Question: Pink on Dr. Luke: 'He's not a good person'

Singer Pink has slammed music producer Dr. Luke, insisting he’s a bad person who has “earned” his terrible reputation.
Dr. Luke has been embroiled in a long legal battle with pop star Kesha after she filed lawsuits against him for sexual and verbal abuse in 2014, and as a result of the litigation, he has since been dropped as CEO of his Kemosabe Records label.
Pink last collaborated with the producer in 2006 on her song I’m Not Dead and she had such a bad time creating the track, she refuses to work with him ever again.
Speaking of Kesha’s allegations of abuse against Dr. Luke, Pink tells The New York Times, “I don’t know what happened. But I know that regardless of whether or not Dr. Luke did that, this is his karma and he earned it because he’s not a good person.”
“I have told him that to his face and I do not work with him,” she adds. “He doesn’t do good business, he’s not a kind person, he doesn’t do the right thing when given ample opportunities to do so, and I don’t really feel that bad for him.”
Pink and Kesha aren’t the only Hollywood stars who have experienced nightmare moments with Dr. Luke - singer Kelly Clarkson has also dissed the music producer in the past.
“He’s just not a good person to me,” Clarkson told The Kyle and Jackie O Show last year. “We’ve clashed... Obviously, he’s a talented dude, but... I’ve run into a couple really bad situations, like, musically... And he’s kind of difficult to work with, kind of demeaning.”
The Since U Been Gone hitmaker also recently revealed she despises the producer so much, she opted out of millions of dollars in royalties by denying a songwriting credit on 2009 number one hit My Life Would Suck Without You, just so her name wouldn’t appear alongside co-writer Dr. Luke’s.

Camila Cabello is giving a little insight into her close relationship with Taylor Swift.
The 21-year-old singer covers the latest issue of Rolling Stone, in which she talks about how she and Swift met. Cabello says the two became friends through mutual pal Hailee Steinfeld, and then Swift ended up reaching out to Cabello while Cabello was going through her first breakup. Cabello is now one of the opening acts for Swift's huge Reputation tour.
"She sent me a breakup playlist and said, ‘Come over. Let's talk about it,'" Cabello dishes about Swift's kind gesture. "I think the Haim girls were there. It was, like, a girls-night thing."
Swift continued to be there for Cabello when Cabello left Fifth Harmony in December 2016 on not-so-great terms. Cabello says the "Delicate" singer gave her advice to "just write it out" when it came to her emotions.
"There were so many songs that didn't make my album that were just me getting it out," Cabello says of her debut solo album, Camila.
Cabello still refers to that turbulent time as a "breakup."
"It was as painful as a breakup, a five-year breakup," Cabello says of parting ways with Fifth Harmony.
"I don't think there was ever a point where I was like, ‘I want to leave because I'm the breakout star,'" she adds. "We were just really young. If we were in the same situation now, it would probably be fine for everyone to make their own music while being in the group, because I think everyone understands now that you can't limit people. That's why people break free."
In March, Cabello slammed rumors that 28-year-old Swift influenced her to leave Fifth Harmony.
"If I don’t want to do something the whole world could be telling me and I won’t do it. And if I do, then the whole world could be telling me to not do it and I’ll do it. I’ve always been that way," she said during her appearance on The Dan Wootton Interview podcast, explaining that she was bothered by fans blaming Swift for her exiting the band. "It annoyed me that people said that she was encouraging me, because I know she probably got a lot of flak for that or a lot of negative criticism for that, and that annoys me because I’m really protective over my friends. To be honest with you, she’s never, ever had anything to do with that."
Cabello also joked that the only thing the two ever talk about is "love and boys."
"We strategize over it," she cracked. "Our friendship is very innocent in that way and it’s so, like, pure and I so fiercely protect my friendships with people in the industry that are like that."
ET recently spoke to Selena Gomez's mom, Mandy Teefey, who also dished on Swift's super-close relationship with the "Hands to Myself" singer. Watch below:

Question: Georgia student in police beating video says he feared for his life

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title

(CNN) The 21-year-old Georgia college student seen on cell phone video being beaten by two Georgia police officers says he thought he was going to die during the traffic stop on April 12.
Demetrius Hollins was pulled over on a busy suburban Atlanta road by Gwinnett County Police Sgt. Michael Bongiovanni for not having a license plate, according to the police report.
Hollins said the license plate was in the rear window.
He also said he recognized Bongiovanni from an August 2016 traffic stop.
"That's when I reached over to get my phone," Hollins told CNN on Monday.
JUST WATCHED Georgia cops fired after videos surface Replay More Videos ... MUST WATCH Georgia cops fired after videos surface 01:57
"[Bongiovanni] started yelling at me and saying that I'm not going to get video of this, 'You're not going to make any phone calls, nobody is going to know about this,'" Hollins said.
Hollins said Bongiovanni ordered him to get out of the car. Cell phone video recorded by a witness and posted on social media shows Hollins getting out of the car with his hands up.
"I tried to let him know I didn't have anything where I could hurt him and, of course, me getting out with my hands up, that means basically I'm surrendering," Hollins said.
Bongiovanni wrote in the police report that Hollins resisted arrest: "Hollins refused to place his hands behind his back, spun around and began to actively resist arrest by bending at the waist and trying to push me away."
The cell phone video does not show Hollins attempting to push Bongiovanni.
Seconds later, the video shows Bongiovanni strike Hollins in the face with his elbow.
There is no mention of the strike in the police report.
"This sergeant, in his report, tried to portray Demetrius as some type of criminal he had to defend himself against, but really it's the exact opposite," Hollins's attorney Justin Miller said.
Second officer on the scene
"After I got my hands up and he hit me, that's when he stepped back and tased me in the back," Hollins said. "I fell to the ground and then that's when it stopped. The Taser stopped and that's when he just did it again," Hollins said.
As he lay on the asphalt, Hollins said he had one goal: Don't move.
"He put me in handcuffs and I thought the whole ordeal was just over with and that's when I seen another officer come out of nowhere and straight drop-kick me in the face; just stomp on my face," Hollins said.
A second video posted to social media shows Gwinnett County Police Officer Robert McDonald kicking Hollins.
"The revelations uncovered in this entire investigation are shocking. We are fortunate that this second video was found and we were able to move swiftly to terminate a supervisor who lied and stepped outside of his training and state law," the department said in a press release.
A previous incident
Wednesday's traffic stop was not the first encounter for Hollins, Bongiovanni and McDonald. Bongiovanni pulled Hollins over in the same car and near the same intersection several months ago. According to Bongiovanni's August 2016 report, Hollins was pulled over for a broken tail light. The sergeant said he smelled marijuana and found a loaded gun, a scale with "green leafy material" on it and a bottle with a fake compartment with green, leafy material inside.
The Gwinnett County Solicitor-General has dismissed that case against Hollins along with 88 other cases in which Bongiovanni and McDonald were the principal officers or necessary witnesses.
"The actions of these officers completely undermine their credibility and they cannot be relied upon as witnesses in any pending prosecution," the Solicitor-General's office said in a news release Friday.
A criminal investigation has been launched into each officer.
"These are crimes. It's not something that you do in the line of duty. They are above and beyond the scope of what a police officer should be doing," Miller said. "If these officers saw Demetrius do what they did to him to someone else, they would immediately put him in jail and he'd be tried and convicted -- so, we want the same thing to happen to them," Miller added.
Mike Puglise, an attorney for Bongiovanni, did not address the case specifically in an email response to questions from CNN. He said his client "served the citizens of Gwinnett County with honor and distinction. His efforts have been a reflection of his foremost desire to keep this community and its citizens safe."
According to Puglise, McDonald does not yet have an attorney. CNN has been unable to contact McDonald.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand — A space launch has been scrubbed from a remote launch site in New Zealand after an engine glitch caused engineers to abort the flight.
The command to abort Tuesday came two seconds after the engine of the Rocket Lab Electron rocket fired on its launch pad at Mahia Peninsula on North Island's east coast.
There was no immediate explanation for the launch attempt being called off, although mission control said the problem had been reported as the engine built toward liftoff.
In a tweet, Rocket Lab said the launch of the rocket nicknamed "'Still Testing' (was) scrubbed for the day while team reviews data. Updates on a new attempt to follow."

Question: At 117, Jamaican woman likely just became world's oldest

Violet Brown spent much of her life cutting sugarcane in the fields around her home in western Jamaica. She attended church regularly, avoids pork and chicken, and celebrated her 117th birthday last month.
On Saturday, she is believed to have become the world’s oldest living person following the death of Emma Morano of Italy, born Nov. 29, 1899.
Brown told The Associated Press she is surprised but grateful to have lived this long.
“This is what God has given me, so I have to take it, long life,” Brown said.
Brown is considered the oldest person in the world with credible birth documentation, according to Robert Young, director of the supercentenarian research and database division at Gerontology Research Group, a network of volunteer researchers into the world’s oldest people.

Re: Dying a good death with dignity (The St. Catharines Standard July 28)
We are blessed to have The Stabler Centre and it’s oh-so-wonderful staff and volunteers. What Hospice Niagara provides our community goes way beyond those 10 beds, meeting the needs of those with a life-limiting illness - and their loved ones - with a day program, home visits, grief work, and more.

So like good boys and girls we are to share in the joyous fact that another chunk of Niagara region is going under the shovel.
Thorold Mayor Ted Luciani is ecstatic Toronto people are coming and he says “developers are wasting no time with current projects” - translation , they’re slapping them up.
Greed has replaced commonsense.
The tax base is the creed of the day, politicians spout it steadily.
Wildlife, nature are not important, it’s money folks, money.
Pelham, once a unique special place, has been transformed by Mayor Dave Augustyn into a predictable concrete sterile place. Wainfleet Mayor April Jeffs, along with Couns. Ted Hessels and Terry Gilmore, recently gave a 41-unit condo development the green light on property which was home to endangered Fowler toads, bald eagles, etc. Lowbanks, Fenwick, Port Robinson and Welland are all being bulldozed under.
Take note that in Niagara politicians’ puff pieces there is no mention of destroying wildlife habitats, green spaces, healthy living for those of us who have paid taxes for years. No, all these shortsighted politicians continually discuss is the “tax base.”
Toronto people choose their way of life to make fortunes in the city and now like the ants running to the land of plenty the grasshopper worked so hard for, they will overtake and devour what we once were.
Forget your children and grandchildren’s right to a healthy happy future, it is about the tax base.

Question: 6 Unanswered Questions After Michael Flynn's Resignation

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

After multiple public statements from the White House, there are still numerous unanswered questions surrounding Michael Flynn's Monday-night resignation from his position as national security adviser.
Flynn is under fire for a discussion he had with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak on the day that the U.S. announced sanctions for cyber hacking that took place during the U.S. election.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer characterized the resignation as being about "eroding trust" between President Trump and Flynn, rather than a legal issue, and he said it was Trump's decision to have Flynn step down. House Speaker Paul Ryan also said the resignation was Trump's call. Those accounts contradict earlier remarks from White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, who said the move was Flynn's.
Here are six the questions we still have about the events:
1. What exactly did Flynn say about U.S. sanctions in his call with Kislyak?
Spicer maintained Tuesday that Flynn being asked to step down was about "trust" and that there was "nothing wrong or inappropriate" about Flynn's call with the ambassador. There is a transcript of the call produced by the intelligence community, NPR has confirmed. It shows there was discussion about the sanctions. "Still, current and former administration officials familiar with the call said the transcript was ambiguous enough that Mr. Trump could have justified either firing or retaining Mr. Flynn," the New York Times reported.
Flynn briefed Vice President Pence before Pence made a round of TV appearances Jan. 15 in which he denied Flynn discussed the sanctions in the call. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Jan. 13 that Flynn told him the call was to convey Christmas greetings, condolences for a plane crash that killed members of a Russian Military choir, Russian talks about the war in Syria and logistics for a post-inauguration call between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In his resignation letter, Flynn apologized for giving the vice president and others "incomplete information regarding my phone calls with the Russian Ambassador."
2. Did Flynn's conversation influence Russia's decision not to retaliate with sanctions of its own?
The Obama administration announced sanctions on Dec. 29 in response to findings that Russia used cyberattacks during the presidential campaign in an effort to assist Trump. The administration expected Russia to retaliate, but it never did. At the time, Trump tweeted glowingly about Putin's decision not to react.
3. Why wait until now to ask for a resignation?
NPR's Carrie Johnson reports that the White House knew Flynn's public statements didn't match what occurred.
Johnson reports that former acting Attorney General Sally Yates, since fired over her stance to not enforce Trump's travel ban, told White House Counsel Donald McGahn about the call's actual contents. Spicer said Tuesday that the Justice Department notified White House counsel on Jan. 26 and that the president was notified immediately.
Spicer said that the White House has been "reviewing and evaluating this issue on a daily basis" for a few weeks and that Flynn has been questioned on multiple occasions.
As the Washington Post notes, though, on Friday Trump gave reporters the impression that he "was not familiar with a Washington Post report that revealed that Flynn had not told the truth about the calls."
4. Who was behind the initial leak?
Who was the first person to share that Flynn had spoken to the Russian ambassador? Trump himself asked Tuesday morning in a tweet, "Why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington?" Spicer echoed concerns about the leak in his briefing.
The Washington Post's Callum Borchers has three theories on "why the Trump White House keeps leaking":
They can't help but gossip,
It's all distraction, getting media to pay attention to "who has power, rather than what the people in power are actually doing," or
Bait for negative coverage so that it can continue to "cast the media as a political opponent."
But it's also possible, if not likely, that the leaks on this issue came from the intelligence community or Justice Department. That could mean that there are people in the government and national-security infrastructure who had genuine concerns about Flynn and how Trump's White House is being run.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., blasted the leaks in a hallway interview on Tuesday, NPR's Susan Davis reports.
"Here's what I know: Gen. Flynn did not break the law talking to the Russia ambassador, in fact that's his job," Nunes said. "Who did break the law is whoever recorded this, unmasked it and leaked it, that is clearly multiple violations."
5. Who will replace Flynn?
Spicer said in a briefing Tuesday afternoon the president is "currently evaluating a group of strong candidates."
Three are thought to be the leading contenders:
Ret. Lt. Gen. Joseph Kellogg , the acting national security adviser, named with Flynn's resignation;
, the acting national security adviser, named with Flynn's resignation; Ret. Vice Adm. Robert Harward , the former deputy director of CENTCOM during the Obama administration. He's a former Navy SEAL who grew up in Iran; and
, the former deputy director of CENTCOM during the Obama administration. He's a former Navy SEAL who grew up in Iran; and Ret. Gen. David Petraeus, the former CIA director in the Obama administration who was sentenced to two years probation and had to pay a $100,000 fine for sharing classified information with a woman he was having an affair with. His probation expires in April.
Also in the running is John Kelly, who was recently confirmed as Trump's homeland security secretary, NPR's Tom Bowman reports.
But, Bowman reports, the smart money is on Harward for now.
6. Will Trump continue to speak with Flynn anyway?
Trump is known to pick up his cell phone. And Flynn is someone who was one of Trump's closest and most trusted national-security advisers during the campaign.
Flynn surely has that number. And there's some precedent for it. Trump has continued communication with other former aides and adviser, including Corey Lewandowski, who was was fired as Trump's campaign manager in June.

Question: For Syrian Refugees In Turkey, A Long Road To Regular Employment

In a neighborhood of Istanbul that's plastered with Arabic signs, a Syrian refugee whips up his specialty — avocado cream smoothies — at the small, colorful cafe where he works.
Majd al-Hassan has been in Turkey for two years, but has yet to learn much Turkish. He doesn't need to. This area is filled with fellow Syrians. He's paid in cash, under the table, and has yet to really integrate into Turkish society, he acknowledges.
"We've got Syrian supermarkets, Syrian restaurants — just like back home," says Hassan, 26. "I haven't even applied for a Turkish ID card. If peace comes to Syria, I'll go home tomorrow."
Nearby, a resident who describes herself as one of the last Turks living on this street near Istanbul's Fatih Mosque says she no longer recognizes her neighborhood.
"Before, this area was only Turkish people, mostly. But now, here, there, everywhere, it's all Syrian people," says Tulay Suleyman, who was born here. "Some Turkish people, they don't like these [new] people. Their culture is a little bit different than ours. [They're] mostly ignorant people — homeless people, low-class."
Xenophobia has flared with the arrival of migrants in parts of Europe. That has not been as big a problem in Turkey, even though there are some 3 million Syrians here — more than in all of Europe combined.
As in Europe, many of the Syrians in Turkey are educated professionals who are under-employed, working off the books for low pay — part of Turkey's swelling black-market economy.
At first, when Syrian refugees began streaming over the Turkish border in 2011, the Turkish government granted them a special protected status — but no work permits.
Many thought the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad would fall quickly — another domino in the Arab Spring — and that Syrian refugees would be able to cross back over the border and return home swiftly.
With the Syrian war now in its seventh year, Turkey has opened a path to Syrians for official employment. But few have taken it.
One of the government's motives in trying to regularize Syrians is that Turks have been worried about having their wages undercut.
"There was a public concern that Turkish people would be unemployed because of the Syrians being employed with lower fees [wages]," says labor lawyer Mehmet Ata Sarikaripoglu. "We see what happened in Europe, and how the politics in Europe has changed after that."
Fearing a political backlash, Turkey started a program in January 2016 to increase work permits for refugees. The government also now requires companies to give Syrians the same pay and benefits as Turks. But the roll-out has been slow.
Integrating Syrians is political too. They tend to be more religious and conservative than many Turks — and they tend to support Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He's floated the idea of offering them Turkish citizenship, but that has prompted a backlash from some opposition parties and more secular Turks.
At an Istanbul municipal office, long lines of Syrians snake across the lobby. People are registering for Turkish ID cards and health care, and signing up their children for public schools — all services they get for free as refugees.
One man yells and shakes with frustration. He says bureaucrats keep telling him to come back tomorrow. Turkey's social services are overloaded with newcomers like himself, he says.
Behind the lobby's front desk, Yahiya Osman helps Syrians register for ID cards and health care. He's a Syrian refugee himself, and has worked here for four years — even though he only got a work permit two weeks ago.
"It makes me eligible for private health insurance, a pension and worker's compensation," says Osman, 33. "You've got to think ahead. We're not sure what's going to happen in Syria. We might have to stay here in Turkey forever."
But Turkish government statistics show out of the 3 million Syrians here, fewer than 14,000 had work permits by January — a year into the program.
"It's a very exhausting procedure," says Sule Akarsu, who manages a charity that teaches Syrian refugees how to do bricklaying and other construction work.
Her work is dedicated to helping Syrian refugees. Yet even she has not applied for work permits for her Syrian staff.
"It takes nearly three months to get permission for the Syrians," she says. "It's also difficult for Turkish industry, doing all these procedures."
Only companies can apply for these permits, not employees, and they must pay monthly social security for each worker — even if it's a Syrian who doesn't plan to stay in Turkey long-term. Some employers say it's not worth the hassle and expense.
There are questions about how much Turkey's government really wants to implement this policy. It has threatened to fine companies that hire Syrians without permits. But the fines are rarely enforced.
At an Istanbul cafe, Adnan Hadad, another Syrian, says it's not just the bureaucracy that slows things down. He's dragged his feet too. When he arrived four years ago, he thought he'd be in Turkey "a couple of years," he says.
"But the Syrian war, and how it eventually evolved, made me realize I'll be here a lot longer," Hadad says.
He still dreams of growing old back home in Syria. But for now, he's starting in on some Turkish paperwork.

Question: Proposed pipeline regulations shouldn’t start a ‘trade war:’ B.C. premier

Horgan has spoken with both Trudeau and Notley in recent days to reiterate his government’s position
B.C.’s premier says his government is trying to protect the province, not be provocative, over a proposed ban on an increase of diluted bitumen shipped from the west coast.
John Horgan said Friday that his government’s announcement earlier this week is cautionary and designed to make sure B.C. doesn’t suffer in the event of a catastrophic spill.
“I did not set out to be provocative,” he said at a news conference. ”In fact, I would suggest that a press release saying we’re going to have a consultation should not be the foundation of a trade war between good friends.”
Alberta Premier Rachel Notley suspended talks Thursday on buying B.C. electricity, and has described the proposal as an unconstitutional attempt to stop Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline.
The expansion project would triple capacity along the pipeline between Edmonton and Burnaby, B.C., and increase tanker traffic off the coast seven fold.

READ MORE: ‘That pipeline is going to get built:’ Trudeau dismisses B.C.’s Trans Mountain move
Ottawa has already approved the expansion and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised again on Friday that Trans Mountain will go ahead, saying it’s an important part of Canada’s energy plans.
Horgan said he’s spoken with both Trudeau and Notley in recent days to reiterate his government’s position that expanding the pipeline would pose a significant threat to B.C.’s economy and environment.
The province is already challenging the project in Federal Court, arguing that B.C. was not adequately consulted.
The government has sought legal advice on the new proposed regulations, but that advice is confidential, Horgan said.
Talking to residents is well within the province’s rights, he added.
“We are not putting in place regulations today, we are not putting in regulations at the end of the month. We are putting in place a consultation and an intentions paper so that the public has an understanding of the potential impact of a catastrophic spill within British Columbia.”
B.C. is not trying to take on the rest of the country with the proposed rules, Horgan said, but does want to be an equal partner in the federation.
He noted that there are many other issues where he agrees with Notley and Trudeau, and hopes they can move forward on those.
“I think there’s great potential for positive working relationships on a number of fronts and I prefer to focus on those,” he said.

Alberta restaurant owner said decision supports ‘our oilsands workers and our oil industry’
The owner of a restaurant in Fort McMurray says she has removed B.C. VQA wine from her wine list in the wake of the B.C. government’s latest move involving the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.
Karen Collins, owner of Asti Trattoria Italiana, said in a post to social media that the decision supports our “our oilsands workers and our oil industry,” and hopes other Alberta restaurants follow suit.
On Tuesday, the province announced a proposal to ban increased shipments of diluted bitumen off the coast until it can determine that shippers are prepared and able to properly clean up a spill.
Alberta Premier Rachel Notley has loudly slammed the move, and announced she is suspending talks on electricity sharing with B.C.
READ MORE: Province takes aim at Trans Mountain pipeline with proposed bitumen restrictions
Collins’ post has provoked conversation about how B.C.’s wine industry supports the province’s economy in similar ways to the oil sands.
“When an industry is hit it lobbies it’s own government – hopefully the wineries and other industries will feel some hurt and impact just as we do and lobby their government to make changes,” Collins said to one comment.
“It’s sad that Canadian provinces cannot find a way of supporting each other.”

Question: Brexit ‘is not good for Gibraltar’, Girling says

Gibraltar MEP Julie Girling has said that the United Kingdom’s EU withdrawal agreement is unlikely to be held up by Spanish demands over Gibraltar.
Ms Girling, MEP for the South West as well as Gibraltar, was speaking as part of an interview with online television channel Core Politics in which she also insisted that Brexit is bad for the Rock no matter how it is ‘spun’.
“I think it’s very difficult for the Gibraltar Government because on the one hand it’s a strange irony that those in the UK who seem to most support Gibraltar over the years…they tend to be really hard Brexiteers,” she said.
“There’s a correlation there somewhere which is somewhat difficult to understand because, clearly, Brexit is not good for Gibraltar.”

“It doesn’t matter how you spin it, it’s not going to work well in a territory that requires about 13,000 people a day to cross the border to keep its economy going,” Ms Girling said adding that she was “very worried” about the prospect of a hard border.
Asked what the likely solution to the situation would be, she insisted that the “only answer” was a trilateral agreement between Gibraltar, Spain and the UK.
Quizzed about the inclusion in the EU’s negotiating position on Brexit of a Spanish veto over the application of any future U.K./EU trade deal to Gibraltar Ms Girling said it was “significant” but added that it “doesn’t mean anything more than a member state has a veto on any part of that agreement.”
“Which is, as I understand it, the same for any member state,” she added.
“If the whole UK withdrawal agreement is being held up at the EU end by Spain that’s not going to run,” Ms Girling said.
Asked if it was a bluff she replied: “It’s a negotiation”.
“It’s part of the implacable face that says ‘we were 28 one is leaving and that leaves 27, one of whom has got a special interest and we’re looking after that special interest, same with Ireland’”.
“Ireland have been given a front row seat at the EU side, for all the right reasons, but they are one of the 27 that’s also very heavily affected.”
“What the EU has done is said ‘we’ve got 27 negotiating together but two of our members have got very special issues here’”.
“But make no mistake other member states have got special interests too and the Spanish have got fishing, they’re very concerned about losing access to our fishing waters and losing the access of our fish going into their markets.”
Asked if it is likely that the UK Government will concede some form of access for EU vessels in UK fishing waters Ms Girling replied: “I’ve said right from the beginning Gibraltar is the only card we’ve got.”
“Spain very much want that access, the UK very much wants Gibraltar to maintain a special status in terms of the border and workers crossing,” she added.
“They may not be connected but that’s what negotiations of this complexity are all about – joining up the dots between seemingly unconnected issues.”
“So it seems perfectly reasonable to me that that’s where we are going to end.”

Tory Jo-Anne Nadler said the former Labour foreign secretary’s comments were unhelpful and the country should be focus on the right policies for Brexit. The ex-cabinet minister has called for either Parliament or the public to be given the chance to have a straight vote between EU membership and a negotiated alternative. But, speaking on Victoria Derbyshire on the BBC, Miss Nadler said this was not the right move. Asked by presenter Joanna Gosling what she thought of Mr Miliband’s opinion that democracy did not end after the EU referendum vote and Brexit should be re-looked at, the Tory commentator was not impressed.

Question: Fed raises key rate and unveils plan to reduce bond holdings

The Federal Reserve has raised its key interest rate for the third time in six months, providing its latest vote of confidence in a slow-growing but durable economy. The Fed also announced plans to start gradually paring its bond holdings later this year, which could cause long-term rates to rise.
Continue Reading Below
The increase in the short-term rate by a quarter-point to a still-low range of 1 percent to 1.25 percent could lead to higher borrowing costs for consumers and businesses and slightly better returns for savers. The Fed foresees one additional rate hike this year, unchanged from its previous forecast. It gave no hint of when that might occur.
The Fed chose to raise rates again despite economic weakness at the start of 2017 and a further slowdown recently in inflation, which remains persistently below the Fed's 2 percent target rate. Fed officials reiterated their belief that that both inflation and economic growth will pick up.
The Fed's decision was approved on an 8-1 vote with Neel Kashkari, head of the Fed's Minneapolis regional bank, dissenting in favor of holding rates unchanged.
The latest rate increase, announced in a statement after a Fed policy meeting, comes as the U.S. economy is growing only sluggishly. Even so, many of the barometers the Fed monitors most closely have given it the confidence to keep gradually lifting still-low borrowing rates toward their historic norms.
In particular, hiring in the United States remains solid if slowing, with employment at a 16-year-low of 4.3 percent — even below the level that the Fed associates with full employment.
Continue Reading Below ADVERTISEMENT
The Fed's announcement that it would begin paring its balance sheet later this year — "provided that the economy evolves broadly as anticipated" — involves its enormous portfolio of Treasury and mortgage bonds. The Fed began buying the bonds after the Great Recession to try to depress long-term loan rates. That effort resulted in a five-fold increase in its portfolio to $4.5 trillion.
On Wednesday, the Fed said it would eventually allow a small amount of bonds to mature without being replaced — an amount that would gradually rise as markets adjusted to the process. This process could put upward pressure on long-term borrowing rates.
Under the plan it unveiled, the Fed would start with monthly reductions in Treasury holdings of no more than $6 billion and $4 billion in mortgage bonds. Those figures would rise in increments over a year until they reached $30 billion a month in Treasurys and $20 billion in mortgage bonds.
By using a gradual pace for reducing its bond holdings, the Fed hopes to avoid upsetting financial markets..
The Fed on Wednesday also issued updated economic forecasts that showed it still foresees one additional rate increase this year, to following Wednesday's increase and an earlier rate hike in March.
The rate forecast, based on the individual projections for each member, envisions three more rate hikes in 2018 and three more in 2019. By then, the Fed's forecast would put its key policy rate at 3 percent. That's the level the Fed believes is a neutral rate — neither stimulating economic growth nor restraining it.
But the Fed's forecasts are only predictions and are frequently revised as its assessments evolve.
The revised economic forecast bowed to reality by reducing its estimate for unemployment by year's end to 4.3 percent from a March projection of 4.5 percent. Unemployment has already reached a 16-year low of 4.3 percent.
The Fed kept forecast for economic growth this year of 2.2 percent, up slightly from its March forecast, with growth of 2.1 percent in 2018 and 1.9 percent in 2019. Those forecasts are far below the 3 percent annual growth the Trump administration has said it can achieve with tax cuts, deregulation and tougher enforcement of trade rules to protect American jobs.
The central also updated its projections for inflation to take account of a slowdown. It forecast that prices will rise just 1.6 percent this year, down from a March forecast of 1.9 percent. The Fed continues to project that prices, as measured by a gauge tied to consumer spending, will rise 2 percent in 2018 and 2019, achieving its target.
At the moment, uncertainty surrounds the membership of the Fed's own policy committee. President Donald Trump is expected soon to fill three vacancies on the Fed's influential board, and those new members, depending on who they are, could alter its rate-setting policy.
Some news reports have mentioned leading candidates to fill the vacancies. They include Randal Quarles, a top Treasury official in two past Republican administrations, for the vice chairman's job of overseeing bank regulation. Marvin Goodfriend, an economist at Carnegie Mellon University, has been mentioned for another board spot, and Robert Jones, chief executive of Old National Bancorp in Indiana, reportedly is a candidate for a board seat designated for a community banker.
The betting is that the administration will choose officials who will tilt the Fed toward a more "hawkish" stance. Hawks tend to worry that rates kept too low for too long could escalate inflation or fuel asset bubbles. By contrast, "doves" favor the direction taken under Chair Janet Yellen, favoring relatively low rates to maximize employment.
Yellen, the first woman to lead the Fed, is serving a term that will end in February. So far, Trump has sent conflicting signals about whether he plans to nominate her for a second term.

Question: Climbers set speed record on Yosemite's Nose of El Capitan

LOS ANGELES (AP)  Two climbers have set a speed record for ascending the famous Nose route of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, one of the world's most technical and dangerous verticals.
Alex Honnold and his climbing partner Tommy Caldwell on Wednesday raced up the nearly 90-degree, 2,900-foot (884-meter) precipice in 2 hours 10 minutes 15 seconds.
The pair broke the previous record set last October by nearly 10 minutes.
Fellow climber Hans Florine, who once held the Nose record, watched Wednesday's attempt from below. He says Honnold and Caldwell were moving so fast he knew by the halfway point that they would set a record.

Park Ranger Scott Gedimen congratulated the pair, calling them world-class climbers who work tirelessly to advocate on behalf of Yosemite and all public lands.

A 29-year-old Indian national fell to his death while ascending Yosemite National Park’s famous Half Dome trail, the US National Park Service has said.
Asish Penugonda, who lived in New York City, was hiking with friends up the steep north side of Half Dome in the park when he slipped from the cables and fell to his death, his roommate and close friend was quoted as saying by the Mercury News.
The hiker was on the trail’s Half Dome cables, the park service said in a statement. He was hiking with another person during thunderstorm activity around when he slipped and fell.
The cables take hikers up the last 400 feet to the summit of Half Dome, which rises nearly 5,000 feet above California’s Yosemite Valley.
Park Rangers were notified that the hiker had slipped and fallen from the popular hiking route, the statement said. Rangers arrived on the scene and provided assistance to the second hiker.
The Yosemite National Park Rangers recovered the victim’s body last Tuesday.
Asish was a graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University and worked as a biochemist with Siemens Healthcare, New Jersey. He was a native of Andhra Pradesh. His friends have created a ‘Go Fund Me’ campaign to help pay for his funeral in Fremont, transport of his body home to India, and assistance to his mother and elder brother, the report said.
This is the first fatality since 2011 from the cables up the granite dome and the first visitor fatality in 2018, according to information from Yosemite National Park. Half Dome is a granite dome at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California. It is a well-known rock formation in the park, named for its distinct shape. The slope of the Half Dome cables, which are 200 yards long, is about 45 degrees.

Question: Tax-code overhaul stalls with continued refusal of Trump to release returns

As a candidate, Donald Trump said he understood the United States’ tax laws “better than anyone who has ever run for president,” and he alone could fix them. But it is becoming increasingly unlikely there will be a simpler system, or even lower tax rates, this time next year.
WASHINGTON —
President Donald Trump’s promise to enact a sweeping overhaul of the tax code is in serious jeopardy nearly 100 days into his tenure, and his refusal to release his own tax returns is emerging as a central hurdle to another faltering campaign promise.
As procrastinators rushed to file their tax returns by Tuesday, the White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, emphasized again Monday that Trump had no intention of making his public. Democrats have seized on that decision, uniting around a pledge not to cooperate on any rewriting of the tax code unless they know specifically how that revision would benefit the billionaire president and his family.
And a growing roster of more than a dozen Republican lawmakers now say Trump should release them.
“If he doesn’t release his returns, it is going to make it much more difficult to get tax reform done,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, pointing out that the president has significant conflicts of interest on issues such as taxation of the real-estate industry and elimination of the estate tax. “It’s in his own self-interest.”
With Republicans sharply divided on a path forward and the administration unable to come up with a plan of its own, the Democratic resistance is only the newest impediment.
As a candidate, Trump declared that he understood the United States’ complex tax laws “better than anyone who has ever run for president” and that he alone could fix them. But it is becoming increasingly unlikely that there will be a simpler system, or even lower tax rates, this time next year.
The Trump administration’s tax plan, promised in February, has yet to materialize; a House Republican plan has bogged down, taking as much fire from conservatives as liberals; and on Monday, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told The Financial Times that the administration’s goal of getting a tax plan signed by August was “not realistic at this point.”
A tax overhaul could be the next expansive Trump campaign promise that falters before it even gathered much steam.
“If they have no plan, they can’t negotiate,” said Larry Kudlow, the economist who helped Trump devise his campaign tax plan. “In that case, tax reform is dead.”
The first pitfall for Trump was the debacle of his health-care plan, which burned political capital and precious days off the legislative calendar. But his administration saw repealing the taxes imposed by the Affordable Care Act as an important step that would allow for deeper tax cuts later. Trump even suggested last week that he might return to health care before tax cuts.
Republican leaders in Congress also failed to create momentum. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., built a tax blueprint around a “border-adjustment” tax that would have imposed a steep levy on imports, hoping to encourage domestic manufacturing while raising revenue that could be used to lower overall tax rates. But it has been assailed by retailers, oil companies and the billionaire Koch brothers. With no palpable support in the Senate, its prospects appear to be nearly dead.
Heading into a congressional recess, Ryan admitted that Republicans in the House, Senate and White House were not on the same page.
The president’s own vision for a new tax system is muddled at best. In the past few months, he has called for taxing companies that move operations abroad, waffled on the border tax and, last week, called for a “reciprocal” tax that would match the import taxes other countries impose on the United States.
But it is Trump’s own taxes that have provided the crucial leverage for his opponents. More than 100,000 of his critics took to the streets over the weekend in marches around the country, demanding that the president release his returns. Tax legislation, they say, could be a plot by Trump to get even richer.
“When they talk about tax reform, are they talking about cutting Donald Trump’s taxes by millions of dollars a year?” asked Ezra Levin, a member of the Tax March executive committee. “We don’t know.”
Beyond the politics of Trump’s returns, lawmakers do not want to pass an overhaul of the tax code that unwittingly enriches the commander in chief and his progeny. Those who are worried about conflicts of interest point to the potential repeal of the estate tax or elimination of the alternative-minimum tax as provisions that would enrich Trump.
Perhaps the most consequential concern relates to a House Republican proposal to get rid of a rule that lets companies write off the interest they pay on loans — a move real-estate developers and Trump vehemently oppose. Doing so would raise $1 trillion in revenue and reduce the appeal of one of Trump’s favorite business tools: debt.
Republicans argue that Democrats are putting politics before an opportunity to fix a broken tax system. Trump shot back at his critics on Twitter on Sunday, suggesting that the protesters had been paid and that they were sore losers.
On Monday, Spicer said that Trump remained under audit and that, breaking with 40 years of presidential tradition, his tax returns would not be made public.
“I think the president’s view on this has been very clear from the campaign, and the American people understood it when they elected him in November,” Spicer said.
Polls show that a majority of Americans, including most Republicans, would like Trump to release his tax returns, according to the Republican pollster Frank Luntz. However, the issue is a low priority for voters.
“You’re not going to change someone’s opinion of Trump merely by what’s in his tax returns,” Luntz said.
It remains unclear what effect the emphasis on Trump’s taxes will have on his aspirations of tackling the tax code. Schumer said he had no communication with the president about tax legislation and only minimal outreach from his economic advisers.
While Trump signaled that he would like to reach a bipartisan tax deal, potentially including an infrastructure plan, the focus on his tax returns suggests that any legislation will happen along party lines. That would mean that a more limited bill, requiring a simple majority, would need to pass the Senate through complicated budget rules that create a new set of problems.
With little appetite for bipartisanship, many veterans of tax fights and lobbyists in Washington expect that Trump will ultimately embrace straight tax cuts, with some cleaning up of deductions, and call it a victory. Even that would be difficult, with a narrow Republican majority in the Senate and a widening budget deficit.
Former Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan — a Republican who, as chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, released a tax plan in 2014 — said that if they wanted to get something done, lawmakers needed to brace for a more intense series of battles over the details of tax legislation than they faced during the failed health care effort.
“Obviously, there is a lot at stake here,” Camp said. “Health care is 20 percent of the economy, but tax reform is 100 percent of the economy.”

((This Sept. 19 story corrects paragraph 9 to say the estimated amounts to be raised are annual figures, not totals for the decade))
By Amanda Becker
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Trump administration may abandon its promise to repeal the U.S. estate tax on inherited assets in an effort to make a still-evolving Republican tax cut framework more politically feasible, according to sources familiar with the deliberations.
A so-called Big Six team of Republican tax package negotiators, including senior lawmakers and top Trump advisers, has been tight-lipped about the details that will be part of their plan, expected to be unveiled next week.
Republicans have long criticized the estate tax, saying it taxes hard-earned income a second time and hurts family-owned businesses and farms. Democrats say repealing it would be a windfall for only the wealthiest of taxpayers.
After months of debate about how to make good on a 2016 campaign promise to overhaul the tax code, Republican tax negotiators are in a bind. They have largely given up on a comprehensive revamp of the code and are now focused on a package of tax cuts for individuals and businesses.
To offset the revenue losses that would result from such cuts, they need new revenues and need to hold onto existing revenues to avoid expanding the federal deficit too much.
To that end, Trump administration officials have considered keeping the revenue-raising estate tax, which is levied on estate assets worth more than $5.49 million, or $10.98 million for married couples, according to those familiar with the talks, but not authorized to speak about them.
"There have been high-level discussions in the White House about giving up on repealing the estate tax," said a congressional aide.
The 40 percent estate tax currently affects just 0.2 percent of estates, or approximately 5,460 estates this year, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Institute, a think tank.
But the tax will raise between $25 billion and $34 billion annually over the next decade, the Congressional Budget Office has estimated.
A White House spokeswoman declined to comment on "rumors about internal deliberations," but said President Donald Trump "has made it clear that his priority is ensuring American workers get a pay raise" by making the tax code more competitive.
In a recent meeting between Trump, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, the president sought to make the case that his tax plan would not favor the rich. The Democrats pointed to the estate tax repeal, which was then included in the president’s plan, as one benefit for the wealthy, those familiar with the meeting said.
Though analysts had expected an estate tax repeal to take a back seat in the Republican tax push to other priorities, they cautioned that if the White House decides to abandon it, the plan would meet resistance from Trump's own party in Congress.
The Big Six team consists of Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, the National Economic Council's Gary Cohn, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and Senator Orrin Hatch and Representative Kevin Brady, who head the tax committees in their respective chambers.
Abandoning estate tax repeal would please many Democrats, but make it more difficult to push the tax package through the House of Representatives, where conservative Republicans are already wary of the hush-hush negotiations.
“I do think reform will include, if not outright repeal, then a substantial relaxation and modification of the estate tax rules," Deloitte’s Jonathan Traub told Reuters.
Republicans could tweak the estate tax by creating a higher exemption amount, lowering the rate, or a combination thereof. Or they could pursue a temporary repeal to preserve revenue without endangering the package's prospects, said analysts and a former committee staffer now in the private sector.
"There is this menu of items they want to pay for, the estate tax being one of them," said Cowen & Co's Chris Krueger, a Washington analyst. "It's the candy, not the broccoli."

Question: Melania & Ivanka Trump’s Black History Month Tweets

represent the article to find a fitting news title

Melania & Ivanka Trump tried to comment on Black History Month on Twitter, but some felt they were ignoring President Trump’s agenda. Read all the replies here!
Melania Trump, 47, and Ivanka Trump, 36, both tweeted about the beginning of Black History Month, despite their respective husband and father President Donald Trump, 71, not doing so, and Twitter absolutely roasted their messages as a result. In a criticized tweet, Ivanka wrote, “During #BlackHistoryMonth, we celebrate heroes like Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who were sojourners for freedom — and we resolve to continue to bring greater, equality, dignity, and opportunity to all Americans, regardless of race or background.” While many were quick to critique her use of the word “sojourner,” which means someone who only resides temporarily in a place, others called her out for her father’s links to and comments about the Alt-Right and her complicity in his administration. And some felt that Black History Month isn’t supposed to be about “all Americans.” Meanwhile, Melania wrote, “Today marks the start of #BlackHistoryMonth. Let this be a time to come together in a celebration of diversity.” To which, one Twitter user replied, “Have you met your husband?” Check out all the epic responses to their tweets below!
We reported earlier how Stephen Colbert, 53, slammed Trump’s State of the Union address on his Late Show program. Using footage from his 2017 address to Congress and audio, the late-night writers were able to make Trump say things like, “The state of our union is a mess. I believe strongly in lying, and lying, and lying,” and “I gave a lot of money to a porn star.”
In his actual 2018 State of the Union address, Trump shaded NFL players who have decided to protest systemic racism. While praising Preston Sharp, a 12-year-old who placed 40,000 flags of veterans, Trump said, “Preston’s reverence for those who have served our nation reminds us why we salute our flag, why we put our hands on our hearts for the pledge of allegiance and why we proudly stand for the national anthem.” Click here to see look-alike pics of Ivanka and Stormy Daniels!

And she has NO idea what the word "sojourner" means, clearly. A sojourner is a person who resides temporarily in a place. I have two more words for @IvankaTrump to learn: hypocrisy and racism. — (((Amy Selwyn))) (@amyselwyn) February 2, 2018

Almost four years after Greg Quesnelle was shot and killed in his girlfriend’s Cloverdale townhome, the man accused of his murder has been sentenced for the crime.
On Friday, April 20, in Supreme Court in New Westminster, Langley’s Barry McQuarrie was sentenced to 14 years, three months and nine days in federal prison. He was also handed down a lifetime weapons ban and must provide a DNA sample.
McQuarrie’s case was heard by a judge during a five-day trial last week.
A judge ruled that McQuarrie, 36, who is also known as ‘Bad Ass Barry,’ shot his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend, Gregory Quesnelle, 32.
Some of Quesnelle’s family flew to B.C. for the trial. Family members declined to comment following the sentence.
On May 12, 2014, just before midnight, RCMP responded to a report of a shooting inside a townhome at 176 Street and 57 Avenue.
Quesnelle was found injured inside the townhome and was rushed to hospital, where he died of his wounds.
McQuarrie spent two months on the run from police. He was captured while hiding in a Langley homeowner’s garage. The homeowner did not know him.
He has been in custody ever since. During his sentencing he received credit for time served.
Shortly after the murder, police identified McQuarrie as a suspect and released his picture to the media. Later, a man called CTV News, claiming to be McQuarrie.
The caller denied killing Quesnelle, but admitted the two were at odds over a woman and that he had pepper sprayed his rival in self-defence days before the murder.
“I didn’t go back and kill him,” McQuarrie told CTV.
“I just want them [the police] to know I’m not armed and dangerous. I’m not trying to hurt anyone. I’m just trying to stay out of jail.”
He said he planned on keeping his freedom as long as possible.
“I want to enjoy as much of the summer as I possibly can,” he said.
“When the time comes after the summer, maybe I’ll hand myself in. Maybe.”
Police confirmed through surveillance footage, that he had made the call from a pay phone in Aldergrove.
Court records show McQuarrie goes by a number of aliases, including Nicholas Randell McQuarrie, Richard Laary, Barry Bayer, ‘Bad Ass’ Barry, and just ‘Bad Ass.’
McQuarrie has a long criminal history in Langley, including causing a lockdown at Nicomekl Elementary school in June 2005 when police were searching for him in connection to the shooting of a 35-year-old Langley man.
Police stopped traffic on 200 Street and locked down the school after receiving a tip that McQuarrie was inside a nearby house. The tip turned out to be wrong. The operation involved dozen of undercover officers and emergency response teams.
READ MORE: A long history of crime
In July 2005, McQuarrie evaded capture for more than two weeks following a shooting in the 20200 block of 66 Avenue on June 18, 2005 that left a 35-year-old Langley man injured. The victim recovered.
McQuarrie was captured following a break and enter at a house, a short car chase and foot pursuit. Police dogs aided in the arrest.
McQuarrie was 24 at the time. Police warned the public that McQuarrie was a drug user whose behaviour had become increasingly irrational and violent.

Not a goal. Not an assist. Not a sound.\nNothing for hockey’s single most entertaining player.\nThis wasn’t just another of 82 NHL stops for McDavid in his third season. He doesn’t view it that way. This is home. This matters. This is where his people are. This is where his family and his old coaches and hockey friends come to see what they can get only on television. This is where he turns it up, just a notch — his level starts above the rest of the pack. This day, this night, this trip to the place he used to sit with his dad and watch games, means everything to him.\nAnd that’s how he played it Sunday night in a circle-the-calendar night on the Oilers schedule. He played it like no one else can play it. With Bobby Orr in the building watching Wayne Gretzky and Paul Coffey, too.\nThere have been all kinds of special players in hockey history. But Orr, McDavid’s agent, Gretzky, his Edmonton mentor, and Coffey, whom he has come to know, were the kind of players you couldn’t take your eyes off. You followed them the way the way we normally follow the puck. And McDavid is the No. 1 attraction in hockey, carrying the puck from behind his own net the way Orr once did, and using a speed only Coffey can understand and then finding those open around him, the way only Gretzky could.\nThat was a McDavid Sunday night — maybe as great as he’s ever been, even some Edmonton front office people were saying that — and both he and his snakebit Oilers had nothing to show for it. They were somehow shut out by the outplayed Leafs, shut out by the backup goaltender, Curtis McElhinney, who did the Dominik Hasek thing for one night of his career.\nMcDavid did just about everything. He created offence. He set up players. He used his speed to make the Leafs look helpless. He hit goal posts. He hit cross bars. He hit men open in the slot. He had a five-point kind of night with no points on the scorecard and how long can you do this and not be ready to explode?\nEspecially from a night in which he was on the hook for so many local tickets and he quietly complained — as many of us have — about the cost of buying Leaf tickets. This was McDavid’s most expensive night of the season and he left nothing for chance, except an inability all around him to find a way to finish.,\n“You want it to go on 5-10 minutes longer,” McDavid said afterwards, clearly shaken by the 1-0 defeat at the Air Canada Centre. “We didn’t have any luck tonight.”\nBefore that he said: “For a 1-0 hockey game, this was pretty entertaining.”\n[protected-iframe id="4d914a0352df14ff6d9a5410ccb31d3c-126506751-127512401" info="https://www.nhl.com/oilers/video/embed/post-game-raw--connor-mcdavid/t-277437406/c-55611603?autostart=false" width="540" height="360"]\nOf that, he was correct. For the Oilers, it was entertaining and heartbreaking. This was the best night of this Air Canada Centre season as pure entertainment, the game most fun to watch, the most surprising, the most entertaining. You watch this kind of game and you want to scream at the National Hockey League for its geography. Toronto and Edmonton play once a year here, once a year in Edmonton, and that’s it.\nAnd even on a night when Auston Matthews was missing and the matchup was missing and the father and son who walked in wearing the jersey of one young star and the jersey of the other, you wished there was hockey like this every night.\nThe NHL doesn’t need bigger nets or more scoring or even smaller goaltending equipment to be great. It needs more Edmonton and Toronto games.\n“Two pretty exciting teams when they’re going,” said Todd McLellan, the Oilers coach. It may happen one day in a Stanley Cup final. And if that doesn’t happen, we’ll all feel a little cheated along the way.\nGretzky never played Mario Lemieux in a playoff series. Sidney Crosby has yet to face Jonathan Toews. Matthews and McDavid: That would be hockey heaven, no matter what the result.\n“You don’t get anything for being close,” said McDavid, knowing how far down the Oilers are in the standings, knowing that every loss comes with the notion they are one game further away from qualifying for the playoffs. “We were the better team.”\nAn NHL without McDavid in the playoffs is a poorer league than it was last April. But there are four months yet to figure this all out.\n“This is nothing more than an Oilers-Leafs matchup,” he said before the game, even realizing those words didn’t necessarily ring true. It was more everything than just another game.\nMcDavid played it that way.

Question: Why The Government Can't Bring Terrorism Charges In Charlottesville

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

When Attorney General Jeff Sessions was asked how he viewed the car attack in Charlottesville, Va., here's how he responded:
"It does meet the definition of domestic terrorism in our statute," he told ABC's Good Morning America.
That certainly seems to suggest the government is looking into a possible terrorism charge against the suspect, 20-year-old James Alex Fields Jr. At Saturday's rally organized by white supremacists, a car slammed into counterprotesters, killing one and injuring 19.
But according to the Justice Department and legal analysts, it's simply not possible for the government to file charges of domestic terrorism, because no such criminal law exists.
The Patriot Act does define domestic terrorism, and under this designation, the Justice Department has broad powers to investigate, said Neal Katyal, a Georgetown University law professor who served as former President Barack Obama's acting solicitor general and as the national security adviser to the Justice Department.
He said the government has three basic ways to approach the Charlottesville case.
"No. 1, this is a hate crime, under the hate crime statutes," he said. "The second is that this is a conspiracy to deprive individuals of civil rights."
"And the third is, this is an act of domestic terror, which isn't itself a crime," he noted. In short, the government can't file a criminal charge of domestic terrorism, but so defining the incident does allow it to investigate not only an individual suspect, but also any group the suspect may be affiliated with.
In an email to NPR, the Justice Department made the same point.
The commonwealth of Virginia, meanwhile, has charged Fields with second-degree murder and other crimes.
The Charlottesville case has again spurred a discussion about describing far-right violence as terrorism. After the al-Qaida attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, terrorism was associated primarily with radical Islamist groups based abroad.
The State Department has a list of nearly 60 groups, all foreign, that are identified as terrorist organizations. The vast majority are radical Islamists. And the government can charge a person — American or foreign — with terrorism on behalf of these international groups.
Consider this hypothetical: If the Charlottesville attacker emerged from the car and said he was acting on behalf of the Islamic State, he could be charged with international terrorism, according to Katyal.
Inside the U.S., the political debate appears to be shifting, with growing numbers calling for far-right extremism to be identified as terrorism. But that's almost entirely a political discussion, not a legal one.
On the legal front, there's still a good deal of resistance to creating a criminal charge of domestic terrorism.
"It's an incredibly broad label," said Hina Shamsi, director of the national security project at the American Civil Liberties Union. "There's a real danger of the government criminalizing ideology, theology and beliefs rather than focusing on specific criminal acts."
She said creating a domestic terrorism charge could quickly raise all sorts of political questions about free speech and religion. The ACLU opposes any such law, believing it could be politicized and used, for example, against anti-war groups or environmental activists.
Back in 1995, when Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people with a truck bomb at a federal building in Oklahoma City, it was widely described as the worst act of domestic terrorism to that point.
Yet he was charged with, convicted of and executed for killing federal agents and other crimes — but not terrorism.
The government has historically used the term "terrorism" as a general description for a range of violent acts, including those by right-wing extremists, as well as environmental, anti-abortion and far-left groups. But the specific criminal charge is never domestic terrorism.
Another case came to light Monday, when the Justice Department announced it had arrested a man for allegedly attempting to set off a truck bomb in front of a bank in Oklahoma City on Saturday.
The bomb didn't detonate, the department said. But its description of the case is similar to McVeigh's attack, claiming the suspect, Jerry Varnell, 23, was angry with the government.
The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is leading what's being described as a "domestic terrorism investigation." Yet the formal charge against Varnell is "attempting to use explosives to destroy a building in interstate commerce."
Not terrorism.
