9+ hour, 14+ min ago (256+ words) Malaysia's transport ministry said Wednesday that the deep-sea hunt for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 will resume Dec. 30, renewing hopes of finally locating the jet that vanished without a trace more than a decade ago. The Boeing 777 plane disappeared from radar shortly after taking off on March 8, 2014, carrying 239 people, mostly Chinese nationals, on a flight from Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur, to Beijing. Satellite data showed the plane turned from its flight path and headed south to the far-southern Indian Ocean, where it is believed to have crashed. The transport ministry said in a statement that U.S.-based marine robotics firm Ocean Infinity will search intermittently from Dec. 30 for a total of 55 days, in targeted areas believed to have the highest likelihood of finding the missing aircraft. "The latest development underscores the government of Malaysia's commitment in providing closure to the families affected by…...

9+ hour, 40+ min ago (174+ words) Wildlife experts say the wildcat's shy and timid nature makes it harder to spot moments like this A rare moment caught on camera is providing a close-up look at the mastery of the element of surprise when a bobcat spots a meal. A video taken by Joe Genest in Addison County, Vermont, shows a bobcat quietly approaching and eventually pouncing on a squirrel. Wildlife experts say the felines are elusive and use a combination of stealth and patience to sneak up on unsuspecting prey, which is what makes the moment caught on video rare. Vermont Fish and Wildlife furbearer Brehan Furfey says bobcats are on a mission during these next four months of winter. "They need to eat two deer, or 60 snowshoe hare, or 3,600 small mammals, or 100-plus squirrels. And so, that is how much they need to survive the…...

9+ hour, 41+ min ago (412+ words) A federal judge late Tuesday blocked the Trump administration from making widespread immigration arrests in the nation's capital without warrants or probable cause that the person is an imminent flight risk. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington granted a preliminary injunction sought by civil liberties and immigrants rights groups in a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. An email to the department after hours Tuesday was not immediately returned. Officers making civil immigration arrests generally have to have an administrative warrant. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, they may make arrests without a warrant only if they have probable cause to believe the person is in the U.S. illegally and is likely to escape before a warrant can be obtained, according to Howell's ruling. The American Civil Liberties Union and other plaintiffs' attorneys argued federal officers were frequently patrolling and…...
