The deafening scenes outside the Pennsylvania Convention Centre yesterday morning would have been almost entertaining were they not so serious. The furious chanting and angry placard waving simply encapsulated the hate and division creeping across the United States as the presidential election, amazingly, still lies in the balance. And this spot, where the vote counting continues, is the very epicentre of where America’s fate over the next few days may lie.  With Pennsylvania’s result in this increasingly sour contest still to be announced, the eyes of the whole country, nay the world, were now firmly fixed upon this usually quiet, non-descript Philadelphia street. Supporters of President Donald Trump demonstrate outside the Pennsylvania Convention Center where votes are being counted Here Democrat supporters sang anti-Trump chants, whipped into a noisy frenzy by fierce drum beats and an enthusiastic MC whose talent for lyrical wit deserved a wider audience. Over by the entrance to t

The Pac-12 football season has yet to begin, but the conference already has its first coronavirus cancellation as California called off Saturday's opener against Washington after one Golden Bears player tested positive. An unspecified number of Cal players are currently being quarantined after contact tracing, which left the Golden Bears without the minimum number of scholarship athletes available for Saturday's game. 'The Pac-12 has approved a request from Cal to cancel the Washington at Cal football game scheduled for November 7,' the Pac-12 said in a statement. 'This decision was made under the Pac-12's football game cancellation policy due to Cal not having the minimum number of scholarship players available for the game as a result of a positive football student-athlete COVID-10 case and resulting isolation of additional football student-athletes under contact tracing protocols.' The infected player's positive antigen test was confirmed through a PC

The family of missing RAF airman Corrie McKeague who vanished four years ago has won its battle to have an inquest held into his death.  Mr McKeague, 23, disappeared after touring pubs in Bury St Edmund's, Suffolk, in the early hours of September 24, 2016. Despite a multi-million pound search operation which included two landfill sites the serviceman's body has never been found.    It is feared that he may have sheltered in a rubbish bin which was later collected by a bin lorry and emptied in a dump. The serviceman's mother Nicola Urquhart has long campaigned for a formal inquest into the circumstances of his presumed death to be held.

Dominic Raab has revealed he is self-isolating after coming into contact with someone who tested positive for coronavirus. The Foreign Secretary said he would abide by NHS track and trace rules and stay out of public for two weeks. Mr Raab said he will work remotely for the 14 days amid diplomatic challenges with the US over the election chaos. The 46-year-old was twice tested for the virus during the first wave, but both came back negative.

A Florida high school dean has been fired after he tested positive for marijuana, even though it had been prescribed to him by a doctor to treat post-traumatic stress disorder he incurred in the Marines. Belleview High School Dean Mike Hickman was fired by the Marion County School Board in a unanimous 5-0 vote Wednesday. The board said that while medical marijuana is legal in Florida, the drug is illegal under federal law, its use violates district policy and he failed to notify his supervisor he was using it. The central Florida district offered to suspend Hickman, 51, if he agreed not to use medical marijuana in the future, but the 10-year employee refused. After an administrative judge upheld a previous superintendent's recommendation that he be fired, the board acted. Mark Levitt, an attorney who represents current Superintendent Diane Gullett, told the board Gullett agrees with her predecessor's decision and Hickman's military service should not cloud their judgment.

A senior pastor at celebrity-loved mega-church Hillsong has been sensationally sacked over alleged 'breaches of trust' and 'moral failures' - six years after he baptized close friend Justin Bieber.   Carl Lentz, 41, who co-founded the New York City branch of the Australian church back in 2010, was fired by the organization's leader Brian Houston, Hillsong confirmed in a statement that was emailed out to congregation members and then issued publicly on Wednesday.    'This action has been taken following ongoing discussions in relation to leadership issues and breaches of trust, plus a recent revelation of moral failures,' Mr Houston revealed, however he claimed that it would 'not be appropriate' to share more details of Lentz's alleged offences.  Mr Houston added that this course of action was 'not taken lightly and was done in the best interests of everyone, including Pastor Carl'.  Carl Lentz, a pastor at celebrity-loved mega-church Hill

Four people have been hospitalized and five other injured after a pick-up truck crashed into a COVID-19 testing site at the University of Utah football stadium Thursday morning. Police say the driver entered the testing site in the west parking lot at Rice Eccles Stadium, in Salt Lake City, the wrong way shortly after 9:45am local time. The driver was then redirected to the correct entrance, but as he was turning his car around he suddenly accelerated forward and ploughed into the testing station. Four people, including the driver of the pickup and three University of Utah Health employees, were taken to local hospitals to be treated for undisclosed injuries. Five others were treated at the scene.
