Bill Mauger, a passenger on board Melbourne-bound flight VA346 who was seated near the wing, attempted to alert a cabin crew member when he noticed the issue. “As we were starting to get some altitude I looked over to the wing and it looked like there was something caught in it.

People were posting on social media Monday night asking for help after Interstate 95 came to a standstill from the snow and stranded motorists. Northam, who said he understands drivers’ “frustration and fear,” said the heavy snow and ice made it too difficult to get workers and equipment to where they needed to be in order to help. “We all need to be clear that this was an incredibly unusual event,” he said during a news conference....

The X50 and the X50 Pro are the first phones in Vivo’s upper-mid-range X series to get an international launch – though the top-end X50 Pro+ is staying in China for the time being. In fact, since initially writing this review the X50 Pro has arrived officially in the UK, though under a new name: the Vivo X51. The X50 is a pretty standard mid-range device, but the X50 Pro is a little more special, boasting the world’s first built-in gimbal stabilisation for a phone camera – a potential game changer for both video and night-time photography....

Super Mario 64 is one-third of the somewhat controversial Super Mario 3D All-Stars, which also contains 2002’s Super Mario Sunshine as well as 2007’s Super Mario Galaxy.

Since the 2010-11 tour of South Africa, India have lost a mind-numbing 16 overseas Tests, the most by any international side. During a successful period from 2002 to 2010, India were notoriously lazy starters. The first Test was often the hardest hurdle to overcome....
