Big Cities Scramble to be Prepared for an Oil Train Disaster

While railroads have long carried hazardous materials through congested urban areas, cities are now scrambling to formulate emergency plans and to train firefighters amid the latest safety threat: a fiftyfold increase in crude shipments that critics say has put millions of people living or working near the tracks at heightened risk of derailment, fire and explosion.

Former Football Coach Faces Lawsuit Over Culture of Sexual Violence
spacer image
A former student has filed a lawsuit against the former football coach for Oregon State University alleging that he fostered a culture of sexual violence, contributing to her sexual assault. The woman alleges that she was drugged and raped at a party at the apartment of one of the school's football players during her freshman year. According to the lawsuit, the plaintiff was raped by a non-student, but the culture of sexual violence that was created in the school's football program led to the assault. The lawsuit accuses the school of indifference and accuses the former coach of failing to end the culture of sexual violence among his players. The plaintiff is seeking $7.5 million in damages.
