U.S. Navy arrives to help typhoon victims

Much-needed relief arrived in the Philippines today as U.S. Navy ships sailed in, carrying aid to help hundreds of thousands who have gone without food and clean water for nearly a week. Among them are the USS George Washington, which has 80 aircraft and 5,000 sailors to distribute food, water and medicine. The sailors shore leave was cut short for the mission. Travel remains difficult and, at times, dangerous, making it hard for supplies to get to those who need them. The official death toll from Typhoon Haiyan is now up to 2,357. More than 3,800 are injured and about 77 are still missing.

In Other News TSA PROFILING - The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has audited a TSA program that was supposed to teach agents how to spot terrorists by observing passenger behavior. The program cost $900 Million on training of TSA agents. According to the GAO, the program has yet to prove itself and isn't even based on proven methods. The TSA disagrees, saying its behavior detection officers are a "vital component" in its security program. TORONTO MAYOR - The Toronto City Council can't kick Mayor Rob Ford out of office, but they would if they could. The council voted yesterday, asking him to take a leave of absence. Ford says he's not going anywhere. The allegations continue to pile up against him. Ford's already admitted to smoking crack and drinking too much. A 500-page court report adds fuel to the fire, alleging a pattern of drug use, and erratic and sometimes abusive behavior by the mayor. Ford admits he purchased illegal drugs within the past two years, while he was in office. SAME-SEX MARRIAGE - Things are changing fast when it comes to same-sex marriage. More than a third of Americans live in states where it is now legal. Hawaii and Illinois became the latest states this week. In all, same-sex marriage is legal in 16 states and the District of Columbia. It's banned in the other states, except New Mexico, which has no state law either way. Support for same-sex marriage has doubled in less than 20 years.
