After hurricane strength storms up the east coast millions have been left without power.
After the storms millions are facing a heat wave, without power. Energy suppliers think it could take up to a week for power to come back on.
The heat wave could also have a serious effect on corn and wheat yields in the midwest. The Midwest is suffering it’s worst draught since 1988. A reduced yield will further push up food prices around the world.
Draught conditions are also being experienced in Asia: around the Black Sea and China. Both regions important for wheat production.
Following the news that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are to divorce the media has been full of speculation that the split is due to Tom Cruise’s heavy involvement in the church of Scientology.
Many believe Cruise is at the very top of the organisation, which was started by L Ron Hubbard in 1952.
Holmes is said to be seeking “sole custody” of their 6 year old daughter allegedly because of her fears that Cruise would raise her as a scientologist.
Commenting on the story Murdoch has called the organisation a cult, and has told his followers on Twitter to “watch this story”.
