An avalanche buried American climber Bill Stampfl 22 years ago as he made his way up one of the highest peaks in the Andes mountains. His family knew there was little hope of finding him alive, or even of retrieving his corpse from the thick fields of snow and the freezing ice sheets that cover the 22,000-foot tall Huascaran peak.
But in June, Stampfl's son got a call from a stranger, who said he had come across the climber's frozen — and mostly intact — body, as he made his own ascent up Huascaran.
"It was so out of left field. We talk about my dad, we think about him all the time," Joseph Stampfl said. "You just never think you are going to get that call."
Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear banned the use of "conversion therapy" on minors in Kentucky on Wednesday, calling his executive order an overdue step to protect children from a widely discredited practice that tries to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity through counseling. Over 20 other states that have passed laws prohibiting the controversial treatment.
