House Foreign Affairs Chairman Royce latest Republican leaving Congress Posted: 08 Jan 2018 03:56 PM PST By Patricia Zengerle WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican U.S. Representative Ed Royce said on Monday he will not run for a 14th term representing his southern California district, a seat that could be a key to Democratic efforts to win back control of the House of Representatives. Royce is the latest in a wave of some 30 House Republicans who have announced they are retiring, running for another office or resigning. Democrats need to win 24 seats in the November mid-term elections to retake the majority in the House, which Republicans have controlled since 2011. |

VP Pence to travel to Middle East next week Posted: 08 Jan 2018 09:23 AM PST US Vice President Mike Pence will leave next week on a high-stakes trip to Egypt, Jordan and Israel, a US official said Monday, moving ahead with a Middle East tour delayed amid anger over Washington's policy shift on Jerusalem. Initially set for late December, the trip was pushed back as the region reeled from deadly protests triggered by President Donald Trump's controversial decision to declare the Holy City as Israel's capital -- in a break with decades of US policy. Pence will arrive in Cairo on January 20 for a meeting with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, heading the following day to Amman for a one-on-one with King Abdullah II. |

In jab at rivals, Rouhani says Iran protests about more than economy Posted: 08 Jan 2018 08:47 AM PST By Bozorgmehr Sharafedin LONDON (Reuters) - In a swipe at his hardline rivals, President Hassan Rouhani said on Monday young Iranian protesters were unhappy about far more than just the economy and they would no longer defer to the views and lifestyle of an aging revolutionary elite. The pragmatic cleric, who defeated anti-Western hardliners to win re-election last year, also called for the lifting of curbs on social media used by anti-government protesters in the most sustained challenge to conservative authorities since 2009. "It would be a misrepresentation (of events) and also an insult to Iranian people to say they only had economic demands," Rouhani was quoted as saying by Tasnim news agency. |

The Aircraft Carrier: The Weapon that Refuses to 'Sink' Posted: 07 Jan 2018 06:55 AM PST The aircraft carrier is the weapon whose obituary is constantly being written, but which also refuses to die. Twenty years ago, during the height of the "revolution in military affairs" craze, the aircraft carrier was written off as a dinosaur. China and India are currently the only Asian countries operating large fixed-wing carriers, but they may soon be joined by new players, particularly Japan and South Korea (and perhaps others). |

US ends protected status for 200,000 Salvadoran immigrants Posted: 08 Jan 2018 09:21 AM PST The US government announced it is ending special protections for Salvadoran immigrants, forcing nearly 200,000 who have been in the country since before 2001 to leave the country or face deportation. The move threatened tens of thousands of well-established families with children born in the United States. Homeland Security Department Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen announced the end of the 17-year-old "temporary protected status" (TPS) for the Salvadorans, It had shielded them from deportation ever since two major earthquakes rocked El Salvador in early 2001. She said damage inflicted in 2001 in the Central American country did not justify another temporary extension, that El Salvador had received significant international aid, and that much of the country's infrastructure had been rebuilt. They were given 18 months to leave or be deported, enough time that a legislative solution could be crafted by Congress to allow them to stay. The Department of Homeland Security said: "Only Congress can legislate a permanent solution addressing the lack of an enduring lawful immigration status of those currently protected by TPS who have lived and worked in the United States for many years." It came in the wake of the termination of similar protections for 59,000 longtime resident Haitians and 5,300 Nicaraguans late last year, after having been allowed to set deep roots inside the United States for decades. The Salvadorans will have until Sept. 9, 2019, to leave the United States or adjust their legal status. |
One dead, one hurt in blast outside Stockholm area metro Posted: 07 Jan 2018 10:12 AM PST One person died and another was slightly hurt Sunday in a blast outside a metro station in a Stockholm suburb, which police said did not appear to be a terrorist attack. A man in his 60s died in hospital after "he picked up an object off the ground which promptly exploded," police spokesman Sven-Erik Olsson told AFP. |
Nigeria starts large scale evacuation of its citizens from Libya Posted: 07 Jan 2018 12:27 AM PST By Hani Amara TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Nigeria is starting flights to evacuate thousands of its citizens from Libya which will continue until all those wanting to return home have done so, its foreign minister said on Saturday. Nigerians have recently been the largest national group among African migrants travelling to Libya and trying to cross from there to Italy by sea. Since local armed factions and Libya's coastguard began blocking more migrants from leaving in July last year, large numbers have been trapped in Libya, where they often face dire conditions and abuse, including forced labour. |

US company resumes search for missing flight MH370 Posted: 06 Jan 2018 06:29 PM PST Malaysia's government said Saturday that it had approved a new attempt by a private company to find the wreckage of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, nearly four years after its disappearance sparked one of aviation's biggest mysteries. The Texas-based company Ocean Infinity dispatched a search vessel this past week to look in the southern Indian Ocean for debris from the plane, which disappeared March 8, 2014, on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 227 passengers and 12 crew members. The governments of Malaysia, China and Australia called off the nearly three-year official search last January. The Australian Transport Safety Bureau's final report on the search conceded that authorities were no closer to knowing the reasons for the Boeing 777's disappearance, or its exact location. "The basis of the offer from Ocean Infinity is based on 'no cure, no fee,"' said Liow Tiong Lai, Malaysian Transport Minister, on Saturday, meaning that payment will be made only if the company finds the wreckage. "That means they are willing to search the area of 25,000 square kilometers (9,653 square miles) pointed out by the expert group near the Australian waters," he said. Investigators recovered debris from a Boeing 777 wing on Reunion Island Credit: AP However, he said, "I don't want to give too much hope ... to the (next of kin)." He said his government was committed to continuing with the search. He did not offer other details. Ocean Infinity said in a statement that the search vessel Seabed Constructor, which left the South African port of Durban on Tuesday, was taking advantage of favourable weather to move toward "the vicinity of the possible search zone". MH370 | The theories In the initial search for the plane, a 52-day surface search covered an area of several million square miles in the Indian Ocean west of Australia, before an underwater search mapped 274,000 square miles of seabed at depths of up to 20,000 feet. They were the largest aviation searches of their kind in history, according to the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB). Despite other methods such as studying satellite imagery and investigating ocean drifts after debris from the plane washed ashore on islands in the eastern Indian Ocean and the east coast of Africa, the 1,046-day search was called off on January 17, 2017. However, the ATSB's report said the understanding of where the plane may be is "better now than it has ever been," partly as a result of studying debris that washed ashore in 2015 and 2016 that showed the plane was "not configured for a ditching at the end-of-flight", meaning it had run out of fuel. All you need to know | MH370 The search team also looked back at satellite imagery that showed objects in the ocean that may have been MH370 debris. The report said this analysis complemented work detailed in a 2016 review and identified an area of less than 10,000 square miles — roughly the size of the US state of Vermont — that "has the highest likelihood of containing MH370". The search was extremely difficult because no transmissions were received from the aircraft after its first 38 minutes of flight. Systems designed to automatically transmit the flight's position failed to work after this point, the report said. |
Netanyahu calls for closure of UN Palestinian refugee agency Posted: 07 Jan 2018 07:38 AM PST Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday called for the closure of the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, days after US President Donald Trump threatened to cut Palestinian aid. Israel has long viewed the UN agency, known as UNRWA, as biased against it, an allegation the agency strongly denies, saying it is only providing necessary services to Palestinians. Israeli officials also criticise the agency's method of classifying refugees, with descendants also eligible to register. |

The following September, he tied the knot with her 18-year-old daughter, Kaylee Durovick, without divorcing her mother first. Authorities in Pennsylvania first became suspicious of Hauptmann – who worked as a bail bondsman – after receiving reports he was using an alias and possessed a gun, despite being prohibited from doing so because of a previous drug conviction. |

The M27: The Automatic Rifle That Will Make the U.S. Marines Even Deadlier Posted: 06 Jan 2018 06:07 PM PST The beloved M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle may be in more hands sooner than later. The 5.56mm M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle has remained a favorite rifle of the Marine Corps for the better part of this decade. Based on the Heckler & Koch HK416 assault rifle and adopted in 2011 to replace the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon, it's widely considered more versatile and accurate over a longer range than the average weapon — so much so that the Corps has even discussed replacing every infantry Marine's M4 carbine with an IAR variant in coming years. |

Feel free to breastfeed here, Pope tells mothers in Sistine Chapel Posted: 07 Jan 2018 04:16 AM PST Pope Francis baptized 34 infants during a long ceremony in the Sistine Chapel on Sunday and told their mothers to feel free to breastfeed them there if they were hungry. During the ceremony that lasted more than two hours, Francis baptized 18 girls and 16 boys, including two pairs of twins. "If they start performing a concert (by crying), or if they are uncomfortable or too warm or don't feel at ease or are hungry ... breastfeed them, don't be afraid, feed them, because this too is the language of love," he said in a short improvised homily. |
