Posted: 15 May 2017 12:57 PM PDT

Yemen rebels declare state of emergency over cholera outbreakRebel authorities in Yemen's capital have sounded the alarm over a spreading cholera outbreak that has killed dozens in the war-torn country, calling for urgent international assistance. The International Committee of the Red Cross on Monday said 184 people had died of cholera since April 27, with another 11,000 suspected cases diagnosed across the country. This is the second outbreak of the disease in less than a year in Yemen, where less than half of the country's medical facilities are functional two years into a war between Iranian-backed Huthi rebels and the Saudi-supported government.

Former Obama Justice Department official slams Sessions over drug sentencing reversal

Posted: 15 May 2017 02:10 PM PDT

Former Obama Justice Department official slams Sessions over drug sentencing reversalVanita Gupta, the former head of the U.S. Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, called Attorney General Jeff Sessions' harsh new sentencing policy "incredibly disappointing" in an interview Monday. Last week, Sessions directed all federal prosecutors to pursue "the most serious, readily provable offense," including those that carry mandatory minimum sentences — effectively reversing course on Obama-era policies aimed at drug sentencing reform. Gupta, who also served as principal deputy assistant attorney general in the Obama administration, said the move was not entirely surprising given Sessions' record in the Senate of resisting criminal justice reform.

Donald Trump's aides heard 'yelling' in White House office as presidency descends into chaos

Posted: 16 May 2017 02:38 AM PDT

Donald Trump's aides heard 'yelling' in White House office as presidency descends into chaosThe White House has been engulfed by fresh chaos over allegations Donald Trump revealed classified information to Russian officials, sparking bizarre scenes as aides reportedly turned up televisions to drown out shouting between top aides. Dozens of reporters crowded into the hallway outside Sean Spicer's office after the Washington Post published its report on Mr Trump's discussions with Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov and ambassador Sergey Kislyak. Press officers walked through the pack in silence as journalists asked for more information, while televisions in the press area picked up on the story, just days after the furore over the sacking of FBI director James Comey.

U.S. court rejects Georgia inmate's bid to die by firing squad

Posted: 16 May 2017 02:55 PM PDT

U.S. court rejects Georgia inmate's bid to die by firing squadA U.S. appeals court has rejected a Georgia death row inmate's motion that his scheduled Tuesday execution by lethal injection be halted and that he be put to death instead by a firing squad, which his lawyers said would be less painful for him. J.W. Ledford, 45, has spent about a quarter century on death row after being convicted of the 1992 robbery and murder of a doctor who lived near him. Lawyers for Ledford said he wanted to be executed by firing squad because a drug he takes for nerve pain would lead to an "excruciating death" under Georgia's lethal injection protocol.

This is the Retina MacBook Apple needs to make

Posted: 16 May 2017 02:17 PM PDT

This is the Retina MacBook Apple needs to make

A new report suggests that Apple is planning on upgrading the entire MacBook line at WWDC, its big developer conference held at the end of May. Some upgrades we can already call: the new MacBook Pro and old MacBook Air line will probably get Intel's latest version of Core i7 processor, and new iMacs are almost a lock. But beyond a minor spec bump, it's difficult to know exactly what Apple plans to do with the Retina MacBook.

Right now, the Retina MacBook is sitting in a weird place. In many ways, it's meant to be the definition of thin-and-light computing: good battery life, remarkably thin, and enough processing power to handle everyday tasks, and nothing more. But according to Apple's own rationale, it's made redundant by the iPad Pro, which is supposed to have PC-level performance in the convenience of a tablet form factor.

Worse, the low-end specs of the Retina MacBook make it an easy target for cheap Windows laptops and high-end Chromebooks. Asus's high-end Chromebook, for example, gets you the same CPU and RAM as the Retina MacBook for less than half the price. Sure, the build quality is prettier on the MacBook, but it's also stuck with one single USB-C port. Even setting the price aside for a second, the Retina MacBook just isn't a particularly appealing laptop anymore.

Without the Retina MacBook as a viable option, Apple's low-end options look weak. Sure, the MacBook Pro is a thin and capable computer, but even the cheapest option starts at $1,500. In a world of perfectly usable $300 Chromebooks, that's a big ask.

Long story short, Apple needs to do something to the Retina MacBook, and fast. It's already ruled out the option of giving us the updated MacBook Air that we all want, so it's time to double down and build a Retina MacBook that's actually appealing.

Realistically speaking, here's what that would look like. The form factor has to stay more or less the same, which rules out much more power -- there's just not room. I expect Apple to start by adding a second USB-C port on the other side of the laptop, which gives far more versatility, and (best of all!) means you can charge from either side. When the Retina MacBook first came out, I suspect it was limited to one USB-C port because of the cost and size of the USB-C controller inside. These days, they're much cheaper and smaller, and there's no real reason not to put at least one port on each side.

Do that, put in Intel's latest Core m5 and at least 8GB of RAM, and you have a genuinely usable everyday laptop in a thin form factor. Drop the price down to $899 for a cheap model with 128GB of storage (have to make the savings somewhere), and you'd convert the majority of people looking at a fancy Chromebook.

Indian woman battered to death with bricks after being gang-rapedAn Indian woman was gang-raped and then brutally murdered by men who smashed her skull with bricks after she had threatened to inform authorities, police in the northern state of Haryana, said on Monday. Police have arrested two men for rape and murder in Sonipat town, and six more were being investigated after the victim's mother accused them of involvement, superintendent of police Ashwin Shenvi told Reuters. The 23-year old woman, a laborer, was taken by the men - at least one of whom knew her - by car from near her home in Sonipat to the nearby city of Rohtak, where they raped her, Shenvi said.

Plastic trash chokes remote South Pacific island

Posted: 15 May 2017 08:24 PM PDT

Plastic trash chokes remote South Pacific islandOne of the planet's most remote islands is polluted with the highest density of plastic particles ever reported, with more than 3,500 pieces washing up daily, researchers said Monday. Henderson Island is uninhabited, and lies far out in the South Pacific -- east of New Zealand and west of Chile -- some 3,100 miles (5,000 kilometers) from the nearest major land mass. "What's happened on Henderson Island shows there's no escaping plastic pollution even in the most distant parts of our oceans," said lead author Jennifer Lavers, a researcher at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (IMAS) at the University of Tasmania, who co-authored the report with the British conservation charity the Royal Society for the Preservation of Birds.

Israel wants White House to explain U.S. official's Western Wall comment

Israel wants White House to explain U.S. official's  Western Wall commentBy Ori Lewis JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel wants the White House to explain why a U.S. diplomat preparing President Donald Trump's visit to Jerusalem said Judaism's Holy Western Wall in its Old City is part of the Israeli-occupied West Bank, an Israeli official said on Monday. Israel considers all of Jerusalem as its indivisible capital, a claim that is not recognized internationally, and the Western Wall - the holiest prayer site for Jews - is part of territory it captured in the 1967 Middle East war.

Researchers found a dinosaur that still has its skin and guts

Researchers found a dinosaur that still has its skin and guts

When archeologists hunt for fossils what they're typically after are bones, footprints, and other fossilized traces of ancient creators having once roamed the planet. What they almost never even hope to find is a dinosaur that still has some of its most delicate bits and pieces, but that's exactly what paleontologists uncovered in Alberta, Canada, over half a decade ago. Now, after years of piecing together and studying the historic remains of the 3,000-pound creature, the fossil is finally ready for the public eye, and it's a truly stunning sight.

The fossil is that of a nodosaur, a type of herbivorous dinosaur that lived between 110 million and 112 million years ago. Despite being a plant eater, it was an absolutely monstrous beast, measuring 18 feet long, with heavy armor plating and spiked scales stretching from head to toe.

The remains were found completely on accident, when mine workers sliced through part of the dinosaur's fossilized skin. Once they realized they'd discovered something strange they alerted archeologists who unearthed the rest and found it to be the most spectacularly preserved example of a fossil of this type, not to mention a totally new species of nodosaur. Just half of the creature's remains were able to be located — from the tip of its nose down to its hips — but the state of the fossilized skin and some of its organs is a truly rare treat.

As you can see in the images, the skin is in such remarkable condition that even its individual scales and be seen, along with its large spikes, details of its skull, and shoulders. The fossil is currently on display at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta, Canada in a new "Grounds for Discovery" exhibit.
