It's official:  By a margin of two-to-one, Irish voters decided to pave the way to legalizing Women's Reproductive Rights and scrap the Eighth Amendment of the constitution.  It's a landslide:  The tally was 66.4 percent voting "Yes" to change the constitution, and 33.6 percent voting against, which is just about in line with the two exit polls from The Irish Times newspaper and national broadcaster RTE.  The Taoiseach (prime minister) Leo Varadkar said it was "a historic day for Ireland" and that a "quiet revolution" had taken place, and he's right:  After decades of extreme Roman Catholic Church influence over what was Western Europe's most socially-conservative country, Ireland in recent years has legalized Divorce, Gay Marriage, and now Abortions.  Oh, and it made the Gay son of an Indian immigrant its Taoiseach, who told the jubilant crowd at Dublin Castle the result showed the Irish public "trust and respect women to make their own decision and choices".

The leaders of North and South Korea met in a surprise summit at the Panmunjom treaty village on the border, the same place where they held hands and walked back and forth over the line in a history-making meeting a few weeks ago.  This time around, they're talking about how to salvage the peace process after the orange clown Donald Trump wrote that embarrassingly juvenile break-up letter canceling the 12 June US-North Korean summit in Singapore.  Now, that might be back on:  South Korean President Moon Jae-in's office said both men spoke of their desire for the North's Kim Jong-un to meet with Trump, and a US advance team is reportedly en route to Singapore to set it all in motion, as if the clown never wrote the letter.

Venezuela released a US citizen it had held on charges of stockpiling weapons.  Authorities had accused Mormon missionary Joshua Holt last year and tossed him in Jail, where he recorded a video asking for US authorities to help get him out.  US Senator Bob Corker flew to Caracas on Friday to meet with president Nicolas Maduro; a day later, Holt and his Venezuelan partner flew to the US.  A spokesman for President Maduro said it was a "gesture" aimed at improving dialogue between Caracas and Washington. 

Health workers will begin administering Ebola vaccines in rural parts of the DR Congo from Monday, with vaccination efforts well underway in the city of Mbandaka.  They've confirmed 35 infections and ten deaths from the virus, which is highly contagious and spread via the bodily fluids of patients - even the dead ones.  With the virus potentially on the loose in a city of 1.2 million people, the UN World Health Organization emergencies chief says the next few weeks are crucial in determining whether the outbreak can be brought under control.

The Ugandan Red Cross says at least 48 people have been killed in a grisly accident involving a tractor, a bus, and a truck.  The dead include at least 16 children.  Survivors had to be airlifted from the north to a government hospital in Kampala. 

A cyclone has battered Oman on the Arabian Peninsula, killing at least ten people.

NAB says it will compensate customers for any losses they incurred during Saturday's service outage.  Internet and mobile banking, ATMs, and eftpos were among the services interrupted by the snafu which lasted seven hours on a crucial banking day.  Customers had no idea it was happening until they tried to pay for something, and that apparently includes Aussies trying to use their cards to pay for dinner and hotel while abroad.

Tens of thousands of protesters marched in Paris and more came out in other cities, against President Emmanuel Macron's public sector "reforms" which are just the same old, same old failed austerity programs.  They're especially incensed because Macron's government is demanding workers give up salary and pensions while giving a 4.5 Billion Euro tax break to the wealthy - public money that could have been invested in hospitals.  "The country is rich.  The country must share," said Leftist leader Jean-Luc Melenchon of the France Unbowed party.
