:00:00. > :00:00.never wrong. Time now for a look at the news as
:00:07. > :00:10.seen across the United States a couple of hours ago, in ABC World
:00:11. > :00:19.News with Diane Sawyer. Welcome. Flash floods of war into the streets
:00:20. > :00:29.from Florida to New England. This baby was carried to safety as
:00:30. > :00:34.sinkholes swallow up the streets. On the NBA owner accused of racism as
:00:35. > :00:37.his girlfriend makes a bizarre appearance and a host of famous
:00:38. > :00:43.people talk about the buying the team to get him out. No matter how
:00:44. > :00:52.much time it takes or money it costs, we need to get him out of
:00:53. > :01:08.there. See if you can spot a liar, can a machine spot better than we
:01:09. > :01:14.can? Good evening to you. 18 million Americans are in the grip of a storm
:01:15. > :01:19.that will not quit and tonight cards are streaming in from a kind of
:01:20. > :01:24.Waterworld. One family is stranded on the front lawn. Streets are
:01:25. > :01:30.collapsing under the weight and working lots are swamped. A little
:01:31. > :01:34.girl is tucked into a kayak in her living room. Rescuers are working
:01:35. > :01:41.nonstop tonight and our correspondent is tracking it all.
:01:42. > :01:46.Relentless rain on the East Coast. Just outside Washington, DC, water
:01:47. > :01:54.rescues. This man drove onto a bridge and was trapped. He was taken
:01:55. > :02:00.to safety in an inflatable raft. A road collapsed and trapped ten cars.
:02:01. > :02:07.It is the same devastating system that has brought tornadoes and
:02:08. > :02:18.claimed so many lives. Nearly two feet of rain in Pensacola Florida
:02:19. > :02:30.turned streets into muddy Cliffs. Roads are lined with abandoned cars
:02:31. > :02:49.and more than 300 cars for abandoned drivers emergency services busy ``
:02:50. > :02:54.kept. Tell us about the rescues. We have actually had to swim to some of
:02:55. > :03:00.them. A waterfall has formed between the Street and the yard here. To
:03:01. > :03:05.give you an idea of how much rain there is, look at this. I am on the
:03:06. > :03:13.curb right now but if I stepped off, I would be knee`deep. Look at that
:03:14. > :03:18.submerged car. In Alabama, an elderly woman is carried by
:03:19. > :03:24.firefighters after her car is abandoned in a flooded street. These
:03:25. > :03:29.violent storms are packed with lightning, at one point more than
:03:30. > :03:35.1000 strikes per minute. It was so much rain here in Pensacola that at
:03:36. > :03:39.this road collapsed. There was a woman inside that truck when it
:03:40. > :03:47.happened and amazingly, she got out OK.
:03:48. > :03:53.Torrential rain is triggering these flash floods. What should you do if
:03:54. > :04:01.you are caught in one in your car? Epic amounts of water flooded the
:04:02. > :04:06.Florida Panhandle. Almost two seat in 24 hours. That is almost 9
:04:07. > :04:12.billion gallons which could fill over working thousand swimming
:04:13. > :04:19.pools. More than five inches fell in one hour. Flash flooding is too much
:04:20. > :04:25.of falling too fast and in this case, the drainage systems could not
:04:26. > :04:35.keep up. After seeing seems like this play out, it is a further
:04:36. > :04:43.reminder that blood can kill `` floods. Half of all flood related
:04:44. > :04:51.drownings are caused from driving into them. You can lose control of
:04:52. > :04:56.your car in just six inches of water and at 24 inches at your car can be
:04:57. > :05:04.swept away. So what should you do if you see water? Turnaround, don't
:05:05. > :05:10.drown. If you find yourself in an emergency situation, you will need
:05:11. > :05:16.one of these, an emergency Hammer. You can break right through the
:05:17. > :05:19.window and get yourself out. As far as the forecast goes tonight, we may
:05:20. > :05:27.have to see more rescues. Look at the numbers. Another two or three
:05:28. > :05:41.inches is expected tonight, anywhere from DC up to Boston.
:05:42. > :05:45.We now head west, where a wildfire is raging in Southern California,
:05:46. > :05:47.fuelled by ferocious winds. So far it is tearing across 800 acres and
:05:48. > :05:57.counting. More than 1600 families have been evacuated.
:05:58. > :05:59.90 degrees and wins nearly 90 mph. Today turning these suburbs east of
:06:00. > :06:05.Adelaide into a conviction of them. I saw big flames. The condition so
:06:06. > :06:12.treacherous more than 1600 homeowners had to evacuate. They
:06:13. > :06:15.said grab as much as you can because they might come and evacuate
:06:16. > :06:19.everybody. Schools closed and some parents got worrying text messages
:06:20. > :06:24.from their kids. We RBKC school because of the fire. That's all.
:06:25. > :06:29.Kind of scary because it is close to home. The winds are so fears they
:06:30. > :06:37.have grounded helicopters and aircraft that would normally be used
:06:38. > :06:42.to battle blaze this. `` battle ablaze. When we have a break in the
:06:43. > :06:46.whether we can bring the resources in. Instead, firefighters have been
:06:47. > :06:51.struggling over steep Touraine to get to the fire. These winds are at
:06:52. > :06:56.hurricane strength. There is no sign they will let up. In fact, read flat
:06:57. > :07:03.warnings across much of this region tomorrow.
:07:04. > :07:09.From the wildfire at West we now turn to the fire storm. This is over
:07:10. > :07:14.the NBA owner now slapped with a lifetime ban any danger of losing
:07:15. > :07:19.his team over racist remarks. An unlikely gallery of famous people
:07:20. > :07:21.might now be lining up to make it did for the team.
:07:22. > :07:27.We have the fast breaking details tonight. Oprah Winfrey says she is
:07:28. > :07:32.in discussions with the music mogul and software billionaire to make a
:07:33. > :07:38.joint did for the Clippers. Yesterday she told TMC she wasn't
:07:39. > :07:44.interested. I won't be but I hear Magic Johnson might be! He denies he
:07:45. > :07:52.wants the team but today Floyd Mayweather said he does. We do want
:07:53. > :07:56.to buy the Clippers and we can afford them. Before any of that
:07:57. > :08:04.happens, 75% of NBA team owners must vote to force the disgraced Clippers
:08:05. > :08:08.loss to sell. Today, we called all 2019 owners to ask how they would
:08:09. > :08:11.vote. They all told us the NBA told them to stay silent. Only one of
:08:12. > :08:19.them from the Sacramento Kings said he would vote to oust him. These
:08:20. > :08:24.teams really belong to the fans and players and we owners are simply
:08:25. > :08:27.cast audience. I fully expect he will get the support he seeks.
:08:28. > :08:36.Today, LeBron James turned up the pressure. Them at how long it takes
:08:37. > :08:39.or how much money it costs, we need to get him out of there. Whoever is
:08:40. > :08:43.so she could with him, he doesn't belong in the league. How do you
:08:44. > :08:47.think the owners will vote? He is going, it's a done deal. He has been
:08:48. > :08:55.in seclusion. All the women in his life basking in the attention. And
:08:56. > :08:56.the woman heard on the tape last night had some bizarre comments of
:08:57. > :09:09.her own. Earlier, she rollerskating away from
:09:10. > :09:13.reporters, still wearing that visor. What happens next, the NBA says
:09:14. > :09:18.there's no time to remove Donald Stirling from ownership. In the
:09:19. > :09:22.meantime, they say officials plan to meet tomorrow to discuss the next
:09:23. > :09:28.steps and move the process forward. Thank you. Now, in Washington, the
:09:29. > :09:34.brutal battle over the minimum wage in this country. Republicans in the
:09:35. > :09:46.Senate filibuster wanting to raise the minimum wage to $10.10. It has
:09:47. > :09:50.now stalled at $7.25. Now the national debate over the death
:09:51. > :09:53.penalty. An execution in Oklahoma raising new questions about cruel
:09:54. > :10:01.and unusual punishment. Last night, a convicted killer suffered and
:10:02. > :10:03.apparent seizure before dying from a new form of lethal injection. David
:10:04. > :10:08.Whitehouse criticised it, saying it was not humane. The death sentence
:10:09. > :10:11.for a second inmate was postponed to re`examine their methods. `` the
:10:12. > :10:16.White House criticised it. Today, the White House was feeling
:10:17. > :10:23.the heat over a new debate over Benghazi. The attack on the US
:10:24. > :10:26.consulate that killed four Americans. A new e`mail pulls into
:10:27. > :10:33.question what they said about their role.
:10:34. > :10:40.18 months after the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four
:10:41. > :10:44.Americans. Newly released e`mail says the White House blamed the
:10:45. > :10:47.attacks on an anti` Islamic video in order to reflect criticism of the
:10:48. > :10:50.President's Cup was his. The previous secret e`mail list top
:10:51. > :10:54.goals for Susan Rice, she prepared for a now infamous round of
:10:55. > :11:00.interviews just days after the attacks, saying she should:
:11:01. > :11:11.That's what she said. In reaction to this very offensive video that was
:11:12. > :11:14.disseminated. The White House says her talking points came from the
:11:15. > :11:19.intelligence community but the e`mail was written by a top
:11:20. > :11:20.political aide. The former CIA director recently said the
:11:21. > :11:24.intelligence community didn't agree with what she said. When she talked
:11:25. > :11:30.about the video, my reaction was it wasn't something the analysts had
:11:31. > :11:33.exhibited to the action. The White House says the e`mail doesn't change
:11:34. > :11:37.the story but it was only released in response to a lawsuit demanding
:11:38. > :11:40.all Benghazi related e`mails. Why were you holding back this
:11:41. > :12:20.information? Why wasn't the e`mail handed over to Congress? Again,
:12:21. > :12:24.and other investigation. Thank you. Overseas tonight, the
:12:25. > :12:27.situation in Ukraine continues to intensify. Today the acting
:12:28. > :12:29.president says they are helpless in the face of pro`Russian forces that
:12:30. > :12:34.have seized yet another city tonight. Our chief global affairs
:12:35. > :12:39.correspondent is in the region tonight. She will be reporting for
:12:40. > :12:44.us on the reality on the ground tomorrow night.
:12:45. > :12:50.Up next, a kind of showdown. Look at these two faces. Can you tell which
:12:51. > :12:55.person is faking how they feel and which one is not? Can a new computer
:12:56. > :13:36.do it much better, spotting all our lives? `` lies?
:13:37. > :13:44.We begin with a familiar face and new message about resilience and
:13:45. > :13:51.fighting your way back. It has been more than three years since a gunman
:13:52. > :13:56.changed Gabrielle differed's life. It was great to hear last night at
:13:57. > :14:01.an event in Washington she says she is still healing and making progress
:14:02. > :14:09.with therapy and Logar. I am working with a lot of speech therapy,
:14:10. > :14:16.physical therapy and Yoko. But my spirit is as strong as ever. I'm
:14:17. > :14:21.still fighting to make the world a better place.
:14:22. > :14:25.And we have an answer tonight the ancient question, who is the fairest
:14:26. > :14:33.of them all? If not the fairest and most popular. More popular than all
:14:34. > :14:41.of these characters is Elsa from Frozen. And her sister came in at
:14:42. > :14:46.number four. The rankings are based on sales of merchandise on eBay.
:14:47. > :14:49.Next, you remember the two faces we showed you before the break? Which
:14:50. > :14:58.one is faking how they feel? Which one isn't? If you set the man is
:14:59. > :15:01.truthful, you are wrong. It turns out there is a new computer that is
:15:02. > :15:07.better than humans at spotting our lives. This is the brand`new
:15:08. > :15:11.research that proves it. Here is the simple test researchers
:15:12. > :15:15.gave to people and a computer. Is this man in pain or faking it? What
:15:16. > :15:21.about this woman? The answers in a moment. Who won, the computer all
:15:22. > :15:27.humans? The computer was a lot that are at it. Humans were right half
:15:28. > :15:33.the time and the computer's success rate was 85%. We recreated the
:15:34. > :15:39.experiment. My arm is in a bucket of iced water. Here, I am in real pain.
:15:40. > :15:44.On the right eye and faking it. But what are the signs of genuine agony?
:15:45. > :15:48.It is all about how we move the muscles. There is a corrugated
:15:49. > :15:54.muscle between the eyebrows and another muscle here, which raises
:15:55. > :16:00.your lip. And this tightening around the eyes. With real pain, the muscle
:16:01. > :16:04.movement is more Brandon Tate variable and fleeting. It turned out
:16:05. > :16:09.that fakers were opening and closing their mouths to consistently. A
:16:10. > :16:14.computer is much better at detecting and deciphering the patterns of pain
:16:15. > :16:17.than we are. We are evaluating whether a system like this can be
:16:18. > :16:23.used in a clinical study. Doctors might no longer need to ask on a
:16:24. > :16:31.scale of one to ten house or it is. Maybe one day we will know. Real
:16:32. > :16:35.pain or tantrum? `` how sore it is. With kids, can we do better at
:16:36. > :16:40.estimating their pain intensity, so their pain can be better managed.
:16:41. > :16:47.Other computers are recognising around 21 different expressions,
:16:48. > :16:49.like angrily surprised. This technology might one day replace the
:16:50. > :16:52.polygraph as a lie detector test and could be used in airport security.
:16:53. > :16:59.Remember the guy we showed you? He was faking. The woman was genuinely
:17:00. > :17:03.in pain. I got it wrong. But I am only human and apparently computers
:17:04. > :17:11.are now better at reading alt expressions than we are.
:17:12. > :17:25.Thank you for watching. See you again tomorrow night.
:17:26. > :17:31.Some more settled weather heading our way for the bank will at a
:17:32. > :17:37.weekend. We had some decent weather across the south during the day on
:17:38. > :17:38.Wednesday. `` bank holiday weekend. Cold air is guiltily
