PROBLEM: Researchers have discovered four extinct underwater volcanoes thousands of feet below the water off the coast of Sydney The calderas are believed to have formed 50 million years ago when supercontinent Gondwana was splitting up into the regions we now know as Australia and New Zealand. And this quartet of 'hotheads' may offer geologists clues about how exactly this tectonic movement took place. The volcanoes were discovered 125 miles (200km) off the southwestern Australian coast using the Investigator ocean explorer from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). Scientists from the University of New South Wales Australia were searching for nursery grounds for larval lobsters when the sonar images spotted the volcanoes 16,100 feet (4,900 metres) underwater.Four volcanoes found in a cluster 125 miles (200km) off coast of SydneyResearchers found the ancient underwater formation by accidentCluster is 12 miles (20km) long, 4 miles (6km wide) and rises 230ft (700m)Experts believe they tell 'part of the story' of how Australia and New Zealand separated between 40 and 80 million years ago

PROBLEM: (CNN) -- During the last four months, the people of Ukraine have been fighting for their freedom, independence and European path in a war started by Russia-backed terrorists and their accomplices. Ukrainian military forces suffer heavy losses in battles against terrorists equipped with the newest Russian weaponry. We've seen reports of the pro-Russian thugs shooting women and children, cynically calling it a "protection of the Russian-speaking population." The price we are paying to bring peace back to the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk in eastern Ukraine is too high. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has proposed the decentralization of power as part of his peace plan. It means more freedom, more economic autonomy and more opportunities to use languages spoken in a particular community for every region.Pavlo Klimkin: With downing of MH17, price of peace in eastern Ukraine already too highKlimkin: Ukrainians know bitterness of loss, share grief with families of the deceasedHe says the guilty must be promptly punished
