Question: Subway paleontology: LA construction unearths fossil trove

Represent this text to find a news title for it:

LOS ANGELES (AP) — As part of the crew digging a subway extension under the streets of Los Angeles, Ashley Leger always keeps her safety gear close by.
When her phone buzzes, she quickly dons a neon vest, hard hat and goggles before climbing deep down into a massive construction site beneath a boulevard east of downtown.
Earth-movers are diverted, and Leger gets on her hands and knees and gently brushes the dirt from a spot pointed out by a member of her team. Her heart beats faster because there's a chance she'll uncover what she calls "the big find."
Leger is a paleontologist who digs for fossils in the middle of a city rather than an open plain or desert. She works for a company contracted by Los Angeles transportation officials to keep paleontologists on hand as workers extend a subway line to the city's west side.
"They're making sure that they're recovering every single fossil that could possibly show up," Leger said of her team of monitors. "They call me anytime things are large and we need to lead an excavation."
Since work on the extension began in 2014, fossilized remains have routinely turned up from creatures that roamed the grasslands and forests that covered the region during the last Ice Age, about 10,000 years ago.
They include a partial rabbit jaw, mastodon tooth, camel foreleg, bison vertebrae, and a tooth and ankle bone from a horse.
But the discovery that still makes Leger shake her head in disbelief came about a year ago, shortly after construction began on the project's second phase. She was at home getting ready for bed when a call came in from one of her monitors.
"It looks big," he told her.
The next morning, Leger knelt at the site and recognized what appeared to be a partial elephant skull.
It turned out to be much more. After 15 hours of painstaking excavation, the team uncovered an intact skull of a juvenile mammoth.
"It's an absolute dream come true for me," said Leger, who spent the previous decade at a South Dakota mammoth site with no discoveries even close to the size of the one in Los Angeles. "It's the one fossil you always want to find in your career."
California's stringent environmental laws require scientists to be on hand at certain construction sites.
Paleontologists have staffed all L.A. subway digs beginning in the 1990s, when work started on the city's inaugural line, said Dave Sotero, spokesman for the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
Paying for the paleontologist staff from Cogstone Resource Management is factored into the project's cost, he said. When scientists are brought in to see what crews might have unearthed, work on the project continues, albeit in a different location.
"Our crews try to be as mindful as possible to help them do their jobs. We get out of their way," Sotero said, adding that when the mammoth skull was uncovered, construction workers helped deliver it to the mouth of the site.
From there, the skull was hauled a mile or so to Los Angeles' La Brea Tar Pits and Museum, home to one of America's most fossil-rich sites.
Assistant curator Dr. Emily Lindsey called it a "pretty remarkable find," noting that while thousands of dire wolf and saber-toothed cat remains have been uncovered in L.A., there have been only about 30 mammoths.
A few hundred pounds and the size of an easy chair, the skull is especially rare because both tusks were attached. It's being studied and is available for public viewing inside the museum's glass-walled Fossil Lab.
With a nod to Hollywood, the 8- to 12-year-old Colombian mammoth was named Hayden, for the actress Hayden Panettiere, featured in the TV series "Nashville" and "Heroes."
The Cogstone monitor at the construction site had been watching her on television before spotting the speck of bone that turned out to be the intact skull.
Similar endeavors have turned up subterranean treasures during digs in other cities.
Workers at a San Diego construction site found fossils including parts of a mammoth and a gray whale and multiple layers of ancient seashells.
Last year, crews working on a development near Boston's seaport uncovered a 50-foot (15-meter) wooden boat possibly dating as far back as the late 18th century.
Lindsey praised California's efforts to ensure science and urban development overlap, while bemoaning what bygone treasures may have been lost before the regulations went into place in the early 1970s.
"Most of the past is below the ground, so you're only going to find it when you dig," she said. "As the city grows, I'm sure we'll find more exciting fossil material."

CBS Local — Paleontologists say that “the force” is strong with a newly discovered fossil in Idaho. The 245 million-year-old remnants of a prehistoric horseshoe crab have been named after the infamous Star Wars character, Darth Vader.
Researchers from New Mexico and Colorado named the four-inch-long fossil Vaderlimulus tricki after noting how much the crab looked like the helmet of the sci-fi villain.
“Vaderlimulus… has unusual body proportions that give it an odd appearance,” study author Allan Lerner of the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science said in a press release.
The out-of-this-world fossil reportedly comes from the Mesozoic Era, when the landmass that’s now present-day Idaho actually had a coastline. While many crab fossils discovered are much older than the Vaderlimulus — some at least 470 million-years-old — scientists believe this Vader-shaped creature belongs to the Austrolimulidae family of crab, which is now extinct.

The Star Wars-themed name isn’t the first time scientists have reached into a galaxy far, far away for inspiration. Other creatures named for the movie’s characters include the Trigonopterus chewbacca (a tiny weevil discovered in New Guinea) and the Tetramorium jedi (an ant that lives in the rainforest of Madagascar).

Question: Rumor the German shepherd wins best in show at Westminster

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

NEW YORK (AP) — Quite a rally for Rumor — a commanding comeback for German shepherds, too.
Rumor was crowned America’s top dog Tuesday night when, a year after a near miss on the very same green carpet, she came out of retirement to win best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club.
Cheered loudly all around the ring by a packed crowd at Madison Square Garden, she’s just the second German shepherd champion at the event that began in 1877.
“Unbelievable,” handler and co-owner Kent Boyles said.
In a year that’s seen lots of late, startling twists in sports — think Patriots, Cubs and Cavaliers — Rumor pulled something of a shocker. She’d been at home in Wisconsin for months, a house pet headed toward having puppies, when she suddenly jumped back into the show ring in January.
Boyles is a fan of the Packers and star quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Seeing a pet go from the couch to this top prize, heck, that’s a dog world Hail Mary.
The 5-year-old Rumor beat out a Norwegian elkhound, a Pekingese, a miniature poodle, an Irish setter, a boxer and a Norwich terrier in the final ring. The Irish setter called Adrian finished second.
“The German shepherd standard talks about quality and nobility,” judge Thomas Bradley III said. “When you recognize it, it hits you at home, and that’s what it really is. She is just magnificent.”
Rumor is named for the hit song “Rumor Has It” by Adele, a champion herself after sweeping the major categories at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.
This was the 104th career win for Rumor, and earlier in the day, Boyles said that this would definitely, for real, be her last major show.
“She’s going to be relaxing for a while,” Boyles said after the win, but ultimately, there are “puppies in her future.”
Clearly the crowd favorite, Rumor came out flying into the best-of-seven final ring to fans whistling and calling her name.
Rumor raised up for a well-deserved treat right after the win. Moments later, as Boyles did post-show interviews, Rumor spotted him and ran toward the man who guided her to victory.
Rumor joined the fittingly named Manhattan in 1987 as the only German shepherds to go best in show at the Garden.
There were nearly 2,800 dogs entered in the 141st Westminster canine competition, spread across the 202 eligible breeds and varieties.
The moment any German shepherd steps into the ring at the Garden, the crowd goes crazy.
New Yorkers just love ’em.
Some say it’s because rooting for a German shepherd is the same as putting on an NYPD or FDNY hat, standing up for a dog that stood tall at a time of the city’s greatest need.
“My sentiments, exactly,” Boyles said.
While German shepherds hadn’t won a lot here, many of them were on the green carpet of the center ring in 2002 when Westminster honored search and rescue dogs for their tireless work at the World Trade Center and Pentagon following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The solemn tribute is considered by many the most cherished memory ever at Westminster.
“They’re loyal, dependable dogs that you can count on,” Boyles said.
Rumor nearly won Westminster last year. She came to town as the nation’s No. 1 show dog with more than 100 overall ribbons but was beaten in a surprise by a German shorthaired pointer named CJ.
In fact, when the judge began to announce his champion pick with “German sh…,” Boyles took a step forward, anticipating the prize.
“I was thinking,” Boyles said.
That was supposed to be Rumor’s last show, and she was set to head home with Boyles to Edgerton, Wisconsin, to be a house pet and have puppies. She didn’t conceive and late in the year, Boyles thought twice about Rumor’s retirement.
“She liked to show and was in good shape, so we thought, why not?” he said.
Rumor went back on the circuit in January for 10 shows. She won the herding group Monday night at the Garden, beating top show favorite Preston the puli.
She topped that with the ultimate win at America’s most prestigious dog show, rewarding the faith German shepherd fans always show in them.
“It’s a recognizable dog, people have liked them for a long, long time,” WKC President Sean McCarthy said earlier. “I think it goes back to Rin Tin Tin.”

Question: 650,000 fans at parade cheer Penguins for Stanley Cup win

PITTSBURGH >> The Pittsburgh Penguins Stanley Cup championship, the first an NHL team has won back to back in almost 20 years, spawned by far the biggest victory parade of any of the franchises five titles.
An estimated 650,000 people turned out along a downtown parade route that ended with a rally at Point State Park, city public works and public safety officials said Wednesday. A sunny day with temperatures in the 80s didnt hurt, as the smell of sunscreen was as pungent as the Penguins love in a city that boasts, officially, only 305,000 residents.
These guys are fierce competitors, coach Mike Sullivan told the crowd from a stage in the triangular park formed by the confluence of the citys three rivers. They just know how to win.
Roughly 400,000 fans attended last years celebration, which was the biggest for any of the teams Stanley Cup championships to that point.

The Penguins won the cup Sunday against the Nashville Predators with a 2-0 win in Game 6. And judging from signs and chants from the crowd, this championship was sweetened by the adversity the team overcame.
Playoff MVP and Penguins captain Sidney Crosby was knocked out for the better part of two games with a concussion against the Washington Capitals, and the Penguins played without their best defenseman, Kris Letang, who had neck surgery before the playoffs.
As the players took the stage to PPG Paints Arena announcer Ryan Mills introductions, fans also learned that Ian Cole, another defenseman, played through a broken hand and broken ribs. And Brian Bonino, who broke his leg blocking a shot but still finished Game 2 of the finals before missing the rest, hobbled around on crutches while taking selfies with fans.
A couple of bittersweet story lines punctuated the festivities: 40-year-old veteran Matt Cullen, who has won two Cups since joining the Penguins as a free agent last season, has hinted he might retire, prompting fans to chant, One more year! And, perhaps the best story of the playoffs was how former starting goalie Marc-Andre Fleury regained that job when rookie Matt Murray was injured during warm-ups in the first game of the playoffs. Fleury was in net for nine of the 16 victories the Penguins needed to win the Cup before Murray returned from injury to replace Fleury after a shaky third-round game against Ottawa and was in net for Pittsburghs final seven playoff wins.
Fleury, one of the most popular Penguins with fans and teammates, is likely to leave when the new Las Vegas franchise drafts its players or in an offseason trade.
Phil Kessel, another fan favorite since the Penguins acquired him from Toronto two seasons ago, drew some of the biggest cheers.
Fan Kristen Pearce, of Green Bay, Wisconsin, drove down to honor Kessel, a Wisconsin native, and was lucky enough to have him autograph her jersey and her sign, which read, We drove from Wisconsin to see our Stanley Cup champion!
Some fans lined up the night before, and most waited several hours for the parade to start.
Karla and Don Donahue drove 30 miles from Freeport to claim their seats in Point State Park at 2:30 a.m. This was the third victory parade for the Donahues, who also attended in 2009 and 2016.
Karla Donahue said if they arent at the games theyre watching on TV.
If were somewhere else, its on the radio, she said. We havent missed a game in years.
The Penguins also won the Cup in 1991 and 1992. They became the first team to repeat as champions since the Detroit Red Wings did it in 1997 and 1998.

ISTANBUL, Turkey – Thirty-nine people were killed in Istanbul on Sunday when a gunman went on a shooting rampage in an upmarket nightclub as revelers celebrated the New Year.
It was a bloody start to 2017 in Turkey, which has suffered a year of attacks by Islamic State jihadists and Kurdish militants and a failed coup against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Following are the worst attacks in Turkey over the past year:
ADVERTISEMENT
Nightclub terror
January 1: Seventy-five minutes after party-goers ring in the New Year, a gunman opens fire in the Reina nightclub on the banks of the Bosphorus, killing 39 people and injuring at least 65. The victims include nationals from several Arab states. Police have launched a manhunt for the assailant.
Ambassador assassinated
December 19: Russia’s ambassador to Turkey, Andrei Karlov, is shot dead at an Ankara art gallery by an off-duty policeman who claims he is acting to avenge the conflict in Syria, especially Aleppo. The government accuses the group of US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, blamed for the July 15 failed coup.
December 17: 14 soldiers are killed and dozens of other people wounded in a suicide attack targeting a military bus in the central city of Kayseri. The Kurdistan Freedom Falcons (TAK), seen as a radical offshoot of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), claims responsibility.
December 10: Forty-four people are killed, mainly police, and 166 wounded when twin bombings struck Istanbul after a football match hosted by top side Besiktas. TAK claims it was behind the attacks.
November 4: Nine people, including two policemen, are killed in a car bombing at a police station in Diyarbakir, the main city in the Kurdish majority southeast. It is claimed by Islamic State and then TAK.
October 9: Eighteen people are killed when a van explodes near a police post in the southeastern district of Semdinli, a bombing blamed on the PKK.
August 26: 11 police officers are killed in a suicide car bombing in Cizre, a mainly Kurdish southeastern town on the Syrian border, which was claimed by the PKK.
August 20: 57 people, 34 of them children, die in an IS-linked bomb attack on a Kurdish wedding in the Turkish city of Gaziantep near the Syrian border. Erdogan blames the IS group.
Coup
July 15: Two hundred and forty eight people are killed, not including the plotters, in a failed coup bid to oust Erdogan the authorities blame on Gulen who Ankara says runs a terror group. Gulen denies the charges.
Istanbul airport targeted
June 28: 47 people are killed, including foreigners, and over 200 injured in a triple suicide bombing and gun attack at Istanbul’s Ataturk airport. There is no claim of responsibility but authorities say evidence points to IS.
June 7: At least seven police officers and four civilians die when a bomb rips through a police vehicle near the historic centre of Istanbul. The TAK claims the attack and warns tourists to stay away.
March 19: Three Israelis and an Iranian are killed and dozens injured in a suicide bombing targeting Istanbul shopping thoroughfare Istiklal Caddesi. The authorities blame IS.
March 13: 34 people are killed and dozens wounded in a suicide car bomb attack in Ankara. TAK claims the assault.
February 17: At least 28 people are killed and about 80 hurt in a suicide bombing targeting the Turkish military in Ankara. The attack is also claimed by TAK.
January 12: Twelve German tourists are killed in a suicide attack by a Syrian bomber in Istanbul’s Sultanahmet district, the ancient tourist heart of the city and home of the Blue Mosque. The prime minister said the bomber belonged to IS.
PREVIOUSLY: In the bloodiest attack in Turkey’s history, 103 people are killed and more than 500 wounded on October 10, 2015, in twin suicide bombings targeting a pro-Kurdish peace rally in Ankara. The authorities say IS was the main suspect.

Question: New Zealand space launch scrubbed from remote launch site

represent this text to find a news title for it

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — A space launch was scrubbed Tuesday from a remote launch site in New Zealand after an engine glitch caused engineers to abort the flight.
The command to abort 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 was 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.”
It said in a statement that the weather was not expected to be favorable for a launch on Wednesday, so a new launch would be attempted “no earlier than” Thursday afternoon.
The 23-meter (75-foot) rocket had three satellites on board for Tuesday’s launch, each about the size of a shoebox.
Founded by New Zealander Peter Beck, the company last May reached space with its first test launch, only to abort the mission when a communication glitch occurred.
Rocket Lab has official approval to conduct three test launches and sees an emerging market in delivering lots of small devices, some not much bigger than a smartphone, into low Earth orbit.
The satellites would be used for everything from monitoring crops to providing internet service.
The company hopes to begin commercial launches next year and eventually launch one rocket every week.

Question: NNPC supplies two-year high gas for 3,492mw

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on Wednesday announced the attainment of a two-year record spike in gas supply to power generation, which hits 854.40 million Standard Cubic Feet of gas per day (mmscfd) for March 2018, translating to an equivalent power generation of 3,492MW.
Details of the March 2018 National Gas Production figures contained in the Monthly NNPC Financial and Operations Report for the period indicated a total national gas production of 253.06 Billion Cubic Feet (bcf), averaging 8,163.58mmscfd.
The Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, Mr. Ndu Ughamadu, made this disclosure in a statement.
The statement noted that the period to date Production from Joint Ventures (JVs), Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) and Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) amounted to about 69.82 per cent, 21.95 per cent and 8.23 per cent respectively.
A breakdown of natural gas off-take, commercialization and utilization showed that out of the volume of gas supplied in March 2018, a total of 152.60 bcf of gas was commercialized, comprising 40.52 bcf and 112.08bcf for the domestic and export market respectively.
This, the report says, translates to a total supply of 1,307.09mmscfd of gas to the domestic market and 3,615.62mmscfd of gas supplied to the export market for the month.
The report said 59.92 per cent of the average daily gas produced was commercialized while the balance of 40.08 per cent was re-injected, used as upstream fuel gas or flared.
“Gas flare rate was 10.55 per cent for the month of March 2018, that is, 867.10mmscfd compared with average Gas flare rate of 10.24 per cent or 804.14mmscfd for the period March 2017 to March 2018”, the report said. The rise in flare rate being a function of spike in gas production during the month.
The monthly report stated that about 3,236.82mmscfd or 89.52 per cent of the export gas was sent to Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas Company (NLNG) Bonny for March 2018 compared with the period (March 2017 to March 2018) average of 3,122.92mmscfd or 90.64 per cent of the export gas.
In the downstream sector, NNPC continued to ensure increased petrol supply and effective distribution of the product across the country.
The report said that in March, 2018, 2.49bn litres of petrol were supplied by NNPC, translating to 80.26million litres per day to sustain seamless distribution of Petroleum Products and zero fuel queue across the nation.
The monthly Financial and Operations report explained that NNPC was keeping an eagle eye on the daily Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), or petrol evacuation figures from depots across the nation, with, where necessary, the support of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) through existing Joint Monitoring Team.
According to the report within the period under coverage, pipeline break stood at 224, of which 25 pipeline points either failed to be welded or ruptured/clamped.
“Thus, 199 pipeline points were vandalized as against 125 recorded last month”, it stated.
PHC-Aba and Aba-Enugu pipeline segment accounted for 177 points or 88.94 per cent of the affected pipeline points, the report revealed.
The March 2018 edition of the Monthly NNPC Financial and Operations Report is the 32nd in the series.

Twenty-eight electricity generating companies in Nigeria have released an average of 3,632MW/hour of power on February 13, according to the website of the Nigerian Electricity Supply.
The report, obtained by the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday, however, indicated that the power sector lost an estimated N817 million on February 13 due to constraints of gas and water supply to the generating companies.
According to the report, the constraints for the day resulted in the loss of 1,462MW, while the reported grid constraint was zero MW and the water management constraint at 240MW.
On power sector reform activities, it indicated that the improvements in domestic gas supply resulted in lower gas constraints in Egbin, Transcorp, Omotosho I and II, Olorunsogo I and Ihovbor power stations.
According to the report, Afam VI is down by two turbines due to a circuit breaker problem at Alaoji T/S.
The report showed that there was an increase of 250MW/h in the entire power released by the stations as against the 3,382MW/h sent out on February 12.
The report further showed that Afam VI, a gas-fired power plant, sent out the highest electricity of 354 MWh for the day.
It further reported that the three hydro stations, Jebba, Kainji and Shiroro, sent out 331, 298 and 260 MWh of electricity each.

Question: Cook: Devante won’t be ‘given’ Wigan Athletic spot

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

Paul Cook has warned new-boy Devante Cole he will have to fight his way into the Wigan Athletic squad - let alone starting line-up.
Cole joined Latics on deadline-day from Fleetwood, for whom he’s scored 12 goals already this term.
But Cook admits Will Grigg and fellow January new-boy James Vaughan will take some shifting in the striking pecking order.
“Devante’s a player who a lot of clubs will have been monitoring,” said Cook.
“Possibly it was one we didn’t really have to do, because we’re in a great place.
“I’ve spoken to Devante and his father about the situation.
“He’s not one for the future, he’s one for today, but he’ll have to be patient.
“It’s not a case of ‘let’s get him into the team’, because the lads in the side have deserved their place.
“They deserve the opportunity to try and see this through – albeit with the help of a quality addition.”
Cole may make the bench for this weekend’s visit of Gillingham.
“People who know me know not to expect many changes,” added Cook.
“It’s all about repetition, and the players are in a good place at the moment.”

Question: The Latest: Woman faces more accusations in stadium protest

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Latest on Dakota Access oil pipeline protesters who unfurled a banner inside U.S. Bank Stadium during a Minnesota Vikings game (all times local):
10:30 a.m.
Police say a woman arrested following the hanging a Dakota Access pipeline protest banner from the roof of U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis during a Minnesota Vikings' game is suspected of burglary.
Police spokesman Officer Corey Schmidt said Monday that the 27-year-old woman is also accused of obstructing legal process.
Police haven't released details of her role in the incident Sunday afternoon during the Vikings' season finale against the Chicago Bears.
Two other people accused of sneaking onto a truss in the roof of the stadium and rappelling down to unfurl the banner have been arrested for trespass and burglary. Formal charges against the three are expected Tuesday.
The pipeline would carry oil from North Dakota to Illinois. Opponents fear it could harm the environment and American Indian artifacts. The pipeline developer disputes that.

Two other people accused of sneaking onto a truss in the roof and rappelling down to unfurl the banner have been arrested for trespass. Formal charges are pending.
The game wasn't interrupted, but eight rows of fans seated below the banner were cleared as a precaution.

Question: Neighbors On Edge After Three Violent Shooting Deaths In Atmore, Flomaton

ESCAMBIA COUNTY, Ala. (WKRG) — Two shooting deaths within a week, just miles from each other. One in Atmore, the other in the nearby town of Flomaton.
These two shootings happening within a week of each other and literally right down the road from each other. Folks in the area now telling us this has them on edge.
The most recent act of gun violence is hitting close to home for those in Atmore.
“One of the shootings, one of the two, was like within three blocks of where we live,” says Anthony Jones.
“It definitely concerns me with this much violence,” says Debra Phillips.
It was Saturday afternoon when police responded to this house on College Street in Flomaton, responding to a welfare check. That’s when they found Timothy and Susan Adams shot to death in their home.
Police telling us there was “trauma” in the house. They say the shooter was someone they knew.
And just 14 miles down the road was the scene of another shooting in Atmore just five days before.
That’s where Robert Kennedy and his girlfriend, Joi McClammy were sleeping when an intruder broke in around 3:00 a.m., demanded money and shot them. Robert Kennedy died from his injuries, McClammy was transferred to a Mobile hospital where she remains in critical condition. Kennedy’s cousin has a message for those who may know something.
“He’s terribly missed, and if anybody got any information about this, you can just tell a family member, we’re not going to broadcast it or get anybody in trouble. All we want is the person responsible for doing this to my cousin,” says Creg Johnson.
Meanwhile, the debate on gun laws is at the forefront of the minds of those in the community.
“But I think we do need guns in our homes these days to go and protect not only ourselves but our families because our families are our hearts,” says Phillips.
“I mean I would go to whatever extremes to protect my family. I’m not a violent person, I get along with anyone, but when it comes to my family, I have to do what I have to do,” says Jones.
We asked police in both Flomaton and Atmore if they thought these two cases might be connected. They said so far they see no connection whatsoever. Both cases are still under investigation.

Question: Who fancies a six-core, 128GB RAM, 8TB NVMe … laptop?

Dell’s started selling a pair of “mobile workstations” with specs that wouldn’t disgrace low-end servers.
Both the Precision 7530 and Precision 7730 can run a six-core Xeon E-2176M at 2.70GHz and can ship with up to 64GB of RAM (but can handle 128GB if Dell gets around to shipping 32GB DIMMs for the four-slot beasts).
The 7530 can pack three NVMe SSDs or two SSDs and one hard drive. The 7730 goes one better (four SSDs, or three plus one HDD). RAID 0, 1 and 5 are available on both. Factory configurations allow 2TB spinning rust inside, or NVMe PCIe solid state disks for those who value speed over capacity.
You can slip Radeon or NVIDIA GPUs inside too.
Prices start at non-terrifying levels: the 7530 starts at US$1,199 and the 7730 at $1,479.00. Once you ratchet the RAM, add disks and GPU you’ll struggle to stay under $3,000, but that’s not vastly more than the base price for a quad-core MacBook Pro that lacks RAID, has only one disk and boasts a CPU a generation behind the Dells.
The MacBook Pro does match the 7530 for screen size, but the 7730 is a 17-incher.
Dell’s new beasts can’t quite match portable workstation specialist Eurocom’s efforts, which are so weighty they’ve sometimes classed their batteries as uninterruptible power supplies!
The new Precisions instead make a virtue of being 14 and 15 per cent lighter respectively, compared to their predecessors. Dell’s also tossed in smaller AC adapters to make them more portable. Although at 2.6kg and 3.17kg their presence will be felt. Dell expects them to attract developers delving into virtual and/or augmented reality. The Register imagines plenty will also find their way into the hands of roving engineers who will doubtless be comforted by ruggedisastion to the MIL-STD 810G spec. ®

AR Rahman has almost never been in the news for purchasing big cars or expensive watches. But don’t let that fool you into believing that the Maestro doesn’t indulge. Every once in a while, AR Rahman will splurge on something so expensive that it will outdo all other celebs and their toys. The difference, of course, is Rahman likes to keep it quiet. Turns out that the Mozart of Madras recently got himself a custom-made computer that would put the best of the machines in the market to shame. Rahman’s new toy has been made by one Shatul Durlabhji. Shatul and his partner, Sharan, have been in the custom-made computer business for some years now and they specialize in overclocking PCs to fit client requirements. So much so that people in the music and gaming industry often turn to them for custom-made computers. Shatul, in fact, was recently in the news for collaborating with Asus to create the country’s fastest gaming computer (it can devour Witcher 3 and CoD: Advanced Warfare for breakfast and still have space for more). The music director duo Vishal-Shekhar and the gaming company, ESL are among Shatul’s clients.
Like most people in the industry, Rahman was using an imported MacPro but couldn’t shake off the feeling that it just wasn’t enough. So he approached Shatul and co and asked them to make a machine that would fit his requirements. “Rahman uses some really high-end audio processing softwares that demand faster processors and performance that a regular off-the-shelf machine wouldn’t deliver,” Shatul told GQ. And so they built him this:
Here’s what AR Rahman’s ridiculously expensive supercomputer boasts of:
Speed: The PC runs at a mind-boggling 4.3 GHz – faster than most top of the shelf market PCs which run at 3 GHz. It boasts of a total eight cores – ridiculously overclocked. As for RAM, it’s got a total of 120 GB (Yes, we’re talking about RAM and not hard-disk space)
Memory: 6 x 1 TB SSDs = 6 TBs in total (plus additional connectivity for more)
Chipset: Intel Core i7 5960 (Again, overclocked to 4.3 GHz)
Cooling and noise control: CoolerMaster custom water-cooling, plus Custom Noise Control restraining noise at 6,000 RPM to 35 decibels.
Connectivity: Dedicated Thunderbolt setup with six ports (a single Thunderbolt port can support two devices, meaning this monster can simultaneously connect up to 12 devices)
Benchmark: Putting it to test against the top-of-the-line Mac Pro.
MacPro: 32,000 with 12 cores; AR Rahman’s supercomputer: 44,000 with just 10 cores (performance boost of about 30-40 per cent)
So what does this monster of a supercomputer cost?
The basic system will set you back by Rs 5 lakh. Add to that the cooling systems and noice control that will cost you a cool lakh or two more. So if you’re looking to buy a computer like AR Rahman, ensure you have Rs 6-7 lakh set aside for nothing but this.
As for Rahman, going by his Facebook feed, it seems to us that the maestro may have just found a better use for his trusty Mac:

Question: Bomb strapped to man explodes in NY subway

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

NEW YORK — A crude pipe bomb strapped to a man inspired by the Islamic State group went off Monday in a crowded subway corridor near Times Square, injuring the man, slightly wounding three others and snarling the rush-hour commute for hundreds of thousands of New York workers.
Surveillance cameras captured the man walking casually through the crowded passageway when the bomb suddenly went off at 7:20 a.m. amid a plume of white smoke, which cleared to show the man sprawled on the ground and commuters fleeing in terror. Investigators said it was not clear if the bomb was set off intentionally or went off prematurely.
“This was an attempted terrorist attack,” Mayor Bill de Blasio told reporters. “Thank God the perpetrator did not achieve his ultimate goals.”
The suspect, who was identified as 27-year-old Akayed Ullah, was being treated at a hospital for burns to his hands and abdomen. The others who were injured suffered ringing in the ears and headaches.
Law enforcement officials said Ullah was inspired by the Islamic State group but had apparently not had any direct contact with the group. The officials said he lives in Brooklyn and came to the U.S. from Bangladesh about seven years ago on a visa. They said he was speaking with investigators from his hospital bed.
A person briefed on the investigation said Ullah came to the U.S. on an F-4 visa, a preferential visa available for those with family in the U.S. who are citizens or permanent residents, and that he made the bomb in his Brooklyn apartment. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the blast.
Investigators were searching his apartment, interviewing witnesses and relatives and looking for surveillance footage that may show his movements in the moments before the attack.
The explosion, which happened in an underground passageway under 42nd Street between 7th and 8th avenues, triggered a massive emergency response by police and firefighters both above and below ground, tangling subway and bus service at the nearby Port Authority bus terminal.
Everything around Times Square was shut down, halting what would ordinarily be a bustling rush hour at the “Crossroads of the World.”
Authorities said the bomb was a low-tech explosive device attached to the man with Velcro and plastic ties. They were investigating how it was made.
A photo published by the New York Post showed a bearded man crumpled on the ground with his shirt apparently blown off and black soot covering his bare midriff. A police officer was holding the man’s hands behind his back. Another photo shown on cable channel NY1 showed the bearded suspect, wide-eyed, on a stretcher being loaded into an ambulance.
Elrana Peralta, a customer-service worker for Greyhound, said she works in the Port Authority terminal complex near where the blast happened but did not hear the explosion.
“All we could hear was the chaos,” she said. “We could hear people yelling, ’Get out! Get out! Get out!”’
John Miles, 28, from Vermont, was waiting for a bus to Massachusetts. He did not hear the blast either, but saw police react.
“I didn’t know what was going on. Officers were running around. I was freaking out,” he said. There was an announcement that people should take their bags and leave. “They didn’t incite panic. It was fairly orderly.”
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tweeted that President Donald Trump had been briefed on the explosion. Instead of commenting on the suspected terror attack, Trump sent a tweet at 9:17 a.m. criticizing a Sunday story in The New York Times that said he watched cable news television for at least four hours a day.
The blast came just weeks after eight people died in New York when another man, also said to be inspired by the Islamic State, drove a rented truck onto a bike path near the World Trade Center.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said at a news conference following the attack that New Yorkers should be alert but go about their lives.
“Let’s go back to work,” he said. “”We’re not going to allow them to disrupt us.“

Question: Transgender Kansas teacher honored with award

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

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - A transgender teacher in Kansas has been named "National Educator of the Year" by the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network.
Wichita North High School music teacher Stephanie Byers came out as a transgender woman in 2014, The Wichita Eagle reported.
Byers said she decided to come out as a transgender woman just five years shy of possible retirement, despite her fears about what it could mean for her and those around her.
"There was an urgency to it, and I could no longer put it off," Byers said. "But there's still the fear, because you never know."
Byers said she didn't transition to be a pioneer or an advocate, but that she's become both.
The 55-year-old has in recent years met with school leaders, participated on panels about LGBTQ issues, talked with parents about gender identity, chaperoned a local "Day of Advocacy" and spoken at the state Capitol.
Byers said she's received "absolutely amazing" support from Wichita district officials and from North High Principal Sherman Padgett.
"People that I have never spoken to in this building came up and wrapped their arms around me to tell me how much they care for me and love me and were proud of me," Byers said. "It was very, very affirming."
Padgett said he nominated Byers for the award because she's "just an all-around great teacher and a great person."
"It would be great if we could get to the point where we can normalize the LGBTQ community," said Padgett. "She chose to live her true identity, and when that just becomes normal, that's when kids will realize they belong here just as much as everyone else."

Question: Charlottesville suspect accused of beating his disabled mother, threatening her with knife, 911 calls show

Represent this text to find a news title for it

James Alex Fields Jr., the driver charged with killing a woman at the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, was previously accused of beating his mother and threatening her with a 12-inch knife, according to transcripts from dramatic 911 calls released Monday.
Samantha Bloom, who is disabled and uses a wheelchair, repeatedly called police about her son, in 2010 and 2011, telling officers he was on medication to control his temper, transcripts from 911 calls show.
Records show that Fields was arrested and put in juvenile detention after his mother reported in 2011 that he stood behind her wielding a knife. Earlier in the year, she called 911 to say that her son was “being very threatening toward her” and that she didn't feel “in control on the situation,” according to a dispatcher’s notes obtained by The Washington Post.
In another incident in 2010, the mom said her son smacked her in the head and locked her in the bathroom after she told him to stop playing video games.
There was no indication in the records that he was arrested. Nine calls from the home to law enforcement have been logged since 2010, the Toledo Blade added.
Securitas Security Services confirmed it fired him from his job as a security officer after the Charlottesville crash. The company added that he was on "vacation" at the time, and performed his job "satisfactorily" while he was employed there.
FIELDS' MOTHER TOLD HIM TO PROTEST 'PEACEFULLY'
Fields, 20, was accused of ramming his car into a crowd of counter-protesters on Saturday in Charlottesville, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer.
Fields, described by a former high school teacher as an admirer of Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany, was charged with second-degree murder.
A judge denied him bail Monday after the public defender's office said it couldn't represent him because a relative of someone in the office was injured in Saturday's protest. Fields was assigned a local attorney, and another hearing was set for Aug. 25.
Related Image Expand / Collapse
Also Monday, a former classmate told The Associated Press that on a school trip to Europe in 2015, a teenage Fields couldn't stand the French and said he only went on the trip so that he could visit "the Fatherland" -- Germany.
"He just really laid on about the French being lower than us and inferior to us," said Keegan McGrath.
McGrath, now 18, said he challenged Fields on his beliefs, and the animosity between them grew so heated that it came to a boil at dinner on their second day. He said he went home after three or four days because he couldn't handle being in a room with Fields.
The incident shocked McGrath because he had been in German class with Fields for two unremarkable years.
"He was just a normal dude" most of the time, though he occasionally made "dark" jokes that put his class on edge, including one "offhand joke" about the Holocaust, McGrath said.

Question: Nova Scotia punches ticket to Scotties Tournament of Hearts semifinal

Nine consecutive wins for Team Nova Scotia in Penticton at the South Okanagan Events Centre
Mascots kept the crowd entertained between ends at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts Saturday at the South Okanagan Events Centre. Mark Brett/Western News
By Matthew Abrey
Special to the Penticton Western News
Mary-Anne Arsenault and her Nova Scotia rink just keep on winning at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Penticton.
The Dartmouth-based rink brought down Tracy Fleury and Team Northern Ontario by a 6-2 score, winning their staggering ninth match in a row, earning a berth in Sunday’s semifinal.
“It was so nice to put a really good game together,” said Arsenault, who has played in the Scotties 13 times. “I’m so proud of my girls. They played awesome and anytime we were in a little bit of trouble, (they) would make a double and we were back.”
Arsenault blanked the first three ends keeping the hammer for the fourth where she opened the scoring. She managed to expertly draw around the high-sitting guards with her final two stones to lay two, giving her Nova Scotia rink a 2-0 lead going into the fifth end.
Fleury earned one back in the fifth by picking and rolling across the inner blue rings to lay one, cutting Arsenault’s lead to 2-1.
Arsenault fired right back making a pair of tight draws into the inner rings through a cluttered upper house to lay three in the sixth end — extending her lead to 5-1.
Fleury blanked the seventh, then drew to the button in the eighth to cut into Arsenault’s lead. However, her Nova Scotia rink still found themselves down 5-2 heading into the ninth end.
The ninth end featured a jam-up heading into skips’ final shots. Fleury cleared the jam-up with her last stone of the end, but Arsenault hit and stuck her hammer shot to further pad her lead at 6-2.
The teams decided to play the 10th end, even though Arsenault had a sizeable lead, but did not play the entire length. They shook hands with four rocks remaining after Northern Ontario couldn’t keep enough stones in the house to justify finishing the end.
“We would have liked to have played better,” said Fleury, whose rink went 8-3 in tournament play. “But Nova Scotia played amazing and we just had some key misses. They played well and put a lot of pressure on us.”
Arsenault is now two wins away from giving Team Nova Scotia its first Scotties Tournament of Hearts national title in 14 years. Nova Scotia will play the loser of Saturday night’s Page Playoff, between Manitoba and Team Wild Card, in the semifinal at 9 a.m. at the South Okanagan Events Centre to determine who will move on to the final. The winner of the Saturday night 7 p.m. draw will move directly to the final, which takes place at 4 p.m. on Sunday.
The HeartStop Lounge, located at the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre, will feature the final on one of their giant-screen TV’s on Sunday, the other will be playing the Super Bowl. Tickets are not required to take in the action at the HeartStop Lounge.
For ticket information for the rest of the 2018 Scotties Tournament of Hearts draws, go to www.curling.ca/2018scotties/tickets/.
The 2018 Scotties Tournament of Hearts All-Star teams were also released, and are presented as follows:

Third – Cary-Anne McTaggart
Second – Jill Officer – Manitoba
Lead – Dawn McEwen – Manitoba
2nd Team:

And at the fifth end break, Team Saskatchewan skip, Sherri Anderson, was presented with the Marj Mitchell Sportsmanship Award, which honours the player that most exemplified sportsmanship and dedication to curling throughout the tournament.

Score it one for the home side and one against to kick-start the Humpty’s Champions Cup at Calgary’s WinSport Arena.
Chelsea Carey topped Team Fujisawa, of Japan, 7-2 in Tuesday night’s first draw of the major event, the final stop of Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling. Calgary’s Carey stole two and three points respectively in the fourth and fifth ends to take the victory over the Olympic bronze medallists.
Meanwhile, on the men’s side, Kevin Koe of The Glencoe Club lost 6-3 to Jason Gunnlaugson, of Winnipeg. Steals of one in the second and sixth ends spelled the difference for the Gunnlaugson rink in a victory over the home side.
The other men’s game saw Saskatoon’s Colton Flasch roll up a 7-4 triumph over Marc Pfister, of Switzerland.
The other women’s winners on Night 1 were Players’ Championship victor Jamie Sinclair, of the U.S., and Scotland’s Eve Muirhead. Sinclair’s score of two in the seventh end and steal in the eight capped a rally to top Olympic gold medallist Anna Hasselborg, of Sweden, 4-3. Muirhead, meanwhile, took down Delia DeJong of Grande Prairie in an 8-2 blowout.
The best and brightest curling stars from around the globe are in Calgary for the six-day event. In fact, the who’s-who field is comprised of 15 men’s and 15 women’s teams who have claimed victory this season. The 30 teams will compete in a round-robin style bonspiel, contending for a combined $250,000 purse.
Round-robin action runs through to Friday with teams split into three pools, and the top eight overall qualifying for the weekend playoffs. Draws go at 8:30 a.m., noon, 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. Wednesday through Friday.
Among the feature matches of Wednesday’s early draw, Brad Jacobs, of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., faces Rich Ruohonen, of Seattle, and Edmonton’s Val Sweeting meets Winnipeg’s Kerri Einarson.

Question: Trump and Tillerson: Who speaks for America?

President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson were both addressing drug smuggling and immigration across the southern US border.
But their stark difference in tone during separate Friday meetings underlined a divide that has some asking: "Who speaks for America?"
Trump was in Virginia, meeting border protection officers and calling for harsher measures to deal with those "pouring in from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, all over."
Tillerson was on the Mexican leg of a Latin American tour, talking to local officials about a shared effort to combat international organized crime on both sides of the border.
At the Border Patrol National Targeting Center, Trump also heard about US efforts to partner with Latin American countries to stem the flow of drugs and illegal migrants.
But his response was scathing: "And what are Mexico and Colombia and these other countries -- what are they doing about it? Nothing? Do you think they're really trying?"
President Donald Trump said at the Border Patrol National Targeting Center that the US is spending billions of dollars in aid to partner countries while "they're pouring drugs into our country" MANDEL NGAN, AFP
Trump claimed that the United States was spending billions of dollars in aid to partner countries "and they're pouring drugs into our country and they're laughing at us."
And he explicitly linked the threat of drug gangs in America to migration from south of the border, underlining that this is the reason he is seeking to reform immigration law.
- 'Not helpful' -
The night before Trump's latest outburst, Tillerson had dined in Mexico City with his Mexican counterpart Luis Videgaray and senior Mexican military and intelligence leaders.
And, as Trump was speaking, he was following up with three-way talks with Mexico and Canada on cross-border trade and law enforcement and hearing concerns about immigration rules.
Tillerson too stressed the importance of fighting the "transnational criminal organizations" Washington says are behind the opioid drug epidemic and violent crime on both sides of the border.
But he was careful to acknowledge that the United States has its own share of responsibility in having provided a market for drugs and allowing guns to be smuggled south to the cartels.
And, unlike Trump, he praised Mexico's efforts.
"So this is a joint effort that is very, very active, it is very robust, and we intend to maintain this effort well until we have resolved this problem," he told reporters.
So, is it a robust joint effort, or are the United States' Latin American friends not really trying?
This was not the first time Tillerson's diplomatic efforts abroad have been undercut by Trump's declarations at home.
Last year when Tillerson was in China and talking about holding open diplomatic channels to North Korea, Trump tweeted that he was "wasting his time."
Tillerson has also distanced himself publicly from the president at least once, saying that Trump was speaking "for himself" when he defended far-right demonstrators.
But, since reports last year -- denied by the administration -- that Tillerson had privately called Trump a "moron," officials have stressed they are on the same page.
Friday's conflicting remarks, however, suggested that the difference in tone is not simply a good cop-bad cop act.
Onboard Tillerson's plane from Mexico to his next set of delicate meetings in Argentina, one US official told reporters the president's remarks were "not helpful."
The secretary's closest aides would not criticize Trump directly, but stressed that Tillerson's more optimistic message reflects official US foreign policy.
Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Steve Goldstein said of Trump's remarks: "Different people speak different ways but the policy hasn't changed.
"And the secretary spoke about US foreign policy today," he added, noting that Tillerson felt he had made progress on deepening cooperation with Mexican authorities.
"We leave here feeling that we accomplished a great deal. We have more to do, but we're all on the same page and heading towards the same goal," Goldstein said.
Reform of America's immigration laws, including DACA, an initiative to shield hundreds of thousands of undocumented people brought to America as children, is not Tillerson's job.

But, representing America in Mexico, he felt the need to acknowledge the "value of those people" and admit that it is "painful" for migrants to be living in uncertainty.
Or, as Goldstein described it later: "The secretary today in his meetings was stating US foreign policy as it relates to these issues, and he has respect for all people."
- Mixed signals -
In Washington, foreign diplomats often complain of mixed signals from the administration, between the White House, the US mission at the United Nations and the State Department.
Columnists have started to suggest the United States has two policies, Trump's "America First" versus Tillerson and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis' cultivation of alliances.
Foreign leaders, wary of the disruptive effect of Trump's impulsive tweets, are careful not to publicly take sides.
But, when Tillerson addressed a news conference with Videgaray and Canada's foreign minister Chrystia Freeland, his international colleagues' choice of language was notable.
"I want to highlight the role and leadership of Secretary Tillerson, who has been instrumental to achieving this, and to bring our countries closer," Videgaray said.
And Freeland dubbed Tillerson, in words it is hard to imagine a foreign leader using about Trump, "an incredibly important voice in maintaining the rules-based international order."

LONDON — Donald Trump was elected president on a platform of politics not as usual, so it is fitting he inherits a world in flux.
Post-World War II rules are dying, old alliances shifting and traditional roles shed. Trump has said he distrusts foreign entanglements and the state-building ambitions of his predecessors, and takes the reigns of an America much less eager to act as the world's policeman.

So the new administration will be in a position to rewrite international rules, whether it's the relationships with Russia and China, North Korea's nuclear program, the U.S. approach to the Syrian civil war, or the global war on terror.

Question: AP Interview: Iran says if US exits deal, it likely will too

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

NEW YORK (AP) — Iran's top diplomat warned the Trump administration on Tuesday that a U.S. withdrawal from the nuclear deal would undermine talks with North Korea by proving that America reneges on its promises, telling The Associated Press that Iran would "most likely" abandon the deal as well.
In a wide-ranging interview, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said his country would no longer be bound by international obligations imposed as part of the landmark 2015 accord, freeing up Iran to resume enrichment far beyond the deal's strict limits. He said any move by President Donald Trump to re-impose sanctions lifted under the deal would "amount to basically killing the deal."
"If the United States were to withdraw from the nuclear deal, the immediate consequence in all likelihood would be that Iran would reciprocate and withdraw," Zarif said. He added: "There won't be any deal for Iran to stay in."
As Trump prepares for a high-stakes summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un aimed at resolving nuclear weapons concerns, Zarif emphasized that U.S. credibility was at stake. He said Iran would welcome lower tensions on the Korean Peninsula, but that Trump was showing the world that the U.S. is "not a trustworthy, reliable negotiating partner."
"They're prepared to take everything that you've given, then renege on the promises that they have made in the deal," Zarif said. "That makes the United States a rather unlikely partner in any international agreement."
Iran has been working feverishly to frame Trump's expected withdrawal as a major blot on the United States, just as America's closest allies in Europe try to persuade the president not to rip it up. As Zarif spoke in New York on Tuesday, Trump was meeting at the White House with French President Emmanuel Macron, who has been leading an effort by France, Britain and Germany to find "fixes" to the deal that would satisfy Trump's objections.
Few expect such a solution can be found by May 12, the date on which Trump has said he'll leave the deal if there's no fix agreed to with the Europeans. U.S. and European officials say they've made major progress on two of Trump's demands — on nuclear inspections and Iran's ballistic missiles program. But talks have stalemated on Trump's third demand: that the deal be extended in perpetuity, rather than letting restrictions on Tehran to "sunset" after several years.
"No one knows what I'm going to do on the 12th, although Mr. President, you have a pretty good idea," Trump said, referring to Macron. He said if he does withdraw, he would look to see "if it will be possible to do a new deal with solid foundations, because this is a deal with decayed foundations."
In a bleak warning to Tehran, Trump added that if Iran ever threatens the United States, "they will pay a price like few countries have ever paid."
Iran has outright rejected any changes to the deal, arguing that it's unfair to impose more demands beyond what Tehran agreed to already. Trump's strategy relies on the assumption that if the U.S. and the Europeans unilaterally agree to new demands, Iran will back down and voluntarily comply in order to continue enjoying the benefits. Under the 2015 deal brokered by President Barack Obama and world powers, Iran agreed to nuclear restrictions in exchange for billions in sanctions relief.
And even if a so-called add-on deal with the Europeans is achieved, there is no guarantee it will satisfy Trump. His closest aides have said they can't predict with certainty what conditions would be enough to keep him in the pact.
Iran has long insisted its nuclear program was peaceful and not oriented toward building weapons. Yet in the interview, Zarif suggested that those concerned that Tehran was racing toward a bomb would have much more to fear if it were no longer bound by limits on its enrichment and processing.
"It would be a completely different situation, from the perspective of those who made a lot of noise about Iran's nuclear program to begin with," he said.
He also pointed out that if Trump upends the nuclear deal, Iran could also choose to leave the global Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which is aimed at stopping the spread of nuclear weapons. Iran signed that treaty decades ago, and though Zarif said Iran's government isn't advocating an exit, it is "one of the options that is being advocated by some" in Iran.
Zarif spoke to the AP at the official residence of Iran's ambassador to the U.N., alongside Central Park. The top Iranian diplomat is in the United States this week on a long-shot bid to try to salvage the deal, while laying the groundwork for the United States to bear the blame on the global stage if Trump ultimately pulls out.
Addressing the conflict in Yemen, he said Iran is urging "everybody" to stop attacking civilian areas — including the Houthis. The Iran-backed Shiite rebels control much of Yemen and have been lobbing missiles at Saudi Arabia, which is leading a coalition fighting the Houthis with support from the U.S.
The United States and others insist that Iran is illicitly funneling missiles and other weapons to the Houthis, a charge that Tehran has repeatedly denied. U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley has paraded missile parts ostensibly recovered in Saudi Arabia in front of reporters and U.N. Security Council diplomats, arguing that they bear markings and other characteristics proving their Iranian origin.
"I'm not saying Ambassador Haley is fabricating, but somebody is fabricating the evidence she is showing," Zarif said.
As Trump pushes to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria as soon as possible, Zarif gave no signs that Iran plans to do the same. The Iranian military advisers and Iran-backed Shiite militias aiding Syrian President Bashar Assad are a profound concern for the United States and its closest Mideast ally, Israel.
"We are there as long as that objective needs our presence, and as long as the Syrian government asks us to be there," Zarif said.

Trump’s sharp comments came shortly after Iranian president Hassan Rouhani reportedly warned of “severe consequences” if the administration “betrays the deal.”
“I am telling those in the White House that if they do not live up to their commitments … the Iranian government will firmly react,” he said, according to Reuters. “If anyone betrays the deal, they should know that they would face severe consequences.”

Shortly after the pomp and pageantry of Trump’s first official state visit began on Tuesday, his split with Macron on the Iran nuclear deal was on display.
The White House has hoped to enlist European allies in new negotiations with Iran, but Europeans are pushing back on the idea of canceling the agreement, saying it would alienate Iran and prompt it to go rogue. Macron believes it would be a mistake to end the deal.
“We made this terrible deal, but we’re going to discuss it,” Trump said.
In May, Trump will once again have to decide whether to recertify the Iran deal to Congress. If he doesn’t, he could begin the process to reversing the deal. Iran has threatened to resume enrichment activities if the deal collapses.
Macron said Tuesday the Iran deal needed to be discussed in the broader context of the region.
“We have a common objective,” Macron said. “We want to make sure there’s no escalation and no nuclear proliferation in the region. We now need to find the right path forward.”

Question: Canadian financial companies funding overseas coal plants as feds push phase-out

OTTAWA — Canada's national pension fund manager is among a group of Canadian companies that are undermining the federal government's international anti-coal alliance by investing in new coal power plants overseas, an environmental organization says.
Friends of the Earth Canada joined with Germany's Urgewald to release a report today looking at the top 100 private investors putting money down to expand coal-fired electricity — sometimes in places where there isn't any coal-generated power at the moment.
The report lists six Canadian financial companies among the top 100 investors in new coal plants in the world. Together, Sun Life, Power Corporation, Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec, Royal Bank of Canada, Manulife Financial and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board have pledged $2.9 billion towards building new coal plants overseas.
Urgewald tracks coal plants around the world and reports there are 1,600 new plants in development in 62 nations, more than a dozen of which don't have any coal-fired plants now.
While Environment Minister Catherine McKenna is claiming to be a global leader on phasing out the dirtiest of electricity sources, private investors are "undermining that commitment," says Friends of the Earth senior policy adviser John Bennett.
Canada and the United Kingdom last month teamed up to launch the Powering Past Coal Alliance, trying to bring the rest of the world on side with a campaign pledge to phase out coal as a power source entirely by 2030 for the developed world and 2050 for everyone else.
Twenty national governments and at least seven subnational governments — five of them from Canada — signed onto the alliance last month. The hope is to grow the number to 50 by the time the United Nations 24th climate change conference takes place in November 2018.
McKenna will meet with leaders and officials from the alliance this week in Paris, where French President Emmanuel Macron is hosting a climate change meeting to mark the two year anniversary of the Paris climate change accord. This meeting is largely focused on international climate finance as the world tries to meet the goal to have $100 billion a year to invest in climate change mitigation and adaptation projects in the developing world by 2020.
The accord commits the world to keeping the average global temperature from rising more than two degrees Celsius over pre-industrial levels by the end of the century. To do that, scientists suggest global carbon emissions have to start dropping in less than three years, and the only way that is going to happen is by shutting down coal plants.
Coal is responsible for almost half of global carbon dioxide emissions.
McKenna's office did not respond to a request for comment.
Last week, McKenna was in China where she said she was talking about phasing out coal. While China is trying to cut its own coal use, it uses more coal to make power than the rest of the world combined. Hence, McKenna said it's currently impossible to expect China to commit to eliminating it.
McKenna said she wasn't planning to raise the issue of China investing in new plants outside its borders. Urgewald's data show Chinese-owned companies are behind about 140 new coal plants in development outside China.
Turns out Canadian money is also financing international coal plants, through private investors.
Dale Marshall, national program manager for Environmental Defence, said the Paris meeting this week has a lot of work to do trying to figure out how national governments can increase their commitments but also leverage more from the private sector.
Erin Flanagan, director of federal policy for the Pembina Institute, said Canada can do more to discourage Canadians from investing in coal and encourage investments in clean energy. That could include a national requirement for investment companies to include climate change risks when publishing decisions about investment opportunities.

Trudeau must act on Trans Mountain pipeline promise — April 11
The evidence of our destabilizing climate continues to mount across Waterloo Region, where residents recently braced for what Environment Canada anticipated as a potentially historic ice storm — this after extreme heat and flooding events this past year. The costs of climate change are increasingly obvious to us in this region. The solutions are also well known: we must reduce greenhouse gas emissions dramatically by pricing carbon, transitioning to renewable energy, using energy efficiently, and slowing the extraction and use of fossil fuels.
That's why Canada's intention to proceed with the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline expansion — a project that would serve to expand Alberta's tarsands production — is so alarming. Increasing emissions from the tarsands represent almost 60 per cent of the total projected growth in Canadian emissions between 2010 and 2030, completely undermining Canada's commitment to reduce emissions by 30 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030.
Instead of supporting pipelines that lock us into increasing emissions and climate crises, Canada can demonstrate leadership by phasing out fossil fuel subsidies, winding down fossil fuel extraction, and investing in a low carbon future. This pipeline is not in the national interest — rapidly reducing emissions while respecting Indigenous communities is.
