Judge to weigh sentence for South Carolina ex-policeman who killed black man Posted: 04 Dec 2017 10:59 AM PST U.S. prosecutors said on Monday that a white former South Carolina policeman caught on video shooting an unarmed black man in the back committed murder, while defense lawyers argued their client did not deserve to go to prison for life for his crime. Michael Slager, 36, pleaded guilty in May to a federal civil rights charge of using excessive force when he killed 50-year-old Walter Scott in 2015. Slager, then a North Charleston police officer, fired eight shots at Scott's back after he fled a traffic stop, hitting him five times. |
US Patriot missiles may have failed in Saudi Arabia: report Posted: 04 Dec 2017 11:01 AM PST When Shiite rebels blasted a ballistic missile from Yemen toward the Saudi capital last month, Riyadh officials said they had intercepted and destroyed the incoming rocket. The November 4 attack was the first missile Shiite rebels had aimed at the heart of the Saudi capital, underscoring the growing threat posed by the raging conflict in Yemen. The Times and researchers, mainly from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies in Monterey, California, said the bits of missile Saudi officials collected and put on display were all from the back end of the rocket, believed to be a Scud variant, raising the question that the Patriot system may not have worked. |

South Korea, U.S. kick off large-scale air exercise amid North Korean warnings Posted: 03 Dec 2017 11:49 PM PST South Korea and the United States launched large-scale joint aerial drills on Monday, officials said, a week after North Korea said it had tested its most advanced missile as part of a weapons programme that has raised global tensions. F-35 fighters will also join the drill, which will also include the largest number of 5th generation fighters to take part, according to a South Korea-based U.S. Air Force spokesman. South Korean media reports said B-1B Lancer bombers could join the exercise this week. |
Brazilian Mayor who ran town by WhatsApp is jailed for stealing millions from poorest citizens Posted: 03 Dec 2017 04:49 PM PST A Brazilian mayor who governed her town via WhatsApp has been jailed for at least 14 years for embezzling millions from its education budget. The 27-year-old directed local officials using WhatsApp while she lived a life of luxury in Sao Luiz, the state capital of Maranhão, around 180 miles away. Following a two-and-a-half year legal battle, Leite was sentenced to 14 years and one month in prison followed by six years of house arrest after she was found guilty of taking R$20m (£4.5m) from an education fund. |

Five questions on potential US declaration of Jerusalem as Israel's capital Posted: 04 Dec 2017 05:45 AM PST US President Donald Trump faces a Monday deadline to decide whether to move the US embassy in Israel to the disputed city of Jerusalem. Israelis and Palestinians are eagerly watching to see whether he again renews a waiver delaying the move, as his predecessors have done. There are suggestions he will sign the waiver and decline to move the embassy for now, but later this week declare Jerusalem as Israel's capital. |

Turkey's Erdogan says will not succumb to U.S. 'blackmail' over court case Posted: 03 Dec 2017 07:24 AM PST Turkish President Erdogan said on Sunday that Turkey would not succumb to "blackmail" by the United States in the trial of a Turkish bank executive being charged with evading U.S. sanctions on Iran. Already strained ties between NATO allies Ankara and Washington have deteriorated as Turkish-Iranian gold trader Reza Zarrab, who is cooperating with U.S. prosecutors, detailed in court a scheme to evade U.S. sanctions. |

Kate Steinle latest: Antifa outnumber neo-Nazis at White House protest over murder trial Posted: 04 Dec 2017 04:46 AM PST Antifa outnumbered white supremacists during a protest in front of the White House which saw the two rival groups hurl slogans at each other before being escorted away by the police. Neo-Nazis and members of the far right gathered on Pennsylvania Avenue carrying American flags and chanting "build the wall" to show their opposition to the verdict in the Kate Steinle trial. Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, an undocumented Mexican immigrant, was found not guilty of murder last week in the killing of a woman on a San Francisco pier that sparked a national immigration debate two years ago. |

Big changes for Florida with mass Puerto Rican immigration Posted: 03 Dec 2017 06:21 PM PST Cristina Sanchez is one of thousands of Puerto Ricans fleeing their hurricane-ravaged island for Florida, a mass migration set to shape the southern US state as much as migrants from communist Cuba in the late 20th century. As her flight departed the capital San Juan, she glanced out the window at what she was leaving behind: a sun-drenched Caribbean island turned into a hellhole by Hurricane Maria. On September 20, powerful Maria tore across Puerto Rico, destroying homes, shattering the island's rickety power grid and phone network, and leaving its 3.4 million residents in the dark and incommunicado. |

U.S. Senate tax bill accomplishes major Obamacare repeal goal Posted: 02 Dec 2017 07:36 PM PST The sweeping tax overhaul that passed the U.S. Senate on Saturday contains the Republicans' biggest blow yet to former President Barack Obama's healthcare law, repealing the requirement that all Americans obtain health insurance. The individual mandate is meant to ensure a viable health insurance market by forcing younger and healthier Americans to buy coverage to help offset the cost of sicker patients. Removing it while keeping the rest of Obama's Affordable Care Act intact is expected to cause insurance premiums to rise and lead to millions of people losing coverage, policy experts say. |

New York financier killed in Costa Rica shark attack Posted: 03 Dec 2017 02:35 PM PST A New York financier has been killed in a shark attack while scuba diving off the coast of Costa Rica, the country's Environment Ministry announced. Rohina Bhandari, 49, a senior director at WL Ross & Co. LL, was identified by friends as the American tourist who was fatally attacked last Thursday. She was dragged from the Pacific Ocean after sustaining severe bites to her legs but could not be saved. Her 26-year-old diving instructor was also badly injured. The male instructor, who was conscious and in relatively stable condition, told officials that the shark attacked when his group was surfacing at the tail end of the dive in pristine waters close to Cocos Island, about 300 miles from the country's mainland. According to the Costa Rican newspaper La Nacion, the guide noticed the shark approaching his group underwater and tried to scare it away. Rohina Bhandari was pulled from the water but could not be saved Credit: Getty But as they surfaced, the shark went for Ms Bhandari, tearing at her legs. Tiger sharks, which have dark stripes on their body when young, are predators often found around Pacific islands. Unlike many other species of shark, they can be aggressive and account for a large proportion of attacks on humans. Authorities said two park rangers and several doctors who were part of the diving tourism group of 18 people on the island trip organised by Undersea Hunter Group, offered first aid in a desperate bid to save her. The group regularly organises tours to the national park reportedly known for its abundance of sharks. Alan Steenstrup, the tour company's sales manager, said they were "in shock" because of the incident and added they were now focusing on working with the victim's family and the authorities. Friends paid tribute to the Manhattan resident on Facebook. "Unbelievably sad and heartbreaking news that Rohina has died," wrote Julie Walker. "She was such a wonderful person who loved life. I will always remember her kindness, friendship and our adventures together." Another unnamed friend wrote: "Your kindness and genuine warmth to those of us lucky enough to call you 'friend' was a blessing to behold." About | Shark attacks The environment ministry stressed the attack was "an isolated incident" and was the most serious one it had seen. The Central American country's economy relies heavily on the tourism industry. |
Yemen's Saleh ruled by shifting alliances as nation crumbled Posted: 04 Dec 2017 08:50 AM PST SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Ali Abdullah Saleh survived for decades as Yemen's strongman, the master of shifting alliances, playing both sides — or flipping sides freely — in the multiple guerrilla conflicts and civil wars that tore apart his impoverished nation throughout his life. But his last switch proved his end. |

Brock Turner: Former Stanford swimmer appeals sexual assault conviction Posted: 03 Dec 2017 05:19 PM PST A former Stanford University swimmer who was found guilty of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman outside a campus fraternity party, is to appeal his conviction. Brock Turner's case made headlines around the world, when the former Olympic hopeful was sentenced to just six months in prison despite a powerful written statement delivered by his victim in which which she outlined the impact the attack had on her. Judge Aaron Persky said a longer sentence would have a "damaging" effect on his life, even though he was found guilty of three separate counts of sexual assault for the 2015 attack. |
Lamborghini drives into crowded SUV market Posted: 04 Dec 2017 12:43 PM PST Sant'Agata Bolognese (Italy) (AFP) - Lamborghini, the fabled Italian sports car manufacturer, on Monday unveiled its new Sports Utility Vehicle, accelerating into a fast growing market already crowded with upmarket rivals. The Urus, as the four-wheel drive "super SUV" will be known, was revealed at the Volkswagen group-owned company's historic home near Bologna. It will reach a top speed of 305 kph (190 mph), can go from zero to 100 kph in 3.6 seconds and brake from 100 kph to zero in 33.7 metres, company officials said. |
Russia's Old Plan for Crushing NATO in War Involved Lots of Nuclear Weapons (And Death) Posted: 04 Dec 2017 08:52 AM PST Petr Lunak goes further in dismissing the plan as a "fairy tale." Beyond being ambitious in its objectives, the plan is downright crazy because it envisions the Soviet and Warsaw Pact soldiers fighting in territory that had just been destroyed by massive nuclear attacks. World War II was the most destructive war in human history. Consider that, a conservative estimate of World War II fatalities is 60 million people, or roughly 3 percent of the world's population at the time. |
Does living near a busy road have an effect on heart health? Posted: 04 Dec 2017 05:41 AM PST A new US study has found that living near a busy road is associated with peripheral artery disease and high blood pressure in those already at high risk for heart disease, adding to the growing body of research that highlights the dangers of traffic-related air pollution. Led by researchers from Duke University, the research is the first large-scale analysis of the effects of airborne traffic-related pollution on both vascular and coronary disease. Although traffic-related air pollution is common worldwide and know to be the source of many health problems, little is known about its impact on vascular health, particularly among people with cardiovascular disease. |
