never wrong. Time now for a look at the news as

:00:00.:00:00.

seen across the United States a couple of hours ago, in ABC World

:00:07.:00:10.

News with Diane Sawyer. Welcome. Flash floods of war into the streets

:00:11.:00:19.

from Florida to New England. This baby was carried to safety as

:00:20.:00:29.

sinkholes swallow up the streets. On the NBA owner accused of racism as

:00:30.:00:34.

his girlfriend makes a bizarre appearance and a host of famous

:00:35.:00:37.

people talk about the buying the team to get him out. No matter how

:00:38.:00:43.

much time it takes or money it costs, we need to get him out of

:00:44.:00:52.

there. See if you can spot a liar, can a machine spot better than we

:00:53.:01:08.

can? Good evening to you. 18 million Americans are in the grip of a storm

:01:09.:01:14.

that will not quit and tonight cards are streaming in from a kind of

:01:15.:01:19.

Waterworld. One family is stranded on the front lawn. Streets are

:01:20.:01:24.

collapsing under the weight and working lots are swamped. A little

:01:25.:01:30.

girl is tucked into a kayak in her living room. Rescuers are working

:01:31.:01:34.

nonstop tonight and our correspondent is tracking it all.

:01:35.:01:41.

Relentless rain on the East Coast. Just outside Washington, DC, water

:01:42.:01:46.

rescues. This man drove onto a bridge and was trapped. He was taken

:01:47.:01:54.

to safety in an inflatable raft. A road collapsed and trapped ten cars.

:01:55.:02:00.

It is the same devastating system that has brought tornadoes and

:02:01.:02:07.

claimed so many lives. Nearly two feet of rain in Pensacola Florida

:02:08.:02:18.

turned streets into muddy Cliffs. Roads are lined with abandoned cars

:02:19.:02:30.

and more than 300 cars for abandoned drivers emergency services busy ``

:02:31.:02:49.

kept. Tell us about the rescues. We have actually had to swim to some of

:02:50.:02:54.

them. A waterfall has formed between the Street and the yard here. To

:02:55.:03:00.

give you an idea of how much rain there is, look at this. I am on the

:03:01.:03:05.

curb right now but if I stepped off, I would be knee`deep. Look at that

:03:06.:03:13.

submerged car. In Alabama, an elderly woman is carried by

:03:14.:03:18.

firefighters after her car is abandoned in a flooded street. These

:03:19.:03:24.

violent storms are packed with lightning, at one point more than

:03:25.:03:29.

1000 strikes per minute. It was so much rain here in Pensacola that at

:03:30.:03:35.

this road collapsed. There was a woman inside that truck when it

:03:36.:03:39.

happened and amazingly, she got out OK.

:03:40.:03:47.

Torrential rain is triggering these flash floods. What should you do if

:03:48.:03:53.

you are caught in one in your car? Epic amounts of water flooded the

:03:54.:04:01.

Florida Panhandle. Almost two seat in 24 hours. That is almost 9

:04:02.:04:06.

billion gallons which could fill over working thousand swimming

:04:07.:04:12.

pools. More than five inches fell in one hour. Flash flooding is too much

:04:13.:04:19.

of falling too fast and in this case, the drainage systems could not

:04:20.:04:25.

keep up. After seeing seems like this play out, it is a further

:04:26.:04:35.

reminder that blood can kill `` floods. Half of all flood related

:04:36.:04:43.

drownings are caused from driving into them. You can lose control of

:04:44.:04:51.

your car in just six inches of water and at 24 inches at your car can be

:04:52.:04:56.

swept away. So what should you do if you see water? Turnaround, don't

:04:57.:05:04.

drown. If you find yourself in an emergency situation, you will need

:05:05.:05:10.

one of these, an emergency Hammer. You can break right through the

:05:11.:05:16.

window and get yourself out. As far as the forecast goes tonight, we may

:05:17.:05:19.

have to see more rescues. Look at the numbers. Another two or three

:05:20.:05:27.

inches is expected tonight, anywhere from DC up to Boston.

:05:28.:05:41.

We now head west, where a wildfire is raging in Southern California,

:05:42.:05:45.

fuelled by ferocious winds. So far it is tearing across 800 acres and

:05:46.:05:47.

counting. More than 1600 families have been evacuated.

:05:48.:05:57.

90 degrees and wins nearly 90 mph. Today turning these suburbs east of

:05:58.:05:59.

Adelaide into a conviction of them. I saw big flames. The condition so

:06:00.:06:05.

treacherous more than 1600 homeowners had to evacuate. They

:06:06.:06:12.

said grab as much as you can because they might come and evacuate

:06:13.:06:15.

everybody. Schools closed and some parents got worrying text messages

:06:16.:06:19.

from their kids. We RBKC school because of the fire. That's all.

:06:20.:06:24.

Kind of scary because it is close to home. The winds are so fears they

:06:25.:06:29.

have grounded helicopters and aircraft that would normally be used

:06:30.:06:37.

to battle blaze this. `` battle ablaze. When we have a break in the

:06:38.:06:42.

whether we can bring the resources in. Instead, firefighters have been

:06:43.:06:46.

struggling over steep Touraine to get to the fire. These winds are at

:06:47.:06:51.

hurricane strength. There is no sign they will let up. In fact, read flat

:06:52.:06:56.

warnings across much of this region tomorrow.

:06:57.:07:03.

From the wildfire at West we now turn to the fire storm. This is over

:07:04.:07:09.

the NBA owner now slapped with a lifetime ban any danger of losing

:07:10.:07:14.

his team over racist remarks. An unlikely gallery of famous people

:07:15.:07:19.

might now be lining up to make it did for the team.

:07:20.:07:21.

We have the fast breaking details tonight. Oprah Winfrey says she is

:07:22.:07:27.

in discussions with the music mogul and software billionaire to make a

:07:28.:07:32.

joint did for the Clippers. Yesterday she told TMC she wasn't

:07:33.:07:38.

interested. I won't be but I hear Magic Johnson might be! He denies he

:07:39.:07:44.

wants the team but today Floyd Mayweather said he does. We do want

:07:45.:07:52.

to buy the Clippers and we can afford them. Before any of that

:07:53.:07:56.

happens, 75% of NBA team owners must vote to force the disgraced Clippers

:07:57.:08:04.

loss to sell. Today, we called all 2019 owners to ask how they would

:08:05.:08:08.

vote. They all told us the NBA told them to stay silent. Only one of

:08:09.:08:11.

them from the Sacramento Kings said he would vote to oust him. These

:08:12.:08:19.

teams really belong to the fans and players and we owners are simply

:08:20.:08:24.

cast audience. I fully expect he will get the support he seeks.

:08:25.:08:27.

Today, LeBron James turned up the pressure. Them at how long it takes

:08:28.:08:36.

or how much money it costs, we need to get him out of there. Whoever is

:08:37.:08:39.

so she could with him, he doesn't belong in the league. How do you

:08:40.:08:43.

think the owners will vote? He is going, it's a done deal. He has been

:08:44.:08:47.

in seclusion. All the women in his life basking in the attention. And

:08:48.:08:55.

the woman heard on the tape last night had some bizarre comments of

:08:56.:08:56.

her own. Earlier, she rollerskating away from

:08:57.:09:09.

reporters, still wearing that visor. What happens next, the NBA says

:09:10.:09:13.

there's no time to remove Donald Stirling from ownership. In the

:09:14.:09:18.

meantime, they say officials plan to meet tomorrow to discuss the next

:09:19.:09:22.

steps and move the process forward. Thank you. Now, in Washington, the

:09:23.:09:28.

brutal battle over the minimum wage in this country. Republicans in the

:09:29.:09:34.

Senate filibuster wanting to raise the minimum wage to $10.10. It has

:09:35.:09:46.

now stalled at $7.25. Now the national debate over the death

:09:47.:09:50.

penalty. An execution in Oklahoma raising new questions about cruel

:09:51.:09:53.

and unusual punishment. Last night, a convicted killer suffered and

:09:54.:10:01.

apparent seizure before dying from a new form of lethal injection. David

:10:02.:10:03.

Whitehouse criticised it, saying it was not humane. The death sentence

:10:04.:10:08.

for a second inmate was postponed to re`examine their methods. `` the

:10:09.:10:11.

White House criticised it. Today, the White House was feeling

:10:12.:10:16.

the heat over a new debate over Benghazi. The attack on the US

:10:17.:10:23.

consulate that killed four Americans. A new e`mail pulls into

:10:24.:10:26.

question what they said about their role.

:10:27.:10:33.

18 months after the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four

:10:34.:10:40.

Americans. Newly released e`mail says the White House blamed the

:10:41.:10:44.

attacks on an anti` Islamic video in order to reflect criticism of the

:10:45.:10:47.

President's Cup was his. The previous secret e`mail list top

:10:48.:10:50.

goals for Susan Rice, she prepared for a now infamous round of

:10:51.:10:54.

interviews just days after the attacks, saying she should:

:10:55.:11:00.

That's what she said. In reaction to this very offensive video that was

:11:01.:11:11.

disseminated. The White House says her talking points came from the

:11:12.:11:14.

intelligence community but the e`mail was written by a top

:11:15.:11:19.

political aide. The former CIA director recently said the

:11:20.:11:20.

intelligence community didn't agree with what she said. When she talked

:11:21.:11:24.

about the video, my reaction was it wasn't something the analysts had

:11:25.:11:30.

exhibited to the action. The White House says the e`mail doesn't change

:11:31.:11:33.

the story but it was only released in response to a lawsuit demanding

:11:34.:11:37.

all Benghazi related e`mails. Why were you holding back this

:11:38.:11:40.

information? Why wasn't the e`mail handed over to Congress? Again,

:11:41.:12:20.

and other investigation. Thank you. Overseas tonight, the

:12:21.:12:24.

situation in Ukraine continues to intensify. Today the acting

:12:25.:12:27.

president says they are helpless in the face of pro`Russian forces that

:12:28.:12:29.

have seized yet another city tonight. Our chief global affairs

:12:30.:12:34.

correspondent is in the region tonight. She will be reporting for

:12:35.:12:39.

us on the reality on the ground tomorrow night.

:12:40.:12:44.

Up next, a kind of showdown. Look at these two faces. Can you tell which

:12:45.:12:50.

person is faking how they feel and which one is not? Can a new computer

:12:51.:12:55.

do it much better, spotting all our lives? `` lies?

:12:56.:13:36.

We begin with a familiar face and new message about resilience and

:13:37.:13:44.

fighting your way back. It has been more than three years since a gunman

:13:45.:13:51.

changed Gabrielle differed's life. It was great to hear last night at

:13:52.:13:56.

an event in Washington she says she is still healing and making progress

:13:57.:14:01.

with therapy and Logar. I am working with a lot of speech therapy,

:14:02.:14:09.

physical therapy and Yoko. But my spirit is as strong as ever. I'm

:14:10.:14:16.

still fighting to make the world a better place.

:14:17.:14:21.

And we have an answer tonight the ancient question, who is the fairest

:14:22.:14:25.

of them all? If not the fairest and most popular. More popular than all

:14:26.:14:33.

of these characters is Elsa from Frozen. And her sister came in at

:14:34.:14:41.

number four. The rankings are based on sales of merchandise on eBay.

:14:42.:14:46.

Next, you remember the two faces we showed you before the break? Which

:14:47.:14:49.

one is faking how they feel? Which one isn't? If you set the man is

:14:50.:14:58.

truthful, you are wrong. It turns out there is a new computer that is

:14:59.:15:01.

better than humans at spotting our lives. This is the brand`new

:15:02.:15:07.

research that proves it. Here is the simple test researchers

:15:08.:15:11.

gave to people and a computer. Is this man in pain or faking it? What

:15:12.:15:15.

about this woman? The answers in a moment. Who won, the computer all

:15:16.:15:21.

humans? The computer was a lot that are at it. Humans were right half

:15:22.:15:27.

the time and the computer's success rate was 85%. We recreated the

:15:28.:15:33.

experiment. My arm is in a bucket of iced water. Here, I am in real pain.

:15:34.:15:39.

On the right eye and faking it. But what are the signs of genuine agony?

:15:40.:15:44.

It is all about how we move the muscles. There is a corrugated

:15:45.:15:48.

muscle between the eyebrows and another muscle here, which raises

:15:49.:15:54.

your lip. And this tightening around the eyes. With real pain, the muscle

:15:55.:16:00.

movement is more Brandon Tate variable and fleeting. It turned out

:16:01.:16:04.

that fakers were opening and closing their mouths to consistently. A

:16:05.:16:09.

computer is much better at detecting and deciphering the patterns of pain

:16:10.:16:14.

than we are. We are evaluating whether a system like this can be

:16:15.:16:17.

used in a clinical study. Doctors might no longer need to ask on a

:16:18.:16:23.

scale of one to ten house or it is. Maybe one day we will know. Real

:16:24.:16:31.

pain or tantrum? `` how sore it is. With kids, can we do better at

:16:32.:16:35.

estimating their pain intensity, so their pain can be better managed.

:16:36.:16:40.

Other computers are recognising around 21 different expressions,

:16:41.:16:47.

like angrily surprised. This technology might one day replace the

:16:48.:16:49.

polygraph as a lie detector test and could be used in airport security.

:16:50.:16:52.

Remember the guy we showed you? He was faking. The woman was genuinely

:16:53.:16:59.

in pain. I got it wrong. But I am only human and apparently computers

:17:00.:17:03.

are now better at reading alt expressions than we are.

:17:04.:17:11.

Thank you for watching. See you again tomorrow night.

:17:12.:17:25.

Some more settled weather heading our way for the bank will at a

:17:26.:17:31.

weekend. We had some decent weather across the south during the day on

:17:32.:17:37.

Wednesday. `` bank holiday weekend. Cold air is guiltily

:17:38.:17:38.
