The United States and Russian navies are at odds over an apparent near collision in the Pacific Friday with each side blaming the other.The US and Russian warships came somewhere between 50 feet and 165 feet of each other, according to the two opposing reports, with both sides alleging their ships were forced to perform emergency maneuvers to avoid a collision.This latest incident comes just days after the US Navy accused Russia of 448

The Trump administration on Tuesday announced it is stopping imports of clothing, gold, diamonds and other items believed to have been produced with forced labor by companies based in Brazil, China and Malaysia as well as some gold mined in eastern Congo and diamonds from a region in Zimbabwe.An official at U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Brenda Smith, said her agency issued orders to immediately detain the goods at U.S. ports of entry for further investigation. The move comes amid a wide-ranging trade dispute between the U.S. and China, which has led to new tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of goods.Smith says the “message here is that one of the ways the U.S. and China can collaborate together is to ensure that forced labor is not used.”She said the companies can re-export the detained shipments or submit information to show they’re legal.The companies sanctioned are Bonechar Carv?o Ativado Do Brasil Ltda; Hetian Taida Apparel Co., Ltd. in Xinjiang, China and WRP Asia Pacific Sdn. Bhd. in Malaysia. The action also covers gold mined at small artisan mines in eastern Congo and rough diamonds from the Marange diamond fields in Zimbabwe.Zimbabwe’s government in a statement called the U.S. decision “a blatant and shameless lie.” The Marange region was in the spotlight a decade ago over alleged army killings of artisanal miners and forced labor. The fields are now commercially mined. 1434

This week's series of earthquakes served as a reminder that the United States' earthquake risk extends far beyond the Pacific Coast. On Tuesday, Puerto Rico was rocked by a 6.4 magnitude earthquake. The earthquake knocked out power to most of the island, killing at least one. Also in recent days, minor earthquakes were felt in Tennessee and Texas. While there have been dozens of earthquakes with a 4.5 magnitude or higher throughout the United States in recent years, the eastern United States see relatively fewer. Only four earthquakes of 4.5 magnitude or greater in the last four years have impacted the eastern United States. But the issue is not the quantity of earthquakes in the eastern United States, but the impact. The USGS puts out a hazard map that shows the earthquake risk nationwide. The map shows areas such as the Pacific Coast and parts of Alaska and Hawaii with a high risk of peak ground accelerations. It turns out that areas of Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Illinois and South Carolina.USGS scientist David Schwartz agrees that the Pacific Northwest all the way to Charleston, S.C., practically every region of the United States, has a risk of feeling a devastating earthquake."The nature of the crust changes as you go from east to west. The Central and Eastern US, the crust is really old, it is older it is colder, it is denser, than the crust in the west which is younger,” Schwartz said. “It’s broken up by many faults and warmer. These different crusts transmit seismic waves differently.”And this difference in geology means that a strong earthquake in the Eastern United States could cause damage over an extensive area.Although the Eastern United States has not had many major earthquakes in the last century, two of the most powerful quakes in American history have happened east of the Rockies. The magnitude 5.8 earthquake that caused damage to the Washington Monument in 2011 is only a minor example of the kind of earthquakes the Eastern United States could see.In 1811 and 1812, a series of earthquakes struck the Mississippi River valley along the New Madrid fault. The strongest of the quakes was a possible magnitude 7.8. The quake was felt across much of the Eastern United States.In 1866, a magnitude 7.0 rattled Charleston, S.C.“A repeat of any of those earthquakes would be extremely damaging, because the housing stock in the Central and Eastern U.S. has not been designed for earthquakes,” Schwartz said.According to a survey funded by the U.S. Army, a magnitude 7.7 earthquake located along the New Madrid fault could cause 85,900 deaths and 8 billion in damage. By comparison, Hurricane Katrina caused roughly 1,500 deaths and 0 billion in damage.What to do during an earthquakeDROP to the ground (before the earthquake drops you!),Take COVER by getting under a sturdy desk or table, andHOLD ON to it until the shaking stops. 2906

The Trump administration is headed for a budget clash with Congress, with calls for deep domestic spending cuts that lawmakers are likely to ignore as the nation's debt reaches record levels.On Monday, President Donald Trump is set to deliver his first budget roadmap under a divided government with Speaker Nancy Pelosi at the helm of a Democratic-controlled House, and he is expected to face fierce resistance to severe proposed cuts on education, health and environmental protections.The White House is proposing a 5% cut across federal agencies, except for defense spending, as part of its budget plan for fiscal year 2020, which begins on October 1. The proposed cuts come just as Congress will need to decide -- yet again this year -- whether to lift spending caps put into place by law in 2011.A White House official confirms Trump will ask for .6 billion for a border wall, and an additional .6 billion in military construction funds to pay back monies that the administration hopes will be spent this year that the President redirected by executive authority.Congress holds the purse strings of what the government is willing to spend, and Democrats demonstrated their ability to stay unified during the partial government shutdown.House Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, said at a hearing last week that she would fight to ensure robust funding for critical programs overseen by the committee, including reversing steps by the administration to weaken the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau."The Trump administration has also consistently put forth budget proposals that make massive cuts to programs that protect the nation's most vulnerable families," Waters said.Trump has previously proposed deep spending cuts on domestic programs as well as entitlement programs like Medicare and Social Security every year of his presidency, and each time Congress has ignored them.The President's proposal, however, may offer clues about the President's desire to get funding for a border wall and whether he will earmark money to repair the nation's roads and bridges as part of an infrastructure deal.The White House official notes that the forthcoming request for wall funding is different than in previous years when the White House asked for wall money from just one funding source: the Department of Homeland Security (more specifically, CBP). This year, the White House will ask for billion from Customs and Border Protection, but will also request .6 billion in military construction funds from the Pentagon.In addition, the budget contains a request for another .6 billion in military construction funds -- but these would be used to "backfill" what the administration hopes to spend this year as a result of the emergency declaration. In other words, the White House is requesting money to pay back the funds that Trump redirected with executive authority, and officials are not counting that sum in the topline number they say they're requesting for the wall (at least .6 billion).The amount of the wall request was 3089

Tourists love to visit the National Mall Tidal Basin in Washington, DC, but few know that the National Park Service site is threatened by rising sea levels and outdated infrastructure.Visitors to Nashville's Music Row may not realize that many historic buildings where hits were produced are being demolished in favor of new development.And sacred artifacts -- some dating back 8,000 years -- near Bears Ears and Canyons of the Ancients national monuments in Southeast Utah are being threatened by oil and gas extraction.Although they're known for their historic significance, these spots are all in danger, according to 633
