After missile failure, higher possibility of North Korea nuclear test Posted: 15 Apr 2016 03:26 PM PDT By Jack Kim and David Brunnstrom SEOUL/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The likelihood of North Korea conducting a fifth nuclear test, possibly within weeks, has increased because of a failed missile launch on Friday that was an embarrassing setback for leader Kim Jong Un, South Korean officials and international experts said. North Korea holds a ruling Workers Party congress in early May, at which Kim is likely to trumpet his achievements in building up Pyongyang's weapons prowess. South Korean officials and experts say he will be keen to go into the congress with a show of strength, and not a failed rocket launch.

Sanders aide says the Clintons are showing their frustration Posted: 14 Apr 2016 10:12 PM PDT Jeff Weaver, campaign manager for Bernie Sanders' presidential bid in the Democratic primary, believes the Vermont senator's opponent and her husband are on edge. Speaking to Yahoo News after the Democratic presidential debate in Brooklyn, N.Y., Weaver said he believes there has been a certain "edginess" in the Clinton campaign in the last few weeks, given that Sanders has won eight of the last nine primary contests.

Belgian transport minister quits over airport security Posted: 15 Apr 2016 05:06 AM PDT Belgium's transport minister resigned on Friday following opposition accusations she lied about an EU report that criticized security at Brussels Airport a year before last month's Islamic State suicide bombings. Jacqueline Galant had previously maintained before parliament that her office had not been aware of a critical report sent in March 2015 by EU officials. European Commission officials declined comment on the report but noted they carry out regular checks on security at European airports and raise any concerns with national authorities.

Trump praises ‘New York values’ before hometown crowd Posted: 14 Apr 2016 09:25 PM PDT Donald Trump addresses the New York State Republican Gala April 14 in New York. NEW YORK — Donald Trump took the stage inside the ballroom of a hotel he built here Thursday night and cast himself not only as a defining figure in the architecture of New York but as a staunch defender of its values. In a speech before a mostly adoring hometown crowd at the New York State Republican Gala, Trump never once mentioned his rival Ted Cruz by name, but repeatedly mocked the Texas senator's criticism of "New York values," insisting that it is those core beliefs that have the ability to get the country back on track.

"Of course not," she said, but when Sanders chuckled, she became more than serious.

Panel recommends parole for ex-Manson follower Van Houten Posted: 15 Apr 2016 06:12 AM PDT CHINO, Calif. (AP) — Leslie Van Houten stood before the California panel that would soon recommend her parole as a slight woman with shoulder-length gray hair, a wrinkled face and glasses, a far cry to from the rebellious teen she was when she joined the cult of Charles Manson more than 40 years ago and helped kill a wealthy grocer and his wife.
