S. Ground troops has been put on hold. A small u. S. Team of marines and special forces landed on mt. Sinjar wednesday to assess the options for a rescue. But what they found, far fewer refugees than expected and many in much better shape.

S. Airdrops. Air strikes too diminishing the number of isis militants surrounding the mountain. The white house acknowledging the u. S. Was considering sending u. S.

Clinton sought to smooth things over at a book signing here on Marthas Vineyard but look what happened when i asked her specifically about the president s handling of iraq.

While prosecutors havent ruled out additional charges hernandezs lawyer thinks more are coming. When the investigation concludes, and all of the evidence is presented to the grand jury, that we would expect itll be additional charges filed. Reporter now hernandezs lawyers say abby and her family want to deal with the speculation ha abby went will g willingly after meeting kibby on line. They had no relationship.

Reporter neither her lawyer or authorities are disclosing specific details about how she returned home or what kibby did to her. Her lawyer saying he didnt want to compromise the case and thats not unusual in ongoing investigations but more is likely to come out during the preliminary hearing where prosecutors must present enough evidence to bind kibby over for trial, robin. The family thought it was important to get out in front and say, hey, wait a minute, everything people are thinking his point was if it was your daughter you wouldnt want these things said about her so please respect their privacy. That was key. Thank you. Well turn to that deadly collision on the racetrack involving nascar champ tony stewart, kevin ward jr.

Hot playgrounds and a warning to parents on these warm summer days, it doesnt have to be scorching outside to heat up the equipment on your childs playground. Abcs bazi kanani has all those details for us. Reporter summer sun means summer fun for kids everywhere but bare skin and hot playground equipment can lead to serious burns. Im going to get you. Reporter on five days this summer using an infrared thermometer at the hottest time of day gma investigates tested playground equipment across the country recording the highest temperatures. This metal surface in l. A. , 129 degrees. This baby swing in houston, 138 degrees. This swing if phoenix, 150. The blacktop at the same playground, a whopping 185 degrees and on the plastic slides we tested, 158 to an unbelievable 189 degrees. At 140 degrees it can take as little as three seconds for a child to get a Second Degree burn and five seconds to get a thirddegree burn but if you think the temperature outside has to be sweltering for playground equipment to heat up, think again. When this woman took her kids to the annapolis zoo it never crossed her mind to check the temperature of the equipment. Her then 22monthold girl continuely headed straight for the slide. She scooted forward. As she scooted forward it was she stopped. She screamed really loud. Something i had never heard before in my life. As i grabbed her, her skin stayed with the slide. Reporter that slide baking in the sun. She says doctors at the er told her it gave her a near thirddegree burn. It was april and it was 72 degrees. It was the first day it had hit 70 and just blew my mind. Reporter a year later she still has a scar and refuses to go down slides. You done . Yeah. Reporter the zoo told gma investigates the incident was the first of its kind and we have since implemented a policy of regularly inspecting slide temperatures. Which children are most at risk . Its really children who are 2 and younger because younger childrens skin is thinner and more delicate and they may not have the reflex to move their body part away from the heat. Reporter we tested even more equipment at a d. C. Playground with Rachel Weintraub from the Consumer Federation of america. Weve got a thermal imaging camera and thermal thermometer to check out how hot it gets. On a slightly overcast 85degree day with many kids playing we measure the slide. At first its a mild 86 degrees but watch what happens after just two minutes of sun exposure. Almost up to 100 degrees now. And after ten minutes and 133. Thats definitely hot enough to burn a child. For good morning america, bazi kanani, abc news, washington. And we reached out to the international play equipment manufacturer association. They told us they urge its members to warn parents about the hazards much burns and to take steps to reduce the risk including using cooler materials and increasing shady areas much as a young child growing up on the mississippi coast, i can remember the metal slides. Always the legs. 1 3 degrees. I didnt realize it doesnt even have to be that hot for that to happen. Coming up, why a beauty pageant contestant is doing a perpwalk instead of a catwalk. Oh, my. The surprise announcement from celine dion, the health scare that has the superstar canceling all of her concerts. A lifechanging decision.

We all know that and we dont need one more reason but i do think it is a reminder there are things under our control for at least some amount of time and thats what we should try to do you think its a good way to get the message out or is this fatshaking as some have said. I did a year of research working with morbidly obese patients and saw a lot of fatshaming and sometimes even from within the medical community and thats wrong. Either way.
