LONDON  A British adventurer has died and two others suffered frostbite 
as they tried to cross Greenland's ice cap on a charity hike, 
officials said Wednesday.The British Foreign Office said Philip Goodeve-Docker 
died and two others on the trek remained hospitalized.On Friday, the three-man 
expedition got caught by a strong cold wind that sweeps across the 
eastern part of the vast icecap, Poul Petersen, a spokesman for the 
police in Greenland said. A rescue helicopter was not able to reach 
the men until Saturday because of the bad weather, and on arrival 
they found that Goodeve-Docker was dead.The survivors were flown to Britain 
via Iceland after first being treated at a hospital in Tasiilaq on 
Greenland's east coast, 180 kilometers (112 miles) south of the Arctic Circle, 
Petersen said. Goodeve-Docker's body was being sent later to Britain, he 
said.Goodeve-Docker embarked on the trip to raise money for charity in honor 
of his grandfather, who died two years ago.On his website, he described 
the 500 to 600-kilometer (310 to 370-mile) trek as one of the 
great polar challenges. The adventurer said he expected the trip's dangers 
to include polar bears, strong winds, crevasses up to 500 meters (1,650 
feet) and temperatures as low as minus 50 Celsius (minus 58 Fahrenheit).

1 opening.The park services decision will save U.S. taxpayers roughly $150,000, 
but it would have cost the cites of Cody and Jackson Hole 
much more because they depend on park-related tourism.In response, city 
officials held a joint fundraiser and collected enough money to pay the 
state to clear the roads, ensuring the gates will be open on 
time.We needed to act, and if there was a way that we 
could make a difference we wanted to do that because people rely 
on that opening date, said Mayor Nancy Tia Brown. And the moment 
that the park gate opens, things are different in Cody."Officials told Fox 
many of the donations came from businesses that stood to lose revenue 
if the gates didnt open on time for the tens of thousands 
of visitors."We work on a 20-week tourism season, and if the first 
two weeks are going to be taken out because the park's not 
open, that's a big deal," said James Blair, of Blair Hotels.In central 
Florida, a Head Start program directed to cut 5 percent from its 
budget as a result of sequester decided to temporarily stop contributions 
to the employee-retirement fund, instead of cutting services. The decision 
was made with support from staffers, according to The Tampa Bay Times.The 
program provides child care and other services for preschool children from 
low-income families and for disabled children from families of all incomes.
