manchester,\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-britain-security-idUSKBN18U0VV\">Reuters noted<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>US President Donald Trump said the attack underscored the need for his travel ban <\/strong>on individuals from majority-Muslim countries, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-britain-security-trump-idUSKBN18U0YC?il=0\">newswire said<\/a>.

The House of Representatives had passed the bill \u2014 which offers a range of tax and non-tax incentives meant to encourage investment \u2014 early in May, after months of deliberation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A quick refresher on the Investment Act:<\/strong> In addition to bringing back private sector-run free zones, the act offers investors tax breaks as high as 50% for doing business in specific under-developed areas and also promises attractive rebates on the cost of land acquisition if factories begin production within two years of breaking ground. Companies benefitting from the tax breaks have to be established within three years of the executive regulations to the law being issued, and <strong>the incentives will be mainly geared towards strategic industries, including auto and pharma<\/strong>, Trade and Industry Minister Tarek Kabil told <a href=\"http:\/\/www.almalnews.com\/Story\/335969\/15\/%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A8%D9%8A%D9%84--%D9%83%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%AA%D8%B4%D8%A7%D8%B1%D9%83-%D8%A8%D8%A5%D8%B9%D8%AF%D8%A7%D8%AF-%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%A6%D8%AD%D8%A9-%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%88%D9%86-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AB%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%B1\">the press on Thursday<\/a>.

While one would think that improvements in technology was the most crucial part of the process, in reality it all comes down to meticulous homework, artist Jordan Lloyd explains to Vox (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Vox\/videos\/703968476457424\/?autoplay_reason=gatekeeper&video_container_type=0&video_creator_product_type=2&app_id=2392950137&live_video_guests=0\">watch<\/a>, runtime: 6:59). Colorization artists have to do an immense amount of research in order to determine the historically correct colors. To do this, they talk to specialists, reference museums, and cross-reference notes made at the time of the photograph. You can see just the difference between the old methods of coloring and the new in the image above.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/worth-watching\/\">worth watching<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"646023\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"646023\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">9<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Diplomacy + Foreign Trade<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/06\/04\/iraqi-business-owners-want-to-increase-investments-in-egypt\/\">\r\n                            Iraqi business owners want to increase investments in Egypt                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/06\/04\/iraqi-business-owners-want-to-increase-investments-in-egypt\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Mal<\/a>. There are rumors printed by the newspaper which suggest that the MNOs and state entities have set a deadline of 30 June to receive their full frequencies. There was no word yet whether the CIT Ministry had successfully reached an agreement with security entities to <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/05\/23\/cit-ministry-in-talks-to-free-up-additional-4g-frequencies\/\">free up additional frequencies<\/a>. Minister Yasser El Kady had said that MNOs will receive their frequencies upon all of them signing domestic roaming agreements with Telecom Egypt (TE). Delays in reaching an agreement with all three MNOs was reportedly the reason behind why 4G has not been successfully launched yet, sources tell <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youm7.com\/story\/2017\/6\/2\/%D9%85%D8%B5%D8%AF%D8%B1-%D8%B9%D8%AF%D9%85-%D8%AC%D8%A7%D9%87%D8%B2%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B5%D8%B1%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%84%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA%D8%B5%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%B3%D8%A8%D8%A8-%D8%AA%D8%A3%D8%AE%D8%B1-%D8%A5%D8%B7%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%82-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC%D9%8A%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B9\/3264649\">Youm7<\/a>.
