Authorities say a man has been struck by a float and killed by a Mardi Gras float during a parade in New Orleans. It was the second death in days involving a parade float and cast a pall over the Carnival festivities.

The New Orleans mayor said the city is grieving anew after a woman was killed on a parade route Wednesday. The man's name wasn't immediately released. 536

ANGOLA, Ind. – China is the number one country for international adoption. But right now, more than 150 million people there are under a coronavirus lockdown, flights grounded, travel advisories in place. It has left thousands of orphan children and adoptive families in limbo. Last summer, Robin and Walt Huston decided they wanted to share their lake house home with a child in need.“We just decided to add to our family,” said Robin Huston. “We think we have enough to give to another child.”The Hustons are pre-approved to adopt and have been working with an international agency that specializes in placing children with hearing loss or deafness.Walt Huston’s parents and grandparents were deaf. “My first language was sign language,” said Walt. “And then I met Robin. She knew sign and then we both decided we wanted a deaf child.”The child they selected is 13-year-old Zhou Ji. Born hearing impaired, he’s waited his entire life for someone to choose him. “[They] showed us some pictures of him and our hearts just melted,” said Walt. “And we wanted him from that point on.”But the eruption of the coronavirus has brought dozens of adoptions like theirs to a crushing halt. Zhou Ji is living in an orphanage under lockdown in Hubei province, the epicenter of the Wuhan virus outbreak. “Yes. It’s very scary,” said the Hustons.Pamela Neail Thomas is the china program director for Hand-in-Hand International Adoptions and is handling the Hustons’ case. “The children in the orphanages are being kept inside the compounds and their caregivers are being asked to stay with them,” said Thomas. “So, no one is leaving.” Along with being paralyzed by the outbreak, the Hustons are also racing against time. “He is 13. He's going to be 14 in October,” said Robin. “So, he will be aging out.”If that happens, there is very little if any recourse.“If he gets to his 14th birthday he become ineligible for adoption under Chinese law,” explained Thomas.The Indiana couple says they remain hopeful the virus will be contained before it’s too late. “I just hope that this virus has subsided enough that we're able to travel and stay healthy and that he stays healthy.” 2174

Attorneys for Michelle Carter filed an appeal of her conviction with the United States Supreme Court Monday.In the filing, Carter's attorneys urged the Supreme Court to consider, "the questions whether Carter's conviction for involuntary manslaughter violated the U.S. Constitution."Carter was found guilty in 2017 and sentenced to 15 months in a Massachusetts jail for her part in the death of her boyfriend, 18-year-old Conrad Roy III, who killed himself in his car in Fairhaven, Massachusetts in 2014.After his death, investigators discovered Roy had texted Carter as he contemplated and attempted suicide, with her encouraging him to do it when he had doubts."I thought you wanted to do this. The time is right and you're ready, you just need to do it! You can't keep living this way," one of dozens of texts from Carter to Roy reads.Massachusetts highest court upheld her conviction following an appeal in February.Her attorneys argued in Monday's filing that her freedom of speech may have been violated and should be protected under the constitution."Michelle Carter did not cause Conrad Roy's tragic death and should not be held criminally responsible for his suicide," said attorney Daniel Marx of Fick & Marx LLP. "This petition focuses on just two of the many flaws in the case against her that raise important federal constitutional issues for the U.S. Supreme Court to decide.""As Justice Gorsuch ruled in a recent case, 'A vague law is no law at all,'" added Marx's partner, William Fick. "Ms. Carter's conviction should not stand." 1563

Black Friday is more than two months away. But in a tight labor market, America's retailers and delivery giants are starting to look for seasonal help to handle the holiday shopping rush.Target said Tuesday that it would hire more than 130,000 temporary workers for its stores and distribution centers. Last year, Target hired about 120,000 workers for the holidays. More than 40% of those employees stayed on with Target past the holiday season, according to the company.UPS also announced plans Monday to hire around 100,000 holiday workers, roughly the same number as last year. And Amazon said it would announce its holiday hiring plans in the coming weeks. Amazon hired around 100,000 seasonal workers a year ago.As companies have done in past years, they are relying on higher hourly wages and perks to attract workers. Target will pay an hour to seasonal workers for the first time and offer them discounts at stores. UPS will offer students the opportunity to earn ,300 for college expenses.Finding workers to staff stores and delivery hubs could be difficult. America's unemployment rate remains below 4%.Stores are having trouble filling job vacancies, despite a series of mass closures that have resulted in employment in retail 1258

As flames burn through Brazil's rainforest, its inhabitants are at risk of losing their homes. The fires pose a serious threat to the Amazon's delicate balance of ecosystems, putting pressure on already endangered species of animals.Expect a significant loss of wildlife, says Roberto Troya, Vice President for Latin America and the Caribbean at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). The Amazon contains one in 10 known species on earth, including at least 40,000 plant species and more than 400 mammal, 300 reptile, 400 amphibian and 3,000 freshwater fish species, 571
