Five things you need to know

1. California's 'Camp Fire' is now the deadliest in state history

The 'Camp Fire' continues to rage in California and has now become the deadliest wildfire in state history claiming 42 lives. The fire has burned a total of 117,000 acres, forced the evacuation of 52,000 people, destroyed 6,453 homes and is only 30% contained.

ABC’s @WillCarr reports from Paradise, CA, which has been devastated by the Camp Fire; more than 200 people are still missing.

2. New Zealand paper botches Stan Lee obituary

The Gisborne Herald may want to hire/fire an editor after a glaring misprint appeared on Tuesday's front page. The paper announced the death of movie director "Spike Lee" instead comic book genius "Stan Lee" who passed away on Monday.

3. McGill University holds student vote over sport's team's name

In a non-binding vote organized by McGill's student union, nearly 80% of students voted in favour of removing the name Redmen from the men’s varsity teams. While the name is said to stem from colours worn by the team in the 1920s, press and fans have often used Indigenous symbols, connotations and unofficial nicknames in relation to the team.

McGill students make it clear, change the Re*men name. Congrats @theSSMU Indigenous Affairs! I hope that McGill will recognize your leadership & finally change the name. Indigenous students started this in the 70s, again in 1992, & it needs to end in 2018. https://t.co/83Al1d9Wdb
