Police find body of missing Euro 2012 fan

BYDGOSZCZ, Poland - Polish authorities believe a body found floating in a canal Wednesday is that of an Irish soccer fan who came to the country for the European Championship, officials said, after documents in his name were discovered on the corpse.

James Nolan, 21, of Blessington, County Wicklow, disappeared early Sunday in the northern city of Bydgoszcz, sparking a huge search effort in the city. Police divers found a body early Wednesday and authorities are awaiting the arrival of Nolan's father, Jimmy, and other family members later in the day to make a formal identification.

"There is a high probability that this is the body of the man we have been searching for," a spokesman for prosecutors, Jan Bednarek, told The Associated Press.

The body was found lying face down in fast-flowing water of the Bydgoszcz Canal and trapped by a weir that runs across it. The canal is an offshoot of the city's Brda River, and brings water for a small hydroelectric plant.

No signs of violence were apparent, deputy chief prosecutor Wlodzimierz Marszalkowski told the AP. Robbery didn't appear to be the motive since 600 zlotys ($200) and a credit card were found on the corpse, he said. An autopsy was planned for Thursday.

The clothing on the body matched a description given by friends of what Nolan was wearing when he went missing, Marszalkowski said.

Police and firefighters, some in boats and others with dogs, had been searching along the river, canal and adjacent waste ground Tuesday and again on Wednesday. Moments before the body was found, two divers in an inflatable dinghy were seen speeding toward the site. A police cordon was quickly set up around the area, which is near a museum and a church.

In a sign of mourning, someone later placed two white candles near the place where the body was found.

Nolan was in Poland for Euro 2012 to follow Ireland, which has now been eliminated from the soccer tournament. He had been traveling with friends in a rented camper van, but was also registered at a hotel on the city's outskirts. He was last seen visiting local bars after watching televised games in a fan zone Saturday night.

Two of Nolan's travel companions, 22-year-old Aidan Willoughby and 24-year-old Adam Cullen, described him as a "smiley, outgoing person with a very witty sense of humor" and known by the nickname "Jam."

Their group of seven arrived in Bydgoszcz on Saturday to meet with other Irish friends. They watched the Poland-Czech game in town and then went into a market square pub around midnight.

"There we enjoyed drinks with the locals, who had been extremely friendly all night," Nolan's friends said in a statement.

"Around 2 a.m., a member of the group (not James) was involved in a minor altercation with a small group of local men sitting in the bar," the statement said. "The minor altercation ended in a matter of seconds and all involved and the rest of our group remained in the pub. Shortly afterwards, we decided to leave the bar as a number of the group wanted to go home and others went to find a nightclub.

"It appears that Jam left the group or pub alone prior to this. When Jam failed to return to the hotel by late morning and was not contactable, we became extremely concerned and members of the group contacted local police at 2:30 p.m. Others drove and walked around the city area looking for him and contacted hospitals."

Debt Consolidation Myths Exposed

Debt Consolidation is a term frequently used when talking about money matters and debt management. Although it is considered to be a very good strategy for managing debts but it is not fully understood by a majority of people. In fact, there are a lot of myths and misconceptions that people hold about consolidation of debts. Some of the most common myths are discussed here.

The most common myth that people hold is that debt consolidation is the same as or similar to debt settlement, debt management and bankruptcy.? The truth is that although, these terms are used together, they are not used to refer to the same thing. Consolidation of debts means that a person repackages or reorganizes his or her debts by combining them all together. Debt settlement and debt management are terms that are used to refer to the process of getting help from specialist firms to deal with creditors and reduce the total amount owed.

The last term, which is bankruptcy, is completely different from consolidation of debts as bankruptcy is a legal procedure and completely releases a person from his or her debt obligations.

The second most common myth people believe to be true is that debt consolidation can harm a person?s credit score. The truth is that, if the whole process is managed correctly, there is no way that a person?s credit score can be harmed by consolidation of debts. In fact, the credit score might even be improved through consolidating debts. This is because, timely repayment of loans helps one?s credit score improve and this can be achieved by consolidation of debts.

Another commonly held myth is that debt consolidation requires a person to get help from an agency or a lawyer.

In reality however, one can easily consolidate his debts on his own. Obviously, the debtor needs to have certain knowledge about the process before attempting to do it on his own. But by taking help from an agency, the debtor may benefit more as the agency has professionals with years of experience and specialized knowledge.

Many people also believe that only financially constrained people consolidate their debts. This is absolutely false since businesses and wealthy individuals also opt for this solution as they get great benefits from it.

One more myth held by people is that Debt Consolidation puts a person deeper in debt since it involves taking a loan to repay earlier loans. Although there is some truth in this, but one should remember that there are significant differences among various debts. Repaying loans with higher interest rates is more difficult than repaying one with a low interest rate. This is because the monthly payments are low and if the same amount is paid, the person becomes debt-free sooner.

G20 ramps up pressure on Europe over debt crisis

LOS CABOS, Mexico (Reuters) - World leaders stepped up pressure on Europe to do whatever it takes to combat its debt crisis after a victory for pro-bailout parties in a Greek election failed to calm markets or ease worries that wider turmoil could derail the global economy.

The world's major industrialized and developing economies are set to urge Europe to take "all necessary policy measures" to resolve a crisis that has raged for over two years, according to a draft communiqu? prepared for a Group of 20 summit in the Mexican resort of Los Cabos and seen by Reuters.

U.S. President Barack Obama, concerned Europe's woes could upend his re-election hopes, requested a meeting with its leaders on Monday evening. He will also hold one-on-one talks with Germany's Angela Merkel, who has rebuffed calls for bold new measures.

European officials rejected the notion that they were to blame for weakening growth across the globe, and played down hopes for any quick miracle cure for the 17-nation euro zone.

"Frankly, we are not coming here to receive lessons in terms of democracy or in terms of how to run our economy," said European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso.

Protected by Mexican navy vessels and troops on sun-baked beaches and highways, leaders from the Group of 20 countries representing more than 80 percent of world output began a two-day meeting to prioritize growth and job creation against a backdrop of a weakening global economy.

Escalating violence in Syria and the near-collapse of a United Nations-brokered peace plan was also in focus as U.S. President Barack Obama met with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The two super powers have clashed over arming Syria and U.N. sanctions. Obama said he and Putin agreed on the need to seek an end to the violence. The Russian president said he and Obama found many "common points" over Syria.

But Europe's battle against a debt crisis that has led Greece, Ireland and Portugal to seek EU/IMF rescues, and forced Spain to seek aid for its banks, was set to dominate an opening discussion of G20 leaders on the global economy.

The World Bank lowered its forecast for global growth in 2012 to 2.5 percent and warned that developing countries faced a long period of financial market volatility and weaker growth.

RELIEF RALLY FLEETING

A narrow victory for the conservative New Democracy party in the Greek election on Sunday eased concerns the heavily indebted country could exit the euro zone soon but did little to calm financial markets.

After an initial relief rally, the euro fell against the dollar and Spanish bond yields hit a new euro-era high above 7 percent. European stocks ended 1.2 percent lower.

Fitch Ratings agency said the Greek result had lowered the risk of a disorderly default and the scenario of a euro zone exit, but it also warned that any new government in Athens was likely to be fragile.

"The win in Greece does not really resolve anything," said Boris Schlossberg, managing director at investment advisory firm BK Asset Management in New York. "It's still going to be tough for Greece."

Merkel, speaking to reporters after landing on the southern tip of Mexico's Baja California peninsula in the middle of the night, welcomed the Greek result but said she could not accept any loosening of the austerity measures and deep structural reforms Athens has agreed to as a condition of its two EU/IMF bailouts totaling 240 billion euros.

"The Greek government will and must deliver on the commitments it has agreed to," she said.

That puts her on a collision course with the winner of the Greek vote, conservative Antonis Samaras, who campaigned pledging to renegotiate elements of the rescue and reiterated that stance on Monday, saying "amendments" were needed to relieve "crippling unemployment and huge hardships" for Greeks.

Greece will ask to spread 11.7 billion euros in austerity cuts over four years instead of two, a New Democracy party source told Reuters in Athens.

German frustration with Greece's failure to deliver on its reform pledges has risen in recent months, as has Greek anger at the tough austerity prescribed by Berlin and its partners.

In a twist of fate, Greece's soccer team will battle Germany later this week in the quarter-finals of the European championships.

David Mackie, an economist at JP Morgan, said he expected European governments would ultimately be forced to agree to an "aggressive restructuring" of the loans they have already provided to Greece to return the country to a sustainable path.

"PERPETUAL STAGNATION"

Merkel also faces intense pressure to take stronger action for the broader bloc.

But she has rejected calls for joint euro zone bonds and the creation of a "banking union" in Europe with cross-border deposit guarantees, dismissing these as quick fixes that are bound to fail and would be rejected by German courts.

Instead, she is pushing fellow European leaders to agree a road map toward closer fiscal integration that would involve ceding sovereignty over budgets to Brussels and giving more power to the European Parliament.

By sketching out what the bloc might look like in five to 10 years, she hopes to win back the confidence of markets.

But her counterparts, notably new French President Francois Hollande, have doubts about transferring fiscal powers, and it appears unlikely that Europe will deliver a "grand bargain" at a separate summit of EU leaders on June 28-29.

In Los Cabos, leaders are set to confirm they will double the IMF's firepower with an extra $430 billion in loans even though some emerging nations are frustrated with the slow pace of winning more power at the global lender.

The G20 leaders are also expected to adopt a Los Cabos Action Plan, pledging to promote economic growth and jobs, investing in infrastructure and promoting trade, while sticking to its pledges to bring down budget deficits.

"Strong, sustainable and balanced growth remains the top priority of the G20 as it leads to higher job creation and increases the welfare of people across the world," the draft communiqu? reads. "We are committed to adopting all necessary policy measures to strengthen demand, support global growth and restore confidence."

Washington outlines plan for Japan tsunami debris

Gov. Christine Gregoire announced that she is directing the state's Military Department Emergency Management Division (EMD) to spearhead efforts in dealing with potential debris from the 2011 tsunami that devastated Japan.

As recently reported in local media, a number of items have washed up on the state's beaches.

"The federal government is the ultimate lead as our state responds to tsunami debris that washes up on our beaches," said Gregoire. "But our federal partners need support to protect our coast and keep our citizens safe. There is no better agency to lead than our Emergency Management Division. That agency has the experience and know-how necessary to bring groups together to address a variety of situations."

State agencies have already begun prepping for the remains of the massive earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan in March 2011. In April, 50 representatives of local and tribal governments, state and federal agencies, and community organizations met in Ocean Shores to coordinate strategies for dealing with the anticipated influx of debris.

EMD is slated to continue working with the state's Departments of Health, Ecology, Fish and Wildlife, Parks, Natural Resources and any others deemed necessary to the process. The governor announced that plans are in place to coordinate with the governors of Oregon, California and Alaska, and with congressional representatives from those states, to lobby the federal government for funds for any clean-up costs incurred. The state had already set aside $100,000 for these efforts.

"While we expect debris to arrive slowly over the next several years, there's a chance a major storm could wash up several thousand pounds of debris at once," Gregoire said. "That will require far more financial resources than our state has available. I'm confident our federal partners will recognize the need to ensure our beaches, our shellfish, and the livelihoods of those living on the coast are safe and protected."

One of the major concerns expressed over the debris is the potential of radioactivity. The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) has been monitoring radiation levels in the region since the disaster, and has found no unusual spikes. It also doesn't expect to find any irradiated debris because the debris was far into the ocean by the time the meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear reactor occurred.

If beach-goers do find debris they feel may be hazardous or contain oil, they're advised to contact (800) OILS-911. The state's Department of Ecology is always at high alert regarding any potential hazardous materials found on Washington beaches. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is collecting information about any potential debris from Japan, and citizens can report possible debris by contacting them at disasterdebris@noaa.gov.

'Prometheus' FX Supervisor Gives Inside Look At First Scene

Martin Hill tells the Daily how he set the stage with the visually arresting opening scene.

This article contains "Prometheus" spoilers.

Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" begins with some of the film's most arresting images. A hairless, pale-skinned Engineer stands atop a waterfall. He drinks a liquid that we may never learn more about, disintegrates and, in turn, creates all of life on Earth.

The visuals set the stage for the rest of the film and show Scott's use of 3-D simultaneously, and now, new videos from the Daily explore the effects work that went into making that shot and the Prometheus' crash with the Engineer ship.

Visual effects supervisor Martin Hill from WETA Digital goes into great detail during his interview about the opening sequence, the creation of life. Not only was the team challenged with creating an impressive visual, but one that succinctly told a complex story.

"Because we had such a short amount of time to tell the story of the DNA getting infected, breaking apart, and then re-forming and recombining to show Earth DNA, we had to make the designs of the different DNA quite graphical, quite illustrative of what they were," Hill said.

After some time, the sequence shifts to the microscopic level, traveling inside the veins of the Engineer. For those sequences, Scott instructed the visual effects team to emphasize the destruction being done.

"The Engineer's DNA, we thought, 'This needs to be quite sinister, but we know it's going to get infected, and the infection has to look more messed up than the Engineer's DNA,' " Hill said. "We used quite a light color palette for Engineer's DNA, and then the infection comes on and it's very melted looking. Ridley actually said to us, 'It has to feel like war in there. The DNA is just being torn apart.' "

The actual scene of genetic destruction came together from computer-generated elements, but the inspiration for the look came from a very real-life source of inspiration.

"We try to use as much reality as possible, so we were looking at all different kinds of reference, so eventually we settled on fish bones, actual decayed fish spines, to represent the structure of the DNA," Hill said. "For the infection that rolls across the infected DNA, what we did was carve actual blocks of silicone with the vein structures in there and pumped black ink and oils and all kinds of different materials through those, filmed them, and used the motion of those as the basis for all of our effects for the veins and the effect coursing through his body."

Yankees Beat Braves For 10th Straight Win: C.C. Sabathia Strikes Out 10

NEW YORK ? These AL vs. NL matchups are becoming quite a mismatch for the New York Yankees.

CC Sabathia struck out 10, Derek Jeter drove in three runs and the Yankees won their 10th straight game, beating the Atlanta Braves 6-2 Monday night.

Mark Teixeira and Robinson Cano hit solo home runs as New York equaled its longest winning streak since May 2005.

The team with the AL's best record kept rampaging in interleague play ? all 10 of these triumphs have come against NL teams with winning records, including a sweep at Turner Field last week.

"I don't think you're ever satisfied. I think when you become satisfied you can go backwards," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "Guys always feel that they can do more, and that's the bottom line."

"We're finding ways," he said. "We're doing a good job."

Since 1965, the Yankees have had only one winning streak of at least in 11 games, doing that in 1985.

"It hasn't all been blowouts," Sabathia said. "It's coming together for us."

Michael Bourn led off the game with a triple and scored when Martin Prado followed with a groundout, ending Atlanta's 20-inning shutout string. But the Braves' first game at the new Yankee Stadium and first trip to the Bronx since 2006 still resulted in their seventh loss in eight tries.

After the game, it got even worse for the Braves. Manager Fredi Gonzalez revealed that Brandon Beachy, who's leading the majors with a 2.00 ERA, has a partial tear in his right elbow.

Gonzalez did not elaborate on the severity of the injury. He said the 25-year-old Beachy would see the team doctor, then visited noted orthopedist Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion.

As for Atlanta's latest loss, Gonzalez said: "We haven't kept the lineup moving. We haven't battled in at-bats.

Indeed, Sabathia noted that the Braves "were hacking early."

The big lefty gave up seven hits in his 34th career complete game, and first since last July. He walked one, and fanned Chipper Jones and Jason Heyward to finish it.

Sabathia beat the Braves last Tuesday, too, and improved to 22-8 lifetime in interleague play. The workhorse had thrown exactly seven innings in his previous five starts, and topped that. He also became the latest Yankees starter to excel ? the group is 12-1 in June, fueling New York's dominant run.

"You don't want to be the guy who messes up," Sabathia said.

Mike Minor (3-5) took a 2-0 lead into the fifth before Alex Rodriguez opened with a sharp single for the Yankees' first hit. Robinson Cano followed with a walk and Russell Martin lined a ground-rule double. Rodriguez scored on the hit, moving him past Mel Ott for 11th place on the career runs list with 1,860.

After another walk and foul out, Jeter came up for a club that has had trouble all season getting hits with runners in scoring position. He worked the count full, then grounded a hard single into center field that gave the Yankees a 3-2 lead and brought his cheering parents to their feet in a private box.

David Ross singled with two outs in the Atlanta sixth and Bourn hit a grounder through the middle. Jeter made a dive, and the shortstop got a forceout at second.

Teixeira hit the Yankees' major league-leading 100th home run in the sixth. Jeter added an RBI single in the seventh off Kris Medlen and Cano hit his 13th homer in the eighth.

Sabathia protected the lead, making it another missed Monday chance for the Braves ? they are 0-10 on Mondays this season.

NOTES: Yankees OF Nick Swisher (bruised quad) sat out his second straight game. Girardi expects Swisher will return to the lineup in the next few days. ... Sitting in the right-center field stands, comedian-actor Cedric the Entertainer led the Bleacher Creatures in their "roll call." Recently, New York Giants center David Baas and NBA player Antawn Jamison also took part in the playful player introductions. "It's a little tradition they're starting here, like having someone sing at Wrigley Field in the seventh-inning stretch," said Cedric, a big Cardinals fan. "Jump in there with the crazies, fire everybody up." ... Braves 1B Freddie Freeman (injured finger) missed his fifth straight game.
