We've now identified four additional victims, so there's now a total of 12 victims. We're going to continue to encourage victims and witnesses to come forward and contact law enforcement.
We've been in a very active period, more or less, for about the last 30 years in the Atlantic. But it's really important to remind everybody in hurricane-prone areas that it doesn't really matter what the seasonal forecast says. There are risks of impacts every year.
Cardinal Robert Prevost grew up in the south suburbs of Chicago, which have suffered economic decline over the decades. His home parish, St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church in Dalton, has been closed and abandoned for more than a decade. But within an hour of Prevost being named the first ever American Pope, people began to stop to take pictures, pray, and even weep.
Mary Simons was among them.
Others who arrived said they hope the church can reopen and turned into a basilica. For NPR News, I'm Michael Puente in Chicago.
Courts are pushing back against the Trump administration's efforts to cut off billions in grant funding that Congress approved during the Biden administration. In Rhode Island, a judge said the funding freeze appears to be unlawful and told the government to restart payments to nonprofits while a lawsuit plays out. And in the District of Columbia...
A judge temporarily blocked the Environmental Protection Agency from unlawfully suspending or terminating grant funding. The judges said the EPA hasn't provided evidence of wrongdoing by the grant recipients. The EPA said it's reviewing the ruling. Other agencies named in the Rhode Island case declined to comment or didn't respond to messages seeking comment. Michael Copley, NPR News.

Mandalay's airport remains closed, hampering relief efforts, with the UN warning of a severe shortage of medical supplies in a country whose public health system was already in tatters after four years of civil war following the 2021 coup. Myanmar's insular military rulers are allowing some aid in, with China and India the first to send supplies.

The first shipments of international aid arrived this morning at the airport in the former capital, Yangon. They came from neighboring China and from India, and included search and rescue and medical teams, as well as blankets and other provisions. But the epicenter of the quake was just outside Myanmar's second biggest city, Mandalay, some 360 miles to the north by road.
The airport there remains closed. Rescue workers say their efforts have been stymied by a lack of equipment and personnel, with some resorting to digging with their hands. In neighboring Thailand, rescue workers used heavy equipment to try to rescue dozens of construction workers trapped in the rubble after a 33-story skyscraper under construction collapsed.

The EPA last year awarded nonprofits about $14 billion in grants to help pay for things like solar projects in low-income communities. Congress provided the money under the Inflation Reduction Act, which was signed by former President Biden. Under President Trump, the EPA said it was canceling the agreements, based in part on concerns about waste, fraud, and abuse.
