Report: Many women died in migrant shipwreck

ROME (AP) ? A migration expert says only 3 of an estimated 100 women on a migrant ship that capsized off Italy have been rescued, and no children have been saved so far.

Italian experts say at least 94 people have died in Thursday's shipwreck of the southern island of Lampedusa.

Simona Moscarelli, a legal expert for the International Organization for Migration in Rome, told The Associated Press that "only the strongest survived" the capsize and most of the migrants coming from Africa could not swim.

She based her comments on her agency's early interviews with survivors.

California: Remember Yesterday When We Said Our Obamacare Exchange Got 5 Million Hits? Yeah, It Was More Like 645,000?

That?s quite the walk back.

Via LA Times:

California?s health insurance exchange vastly overstated the number of online hits it received Tuesday during the rollout of?Obamacare.

State officials said the Covered California website got 645,000 hits during the first day of enrollment, far fewer than the 5 million it reported Tuesday.

The state exchange had cited the 5 million figure as a sign of strong consumer interest and a major reason people had so much difficulty using its $313-million online enrollment system.

Dana Howard, a spokesman for Covered California, said the error was the result of internal miscommunication.

?Someone misspoke and thought it was indeed 5 million hits. That was incorrect,? he said.

Howard said the revised Web traffic still represents a huge response. He said the number of unique online visitors Tuesday was 514,000 and the state received 19,000 calls.

Meantime, Californians were still running into computer problems and long hold times during the second day of enrollment under the federal healthcare law.

Those glitches have prompted Covered California to shut down its online enrollment system twice.
