| Prince Philip sends personal apology to victims of Sandringham car crash Posted: 27 Jan 2019 10:48 AM PST  The Duke of Edinburgh has personally written to the two women injured in the car crash he was involved in on the Sandringham estate to say he is "deeply sorry." The 97-year-old wrote to Ellie Townsend, the driver of the Kia Carens that collided with his Land Rover as he pulled out of a sideroad, and her passenger, Emma Fairweather. It follows mounting criticism of the way both Buckingham Palace and the police handled the fallout from the crash. The Duke was pictured back at the wheel without a seatbelt just two days later, which was deemed "insensitive and inconsiderate" to the victims. In his letter to Ms Fairweather, the Duke admitted he had "failed to see the car coming" and blamed the bright winter sun that was low in the sky. He wished her a "speedy recovery from a very distressing experience" and said he felt "very contrite about the consequences." He admitted he was left "somewhat shaken" after the accident, which resulted in him having to be pulled through the sunroof of his vehicle after it flipped onto its side, and explained that he had been advised to return to Sandringham House by a police officer shortly after the collision. Emma Fairweather, who was injured in a car crash involving the Duke of Edinburgh Credit: PA The Duke is understood to have given a written statement to police investigating the January 17 incident and officers are considering whether there is enough evidence to charge him with careless driving. In his later, dated January 21, he wrote: "I would like you to know how very sorry I am for my part in the accident at the Babingley cross-roads. "I have been across that crossing any number of times and I know very well the amount of traffic that uses that main road. "It was a bright sunny day and at about three in the afternoon, the sun was low over the Wash. "In other words, the sun was shining low over the main road. In normal conditions I would have no difficulty in seeing traffic coming from the Dersingham direction, but I can only imagine that I failed to see the car coming." The note, thought to have been hand delivered and seen by the Sunday Mirror, was signed "Yours sincerely, Philip." He also sent similarly "personal letters" to the passersby who helped pull him to safety from the wreckage. Prince Philip car crash scene near Sandringham Photo Ms Fairweather, 46, who broke her wrist in the January 17 accident, had previously criticised the Duke for driving his replacement Land Rover on public roads so soon after the accident and complained that she had received no personal communication from him. But she said she was "chuffed" with the letter and described it as the act of "human kindness" that she had wanted. Ms Townsend. the 28-year-old driver of the car, is understood to have been left shaken by the experience after fearing for her nine-month-old baby son who was in the back seat. Buckingham Palace said Philip was "fully complying with the police investigation". Norfolk police said: "The collision investigation is ongoing and we will not comment any further at this time." If found to be at fault, the Duke is likely be offered a driver awareness course, with a lesson to improve their motoring skills considered more in the public interest than a court case.

| Democrats and Republicans try to outlaw future government shutdowns after Trump backs down over wall funding Posted: 27 Jan 2019 08:31 AM PST  Was this the shutdown to end all shutdowns? The toll exacted on government operations and federal employees by the record 35-day stalemate — not to mention the political costs to those in the White House and on Capitol Hill — was so punishing that it is giving momentum to a long-standing call to prohibit the government disruptions that have become a regular facet of Washington hardball. "Shutting down the government should be as off-limits in budget negotiations as chemical warfare is in real warfare," Senator Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn, said on Friday.

The recommendations, subject to amendment by government and parliament, are intended to help Germany make up lost ground in meeting its emissions targets.

| We can expect a coal-free Germany by 2038 Posted: 27 Jan 2019 12:44 PM PST  It took hours, but Germany finally agreed on a plan to close its coal power plants and rely heavily on renewable energy sources. The country will shut down 84 coal-based power plants -- that's all of them -- by 2038 a government group decided on Saturday. The commission convened in Berlin to map out how to move away from coal. Fossil fuels still account for about 40 percent of Germany's power, according to The Guardian, despite recent gains in renewable energy sources. The country also plans to move away from nuclear energy by 2022. Once it gets there, renewable energy will be the main source of power. The 2038 goal will cost $45 billion, according to the Los Angeles Times. The decision comes ahead of an energy report from the German coal commission to be released on Feb. 1. Around the world Saturday, climate change activists held die-ins and other protests to spur government action like Germany's plan. > .@XRebelDC, @XR_NYC, @XRebellionLA & many other #ConscientiousProtectors across the US are rising up today to demand that government acts on the climate & ecological crisis:https://t.co/dVLcl1jfsI #ExtinctionRebellion @ExtinctionRebel#RebellionDay > > ✊✊✊✊ > > ️ > pic.twitter.com/J9US30UNOj > > -- Extinction Rebellion (@ExtinctionR) January 26, 2019 A look at U.S. coal consumption shows we have a ways to go.

| Don't tell cancer patients they are 'brave', says Macmillan following poll Posted: 27 Jan 2019 04:01 PM PST  Loved-ones should not tell cancer sufferers they are brave because this risks putting them under pressure to appear positive, Macmillan Cancer Support has said. Six out of 10 people with cancer do not want to be described as a fighter, while many object to the suggestion they are battling the disease, a survey suggests, a new survey by the charity has found. The poll found many felt that battling or fighting words were inappropriate to describe them - but equally they do not want to be called a hero. Many prefer factual language to be used to describe themselves and the disease, rather than being considered cancer stricken or a cancer victim, the results suggest. The survey of more than 2,000 people who have or have had cancer found that words such as hero, cancer victim and cancer stricken were inappropriate as they were disempowering (42 per cent), isolating (24 per cent) and put people under pressure to be positive (30 per cent). People with cancer most hated being described as cancer stricken, followed by being a hero and then a cancer victim. When it comes to death, 64 per cent said people should be described as having died from cancer, with others preferring passed away. Meanwhile more than four in ten thought it was inappropriate to say someone had lost their battle while 37 per cent objected to the idea they had lost their fight. Most said this was because it implied somebody was defeated by cancer while many thought it undermined a person's strength and courage. Karen Roberts, chief nursing officer at Macmillan, said: "We know that there is no such thing as a 'typical' person with cancer, so it follows that people will prefer different ways of talking about it. "We hear from people every day who face this problem, that at its worst could even stop people getting the support they need. "By drawing attention to this we want to encourage more people to talk about the words they prefer to hear, and stop the damage that can be caused to people's wellbeing and relationships."

| Let one hero's quest to pet 100 dogs at a dog show inspire you Posted: 27 Jan 2019 11:56 AM PST  A dog show is already a magical land where dreams come true, but one innovative attendee made a good thing even better. Sally Kuchar arrived at the Golden Gate Kennel Club Dog Show on Saturday with one goal: Pet 100 dogs. It was an optimal place for such an undertaking. The Golden Gate show is a bench show, which means that the dogs hang on on assigned benches (and are available for meet and greets) while they're not being shown. "Folks are encouraged to walk around and familiarize themselves with the breeds, and petting is very, very encouraged," Kuchar explained via email. So Kuchar made the rounds. Throughout the day, she took 100 videos of 100 dogs, each better (or good-er, if you're still into that lingo) than the last. > I'm at a dog show.

A few highlights: Kuchar said that although she's been to the Golden Gate show five times before, this is the first time she's taken on the 100 dog challenge. "I like doing public challenges because it holds me accountable," she said. As for her favorite dog, that's obviously #100. (It's her own dog, Skippy.) But she did also enjoy #64. "We just got along really well," she said. And for the most part, the dog owners were cool with Kuchar's wholesome project. She only had one weird run-in: "I was having a great conversation with a bulldog's owner and did let her know that I was trying to pet 100 dogs," she said. "She looked at me quizzically and changed the subject." She'll understand once she sees Kuchar's Twitter thread. ## WATCH: This robot delivery dog can bring your parcel right to your doorstep

| Nick Clegg swaps Putney townhouse for £7million California mansion ahead of new Facebook role Posted: 26 Jan 2019 08:33 AM PST  Former deputy Prime Minister Sir Nick Clegg has relocated to a £7million home in California as he prepares to start his new executive role at Facebook, it has been revealed. The former Lib Dem leader, 52, and his wife, lawyer Miriam Gonzalez Durantez, 50, bought the "luxurious" new home in December. The five-bedroom property, worth a reported fee of $9million (£7million) stands in almost an acre of land, and was described by its estate agent as "a timeless classic". The house boasts a roomy kitchen with marble worktops and an island seating area, as well as a separate dining room and a library. Among the "luxurious amenities" for Sir Nick and his family to enjoy are a hot tub, a swimming pool, and a large patio with an outdoor log-burning fire. Nick Clegg and his wife Miriam Gonzalez Durantez Credit: Andrew Parsons / i-Images The sprawling home is situated in the Silicon Valley town of Atherton, near San Francisco, which was last year named "the most expensive zip code in the country" by Forbes magazine. And the area is just three miles away from Facebook HQ in Menlo Park, where Sir Nick will be working as Vice-President of Global Affairs. The couple have now moved into their new home with their three sons, aged 16, 14 and nine. Sir Nick is believed to have kept his townhouse in Putney in south-west London, reportedly worth £2million. His lavish new home is thought to reflect his new bumper pay packet, rumoured to be worth up to £7million including bonuses. Nick Clegg's five bedroom Californian mansion, which is worth a reported fee of $9million (£7million) Credit: Zillow.com Sir Nick's appointment in Octoberwas met with criticism, with some accusing him of hypocrisy owing to his previous scorn towards Facebook for paying too little tax. Less than three years ago, he described the social media giant's 'messianic Californian new-worldy-touchy-feely culture' as 'a little grating'. Sir Nick, who lost his Sheffield Hallam seat in the 2015 general election, can now count former Google chairman Eric Schmidt, and Facebook deputy Sheryl Sandberg, among his new neighbours. In an interview this month Ms Gonzalez Durantez said of the family's move to the US: "California is the more European of all the states. They are constantly looking to the future." This week she shared a picture on Instagram of a trip to the beach, writing: "It could be Dorset but it is the Pacific." Facebook declined to comment.
