1 Stand against Isis
Some leading French media outlets say they will stop publishing the names and images of attackers linked to Isis (Islamic State) to prevent individuals from being inadvertently glorified. The decisions come after the truck attack on a Nice fireworks display and the killing of a French priest in a church in Normandy, events in a spate of attacks France has seen since last year. Le Monde pledged to stop publishing photographs of attackers and avoid "possible posthumous glorifying effects". The newspaper already has a ban on publishing extracts of Isis propaganda. BFM-TV said it will no longer broadcast images of attackers' faces. Radio Europe-1 said it would no longer read out "terrorists' names" to "stop them being turned into heroes".

4 Wedding tightrope
Two circus acrobats tied the knot on a tightrope during a performance in Houston. Mustafa Danguir and Anna Lebedeva got married 9m off the ground during a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey show at NRG Stadium. The groom, wearing a white tuxedo coat, arrived on a camel and climbed a side ladder to reach the tightrope. The veiled bride rode a horse. She shed her high heels and adjusted her flowing gown to also climb a ladder to the wire. The ringmaster presided as the pair met in the middle of the wire, then exchanged vows and rings. The smiling newlyweds descended and waved to the cheering crowd as they walked away arm-in-arm.
