No decision on Gadhafi's fate

Diplomats discussing the fate of former Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi have yet to reach a decision.

The aim is to spare Libya further bloodshed by rigging an exit for the deposed leader.

A convoy of vehicles crossed into Niger from Libya late on Monday. They were said to be carrying gold, cash and senior members of the Gadhafi inner circle. But Western officials do not believe Gadhafi or his family were present on the convoy.

Japan Typhoon Kills Many

The death toll from Talas, a typhoon that hit Japan continues to rise. As of Tuesday the powerful typhoon had killed at least 37 people with many more missing.

Emergency response teams have been kept busy airlifting supplies to towns cut off by Talas. In many areas flooding, landslides and damage to roads prevented help from arriving quickly.

Before Talas hit Japan almost half a million people were told to evacuate. Currently 3000 remain in evacuation centres.


McGill still on top

McGill University has yet another international honour under its belt. It marched up two spots to number 17 in this year’s World University Rankings. McGill is the number one ranked university in Canada on the list.

The ranking system is based on academic reputation, student-teacher ratio, and the number of international students and faculty at an institution.

Another Montreal school, the University de Montreal can be proud of their ranking of 137. That tops Ontario’s historic Queen’s University by 7.
