At least four dead in New Mexico after bus collides with truck Posted: 30 Aug 2018 04:31 PM PDT New Mexico State Police did not immediately confirm how many people were killed and injured, or the cause of the crash on Interstate 40 near Thoreau, about 100 miles west of Albuquerque. Greyhound Lines said 49 people were aboard the bus, which was traveling from Albuquerque to Phoenix, Arizona. A spokeswoman, Crystal Booker, deferred comment to state police regarding the crash. |

Security camera catches speeding Tesla going airborne after hitting railroad tracks Posted: 29 Aug 2018 03:42 PM PDT Teslas are well known for their acceleration, but flying? A Canadian man caught some serious air after speeding over a railroad crossing in Barrie, Canada, on Tuesday at around 8 p.m. local time. A security camera happened to catch the incident, and holy crap. SEE ALSO: Elon Musk opens up about the personal toll Tesla is taking on him The 46-year-old driver "became airborne and crashed over 100 feet into the opposing lane," according to Barrie Today. The Tesla skidded after landing, and eventually hit a tree in a parking lot. Considering Teslas are, you know, not supposed to fly, it's not surprising that the four-door vehicle, which appears to be a sedan, was totaled. The exact model was not released. Global News reports that the driver of the vehicle was charged with dangerous driving, and was treated at the hospital for minor injuries along with a passenger. Thankfully, no other vehicles were involved. Teslas are relatively heavy cars thanks to the electric battery, so it's safe to say that the vehicle's impressive acceleration capabilities did help the vehicle go airborne, though given the charges it appears that police are blaming the driver. Here's what the driver saw before liftoff: Image: screenshot/google mapsA Redditor who claims to live in the area said it's quite easy to get airborne on the tracks: "I live near here and you literally just need to be going 30 to get air. The guy is a moron." WATCH: Say goodbye to your crutches with this hands-free alternative |

S. Korea's Moon replaces defence chief in cabinet reshuffle Posted: 30 Aug 2018 12:21 AM PDT South Korean President Moon Jae-in on Thursday replaced his defence chief and four other ministers in a cabinet reshuffle after falling approval ratings in recent weeks. Moon has driven a rapid diplomatic rapprochement with nuclear-armed North Korea, but defence minister Song Young-moo came under fire for mishandling a controversy over a defence intelligence unit. In March, documents emerged detailing military plans to impose martial law against protesters demanding the ouster of Moon's predecessor Park Geun-hye last year, but Song failed to report them to the presidential Blue House. |

Puerto Rico's death toll from Hurricane Maria raised to nearly 3,000 Posted: 28 Aug 2018 06:23 PM PDT The report found that an estimated 2,975 deaths could be attributed directly or indirectly to Maria from the time it struck in September 2017 to mid-February of this year. The latest Puerto Rico figure was derived from comparisons between predicted mortality under normal circumstances and deaths documented after the storm, a number that turned out to be 22 percent higher. The emergency response to Maria became highly politicized as the Trump administration was castigated as being slow to recognize the gravity of the devastation and too sluggish in providing disaster relief to Puerto Rico, an island of more than 3 million residents. |
Posted: 29 Aug 2018 08:23 AM PDT A Vatican whistle-blower who has accused Pope Francis of having covered up sexually abusive behaviour by an American cardinal stepped up his attack on Wednesday, speaking from a secret location. Archbishop Carlo Mario Vigano, a former Vatican ambassador to the US, has plunged the Catholic Church into crisis with allegations that the pope failed to act against Theodore McCarrick, a US cardinal, who was accused of sexually abusing young priests over decades. Cardinal McCarrick, the former archbishop of Washington, resigned in disgrace last month, becoming the first cardinal to step down since 1927. Archbishop Vigano, 77, released an 11-page document detailing the allegations at the weekend and called on Francis to resign. He then went underground amid reports that he feared for his safety. After days of silence he gave an interview, from an undisclosed location, to an Italian journalist, renewing his criticism of Francis' papacy. Cardinal Theodore McCarrick resigned in disgrace in July Credit: Max Rossi/Reuters "I spoke out because corruption has now reached the highest levels of the Church hierarchy," he said, claiming he had received broad support for his actions. "I have had messages from priests and the faithful who have thanked me because my testimony was for them a glimmer of hope for the Church." He denied that he was pursuing a "vendetta" against Pope Francis and cardinals close to him. Vatican analysts say the attack appears to be part of a concerted effort by conservatives to oust Pope Francis, who they dislike for his relatively liberal views on issues such as acceptance of homosexuals, allowing divorcees to take Communion and his push for a more inclusive Church. "It really seems like an obvious move by conservatives to de-legitimise Francis," David Gibson, director of the Centre on Religion and Culture at Fordham University in New York, told Reuters. "This whole thing was carefully coordinated with conservative Catholic media and carefully timed." The strategy was to damage Francis's legacy before he either dies or resigns, perhaps due to ill health, and to ensure a conservative successor. "It's the start of the campaign for the next conclave," said Mr Gibson, referring to the secret election held in the Sistine Chapel to choose a new pope. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano has gone into hiding since making the allegations against Pope Francis Credit: Pool/Reuters "Behind these attacks there are dark forces," said Tommaso Valentinetti, 66, an Italian archbishop. The pope's enemies were "throwing mud" to try to discredit him, he said. The allegations against Pope Francis were first aired in the middle of his trip to Ireland, where he apologised for the Church's decades of complicity and cover-up in the sexual abuse of children by Catholic clergy. Archbishop Vigano claims that he told Pope Francis of the allegations about Cardinal McCarrick, whom he described as "a serial predator", back in 2013. He said that rather than punish McCarrick, the Argentinian pontiff had lifted sanctions imposed on him by his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI. It was only last month that Francis removed McCarrick as a cardinal, ordering him to live a lifetime of penance and prayer, after Church officials in the US found that allegations that he sexually abused a 16-year-old boy were credible. The Pope has not addressed the allegations directly but told journalists on board the papal plane returning from Ireland to Rome to "read the communique attentively and make your own judgement." In his weekly address in St Peter's Square on Wednesday, Pope Francis spoke about the sins committed by the Church in Ireland but did not mention the accusations levelled against him by Archbishop Vigano. The de facto leader of the conservatives who are deeply unhappy with Francis's five-year papacy is Cardinal Raymond Burke, an American. Pope Francis poses with native Mexican people during his weekly audience in St. Peter's Square on August 29, 2018 in the Vatican. Credit: Giulio Origlia/Getty A traditionalist, he has accused the Pope of causing confusion with his remarks about homosexuality and giving Communion to divorcees who remarry in civil ceremonies. Cardinal Burke said on Wednesday that the allegations levelled against the Pope by Archbishop Vigano were "very serious" and had left him "speechless". "I believe we now need a full response from the Pope and the Vatican," he told La Repubblica newspaper. Calling for the pope to resign was "legitimate" if it was proved that he had made "grave errors" but the matter needed to be properly investigated, Cardinal Burke said. "I have nothing personal against the pope. I'm simply trying to defend the true faith and the clear presentation of the faith." |

Dyson ramps up electric car development Posted: 30 Aug 2018 02:32 AM PDT The UK vacuum cleaner company Dyson has announced proposals costing around £200 million that will see it creating office space and test tracks at ex-RAF airbase Hullavington to help it develop a new electric car it hopes to bring to market in 2021. A lot of the development of electric vehicles is currently being carried out by new startup companies and traditional automakers, but there are also plenty of companies not normally associated with any sort of transportation getting in on the act. On the face of things it might seem odd for a vacuum cleaner company to go into producing cars. |

Senior Republican calls for reopening of Google probe Posted: 30 Aug 2018 01:21 PM PDT A senior Republican senator on Thursday urged US regulators to reopen an antitrust investigation into Google, citing "important developments" since the review was closed in 2013. Lawmakers have no official role in determining how the independent agency manages its investigations, but Hatch's call comes amid growing complaints from some activist organizations and following a series of antitrust investigations targeting Google in the European Union. Hatch stated that "Google does have a long track record of providing valuable services and making important, innovative contributions. |
Myanmar rejects 'false allegations' in U.N. genocide report Posted: 29 Aug 2018 03:31 AM PDT The U.N. report marked the first time the organization has explicitly called for Myanmar officials to face genocide charges over a brutal crackdown on Rohingya Muslims last year. "Our stance is clear and I want to say sharply that we don't accept any resolutions conducted by the Human Rights Council," the main government spokesman, Zaw Htay, said in an interview published in state media. The fact-finding mission on Myanmar was established in March 2017 by the U.N. Human Rights Council. |
California takes major step toward 100 per cent clean energy use Posted: 29 Aug 2018 02:26 PM PDT California has taken a big step towards a sustainable energy future with the approval of a bill that will require the state to run 100 per cent on renewable energy sources. The bill still needs approval in the state Senate and the signature of Governor Jerry Brown, but it would require the state to shift to all clean energy sources by 2045, boosting the local wind and solar energy economies. The legislation marks an ambitious goal for a state that has led the climate change charge in the wake of President Donald Trump's decision to pull the US out of the Paris Climate Change Agreement. |

"I hope our Western partners will not give in to (rebel) provocations and will not obstruct an anti-terror operation" in Idlib, foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said at a press conference with his Saudi counterpart Adel al-Jubeir in Moscow. Lavrov also said that there is "full political understanding" between Russia and Turkey, who support opposing sides of the Syrian civil war but are currently in intense negotiations to ensure Idlib does not become a breaking point in their alliance. |

Posted: 29 Aug 2018 09:20 AM PDT When Elon Musk accused a Thai cave rescue hero of being a "pedo", he suggested he would have been sued if it was not true. Mr Musk has revived the bizarre accusation in recent hours when he posted a tweet suggesting once again that Vern Unsworth, one of the divers involved in the rescue, was a paedophile. In a strange conversation that began with a discussion of whether Mr Musk had cried or not, he argued with a Twitter user who suggested that he should have been more careful when he made the first accusation. |
