Dangerous 'fire whirls' add fury to vast wildfire spreading into Nevada from Mojave National Preserve
Crews battled “fire whirls” in California’s Mojave National Preserve this weekend as a massive wildfire crossed into Nevada amid dangerously high temperatures and raging winds.
The York Fire was mapped at roughly 120 square miles on Monday with no containment. The blaze erupted Friday near the remote Caruthers Canyon area of the vast wildland preserve, crossed the state line into Nevada on Sunday and sent smoke further east into the Las Vegas Valley.
Wind-driven flames 20 feet high in some spots charred tens of thousands of acres of desert scrub, juniper and Joshua tree woodland, according to an incident update.
A fire whirl — sometimes called a fire tornado — is a “spinning column of fire” that forms when intense heat and turbulent winds combine, according to the National Park Service.
The vortexes — which can be anywhere from a few feet tall to several hundred feet high, with varying rotational speeds — were spotted Sunday on the north end of the York Fire.

“While these can be fascinating to observe they are a very dangerous natural phenomena that can occur during wildfires,” the park service wrote.
The blaze was about 20% contained on Monday. Crews expected to face limited visibility due to the fire’s thick smoke. The cause of the York Fire remains under investigation.
To the southwest, the Bonny Fire burned about 3.6 square miles in the rugged hills of Riverside County.
More than 1,300 people were ordered to evacuate their homes Saturday near the community of Aguanga that is home to horse ranches and wineries.
One firefighter was injured in the blaze.
Gusty winds and the chance of thunderstorms into Tuesday will heighten the risk of renewed growth, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said in a statement.
Texas plane crashes into two-story Georgetown home, injuring 3
A small plane crashed into a Texas home on Sunday afternoon, authorities said.
The two-story home in Georgetown was vacant at the time of the crash, which happened shortly before noon. All three people aboard the small plane were taken to a local hospital.
“We are currently working a plane crash on the 500-block of North Wood Drive,” the Georgetown Fire Department announced on Facebook.
“The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will begin their investigation this afternoon,” the post added. “Crews will remain on scene to assist.”

Michigan couple welcomes 1st baby girl born into the family after 138 years of boys: 'Utter shock'
A Michigan couple is seeing pink as they welcomed a baby girl named Audrey in March, ending a 138-year streak of only boys being born into the family.
When Carolyn and Andrew Clark of Caledonia, Michigan, held their “gender reveal” party, they weren’t expecting any big surprises.
Andrew Clark had informed his wife before they married 10 years ago that they would not be having a girl — due to a long line of male-dominated births in his family.

“I didn’t believe him because it’s a 50/50 chance of having a boy or a girl,” Carolyn Clark, 36, told Fox News Digital.
“So when he told me that, I just thought he was kidding,” she added.
Carolyn Clark said that the next time she saw her husband’s parents, she decided to get to the bottom of the family’s abundance of male births.

“They told me, ‘Oh yeah, this is a real thing,” Carolyn Clark said.
“My father-in-law pulled out some family tree to show me.”
Carolyn Clark said there was one name on the family tree — the person who was apparently the last girl to be born in the family.
The family member’s birth year was 1885.
“I said, ‘This does not seem right. I’ve never heard of this happening before,” Carolyn Clark recalled.
But there was more proof.
“My grandpa was really big into our genealogy,” Andrew Clark, 34, told Fox News Digital.
“So, he traced it back and found all the birth certificates and marriage certificates and death certificates.”
And when the couple had their son Cameron, 4, it seemed that history was repeating itself, Carolyn Clark said.
“I thought, ‘It must be true. His brothers only have boys as well, so I guess this is actually real.'”
Having all boys isn’t necessarily a point of pride in the Clark family, Andrew Clark said.

“It was just a crazy fact that kept occurring in our lives,” he said.
Still, every time someone in the family was having a baby, there was always a glimmer of hope that the child would be a girl.
“Even when we were biting into the cookie for our gender reveal, we were just expecting it to be blue,” Carolyn Clark said.
The Clarks invited their family over to bite into cookies to reveal whether they’d be welcoming a boy or a girl.
Carolyn Clark said she, her husband and their loved ones were in “utter shock” when they learned the streak would be broken (SEE THE VIDEO at the top of this article).
NEW JERSEY GRANDMOTHER GOES VIRAL FOR RANKING HER 10 GRANDKIDS: ‘JUST BE CAREFUL’
“My sister-in-law and I were always saying, ‘There has to be a girl at some point, whether it’s us or maybe our boys will have a daughter at some point.’ So when we bit into [the cookie], I looked at her like, ‘Is this pink?’ And she freaked out.”
Carolyn Clark said she wondered if Audrey’s birth might pave the way for future Clark girls.
“We were happy either way,” she said.
“We just wanted a healthy baby and it was just the icing on that cake that it was a girl. Andrew’s brother and his wife are wanting more kids,” she said — and added that she hoped it “gives my sister-in-law hope that it can be done.”
Before little Audrey was born, the Clarks had suffered a miscarriage, which is why the couple has called their brand-new daughter a “rainbow baby.”
A rainbow baby is a baby born after a loss due to miscarriage, infant death, stillbirth or neonatal death, according to the American Pregnancy Association.

“Rainbow babies are considered ‘miracle’ babies due to the powerful impact they can have on helping parents heal after a loss,” the organization wrote on its website.
Carolyn Clark had been scheduled to be induced on March 16, but Audrey had other plans and arrived on the morning of the 17th — St. Patrick’s Day.
“We just thought that was super special that she is our rainbow baby, and she came on the day of celebrating luck,” mom Carolyn Clark said.
“So, she’s kind of our lucky charm.”
Europe's electric car mandate is getting torn up, and Ferrari is into it
It looks like Ferraris will be screaming through the Italian countryside for decades to come.
The European Commission has agreed to demands from Italy and Germany to allow combustion engines to continue to be made as long as they run on carbon-neutral e-fuel.
Europe was set to ban the sale of new combustion engine vehicles in 2035, but will now rewrite the regulations to carve out an exemption.
E-fuels are made from carbon that has been sequestered from the atmosphere and combined with water to create combustible fuels that work like gasoline or diesel and emit only as much carbon when burned as was used to make them.
JET-POWERED FERRARI COULD TAKE ON TESLA’S ‘FLYING’ ROADSTER
When produced using zero emissions power, like wind or solar, the fuels contribute no additional greenhouse gases.
Porsche is among the companies that have invested in the technology and has demonstrated one of its gasoline-powered 911 sports cars running on fuel produced at a wind-powered plant in Chile.
The current production cost at the pilot plant is $45 per gallon, but Porsche expects that to be down to $8 by 2026, which would put it close to par with gasoline in Europe.
Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna told a Reuters Newsmaker event on Monday that the company still plans to electrify 80% of its lineup by 2030, but that the rule change opens up new opportunities.

“The good news for us as a company … is that on top of electric cars, we’ll also be able to go on with our internal combustion engines ones,” Vigna said. “We don’t want to tell clients which car to use. We want to make three kinds of propulsion available for them — hybrid, electric and ICE — and they will chose.”
Rival Italian exotic sports carmaker Lamborghini, which is a sister company to Porsche as part of the VW Group, is about to begin transitioning all of its models to hybrid powertrains, but has no current plans to offer an electric car.
CEO Stephan Winkelmann has said the brand’s customers enjoy the sound and performance of a combustion engine that synthetic fuels could be one way to keep them alive.
A hybrid replacement for the Aventador that uses a V12 engine is set to be revealed on March 29, and it’s already sold out.
“We already have 18-19 months waiting period for a new car,” Winkelmann told FOX Business.
“We are selling more cars than we are able to produce.”
Italy is also lobbying for biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel to be exempted, but the commission has not yet indicated if they will be included in the updated regulations.
Report into Dutch protections of 3 murder victims finds security services didn't always act on threat tips
A critical report into the protection of three murder victims, including a celebrated Dutch journalist gunned down in central Amsterdam, said Wednesday that security services in a “fragmented” protection system didn’t always act on tips about possible threats.
The conclusions highlighted flaws in a network involving police and prosecutors that is intended to offer protection to people facing threats ranging from stalkers to possible attacks by criminals and terrorists.
The report came following an 18-month government-commissioned investigation by the Dutch Safety Board into the slayings of crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, lawyer Derk Wiersum and the brother of a key witness in the trial of an alleged Dutch crime gang.
De Vries, who was shot on an Amsterdam street on July 21, 2021, and died nine days later acted as a confidential advisor to the witness. Wiersum, the witness’ lawyer, was gunned down on Sept. 18, 2019, outside his home in Amsterdam. The witness’ brother, identified only Reduan, was shot and killed March 29, 2018.
NETHERLANDS REPORTEDLY SET TO FORCIBLY CLOSE 3,000 FARMS TO COMPLY WITH EU MANDATE
The witness played a key role in the prosecution of Ridouan Taghi, who is accused by prosecutors of multiple murders in the violent Dutch criminal underworld. Judges are expected to deliver verdicts later this year in the trial of Taghi and several alleged accomplices.
The report said that “command of the surveillance and protection of the persons under threat was fragmented across national and regional organisations” and the protection service “did not receive all the information about the threat that was available to the investigation.”
It added that “signals” of possible threats from the victims “were not regarded as concrete threat information and therefore did not fit into the usual system.”
DUTCH FARMERS FORM ‘FREEDOM CONVOYS’ TO PROTEST GOVERNMENT’S STRICT ENVIRONMENTAL RULES
Both Wiersum and De Vries had police surveillance at their homes. De Vries “was not willing to share his schedule to make it possible to organize surveillance for his arrivals and departures. He also made no use of the option to personally notify any high-risk moments,” the report said.
The brother of the witness “insisted on protection for members of his family. When the attack on his life took place, no specific security measures had yet been taken for him,” it added.
Justice Minister Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius said in a reaction to the report that the government has made investments to beef up the security apparatus in recent years.
“The increased threat, specifically from organized crime, means that the number of people and objects that are intensively monitored and secured for a long period of time — sometimes even many years — has increased considerably,” she said in a statement.
Yeşilgöz-Zegerius said that “the person to be protected is now more central, and tailor-made security measures are being developed.”

Bail set to $1 million for WA man who allegedly carried guns into a courthouse
A man suspected of carrying guns into a courthouse in Washington state earlier in the week, prompting a standoff and a three-hour lockdown before his arrest, had bail set Tuesday at $1 million.
Snohomish County District Court Presiding Judge Jennifer Rancourt set bail during a first court appearance for 32-year-old David Hsu, The Daily Herald reported.
Hsu’s attorney, Lorcan Malone, had requested little to no bail, noting Hsu has no criminal history and wasn’t accused of any violent offenses. Hsu, of Woodinville, remained jailed Tuesday afternoon.
WA MAN ARRESTED AFTER WALKING INTO COURTHOUSE WITH SEVERAL RIFLES, BULLETPROOF VEST
Rancourt said she found probable cause to hold Hsu on investigation of resisting arrest, carrying a concealed weapon, disorderly conduct, and unlawful display of a weapon.
Wearing a protective vest, Hsu had entered the Snohomish County Courthouse lobby in Everett at about 12:30 p.m. Monday with guns and ammunition, the county sheriff’s office said. Hsu demanded to see two judges and the sheriff to change arrangements for custody of his child, detectives said in court documents.
Hsu was immediately confronted by law enforcement officers who ordered him to drop his weapons, authorities said, adding he placed two rifles on the ground, but refused to relinquish additional firearms and weapons and leave the building.
After hours of negotiations with law enforcement, Hsu was arrested. No one was hurt.
Sheriff’s office detectives said they recovered two rifles, four handguns, more than 300 rounds of ammunition, a ballistic armor vest, six knives, a hatchet and brass knuckles from the lobby of the courthouse.
