...Healthy reefs live symbiotically with algae, which take shelter inside the coral and, in return, pass nutrients to their host. When waters reach an uncomfortably high temperature, coral becomes stressed and kicks the algae out; this turns the coral white and essentially starves it to death. Some local reef watchers are warning that their coral is bleaching nearly as much as it did in 1998, when El Niño-warmed waters killed 15% of the world's reefs...

India's rebound in the global economy is multifaceted, but what inspires most is its ability to reach into a beleaguered past and a struggling present to continuously build a dream.

...another widespread scourge: in July, coral reefs in the South China Sea and around the Florida Keys and Caribbean started to bleach - a result of warming waters. Healthy reefs live symbiotically with algae, which takes shelter inside the coral and, in return, passes nutrients to its host. When waters reach an uncomfortably high temperature, coral gets stressed and kicks the algae out, which turns the coral white and essentially starves it to death. Local reef watchers have contacted the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) from the northern Philippines to southern Japan, some warning that their coral is bleaching...

...attempts to reach the trapped miners were halted immediately, and Utah Governor John Huntsman urged that they be called off completely. It's not his decision - that's in the hands of the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) - but it may be the only choice. When the original disaster happened 11 days ago, the six original miners were caught some 2,000 ft. from the entrance. That pretty much ensured that it would take a long time to reach them: rescuers essentially have to re-excavate the entire entrance tunnel, now filled with rubble - and do it with...
