“Something that hasn’t hit the shores of this country but that is not maybe too far away is the potential of a religious fundamentalist attack,” said Mr O’Brien.
“Our members are going to be the first at the scene in relation to any such attacks. We have no less lethal form of protection.
“We have the asp baton, we have pepper spray and then we have the gun – we have nothing in between,” he continued.

300 rescued in Sambisa forrest
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-32506942
300 women were rescued from the forest, and that wasn't even including the group of abducted girls they were originally searching from. Every time I read something like this it blows my mind that it is not on the news. I realize it's thousands of miles away, but that's no excuse to ignore this.

The horrors of the sea
http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-32433547
"The journey across the sea to Europe is taken by a lot of people in search of a better life. At any moment boats can capsize, they can run out of gas, the motor can break down - and they're vulnerable to the cold weather. "
This is so sad, and the images are disturbing but I think it's important to be aware of things such as this that are happening around the world.

Africa only contains 2% of the world's vehicles, but is responsible for 16% of the traffic accidents. That is a shocking statistic. It is possibly because of the lack of education in Africa.

Drug smugglers were executed in Indonesia. Among those that were killed were Nigerian nationals, a Brazilian, Australian, and an Indonesian. However, the execution of a ninth convict, a woman from the Philippines, was postponed at the last minute. She was given a chance to testify which her mother described as a miracle.

Storm in India
http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/unseasonal-rainstorm-kills-30-eastern-india-30493926
This tragedy makes me very thankful of the climate and fortunate situation I am in. It's a great thing to live in the Pacific Northwest where there aren't many weather-disasters to be concerned about. It's shocking to me that something this drastic can happen, and not be known around the world. Searching this is the first I have heard of this storm.
