LUCKNOW, India (AP) — A large row boat taking villagers to a festival capsized in a flooded river in northern India on Thursday, leaving at least three people dead and 16 others missing, police said. A strong wind rocked the boat, which was carrying about 30 people, police officer Mohammed Nisar said. Some passengers were able to swim to safety, he said. Rescuers recovered three bodies. Hopes of finding the missing alive were fading as darkness approached, he said. The villagers were traveling to a nearby village in Banda district of Uttar Pradesh state to celebrate a Hindu festival. The area is about 250 kilometers (160 miles) southwest of Lucknow, the state capital. Heavy rains have caused floods and landslides in northern India during the June-September monsoon season. Boating accidents are common in the country, where many vessels are overcrowded and have inadequate safety equipment. In September 2020, 12 people drowned when a sightseeing boat capsized on the swollen … [Read more...] about Row boat capsizes in Indian river; 3 dead, 16 missing

(CNN) A grim reminder of the catastrophic institutional failures associated with Hurricane Katrina, "Five Days at Memorial" captures the personal toll and terrible choices made under the most adverse of conditions. Working backward from the 45 dead bodies discovered in Memorial Hospital, it's a compelling fact-based look at those five days as well as their aftermath . Indeed, the title notwithstanding, "Five Days" (which devotes each of the opening installments to a different day) actually encompasses eight parts, a metaphor for the way streaming series deal with time if there ever was one. Here, though, the extra chapters necessarily deal with the fallout from what transpired, shifting from the doctors -- forced into choices about leaving patients behind, and horrifyingly, euthanizing them -- to those investigating what happened (played by Michael Gaston and Molly Hager), where the blame lies and the related politics surrounding it. Based on Pulitzer … [Read more...] about ‘Five Days at Memorial’ takes a grim look back at Hurricane Katrina’s tragic toll

Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 11 GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — The Palestinian death toll from last weekend's fighting between Israel and Gaza militants rose to 48 Thursday after an 11-year-old girl and a man died from wounds they suffered during the worst cross-border violence in over a year. Meanwhile, two wounded Gaza children, ages 8 and 14, were fighting for their lives in a Jerusalem hospital. In all, more than 300 Palestinians were wounded over the weekend when Israel struck Islamic Jihad targets across Gaza and the militant group fired hundreds of rockets at Israel. The death of 11-year-old Layan al-Shaer at Mukassed Hospital in an Arab neighborhood of Jerusalem brought to 17 the number of children killed in the fighting. Hani al-Shaer, a relative, said she was wounded in a drone attack during a surprise opening salvo launched by Israel, hours before any … [Read more...] about Death toll from weekend Israel-Gaza fighting rises to 48

0 Community Corner "Rocky," a 4-year-old coyote, has been housed at the River Trail Nature Center since 2018 after being mistaken for a dog. Eric DeGrechie , Patch Staff Posted Reply NORTHBROOK, IL — Ricky Gervais has a long history of being involved with animal rights and advocacy. Earlier this week, the actor and comedian expressed his concerns about the well-being of a coyote living at the River Trail Nature Center in Northbrook. "Rocky," a 4-year-old coyote, has lived by itself at the Cook County forest preserve since 2018, when he was originally mistaken for a dog. Gervais is backing the efforts of In Defense of Animals and the Chicago Alliance for Animals, two animal protection organizations working to get the coyote released from River Trail. "Rocky should not suffer the consequences of human error — it's not his fault that people mistook him for a German Shepard puppy," Gervais said in a statement and on social … [Read more...] about Ricky Gervais Calls On Northbrook Nature Preserve To Release Coyote
