12-year-old Peachtree Corners girl was runaway

PEACHTREE CORNERS, Ga. -- A 12-year-old girl missing for most of Monday has returned home.

Kelsie Lee had been reported missing around 8:45 a.m. after her mother said that she had left home to drive her son to school. When the mother returned home, another daughter told her mom that Kelsie took out the garbage and never returned.

After a search that lasted throughout the day and into the night, Jennifer Aliff said that she saw Kelsie walking down West Jones Bridge.

"I said, 'Are you Kelsie?' and she said, 'Yes,'" said Aliff. "And I said, 'Sweetheart, everybody's looking for you. Can I take you home?' She's like, 'Please. I'm just so scared.'"

Kelsi Lee had been missing much of the day Monday, and was found safe. She has returned home. 11Alive

Investigators said that this case did not fit the criteria to issue a Levi's Call. In order for a Levi's Call to be activated, police must believe that an abduction occurred, or must have reason to believe that the child is in imminent danger or injured.

Iranian linked to stolen passports on doomed jet

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia -- Beijing sent two delegations here Monday to probe stolen passports as reports surfaced that an Iranian man purchased the two tickets used by those passengers on the Malaysia Airlines flight that disappeared Saturday off the coast of Vietnam.

Chinese diplomat Guo Shaochun arrived with a 10-member working group from the Chinese ministries of foreign affairs, transport, public security and the civil aviation administration. Earlier, a team from China's Ministry of Public Security arrived to discuss the passports with their Malaysian counterparts.

The passports, one Italian and one Austrian, were stolen in Thailand in 2012 and 2013. CNN and the Financial Times, citing Thai police, reported that an Iranian man named Kazem Ali purchased the tickets used with the passports for two friends who he said wanted to return home to Europe. The tickets were paid for in cash, the reports said.

Guo said he hoped his team would help speed up Malaysia's investigation of the jet's disappearance and improve co-ordination between the several countries now involved. In Beijing, foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang said the Chinese government "urges the Malaysian side to step up their efforts to speed up the investigation and provide accurate information to China in a timely fashion."

The Global Times, a leading Chinese Communist Party newspaper, was less diplomatic. "The Malaysian side cannot shirk its responsibilities," said a biting editorial. "The initial response from Malaysia was not swift enough. There are loopholes in the work of Malaysia Airlines and security authorities."

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 had left Kuala Lumpur bound for Beijing with 239 people aboard -- most of them Chinese -- when it vanished from radar screens.

Late Monday, Vietnam's Deputy Minister of Transport Pham Quy Tieu said a third day of search and rescue operations failed to turn up a trace of the jet. He said four countries have been authorized to search in Vietnamese territory - Malaysia, Singapore, China and the USA. Overall, ten countries were involved in the search.

He said operations would continue Tuesday and would include more aircraft to cover a wider search area. Phu Quoc, a resort island in the Gulf of Thailand, has been established as the command center for Vietnam's efforts to locate the jet.

Pollen counts 23 times higher than last year

The week started with pollen cuonts 23 times higher than this time last year. 11Alive's Julie Wolfe reports. 11Alive

Julie Wolfe, WXIA 7:40 a.m. EDT March 11, 2014

ATLANTA -- Swollen eyes? Running nose? Scratchy throat? Blame the pollen. Pollen counts in Atlanta Monday were 23 times the count on the same day in 2013.

"This is by far the highest count that we have had by this date in the past five years. In2012 we had peak counts toward the end of March. Last year the counts did not peak until early April," Dr. Stanley Fineman from the Atlanta Allergy & Asthma Clinic told 11Alive's Julie Wolfe.

Compare the pollen totals of the last several years (measured in pollen grains per cubic meter of air):

March 10, 2014: 943
March 10, 2013: 41
March 10, 2012: 51
March 10, 2011: 8
March 10, 2010: 462

Fineman says the cold snap coming later in the week will bring mixed results: "Cold snaps will knock the pollen counts down, as will rain. But as soon as the weather warms and the sun comes out, the pollen will be back. This also creates a phenomenon known as the 'Priming Effect.' This 'Priming Effect' occurs when someone with pollen allergy is exposed to that pollen, then the exposure is removed (such as with cold weather), and subsequently when that person is re-exposed to the allergen pollen, there can be even more dramatic allergic symptoms."

The main pollen in the air right now is coming from hardwood trees including elm, cedar, alder, and maple.
