EXCLUSIVE-Boeing software re-activated before Ethiopian crash -sourcesSEATTLE/PARIS, April 3 (Reuters) - Boeing anti-stall software on a doomed Ethiopian Airlines jet re-engaged and pushed the jet downwards after the pilots initially turned it off due to suspect data from an airflow sensor, two people familiar with the matter said. It was not immediately clear whether the crew chose to re-deploy the MCAS system, which was designed to push the nose of the 737 MAX down to prevent one kind of emergency but which is suspected of exacerbating a scenario linked to two crashes.

Erdogan's Golden Chance to Make Up to Markets May Not Last LongMonday's gains in the lira suggest some investors are betting he'll begin to adopt a more tempered approach after a setback at the polls, pointing to his reference to an "important reform agenda" on Sunday. Turkey's biggest cities turned against him for the first time since 1994 after his growth-at-all-cost leaning precipitated a run on the currency last year, dragging the economy into its first recession since the global financial crisis.

Pittsburgh City Council Approves Assault-Weapon Restrictions in Response to Synagogue Shooting

Posted: 02 Apr 2019 10:37 AM PDT

Pittsburgh City Council Approves Assault-Weapon Restrictions in Response to Synagogue ShootingThe Pittsburgh City Council on Tuesday passed a series of gun-control bills that were introduced in response to the mass shooting that claimed eleven lives at the city's Tree of Life Synagogue last year.The legislative package, which passed 6–3, prohibits the public use of assault-style rifles like the AR-15 used in the synagogue shooting, bans the use of armor-piercing ammunition and high-capacity magazines, and allows the authorities to temporarily seize the firearms of anyone determined to be dangerous."We're happy to take a stand," Councilman Corey O'Connor, who led the legislative effort, said after the bills passed. "It's going to be a difficult battle, but we are willing to fight it. People are starting to change their minds and be more open to some sort of gun control."Opponents of the legislation booed lawmakers after it was passed, and at least one man vowed to move to an area where his right to self-defense would not be infringed."My guns are not hurting anybody. I have no intent of hurting anybody," lifelong Pittsburgh resident Dennis Jordan told the Council. "I am not going to be allowed to own my guns because of this ordinance. I am ready to move out of this place. You just want to control people. You want to take away my right to protect people."> City council will shortly be voting on gun legislation this morning. We spoke to two members of the public with opposing views. Stay with @KDKA for updates. pic.twitter.com/L7nA6IRfwM> > -- Amy Wadas (@AmyWadas) April 2, 2019The legislation, which initially prohibited the possession of assault-style rifles outright, was weakened in order to make it more likely to survive the legal challenge sure to be brought by pro-Second Amendment activists. Those activists believe Pennsylvania state law, which prohibits municipalities from regulating the possession of guns and ammunition, is on their side."All of it's illegal. Pennsylvania preemption law says that no municipality, period, may in any manner regulate. And that's at the heart of what they're doing," Kim Stolfer, president and co-founder of Firearms Owners Against Crime, told CBS.The legislation was initially introduced days after a lone gunman opened fire inside the Tree of Life Synagogue on October 27, killing eleven and injuring seven in the deadliest attack on Jews in American history.Allegheny County district attorney Stephen Zappala Jr., a Democrat, told City Council members in January that, while he understood their motivation, the proposed legislation was unconstitutional.

Bernie Sanders campaign touts its diversity and fights 'the narrative of 2016'The leadership of Sen. Bernie Sanders's presidential campaign held a press call with reporters on Tuesday where they touted figures showing the diversity of their staff and supporters. On his way to losing the Democratic primary to Hillary Clinton in 2016, Sanders was dogged by the impression he was not popular with minorities and that many of his supporters were male "Bernie bros" who were hostile towards women. "The senator is really popular and supported by a diverse coalition despite the narrative that is put out there from time to time," Turner said on the call.


Colbert Mocks Trump’s ‘Oranges of the Investigation’ Gaffe

Posted: 02 Apr 2019 06:50 PM PDT

Colbert Mocks Trump's 'Oranges of the Investigation' GaffeCBSStephen Colbert was not about to let President Trump get away with repeatedly saying the word "oranges" instead of "origins." The president's comments came during an Oval Office press availability on Tuesday during which he completely reversed his position on the release of the full Mueller report. Last week, the president said it "wouldn't bother" him at all to make the report public, but now he said it would be "ridiculous" to "start this process all over again." Imitating Trump, the Late Show host said, "No obstruction, it says so right in the document. And if you try to see the document, I'm going to obstruct you." But it was Trump's "small slip of the brain" that came next that really caught Colbert's attention."I hope they now go and take a look at the oranges, the oranges of the, uh, investigation," Trump told reporters. "The beginnings, of that investigation." "Yes, sir!" Colbert replied. "We must take a look at the oranges of the investigation. I say it is high clementine we do so. The American people will not stangerine for it any longer. We can vitamin C right through the lies. We Tropi-can handle the juice." Then the host told his audience a knock-knock joke that ended with, "Orange you ashamed we have a president who can't pronounce origins?" Read more at The Daily Beast.Got a tip?

Three importers cut Iran oil shipments to zero: U.S. envoy

Posted: 02 Apr 2019 10:08 PM PDT

Three importers cut Iran oil shipments to zero: U.S. envoyThe United States reimposed sanctions on Iran after President Donald Trump last May withdrew the country from a 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and several world powers, accusing it of supporting terrorism and conflicts in Syria and Yemen. While the United States has set a goal of completely halting Iran's oil exports, it granted temporary import waivers to China, India, Greece, Italy, Taiwan, Japan, Turkey and South Korea to ensure low oil prices and no disruption to the global oil market. The Trump administration is currently in consultations with the importers ahead of a May 2 deadline when the waivers expire.

Pixel 4 leak suggests Google is already testing next-gen flagship prototypes

Posted: 03 Apr 2019 07:12 AM PDT

Pixel 4 leak suggests Google is already testing next-gen flagship prototypesGoogle is expected to launch a bunch of Pixel devices this year, including new "Pixel 3 Lite" models that should hit stores at some point in the coming months, as well as the more exciting Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL that are due to be released this fall. We saw a bunch of Pixel 4 leaks and renders in the past few weeks that teased an updated design for the upcoming Google flagships. The phones would pack a Galaxy S10-like hole-punch screen design, which would be a massive improvement over the current Pixel 3 design that's quite boring. Google, meanwhile, isn't afraid to openly discuss the existence of the Pixel 4 over on its Android Open Source Project (AOSP) site, and it's not even bothering to refer to the phone using a codename.A new comment on the AOSP site (via 9to5Google) has the following quote from a Googler:> The plan was to first deploy this on Pixel 3 and make sure that everything actually works. Then move on to Pixel 4 and so on. If I had a Pixel 4 device, I probably wouldn't have bothered with 4.9 in the first place.Here's a screenshot showing the same quote, which mentions the Pixel 4 by name three times:The comment indicates that early Pixel 4 phones are already out in the wild, with some Google developers already having access to prototype versions of the phone. This Googler says doesn't have a Pixel 4 device to test the fix he mentioned, suggesting that some of his colleagues do.The code change doesn't reveal any other details about the Pixel 4. But now that we know Pixel 4 prototypes actually exist, we wouldn't be surprised to see them leak months ahead of the phone's launch, which isn't expected until this coming October.


Ukraine's Tymoshenko says won't challenge vote results

Ukraine's Tymoshenko says won't challenge vote resultsUkraine's former prime minister Yuliya Tymoshenko on Tuesday denounced the results of a "rigged" vote that eliminated her from the presidential race, but said she would not urge street protests.

Chicago police call for state's attorney to resign in Smollett controversy

Chicago police call for state's attorney to resign in Smollett controversyAbout 300 people, including off-duty Chicago police officers, gathered at the building where Foxx's office is located in downtown Chicago, wearing "Foxx Must Go!" buttons and carrying signs reading "Resign now" and "Who let the Foxx in the henhouse." Smollett, who is black and gay, ignited a firestorm on social media by telling police on Jan. 29 that two apparent supporters of President Donald Trump struck him, put a noose around his neck and poured bleach over him while yelling racist and homophobic slurs on a Chicago street. The 36-year-old actor, best known for his role on the Twentieth Century Fox Television hip-hop drama "Empire," was charged in February with staging the incident himself and filing a false police report. In a stunning move on Tuesday, prosecutors dropped all charges against Smollett, angering police who had not been told of the decision ahead of time.

Reports suggest upcoming Apple iPhone models will have OLED screens, new sizes, bigger batteriesAs reported by Digitimes and CNBC, the 2020 iPhones will all have OLED displays in three new sizes from 5.42-inches to 6.67-inches while this year's upcoming lineup will use more powerful batteries with two-way wireless charging.

Digitimes sources further stated that the 5.42-inch model will come with either Samsung's Y-Octa or LG's TOE touch technology, both of which could provide the phone with a thinner display.

Nokia’s new X71 has a stellar design that rivals that of the Galaxy S10

Posted: 02 Apr 2019 02:17 PM PDT

Nokia's new X71 has a stellar design that rivals that of the Galaxy S10HMD Global's Nokia 9 PureView might be the best Nokia phone you can buy right now, but the device isn't necessarily perfect. The phone features a "classic" Nokia handset design, which means it has thicker bezels than most consumers want, and relies on last year's top Snapdragon processor to power its penta-lens camera.One of its biggest rivals is Samsung's Galaxy S10 -- a phone that features a hole-punch display design, as well as the latest Qualcomm processor. The S10, however, only features a triple-lens shooter on the back. But HMD just released a Nokia phone that looks a lot like the Galaxy S10 in terms of overall design. Sadly, the Nokia X71 is only selling in Taiwan for the time being, and it's not a flagship handset.The Nokia X71 features a 6.39-inch Full HD LCD with 19.3:9 aspect ratio, with the punch-hole camera placed on the top-left corner, similar to other punch-hole LCD phones from the competition, like Huawei and Samsung.The phone looks a lot like the Galaxy S10, but it's not quite a replica of Samsung's flagship. For starters, the front camera is placed in the opposite corner. Secondly, the display features a thicker bottom bezel, and the fingerprint sensor is placed on the back under the triple-lens camera, rather than under the screen.Other specs include a Snapdragon 660 processor, 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, microSD support, 48-megapixel main rear camera, 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, 5-megapixel depth-of-field lens, 16-megapixel selfie cam, 3,500 mAh battery with 18W fast-charging support, USB-C connectivity, 3.5mm headphone jack, and Android 9.0 Pie.It's unclear whether the Nokia X71 will ever be launched in Europe or the US, but the phone will cost NT$11,900, or around $385, in Taiwan when it goes on sale next week.

Chicago makes history electing Lori Lightfoot as first black woman mayorA former federal prosecutor, Lightfoot won 74 percent of the vote with nearly all precincts counted compared with 26 percent for Preckwinkle, a long-time local politician, to become Chicago's 56th mayor.

You created a movement for change," Lightfoot told hundreds of supporters at her election night party, promising to end corruption and make the city's streets safe again.

Further claims of inappropriate behavior put Joe Biden's 2020 presidential bid in doubt

Further claims of inappropriate behavior put Joe Biden's 2020 presidential bid in doubtTwo more women have claimed that Joe Biden inappropriately touched them, in a further blow to the former US Vice President said to be considering a bid for the White House.  Caitlyn Caruso, 22, told the New York Times on Tuesday that Mr Biden hugged her "just a little bit too long" when she was 19 at a University of Nevada event on sexual harassment.   According to the former student, the senior Democrat rested his hand on her thigh moments after Miss Caruso had shared a personal story of sexual assault.  She said: "It doesn't even really cross your mind that such a person would dare perpetuate harm like that". A second women, 59-year-old DJ Hill, also told the New York Times that Mr Biden had placed his hands on her shoulders and dropped them down her back at a 2012 campaign event in Minneapolis.  The new claims follow that of Amy Lappos, who said Mr Biden had rubbed noses with her, and Lucy Flores, who claimed Biden had kissed her on the back.  US President Donald Trump took a shot on Tuesday at Mr Biden, a possible Democratic rival in the 2020 race for the White House, mocking him over allegations of unwanted physical contact with women. In a speech to a fundraising dinner for the National Republican Congressional Committee, President Trump twice alluded to the allegations from two women that are hanging over Mr Biden as he weighs whether to enter the contest to become the Democratic candidate in November 2020 presidential elections.

Biden has said he did not believe he ever acted inappropriately, and his defenders have said he is known for hugging and being physically affectionate. In wide-ranging remarks that meandered for more than 80 minutes but often circled back to the 2020 race, Mr Biden was the only potential rival President Trump mentioned by name - a sign that he would view Mr Biden as a strong challenger, were he to enter and win the Democratic race. Joe Biden was vice president under President Barack Obama and had a long career in the Senate before that. He had been expected to announce his bid for the Democratic primary race this month and has led the large field of Democratic hopefuls in opinion polls. President Trump told the dinner, which raised $23 million for Republicans running for the House of Representatives, a story about wanting to kiss a general he met in Iraq who had promised an expedient end to a campaign against Islamic State militants in Syria.

I felt like Joe Biden," Mr Trump said, drawing laughter and applause. Earlier, he told the crowd - which was dotted with members of the House - that they would be "going into the war with some socialists" in the next election. "It looks like the only non-, sort of, heavy socialist is being taken care of pretty well by the socialists," Trump said. One of Biden's accusers has been a supporter of Senator Bernie Sanders, who has already entered the Democratic primary race, and whose views are to the left of Biden. "I was going to call him - I don't know him well - I was going to say, 'Welcome to the world, Joe. You having a good time, Joe? You having a good time?" President Trump said. Mr Trump struggled during his 2016 run for office with multiple accusations of unwanted sexual contact from women, particularly after videotaped remarks emerged of Mr Trump bragging about groping women. Mr Biden, while campaigning for Mr Trump's Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, had said he would like to take Trump "behind the gym" to beat him up for the comments. In defence, the Democrat said: "In my many years on the campaign trail and in public life, I have offered countless handshakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support and comfort," he responded. "And not once — never — did I believe I acted inappropriately. If it is suggested I did so, I will listen respectfully. But it was never my intention. I may not recall these moments the same way, and I may be surprised at what I hear.
