Biker gets instant revenge on hit-and-run driver
Sometimes, you just have to do the right thing. Motorcyclist and YouTuber RPSTV was driving on Sunday when he witnessed a hit and run, in which a man driving a white Saturn rear ends a Honda stopped in the middle of the street. Immediately, the Honda pulls over, but the Saturn bails on the accident and leaves the scene. When the biker turns around to make sure everyone is okay, he notices that the Saturn took off, so he takes off on his bike to chase the guy down. Eventually, the biker catches up to the driver and is able to get his face and license plate on camera as he attempts to tell the driver to go back to the scene of the accident. The driver doesn't turn around so the biker decides it's not worth creating a dangerous situation and heads back to the accident to give the owner of the Honda the runaway driver's information. In the clip, the motorcyclist explains that he was afraid the hit-and-run driver could turn violent, which is why he turned around. Regardless, the motorcyclist definitely saved the driver of the Honda a headache with his insurance company.

On the trail of Indian labourers in Cuba
Havana, Cuba - Sparks fly and drills roar, but the restoration of the Manzana de Gomez, an ornate and imposing building to the east of Central Park in Old Havana, is well behind schedule. This luxury hotel, restored by the Cuban state in partnership with French construction group, Bouygues, was supposed to open in October, but chunks of the outer walls are missing. Peering through the dust, the scene looks no different from any number of other hotels being built in Havana. But take a closer look and some of the labourers are different. They work more hurriedly and speak different languages. Some wear turbans. That is because 150 of the men building the Manzana de Gomez are Indian. For the firstAl Jazeera q -

Herbal and dietary supplements tied to liver damage
By Lisa Rapaport (Reuters Health) - - One in five cases of chemical-induced liver damage come from herbal and dietary supplements, a research review concludes.

Why William Shatner Turned Down A Big Bang Theory Appearance
Because its characters are interested in all things nerd culture, The Big Bang Theory can boast a large number of guest stars from the worlds of science, science fiction and comic books. But, perhaps surprisingly, William Shatner hasn't ever popped in for a cameo, despite the show's affection for Star Trek. It turns out that's because Shatner himself has already turned down the opportunity. Here's why the actor refused a potential Big Bang cameo. I've had several conversations with the creators, and what they wanted me to do, didn't seem to be exactly right, so I said 'find something that's better'. They may have taken umbrage at that, I'm not sure. . . . They wanted me to play myself a littleCINEMABLEND q -
Family of grandmother killed in tragic accident sues local principal
HOUSTON – On the night of Sept. 11, 2016, 58-year old Bertha Lazcano Guerra was driving home on U.S. Highway 290 when a 5,000-pound truck fell from the sky and crushed the sport utility vehicle she was in. The mother of four children and grandmother of two, never saw it coming. "Mom was in an accident, and she didn't make it," says Crystal Lazcano, Bertha's daughter. Behind the steering wheel of the Ford F-150 was Orlando Reyna, who police say struck an impact barrier with such force that it lifted the truck airborne. Reyna, the 40-year old principal of Madison High School, along with a passenger, emerged from the wreckage with only minor injuries. He told police that he had been at Brick HouseFox News Latino q -
