Some 120 gas canisters found for ‘one or more’ attacks in Barcelona: police

Police said Sunday they have found more than 120 gas canisters in a house in Alcanar, where suspects of this week’s twin assaults in Spain were believed to be building bombs for ‘one or more’ attacks in Barcelona.

“We’re starting to see clearly that (the Alcanar house) was the place where they were preparing explosives for one or more attacks in the city of Barcelona,” police chief of Catalonia region Josep Lluis Trapero told journalists.

On the eve of the attack in Barcelona, an explosion had occurred at the house about 200 kilometres south of the city, and police believe it was detonated in error by the suspected jihadists.

Grief-stricken Barcelona paid homage Sunday to victims of two terror assaults at a mass in the city’s Sagrada Familia church, as investigators turned their focus to a missing Moroccan imam believed to have radicalised the young attackers.

King Felipe, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy and Catalonia’s president Carles Puigdemont led the ceremony mourning the 14 people killed by jihadists who used vehicles to mow down pedestrians in Barcelona’s Las Ramblas boulevard on Thursday and in the nearby seaside resort of Cambrils early Friday.

“These have been days of tears, many tears,” said auxiliary bishop Sebastia Taltavull.

Outside the church, snipers were posted on rooftops surrounding the landmark building by Gaudi, while heavily armed police stood guard as hundreds of people gathered under grey skies.

Church of England colluded with bishop who abused boys, says archbishop of Canterbury

Report about bishop Peter Ball, finding collusion over 20 years, is ‘harrowing reading’, says archbishop of Canterbury

Senior figures in the Church of England colluded for a period of 20 years with a disgraced former bishop who sexually abused boys and men, a damning independent report has found.

The archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said the report on the church’s handling of former bishop Peter Ball made “harrowing reading”.

“The church colluded and concealed rather than seeking to help those who were brave enough to come forward. This is inexcusable and shocking behaviour,” he said.

“To the survivors who were brave enough to share their story and bring Peter Ball to justice, I once again offer an unreserved apology. There are no excuses whatsoever for what took place and the systemic abuse of trust perpetrated by Peter Ball over decades.”

Silicon Valley: the best and only comedy you should be watching

While people gab endlessly about lesser shows, this sitcom about a tech startup has been quietly scaling ever more majestic heights

I’m going to tell you two things that are unequivocally true. First, Silicon Valley is the best comedy on television at the moment. Second, not nearly enough people are talking about it.

I’ve spent the last couple of months watching the internet froth itself dry over a succession of lesser comedies – your Kimmy Schmidts, your Car Shares, your Masters of None – while Silicon Valley has quietly scaled ever more peerlessly majestic heights. And now I’m here to say stop. Enough is enough. Silicon Valley is astonishing. The fact that you’re not watching it is ridiculous.

If you’re new to it, Silicon Valley is a sitcom about a tech startup called Pied Piper. Its CEO is Richard Hendricks, a prodigiously gifted coder whose desire to always play fair puts him directly in the sights of all the sharks and wolves…

Chaos at Sydney Cup after six-year-old racehorse Almoonqith was tragically euthanised

The Sydney Cup 2017 was sensationally declared a no-race after two jockeys were dislodged and James Doyle’s horse Almoonqith was put down following a horror fall at Royal Randwick Racecourse.

Six-year-old mare Almoonqith was involved in a collision mid-race and lay motionless on the ground in front of a horrified crowd after two riders were dislodged.

Jockey Blake Shinn and Almoonqith’s rider James Doyle were still on the ground at Royal Randwick Racecourse when the stewards made the controversial decision to call it a no-race.

But at least half the other jockeys were still romping the field at Randwick, unaware that the $2million race had been called off, reports Racing.com.

Doyle – who suffered a knee injury – struggled to crawl off the track with the help of fellow jockey Shinn.

With two riders still on the track and Almoonqith situated near the winning post, officials decided to call the race off for safety reasons.

The official starter was made to scream at the remaining jockeys to alert their attention to the shocking incident.
