NASA to announce exciting news about ocean planets this week Posted: 11 Apr 2017 06:01 PM PDT NASA makes exciting discoveries about the universe and nearby planets on a regular basis, but the past few months have produced a particularly steady stream of really awesome news about exoplanets, the history of Mars, and the possibility of life outside of Earth. Now, NASA wants to talk about water. More specifically, the agency is planning a news conference for Thursday, April 13th, to reveal "new results about ocean worlds," and if you're one of the many who is waiting for the day where humanity discovers evidence of living creatures not from our planet, you should be paying attention. NASA will be using the event to talk about new discoveries made by the Cassini spacecraft as well as the always reliable Hubble Space Telescope. "These new discoveries will help inform future ocean world exploration," NASA says in its press release announcing the upcoming event, adding that the scientist panel will also talk more about the anticipated Europa Clipper mission which will send hardware to Jupiter's frozen moon. Ocean worlds are particularly interesting to astronomers searching for life outside of Earth because the presence of ice and water is a great indicator that a planet can support, or perhaps once supported, some form of life. That makes lots of sense, since life on Earth is thought to have originated in the ocean before evolution pushed it onto land and eventually into the skies. The conference is set to take place on Thursday, April 13th, at 2 pm EDT, and will be streamed live on both the NASA TV website and its YouTube channel.

In the photo, Saffiyah Khan is seen standing up to EDL leader Ian Crossland during the far-right group's demo in Birmingham on Saturday. Moments before the photo was taken — by Press Association photographer Joe Giddens — Khan had stepped in when members of the EDL surrounded a young Muslim woman. SEE ALSO: British protesters think they've kept Trump out for a few more months Days after the photo was taken, Khan has met woman she defended, Saira Zafar, for the first time, and the two shared an embrace in a video by the Guardian. Zafar explains that she had planned to stand towards the back carrying a placard stating "no to Islamophobia, no to war." But, EDL members at the rally began shouting racist abuse at her, like "you don't belong in this country" and "go back to where you came from." People also placed Islamophobic banners and EDL flags over her face and head. In the video, she thanked Khan for stepping in. "It's very important to have solidarity and to show that if something happens to this person, they're not on their own," says Zafar.

France's Le Pen hits nerve over WWII roundup of Jews Posted: 10 Apr 2017 11:21 AM PDT Far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen has stirred up deep emotions just two weeks ahead of the election by saying that today's France is not responsible for the rounding up of Jews during World War II. Le Pen said Sunday that "I don't think France is responsible for the Vel d'Hiv," referring to the roundup and deportation of more than 13,000 Jews from a Paris cycling track ordered by Nazi officers in 1942. For many -- notably Le Pen's chief rival for the presidency Emmanuel Macron -- the remarks were an instant reminder of the candidate's anti-Semitic, negationist father, while also pricking France's fraught conscience over its wartime role.

U.S.-backed forces push back Islamic State in Raqqa campaign - officials Posted: 11 Apr 2017 07:04 AM PDT By John Davison BEIRUT (Reuters) - U.S.-backed forces fighting Islamic State in Syria advanced to within 2 km (1 mile) of a key stronghold near the jihadist group's de facto capital of Raqqa on Tuesday, and a counter-attack by the militants was repulsed, officials said. The multi-phased campaign by the Syria Democratic Forces (SDF), backed by air strikes and military advisers from a U.S.-led coalition, ultimately aims to oust Islamic State from Raqqa. Officials have given different estimates for how long the campaign will take, and the assault on Raqqa itself appears to have been delayed, after one high-ranking military official said it would begin at the start of April.

US strike wiped out fifth of Assad air force, Mattis says Posted: 10 Apr 2017 07:11 PM PDT The US strike on a Syrian air base destroyed a fifth of the Damascus regime's remaining warplanes, Pentagon chief Jim Mattis said Monday as Washington fired a fresh salvo of warnings at President Bashar al-Assad. The public assessment of Friday's missile strike and the forceful rhetoric came as G7 ministers met in Italy to send a "clear and coordinated" message to Russia over its support for Damascus. The United States on Friday blasted 59 Tomahawk missiles at the Shayrat air base near Homs, which the Pentagon said Assad's jets had used to launch a deadly chemical attack on rebel-held Idlib province.

The LAPD just got the world’s first hybrid cop car, and it’s fast Posted: 10 Apr 2017 05:00 PM PDT As gas-only vehicles gradually give up some of their kingdom to electric and hybrid cars, it's only a matter of time before service vehicles get in on the action, too. We've already seen green alternatives to gas-guzzling semi trucks and cargo vans, but police pursuit vehicles are a specialized case that just hasn't been able to go hybrid — that is, until now. And who better to help the LAPD go green than the company responsible for some of the most popular police cars of all time, Ford. Ford, makers of the most iconic cop car of all time, the Crown Victoria, just showed off its very first "pursuit-rated" hybrid car, which is joining the LAPD's fleet of service vehicles. The car, which has been rather haphazardly named the Ford Police Responder Hybrid Sedan, is a step above the Ford Fusion upon which it is based thanks to upgrades to the suspension, tires, interior, and suspension. The car gets its get-up-and-go from a 2.0-liter four cylinder gas engine pared with an electric motor and 1.4-kilowatt rechargeable battery. It can reach 60 mph from a stand still in just 5.8 seconds, which is the same or better than many other production car police variants, including the Crown Victoria. However, due to its hybrid powertrain, it'll get much, much better gas mileage, which the EPA estimates at around 38 miles per gallon, or about twice the fuel efficiency as the current law enforcement workhorse. The Responder isn't a one-off commitment for the LAPD, though, as the department has pledged to purchase 300 of Ford's hybrid and electric plug-in vehicles by 2020.

U.S., EU rebuke Hungary over 'anti-Soros' education law Posted: 11 Apr 2017 07:55 AM PDT By Marton Dunai and Gabriela Baczynska BUDAPEST/BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Hungary faced criticism from Washington and Brussels on Tuesday over a new law they believe targets a Budapest university founded by U.S. financier George Soros that is viewed as a bastion of independent thinking in eastern Europe. The top U.S. diplomat in the region said the impact of the legislation on the Central European University (CEU) was a concern, while the European Union's executive Commission said it would be the subject of a debate on Wednesday. Domestic opponents of the new law, which on Sunday triggered some of the largest demonstrations against Prime Minister Viktor Orban's seven-year rule, consider it part of a wider crackdown on dissent and a political drift towards Russia.

United's Yelp page is getting mercilessly slaughtered right now Posted: 11 Apr 2017 03:32 PM PDT When complaining about a company on social media just isn't enough, the internet's next move is usually a swift jab at its permanent internet reputation, which comes in the form of a flurry of 1-star Yelp reviews.  So naturally, as the internet collectively throws shade, hate, and disappointment at United after videos emerged of a man being forcibly removed from a United flight, the company's Yelp page started to receive a barrage of angry reviews from customers.  SEE ALSO: Restaurant owner won't let scathing Yelp review get away with 'alternative facts' While United has multiple Yelp pages for its many hubs, the page for its location at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, where the incident took place, is receiving the most backlash. Image: Screenshot, YelpRead Vlad G.'s review of United Airlines on Yelp "I am a loyal customer of United and am shocked and outraged," one customer wrote. He ended his review with a message to United. "I (or my family) will never fly united again!" Read Darshan S.'s review of United Airlines on Yelp Read Vivi C.'s review of United Airlines on Yelp Making matters worse, Yelp reviewers are allowed to upload their own photos alongside the review, so people are uploading screenshots from the incident while simultaneously bashing the company.  Image: screenshot/Yelp Image: screenshot/YelpDespite the negative reviews, it doesn't seem as though United cares too much about what anyone says about its company on Yelp, because its page is still listed as unclaimed.  Currently, the Yelp page is listed at 1.5 stars out of 5 with 768 reviews. Regardless, the company's Yelp score hasn't been the only thing that has dropped. The company's stock also took a dive on Tuesday following outrage from the video.
