No country for migrant stowaways caught on ferry between Ukraine and Turkey Posted: 14 Sep 2017 11:13 AM PDT By Julie Astrid Thomsen COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Twelve migrants, apparently from North Africa, have been sailing to and fro on a Danish passenger ferry between Istanbul and Odessa for the last seven weeks locked in four cabins, with no country willing to take them. According to the Danish DFDS ferry operator, Turkey and Ukraine both refuse to accept the men, who have been violent and threatening suicide. "There has been a tendency to violence and aggressions and they have threatened to jump overboard... so there is no alternative to locking them inside the cabins," a DFDS spokesman told Reuters on Thursday. |

New Yorker Releases Cover It Would Have Run If Hillary Clinton Had Won Posted: 13 Sep 2017 06:50 PM PDT Ten months after Donald Trump won the presidency, The New Yorker has released its cover for a postelection issue that would have run if Hillary Clinton had claimed the White House. Titled "The First," the cover from artist Malika Favre was published by the site on Wednesday following the release of Clinton's new memoir and New Yorker editor David Remnick's interview with the former secretary of state. Instead, the magazine ran an image by artist Bob Staake called "The Wall," alluding to Trump's campaign promises to dramatically curb immigration and build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. |

Trump blocks Chinese acquisition of US semiconductor firm Posted: 13 Sep 2017 10:07 PM PDT President Donald Trump on Wednesday blocked attempts by a Chinese state-owned firm to acquire an American semiconductor manufacturer on national security concerns, drawing a rebuke from Beijing. The acquisition of Lattice Semiconductor Corporation, a publicly-traded Oregon company, by Chinese-owned Canyon Bridge Fund could endanger the US government's use of sensitive products the company produces, the Treasury Department said in a statement. The Trump administration has adopted an aggressive stance towards China on trade and national security matters, launching wide-ranging investigations into the national security ramifications of Beijing's trade in aluminum and steel. |

U.S. top court hands win to Republicans over Texas voting maps Posted: 12 Sep 2017 07:01 PM PDT By Lawrence Hurley WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An ideologically divided U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday handed a win to Republicans in Texas by putting on hold rulings that said electoral districts drawn by state lawmakers discriminated against minority voters. On a 5-4 vote, with the court's conservatives in the majority and the liberal justices dissenting, the court in a brief order blocked two different lower court decisions that found fault with both congressional districts and state legislative districts drawn by the Republican-controlled state legislature. In August, a federal court in Texas struck down two Republican-drawn congressional districts saying they were discriminatory and ordering new maps to be drawn ahead of elections in 2018. |

Flooded streets and shredded trees: Hurricane Irma's wrath in Florida Posted: 13 Sep 2017 08:32 AM PDT Two days after Hurricane Irma engulfed the entire state of Florida with deadly winds and rains, residents are only beginning to assess the damage in the storm's wake. Though many agreed Irma could have been far worse, a wide swath of the state remained without power on Tuesday. And some communities near Naples and Fort Myers, Fla., remained underwater as local rivers and waterways were swelled to capacity from rain. At the same time, area residents continued to face a major fuel shortage, as gas stations slowly reopened.

Indian bullet train met with criticism as Modi celebrates with Japanese PM Posted: 14 Sep 2017 04:19 AM PDT Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe laid the foundation stone of a £14.4bn high-speed train project in his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi's western home state of Gujarat on Thursday. Funded largely by a loan from Japan, the bullet train is expected to reduce the time of the 310-mile long journey between Gujarat's largest town of Ahmedabad and the port city of Mumbai to less than three hours, which currently takes eight. The 750-seat train travels at a speed of 217mph, more than twice the maximum speed of any Indian Rail locomotive, is scheduled to run from mid-August 2022 to mark the country's 75th Independence Day anniversary. Indian Rail officials said the major portion of the train's route would be elevated, except for a 4.3 mile stretch under the sea. Mr Abe and Mr Modi visit Ahmedabad Credit: HANDOUT/AFP/Getty Images "This enterprise will launch a revolution in Indian railways and speed up India's journey into the future" Mr Modi said, adding that it will be an engine of economic transformation for the country. But political allies of Mr Modi's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), opposition leaders, analysts and economists strongly disagree. They question the necessity of the bullet train project at a time when money is desperately needed for other projects that have been starved of resources. "We are getting a bullet train without asking for it and do not know exactly what problems this will solve," said the Shiv Sena, the BJP's ultra Right-Wing ally in the federal government, that politically controls Mumbai. "Modi's dream is not of the common man, but of the rich" the party declared, adding the bullet train is being introduced at the cost of the cash-strapped and broken down local rail network. Founded by the Colonial administration in 1853, Indian Railway is the world's third largest network and transports 23 million people every day. Indian commuters at a railway station in New Delhi Credit: PEDRO UGARTE/AFP/Getty Images Currently, however, it is broke due to decades-long recurring losses spawned by inefficiency and corruption. Senior officials admit Indian Railway barely has enough money to pay for itself, let alone invest in modernisation and safety measures, resulting in frequent accidents. The federal Railway Ministry recently told parliament that over 800 people had died in around 450 accidents between 2013 and 2017 due to poor maintenance, outdated rolling stock, corroded rail lines and bridges dating back to colonial times. Roughly 15,000 people a year were run over by speeding trains while crossing rail tracks, and around 3,000 of them were hit on Mumbai's busy suburban network, which transports over seven million commuters. "The big question that will not go away, is whether the same investment on upgrading the entire Indian Railway network would be more economically beneficial, than a single, high cost bullet train project," said economic and political analyst Mohan Guruswamy. |
