Loose Barges Hit Dam on Ohio River - Sinking with Tons of Methanol on Board
That sinking and toxic feeling... it's not just trains, it's boats as well in the US. Several barges are sinking in Kentucky, one of them carrying 1,400 tons of toxic methanol.
Footage shows them at a dam in Louisville, where the authorities have closed the floodgates to avoid a chemical leak. They say there's no need for alarm.
Methanol dissolves quickly in water, but could kill wildlife at the spill site. It's not as dangerous as vinyl chloride, which was released into the soil and rivers in Ohio after a chemical train crash.

Adidas Puts Boot in on Black Lives Matter Using Three Stripes
Does the sports firm own anything that attempts to use stripes? The real question is which one would make a better pair of predators? (Boots of course).

Credit Suisse ‘Complicit’ in Tax Evasion for Ultra-Rich Americans - 🇺🇸Senate
The Swiss bank has been accused of operating an ongoing scheme to help wealthy Americans to dodge taxes, the US Senate Finance Committee has asserted.
Credit Suisse had pleaded guilty in 2014 to criminal charges for aiding US citizens hide wealth in offshore accounts to avoid tax and as part of its plea it promised to crack down on tax fraud.
The total amount concealed in violation of the 2014 plea agreement is reportedly more than $700mn.
