Crusaders stunned by Chiefs' second-half blitz in Christchurch

29 days ago 1News

The Chiefs have announced themselves as a huge Super Rugby Pacific threat by scoring 24 second-half points to thrash the Crusaders 31-10 in Christchurch tonight. ADVERTISEMENTFor the Crusaders, hoping to send off coach Robertson and first-five Mo’unga on a high note this year, there was little to cheer about. David Havili stretches out to score for the Crusaders against the Chiefs at Orangetheory Stadium. The only sour note for them was the departure of Anton Lienert-Brown in the second half due to an ankle injury. Chiefs 31 (Brodie Retallick, Sam Cane, Nankivell, Cortez Ratima tries; Damian McKenzie 4 cons, pen)ADVERTISEMENTCrusaders 10 (David Havili try; Richie Mo’unga dropped goal, con)Halftime: Crusaders 10-7

Expedia allows friends to book holiday at non-existent Tongan resort

And, six months later, when Wendy Smyth was able to book at a beach resort on the mainland, she didn't give it a second thought. ADVERTISEMENTUsually Wendy would give the hotel a credit card on arrival, but this time she prepaid - and paying upfront - would prove costly. Wendy had to get her credit card out and pay more - all up perhaps $2500. After multiple emails, Expedia told Wendy it couldn't reach the resort to discuss her booking. Wendy is happy she can clear her credit card and accepts Expedia's apology, though she still thinks it owes one to Tonga as well.

Protest-backing football star's family kept from leaving Iran

Protest-backing football star's family kept from leaving IranFormer Iran's national football coach Ali Daei. (Source: Associated Press)A prominent former football player in Iran who has expressed support for anti-government protests says his wife and daughter were prevented from leaving the country on Monday after their plane made an unannounced stopover en route to Dubai. He said his daughter was released, but the doors to the flight were closed by then. Iran has arrested a number of Iranians with dual nationality in recent years and convicted them of state security offences in closed-door trials. Rights groups say such detainees are denied due process and accuse Iran of using them as bargaining chips with the West, something Iranian officials deny.

Mistrial declared in actor Danny Masterson's rape trial

A judge declared a mistrial today after jurors said they were hopelessly deadlocked at the trial of That ’70s Show actor Danny Masterson, who was charged with three rapes. Masterson, 46, was charged with the rape of three women, including a former girlfriend, in his Hollywood Hills home between 2001 and 2003. The jury foreman said only two jurors voted for conviction on the first count, four voted for conviction on the second count and five voted to convict on the third count. But at the Masterson trial, as at the Haggis trial, the #MeToo implications were largely eclipsed by the spectre of Scientology, despite the judge’s insistence that the church not become a de facto defendant. Cohen told jurors they could acquit Masterson if they thought he "actually and reasonably believed" the women consented to having sex.

Libyan accused in 1988 Lockerbie bombing now in US custody

A police officer walks by the nose of crashed Pan Am flight 103 in 1988. American authorities in December 2020 announced charges against Masud, who was in Libyan custody at the time. Though he is the third Libyan intelligence official charged in the US in connection with the attack, he would be the first to appear in an American courtroom for prosecution. The New York-bound Pan Am flight exploded over Lockerbie less than an hour after takeoff from London on December 21, 1988. He also said the operation was ordered by Libyan intelligence and that Gadhafi thanked him and other members of the team after the attack, according to an FBI affidavit filed in the case.

Carmel Sepuloni appointment positive for NZ - Pacific leadersCarmel Sepuloni (file image). (Source: rnz.co.nz)Leaders in the Pacific community believe the appointment of the country's first deputy prime minister of Pacific descent will bring positive change. Incoming Prime Minister Chris Hipkins - who is taking over the reins from Jacinda Ardern just nine months away from the general elections - chose Carmel Sepuloni as his deputy yesterday. "Carmel being a Tongan, Samoan woman as deputy prime minister, is a profound contribution in my opinion to eliminating negative stereotypes and reducing unconscious bias against us.

Discarded cigarette butt, DNA tests solve 52-year-old US murder

After he returned he told his wife of two weeks not to say that he had been out. In 2014, previous investigators had sent the butt and other evidence off for DNA analysis. The test did compile a DNA profile of whoever had smoked the cigarette, but it did not match any samples in DNA databases compiled by law enforcement. They had spoken with investigators after Curran's death, but at the time they said they had not seen or heard anything. Burlington detectives later interviewed a subsequent wife who told them DeRoos had a penchant for sudden outbursts of violence.
