Helen Thomas, a pioneer for women in journalism, has died at age
92.The irrepressible White House correspondent who used her seat in the
front row to grill 10 presidents -- often to their discomfort and
was not shy about sharing her opinions -- died at her apartment
in Washington.Thomas had been ill for a long time and in and
out of the hospital before coming home Thursday, said friend Muriel Dobbin.
She made her name as a bulldog for United Press International in
the great wire-service rivalries of old and as a pioneer for women
in journalism.Thomas was persistent to the point of badgering. One White
House press secretary described her questioning as "torture" -- and he was
one of her fans.Her refusal to conceal her strong opinions, even when
posing questions to a president, and her public hostility toward Israel,
caused discomfort among colleagues.In 2010, that tendency ended a career
that had started in 1943 and made her one of the best
known journalists in Washington. On a videotape circulated on the Internet,
she said Israelis should "get out of Palestine" and "go home" to
Germany, Poland or the United States. The remark brought down widespread
condemnation and she resigned.In January 2011, she became a columnist for
a free weekly paper in a Washington suburb, months after the controversy

a World War II-era German submarine nearly 70 years after it sank
under withering U.S. attack in waters off Nantucket.The U-550 was found
Monday by a privately funded group organized by New Jersey lawyer Joe
Mazraani. It was the second trip in two years to the site
by the team, some of whom had been searching for the lost
U-boat for two decades.Using side-scan sonar, the seven-man team located
the wreck listing to its side in deep water about 70 miles
south of Nantucket.Sonar operator Garry Kozak said he spotted the 252-foot
submarine during the second of an exhausting two days of searching. Kozak
said the team asked him if they'd found it, then erupted in
joy without a word from him."They could see it with the grin
(on my face) and the look in my eyes," Kozak said.On April
16, 1944, the U-550 torpedoed the gasoline tanker SS Pan Pennsylvania, which
had lagged behind its protective convoy as it set out with 140,000
barrels of gasoline for Great Britain, according to the U.S. Coast Guard
website and research by Mazraani.The U-boat slipped under the doomed tanker
to hide. But one of
