7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2016 WORLD IN BRIEF and because planes could be heard lying overhead. The New York-based watchdog said at least 13 people were reported killed. The U.S.-led coalition and the Iraqi military, which are wag- ing the offensive to drive IS from Mosul, are the only parties known to be lying military aircraft over Iraq. Col. John Dorrian, a U.S. military spokesman, said the coa- lition had “deinitively determined” that it did not conduct the airstrike that killed civilians in Daquq, and had shared its ind- ings with the Iraqi government, which is carrying out its own investigation. Associated Press Hundreds expected for hearing on Longview coal-export terminal LONGVIEW, Wash. — Hundreds of supporters and oppo- nents are expected at a federal hearing Monday about a pro- posed coal-export terminal along the Columbia River in south- west Washington. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is taking comments on its draft environmental review of the project at a public hear- ing in Longview. Millennium Bulk Terminals-Longview is proposing a proj- ect in Longview to handle up to 44 million metric tons of coal a year. Coal would arrive by train from Montana, Wyoming and other states to be stored and loaded on ships for export to Asia. Company CEO Bill Chapman and other proponents are scheduled to speak at an afternoon rally. Opponents worried about potential train accidents, increased vessel trafic and other issues say they’ll turn out in large numbers as well. The state is also doing its own separate environmental review of the project. NTSB to investigate bus crash that left 13 dead, 31 injured PALM SPRINGS, Calif. — A maintenance crew had slowed down trafic on a California highway through the night Sunday, and the work had gone on for hours without prob- lems. Then a tour bus returning to Los Angeles from a casino trip slammed into the back of a semi-truck. Passengers who were asleep on the bus woke up to loud screams and the sound of crushing metal. The gambling jaunt ended in one of the deadliest wrecks in California history with 13 people killed and 31 others injured. Authorities said the bus was going much faster than the truck, causing it to plow about 15 feet into the truck on Inter- state 10 just north of the desert resort town of Palm Springs. “You can see it was a substantial impact,” California High- way Patrol Border Division Chief Jim Abele said. It was not known if alcohol, drugs or fatigue played a role in the crash, but the bus was inspected in April and had no mechanical issues, Abele said. The bus driver was killed, and the truck driver received minor injuries. The bus was coming from Red Earth Casino in the desert town of Thermal and was about 35 miles into its 135-mile trip back to Los Angeles. CHP oficers had been slowing trafic to allow utility work- ers to string wires across the freeway, Abele said. Passengers told oficials that most people were asleep when the crash occurred shortly after 5 a.m. Abele said it appeared the 1996 bus didn’t have seat belts and likely didn’t have data recorder that would reveal how fast the bus was traveling and whether the driver braked before impact. KMIR-TV via AP The scene of crash between a tour bus and a semi-truck crashed on Interstate 10 near Desert Hot Springs, near Palm Springs, in California’s Mojave Desert Sunday. Multi- ple deaths and injuries were reported. Dreams do come true: Ruby slippers project passes goal WASHINGTON — Smithsonian oficials are “over the rain- bow” after reaching their fundraising goal to help preserve the ruby slippers from “The Wizard Oz.” The Smithsonian launched a Kickstarter campaign last week to raise $300,000 to help preserve the slippers that whisked Dorothy back to Kansas at the end of the movie. Oficials say they reached their goal late Sunday night thanks to more than 5,300 supporters in 41 countries across six conti- nents. They say they’ll announce a stretch goal today involv- ing a character who traveled down the yellow brick road with Dorothy. The slippers have been one of the most beloved items at the National Museum of American History. The Smithsonian wants to put the money toward a technologically advanced display case that will preserve them for future generations. Iraq forces shell IS near Mosul; group urges airstrike probe BARTELLA, Iraq — Iraqi forces shelled Islamic State posi- tions outside Mosul today as ighting to retake the extrem- ist-held city entered its second week and a rights group urged a probe into a suspected airstrike that hit a mosque, killing over a dozen civilians. The purported airstrike in northern Iraq struck the women’s section of a Shiite mosque on Friday in the town of Daquq amid a large Islamic State assault on the nearby city of Kirkuk. That assault was meant to distract the Iraqi forces and their allies from the massive operation around Mosul, the country’s sec- ond largest city. Human Rights Watch said Daquq’s residents believe the attack was an airstrike because of the extent of the destruction Candidates clash in battleground states as Trump’s path narrows The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Elec- tion Day just 15 days off, Don- ald Trump is ighting to pre- serve his narrow path to the presidency in must-win Flor- ida today as Hillary Clinton tries to slam the door on her Republican opponent in battle- ground New Hampshire. At the same time, Dem- ocrats continue to get help from President Barack Obama, whose high job approval num- bers have made him a politi- cal force in the sprint to Nov. 8. The president lashed out at Trump and praised Clinton as he campaigned Sunday in Nevada, a competitive state in the race for the White House and the Senate. Obama told Nevadans they have a winning hand in Clin- ton and Senate candidate Cath- erine Cortez Masto, who is locked in a tight race to ill the seat being vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Harry Reid. Democrats need to retain the Nevada Senate contest and pick up four new seats else- where to claim the Senate majority if Clinton wins. Many Republicans fear that Trump’s struggles could drag down his party’s chances in competitive House and Senate elections across the nation. The president was unspar- ing Sunday in his criticism of Trump, describing the billion- aire businessman as unit to be president. Obama also railed against Republicans and con- servative media outlets for promoting “all kinds of crazy stuff” about him and his par- ty’s leaders. He cited as an example the years-long ques- tions from Trump and others about whether he was born in the U.S. “Is it any wonder that they ended up nominating some- body like Donald Trump?” Obama said. Trump, meanwhile, lashed out at his Democratic oppo- nent on Twitter today, claiming that “Crooked Hillary” wants the United States to accept “as many Syrians as possible” from the war-torn region. Clin- ton has said Obama’s plan to admit 10,000 Syrian refugees this iscal year is a good start, but that the nation “needs to do more.” Trump was campaigning today in Florida, a state his advisers concede he must win to have any chance at becom- ing president. With email dumps, WikiLeaks tests power of full transparency LONDON — WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange irst out- lined the hypothesis nearly a decade ago: Can total transparency defeat an entrenched group of insiders? “Consider what would happen,” Assange wrote in 2006, if one of America’s two major parties had their emails, faxes, campaign brieings, internal polls and donor data all exposed to public scrutiny. “They would immediately fall into an organizational stu- por,” he predicted, “and lose to the other.” A decade later, various organs of the Democratic Party have been hacked; several staffers have resigned and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has seen the inner work- ings of her campaign exposed to the public, including disclo- sures calling into question her positions on trade and Wall Street and her relationship with the party’s left . Many of these emails have been released into the public domain by WikiLeaks. Some see the leaks as a sign that Assange has thrown his lot in with Republican rival Donald Trump or even with Russia. But others who’ve followed Assange over the years say he’s less interested in who wins high ofice than in exposing — and wearing down — the gears of political power that grind away behind the scenes. Clinton aides suggested email jokes, say hacked messages WASHINGTON — Hacked emails from the personal account of Hillary Clinton’s top campaign oficial show her aides con- sidered inserting jokes about her private email server into her speeches at several events — and at least one joke made it into her remarks. “I love it,” she told a dinner in Iowa on August 14, 2015, noting she had opened an online account with Snapchat, which deletes posts automatically. “Those messages disappear all by themselves.” The crack scored a laugh from the audience, but the issue was plenty serious. About a month earlier, news broke of an FBI investigation into whether some of the emails that passed through Clinton’s unsecured server contained classiied information. Ulti- mately, the agency criticized Clinton for being reckless with clas- siied information but declined to prosecute her.
