Police respond to ‘serious’ collision involving bus at Horseshoe Bay

Russia is shelling out $250,000 to give Lenin’s Mausoleum in Moscow a facelift, blaming the usual suspects—structural wear and tear and the relentless march of time. The iconic red granite tomb, where Lenin’s embalmed body has been on display since 1924, is due for repairs to keep it standing (and presentable) for future visitors.

Editor’s Note: Lenin’s tomb isn’t just a relic—it’s a political lightning rod. For some, it’s a sacred Soviet symbol; for others, a creepy holdover from a bygone era. The renovation underscores Russia’s complicated relationship with its Soviet past: preserving history while sidestepping deeper debates about whether it should be preserved. Plus, in a country where budgets are tight, dropping a quarter-million on a communist landmark might raise a few eyebrows.

A rogue hawk that was causing chaos in the village of Flamstead—dive-bombing residents and generally being a menace—has finally found a peaceful resolution. A local falconer took the bird in, and it’s reportedly mellowed out since then. No more terror, just a happy (or at least calmer) ending for both the hawk and the villagers.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just a quirky animal story—it’s a reminder of how human-wildlife conflicts can sometimes have simple, humane solutions. Instead of resorting to drastic measures, the falconer’s intervention turned a scary situation into a win-win. Plus, who doesn’t love a good "villain gets rehabilitated" tale?

A disturbing new video shows a 28-year-old man violently attacking TSA agents at Miami International Airport. Shockingly, authorities reveal this wasn’t his first incident—he allegedly assaulted a passenger on a Copa Airlines flight just the day before but somehow avoided arrest.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another airport scuffle—it raises serious questions about how a known aggressor slipped through the cracks. If someone can attack a passenger one day and TSA agents the next without immediate consequences, it’s a red flag for gaps in both airline and airport security protocols. Travelers deserve to feel safe, and incidents like this erode trust in the systems meant to protect them.

Tonight’s IPL Eliminator between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI) is a high-stakes showdown with both teams battling injuries and shaky form. GT’s Shubman Gill and MI’s Hardik Pandya will be under pressure to deliver, especially with batting lineups that haven’t been at their best. The pitch in Mullanpur—plus possible rain—could shake things up, but strong bowling attacks might steal the spotlight.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another IPL game—it’s a knockout. The winner stays in the hunt for the title, while the loser’s season ends. Player absences and weather add unpredictability, making it a must-watch for fans who love drama. Plus, it’s a test of leadership for Gill and Pandya, both fighting to prove they can rally their teams when it counts.

Myanmar's rebel forces recently pulled back from the strategic town of Lashio after weeks of fierce fighting with the military junta. Sources suggest the retreat was tactical—possibly to regroup or avoid civilian casualties—rather than a sign of defeat. The junta claims victory, but analysts warn the conflict is far from over, with rebels still holding key territories elsewhere.

Editor’s Note: Lashio is a major trade and transport hub, so control over it is a big deal in Myanmar's ongoing civil war. The rebels' retreat doesn’t necessarily mean they’re losing—it could just be a strategic pause. But it does highlight how messy and unpredictable this war has become, with civilians caught in the middle and no clear end in sight.
