The two others are the HMS Erebus and the HMS Terror. The three vessels were trapped in 1850 in the icy waters of Mercy Bay, located 600 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle.</p> <p> The wreck was found in shallow water days after Parks Canada archeologists started the search for the 422-ton vessel along the Beaufort Sea. The team found the ship upright in silt, the three masts missing. Because of the ice cold water, the ship did not deteriorate so much. The archeologists used side-scan sonars from inflatable Zodiac boats to search for Investigator.</p> <p> Parks Canada photographers will use underwater cameras to take pictures of the wreck this week. The agency\'s divers will be deployed next summer to further investigate the ship\'s hull.</p> <p> Environment Minister Jim Prentice, who visited the Parks Canada camp on Tuesday, said finding Investigator will help Ottawa assert Canada\'s claim to the Arctic area.</p> <p> On Aug. 10, two members of Parks Canada will continue searching for Erebus and Terror in the area. Sir John Franklin led the three vessels in 1845 to complete a crossing of the Northwest Passage. Ottawa named in 1992 Erebus and Terror national historic sites even if the two vessels are still missing. Investigator and another vessel, the HMS Resolute, were sent to search for Erebus and Terror.</p> <p> Archeologists said Mercy Bay being ice-free this season helped them locate Investigator. The area has been ice-free during summers since 2007.</p> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> Article &copy; AHN - All Rights Reserved </div> </div> </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;list-style : none;"> <div style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> Sequels to "Halloween," "Scary Movie" Greenlit By Weinstein Co. </div> <div style=""> <a href=\'#\' onclick="return switchArticle(this);"> Show article </a> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; font-weight : normal; color : inherit;display:none;"> <div>Anthony Jones - AHN Entertainment Reporter</div> <p>Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN) - The Weinstein Co. has revealed some of their production slate for the future, and it\'s full of sequels.

Network president Nina Tassler says they will do better next time.</p> <p> GLAAD has given the eye network a failing mark for two consecutive years for lacking more gay characters on its shows. Because of the disappointing grades, Tassler said they have plans to include more gay representations on the upcoming episodes of their shows.</p> <p> Tassler said at the Television Critics Association fall previews, as quoted by TVGuide, "I\'m very disappointed in our track record so far. We know we will do better."</p> <p> "Once you come out of your pilot development season disappointed with yourself, you go into the current series season and look for every opportunity we can to improve the numbers we have represented in the cast."</p> <p> "We\'re going to do that, and we\'ll continue to focus on that as we go into development season. We\'re not happy with ourselves."</p> <p> The characters that are expected to be introduced include Alicia\'s (Julianna Margulies) gay brother on "The Good Wife," a new recurring gay character of "S#*! My Dad Says," and a lesbian surrogate for Jeff and Audrey (Patrick Warburton and Megyn Price) on "Rules of Engagement."</p> <p> GLAAD President Jarrett Barrios is "hopeful" that the promised new characters will "help build awareness and understanding" of the community among viewers, though he is also wary of the plan, saying "After two years of receiving a \'failing\' grade and a commitment last year to be more inclusive, we hope that CBS President Nina Tassler makes true on this promise to bring the network more in line with the industry standard."</p> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> Article &copy; AHN - All Rights Reserved </div> </div> </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;list-style : none;"> <div style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> Limited-Edition William Rast To Launch In Target </div> <div style=""> <a href=\'#\' onclick="return switchArticle(this);"> Show article </a> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; font-weight : normal; color : inherit;display:none;"> <div>Anne Lu - AHN Entertainment Contributor</div> <p>Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN) - Retail giant Target has targeted Justin Timberlake\'s William Rast.
