In the news

This is rather touching - the Judge in what is clearly a difficult case his written his findings etc in a manner which the kids in the case (and possibly the mother) can easily process: http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWFC/HCJ/2016/9.html

This doesn't make much sense:

She shouted for help but local people did not immediately assist because they believed it to be a scene in the soap.

Brazilian authorities told O Globo that the spot they had chosen to go swimming is “one of the most dangerous areas in the town” and usually avoided by locals.

So, locals see that they're swimming in a dangerous spot and think it's a scene in the soap opera?

A 7.5 tonne lorry driver who passed too close asked "what cyclist?"

Surely that is driving without due care or attention? If you have totally failed to see a vulnerable road user who you could easily have killed or seriously injured, you should not be in charge of a vehicle.

The initiative is great though.

In about 98% of cases [the collision] was down to driver action, it was nothing to do with the cyclist.

I've just heard the bomb in New York being described as "an international act, but not related to terrorism". What does this mean?

(Is it just their way of blaming someone forrin?)
