Presidential hopeful Booker, in Selma, says U.S. failing its people

Image
Booker, 49, a black second-term senator from New Jersey and former mayor of Newark, also lamented that clean water and affordable healthcare are still unavailable in many communities. "We live in a nation that is failing its moral obligations to its children, to its people," Booker said in a short speech at a church near the bridge in Selma, Alabama, where civil rights activists were attacked more than half a century ago. Nearly 600 activists marching for African-American voting rights were met on the Edmund Pettus bridge on March 7, 1965, by white state troopers who beat them with batons and sprayed them with tear gas. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2TslKbC via Latest News

SpaceX's Crew Dragon test flight gets through the toughest bit without issue

Image
SpaceX sent its Crew Dragon capsule skyward on Saturday for a crucial test of its ability to carry human passengers. Now, slightly more than 24 hours later, the next phase of the test has played out. It went well. The Crew Dragon capsule, designated Demo-1, was able to successfully dock with the International Space Station at roughly 3:00 a.m. ET. Although there was no crew aboard this time, SpaceX's reusable capsule is designed to carry up to seven astronauts to and from Earth's orbit. SEE ALSO: SpaceX kicks off a 'new era in spaceflight' with the Crew Dragon launch The company has been sending an earlier version of its capsule to the ISS for a number of years, but in those instances the space station's robotic arm has helped the smaller vehicle successfully dock. For this test, the Crew Dragon's own navigational system handled the docking procedure — and it happened without issue. Capture confirmed!

Pocophone F1 gets 4K 60 FPS video recording with latest beta update

Pocophone F1 - also known as POCO F1 in India - was launched last year in August with impressive hardware at an equally impressive price. Sadly, the smartphone lacked support for 4K 60 FPS video recording and back in January, the company said that the phone would get the feature soon.

U.S. tries to safeguard Afghan peace push from India-Pakistan crisis

Image
U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has been publicly focused on lowering tensions between the nuclear-armed rivals since a Feb. 14 suicide car bomb in an Indian-controlled area of Kashmir triggered the first Indian air strikes inside of Pakistan since a 1971 war. Senior U.S. officials told Reuters that as the United States spoke with senior Pakistani officials, emphasizing the need to lower the risk of conflict with India, Islamabad privately offered warnings on Afghanistan. Pakistani officials said their ability to support Afghan peace talks could be in jeopardy in the event of a full-blown crisis, U.S. officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2GZzFzV via Latest News

Trump blames North Korea summit failure on Cohen testimony

Image
Donald Trump has claimed his former lawyer Michael Cohen’s congressional testimony “may have contributed” to the collapse of last week’s US-North Korea talks. The president suggested the House of Representatives Oversight Committee’s decision to interview his longtime fixer on the same day he met Kim Jong-un in Hanoi had been a factor in the two leaders’ failure to strike a deal. The president abruptly ended Thursday’s talks with Mr Kim, telling the media the North Korean leader had demanded “sanctions lifted in their entirety” in exchange for denuclearisation. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2ToG25X via Latest News

China accuses two detained Canadian men of spying

Image
China has accused two detained Canadians of spying, intensifying a diplomatic row between the two countries. It came just days after Canada announced it will proceed with a request from the United States to extradite Meng Wanzhou, chief financial officer of the telecom giant Huawei. Michael Kovrig, a former Canadian diplomat, was accused of spying and stealing state secrets and intelligence, with the help of Canadian businessman Michael Spavor. It was the first time the two detained men's cases have been linked. Mr Kovrig is a former diplomat who was working as an expert on Asia for the International Crisis Group think tank. Mr Spavor is an entrepreneur known for contacts with high-ranking North Korean officials, including leader Kim Jong-un. According to the official Xinhua news agency Mr Kovrig often entered China using an ordinary passport and business visas, and acquired information from Mr Spavor, who was his "main contact." The two men were detained in December, day...

Google compensates 'underpaid' male employees

Image
Google has compensated many of its male workers after finding they received comparatively fewer bonuses and pay rises than women last year. The company, which has faced many accusations of failing its female employees, said it had automatically topped up men's pay to address a gender gap within its ranks of software developers. An analysis of pay across the company revealed that more women software engineers at a certain level had been handed bonuses or raises from managers throughout the year. Google said it paid $9.7m (£7.4m) to 10,667 employees to address last year's pay disparities. It did not disclose how much was spent topping up male software engineer salaries. The company uses algorithms to define an employee’s compensation based on the market rate, location, level and performance rating, but managers are given an extra budget which they can use for raises and bonuses if they believe a particular employee has excelled. The company's review foun...
