Fred "Curly" Neal, a Harlem Globetrotters icon who played in more than 6,000 games, has died, the team announced Thursday. He was 77. Neal played in 97 countries. On Feb. 15, 2008, Curly became just the fifth Globetrotter to have his jersey number retired, according to the team."Between 1963 and 1985 - before the internet and cable television really existed-it was Curly Neal and the Harlem Globetrotters who first introduced the sport of basketball to millions of people around the world for the first time," the Globetrotters tweeted. "It was Curly's magical ball-handling, shooting, charismatic smile and iconic bald head, in more than 6,000 games in 97 countries, that made them start to play and fall in love with the game."Globetrotters General Manager Jeff Munn called Neal "one of the most genuine human beings the world has ever known."“Curly’s basketball skill was unrivaled by most," Munn said. "His warm heart and huge smile brought joy to families worldwide.”Former player Curley Boo Johnson mourned Neal's death. "The world lost a true ambassador of the game of basketball and outside of Muhammad Ali one of the most recognizable faces on the Planet! Rest In Peace my Brother," he tweeted.This story was published by Aliza Chasan at WPIX. 1266

Fires are raging at a record rate in Brazil's Amazon rainforest, and scientists warn it could strike a devastating blow to the fight against climate change.The fires are burning at the highest rate since the country's space research center, the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), began tracking them in 2013, the center said Tuesday.There have been a total of 72,843 fires in Brazil this year, with more than half in the Amazon region, INPE said. That's more than an 80% increase compared with the same period last year.The Amazon is often referred to as the planet's lungs, producing 20% of the oxygen in the earth's atmosphere.It is considered vital in slowing global warming, and it is also home to uncountable species of fauna and flora. Roughly half the size of the US, it is the largest rainforest on the planet.Dramatic images and videos on social media show giant plumes of smoke rising from the greenery, and lines of fire leaving blackened waste in their wake.The smoke has reached all the way to Sao Paolo, more than 1,700 miles away. 1069

Four physicians -- experts in pediatrics, infectious diseases and health policy -- have a message for White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders: Contrary to what she says, it's not clear that the federal government is doing everything it can to care for children crossing the border.And they'd like to help her understand what the government could do better so more children don't die.When asked Friday about the recent deaths of two migrant children in US custody, Sanders told reporters that it was "an absolutely tragic situation" and that "we are doing everything in our capacity to make sure that when people do come, that they're taken care of so we don't have these types of instances."But the physicians say there are steps the government needs to take before Sanders can truthfully say officials are doing "everything in our capacity" to make sure children don't die."In her mind, she may think they're doing everything possible, but we can tell you, you're not doing everything," said Dr. Colleen Kraft, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics. "Look at the facts. The record shows us that more needs to be done."Dr. Buddy Creech, a pediatric infectious disease specialist, said authorities need to do thorough reviews of the children's deaths before declaring that everything possible is being done to prevent more deaths."In hospitals, when someone has a tragic event, a near miss, a drug error, we don't lead with 'we're doing everything we can.' It's ideal to lead with 'let's make ourselves open to self-criticism to make sure that we're taking care of the people who come to us for help,' " said Creech, associate professor of pediatrics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center."The real tragedy would be to say we're doing everything we can when we're not," he added.Internal reviews of the children's deaths are being conducted within the US Department of Homeland Security.Here are three things the physicians say the government could be doing better.Triage children more effectivelyOver the past several years, the United States has seen a large influx of children coming across the border.Before about 2013, about 90% of migrants apprehended at the border were adult men. In contrast, last month, 59% of apprehended migrants were families or unaccompanied minors, according to the Department of Homeland Security.That means about 1,400 to 1,500 unaccompanied minors or family members are apprehended every day, according to the agency."This has created enormous strain on our resources as we tackle the issue of how to deal with large numbers of kids," said Andrew Meehan, US Customs and Border Protection's assistant commissioner for public affairs.There's also been an uptick in the number of apprehended migrants who are ill, Homeland Security officials said at a briefing last week. They said border officers transport dozens of apprehended migrants to hospitals every day."We are doing all we can to handle this flood as humanely and professionally as possible," an official said.Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen has asked the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to look into the causes of the migrants' illnesses. She also said that children will receive a "more thorough hands-on assessment" as soon as possible after they're apprehended and that the US Department of Defense has been asked to provide additional medical professionals.Taking care of children -- especially such a large number of children -- requires special training and expertise, said Kraft, president of the pediatricians' group."Children are not just little adults; they have a whole physiology all their own," Kraft said.For example, she points out that children, much more than adults, can look fine but actually be quite ill."A child can be running around and playing while their little systems are breaking down," she said. "When they triage these children and they don't have that pediatric oversight and expertise, they're going to miss kids who don't look like they're ill when they really are."Kraft said she was pleased that on Wednesday, Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan reached out to her to ask whether the American Academy of Pediatrics could become involved in giving 4249

Former Vice President Joe Biden responded to criticism Thursday after he called Vice President Mike Pence a "decent guy" during a speech in Omaha, a comment that frustrated some on the left because of Pence's position on LGBTQ rights.Biden's comments about Pence came as he discussed foreign policy and how the international community had reacted to Pence during the vice president's speech at the Munich Security Conference earlier in February."The fact of the matter is it was followed on by a guy who's a decent guy, our vice president, who stood before this group of allies and leaders and said, 'I'm here on behalf of President Trump,' and there was dead silence. Dead silence," Biden recounted Thursday at the Chuck Hagel Forum in Global Leadership at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.The "decent guy" comment prompted a round of criticism on Twitter. 873
