Texas’ border mission grows, but crossings still high
This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 4 AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Following the horror of a human-smuggling attempt that left 53 people dead, Republican Gov. Greg Abbott ordered state troopers to inspect more trucks — again expanding a border security mission that has cost billions, given the National Guard arrest powers and bused migrants to Washington, D.C. What Abbott’s get-tough plans haven’t done in the year since he began rolling them out is curb the number of people crossing the border. Along the border in Texas, where officials say Monday’s fatal tractor-trailer journey began, U.S. authorities stopped migrants from crossing illegally 523,000 times between January and May, up from 417,000 over the same span a year ago. It reflects how, across the nation’s entire southern border, crossings are at or near the highest in about two decades. The deadliest smuggling attempt in U.S. history illustrated the limitations … [Read more...] about Texas’ border mission grows, but crossings still high
She died in a Manhattan penthouse but was buried on an island for the poor
This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 5 NEW YORK - Valerie Griffith's final journey began on a battered ferry, a floating hearse bound for a most unusual island. Nobody lives on Hart Island, a scruffy one-mile slice of land in Long Island Sound that New York's tabloids call "Forgotten Island," "Haunted Island" and "Isle of Tears." For 150 years, it's been known as the place where the city buries its penniless - not art collectors like Griffith. But on Dec. 7, 2020, Griffith's coffin arrived at Hart Island's dock and was loaded onto a truck for a quick drive to a trench the size of a tennis court. There, on a cold and wet morning, gravediggers lowered her simple wooden coffin into the muddy ground. No relative or friend was present and there was no mention of her remarkable life: how the English-born Griffith had helped the U.S. military during World War II, exposed antisemitism in the United States and … [Read more...] about She died in a Manhattan penthouse but was buried on an island for the poor
Stuck bags add to tangles at Paris airports amid travel boom
This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 5 Airlines worked Saturday to deliver luggage to passengers around the world after a technical breakdown left at least 1,500 bags stuck at Paris’ Charles de Gaulle airport, the latest of several tangles hitting travelers this summer. The airport’s baggage sorting system had a technical malfunction Friday that caused 15 flights to depart without luggage, leaving about 1,500 bags on the ground, according to the airport operating company. The airport handled about 1,300 flights overall Friday, the operator said. Union activists said many more passengers flew without their bags, apparently because of knock-on effects from the original breakdown. It came as airport workers are on strike at French airports to demand more hiring and more pay to keep up with high global inflation. Because of the strike, aviation authorities canceled 17% of flights out of the Paris airports … [Read more...] about Stuck bags add to tangles at Paris airports amid travel boom

A vibrant crowd of hundreds of thousands turned out to either take part in or watch the festivities, forming a spectacle of rainbow flags, glitter and sequins.

Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 3 BOISE, Idaho (AP) — U.S. officials are testing a new wildfire retardant after two decades of buying millions of gallons annually from one supplier, but watchdogs say the expensive strategy is overly fixated on aerial attacks at the expense of hiring more fire-line digging ground crews. The Forest Service used more than 50 million gallons (190 million liters) of retardant for the first time in 2020 as increasingly destructive wildfires plague the West. It exceeded 50 million gallons again last year to fight some of the largest and longest-duration wildfires in history in California and other states. The fire retardant cost those two years reached nearly $200 million. Over the previous 10 years, the agency used 30 million gallons (115 million liters) annually. “No two wildfires are the same, and thus it’s critical for fire managers to have different tools available to them for … [Read more...] about US testing new fire retardant, critics push other methods
