US top court to consider use of gas on death row inmate

Posted: 30 Apr 2018 10:56 AM PDT

US top court to consider use of gas on death row inmateThe US Supreme Court agreed Monday to rule on whether the state of Missouri should use gas as an alternative to a lethal injection to execute a convicted murderer-rapist with a rare congenital disease. The top US court has halted Russell Bucklew's execution twice before, most recently last month after his lawyers argued that a lethal injection could cause intense suffering. The US Constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishment, and a series of botched executions with lethal injections has spurred debate over the constitutionality of this most common method for putting inmates to death in the United States.

Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu says he has 'conclusive proof' Iran lied about its nuclear weapons programme

Posted: 30 Apr 2018 04:05 PM PDT

Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu says he has 'conclusive proof' Iran lied about its nuclear weapons programmeIsrael has accused Iran of lying to the world about its nuclear weapons programme both before and since the 2015 nuclear deal after Israeli intelligence stole 100,000 files from a secret "atomic archive" in Tehran.  Benjamin Netanyahu, an arch-opponent of the nuclear deal, made the dramatic public accusation in Tel Aviv less than two weeks before Donald Trump is due to announce whether he is pulling the US out of the agreement.  The Israeli prime minister said that Israeli spies had obtained "half a tonne" of secret documents which show that Iran's leaders never gave a full account of their past nuclear activities as required by the Iran deal and were maintaining the knowhow to build a bomb in the future.  "The nuclear deal is based on lies. It is based on Iranian lies and Iranian deception," Mr Netanyahu said.  "This is a terrible deal which should never have been concluded and in a few days' time President Trump will make his decision on what to do with the nuclear deal. I'm sure he will do the right thing. The right thing for the US, the right thing for Israel, and the right thing for the peace of the world."   Benjamin Netanyahu speaks during a news conference at the Ministry of Defence in Tel Aviv Credit: AMIR COHEN/REUTERS Mr Netanyahu's presentation, made in front of a large screen at the Israeli defence ministry, seemed designed to convince Mr Trump to follow his instincts and pull the US out of the agreement ahead of a May 12 deadline.  Mr Trump said in Washington that the Israeli presentation "really showed that I've been 100 per cent right". "That is just not an acceptable situation," he said. "They [Iran] are not sitting back idly, they're setting off missiles." Mr Trump refused to say what his final decision would be but said he was open to negotiating "a better deal". Iran and other members of the P5+1 bloc of world powers have said it is not possible to renegotiate the agreement or strike a new pact.   Mr Netanyahu's talk served as a counterweight to a furious diplomatic effort by Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel, who both visited the White House last week to implore Mr Trump not to scrap the agreement.   Con Coughlin: Israel's only aim is to persuade Trump to scrap the Iran nuclear deal - and it could work Britain supports remaining in the agreement and Theresa May spoke to both her German and French counterparts about the situation over the weekend.  Mr Netanyahu said the files had already been shared with the US and that American intelligence "can vouch for its authenticity". Israel plans to share it with other Western countries and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN nuclear watchdog.    Javad Zarif, the Iranian foreign minister, mocked Mr Netanyahu's speech before it even began. "The boy who can't stop crying wolf is at it again," Mr Zarif said. "You can only fool some of the people so many times. BREAKING: The boy who can't stop crying wolf is at it again. Undeterred by cartoon fiasco at UNGA. You can only fool some of the people so many times. pic.twitter.com/W7saODfZDK— Javad Zarif (@JZarif) April 30, 2018 Mr Netanyahu said the 55,000 pages and 55,000 electronic documents had been secreted out of an archive in the Shorabad district of southern Tehran. "Few Iranians knew where it was, very few, and also a few Israelis," he said.  Mr Netanyahu said Israeli spies had pulled off one of their "biggest-ever intelligence achievements" by getting the files out of Tehran but gave no details about how they ended up in Israeli hands.  The files  were from "Project Amad", which Mr Netanyahu said was a secret Iranian programme to develop nuclear weapons. Iran's leaders have said consistently that they did not want a nuclear bomb and that their nuclear intentions were entirely peaceful.   Benjamin Netanyahu presents his evidence Credit: Sky News Project Amad was shelved in 2003 but elements of it secretly continued and remain functional to this day under the direction of the same Iranian scientists who conducted the original research, Mr Netanyahu said.  He charged that Iran had failed to "come clean" about its past nuclear activities in 2015, after the nuclear deal was signed, when Iran was required by the agreement to tell the IAEA about all its previous research.  Iranian officials "denied the existence of a coordinated programme aimed at the development of a nuclear device and specifically denied the existence of the Amad Plan", the IAEA wrote in its December 2015 assessment.    Mr Netanyahu said that Iran was preserving its nuclear knowhow, which could be applied again in 2026 when parts of the nuclear deal expire and Iran is allowed to return to largescale enrichment of uranium.  Mr Netanyahu did not present evidence that Iran was currently violating the terms of the nuclear deal, for example by secretly enriching uranium now. FAQ | Iran nuclear talks The IAEA has said consistently that Iran is abiding by the terms of the agreement. since it went into force in January 2016. It last certified Iran's compliance in February of this year.  Senior US and Israeli military officers have also said in recent weeks that the Iran deal may be flawed but is achieving its central purpose of stopping Iranian progress towards a nuclear weapon.  "Right now the agreement, with all its faults, is working and is putting off realisation of the Iranian nuclear vision by 10 to 15 years," said General Gadi Eisenkot, the head of the Israeli military, in an interview on March 30. General Joseph Votel, the top US commander in the Middle East, said on March 14 that the deal "addresses one of the principle threats that we deal with from Iran". The announcement was in character for Mr Netanyahu, who has a history of theatrical flourishes when it comes to announcements on Iran.  During a speech before a security conference in Munich in February, the Israeli leader brandished a piece of an Iranian drone shot down by Israel's air force.  Six years ago, he brought a cartoon poster of a bomb to the United Nations as he warned against allowing Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon.

A look back at the work of slain AFP photojournalist Shah Marai killed in KabulAgence France-Presse's chief photographer in Kabul, Shah Marai, who was killed covering a suicide bombing on Monday, was a charismatic, courageous journalist who was dedicated to reporting on Afghanistan's wrenching conflict. The 22-year veteran of the agency leaves behind two wives and six children, including his only daughter, born earlier this month — an event that brought him great joy and was celebrated with cake at the Kabul bureau just over a week ago. Marai's versatility and easy camaraderie was demonstrated in a message moments before the second attack, in which he reassured an AFP video colleague who was stuck in traffic and could not reach the scene.

The world's oldest recorded spider built herself a hole, then just stayed there till age 43

Posted: 30 Apr 2018 06:17 AM PDT

The world's oldest recorded spider built herself a hole, then just stayed there till age 43Just how many walking sticks would an elderly spider require? SEE ALSO: 5 common groceries made from microorganisms Researchers in Australia monitored what is most likely the world's oldest spider on record, who died at age 43, outstripping the previous record-holder, a 28-year-old tarantula. The lead researcher, Leanda Mason, said of the spider in question, "to our knowledge this is the oldest spider ever recorded, and her significant life has allowed us to further investigate the trapdoor spider's behaviour and population dynamics," according to a press release. A sedentary creature, the female Gaius villosus trapdoor spider builds itself a tunnel in the ground and stays there, seldom wandering too far from its hidey-hole. Sounds pretty ideal to be honest. Some people online were confused as to how the researchers knew the spider's age. HOW DO YOU KNOW IT WAS THE OLDEST SPIDER, HAVE YOU ASKED ALL THE OTHERS THEIR AGE? https://t.co/b5ls7v4p31 — Christine Best (@tinajaneb33) April 28, 2018 You just have to look it up on the web. — Ryan Evans (@DoNothing69) April 30, 2018 Spider census. Every spider took it. Although apparently a few of them lied about their age to get into bars, allegedly. — matthew marsden (@matthewdmarsden) April 29, 2018 Named "Number 16" (affectionate pet-names were notably absent from the paper) the female trapdoor spider was first documented as a spiderling in 1974 by a study initiated by Barbara York Main. The study monitored individuals using tagged pegs put next to their burrows. Trapdoor spiders never re-use the disused burrow of another spider, so the researchers can be fairly confident that they were monitoring the same spider for 43 years. Number 16 probably didn't die of natural causes. On Oct. 31, 2016, the researchers found that her burrow had been pierced by a parasitic wasp. Her burrow fell into disrepair thereafter, meaning that poor Number 16 was probably eaten from the inside out by a spider wasp larva. What a way to go.

EU considering 'freeze' on subsidies for illiberal member states

Posted: 29 Apr 2018 04:42 AM PDT

EU considering 'freeze' on subsidies for illiberal member statesEU member states that fail to live up the European Union's democratic values could find parts of their EU subsidies being "frozen" until they mend their ways, The Telegraph understands. Under proposals to be unveiled in Brussels this week by Guenther Oettinger, the EU's budget commissioner, Eastern EU states like Poland and Hungary could feel a financial squeeze if they were deemed to have failed to live up to the founding values of the EU. The moves comes after pressure from liberal groups in the European Parliament and leading western powers like France and Germany, who want to find a mechanism to put pressure on recalcitrant member states. "The precise details are still to be worked out, but the proposal will include the temporary freezing of funds in order to motivate a change of behaviour among states," said an EU source briefed on the document. Poland and Hungary are both major recipients of EU 'structural funds' which are designed to narrow the gap between rich and poor member states, each receiving €5.5bn and €2.7bn respectively a year. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is on a collision course with the EU after his emphatic election victory Credit: REUTERS/Bernadett Szabo Sources said the threat to freeze access to funding for projects could also include agricultural subsidies, but would not include student programmes like Erasmus to avoid punishing citizens for the misdeeds of their governments. Reports also suggest that new formulas for calculating payments will mean that southern EU states, who tend to adhere closer to liberal values, will receive higher payments when the next 7-year budget cycle begins in 2021. The decision to link EU payments to 'good behaviour' is highly controversial and risks deepening the stand-off between western Europe and the populist governments in Warsaw and Budapest. Tensions have deepened over the last two years after eastern EU countries refused to accept refugee resettlement quotas following the 2015 migrant crisis, and Poland introduced judicial reforms judged anti-democratic by the EU. The recent re-election campaign of the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, which was marred by anti-semitic rhetoric, corruption scandals and warnings from OSCE election monitors about a lack of free media, only deepened concern in Brussels.   Poland is currently battling Brussels over an 'Article 7' disciplinary procedure for breaches of EU commitments to maintain the 'rule of law', but is protected from serious punishment by a Hungarian promise to veto any sanctions. EU sources said the plan to explicitly link EU payments to democratic standards was in part driven by a French and German desire to have a less draconian and more flexible mechanism for pressuring states that were falling short. They added that the Commission would have to negotiate a system for deciding when payments would be frozen - but leading western states, like Germany, want it based on majority voting to avoid the kind of protective vetoes that have neutered the Article 7 process. FAQ | Article 7 of the Treaty of the EU However an Eastern EU diplomatic source said that any attempt to connect funds to the "proper functioning of the judicial system in a member state" would be a matter of serious concern, raising questions about fairness and due process. "Who would assess the state of the judicial system and on what grounds? Wouldn't there be a risk of political pressure and arbitrariness in such an assessment? Our position will depend on the shape of the proposal, but the budget must be governed by the law, not by arbitrariness," the source said. Liberal forces have become increasingly agitated that states like Poland, Hungary but also Bulgaria and Romania - who joined in 2007 - are flouting EU norms with impunity, revelling in what Mr Orban has called "illiberal democracy". When former Soviet-bloc states joined the EU in 2004, they signed up to values founded on "freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities." Now Mr Orban has talked openly about pursuing the "Hungarian model" which contests western interpretations of the EU's statement on values. Guy Verhofstadt, the leader of the liberal ALDE grouping in the European Parliament and a trenchant critic of Mr Orban, welcomed the Commission proposal. "It is grotesque for EU tax-payers' money to be spent propping up the vanity projects of illiberal ruling elites who politicise their own judiciaries, erode democratic safeguards and systematically attempt to undermine NGOs and the free press," he told The Telegraph. "From 2020 onwards, it is essential that cohesion funds are made conditional on full compliance with the rule of law and our European values of democracy and freedom." A spokesman for the Commission declined to comment on the forthcoming proposal which will cover the EU budget for 2021-2027, which has already been complicated by the €10bn-€15bn a year shortfall left by the UK's departure from the EU. Reports suggest that the Commission will propose a budget between 1.1 and 1.2 percent of the bloc's gross national income - an increase from the current 1.0 percent which results in a seven-year 1 trillion euros budget.
