A Florida couple's Carnival cruise vacation was almost ruined last weekend as they attempted to board because one of them was carrying a 2-inch house key shaped like a gun.

A Florida couple's Carnival cruise vacation was almost ruined last weekend as they attempted to board the ship because one of them was carrying a 2-inch house key shaped like a gun.

Henry Echevarria, a deputy sheriff in Pasco County, Fla., was boarding a cruise ship in Port Canaveral with his wife Lisa Jan. 15 when a ship security agent halted them at the entrance.

"He pulls out my key and says 'Oh, here's the problem," Echevarria told WTSP.

As a law enforcement official, Echevarria says he understands routine security procedures but was shocked that such a small item would cause an issue. The deputy sheriff says he tried to explain that there was no way the key could be used as a weapon.

"First of all, you can't even get your finger in the hole if it was a gun and you can barely get a finger around the grip," he said. "They say I can't have it. I can't get on the boat. I either need to get rid of it take it back or not cruise."

But ship security stood firm and, left with no choice, Echevarria elected to have the key placed in the ship's safe until returning back to port. But the law enforcement official says the cruise line's unusually strict policy could have harmful security implications for customers.

"They [Carnival] have my address, they have my key, all they need to do is make a replica and next thing you know they could be at my house," he said.

After his vacation, Echevarria says his key was returned but told FoxNews.com that he has tried reaching out to the cruise line for an explanation.

"So far the one time I called to speak with customer service, "John" kept trying to blame the security company and would not get that the supervisor from Carnival was the one who ultimately took my house key and placed it in a safe at Port Canaveral," Echevarria said.

He also says he's sailed with Carnival before and never had an issue with his house key.

Carnival may not have contacted Echevarria to resolve the issue but in an emailed statement to FoxNews.com, Carnival's vice president of corporate communications Jennifer De La Cruz, reiterated the cruise line's prohibited items policy which bans "all firearms including replicas, imitations and their components."

"While our Prohibited Items Policy does prohibit "all firearms including replicas, imitations and their components," a house key shaped like a firearm is not what is meant by the term 'replica' and the key should not have been retained," De La Cruz said.

"We contacted the third-party company that provides security services at the port in question to discuss the matter and initiate corrective training so this doesn't occur in the future."

Echevarria says he still awaiting a reply from Carnival.

You've heard about the historic Women's March on Washington, a demonstration that filled the streets of the nation's capital on January 21, 2017 and brought more than one million people out to protest across the country.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
You've heard about the historic Women's March on Washington, a demonstration that filled the streets of the nation's capital on January 21, 2017 and brought more than one million people out to protest across the country.

The message of the march was unequivocal: women's rights are human rights and they need to be respected in the aftermath of Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton.

Here's a look at the women who served as national co-chairs of the march, which they hope will now become a movement.

A seat at (the head of) the table

"History is going to record this march, one way or another, and it will say, 'In 2017, there was another white women march and black women still didn't feel like they should be a part of it,'" Tamika Mallory warned members of the march's organizing committee earlier this month at their New York City headquarters. "If that's going to happen, I may as well go home."

When the first women-led march on Washington happened in 1913, a few thousand suffragists paraded from the US Capitol to the Treasury Department the day before Woodrow Wilson's inauguration. While the demonstration proved to be a successful strategic move in elevating the suffrage movement from a state-by-state fight to the national stage, the few black women in attendance were instructed to march in a segregated section of the procession. Seven years later, with the adoption of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, women gained the right to vote. But for many black women, state-sanctioned voter disenfranchisement based on race meant they were legally blocked from exercising that right until the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, almost half a century later.

"
There cannot be a convening in this nation that seeks to address the issues of women where women of color are not sitting in the front seat leading the conversation."
- Tamika Mallory

A provocative, ongoing conversation emerged before the 2017 march over which women's concerns would be elevated.

"The black community has to be at the center of this conversation and they need to know we are welcome in this space," Mallory, the former executive director of Reverend Al Sharpton's civil rights organization, the National Action Network, told the group of communications and strategic planners seated around a large wooden dining table.

Mallory, a 36-year-old black woman raised in the Manhattanville public housing projects in Harlem, New York, rocked back and forth, balancing on the leg of her chair -- embodying the "seat at the table" metaphor. But for Mallory, it wasn't enough for women of color to simply have a seat at the table.

"There cannot be a convening in this nation that seeks to address the issues of women where women of color are not sitting in the front seat leading the conversation," Mallory told CNN. "Because we come from the most impacted and the most marginalized communities."

Beyond what is typically considered to fall under the umbrella of "women's issues," Mallory says that as the mother of a 17-year-old boy whose father was lost to gun violence, she has the right to live free from fear that her son may become the next victim, as black men disproportionately are, according to CDC data. And that, she insists, is a women's issue.

A lifelong learning

Bob Bland was running late. The group's website crashed earlier that morning and she entered the headquarters in a flurry, throwing off her winter coat and setting her 6-week-old baby down on the velvet couch in the middle of "the war room," as fellow march co-chair Carmen Perez called it.

Bland, 34, was one of the original founders of the march that started as a Facebook event post that went viral, setting into action a domino effect of women organizing across the country.

"I think one of the most transformative things about this march and the movement that is rising from it is that people who are not used to getting out of their comfort zones are now finally saying, 'Okay, enough is enough. We cannot abide by this anymore.'"

Bland is CEO of Manufacture New York, a fashion design and production incubator for independent designers. She describes herself as an advocate of local manufacturing. When it comes to activism, she's designed a collection of "Nasty Woman" t-shirts and tote bags, appropriating the name Trump called Clinton during the third presidential debate.

But the march was a whole new thing.

"I personally have learned so much as someone who previously, I would say, was on the sidelines before this," said Bland, seated next to a shelf of large coffee table books about the history of activism and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "What I've never done before is get out of my comfort zone," she said.

For some women who were already in the trenches fighting the forces of sexism, racism, xenophobia and other -isms and phobias, welcoming these first timers can come with a heavy dose of, "it's about time."

Bland said she gets that.

"
If we can activate and mobilize hundreds of thousands of people who previously would have just been behind a screen, then that might make the difference."
- Bob Bland

"I'm a very mainstream, white, cisgender, hetero, American woman, and I'm the type of people who needs to be recognizing their privilege," Bland said. The baby had moved from the couch to breastfeeding in her arms. "From there, you can learn so much more from actually just not taking up space, letting people of other colors, of other religions, or other gender expressions speak, and listening to that."

A month earlier, members of the national committee were gathered for a meeting, many of them seeing each other face-to-face for the first time after weeks of corresponding online. Vanessa Wruble, head of campaign operations for the march, noted the symbolism of the birth of Bland's daughter Chloe just a couple of weeks earlier, during the first few days of organizing. There were jokes about giving birth to a movement. For Bland, the moment marks a new beginning, one of lifelong learning that she says she looks forward to being able to share with her two daughters.

"It might be uncomfortable, it might be hard work, it's definitely going to inconvenience many people," she said. "But if we can activate and mobilize hundreds of thousands of people who previously would have just been behind a screen, then that might make the difference."

A larger trajectory of moving

It was six days until the Women's March on Washington, but Linda Sarsour was already marching -- in the streets of Brooklyn, where she was born and raised.

"No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here," Sarsour chanted through the Bay Ridge neighborhood amid a sea of poster boards with hand-inked messages of resistance, love, and rejections of discrimination.

She stopped along the route to shake hands and give hugs. She let the crowd file past her as she captured the procession on her cellphone camera -- children propped up on dads' shoulders, headscarf-clad women, Spanish speakers and seniors.

"I've been accused of being un-American," said Sarsour, co-founder of the online organizing platform MPower Change, and an outspoken critic of the targeted surveillance of Muslims in America that has taken place from the local to the federal level since the 9/11 attacks. "I tell people all the time that, 'In fact, I believe that I am of the most patriotic of this nation because I love my country enough to hold it accountable and to push it to be a better nation'."

It was Martin Luther King Jr., Day and the crowd funneled into the preschool of Our Saviour Lutheran Church. Sarsour stepped up to the podium, and with a nod to the day named for a man that is now celebrated with a national holiday, she advised the crowd to remember King as a "black radical revolutionary," who was the victim of police brutality and who wrote letters from jail. "He was a man who was called by the highest level of U.S. intelligence, 'the most dangerous Negro in America'," she told the crowd.

She reminded the crowd of how the FBI marked Dr. King as such after delivering his now famous "I Have a Dream" speech to a crowd of more than 200,000 at the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

"
I've been accused of being un-American."
- Linda Sarsour

"Standing up for justice, standing up for the most marginalized amongst us has never been easy," Sarsour told the crowd, noting that Dr. King was just three years older than she is now when he was assassinated at the age of 39. But the power to do so, she told the audience, is in the hands of ordinary people.

Sarsour hopes that many of the march attendees who had never previously been to a protest or don't consider themselves activists will leave the Women's March on Washington not only inspired to engage, but aware of the dozens of partner organizations in attendance working on issues ranging from reproductive health, to LGBTQIA rights, climate change and the representation of women in elected office.

"The idea is, once you get back to your home town in Oregon or in New Jersey or in Michigan, that you get to plug back into the work that has already been going on in this country," she said.

For Sarsour, who has juggled her work as executive director of the Arab American Association of New York, an immigrant social services agency, with volunteering to lead the fundraising efforts for the march, "January 21st is just another climactic point of a larger trajectory of moving and organizing."

The biggest birthday party ever

"What really excites me about this march is that I'm gonna be celebrating my 40th birthday on January 21st," Carmen Perez told a group of her fellow march organizers as they introduced themselves in the New York headquarters in early December.

The group, seated in a circle, some overflowing from the couch and chairs onto the floor, cheered and assured Perez they'd throw her the biggest birthday party ever. January 21 would be the day of the Women's March on Washington.

Birthdays have been tough for Perez since she was a teen. On her 17th birthday, she buried her older sister, Patricia, who was killed in a car crash at the age of 19. She says the death of her sister gave her a sense of drive and purpose, launching her into a lifelong commitment to working on behalf of young people from marginalized communities, and in the juvenile and criminal justice system, where blacks and Latinos are overrepresented among the incarcerated.

"T his is not about Democrats versus Republicans. This is about humanity", Perez, the executive director of the Gathering for Justice, told CNN of the purpose of the march.

As a Mexican-American woman, she considers Trump's rhetoric, calling Mexicans rapists and campaigning on building a wall on the US-Mexico border, as a personal attack on her and her community. "It's not about creating a more powerful political party that is not going to represent our communities, it's about our communities being represented in our politics," Perez said.

One way she hopes the march will help achieve that is by creating an opportunity for coalition building across intersecting issue areas -- bringing together those who work on criminal justice reform with those who work on immigration, for instance, all in one place.

"T ogether, we're building collective power," Perez said.

Two hours before the start of the event, Perez's mother called from California to sing to her daughter over the phone for her birthday.

"This is the biggest gift I've ever had," Perez said, reflecting on the strong turnout of the march, "to see a sea of women and their families come together is the best gift anyone could receive on their birthday."

But the march was not an end in itself -- January 22 was when the real work begins, she said.

"We're going to go back to our communities and we're going to organize even more," Perez said. "We're going to continue to build our political power, we're going to continue to elevate our communities and those that are most impacted by these issues."

But for that night, after the march was the after party.

Smartphone batteries are blamed for Note 7 fire.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Samsung is blaming poorly designed and manufactured batteries for the overheating problems that caused some of its Galaxy Note 7 phones to catch fire.

"Our investigation, as well as the investigations completed by three independent industry organizations, concluded that batteries were found to be the cause of the Note 7 incidents," the world's largest smartphone maker said Monday.

The results of the months-long investigation are Samsung's second attempt at explaining what went wrong with the flagship phone. The first time around, Samsung blamed the problem on one of its battery suppliers, but its initial response failed to stop the reports of fires and it was eventually forced to kill the product entirely.

The fiasco over the phone wiped out billions of dollars of profits and tarnished Samsung's brand around the world.

On Monday, Samsung and independent investigators saidproblems were found in batteries from two different suppliers -- the ones that started catching fire right after the phone's launch in August and also those used as replacements.

The first battery's outer casing was too small to accommodate the components inside, causing them to short-circuit and overheat, according to the investigations. The second battery's overheating stemmed from other design defects and a missing key component.

"I deeply apologize to all of our customers," Koh Dong-jin, president of Samsung's mobile communications business, said at a news conference Monday.

Affiliate company Samsung SDI, which made the first set of faulty batteries, said Monday that it is working hard to secure customer trust and improve safety. Hong Kong-based Amperex Technology, which produced the replacement batteries, said it was preparing an official response.

Samsung and the independent investigators said neither the overall design of the Note 7 phone nor the company's own manufacturing process were to blame for the battery issues.

But Samsung did acknowledge that it may have asked too much of its battery suppliers.

The Note 7 called for a much more powerful battery to satisfy consumers' increasing use of video and games, Koh said. But Samsung did not want to compromise on the size of the phone.

To meet those needs, new designs and manufacturing technology were used by the battery suppliers.

"We provided the target for the battery specifications," Koh said. "And we are taking responsibility for our failure to ultimately identify and verify the issues arising out of battery design and manufacturing process."

Samsung outlined several steps to prevent a similar debacle happening again. It has formed a "battery advisory group" made up of experts from academic and research centers, and has also introduced stronger quality assurance processes, including random inspections of suppliers' batteries.

Absent from the press conference was any admission that Samsung's corporate culture may have played a role in the Note 7 debacle.

"Samsung is a very aggressive company. Was something happening in the decision-making process that contributed is the lingering question in my mind," said Bryan Ma, vice president of device research at IDC.

"They still could have taken on more blame themselves," Ma said. "For now they've done the least of what they should be doing."

Doron Myersdorf, CEO of battery startup StoreDot, suggested it was too simplistic to blame the batteries alone. Instead, it was the specific combination of the battery and smartphone design that caused the fires.

"The battery itself might pass all the standalone tests and could be perfectly fine when tested outside the phone," he said. "Once the battery is in this specific design of the phone, with no room to swell, it can create this rare situation."

Samsung is one of StoreDot's investors.

Problems with the Note 7 emerged immediately after its launch in August, with several reports of phones catching fire. Airlines and aviation authorities started warning passengers not to use or charge the devices on planes.

Samsung stumbled in its early response to the crisis, issuing a massive worldwide recall and offering replacements that it said were safe. But then reports started coming in that the replacement phones were catching fire, too.

In the long run, being "transparent about the Note 7 saga" should help win back customer trust, according to TuanAnh Nguyen, a mobile analyst at research firm Canalys.

But for now, "Samsung needs to continue communicating with its customers that the Note 7 incident was an isolated incident, and devices currently on sale and devices sold are not affected," Nguyen said.

The company finally killed off the Note 7altogether in early October.

Samsung said Monday that 96% of about 3 million Note 7 devices have been returned.

Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura died in a car crash at age 25 also former major leaguer Andy Marte, 33, died Sunday in a separate wreck

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Another Dominican player, former major leaguer Andy Marte, 33, died Sunday in a separate wreck in the Caribbean nation, MLB.com reported.

Ventura pitched in the 2014 and 2015 World Series and helped the Royals win a world championship in 2015, the statement said. He was drafted by the club in 2013, had a 38-31 career pitching record and started in nine postseason games.

Reports from the Dominican Republic said the crash happened on a highway in Rancho Arriba, a town in the province of San Jose de Ocoa, according to an article by mlb.com on the Royals official website.

Ventura's hometown is Las Terrenas, where the funeral services are expected to take place, the article said.

"Our prayers right now are with Yordano's family as we mourn this young man's passing," Royals general manager Dayton Moore said in the statement. "He was so young and so talented, full of youthful exuberance and always brought a smile to everyone he interacted with. We will get through this as an organization, but right now is a time to mourn and celebrate the life of Yordano."

Other players and wrecks

The deaths of Marte and Ventura come about four months after the death of another young baseball player.

Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez, 24, and two friends were killed September 25 when their boat crashed off Miami Beach. A native of Santa Clara, Cuba, Fernandez was the National League Rookie of the Year in 2013 and a two-time all-star.

The Dominican Republic produces many major league baseball players. One of them, retired Boston Red Sox star David Ortiz tweeted: "I have not words to describe this....R.I.O my boy"

Marte, also a native of the Dominican Republic, was an infielder and had played with the Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians and Arizona Diamondbacks. He played for several minor league teams, including the Pittsburgh Pirates organization.He played the last two seasons with KT Wiz in South Korea, MLB.com reported.

ESPN, citing authorities in the Dominican Republic, reported he was driving a car that struck a house between San Francisco de Macoris and Pimentel, about 95 miles north of Santo Domingo.

Other Dominican players died recently in auto accidents in that nation.

Jose Rosario, 20, a minor league player for the Houston Astros, died January 1 in a motorcycle wreck, Beacher report said.

Ramon Ramirez, 23, a minor league infielder for the Baltimore Orioles organization, died January 7 when his motorcycle wrecked, according to Bleacher Report.

Oscar Taveras, an outfielder for the St. Louis Cardinals, died October 26, 2014, when the car he was driving ran into a tree on a highway in Puerto Plata, north of Santa Domingo, Bleacher report said. His 18-year-old girlfriend also died in the crash.

Ventura, a friend to Taveras, was pitching in the World Series when he heard the news, Bleacher report said. He dedicated his next game to his friend and wrote "RIP O.T." on his hat.

Social media was filled with condolences for Marte and Ventura.

Andrew McCutchen of the Pittsburgh Pirates tweeted: "To the families of Yordano Ventura and Andy Marte. I send my deepest condolences. RIP."

Three puppies have been rescued alive from the ruins of a mountain hotel in Abruzzo, central Italy, which was engulfed by an avalanche five days ago.

The number of confirmed deaths has risen to seven, with 22 people still missing, but there are hopes people may have survived in air pockets.

Nine people were brought out alive while two were found outside the hotel.

Rescuers using shovels and saws are considering whether to start using heavy equipment on the buried ruins.

Details have emerged of the situation at the hotel just before the avalanche. The manager, Bruno Di Tommaso, told officials in an email shortly before the disaster on Wednesday that his guests were terrified by multiple earthquakes that day, and were prevented from leaving by snowdrifts.

However, there was no mention of a potential avalanche. Italian officials have since confirmed that the area was not considered to be at risk of such an event.

The local authorities say a snowplough was due to begin work on the road to the hotel on Wednesday evening but the avalanche struck in the late afternoon.

Meanwhile, preparations are being made to bury some of the victims. In a church in the nearby town of Farindola, people could be seen paying their respects at the coffin of Alessandro Giancaterino, who worked as a waiter at the hotel.

Seventh death

The body of a woman was recovered on Monday afternoon. Five bodies were brought out earlier while a sixth which was found cannot yet be removed.

Italy avalanche: A cruel coincidence

The well-loved resort hit by tragedy

Avalanche survivor ate snow to survive

The recovery of three shaggy white Abruzzo sheepdog pups meant there were still air pockets in the ruins, firefighters told reporters.

"We knew these dogs were there but we did not know where exactly," one rescuer said.

"When we understood where they were, we warned the firemen, who were allowed to enter the structure. We located them in the boiler room. Now the priority is to get them seen by a veterinarian, even if at first glance it seems that they are in very good health."

Luca Cari, a spokesman for the firefighters, said it was a "fight against time" to rescue the missing people.

Shafts have been dug into the snow and concrete to allow rescuers access, while electronic probes are being used to search inside for the slightest noise that might be a sign of life.

Rescue crews from the fire brigade and other services have taken precautions to secure themselves in case of a new avalanche, with escape routes planned out and tracking devices issued to each member, the Associated Press reports.

Radar has been set up to give early warning of any new slide, AFP news agency reports.

The avalanche - weighing some 120,000 tonnes - hit the luxury hotel with a speed of about 100km/h (60mph).

Some of the firefighters are taking inspiration from last week's rescues.

One, Marco Filabozzi, said: "We did three earthquakes: Amatrice [24 August 2016], Camerino [26 October] and Norcia [31 October]. We only found dead people.

"When we broke that wooden panel and saw those three children huddled against each other, we looked at each other and we suddenly understood: those angels erased all the dead for us."

Alessio Feniello, whose son Stefano, 28, is among the missing, accused the authorities of misleading him into thinking his son had been rescued along with his girlfriend.

"If there was a thread of hope of rescuing [my son], there isn't any hope anymore," he was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency.

'We never stopped'

In his email, Mr Di Tommaso, the hotel manager, warned the authorities in Pescara province, the local police chief and the mayor of a nearby village, Farindola, that the situation was "worrying".

He asked them to prepare to intervene, saying stranded guests terrified by the earthquakes were preparing to spend the night in their cars.

Italian media say the Pescara authorities already knew at 07:00 (06:00 GMT) on Wednesday that a special, high-powered snowplough would be needed to unblock the road to the hotel. The avalanche, triggered by the earthquakes, struck at about 17:00 later that day.

The daily Il Messaggero says Pescara President Antonio Di Marco saw the email at 14:00.

"Nobody underestimated the email," he said, explaining that he had assured the hotel owner's sister that a special snowplough - a "turbina" - would be on its way to unblock the road by that evening.

"For me it is an irrelevant email - we never stopped," he said.

Trump signs executive order withdrawing US from TPP trade deal

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Making good on a campaign promise, President Trump on Monday signed an executive order withdrawing the United States from the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.

He also signed two other orders -- one placing a hiring freeze on some federal workers and the other reinstating a ban on funding for international groups that perform abortions.

The TPP, a giant and semi-secret 12-member free-trade agreement advocated by the Obama administration, aimed to deepen economic ties between the U.S. and 11 other Pacific Rim nations, cut taxes and foster trade to boost economic growth in the process.

"We've been talking about this for a long time," Trump said, as he signed the document. He called the order to pull out of TPP a "great thing for the American worker."

Trump argued on the campaign trail that the TPP is harmful to U.S. workers and robs the manufacturing sector.

"We're going to have trades but we're going to have one on one...if somebody misbehaves we will send a letter and they'll have 30 days to work it out," Trump said.

Supporters of TTP said it would have been a boon for all 12 nations involved and would unlock business opportunities on a global scale. Opponents argued, among other things, it would encourage exporting U.S. jobs to low-wage nations.

Trade has been the rare issue where Trump and labor unions have found common ground.

"With this decision, the president has taken the first step toward fixing 30 years of bad trade policies that have cost working Americans millions of good paying jobs," Teamsters Union President James Hoffa said in a written statement.

But Trump's stance on trade has created tension from some within his own party.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., called the withdrawal a "serious mistake that will have lasting consequences for America's economy and our strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region."

McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, also said the decision will "forfeit the opportunity to promote American exports, reduce trade barriers, open new markets, and protect American invention and innovation."

He added that it would "create an opening for China to rewrite the economic rules of the road at the expense of American workers."

On the campaign trail, Trump also criticized NAFTA -- the North American Free Trade Agreement -- saying the U.S. manufacturing sector had been battered by bad trade deals.

During a meeting Sunday, Trump signaled he would make changes to NAFTA. Signed into law in 1994 by former President Bill Clinton, NAFTA is a trade agreement between the United States, Canada and Mexico. It essentially eliminates almost all tariffs between the three nations, allowing the flow of goods and supplies across borders.

One of the other executive orders Trump signed reinstates a ban on federal funds going to international groups that perform abortions or even advocate it as an option.

The ban has been in place since 1984 and has gone back and forth depending on the party in power in the White House.

Pro-life groups praised the decision.

"President Trump is continuing Ronald Reagan's legacy by taking immediate action on day one to stop the promotion of abortion through our tax dollars overseas," Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser said in a statement.

Former President Obama ended the ban in 2009.

Trump reinstated it one day after the Jan. 22 anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision that legalized abortion in the United States.

"With this action, Donald Trump has turned his anti-women rhetoric into policy, and made it more difficult for women and families all over the world to access vital reproductive care," NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue said in the written statement. "He really is living up to the lowest of expectations."

The new commander-in-chief also signed an executive order on Monday that froze hiring for some federal government employees.

"Except for the military," he said when signing it.
