Saints to sinners? NFL's New Orleans Saints in court bid to stop release of emails linked to Catholic child abuse scandal

Uncategorized

Saints to sinners? NFL's New Orleans Saints in court bid to stop release of emails linked to Catholic child abuse scandal The New Orleans Saints are to argue in court that the public should not be permitted to see emails which allegedly show team executives giving PR advice to the area's archdiocese as it battled child abuse allegations. Legal representatives of around two dozen men who are in the process of suing the church over allegations of historical child sex abuse have said in court filings that they have obtained 276 documents which appear to show the NFL team assisting the archdiocese of New Orleans with what is claimed to be a "pattern and practice of concealing its crimes." "Obviously, the Saints should not be in the business of assisting...

34 US troops suffered brain injury in Iran’s revenge strike for Soleimani’s killing – Pentagon Some 34 US troops were diagnosed with traumatic brain injury following the Iranian strikes on two US bases earlier this month, the Pentagon has said, despite the administration’s prior claims the injuries were “not serious.” Eight US soldiers previously airlifted to Germany have been removed to the US for further treatment, the Pentagon acknowledged in a press conference on Friday.

Did Zelensky snub Holocaust memorial to avoid upsetting Ukrainian nationalists?

Uncategorized

Did Zelensky snub Holocaust memorial to avoid upsetting Ukrainian nationalists? Holocaust memorial group Yad Vashem is angry after the Ukrainian delegation unexpectedly withdrew from a commemoration in Jerusalem, on Thursday. As world leaders gathered in the Israeli city for the Fifth World Holocaust Forum something bizarre happened. At the last minute, Volodymyr Zelensky changed his mind about attending, much to the chagrin of the event’s organizers. Making it even more strange, Zelensky’s move meant a brief planned meeting with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, didn’t happen. Which was especially peculiar given Kiev had apparently sought the engagement, according to Russian Presidential aide Yuri Ushakov. Now, people are asking why the Ukr...

One of the brightest explosions ever seen was actually a giant star EATING its neighbor – study

Uncategorized

One of the brightest explosions ever seen was actually a giant star EATING its neighbor – study The record-setting stellar explosion SN 2006gy was 50 billion times brighter than our sun, with a blast so energetic it baffled the scientific community. Now scientists think they have uncovered what made it so incredibly bright. The explosion, which became known as a 'hypernova,' occurred in September 2006 some 240 million light-years away in the Perseus constellation. Astronomers looked on in awe as the blast grew even brighter over the course of 70 days, completely outshining its host galaxy, in a cosmic event hundreds of times more powerful than a standard supernova. SN 2006gy was the brightest and most energe...

ICYMI: Saudis hack Bezos - If Amazon tech genius falls for WhatsApp scam, what chance do the rest of us have? Hats, or Keffiyehs, off to Saudi Arabia, because if reports are true that they managed to hack the phone of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, then that’s like hacking Tony Stark! It’s alleged that the hacking began after Bezos and Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman swapped WhatsApp digits at a dinner party in Hollywood (yeah, I know!). ICYMI asks, if a man like Bezos, who is at the very forefront of some of the great technical advances of our time can be caught out by some WhatsApp scam, what chance do the rest of us have?

‘You f*cking four-eyed c*nt’: England cricket star Stokes risks sanction after foul-mouthed rant at fan in South Africa (VIDEO) England hero Ben Stokes could be in hot water with the cricket authorities after he was caught on camera appearing to call a fan a “f*cking four-eyed c*nt” after being dismissed against South Africa. Stokes scored just two runs before being the fourth man to fall in England’s first innings in Johannesburg, as the visitors ended the first day of the Test on 192-4. Rather than head quietly back into the dressing room, Stokes appeared to get involved in an expletive-filled exchange with a fan in the crowd. “Say it to me outside the ground you f*cking four-eyed c*nt,” Stokes was apparently heard to say by a camera which was fol...

The diplomats in La Paz also cited “constant hostility and constant grievances of Cuba against the Bolivian constitutional government and its democratic process.” Bolivia has been governed by interim President Jeanine Anez since the resignation of long-serving socialist President Evo Morales in November.
