Divers progress in search for missing Thai children trapped in cave 

Posted: 30 Jun 2018 04:51 AM PDT

Divers progress in search for missing Thai children trapped in cave Rescue divers reached several kilometres inside a flooded cave Saturday where 12 boys and their football coach have been trapped for a week, offering a flicker of hope for the harrowing search. There has been no contact with the boys, aged 11 to 16, and their coach since they went into the Tham Luang cave in northern Thailand last weekend and were hemmed in by heavy rains that blocked the entrance. The desperate, round-the-clock search for the team has been beset by torrential downpours that submerged tunnels near the entrance, blocking divers from going in. But Navy SEAL divers reached a T-junction in the depths of the cave just one to two miles from where the boys are believed to be, Chiang Rai governor Narongsak Osottanakorn said. Divers reached the same spot earlier in the week but were forced back by rushing floodwaters.

Water levels inside the complex labyrinth of tunnels finally dropped thanks to dozens of pumps set up to drain the floods even as heavy rain continued to pound the area near the Myanmar and Laos borders. "The situation is better today than yesterday and the day before. Water has receded considerably and we are pumping out water in all chambers (near the entrance)," Narongsak told reporters. As the search for the boys hit its seventh day, attention turned to their chances of survival inside the cave with little or no food and light. The group likely has access to fresh water - either dripping in through rocks or rushing in through the entrance - but experts warned that runoff water from nearby farms could carry dangerous chemicals or bacteria. "If they drink the water in the caves and it makes them sick it could hasten the problem that they are in, but if they don't drink it then they are also in trouble," Anmar Mirza, coordinator of the US National Cave Rescue Commission, told AFP. But even without food he said young, athletic boys could "easily live for a month or a month and a half" with the main challenge their mental resolve. "The biggest issue that they are facing right now if they are alive is psychological because they don't know at what point they might get rescued," Mirza said by phone from the US state of Indiana. Practice drills The dramatic week-long rescue has galvanised the nation and prompted emotional outpourings online from well-wishers praying for their safe return. Cartoon images of the smiling boys being found by divers circulated along with messages for the team: "Stay Strong, We are Coming" and "Don't Give Up". Teams of foreign experts, including more than 30 US military personnel, have descended on the remote mountainous site to join some 1,000 Thai rescuers. Australian, Chinese and Japanese experts also joined efforts. "We have the skills of cave rescue and rope rescue so we can try to do something for the children," James Wang, from China's Green Boat Emergency Rescue, told AFP.

One team was drilling into a 40-metre (130-foot) chimney that led to a muddy chamber, which the governor described as a "promising" lead. But there was still no indication it linked to the main cave complex. "We have been rotating our staff into the chimney since yesterday, they are inside... still searching and we are waiting for their findings," Surachai Thathes, chief of the parks ministry rescue team for northern Thailand, told AFP. Another chimney was discovered nearby and helicopters carrying food, water and medical supplies were dispatched to the area. But the main priority was trying to reach the boys through the main entrance, governor Narongsak said. Earlier in the day medics and police staged practice drills to prepare for the quick and complex evacuations that will be required if and when the boys are found. Stone-faced relatives kept vigil under a makeshift tent near shrines where monks are leading prayers near shrines overflowing with offerings. Stretching 10 kilometres (six miles) and with complicated, snaking pathways and narrow corridors, Tham Luang is one one of Thailand's longest and toughest caves to navigate. Officials said the boys know the site well and have visited many times before, buoying hopes that they might have trekked to a large airy chamber in the centre. Rescuers found footprints and handprints in a chamber near that spot earlier in the week, further in from where they found the kids' football boots, backpacks and bicycles.

People are sending wire hangers to a senator who they think is too soft on protecting abortion rights

Posted: 29 Jun 2018 01:21 PM PDT

People are sending wire hangers to a senator who they think is too soft on protecting abortion rightsPeople are sending a warning to a senator whose stance on protecting abortion rights isn't strong enough for them. On Wednesday, after U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement, Republican Senator Susan Collins said she views Roe v. Wade — the ruling that ensures nation-wide abortion access — as "settled law."  "It's clearly precedent," she said on Wednesday when asked about her stance on protecting abortion laws. "I always look for judges who respect precedent." SEE ALSO: After Kennedy's retirement, are we entering 'Handmaid's Tale' territory? But on Thursday, her commitment to upholding Roe v. Wade seemed shaky. Her spokeswoman Annie Clark told the Portland Press Herald that Collins "always looks at their judicial temperament" and "respect for precedent" when evaluating judges, and then clarified that the senator "does not apply ideological litmus tests" to nominees.  Many viewed this as Clark implying that even though Collins supports "precedent," she wouldn't outright oppose nominees who were vocally against access to abortions.  That wasn't a strong enough stance for some Twitter users, who rallied together to mail clothes hangers to Collins' offices in Maine and Washington, D.C. as a dark reminder of the gruesome ways women sometimes dealt with unwanted pregnancies before abortion was legal.  Collins's gift to women: pic.twitter.com/YkgHoWHOTw — June Casagrande (@JuneCasagrande) June 29, 2018 The trend seems to have started with author and podcaster June Casagrande, who responded to a tweet condemning Collins' statement with a photo of a hanger. Another Twitter user commented, "Shower these on [Collins'] doorstep." "It's already begun," Casagrande responded, sharing a screenshot of an Amazon order for wire hangers shipped to the senator's D.C. office. It's already begun. pic.twitter.com/Rr2BE1JZH9 — June Casagrande (@JuneCasagrande) June 29, 2018 Others jumped in on the #HangersForCollins trend to make a statement. Thanks for the idea! pic.twitter.com/pOdMtbVLqi — Jennifer Resists �� (@jennwheeler) June 29, 2018 Hey maine, why don't we all send letters to @SenatorCollins ...glued to coat hangers. Sen Collins, you dishonor the memory of Margaret Chase Smith and Olympia Snowe. Shame on you. https://t.co/3AOz0gRqkx — Prof. Sarah Parcak (@indyfromspace) June 29, 2018 Thank you for the idea - mine are on the way. pic.twitter.com/QfLC3P3CMu — Kim Koberstein (@kkoberstein) June 29, 2018 pic.twitter.com/5ypdAGsYZm — DaisyStableGeniusDuck (@eestesx3) June 29, 2018 Thanks for the inspiration pic.twitter.com/8ajwgcF6XI — joy meads (@capnjoy) June 29, 2018 One account suggested sending blood-red hangers for an especially severe message. ���� ... Also purchase new (preferably in blood �� red color if available) or clean out your closet and mail old, used coat hangers to ����#SelloutSusan����‍♀️ #SusanCollins to her Bangor Office address����202 Harlow Street, Room 20100Bangor, ME 04401☎️ (207) 945-0417 pic.twitter.com/UsJwgWyozz — OceanSolitudeMaine (@OceanSolitudeME) June 29, 2018 Even Canadians, in a show of neighborly support, wanted to help out. As Casagrande pointed out, their monetary contributions to pro-choice organizations could make a difference. It makes me so grateful to see people in Canada caring about Americans in these perilous times! I'm not really set up to create that kind of effort. But I think there's no better solution than what you (and I) are already doing: contributing to pro-choice orgs. — June Casagrande (@JuneCasagrande) June 29, 2018 Since news broke of Kennedy's retirement, people in the U.S. have worried over whether pro-choice rights will remain protected, should President Donald Trump nominate a candidate that wants to overturn the ruling. Kennedy co-authored the opinion in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, a landmark 1992 case that guaranteed a continued right to abortion for women.  Collins and Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, who are both Republicans, are potential swing votes on Trump's Supreme Court pick. Together, they can reject a nominee who might vote in favor of overturning Roe v. Wade. It remains to be seen whether #HangersForCollins will sway their opinion.

Iraq executes 12 after PM calls for speedy executionsBy Ahmed Aboulenein BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq put to death 12 people convicted of terrorism hours after Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi called for speedy executions in response to the kidnapping and killing of eight members of the security forces, the government said on Friday. Late on Thursday Abadi had ordered "just retribution" through faster executions of al those on death row for terrorism convictions who had exhausted their appeals.

Bali volcano erupts: Thousands of tourists stranded as ash closes airport

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 09:58 PM PDT

Bali volcano erupts: Thousands of tourists stranded as ash closes airportThe Indonesian tourist island of Bali closed its international airport on Friday, stranding thousands of travellers, as the Mount Agung volcano gushed an 8,200-feet column of ash and smoke. The National Disaster Mitigation Agency said nearly 450 flights were cancelled, affecting some 75,000 people. The regional Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in Darwin, Australia, said winds would carry the ash southwest toward Java, Indonesia's most densely populated island. Volcanic ash is a potentially deadly threat to aircraft that can cause engines to "flame out." The volcano began belching ash and smoke on Thursday and several airlines cancelled inbound and outbound flights scheduled for the evening. "We hadn't a place to stay for the night so we had to find something else, just took a taxi and stayed at a random hostel," said a stranded German backpacker who identified herself as Louisa. "We hoped we could leave this morning, but the airport is closed," she said. Mount Agung - Bali Two small airports, at Banyuwangi and Jember in eastern Java, also closed because of the ash threat. Agung's alert level has not been raised and an exclusion zone around the crater remains at 2.5 miles. The disaster agency said the closure of Bali's airport was in effect until 7 pm.  Australia's national airline Qantas said in a statement that it's "currently not safe" to operate Bali flights. A flight information board shows cancelled flights at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali Credit: AP It said it was monitoring advice from the ash advisory centre and its own pilots and meteorologists would decide when flights can resume. Australian visitor Rod Bird came early to the airport only to be told his flight back to Perth had been cancelled for the second time. An earlier flight on AirAsia was called off before the airport was shuttered early Friday morning. "They told us the volcano is going off so they rebooked us for this morning and we got here at 5:00 am only to be turned away again. So we've had two cancelled flights," Bird told AFP. "Well it's Bali, these things happen and we are fine with it. We just miss the kids," he added. Tourists rest as Ngurah Rai International Airport is closed due to the eruption of Mount Agung in Bali Credit: AP The volcano, about 45 miles northeast of Bali's tourist hotspot of Kuta, last had a major eruption in 1963, killing about 1,100 people. It had a dramatic increase in activity last year, forcing the evacuation of tens of thousands of people, but had quietened by early this year. Authorities lowered its alert status from the highest level in February. Indonesia, an archipelago of more than 250 million people, sits on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" and is prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Government seismologists monitor more than 120 active volcanoes.

Obama says we are 'right to be concerned' but to focus on 'hope.' WE'RE TRYING.

Obama says we are 'right to be concerned' but to focus on 'hope.' WE'RE TRYING.After a prolonged period of silence, former President Barack Obama spoke at a Democratic National Committee Fundraiser in California last night and offered a few words of wisdom. "You are right to be concerned," Obama said. As Politico reported, he cautioning the crowd: "Do not wait for the perfect message, don't wait to feel a tingle in your spine because you're expecting politicians to be so inspiring and poetic and moving that somehow, 'OK, I'll get off my couch after all and go spend the 15-20 minutes it takes for me to vote." SEE ALSO: Barack Obama finally breaks his silence on immigration controversy, and it's kind of a let down Obama told donors and organizers in the crowd to focus their energy on one emotion — hope. "All these people that are out here kvetching and wringing their hands and stressed and anxious and constantly watching cable TV and howling at the moon, 'What are we going to do?,' their hair's falling out, they can't sleep," Obama said. "The majority of the American people prefer a story of hope. A majority of the American people prefer a country that comes together rather than being divided. The majority of the country doesn't want to see a dog-eat-dog world where everybody is angry all the time." Thanks, Obama? Though far easier said than done. You can read more of his comments here.

Five-metre great white shark spotted off Majorca in first confirmed sighting in decades

Five-metre great white shark spotted off Majorca in first confirmed sighting in decadesAgreat white shark has been spotted in a marine park in Spain's Balearic Islands, in the first confirmed sighting of the predator in Spanish waters for more than four decades. The five-metre (16.4 ft) shark was tracked for more than an hour by an international conservation team in the Cabrera Archipelago National Park, a reserve six miles off the southern coast of Majorca.  The team from Alnitak, a Spanish conservation project with researchers from several European countries including the United Kingdom, published an image of the shark following the "historic sighting" on Thursday. The organisation said it would be releasing more footage and images later on Friday. Shark sighting Ten researchers, including British woman Georgina Stevens, were on board Alnitak's vessel conducting data collection and monitoring when the shark was sighted, the group said.  While there have been unconfirmed sightings and rumours of great white sharks in Spanish waters over the years, this is believed to be the first confirmed incident since 1976, when a Majorca fisherman caught a specimen measuring more than six metres.  The five-metre (16.4 ft) shark was tracked for more than an hour by an international conservation team in the Cabrera Archipelago National Park Credit: Beat vNi In 2006, a Spanish documentary film said that 27 great whites had been caught by fisherman in the Balearics between 1920 and 1976. But since then, the species had all but disappeared. Alnitak said that the presence of great white sharks in Spanish waters was the subject of a "constant rumour", supported by historic photographs and even local place names in the Balearic Islands and along Mediterranean coastline of mainland Spain.

Eight south Syria towns return to regime control under deals: monitorAt least eight battered rebel-held towns in southern Syria on Saturday returned to regime control under Russian-brokered deals after nearly two weeks of bombardment, a Britain-based monitor said. Since June 19, the Damascus regime has pressed a deadly bombardment campaign in southern Syria in a bid to retake the strategic area bordering Jordan and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. The agreements for the eight towns were reached even as regime air strikes on Saturday pounded other opposition holdouts in the wider southern province of Daraa, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said.
