Trump: I'm told I shouldn't ask my SCOTUS nominee about Roe v. WadePresident Trump said he probably won't ask potential Supreme Court candidates about their opinions on abortion before nominating Justice Anthony M. Kennedy's replacement. In a program that aired Sunday morning, Fox News journalist Maria Bartiromo asked Trump if he would ask his nominees beforehand how they might vote on Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision affirming that the constitutional right to privacy extends to a woman's decision to have an abortion. Trump responded that he's been advised not to ask such specific questions and that he plans to appoint another conservative justice like Neil Gorsuch, whom Trump appointed to replace Antonin Scalia.

Classmates yearn for safe return of Thai boys trapped in caveClassmates of 12 boys trapped in a flooded Thai cave spoke of their hopes for a miracle rescue Monday, as divers inched through thick mud and water towards an air pocket where the group is believed to be. The massive rescue effort has been hampered by heavy rains that flooded the Tham Luang cave in northern Thailand, blocking access to chambers where it is hoped the group will be found alive. Friends and teachers of the "Wild Boar" football team refused to give up hope of seeing the young players again.

Hero dog suffers swollen snout after saving owner from rattlesnake bite

Posted: 02 Jul 2018 08:46 AM PDT

Hero dog suffers swollen snout after saving owner from rattlesnake biteWhen his owner almost stepped on a rattlesnake during an early morning hike near their home in Arizona, Todd, the golden retriever, knew exactly what to do. The six-month old puppy jumped in front of Paula Godwin. Instead of Ms Godwin's legs, the venomous fangs sank into his snout. The grateful owner posted the story of their snake encounter on Facebook, alongside photographs of Todd's swollen features. "As we were walking down the hill I literally almost stepped on a rattlesnake. But my hero of a puppy Todd saved me," she wrote. Paula Godwin's post quickly went viral "He jumped right in front of my leg where I surely would have got bit. This is what a hero looks like." Her saviour was yelping in pain after the bite, so she scooped the dog up in her arms and set off to a nearby animal hospital with her other dog copper. Todd was given a shot of anti-venom and allowed home to recover after 12 hours. "Please say a little prayer for my sweet hero," wrote Ms Godwin. Todd is making a good recovery, even if he remains a little sore Credit: Paula Godwin/Facebook The result was an outpouring of love as the story went viral, along with more tales from dog owners of how man's best friend had warded off snake attacks. "What a little hero! Hoping for a speedy recovery for Todd," wrote BriAnne Gleason. Ms Godwin followed up the story by launching a GoFundMe appeal to help other owners who face vet's bills for dogs bitten by rattlesnakes. Snakes | How common are snake attacks in Britain? She said she knew the dangers of snakes but had not spotted the speckled white rattlesnake that was almost invisible as it lay in wait on the road. "This snake did not give any indication he was there," she told the BBC. "Usually if I hear that rattle I am alert and I am backing away." This is Todd. He saved his human from a rattlesnake yesterday. A true h*ckin hero. He's expected to make a full recovery and has been rewarded our fifth ever 15/10 pic.twitter.com/TsS6isI0Ew— WeRateDogs™ (@dog_rates) 1 July 2018 And she reassured well-wishers that Todd was on the mend, posting a picture of the pup enjoying a romp in a rattlesnake-free park. "Thank you for all the sweet kind words," she wrote. "My sweet Todd for sure is my hero and I feel I have to say that the man up stairs surely is watching out for me too."


Justice Clarence Thomas leading the US supreme court? A scary thought

Posted: 02 Jul 2018 04:55 AM PDT

Justice Clarence Thomas leading the US supreme court? A scary thoughtPerhaps because of this, his extreme, rightwing jurisprudence has not been seen as very influential, unlike that of his ideological clone, the late Antonin Scalia or the court's newcomer, Neil Gorsuch. Already, this most recent court term has been a debacle for the liberal justices who, according to Adam Liptak of the New York Times, largely failed to peel off Kennedy to form a majority in the major cases. Already there is much speculation that Donald Trump's nominee to replace Kennedy will be, if confirmed, the decisive vote to overturn Roe v Wade, the decision legalizing a woman's right to have an abortion.

Birth of a planet captured for first time as gas giant bigger than Jupiter swirls into existence

Posted: 02 Jul 2018 05:43 AM PDT

Birth of a planet captured for first time as gas giant bigger than Jupiter swirls into existenceEven by astronomical standards it is a discovery that is out of this world. Scientists have for the first time witnessed the birth of a planet, a huge gas giant many times the size of Jupiter, swirling into existence 370 light years from Earth.  The theory of how gas planets form from a vortex of hydrogen and helium molecules captivated by their own gravity, is now widely accepted by scientists. But it has never been seen before, until now. Today scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) in Heidelberg and the SPHERE instrument consortium at the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile, released a spectacular image of the birth  The planet, currently known as PDS 70b, is shown orbiting within a huge spinning 'protoplanetary disc' of gas and dust, which proves it is continuing to accumulate matter, and so is not yet fully formed.  The newborn sits within a 5.4 million year old solar system, orbiting a star called PDS 70 at a distance of 1.8 billion miles.  The planet stands out clearly in the image, visible as a bright point to the right of the blackened centre. The dark region at the centre of the image is due to a coronagraph, a mask which blocks the blinding light of the central star and allows astronomers to detect the faint light from the planet. "For our study, we selected PDS 70, a star that was already suspected of having a young planet circling around it," says Miriam Keppler, doctoral student at MPIA. "These discs around young stars are the birthplaces of planets, but so far only a handful of observations have detected hints of baby planets in them. Space exploration | Recent exciting discoveries "The problem is that until now, most of these planet candidates could just have been features in the disc." This glimpse of the dust-shrouded birth of a planet was only possible because of ESO's SPHERE instrument, which studies exoplanets and discs around nearby stars using a technique known as high-contrast imaging.  Using the instrument, astronomers were able measure the brightness of the planet at different wavelengths, and find out its composition.  It is located roughly three billion kilometres from the central star, roughly equivalent to the distance between Uranus and the Sun. The planet takes about 120 years to orbit its host star.  Spectral analysis shows PDS 70 b is a giant gas planet, with a mass a few times that of Jupiter and a surface temperature of around 1,000C, making it much hotter than any planet in our own solar system.  Signs of life in our Solar System Thomas Henning, director at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy and leader of the teams, summarises the scientific adventure: "After more than a decade of enormous efforts to build this high-tech machine, now SPHERE enables us to reap the harvest with the discovery of baby planets." To date, astronomers have discovered around 3,800 exoplanets outside of the solar system but have never seen one being born. "The results give us a new window onto the complex and poorly-understood early stages of planetary evolution," said Dr André Müller, leader of the second team to investigate the young planet.  "We needed to observe a planet in a young star's disc to really understand the processes behind planet formation."

The 68-year-old is keeping Germany on tenterhooks over his next move that could potentially send the government crashing, after he offered to resign during a dramatic overnight crisis meeting with his Christian Social Union (CSU) before reversing his stance. In a sign of mounting frustration, Seehofer reportedly told CSU colleagues that he "travelled especially to Berlin but the chancellor is moving zero point zero" percent with her stance.

Fury sparked after 11-year-old Thai girl married to Malaysian man

Posted: 01 Jul 2018 09:57 AM PDT

Fury sparked after 11-year-old Thai girl married to Malaysian manThe marriage of a Malaysian man with a 11-year-old Thai girl has sparked outrage in the Muslim majority country with one activist Sunday labelling the groom a "child predator". Malaysian Muslims below the age of 16 are allowed to marry if they obtain the permission of a religious court. But the country's women and families ministry said there was no record of religious authorities approving the union, which took place last month across the border in Thailand's largely Muslim far south. "Our officers have gone to the house and met the girl's mother. We are waiting for more reports before deciding on the next course of action," deputy prime minister Wan Azizah Wan Ismail was quoted as saying by the Sunday Star newspaper. The 41-year-old husband could be jailed for six months if he married without permission. Malaysian activists have called for law reform to end child marriage, which they said was widespread among the country's Muslim population. Some 16,000 Malaysian girls below the age of 15 are already married, advocates claim. "Marrying a 11-year-old girl is like the behaviour of a child predator or paedophile," child activist Syed Azmi Alhabshi said.  Mr Alhabshi said the man was a prosperous trader and already married to two women while the girl's parents were impoverished rubber farmers. Muslim men are allowed to marry up to four wives in Malaysia. The United Nations children's agency Unicef said it was "outraged" by the incident. "It is shocking and unacceptable. Unicef... calls on the government to make good its manifesto promise to ban child marriage," said the agency's Malaysia representative Marianne Clark-Hattingh.

Thousands march in Hong Kong as restrictions growProtesters marched through central Hong Kong on Sunday in one of the city's major annual pro-democracy rallies as organisers said the event was coming under unprecedented pressure from authorities. Beijing has become increasingly intolerant of signs of dissent in semi-autonomous Hong Kong since massive pro-democracy rallies in 2014 brought parts of the city to a standstill and led to the emergence of activists demanding independence from China. Hong Kong has rights unseen on the mainland, including freedom of expression, but there are concerns those liberties are now under threat from a repressive Beijing and a loyalist local government.

North Korea appeals to China for economic help as it reopens radio channel with the South

Posted: 01 Jul 2018 04:29 AM PDT

North Korea appeals to China for economic help as it reopens radio channel with the SouthNorth and South Korea reopened a maritime communication channel on Sunday, with vessels from the two countries making radio contact for the first time in a decade, South Korea's Defence Ministry said in a statement. A North Korean patrol boat responded immediately when the South Korean Navy contacted it via an international radio channel at 9 am Sunday in the western sea, normalizing the maritime communication channel for the first time in 10 years, according to the ministry. The move showed the two Koreas were "taking practical steps" to uphold agreements made on April 27 when their leaders decided to defuse military tensions in a gradual manner, an official from the ministry said. It was also on Sunday reported that Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, has appealed to China's Xi Jinping to help end sanctions against Pyongyang following his landmark summit with US President Donald Trump. Kim made the request during his third meeting with Mr Xi in Beijing last month, and the Chinese president promised to do his "utmost" to satisfy it, the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper said. "We are feeling great pain due to economic sanctions. Now that we have concluded the US-North Korea summit in success, I want (China) to work toward early lifting of the sanctions," Kim reportedly told Mr Xi, according to the newspaper. Kim chose Beijing - his main economic patron and diplomatic protector - for his first official foreign trip in March and met Mr Xi again in May in the northeastern port city of Dalian. Timeline of Kim Jong-un in Beijing In recent months the Cold War-era allies have sought to repair ties strained by Pyongyang's nuclear tests and Beijing's support of subsequent UN sanctions. Kim asked Mr Xi to help ease the sanctions that have crippled North Korea's economy, and urged China to back Pyongyang in its denuclearisation talks with Washington, the report said. Mr Xi in turn told Kim he "actively supports North Korea's reform and opening-up and will proactively cooperate with issues associated with the efforts", according to the Yomiuri. He also urged North Korea to "continue (its) consultations with China" as it negotiates with the United States, the report said.
