MANILA, Philippines -- Two teams of rescuers prepared Monday to dive into typhoon-roiled waters off the Philippines to find a way inside a capsized ferry in a desperate effort to locate some 800 people believed to be aboard.
If Tuesday's planned underwater missions fail, a tugboat will be on standby with gear to cut through the ferry's hull as a last resort -- a prospect complicated by a cargo of bunker oil that could leak and turn the human disaster into an environmental one.
A U.S. navy ship carrying search and rescue helicopters was headed in, and a P-3 maritime surveillance plane also was being dispatched. "We want to express our condolences to the Philippine people," State Department spokesman Tom Casey said.

[David Wilkins] said Norad is a symbol of the special partnership between Canada and the U.S. The Canadian arm of Norad is based in Winnipeg near the airport.
It was also involved in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks, when U.S. airspace was closed and flights were diverted to Canada. Norad has expanded to include intercepting drug smugglers and maritime surveillance. The Canadian base reports to Norad headquarters in Colorado.

While opposition politicians wanted to know when the mission would end, what would be considered "success," and what the ultimate price tag would be, the Liberals, NDP and Bloc Québécois unanimously supported a Conservative motion supporting Canada's deployment to Libya, not long before the election was called late last month. The fact that Canadians are not being told what the war has cost us is worrisome, and begs comparisons to similar complaints made against the Conservative party over the true costs of Canada's purchase of 65 F-35 stealth fighter jets.
