Hello Australia! - Malcolml is very publicly reversing one of Tony's initiatives - A very familiar face from movies and TV is gone - A homecoming for one of the last of his kind - And more in your CareerSpot World News Briefs:

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is dumping "knights" and "dames" from Australia's honors system.  "Knights and dames are titles that are really anachronistic, they're out of date, not appropriate in 2015 in Australia," said Mr. Turnbull.  Former PM Tony Abbott brought the titles back last year, and was widely ridiculed when he bestowed one on Prince Philip instead of an Australian.  Unlike Tony, Malcolm is a former leader of the Australian Republican Movement that wants a constitutional change to replace the British monarch as Australian head of state with an Australian president.

Prolific actor, former US Senator, and one-time US presidential candidate Fred Dalton Thompson is dead at age 73 of lymphoma.  Thompson and his deep baritone southern drawl were often playing a law enforcement or government official in movies like "The Hunt for Red October", "Cape Fear", "In The Line Of Fire", and on the long running TV series "Law and Order".  As an attorney in the 1970s, he assisted congressional Republicans during the Watergate Hearings, reportedly supplying the question, "What did the President know, and when did he know it?" which focused the hearings and led to the downfall of Richard M. Nixon.  In his later years, Thompson appeared in a series of commercials on US TV selling so-called "reverse mortgages", which critics say victimize the elderly and poor.

China has detained one it the country's biggest private money managers.  Xu Xiang is suspected of illegally obtaining insider information about the stock market, and of manipulating prices.  There's also a parallel investigation into his Zexi Investment hedge fund based in the financial center of Shanghai, which managed to prosper despite the recent downturn in the Shanghai stock market.

Russia has flown 162 bodies back to Saint Petersburg, after reclaiming them from the wreckage of MetroJet Flight 7K9268 in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.  224 peopel died when the jet crashed after taking off from the Red Sea resort of Sharm El-Sheikh.  There were some reports that the Airbus A321 had been repaired after being in in an accident in 2001, when its tail struck the ground during a landing at Cairo International Airport.  It is unclear whether that accident has any bearing on Saturday's disaster.

America's Cincinnati Zoo has flown its critically endangered male Sumatran rhino 16,000 kilometers to Indonesia.  It is hoped that eight-year old Harapan - whose name means "hope" in Indonesian - will mate with females of his species at his new home in the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary at the Way Kambas National Park.  Harapan was born in captivity in America, and this is the first time he's ever been in his ancestral land.  But his natural habitat in the forest of Sumatra is being devastated illegal logging and forest fires by farmers clearing land for palm oil and pulp plantations, and poachers kill Sumatran Rhinos for their horns.  As a result, there are only about 100 Sumatran Rhinos left in the world.
