Drilling has begun as part of an effort to reach the 33 miners who have been trapped underground in Chile for more than three weeks.The effort to drill through more than 2,300 feet (700 meters) of rock and safely extract the workers could take three to four months. The hole currently under way is the excavation hole, where the drill bit will be placed.The miners have been stuck in the desert copper-and-gold mine since an August 5 cave-in and are surviving on supplies funneled to them from above ground through three bore holes, each about four inches in diameter.Rescue officials have said they plan to send down food over the next few days. There are also plans to send down more beds, which is a slow process, said Ximena Mata, the Chilean government’s point person.Until now, the men living in what they have dubbed “Refuge 33″ have been surviving on liquids.

The forced resignation of Shirley Sherrod from her position as Georgia State Director of Rural Development for the United States Department of Agriculture occurred after conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart posted video excerpts of Sherrod’s address at a March 2010 NAACP event to his website. The NAACP condemned her remarks and U.S. government officials called on her to resign. Upon review of the unedited video with context, the NAACP, White House officials, and Tom Vilsack, the Secretary of Agriculture, apologized soon after and Sherrod was offered a new position. The excerpts were posted by Breitbart on July 19, 2010, shortly after the NAACP passed a resolution “calling on Tea Party leaders to repudiate those in their ranks who use racist language in their signs and speeches”.
