  Indian authorities have launched a search operation after a piece of mountain glacier broke off, sending a massive flood of water and debris crashing into two dams and sweeping away roads and bridges. At least 200 people are missing and nine bodies have been recovered so far, Surjeet Singh, a police official told the Associated Press, adding that a desperate operation has been launched to rescue some 17 people trapped in a tunnel.     Officials said a portion of the Nanda Devi glacier broke off in Uttarkhand state's Tapovan area on Sunday morning, damaging the Rishiganga and Dhauliganga hydropower projects as well as homes in the area.      Some houses were also damaged in the flooding, according to a government spokesman.

  Diddy is taking his former clothing company, Sean John to court for using his image, likeness, and persona without his permission. The Hip Hop mogul has filed a $25 million lawsuit against his former clothing brand, Sean John, and the company’s new owner Global Brand Groups USA, according to  All Hip Hop . According to a complaint filed last Thursday, Sean John, which has launched a new women’s clothing line with the brand Missguided, used the mogul’s image, likeness, and persona without his permission. Combs founded the company in 1998. He sold stakes to GCG USA in November 2016 for an estimated $70 million and still owned 20 percent, according to Forbes.

His image was also included in a 40-second video campaign in promotion of the new collaboration. Jonathan D. Davis, Comb’s lawyer, says he di...

Former US President, Donald Trump has been banned from ever rejoining the Screen Actors Guild—American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. This came after SAG-AFTRA President Gabrielle Carteris and the national board approved a disciplinary hearing against Trump which was held on Saturday February 6. This resulted in Trump being barred from rejoining the union because of the way he treated members of SAG-AFTRA during his presidency and “his antagonism of the union’s journalist members and disregard for the values and integrity of the union”.  On Sunday February 7, SAG-AFTRA passed a resolution to preemptively deny any potential readmission applications from Trump.  SAG-AFTRA President Gabrielle Carteris said in a statement;    "Preventing Donald Trump from ever rejoining SAG-AFTRA is more than a symbolic step. "It is a resounding statement that threatening or inciting harm against fellow members will n...

The Biden administration’s decision is the last hurdle standing in the way of Ms. Okonjo-Iweala assuming the top job at the WTO, after South Korea’s Yoo Myung-hee pulled out. Last year, Ms. Okonjo-Iweala was supported by a majority of WTO members, but the Trump administration backed Ms. Yoo, saying she was better qualified.
