Win in NYC Keeps New Zealand in America's Cup Lead

Emirates Team New Zealand snatched a dramatic victory on Sunday, in the latest battle to decide who'll face defending champions the US in next year's America's Cup yachting competition.

This weekend saw the contest return to its original home, New York City, for the first time since 1920 - as part of series of races that sees five teams vie for a spot in the main event in Bermuda next year.

After a tricky beginning when they earned a penalty for crossing the start line early, the Kiwis roared from last to first place, ahead of hosts Oracle Team USA, to take the regatta with 52 points.

Skipper Glenn Ashby said some skilful positioning meant they were able to ride a sudden breeze and roar to the finish line, giving onlookers a great spectacle:

Reports of Sexual Assault Rising Sharply on US College Campuses

American students in their final year of high school are in the process of finding out which colleges have accepted their applications, and deciding which one they’ll attend.

But a new study shows the number of forcible sex crimes reported on U.S. college and university campuses more than doubled to 5,000 between 2001 and 2013.

The report, from the National Centre for Education Statistics, along with the Bureau of Justice Statistics, also showed that sex crimes increased by nearly 1000 from 2012 to 2013 alone.

Sadiq Khan praises Londoners for choosing unity over division

London has welcomed it's new Mayor. The Labour Party's Sadiq Khan becomes the first Muslim to hold the post after a bitter campaign during which his main rival, Conservative Zac Goldsmit claimed Mr Khan had links to extremists.

In the end voters chose the son of a Pakistan-born bus driver over the privately-educated heir to a fortune.

During the campaign, Mr Khan admitted before becoming an MP he did share platforms with people whose views he had sometimes opposed, through his work as a human rights lawyer, but that he was a well known anti-extremist.

In his victory speech, he pledged to represent everyone in the capital.
