Seoul and Washington's new working group on North Korea officially launched on Tuesday.

Members were set to touch on a number of agendas on Pyeongyang affairs.

What stood out most was talks on inter-Korean cooperation,... including the road and rail

project which was met with positive response from the United States.

Lee Ji-won has the highlights from that session.

The U.S. says it strongly supports the inter-Korean project to link railways and roads.

That's according to South Korea's Special Representative for Korean Peninsula Peace

and Security Affairs Lee Do-hoon, who spoke to South Korean reporters after holding the

first meeting of the newly established working group on Tuesday.

At the first round of meetings, U.S. Special Representative for North Korea Stephen Biegun

allegedly said that Washington supports the project, adding that it is not a matter of

getting approval from the U.S..

There was a widespread view that the inter-Korean projects, including the rail and road links,

are much more developed than the denuclearization talks, leading to concern by Washington over

the joint efforts to continue sanctions on the regime.

A senior South Korean official familiar with the working group added that the two sides

exchanged a lot of details on the technical aspects of the project, including how to work

it out within the framework of the sanctions.

He also said that everything else has been settled, and that the South Korean government

maintains its goal to have the ground-breaking ceremony for connecting and modernizing railways

and roads within this year, as agreed in the third inter-Korean summit in September.

The official also added that the first meeting covered all of the working group's goals -- cooperation

in diplomacy, denuclearization efforts, the implementation of UN sanctions and ways in

which the two Koreas can work together within the framework of such sanctions.

The two sides allegedly exchanged developments on the ongoing North Korea-U.S. talks and

the next steps they should take as well.

And on the postponed high-level talks between U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and his

North Korean counterpart, the official said it is still being discussed and that Washington

hopes to go through with the second Kim-Trump summit early next year.

The South Korean and U.S. officials agreed to hold the working level meeting more regularly

to further improve their coordination.

The US and UK Feud on Twitter Over How to Pronounce Blink-182 | Billboard News - Duration: 1:39.

With all that's going on in today's society, we know you come to Billboard News for

the hard hitting stories shaping the world around us. Today, there is a battle raging

over exactly how we should be saying Blink-182's name.

The controversy all started when 'The Late Late Show's' co-head writer Ian Karmel

started a twitter forum with Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge. "The British call Blink-182

'Blink One Eight Two' and I'm not saying that's WHY they lost the Revolutionary War,

but..." Shots fired! It was only a matter of time before Corden and the rest of Twitter

got wind of this one and weighed in. Corden claims both countries are wrong as the

band should be called Blink One Hundred And Eighty Two. Ed_perch then posted...

"If it's a number it's one hundred and eighty two, if it's figures it's one eight two.

One eighty two just doesn't exist as an entity in the English language, fam."

But then Jared pointed out..."I get that this is a stretch, but when something costs $1.82,

I'd say "one eighty-two", so it's not entirely non existent." Boom! Tell 'em Jared!

Things started getting personal from there as users just started bringing up issues

they have with each other's culture. "The Americans call a game Football where the aim

of the game is to hold the ball in your hands.......right oh," writes Rob.

Stephen then brings up the word aluminum which we typically say "aluminum" and British

say "al-ew-mini-um."

Personally I'm just gonna go with what the band has called themselves and told us their

name was for the past 25 years: Blink "One Eighty Two" but if you want more tweets

head to billboard.com. Until next time - for Billboard News, I'm Kevan Kenney.

Gamble v. United States [SCOTUSbrief] - Duration: 3:39.

In 2008, Terance Gamble was convicted of robbery in Alabama, served his time.

Seven years later, he was pulled over for a broken tail light.

The police then smelled marijuana, searched his car, and found a couple of guns.

Now, since he was a convicted felon, he was violating the felon in possession laws, both

federal and state, and that's important because not only was he convicted under Alabama's

law against felons possessing firearms, but he then was prosecuted and convicted under

federal law.

So, the issue here is, does that double prosecution violate the Constitution's protection against

double jeopardy?

Double jeopardy protects against being tried more than once for the same crime.

This comes from the Fifth Amendment. If you're acquitted the state can't say, "Oh,

now we have more evidence.

Let's try you again."

But interestingly, there's an exception to that when there are two sovereigns involved;

that is, the states and the federal government are separate sovereigns and so the states,

as happened here, can prosecute completely separate from whatever the federal government

can do.

And so the question here is, does that violate this fundamental constitutional right against

double jeopardy?

Going back to common law, this is not a new thing.

In old England, there was a big concern about the crown prosecuting people multiple times

if they didn't like the result they were originally getting.

This even came up in the context of two sovereigns.

There were cases where an Englishman was acquitted of murder in South Africa, in Holland, and

then they were brought back and the crown tried to prosecute them and the courts weren't

having it.

And so when the United States was created, one of the fundamental protections that the

framers decided to put in was this protection against double jeopardy.

Now of course, the Fifth Amendment, the Bill of Rights, originally only applied to the

new federal government, uh, and it wasn't until much later, uh, in fact, this century,

that, uh, the double jeopardy provision was incorporated or applied to the states.

The best argument for Terance Gamble is that it doesn't matter which sovereign is prosecuting

him, he's still being tried twice for the same crime and whatever judicially-made doctrine

needs to be changed to protect his constitutional rights, the Court should follow that.

The best argument for the United States is simply that we might not like the outcome

in this or any particular case but we do have dual sovereigns.

States are indeed separate from the federal government and we can look to the discretion

of prosecutors, both federal and state.

The federal government sometimes has very good reason to try someone a second time.

We saw this in the Rodney King situation 25 years ago, where the state court acquitted

the police officers in the beginning but then federal prosecutors secured a civil rights

violation conviction.

The Court should maintain this understanding that, uh, even if, uh, sometimes we don't

like it, that these are indeed separate sovereigns.

And so they want to, uh, continue, uh, keeping,

uh, Mr. Gamble's conviction on the books and- and keep him in prison until, uh, his full

term expires in 2020.
