HANOI, Vietnam — Vietnamese police concluded Monday that a broken pipe allowed water to leak into a tour boat anchored for the night in Ha Long Bay after cooling valves were left open, killing 12 travelers on board. The crewman in charge of the boat's engine went to bed and forgot to close the valves that allow water to flow in to cool the motor, said Quang Ninh provincial police spokesman Le Thanh Binh. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/21/vietnam-tour-boat-sunk-du_n_825856.html
