Olivia Inglis a seventeen year old girl who was killed at a cross country show. Olivia comes from a well known horse racing, breeding and horse sales family. Their family also owns a company called William Inglis and Son that was established in 1867. Their company hosts series of events including horse shows throughout the year.
Olivia was considered a great rider. She was at a cross country show in Australia when she died. She was jumping a 1.1 meter high obstacle, when her horse hit his knee on the obstacle and flipped on top of her. Olivia received immediate help, but could not be revived. Olivia was only about half way through the course when the accident happened. Her horse Coriolanus had said to be not seriously injured, until he went through more X-rays. They found that he had fractured part of his neck. Sadly he then had to be euthanized. With this tragic story there has come great joy. Equestrian riders and horse lovers have started tributes around the world. It's all over social media. It is amazing to see how many people post pictures of them with their horses for #RideForOlivia. Olivia Inglis will forever stay in our hearts.

FBI Unlocks iPhone Without Apple's Help

Apple is being forced to unlock the privacy settings on an iPhone by the FBI. The FBI is trying to catch some killers on the run. The only problem is that Apple is known for their good privacy. If they unlock the iPhones, then they unlock everybody's and all their information can be leaked to other criminals. Also they would lose a lot of money and customers from their business. This issue came into the spotlight after a man named Edward Snowden disclosed the extent of technology and phone companies that are letting the U.S. federal government spy on data being transmitted to their network. I think that Apple should help the FBI but at the same time I don't. I think they should because they are helping other people from getting killed, but I also think they shouldn't because everybody's information would be opened. They would probably lose a lot of business, but maybe not, because people would understand that they are helping others from being killed.
