Obama to vastly expand Pacific Ocean sanctuaries

President Obama will announce ​his intent Tuesday to make a broad swath of the central Pacific Ocean off-limits to fishing, energy exploration and other activities, according to senior White House officials.

The proposal, slated to go into effect later this year after a comment period, could create the world’s largest marine sanctuary and double the area of ocean globally that is fully protected.

Tuesday night, the westbound off-ramp will be closed. Wednesday night, the westbound on-ramp and eastbound off-ramp will be closed. And Thursday night, the eastbound on-ramp will be closed.

RAIN in the Wilderness

PORTLAND -- Father's Day morning, a new Vancouver dad is flying out for deployment to Afghanistan, and he's leaving his twin boys behind.
Landon and Brody Dressler were born 13 weeks early, at just over two pounds each. They're being cared for at Doernbecher Children's Hospital.
They're mono-mono identical twins. It's a very rare and high-risk pregnancy where the babies share the same amniotic sac and placenta, with no barrier between them.
Now, they spend most of their time in incubators in the neo-natal intensive care unit.
"It's like watching your babies in an isolated box, and when it looks like they're in pain, you can't do anything about it," says dad Josh Dressler. "You can only stick your hands in there, and sometimes you can't even hold them because of what's going on operation-wise." 　
Sarah and Josh Dressler have been acting as "kangaroo parents."

 The Kiwi Queen

Different island, different personnel but an all-too-familiar sense of deja vu. From England’s perspective another chance to beat the All Blacks has gone and another frustrating pile of ifs and maybes cannot mask the painful truth. With the third Test in Hamilton still to play, the series and the Hillary Shield are already in Kiwi hands, precisely the scenario Stuart Lancaster and his players travelled 12,000 miles to avoid.
In many ways, this will be harder to take than their Eden Park near-miss. With his side leading 10-3 and half-time fast approaching, Manu Tuilagi embarked on a 75-metre solo gallop towards the New Zealand line that could easily have resulted in a converted try and a 17-3 interval advantage from which the All Blacks would have struggled to escape.
Supporters of both sides reckoned without the extraordinary defensive work of Ben Smith, who somehow tracked down Tuilagi, nicked the ball back and launched the counterattack that resulted in a relieving New Zealand penalty, effectively the game’s crucial moment. By the time England finally recaptured some momentum with a pair of consolatory tries in the final quarter, it was too late. Once again they had lost a contest they could have closed out with a touch more composure.
They were particularly guilty of overplaying their hand either side of half-time, allowing themselves to be sucked into a whirlwind, muscular game of hide and seek with opponents who simply adore a broken field. Geoff Parling had another big game in the second-row and Chris Robshaw did everything in his power to repair the damage but, ultimately, over-enthusiastic errors and turnovers, as much as All Black magic, killed England.
