Hundreds Injured, At Least 1 Dead As New Jersey Train Crashes Into Hoboken Station At High Speed

A train accident at Hoboken Station early Thursday morning has left hundreds injured, and details only seem to be getting worse.1

According to eyewitness and first responder reports, the New Jersey commuter train ran full speed into the Hoboken terminal and off the tracks at around 8:38 a.m. EST after failing to brake, seriously injuring the engineer as well as passengers.

Unfortunately, the crash caused the station's roof to collapse as well, potentially injuring other commuters as well.

It's currently unclear whether this was an operator or system error, but officials do not believe this was a deliberate attack of any kind.

While initial reports suggested a "mass casualty response" from EMS, only one fatality has been confirmed as of yet.

Fulani Herdsmen who kidnapped Catholic Priest in Enugu demand for N2.5 million ransom

Some Catholic priests were attacked by Fulani Herdsmen in Enugu State on Sept 26th, (Read here). According to reports, the priests Rev Fr Chetanna Jude Chukwuneke, Fr Emmanuel Dim and Fr Prof Ezeokana were in a car passing along Obimo in Uzo-Uwani when the suspected herdsmen emerged from a bush in a bad spot of the road, and attacked. While Fr Chukwuenke and Fr Prof Ezeokana escaped, Fr Emmaniuel Dim was abducted. A 2.5 million Naira ransom has now been demanded before he is released.

This was revealed today by the Director of Communications at the Nnewi Catholic Diocese, Rev. Fr. Hygi Aghaulor. According to him, the kidnappers of Rev. Fr. Dim - the Rector of Fr. Tansi Major Seminary in Onitsha, Anambra, have demanded a ransom for his release. Aghaulor confirmed that Dim was kidnapped around 7 p.m while the three catholic priests were returning from Nsukka to Onitsha and Nnewi.

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference has however directed that no ransom be paid. Aghaulor requested that Nigerians join hands to pray the priest's release.

“We call on people of goodwill to continue to pray for the immediate release of the Vincentian priest. We are tempted to wonder if Nigeria is on the verge of collapse. All over the country, women are being raped and intimidated, innocent Nigerians are being slaughtered,’’ Aghaulor said.

DO YOU DRINK COFFEE IN THE MORNING ON AN EMPTY STOMACH?

A lot of people around the world drink coffee immediately after they awaken. And we all love those sunny days, once we can hang out inside the garden or inside the closest coffee shop and drink coffee with these friends. Well yes, you‘re absolutely right, when it comes to drinking coffee. It’s very beneficial and helpful for the human body, but – you shouldn’t drink it on empty stomach, especially in the morning.

First, you need to know that by drinking a cup of black coffee, with an empty stomach – early each morning, will increase the amount of hydrochloric acid within your digestive tract. Well, this means that if you suffer from gastritis, then you’ve probably felt this. This hydrochloric acid is really harmful to the food with your stomach. So, when you eat something heavy, this acid can cause some digestive problems, because it might cause a

difficult digestion of proteins. So when protein isn’t fully decomposed and absorbed, it may lead with other digestive issues, for example : bloating, inflammation from the bowel, irritation and might cause a colon cancer.

Rob Kardashian TWEETS Kylie Jenner's number as he blasts family for not inviting Blac Chyna to bash

If you thought the Kardashian-Jenners and Blac Chyna had buried the hatchet, think again.

A furious Rob Kardashian appeared to post sister Kylie Jenner's mobile number on Twitter on Monday night.

At first, fans thought the reality star had been hacked, but he then revealed his family hadn't invited fiancee Blac Chyna to the baby shower they had planned for him.

"Kylie's #," he wrote alongside a 10-digit number, before adding, "I ain't hacked either this is rob dog lol."

The 29-year-old then posted the number again before fuming: "Didn't invite the Mother of my child to a baby shower you all were trying to throw for me? You all must have lost your damn minds."

Hillary Clinton was the clear winner of first presidential debate

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump faced off on Monday in the first of three presidential debates before Election Day on November 8.

Despite featuring two of the least liked candidates in modern history, the 90-minute debate was expected to draw a record number of viewers across multiple networks, including NBC, CNN, and Fox.

Monday night's showdown, moderated by NBC's Lester Holt from Hofstra University in Long Island, was divided into six 15-minute segments, though the segments often went over the time allotment.

The topics were "America's Direction" (the state of the union), "Achieving Prosperity" (the economy), and "Securing America" (national security and foreign policy).

Angela Davis: ‘There is an unbroken line of police violence in the US that takes us all the way back to the days of slavery’

“There is an unbroken line of police violence in the United States that takes us all the way back to the days of slavery, the aftermath of slavery, the development of the Ku Klux Klan,” says Angela Davis. “There is so much history of this racist violence that simply to bring one person to justice is not going to disturb the whole racist edifice.”

I had asked the professor, activist, feminist and revolutionary, the woman whom Richard Nixon called a terrorist and whom Ronald Reagan tried to fire as a professor, if she was angered by the failure of a grand jury to indict a white police officer for shooting dead an unarmed black man, Michael Brown, in Ferguson, Missouri earlier this year. “The problem with always pursuing the individual perpetrator in all of the many cases that involve police violence,” the 70-year-old replies, “is that one reinvents the wheel each time and it cannot possibly begin to reduce racist police violence. Which is not to say that individual perpetrators should not be held accountable – they should.”

We’re talking at the Friends Meeting House in London before a memorial service to her friend and colleague Stuart Hall, the black British cultural studies theorist and sociologist, who died in February. It was Hall, she tells me, as much as her mentor, the German Jewish philosopher Herbert Marcuse, who made her think about the structural issues in any given political struggle.

The simple strategy one man used to save enough money to retire at 30

In 2005, Peter Adeney — better known as Mr. Money Mustache — retired at 30 years old.

Leading up to retirement, Adeney and his wife, Simi, both software engineers, stashed two-thirds of their combined $134,000 take-home pay in savings. After just 10 years in the workforce, the couple had accrued about $600,000 in investments and paid off a house worth $200,000, Adeney told Nick Paumgarten of The New Yorker, giving them a solid cushion to retire on.

It wasn’t an easy road to financial independence, but Mr. Money Mustache reached his goal by adopting a simple strategy that anyone can put into practice: Incorporate challenges into your routine.
