A volcanic island in New Zealand erupted Monday in a tower of ash and steam while dozens of tourists were exploring the moon-like surface, killing five people and leaving many more missing.Police said the site was still too dangerous hours later for rescuers to search for the missing.Police Deputy Commissioner John Tims said the number of missing was in the double digits but he couldn’t confirm an exact number. He said there were fewer than 50 people on the island when it erupted and 23 had been taken off, including the five dead.Tims said experts had told them the island remained unstable but search and rescue teams wanted to get back as quickly as they could. He said there had been no contact with any of those who were missing.He said both New Zealanders and overseas tourists were among those who were dead, missing or injured. He said most of the 18 who survived were injured and some had suffered severe burns.Some of those involved were tourists from the Royal Caribbean International cruise ship Ovation of the Seas.“A number of our guests were touring the island today,” the company said. “We will offer all possible assistance to our guests and local authorities. Please keep all those affected in your prayers.”The cruise ship, which had left from Sydney last week, was scheduled to sail to the capital Wellington on Monday night but the company said it would instead remain in the Tauranga port overnight until it learned more on the situation.“My god,” wrote Michael Schade on Twitter as he posted video of the eruption. “My family and I had gotten off it 20 minutes before, were waiting at our boat about to leave when we saw it. Boat ride home tending to people our boat rescued was indescribable.”His video showed a wall of ash and steam around the island and a helicopter badly damaged and covered in ash. He said one woman was badly injured but seemed “strong” by the end.White Island sits about 50 kilometers (30 miles) offshore from mainland New Zealand. Already people are questioning why tourists were still able to visit the island after scientists recently noted an uptick in volcanic activity.Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern traveled to the region late Monday. She said the incident was “very significant.”“All our thoughts are with those affected,” she said.Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said he’d offered Ardern his support.“Australians have been caught up in this terrible event and we are working to determine their wellbeing,” Morrison wrote on Twitter.Brad Scott, a volcanologist with research group GNS Science, said the eruption sent a plume of steam and ash about 12,000 feet (3,660 meters) into the air. He said it had also affected the whole of the White Island crater floor.The GeoNet agency, which monitors volcanoes and earthquakes in New Zealand, raised the alert level on White Island from one to two on Nov. 18, noting an increase in the amount of sulfur dioxide gas, which originates from magma deep in the volcano. It also said at the time that over the previous weeks, the volcanic tremor had increased from weak to moderate strength.Scott said the alert level was often raised and then later dropped again without any eruption. He said there hadn’t been any major incidents with tourists visiting the island in the past, although there had been some close calls.Scott said it was not for him to say whether the island was safe enough to host tourists immediately before Monday’s eruption.Ardern said the focus remained on the search and rescue mission for now and questions about whether tourists should be visiting would be addressed later.GeoNet at first raised its alert level to four, on a scale where five represents a major eruption. It later dropped the alert level back down to three. Scott said that was because the eruption wasn’t sustained beyond the initial blast.“In the scheme of things, for volcanic eruptions, it is not large,” said Ken Gledhill from GeoNet. “But if you were close to that, it is not good.”White Island is northeast of the town of Tauranga on North Island, one of New Zealand’s two main islands. Experts say it’s New Zealand’s most active cone volcano and about 70% of the volcano lies under the sea.Twelve people were killed on the island in 1914 when it was being mined for sulfur. Part of a crater wall collapsed and a landslide destroyed the miners’ village and the mine itself.The remains of buildings from another mining enterprise in the 1920s are now a tourist attraction, according to GeoNet. The island became a private scenic reserve in 1953, and daily tours allow more than 10,000 people to visit the volcano every year.The island is also known by the indigenous Maori name Whakaari. 4704

A woman who says she was raped at age 15 by Jeffrey Epstein is suing his estate, his alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell and three unnamed defendants, saying they conspired to maintain and conceal a sex trafficking ring.The accuser, Jennifer Araoz, told reporters Wednesday that Epstein, who died Saturday in prison by suicide, and his "network of enablers" stole her youth, identity, innocence and self-worth."While I am angry that Mr. Epstein's death means he will never personally answer to me in a court of law, my resolve to pursue justice is only strengthened," she said. "My story and my experiences -- those who enabled and facilitated his criminal behavior-- none of that is diminished or immunized simply because he apparently chose to take his own life."The lawsuit comes on the first day of a one-year period when any adult survivors of child sexual abuse can sue an abuser or a negligent institution in New York state court, no matter how long ago the abuse took place. The one-year window was created as part of a law signed in February."Fortunately, New York's Child Victims Act now affords survivors like me legal recourse," Araoz said. "Today, I am exercising my rights under that law. Today, I am starting to reclaim my power."Araoz alleges Epstein repeatedly committed sexual assault and battery against her when she was 14 and 15 years old and that he forcibly raped her. Araoz has not interacted with Maxwell, her attorneys said, but the lawsuit alleges Maxwell conspired to maintain and conceal the sex trafficking ring.Three Jane Does who also allegedly participated in the scheme are not named in the suit, which refers to them as "recruiter," "secretary," and "maid."Araoz alleges that all the defendants "have intentionally inflicted emotional distress" upon her, as well as "committed negligent infliction of emotional distress," causing her to suffer "extreme emotional injuries."Attorneys for Epstein and Maxwell did not respond immediately Wednesday to requests for comment about Araoz's suit. Maxwell and her representatives previously have denied she engaged in sexual abuse or sex trafficking. Epstein had pleaded not guilty to federal charges of conspiracy and sex trafficking of minors.Araoz came forward to authorities after the criminal charges were filed, her attorneys said Wednesday. She had been fully cooperating with federal prosecutors before Epstein's death and has agreed to cooperate in their investigation of his potential accomplices, they said.The lawsuit, provided to CNN by Araoz's attorneys, seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial. A draft version of the complaint was delivered to Epstein while he was in prison, about three weeks before his death.Araoz previously shed her anonymity and spoke out last month about Epstein's abuse in an interview with NBC's "Today" show.What the lawsuit statesCiting court records, Araoz's lawsuit alleges Maxwell -- the British socialite and Epstein's alleged madam -- "participated with and assisted Epstein in maintaining and protecting his sex trafficking ring, ensuring that approximately three girls a day were made available to him for his sexual pleasure."It also alleges she provided "organizational support to Epstein's sex trafficking ring, identifying and hiring the recruiters of underage girls" and "scheduling appointments with these underage girls" for Epstein's "sexual pleasure," as well as "intimidating potential witnesses to Epstein's sex trafficking operation."It alleges Maxwell "identified and hired" the "Recruiter" on Epstein's behalf to procure underage girls from the performing arts school Araoz attended near Epstein's lavish Manhattan apartment.Araoz began visiting Epstein's apartment in 2001 with the "recruiter," and at the end of the visits, the "secretary" was directed to give her 0 to purportedly "help" her out, the lawsuit states.After about a month of making the visits with the recruiter, "upon information and belief, Defendant Maxwell, began contacting" Araoz directly and "scheduling arrangements for her to visit Epstein's home alone."The suit details the alleged encounters, which Araoz has detailed to media. Epstein told her during one of her first visits alone to his Manhattan apartment, "you really should be a model," "I'll bet your body is incredible," and "in order to help you with your modeling career, I will need to see your body," the suit states.It alleges Epstein complimented her repeatedly about her breasts and instructed her to take off her top, "then immediately started feeling" her breasts and rubbing her nude shoulders.He asked her to give him a massage, which she did, and afterward he turned over, removed his towel and began masturbating, the suit states.Araoz felt "intimidated, so she did as she was told," the suit says.Owing to the money Epstein was giving Araoz, he said, "I take care of you, you take care of me," the suit states. He would tell her not to tell anyone about what occurred during the home visits, which routinely included massages, the suit states.After that, Epstein would call Araoz directly, and the sexual encounters became more aggressive and escalated, the suit states. The encounters would continue on a "weekly basis" and a "maid" would leave 0 in cash in a drawer in the massage room.During one encounter, Epstein held Araoz tightly and forcibly raped her, the lawsuit states. After that "brutal rape," Araoz never returned to the apartment, ignored Epstein's calls and transferred schools to avoid him, the suit states. 5566

A wedding is supposed to be the most beautiful day in a couple's life. But for thousands of couples this year, it's become a nightmare, because they have to cancel their reception, and couples are finding they can't get a refund due to the contract they signed months ago with their reception venue.Kristina Finley's dream wedding was scheduled for May 30, until COVID-19 and her governor changed her plans.Despite a state shutdown of big events, her mother, Becky Finley, said her daughter can't get her money back from her venue."She asked for a refund, and they said actually my daughter owed them the second half of the payment," Finley said.The wedding venue still has their ,500 deposit, half the total cost of the ,000 wedding and reception, the family said.It offered new dates next year, but Finley's daughter does not want to wait, and instead she has selected a small church wedding and backyard party for the original date."My daughter picked May 30, 2020. All the invitations, the pre-engagement announcements, everything had that date on it," Finley said. "And she said, 'I've been waiting a year for this, and I'm not going to reschedule.'"Rules vary by venueWhen it comes to weddings and other events, every event center has different rules.Some will give brides and grooms a refund if there is no other option, owner Drew Hester said.Drew Hester, owner of one hall, said that unlike many other halls, he has given full refunds to several brides, and he took the financial hit. "I just believe in karma. I believe in good," he said. "The emotional loss for them has been awful. You work with these brides for a year, and now they are devastated. And on top off that I am not going to say, 'You lost ,500, sorry.'"But many wedding contracts do not allow refunds; only credits toward a future date.What you can doForbes Magazine said many brides and grooms are facing thousands of dollars in losses this year due to canceled weddings. It suggests people:Request a refund as soon as possible; do not wait for the date to approach.Ask if you can get a discount for a smaller gathering, if they are still open.If they refuse a refund or discount, dispute the charge through your credit card if you paid the deposit that way.File a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.If all else fails, contact a lawyer, who for a few hundred dollars can examine the contract and send a letter to the center explaining that since this is an "act of god," the contract should be null and void.Finley hopes to get something back, and said her daughter is just heartbroken having to cancel her dream reception."It's what every little girl dreams of, and it just fell apart," she said,One other option: Some reception centers have gardens where you can move everything outdoors, and where, if allowed by local laws, you can still have that dream wedding.________________________Don't Waste Your Money" is a registered trademark of Scripps Media, Inc.

A senior U.S. official says the United States and the Taliban have reached a truce agreement that will take effect “very soon” and could lead to withdrawals of American troops from Afghanistan. The official said Friday the agreement for a seven-day “reduction in violence” to be followed by the start of all-Afghan peace talks within 10 days is “very specific” and covers the entire country including Afghan forces. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the official wasn't authorized to discuss details ahead of an official announcement. The developments come as U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary Mark Esper met Friday in Munich with Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani. 723
