http://youtu.be/C8iitYylCco A Japanese sea known for its often clear waters turned into a gruesome shade of red after a beer factory sprung a leak. Residents in the city of Nago on the island of Okinawa woke up to find the port area looking rather “venomous” on Tuesday. Video footage shared on Twitter showed the large body of water with a deep red color, leaving many alarmed. “The red does look venomous, but it’s a relief to learn it’s just food coloring and not likely to cause major damage,” a Twitter user wrote. The usually clear blue water changed color after a beer plant owned by Orion Breweries Ltd sprung a leak.

http://youtu.be/L354qTpPuu4 An Amtrak train carrying 190 passengers derailed Wednesday after striking a truck on tracks in Southern California, and only minor injuries were reported, authorities said. Three of the train's seven cars went off the tracks following the collision in Moorpark, said Ventura County Fire Department Captain Brian McGrath. The number of people hurt wasn't immediately known, but all the injuries were characterized as minor, McGrath said. Parts of the demolished truck were still on the tracks, while other sections lay near the derailed train cars. The truck's driver had only minor injuries and it appears he got out before the collision, McGrath said. The derailed train cars remained upright on a section of track adjacent to an orchard and bare sections of land. ...

http://youtu.be/o0RnSQ0zecU A woman fell overboard from the 10th deck of a Royal Caribbean cruise ship Sunday and survived following a dramatic hour-long rescue in front of concerned passengers.

All five people on board the Titan sub died during its deep-sea exploration on June 18. “United States medical professionals will conduct a formal analysis of presumed human remains that have been carefully recovered within the wreckage at the site of the incident,” the Coast Guard said in a statement.

http://youtu.be/51QwvAIDwQw President Biden’s younger brother revealed Wednesday that he has spoken to the commander in chief about using psychedelic drugs to treat addiction — and that the 80-year-old is “very open-minded” about it. Frank Biden told Michael Smerconish, host of SiriusXM’s “The Michael Smerconish Program,” that his battle with alcoholism led him to explore the possibility of whether psychedelics — including LSD, ketamine and ayahuasca, which he referred to as “the godfather of them all” — could be used as medicine to treat mental health issues that lead to addiction. “I have done a great deal of research, because I’m a recovering alcoholic for many, many years,” the 69-year-old first brother told Smerconish. “I have looked into, as a result of doing lots of research, ...

http://youtu.be/IOfwyjFzmH8 A South Dakota state representative bizarrely claimed that the state’s Mount Rushmore is a “Freemason shrine,” and a demonic portal for communism. Joe Donnell, who represents South Dakota’s District One in the state legislature, said during an appearance on the Now Is The Time podcast that his oddball revelation about the iconic national monument came from “The Lord.” “If you go back and do some history on Mount Rushmore, it actually is a Freemason shrine,” Donnell says in a viral video clip of the podcast posted by Right Wing Watch. “What the Lord has revealed to me is that Mount Rushmore has a direct ley line to Washington, DC.” Donnell then went on to explain the nefarious significance of a “ley line” — which is described as a path of spiritual energy th...

http://youtu.be/xXq23pjbDCY Bill Gates’s private office reportedly asked some female job candidates about their sexual histories — whether they ever had extramarital affairs and even if they had explicit pictures of themselves on their phones. During Gates’s extensive screening process, a security firm also asked some women if they ever “danced for dollars,” sources told The Wall Street Journal. Another candidate told the outlet that she was asked whether she had ever contracted a sexually transmitted disease.

http://youtu.be/-o9qQWIyjAY Mayor Eric Adams did not take kindly to one of his constituents wagging her finger at him and criticizing him for the city’s new rent increase rules Wednesday, likening her behavior to that of a plantation owner. The showdown took place at a community conversation event Adams hosted at Gregorio Luperon High School for Science and Mathematics in Washington Heights. In footage from the meeting, Adams can be heard asking the woman to stand up after she interrupts him to call out that he “raised the rent.” Adams’ administration came under fire last week, when the Rent Guidelines Board voted to allow rent hikes of up to 6 percent on the Big Apple’s one million rent-stabilized apartments. After Adams insisted that he “does not control the [Rent Guidelines Board,”...

http://youtu.be/axTOsJ661mw One of Russia's top generals - who allegedly supported last weekend's short-lived rebellion - has not been seen in public since Saturday. General Sergei Surovikin, pictured here with President Vladimir Putin, is the deputy commander of Russia's military operations in Ukraine. According to U.S. officials, Surovikin had been sympathetic to the weekend rebellion but Western intelligence did not know with certainty if he had helped it in any way. A report in the Moscow Times suggests the general has now been arrested. Mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin's shocked the world on Saturday when he launched an armed revolt, bringing his Wagner Group fighters to within 125 miles of Moscow... before abruptly calling off the uprising. As the rebellion began, Surovikin po...

http://youtu.be/91dGNrede4I NASA has invented a system in which both astronaut urine and sweat are made into safe drinking water while up and away in the final frontier of space. “The team acknowledges that the idea of drinking recycled urine might make some people squeamish,” according to the space agency. “But they stress that the end result is far superior to what municipal water systems produce on the ground.” Currently being tested onboard the International Space Station, the Urine Processor Assembly “recovers water from urine using vacuum distillation.” From there, the system “produces water and a urine brine that still contains some reclaimable water” as it undergoes another process to “extract” the remaining wastewater.

http://youtu.be/m0KolTsXmjY An underground transformer erupted beneath the iconic Tiffany’s building in Midtown Thursday morning – engulfing the outside of the structure in thick gray smoke. The blaze, which stemmed from an electrical vault, broke out around 9:30 a.m. – causing plumes of heavy smoke to surround the newly refurbished building on Fifth Avenue near East 57th Street – located right next to Trump Tower, FDNY officials said. “It was an underground transformer, either overheating or some type of electrical issue,” FDNY Battalion 8 Chief Richard Blasi told reporters in Midtown. “It’s an outside transformer fire, which had nothing to do with the [Tiffany’s building]. It was isolated. All we had to do was stand by and make sure there was no extension until ConEd cut the power ...

http://youtu.be/xjc2gjKHU-8 President Biden implored colleges and universities Thursday to consider applicants’ socioeconomic status and their experience with overcoming adversity — including racial discrimination — after the Supreme Court ruled that race cannot be used to determine who is admitted. “Today I want to offer some guidance to our nation’s colleges,” Biden said at the White House shortly after the ruling. “What I propose for consideration is a new standard where colleges take into account the adversity a student has overcome when selecting among qualified applicants.” The Supreme Court ruled in lawsuits against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina that using race as a qualification violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. The Harvard ca...

http://youtu.be/k9lgNZ3amnc Dylan Mulvaney on Thursday blasted Bud Light for giving “customers permission to be as transphobic and as hateful as they want” by abandoning the trans influencer following backlash over the disastrous tie-up. The social media star finally broke her silence with an emotional Instagram video to her 1.8 million followers, tearfully revealing that she has been “ridiculed in public” and has “felt a loneliness that I wouldn’t wish on anyone.” “For a company to hire a trans person and then not publicly stand by them is worse than not hiring a trans person at all,” Mulvaney, 26, said in the clip. The comments come a day after Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth refused to say whether the company would ever work with Mulvaney again. The Belgian beer giant has suffe...

http://youtu.be/u8n0v16fcxM The number of arrests rose to 150 following the shooting death of a 17-year-old delivery driver by police in a Paris suburb, said Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Twitter on Thursday, June 29. He also said at least 40,000 police officers, including 5,000 in Paris, will be deployed across France this evening for possible demonstrations. People took to the streets in several parts of the country including Nanterre, Lyon, Lille, Toulouse, and Viry-Chatillon over the shooting of Nahel M. in Nanterre early Tuesday. They set fire to vehicles, bins and public property in some areas. In the cities of Toulouse and Lille, protesters threw rocks at police officers, who responded with tear gas to disperse them. Nahel M., 17-year-old delivery driver, was shot d...

http://youtu.be/u9w7oIBZLxI Dramatic video captured the moment panicked passengers ran for their lives aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship hit by a freak storm — which sent deck furniture flying as it prepared to leave a Florida port. The Independence of the Seas was about to embark on a voyage from Port Canaveral to the Bahamas about 4 p.m. June 16 when heavy rain and violent winds slammed the 15-deck, 1,112-foot-long vessel.

United Talent Agency CEO Jeremy Zimmer admitted that he wasn’t surprised about Spotify’s breakup with Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan Markle, 41. “Turns out Meghan Markle was not a great audio talent, or necessarily any kind of talent,” Zimmer told Semafor during the Cannes Lions advertising festival. “And, you know, just because you’re famous doesn’t make you great at something.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/06/26/meghan-markle-is-not-a-great-talent-uta-ceo-amid-spotify-deal-bust/ #meghanmarkle #spotifypodcast #jeremyzimmer The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/CmCRMjIC_ic We all know the basic rules of flying: No smoking or using electronic cigarettes on the aircraft. Phones should be switched to airplane mode. Wear a seatbelt while seated. And, of course, respect fellow travelers’ space. But one TikTok user was horrified when a fellow passenger didn’t adhere to the last, finding a man in front of her was touching her with his bare feet. Tivona, who posts on TikTok under @teatinz, was on a flight recently when she felt something graze her leg. Looking down, the 24-year-old was horrified to see a man’s foot poking out from under her seat — which she noted in her 12-second video — were “cold” and bare.

http://youtu.be/oBnizabune8 Former CNN host Don Lemon spoke about his commitment to the “truth” in his first TV interview since being axed – saying he doesn’t believe in “platforming liars and bigots” and putting them on the “same footing as people who are abiding by the Constitution.” Lemon, 57, who was ousted in April from the ratings-challenged network after 17 years, sat down for an interview with ABC24 Memphis on Saturday. “I have a responsibility — not only as a journalist but as an American — to tell the truth and to abide by the promises of the Constitution,” he told the outlet. “Because the Constitution says a more perfect union, not a perfect union. I’m not a perfect person. No one is. Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/06/26/don-lemon-speaks-out-about-responsibility-to-t...
