US Supreme Court approves expanded hacking powers today news @@@,,,

Previously, magistrate judges could order searches only within the jurisdiction of their court, often limited to a few counties.

The US Department of Justice (DoJ) said the change was necessary to modernise the law for the digital age.

But digital rights groups say the move expands the FBI's hacking authority.

The DoJ wants judges to be able to issue remote search warrants for computers located anywhere that the United States claims jurisdiction, which could include other countries.

A remote search typically involves trying to access a suspect's computer over the internet to explore the data contained on it.

It has pushed for a change in the rules since 2013, arguing that criminals can mask their location and identity online making it difficult to determine which jurisdiction a computer is located in.
'Only mechanism available'

"Criminals now have ready access to sophisticated anonymising technologies to conceal their identity while they engage in crime over the internet," said DoJ spokesman Peter Carr.

"The use of remote searches is often the only mechanism available to law enforcement to identify and apprehend them.

"The amendment makes explicit that it does not change the traditional rules governing probable cause and notice."

It said the change would not give law enforcement any new authority not already permitted by law.

However, groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) have warned that the change could expand the FBI's ability to conduct mass hacks on computer networks.
'Thousands of millions of computers'

"Such a monumental change in the law should not be snuck by Congress under the guise of a procedural rule," said Neema Singh Guliani of the ACLU.

In 2015, search giant Google also opposed the change, which, it said, "threatens to undermine the privacy rights and computer security of internet users".

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden said the change had "significant consequences for Americans' privacy", and said he would seek to reverse the decision.

"Under the proposed rules, the government would now be able to obtain a single warrant to access and search thousands or millions of computers at once; and the vast majority of the affected computers would belong to the victims, not the perpetrators, of a cybercrime," he said in a statement.

Congress can still opt to reject or modify the changes to the federal rules of criminal procedure - but if it does not act by 1 December the change will take effect.

At that point, in the week after F8, it reported another standalone, Snapchat-like camera application.

Its huge wager on live video is a major test to littler players like Twitter and Snapchat, which ought to totally be perplexed by Facebook's push to supplant others as the go-to put for ongoing response and substance.

Tech profit season has brought some key failures this month. Netflix income were generally positive, however the stock dropped in any case in view of debilitating membership numbers outside the U.S. Twitter profit disillusioned. Apple income were "agonizing."

Facebook conveyed in light of the fact that it needs to be and do for all intents and purposes everything (from specific points of view, that is startling), and for the time being, its clients are permitting it to try.all of them are keen.

Be that as it may, the representative still remains fiercely prominent among Republicans, particularly social preservationists — the voters Cruz frantically needs to turn out for him next Tuesday.

Be that as it may, Trump isn't surrendering any ground in the state. A week ago, in an uncommon move for a competitor known not about Republicans coming to him as opposed to the a different way, off his first visit to Indiana with an outing to the senator's manor, where he met with Pence and by and by requested his underwriting. The meeting was expedited by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a previous leader of the Republican Governors Association who since dropping out of the race himself and embracing Trump hosts been utilizing his get-together associations with charm support for the GOP leader.

In the meantime, the Trump crusade has opened three workplaces around the state, where staff and volunteers have set up telephone banks and are going way to-entryway searching for votes. A flier gave out at a Trump rally in Indianapolis last Wednesday guaranteed volunteers a free "Make America Great Again" cap for thumping on 50 entryways or making 500 telephone calls.

The affectation is clearly working. The next day, Trump's battle office in Carmel, only north of Indianapolis, was stuffed amidst the day — as volunteers grasping call sheets for imminent voters sat at tables and paced the walkway outside making telephone gets to get out the vote in favor of Trump.

While a battle representative did not react to demands for input about Trump's association in Indiana, including what number of staff are on the finance, the crusade's endeavors appear to be more dynamic than in other early states, including Iowa, where Trump put minimal expenditure or exertion in a ground operation.

On Monday, the Cruz battle supposedly held about $1 million of TV advertisement time in Indiana, as the Texas congressperson bets everything on a state that might be his last opportunity to stop Trump. What's more, his battle is trusting that with Kasich out the way, Cruz can beat Trump in a straight on matchup. Yet, it's not liable to be that straightforward.

There's no certification that Kasich's supporters will consequently swing to Cruz. Also, in spite of the fact that Kasich has said he's not going to crusade in Indiana, he distinctly told correspondents amid a battle stop in Pennsylvania on Wednesday that he's not approaching his supporters to vote in favor of another competitor.

"I've never let them know not to vote in favor of me — they ought to vote in favor of me," the Ohio senator said, demanding the arrangement was more about "assets" and "not a major ordeal."

In the interim, Trump, who has spent the previous week destroying the designation process as "degenerate" and "fixed," added the Cruz-Kasich collusion to his rundown of proof of how he charges party insiders are attempting to take the selection from him — more confirmation, he guaranteed, of his own strength.

"It demonstrates that they are simply getting killed," Trump told supporters at a Rhode Island rally on Monday. "It demonstrates how frail they are. It indicates how unfortunate they

Customary manners says it's discourteous to talk in regards to cash, yet in all actuality, it's fair truly uncomfortable.

Actually, Wells Fargo (WFC) discharged a study in 2014 uncovering that 44% of Americans trust individual accounts are the most difficult thing to talk about with other individuals. It positioned above death (38%), legislative issues (35%), and even religion (32%).

Merrill Lynch's Private Banking and Investment Group led a study to decide the most ideal path for families to examine their budgetary circumstance. The report conversed with families who had more than $3 million in investable resources, and 66% of those rich families say that they examine cash and legacy as an approach to maintain a strategic distance from false impressions.

While a large portion of us don't have that much in the bank, there are still some critical lessons in the learn about how to adequately handle prickly family money related issues. Here are a couple of things to consider whenever cash comes up during supper.

Keep it "impartial"

Let's be honest: beginning a discussion about cash is never simple. Individuals get delicate about their monetary circumstance, and the exact opposite thing you need to do is begin a family fight.

In Merrill Lynch's study 77% of respondents felt like it was the obligation of the "riches maker" (or the relative who procures the most cash) to start budgetary discussions. Indeed, even in this way, 42% additionally said that those same riches makers are the general population who most kept the stream of data about riches.

So what are you expected to do? As indicated by budgetary advisor Amanda Clayman, the way to beginning the cash talk is to quit marking it as "the discussion." "Cash is something that individuals feel uncomfortable discussing, and when we make it an "extraordinary" talk, there are a considerable measure of desires."

Rather, it ought to be a progressing discussion, something you can discuss in ordinary circumstances, Clayman says. Called nonpartisan discussions, they don't have a particular goal other than to discuss cash in a conversational and loose way. For instance, you can disclose to your kids why you offered cash to a specific philanthropy, and use it as a chance to discuss issues they're keen on. The key is to not make it an exceptional, formal discussion and send the message that cash is not an unthinkable subject.

Donald Trump effectively won New York's Republican presidential essential Tuesday, a huge home-state triumph that is liable to give new energy to the GOP leader's battle following quite a while of turmoil.

"It's simply extraordinary," Trump pronounced, as he talked inside the chamber of Trump Tower in Manhattan encompassed by his family and no less than 100 cheering companions and supporters. "We're going to end at an abnormal state, and get significantly more delegates than anyone anticipated, even in their most out of control creative ability."

In spite of the fact that the outcomes were all the while being tallied, Trump seemed, by all accounts, to be in a solid position to win near the 95 delegates in question Tuesday, growing the land head honcho's as of now sizable representative lead over his nearest match, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. In any case, it was misty if Trump's home state win will be sufficient to fight off a challenged Republican tradition this mid year.

While Trump has won the larger part of votes in the GOP race as such, his battle was moderate to understand the representative race and has been outflanked in a few states, including Louisiana, Colorado and Wyoming, by the Cruz crusade as of late. In any case, Cruz, who has situated himself as the boss different option for Trump, endured a critical difficulty on Tuesday, putting an inaccessible third in the essential behind Ohio Gov. John Kasich. In spite of the fact that Cruz did not hope to win New York, his unfortunate display put him at danger of rising Tuesday with no agents by any means.

Addressing correspondents about Cruz's fortunes on Tuesday night, Trump pronounced, "We don't have quite a bit of a race any longer in view of what I am seeing. … It's difficult to catch us."

For Trump, the win in New York was a mental help for his battle, which has been under weight in the midst of agent interest and Cruz's triumph in Wisconsin two weeks prior. What's more, it came at a vital time, giving Trump energy heading into a slate of northeastern states accepted to be great to his battle, including Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware and Rhode Island, which hold GOP primaries on April 26.

In any case, Tuesday's triumph additionally came in the midst of gossipy tidbits about staff turmoil as Trump has tried to reshuffle and grow his battle base even with a representative race that could represent the deciding moment his radical White House offer. After his misfortune in Wisconsin, Trump gave new influence to Paul Manafort, a long-lasting GOP hand whom he tapped as his tradition chief.

That has brought up issues about the future and impact of Corey Lewandowski, Trump's crusade supervisor, who has been entangled in outrage lately in the wake of going head to head with a female journalist at a Trump occasion a month ago. At first accused of straightforward battery for the situation, he was cleared a week ago. In any case, bits of gossip have held on that Manafort is basically assuming control over Lewandowski's portfolio, as Trump has conceded him new powers to contract and fire staff and assemble a ground operation heading into vital up and coming primaries like California.

Trump aide lobbied for Pakistani spy front

For over five years, Donald Trump's new top crusade associate, Paul Manafort, campaigned for a Washington-based gathering that Justice Department prosecutors have charged worked as a front for Pakistan's insight administration, as indicated by court and campaigning records audited by Yahoo News.

Manafort's work in the 1990s as an enrolled lobbyist for the Kashmiri American Council was one and only part of a boundless portfolio that, more than quite a few years, incorporated an exhibition of disputable remote customers running from Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos and Zaire's severe tyrant Mobutu Sese Seko to an Angolan agitator pioneer blamed by human rights bunches for torment. His part as a counsel to Ukraine's then PM, Viktor Yanukovych, a partner of Russian President Vladimir Putin, incited worries inside the Bush White House that he was undermining U.S. remote strategy. It was considered so politically harmful in 2008 that presidential hopeful John McCain nixed plans for Manafort to deal with the Republican National Convention — a move that brought about a crack in the middle of Manafort and his then business accomplice, Rick Davis, who at the time was McCain's battle supervisor.

Manafort's work for the Kashmiri gathering has so far not gotten any media consideration.

Be that as it may, it could fuel more inquiries regarding his years of campaigning for sketchy remote hobbies before Manafort, 67, expected his new position as boss delegate counter and strategist for a presidential applicant who over and over censures the impact of Washington lobbyists and reprimands the control of U.S. approach by outside governments.

Court records demonstrate that Manafort's Kashmiri campaigning contract went ahead the FBI's radar screen amid a protracted counterterrorism examination that finished in 2011 with the capture of the Kashmiri chamber's executive, Syed Ghulam Nabi Fai, on charges that he ran the gathering for the benefit of Pakistan's insight benefit, the ISI, as a feature of a plan to furtively impact U.S. strategy toward the questioned region of Kashmir.

The Kashmiri American Council was a "trick" that added up to a "false banner operation that Mr. Fai was working in the interest of the ISI," Gordon D. Kromberg, the collaborator U.S. lawyer who arraigned the case, said in March 2012 at Fai's sentencing hearing in government court. While acting like a U.S.- based not-for-profit financed by American givers thoughtful to the situation of Kashmiris, it was really bankrolled by the ISI with a specific end goal to redirect open consideration "far from the contribution of Pakistan in supporting terrorism in Kashmir and somewhere else," Kromberg said. Fai, who confessed to trick and assessment misrepresentation charges, was then sentenced to two years in government jail.

Campaigning records documented with the secretary of the Senate demonstrate that Manafort's campaigning firm, Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly, was paid $700,000 by the Kashmiri American Council somewhere around 1990 and 1995. This was among more than $4 million that government prosecutors asserted originated from the ISI; Fai gathered the cash more than 20 years from "straw" American contributors who were being repaid from mystery accounts in Pakistan. (The assets were sometimes conveyed to Fai in cocoa paper sacks loaded down with money — and afterward the givers repaid with wire exchanges from ISI agents, as indicated by a FBI affirmation.)

Manafort, who took care of the Kashmiri record for his firm, was never charged for the situation, and Kromberg told Yahoo News that what learning, assuming any, he had of the mystery wellspring of cash from his customer was not part of the Justice Department's examination. (While enrolling with Congress as a household lobbyist for the Kashmiri American Council, Manafort never enlisted with the U.S. Equity Department as an outside specialists of Pakistan, as he would have been required to do in the event that he knew about the ISI financing of his customer.)

Yet, a previous senior Pakistani authority, who requested that not be recognized, told Yahoo News that there was never any uncertainty on Pakistan's part that Manafort knew of his administration's part in moving the Kashmiri board. The previous authority said that amid an excursion from Islamabad in 1994 he met with Manafort and Fai in Manafort's office in Alexandria, Va., "to survey procedure and arrangements" for the chamber. Manafort, at the meeting, exhibited arrangements to impact individuals from Congress to back Pakistan's case for a plebiscite for Kashmir (the biggest segment of which has been a piece of India since 1947), he said. (Inner spending plan records later acquired by the FBI show arranges by the board to burn through $80,000 to $100,000 a year on battle commitments to individuals from Congress.) "It is highly unlikely Manafort didn't realize that Pakistan was included with" the chamber, the previous authority said, in spite of the fact that he included: "A few things are not unequivocally expressed."

Neither Manafort nor the Trump crusade reacted to demands for input for this story. ("I'm not working for any customer at this moment other than working for Mr. Trump," Manafort as of late said on NBC's "Meet the Press" when gotten some information about his past "questionable" customers.)

Yet, Manafort's previous accomplice Charlie Black, now a counsel to adversary Republican presidential competitor John Kasich, said that similarly as the firm was concerned, the Kashmiri gathering was a residential, not an outside, customer. "No one was more shocked than me that the person was taking the cash from Pakistan," Black said in a phone meeting. "We didn't know anything about it."

However, there was doubtlessly with respect to the Indian government about where the cash was originating from. Its authorities more than once affirmed that the Kashmiri gathering was a front gathering for Pakistan amid the period that Manafort's firm was campaigning for it. The issue exploded in September 1993 after Manafort and one of his campaigning partners, Reva Levinson, flew out to Kashmir and, as per Indian authorities, acted like CNN journalists with an end goal to assemble video footage of meetings with Kashmiri authorities.

"The entire thing was clearly a barefaced operation of delivering TV programming with a conscious and especially against Indian inclination by lobbyists contracted by Pakistan for this very reason," Shiv Shankar, then the Indian Foreign Ministry representative, said in a letter to CNN in Atlanta at the time. (Levinson did not react to a solicitation for input from Yahoo News. At the time she denied the Indian charges, telling an UPI columnist, "We never distorted ourselves as writers.")

Precisely what Manafort accomplished for the Kashmiri chamber is indistinct from the crude campaigning reports his firm documented with the secretary of the Senate. Those reports demonstrate his firm initially enrolled as lobbyists for the gathering in October 1990, that year the gathering was established by Fai. The reports list little past the reason for the campaigning: to look for backing for a House determination by then-Rep. Dan Burton to support a "tranquil determination" of the Kashmir debate. They likewise indicate installments to the firm of $140,000 a year. (Amid this time, Black, Manafort had an extensive rundown of other local customers that incorporated the NRA, the Tobacco Institute and the Trump Organization, which paid the firm $70,000 a year to anteroom Congress on clubhouse betting, flight and assessment issues, as indicated by the campaigning records.)

"We went to the Hill for them to raise the profile of the [Kashmiri] cause," said Black in regards to the association's work for Fai's board. "Be that as it may, no one in Bush 41 [the organization of George H.W. Bush] or the Clinton organization needed to touch it. We never got any genuine consideration for it."

The FBI ran over confirmation that ISI was really not satisfied with Manafort's work. The department's examination started in 2005 with a tip from a secret source (who was looking for a diminished jail term) that Fai and a partner in Pakistan, Zaheer Ahmad, were specialists of the ISI. As a component of the test, operators got mystery national security warrants to wiretap Fai's correspondences; they likewise looked his home and workplaces. Among the proof they grabbed: a December 1995 letter from Fai's primary ISI handler, recognized as a Pakistani Army brigadier general named Javeed Aziz Khan, who passed by the name of "Abdullah," that condemned Fai for recharging an agreement with an advertising firm, as indicated by the FBI oath from a counterterrorism operators, Sarah Webb Linden, that was documented to bolster Fai's detainment in July 2011.

After eight months, at Fai's sentencing hearing, prosecutor Kromberg interestingly recognized the advertising firm as Black, Manafort, as per court records. He then point by point a debate in the middle of Fai and his ISI handler over the Black, Manafort contract. Fai composed back to Khan the following day demanding that the ISI official had indeed affirmed the restoration of the agreement and noticed that to "make it show up" that the chamber was a Kashmiri association "financed by Americans," there was a prior understanding that no one from the Pakistani Embassy could ever contact Black, Manafort, said Kromberg. In any case, Fai was overruled, by record. The ISI handler composed back to Fai expressing that that "'we' — a reference to the ISI — were unsatisfied with the execution of Black, Manafort and Stone, and prompted Fai to end the agreement instantly," as indicated by a transcript of Kromberg's announcement to the court.

In the mean time, the FBI sought after significantly all the more disturbing affirmations identifying with Ahmad, Fai's Pakistan-based partner. As indicated by a ProPubli

Queen Elizabeth II to mark 90th birthday at Windsor Castle

Only a tender walk around the grounds of Windsor Castle, the lighting of a reference point, and a night at home with family are all that are on the regal plate.

No, she'll spare the grandeur and function for her next birthday. The ruler is such a prominent figure in British life that she gets two birthdays every year, one on the genuine date of her introduction to the world, April 21, and one authority birthday in June, when there is no less than a sensible any desire for dry, sunny parade climate.

Her standard hesitance hasn't kept the country's media from going marginally bonkers at the drawing closer turning point. ITV has officially publicized a celebratory "Our Queen at 90" narrative to pump up its Easter appraisals, and Tatler magazine not just put the ruler on its spread, previous the energetic socialites that are its run of the mill spread passage, yet distributed an uncommon supplement in her honor.

The birthday occasions Thursday can be viewed as a dress practice for the official festivals arranged toward the beginning of June. It additionally opens the way to a moving birthday season that will last an entire six weeks, peaking with several festivals substantial and little.

"June is when everything is going on. That is the immense huge spectacle, the road parties and everything," said Sophia Money-Coutts, Tatler's components executive. "Starting now and into the foreseeable future, the scope will be determined. The republicans will be shouting."

In reality, it's not a decent time for the individuals who restrict the government to look over the parapet. The British open's impressive warmth for the ruler surfaces now and again of national festival — witness the million or more group that cheered her outside the Buckingham Palace doors at her Golden Jubilee in 2002.

The ruler and the royals have persevered through some low focuses in the most recent two decades, especially around the season of the passing of Princess Diana in 1997, however their prominence has bounced back with the marriage of Prince William to Kate Middleton and the landing of their two youngsters, Prince George — now third in line to the throne — and Princess Charlotte.

"It's only a brilliant minute for the entire family following a precarious couple of years," Money-Coutts said. "Furthermore, the ruler is the nonentity of all that, with the line of progression entirely guaranteed. They are experiencing a heavenly period."

Elizabeth — with her natural grin, vivid outfits and flighty if costly caps — appears to be strangely impenetrable to time. On the off chance that she is drained, it doesn't appear. She has relaxed her calendar, as an admission to 89 and checking, and she has reduced exhausting plane voyages, however she hints at no physical or mental delicacy.

Neither does her 94-year-old spouse Prince Philip, in spite of a few genuine wellbeing frightens that incorporated a therapeutic mediation to open stopped up heart corridors. His face is rocky, yet regardless he conducts himself with the upright course of the previous maritime officer that he is.

Both still appear to be going solid, despite the fact that their youngsters and grandchildren are progressively venturing into handle regal obligations running from the normal, such as opening a healing center ward, to the more considerable, for example, going to a meeting of Commonwealth heads of state.

Elizabeth and Philip say little openly, yet the ITV narrative was uncovering about the family flow in light of the fact that William, Kate and Prince Harry all spoke about the ruler, ending the typical code of quiet that oversees their relations with a regularly meddlesome news media considered mindful by some for barbarously dogging Diana in the last months of her life.

William, who lost his mom Diana when he was only 15, said the ruler had helped him in inconspicuous routes by giving security and urging him to locate his own balance.

"Growing up, having this nonentity, having this solidness above me has been inconceivable," he said. "I have possessed the capacity to investigate, see, marginally cut my own particular way. I incredibly acknowledge and esteem that assurance."

Kate, an imaginable future ruler who ventured into the spotlight when she and William became hopelessly enamored in their college days in Scotland, lauded Elizabeth for making it less demanding for her to adapt to the steady consideration her position brings.

"I feel she's been there, a tender direction truly for me," she said.

The point of reference 90th birthday is an upbeat event, one the ruler will recognize and impart to the country. It was diverse in September when — by righteousness of her dad's initial passing and her own life span — she surpassed Queen Victoria to win qualification as the British ruler with the most time on the throne.

While the British press went gaga over her achievement, it appeared that for Elizabeth it was a to some degree excruciating update that her dad, King George VI, had passed on all of a sudden at age 56, making her ruler far sooner than had been normal or fancied. She was in the midst of some recreation in Kenya at the time, having left Britain as a princess and returning as a ruler in grieving, welcomed at the airplane terminal by Winston Churchill, the first of numerous executives.

The ruler might be hesitant to make an incredible get worked up about her 90th birthday, yet there is little uncertainty her most loved time of year is drawing nearer. For June implies not just her official birthday, and the occasion Trooping The Color parade that goes with it, it likewise brings the Royal Ascot races that are a highlight of the ruler's year, and different races and dashing related occasions dear to her heart.

Viewers of the ITV narrative really wanted to notice that the ordinarily held ruler appeared to be most vivified at the races, notwithstanding demonstrating shocking foot speed for a lady in her 80s as she attempted to show signs of improvement perspective of the final lap.

"She'll be at Ascot each morning in her pastel-shaded suits, concentrating on the Racing Post, conversing with her hustling chief," Money-Coutts said. "She completely adores it."

Rescuers rush to trapped residents as Japan quakes kill 41

MASHIKI, Japan (AP) — Army troops and other rescuers rushed Saturday to try to reach scores of trapped residents after a pair of strong earthquakes in southwestern Japan killed at least 41 people, injured about 1,500 and left hundreds of thousands without electricity or water.

Rain was forecast to pound the area overnight, threatening to further complicate the relief operation and set off more mudslides in isolated rural towns, where people were waiting to be rescued from collapsed homes.

Police in Kumamoto prefecture said Saturday night that 32 people had died in the magnitude-7.3 quake and aftershocks that shook the Kumamoto region on the southwestern island of Kyushu early Saturday. Nine died in a magnitude-6.5 quake that hit the same area Thursday night.

Four people were missing in Minamiaso, Japan's Kyodo news agency reported. The village near Mount Aso volcano appears to have been the hardest hit by the second earthquake.

Japanese media reported that nearly 200,000 homes were without electricity. TV video showed people huddled in blankets, sitting or lying shoulder-to-shoulder on the floors of evacuation centers. An estimated 400,000 households were without running water.

Hundreds of people lined up for rations at shelters before nightfall, bracing for the rain and strong winds that were expected. Local stores quickly ran out of stock and shuttered their doors, and people said they were worried about running out of food.

"I could hear the noise of all my dishes come crashing down, the rattling, and I was shocked and sad, now I've lost all my dishes," said Ayuko Sakamoto, who was among those in line for the food.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said that 1,500 people had been injured in the quakes. Kumamoto prefectural official Riho Tajima said that 184 were injured seriously, and that more than 91,000 had been evacuated from their homes. More than 200 homes and other buildings were either destroyed or damaged, she said.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe expressed concern about secondary disasters, given the forecast for rain and strong winds. With the soil already loosened by the quakes, rainfall can set off mudslides.

"Daytime today is the big test" for rescue efforts, Abe said early Saturday. Landslides have already cut off roads and destroyed bridges, slowing down rescuers.

Police received reports of 97 cases of people trapped or buried under collapsed buildings, while 10 people were caught in landslides in three municipalities in the prefecture, Kyodo reported.

TV video showed a collapsed student dormitory at Aso city's Tokai University that was originally two floors, but now looked like a single-story building. A witness said he heard a cry for help from the rubble. Two students were reported to have died there.

In the town of Mashiki, where people were trapped beneath the rubble for hours, an unconscious 93-year-old woman, Yumiko Yamauchi, was dragged out from the debris of her home and taken by ambulance to a hospital. Her son-in-law Tatsuhiko Sakata said she had refused to move to shelter with him after the first quake Thursday.

"When I came to see her last night, I was asking her: 'Mother? I'm here! Do you remember me? Do you remember my face?' She replied with a huge smile filled with joy. A kind of smile that I would never forget. And that was the last I saw of her," Sakata said.

The area has been rocked by aftershocks, including the strongest with a magnitude of 5.4 Saturday morning. The Japan Meteorological Agency said that the magnitude-7.3 quake early Saturday may have been the main one, with one from Thursday night a precursor.

David Rothery, professor of planetary geosciences at The Open University in Britain, said the Saturday morning quake was 30 times more powerful than the one Thursday night. "It is unusual but not unprecedented for a larger and more damaging earthquake to follow what was taken to be 'the main event,'" he said.

Rothery noted that in March 2011, a magnitude-7.2 earthquake in northern Japan was followed two days later by a magnitude-9.0 quake that caused a devastating tsunami. "Fortunately, this time the epicenters have been below land rather than under the sea, and no tsunamis have been triggered," he said.

The epicenters of Thursday's and Saturday's quakes were relatively shallow — about 10 kilometers (6 miles) — and close to the surface, resulting in more severe shaking and damage. National broadcaster NHK said as many as eight quakes were being felt an hour in the area.

One massive landslide tore open a mountainside in Kumamoto's Minamiaso village all the way from the top to a highway below. Another gnawed at a highway, collapsing a house that fell down a ravine and smashed at the bottom. In another part of the village, houses were left hanging precariously at the edge of a huge hole cut open in the earth.

Suga, the chief Cabinet secretary, told reporters that the number of troops in the area was being raised to 20,000, while additional police and firefighters were also on the way.

At a hot springs resort, dozens of people trapped were picked up by military helicopters, Asahi TV reported.

Kyushu island's Mount Aso, the largest active volcano in Japan, erupted for the first time in a month, sending smoke rising about 100 meters (328 feet) into the air, but no damage was reported. It was not immediately clear whether there was a link between the quakes and the eruption. The 1,592-meter (5,223-foot) -high mountain is about a 1 1/2-hour drive from the epicenter.

The historic Aso Shrine, a picturesque complex near the volcano, was seriously damaged, with a number of buildings with curved tiled roofs flattened on the ground like lopsided fans. A towering gate, known as the "cherry blossom gate" because of its grandeur, especially during spring, collapsed.

The Nuclear Regulation Authority reported no abnormalities at Kyushu's Sendai nuclear plant.

Bradley Cooper Gets Emotional About Losing His Dad to Cancer at Launch of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy

Bradley Cooper opened up about the loss of his father during a star studded gala celebrating the launch of tech guru Sean Parker’s new cancer research foundation.

Cooper was joined by celebs like John Legend, Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry, Sean Penn, and Minka Kelly for the Parker Foundation’s launch of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, hosted at the Napster founder’s Los Angeles home. The Hollywood crowd celebrated the announcement of a $250 million grant to begin funding for the institute and its groundbreaking research.
Cooper, whose father died from cancer in 2011, gave an emotional speech about his loss and his hopes for the foundation.

“I just want to tell you about my father Charles J. Cooper, he passed away from lung cancer in 2011,” Cooper began. “I was in a very lucky position because I was able to put everything on hold in all aspects of my life and completely focus on taking care of him.”

But even with the resources at his disposal, the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 star described the process of treating his father’s cancer as “just simply overwhelming, incredibly stressful, complex, and all consuming.”
He continued, “I can’t even imagine how much more difficult it is for those patients and the families that are less fortunate than I was that simply can’t afford to pay for both treatment and rent.”
Cooper then promised that in the next several months, he and Parker will launch a new initiative to help ease the burden on both patients and their families so that they can focus on treatment.
“My hope is that one day every person fighting cancer will receive the full support they need to maintain their quality of life from the day of diagnosis to the end of their treatment regardless of economic or social status,” he said.

The actor went on to speak about Emily Whitehead, who was diagnosed with leukemia at the age of 5. “She was just a normal little girl who loved to laugh, paint her nails with her mom, swim,” Cooper explained.

Doctors tried everything to help Whitehead, but nothing worked. Two years after her diagnosis, her parents enrolled her in an experimental treatment program at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. The procedure had never been tested on a child, “but Emily’s mom and dad insisted that they wanted her to be the first,” Cooper said.

As of 2012, Whitehead has been in remission. “She was so brave to take this risk and in the years to come it is with the Parker Institute wants to offer every patient and their family more chances to try ground breaking treatments that will help them live a full and healthy life like Emily,” Cooper concluded.

Speaking on what the night meant to him, Parker told reports, “It’s incredibly gratifying but in some ways, the work begins tonight. This is the start. And hopefully 20 years from now we’re going to look back and cancer isn’t going to be this scary thing; it’s not going to be a death sentence.”

Like Looking At Pictures of Cute Penguins? Science Needs Your Help

British scientists are asking the public to help them analyse thousands of photos of penguins as part of a study in Antarctica.

As part of PenguinWatch 2.0, 75 cameras have been set up across Antarctica and sub-Antarctic islands to capture images of the cute, flightless birds.

However, with all of those camera taking hourly snaps, the scientists simply don’t have time to monitor all of the photos.

“We can’t do this work on our own,” Lead researcher Dr Tom Hart told the BBC.

All people need to do to join in is log in at the Penguin Watch 2.0 site, and identify adult penguins, chicks and eggs within each image.

Clinton has edge over Trump on range of issues

In a stark warning for Donald Trump as he eyes a possible general election showdown with Hillary Clinton, Americans trust the Democratic front-runner more than the Republican businessman to handle a wide range of issues — from immigration to health care to nominating Supreme Court justices.

Even when asked which of the two candidates would be best at "making American great" — the central promise of Trump's campaign — Americans are slightly more likely to side with Clinton, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.

The survey does reveal some potential trouble spots for Clinton. Trump is nearly even with her on whom Americans trust to handle the economy, which voters consistently rank as one of the top issues facing the country. Clinton is trusted more on the economy by 38 percent of Americans, while 35 percent side with Trump.

And despite Americans' overall preference for Clinton on a host of issues, just 20 percent say she represents their own views very well on matters they care about, while 23 percent say somewhat well.

But as with most issues addressed in the AP-GfK poll, the numbers for Trump are even worse: Just 15 percent of Americans say he represents their views very well and 14 percent say somewhat well.

Trump's support with registered Republican voters is also soft on some issues, with less than 50 percent saying they trust him over Clinton on working with Congress or handling the U.S. image abroad. About a quarter of Republicans say they trust neither candidate on either of those issues.

Those figures underscore the work the real estate mogul must do to shore up support within his own party if he's the nominee.

Greg Freeman, an independent who leans Republican, said he would "absolutely not" trust Trump to handle major issues facing the United States.

"I think he would have the U.S. in wars at the drop of a hat. He would make the international community angry at the United States," said Freeman, a 41-year-old from Walhalla, South Carolina. "He has a lot of comments on issues, but he has no solutions."

While Clinton and Trump are the favorites to face off in the fall campaign, obstacles remain, particularly for the Republican billionaire. He's leading in the delegate count, but needs to perform better in the upcoming final primaries in order to reach the 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the nomination. If he fails to hit that number, the GOP contest will be decided at the party's convention in July — and it's unclear whether Trump's slim campaign operation is prepared for that complex challenge.

Clinton has yet to shake Democratic challenger Bernie Sanders, a Vermont senator who has energized young voters with his calls for breaking up Wall Street banks and making tuition free at public colleges and universities.

While Sanders faces tough odds of overtaking Clinton, who has a commanding lead in delegates, his continued presence in the race has rankled the former secretary of state and prevented her from fully turning her attention toward the general election.

Still, Clinton has been starting to draw a contrast with her potential Republican opponents, namely Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, his closest rival.

"I'm really looking forward to debating either Donald Trump or Ted Cruz," Clinton said Friday. "Mr. Trump, tell me again about how you're going to build this wall and make the Mexicans pay for it. Tell me again why you think it's a good idea for Japan and South Korea to develop nuclear weapons."

Trump's campaign appears well-aware of the need to bolster the businessman's policy credentials. He's recently expanded on his foreign policy views, including questioning U.S. participation in the NATO military alliance and suggesting some Asian nations may need nuclear weapons. Campaign officials have also said Trump plans to give a series of policy speeches in the coming weeks.

Clinton's edge over Trump on the issues spans foreign and domestic policy.

She holds a significant advantage on handling immigration, health care, the U.S. image abroad, filling Supreme Court vacancies, international trade and working with Congress. Her biggest advantage is on handling gender equality issues, with 55 percent of Americans trusting her and just 12 percent backing Trump.

Clinton has a slimmer lead over Trump on which candidate is trusted to protect the country, with 37 percent backing the Democrat and 31 percent backing the Republican. The margin is similar when Americans were asked who they trusted to handle the threat posed by the Islamic State group.

Much of Trump's appeal with voters has rested on his broad pledge to "make America great again." But when asked which candidate they trusted more to make the country great, 33 percent of Americans picked Clinton and 28 percent backed Trump.

Thirty percent said they didn't trust either candidate to make that happen.

The AP-GfK Poll of 1,076 adults was conducted online March 31-April 4, using a sample drawn from GfK's probability-based KnowledgePanel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.

Respondents were first selected randomly using telephone or mail survey methods and later interviewed online. People selected for KnowledgePanel who didn't otherwise have access to the Internet were provided access at no cost to them.
