Khan falls, fractures skull ahead of general election
Lahore, Pakistan – One of Pakistan’s most prominent politicians, former cricket star Imran Khan, fell at a political rally Tuesday, leaving him with two hairline skull fractures and knocking him off the campaign trail ahead of Saturday’s general election.
Khan has emerged as a wild-card candidate and it is unclear how much his widespread personal popularity will translate into votes at the polls. His Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, however, is considered one of the top three parties in the country.
Morsi adds to Cabinet amid long economic funk
Cairo – President Mohammed Morsi named nine new ministers to his government Tuesday, including three members of the Muslim Brotherhood, in a move that his prime minister, Hesham Kandil, said was intended to re-energize efforts to reverse Egypt’s prolonged economic spiral.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the secretive Islamist society through which Morsi rose to prominence, now will control 10 of the government’s 35 Cabinet seats, a development that fed opposition complaints that the president is more intent on strengthening the hand of the Brotherhood than providing good governance.
Inslee signs law on accountability
OLYMPIA – Gov. Jay Inslee has signed a measure that enhances the state’s K-12 school accountability system.
The bill signed Tuesday gives state school officials more say about transforming the lowest-achieving schools. Under the measure, if schools fail to improve, the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction would come in to try to turn around the school. The school could ultimately be shuttered if it doesn’t improve.
The state teachers union opposed the bill because of a provision that may allow districts to reopen contract negotiations to help with school transformation.
The new law builds on an existing school accountability system that the Legislature, OSPI and the state Board of Education have been working on for years
United Airlines targets May 20 for 787 flights
CHICAGO – United Airlines expects to start flying its Boeing 787s again May 20.
The 787s had been grounded because of concerns about smoldering batteries, but they have been returning to the skies. Ethiopian Airlines was first to fly a 787 again, April 27.
The first United flight will be from Houston to Chicago. A spokeswoman for United Continental Holdings Inc. said the first flights will be around the U.S. She says international flights will begin June 10.
Boeing is putting a new battery system on 50 of the 787s that have been delivered around the world. Ethiopian Airlines’ CEO said his company will seek compensation from Boeing for the grounding of its 787s.

In brief: From Wire Reports:

Khan has emerged as a wild-card candidate and it is unclear how much his widespread personal popularity will translate into votes at the polls. His Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, however, is considered one of the top three parties in the country.
