'King's horses take free rein through London'
Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
  • A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.

  • The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

  • Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.

  • The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

US, Israeli officials fear most hostages held by Hamas are dead — report
Quick Glance: Biden Administration's Cease-Fire Efforts Under Scrutiny
  • The Biden administration's aspirations to end the war in Gaza and progress towards a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine hinge on securing a temporary cease-fire and the release of Israeli hostages.

  • The U.S. strategy focuses on halting the conflict momentarily, aiming for subsequent cease-fires, hostage releases, humanitarian aid, and the reconstruction of post-war Gaza under Palestinian Authority.

  • Arab involvement, particularly from Saudi Arabia, is pivotal in negotiations to push Israel towards considering a separate Palestinian state amidst escalating tensions.

  • With no contingency plan in place, pressures from potential Iranian strikes and the condition of the hostages in Gaza intensify the urgency for a breakthrough in the cease-fire discussions.

Want to catch a rare glimpse of an Everest-sized comet?
Quick Glance: Return of the 'Devil Comet' after 71 Years
  • The green, horned 'Devil comet' is now visible in Australian skies, offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see a unique celestial body.

  • The comet, whose nucleus has a 34km diameter, has been likened to Halley's comet due to its molecular structure and was nicknamed 'Devil comet' due to eruptions from its nucleus.

  • The 'Devil comet,' also known as 12P/Pons-Brooks, becomes more visible as it gets closer to the sun due to its hot icy core and gas trail. It will be at its brightest on 22 April, but finding it might be challenging as it competes with the full moon.

  • Experts suggest initially spotting the comet with binoculars or a telescope, although it will also be visible to the naked eye. It is considered a piece of history and special due to its brightness.
