A non-profit in California has developed a way to capture poachers who snatch sea turtle eggs - building lookalike eggs with GPS trackers constructed inside them.According to research published Monday in the journal Current Biology, the InvestEGGator is a 3D-printed life-like turtle egg that can be tracked as far away as 137 kilometers (85 miles)."It replicates the appearance, weight, and feel of a real turtle egg. It is easily deployed at low risk to investigators, can be programmed and monitored remotely using web-based and smartphone applications, and is a low cost, allowing for deployment of many units at once," said the Ventura-based Paso Pacífico, the non-profit that developed the eggs.The decoy eggs are placed in real nests alongside real eggs, which are monitored and mapped every time they are moved, the non-profit said.The research showed that the decoy eggs provide a signal once every hour."Using data provided by the decoys, we identified trafficking routes and on two occasions properties of potential interest to law enforcement," researchers said in the journal. "Decoys also yielded anecdotal information, furthering our understanding of trafficking routes." 1194

A new art installation in Washington, D.C. is aiming to put the COVID-19 pandemic in a new perspective.WTOP-TV in Washington reports that on Friday, artist Suzanne Brennan Firstenberg was joined by the friends and family of coronavirus victims to set up her newest installation, "In America: How Could This Happen…"The installation, located on the D.C. Armory field near RFK Stadium, features more than 200,000 white flags — each one representing an America who has been killed by COVID-19.Community members are invited to continue planting the flags through Friday, Nov. 6. By the project's conclusion, Firstenberg hopes to plant more than 240,000 flags. She also invites volunteers to write the names of loved ones who have been killed by the disease on the flags."This is public participatory art," Firstenberg told NPR. "I want the community to come plant flags right alongside me. I want them to realize the importance of individual lives."According to NPR, Firstenberg has been searching for a place to display her project since August. She initially planned to use small American flags, but she ran into roadblocks."I would have had to source them from China, and that didn't really make sense to me," Firstenberg told NPR.White flags are typically used to represent surrender — which would be poignant given White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows' weekend comments claiming the Trump administration isn't going to control the pandemic. But according to Firstenberg, the white flags are meant to represent innocence."I know how valuable each life is, because I've had the opportunity — the honor — to be with people at a very difficult time in their lives, as they're saying goodbye," Firstenberg told NPR.As of early Tuesday afternoon, Johns Hopkins reports that more than 225,000 Americans had died of COVID-19. 1829

A New York company is having some fun with Gov. Andrew Cuomo's new statewide mandate that limits home gatherings to 10 people during the COVID-19 pandemic.ZoomBuffalo.com Owner Rory Allen has created "The 11th Guest" window sticker. For .26, you can have a likeness of the governor keeping an eye on the holiday festivities in your home."For anyone that wants to make sure their family only has the proper amount of guest this Thanksgiving" the site says. The idea is all in good fun and was not created to attack the governor, Allen said.The no-damage sticker, which measures 7.25" by 5.8," ships in three days. You can also purchase three for .20.The governor's 10-person-maximum order has been met with criticism, including from Erie County Sheriff Tim Howard, who said last week his deputies would not break up Thanksgiving dinners in private homes."This national holiday has created longstanding family traditions that are at the heart of America, and these traditions should not be stopped or interrupted by Governor Cuomo's mandates," Howard said in a statement.Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul has said the intent of the mandate is not to have law enforcement enter homes during the holidays, but rather urge New Yorkers to use common sense to protect the health of themselves and their loved ones.This story was originally published by staff at WKBW. 1373

A North County resident claims her neighbor, a local politician, is using his power to target her.She said Oceanside Deputy Mayor Chuck Lowery is getting preferential treatment when he files a code complaint because of his position at the city.Team 10 discovered Lowery has a well-documented history of filing complaints and turned up emails he sent voicing his concerns about her short-term rental property.“I don't believe that it's right that the deputy mayor would utilize his political position to contact other departments and the head of those departments to start a harassment campaign,” said Alexandra McIntosh.McIntosh purchased her home back in 2012 as part of her retirement plan.Shortly after she bought it, she turned the property into full-time, short-term vacation rental.She said the income brought by the rental offsets the house payments and helps the city of Oceanside make money.“It has been fully booked since early March,” she said.McIntosh told 10News she stays at the property when it isn’t booked and plans to move in after she retires.To help with storage, McIntosh said she put a shed up in the backyard."I paid to have them custom make this to conform with the City of Oceanside,” she said. “It was something that would go along with my house.”According to the City of Oceanside’s website, the shed could be no larger than 120 square feet, or it needed a permit.McIntosh said she called to verify that is the case. However, after it went up, there was a complaint.Complaint records from the city state, “CBC 105.1 Permits Required - Submit plans/building permit application to Building Division for review. If any work requiring a permit is in progress, it must immediately cease until a valid building permit is issued.”There were also questions whether or not McIntosh was using the shed as an extra room, something she denied. For a period of time, it was posted on Airbnb as a third room.“I’m not using it as a habitable space,” she said.After a July visit to the property, a representative from the code department determined the shed violates the city's zoning ordinance and will need to be brought into compliance.McIntosh disagrees with the decision telling Team 10 that’s not what someone in the department initially told her. She plans to fight that decision. According to documents provided by the City of Oceanside, the person who complained was listed as Chuck Lowery.McIntosh said Lowery is one of her neighbors.City records show it’s the not first time Lowery has been listed as the complainant on a city code violation complaint.Team 10 uncovered emails from March 2017 when Lowery had a grievance with barking dogs in his neighborhood.The email chain shows he sent an email to the Oceanside city manager writing in part, “Can the City notify the OWNERS [sic] that they’re renting these places to people who are up at all hours whenever they want (hey, they’re on vacation) AND they leave their dogs barking, untended, for days on end?The neighbor sent me an email again today about the barking dog. I was here and I heard it too. The addresses of the two houses with short-term renters and dogs are XX and XX. It’s NOT worth the TOT tax but I sure hope these two people get noise complaints. I can get the other neighbors to sign at least one.”For context TOT means Transient Occupancy Tax, a tax collected by the city on short-term rentals. All hotels and vacation rentals in the City of Oceanside pay an assessment of 1.5 percent of their room rental revenue.The email chain shows the city manager offered to send the notice out herself writing in part, “I’m prepared to do it but am unsure of who does what between code and OPD.” The emails show she eventually has the code department do it.A code department manager responded in an email: "I’m never too busy for the City Manager. Your concerns are first priority. They will go out today.”Emails obtained by Team 10 show a few days after complaining about the dogs, Lowery wrote about another neighbor’s property calling their tenants “disgusting.”This time from a city email account the deputy mayor requests that "the letter from Code to the owners and agent at XX be ramped up and that their permit for vacation party rentals be denied or revoked or whatever."A day later an Oceanside employee writes to the code manager: “This is the second complaint from Councilmember Lowery. The City Manager is interested in creating a case file whereby actions escalate and could lead to the revocation of the short-term rental registration.” Team 10 discovered emails Lowery sent about possible code issues dating back to 2016.Deputy Mayor Lowery denied all on-camera interview requests.His aide, Don Greene, said the deputy mayor would only answer questions through email and sent over this written statement: 4811
