The House is taking up a bill to prevent the Obama administration from imposing a stream-protection rule for coal mining that government experts say would eliminate thousands of jobs. The rules are supposed to replace Bush-era regulations that set up buffer zones around streams and were aimed chiefly at mountaintop removal mining in Appalachia. Republicans say they are part of Obama's "war on coal.''

Rhetoric about the administration's alleged "war on coal" has come to dominate conversation this campaign season. Once, coal miners were literally at war with their employers. Today, their descendants are allies in a rhetorical war playing out across eastern Kentucky, southwestern Virginia and all of West Virginia. The message: They now face a common enemy _ the federal government, especially the president and the Environmental Protection Agency.

A day after the festival, the air pollution across New Delhi was very severe to critical in various parts of the capital region on Thursday morning, nearly six to eight times the average levels of deadly PM 2.5 (particulate matter) that lodges itself in the lungs and increases risks of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and even lung cancers.
