Trump fumes before Comey testimony: 'No evidence' I colluded with RussiaHours before FBI Director James Comey's testimony before Congress on the bureau's probe into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, President Trump took a few swings on Twitter.

U.S. to ban some airline passengers from carrying larger electronicsBy David Shepardson and Mark Hosenball WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. authorities are planning to ban passengers traveling on certain U.S.-bound foreign airline flights from carrying into the cabin larger electronic devices in response to an unspecified terrorism threat, U.S. officials told Reuters on Monday. The new rule is expected to be announced as early as Monday by the Department of Homeland Security, the officials said, adding that it had been under consideration since the U.S. government learned of a threat several weeks ago. The officials did not name the other countries.

The World's Best Heart Health Found in Indigenous Amazon Group

Posted: 20 Mar 2017 12:04 AM PDT

The World's Best Heart Health Found in Indigenous Amazon GroupIn an indigenous group of people in South America, researchers are finding the healthiest blood vessels ever studied, thanks in part to a diet that's rich in complex carbs. The Tsimane people — who live in the Bolivian Amazon — were five times less likely to have atherosclerosis compared with people in the United States, according to the study. Atherosclerosis is sometimes referred to as "hardening of the arteries" and is a major risk factor for heart disease.

Exclusive: North Korea has no fear of U.S. sanctions move, will pursue nuclear arms - envoy

Exclusive: North Korea has no fear of U.S. sanctions move, will pursue nuclear arms - envoyBy Stephanie Nebehay GENEVA (Reuters) - North Korea has nothing to fear from any U.S. move to broaden sanctions aimed at cutting it off from the global financial system and will pursue "acceleration" of its nuclear and missile programs, a North Korean envoy told Reuters on Tuesday. This includes developing a "pre-emptive first strike capability" and an inter-continental ballistic missile (ICBM), said Choe Myong Nam, deputy ambassador at the North Korean mission to the United Nations in Geneva. Reuters, quoting a senior U.S. official in Washington, reported on Monday that the Trump administration is considering sweeping sanctions as part of a broad review of measures to counter North Korea's nuclear and missile threat.

Durbin said that the temperatures the day of the incident were freezing, but "not as cold as your dissent."

Things keep getting worse for Uber as president and mapping VP both just quit

Things keep getting worse for Uber as president and mapping VP both just quit

It's safe to say that 2017 hasn't been particularly kind of Uber thus far, with its CEO's public meltdowns, accusations of rampant sexism and harassment at its highest ranks, and reports revealing how the company secretly evaded government oversight. You'd probably think things couldn't get much worse for the company, but you'd be wrong, as today brings with it a pair of high-profile departures that include Uber's VP of mapping and business, as well as president Jeff Jones.

Brian McClendon, the aforementioned VP, has reportedly been planning to depart for some time, and will also remain connected to Uber in an advisory role. Jones, on the other hand, seemingly wants nothing more to do with the company he joined just six months ago, issuing a statement to Recode claiming "the beliefs and approach to leadership that have guided my career are inconsistent with what I saw and experienced at Uber."

"After we announced our intention to hire a COO, Jeff came to the tough decision that he doesn't see his future at Uber," embattled CEO Travis Kalanick said in a note to Uber employees. "It is unfortunate that this was announced through the press but I thought it was important to send all of you an email before providing comment publicly."

Jones was recruited to Uber from Target, and was brought on board to assist Kalanick in managing the company. His departure after less than a year on the job and his thinly veiled jab at Uber's corporate culture as he makes his way out the door is certainly telling.

Former foes salute Martin McGuinness, IRA man turned peacemaker

Former foes salute Martin McGuinness, IRA man turned peacemakerBy Ian Graham and Conor Humphries BELFAST/LONDONDERRY, Northern Ireland (Reuters) - Martin McGuinness, the Irish Republican Army commander who laid down his arms to become a major architect of peace in Northern Ireland, died on Tuesday aged 66, drawing tributes from allies and former enemies alike. The face of Irish Republicanism during some of the worst moments of "The Troubles" that killed more than 3,600 people, McGuinness remained a figure of hate for many pro-British Protestants until his death. "He believed in a shared future, and refused to live in the past, a lesson all of us who remain should learn and live by," former U.S. President Bill Clinton, whose hands-on role was central to brokering the 1998 peace accord, said in a statement.

Spider venom may offer hope to stroke victims: scientists

Spider venom may offer hope to stroke victims: scientistsA protein in the venom of potentially deadly funnel web spiders could minimise the effects of brain damage after a stroke, researchers in Australia said on Tuesday. Strokes claim six million lives worldwide each year, and five million survivors are left with a permanent disability. Scientists from the University of Queensland and Monash University said spider venom was always a good place to look for proteins to help in medical treatments as they have evolved to target the nervous systems of insects.

FBI head confirms Russia election probe, says Moscow backed TrumpBy Patricia Zengerle and Warren Strobel WASHINGTON (Reuters) - FBI Director James Comey on Monday confirmed for the first time that the bureau is investigating possible ties between Republican Donald Trump's presidential campaign and Russia as Moscow sought to influence the 2016 U.S. election. Comey and Admiral Mike Rogers, the director of the National Security Agency, made clear that their investigation of Moscow and November's U.S. elections could last for months. Appearing before a congressional panel, Comey also publicly challenged Trump's claim that former President Barack Obama wiretapped his 2016 campaign headquarters in Manhattan's Trump Tower.


Should you install solar panels on your roof? Ask Google

Posted: 20 Mar 2017 03:31 AM PDT

Should you install solar panels on your roof? Ask GoogleIn 2015, Google launched Project Sunroof, a map that shows which houses have enough sun exposure for solar panels to be a viable energy source. However, the original map was very limited, covering only the San Francisco Bay Area, Fresno, California and Boston. Now, Google has greatly expanded the project to cover all 50 U.S. states, with a total of 60 million buildings in the database.  SEE ALSO: Google pledges $11.5 million to racial justice innovators across the U.S. The project uses imagery from Google Earth and Maps as well as some machine learning magic to get a good idea of how much sunlight each portion of each roof is getting. According to Google, weather patterns, sun positioning changes and possible shade from nearby buildings is taken into account.  The result is a map which not only lets home owners easily assess whether they should consider a solar roof, but it also offers a good insight of the country's solar energy potential.  Solar potential of Google's headquarters in Mountain View, Calif. Image: Google In a blog post last week, Google shared a few interesting data points; for example, the company claims that 79 percent of all rooftops analyzed are "technically viable" for solar. Naturally, in some sunny areas, such as Hawaii, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico, this number grows to over 90 percent. States like Pennsylvania, Maine and Minnesota have just over 60 percent viability, Google says.  As for the city with the most solar potential in the U.S., the honor belongs to Houston, Texas, which has an estimated 18,940GWh of rooftop solar generation potential per year.

Face recognition flushes out China's toilet paper crooks

Face recognition flushes out China's toilet paper crooksA years-long crime spree by Chinese toilet paper thieves may have reached the end of its roll after park officials in southern Beijing installed facial recognition technology to flush out bathroom bandits. Park managers at the Temple of Heaven, an expanse of imperial landmarks in the capital, spent three years testing ways to foil the toilet looters, including fingerprinting and laser sensors, before they settled on the new technology, which was introduced over the weekend. Elderly square dancers taking their bathroom breaks on Tuesday were greeted by a robotic voice: "Welcome! Please stand in the recognition zone".

Restoration work completed on Jesus tomb site in JerusalemMoropoulou directed the work at the site.     The Greek Orthodox, Armenian and Roman Catholic denominations share custody of the church, where tensions often run high over control of its various sectors. Disputes between the dominations have held up restoration work for more than 200 years.     Work only began last year after the church was deemed unsafe by Israeli authorities, who have controlled East Jerusalem since its capture in the 1967 Middle East war.     Media reports said each denomination had contributed toward the project and Jordan's King Abdullah also made a personal donation, with the work costing around $3.3 million.     Moropoulou said extensive work had been carried out on the masonry of the tomb.
