Hello, Australia! - Did the first tangible clue as to the fate of MH370 wash up on an Indian Ocean beach? - Speaker Bronwyn Bishop is defiant in the face of calls to step down - The killer of Cecil the Lion goes into hiding - And more in your CareerSpot News Briefs:

Experts at Boeing say the debris found on Reunion Island in the western Indian Ocean looks like it could be from a 777.  And there's only one missing 777 in the entire world - Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which disappeared in March 2014.  This is thousands of kilometers away from the search area off of Australia's west coast.  The French aviation authority is coordinating with the Australian and Malaysian investigation team.  MH370 was carrying 239 passengers and crew including six Australians when it veered from its planned Kuala Lumpur-to-Beijing flight path towards the Indian Ocean, and it hasn't been seen since.

Russia used its veto power to stop a United Nations Security Council resolution that would have set up an international criminal court to prosecute those responsible for shooting down a Malaysia Airlines plane over Ukraine a year ago.  Western nations generally agree that Russian-backed rebels in eastern Ukraine shotdown MH17 using a Russian-supplied missile, killing all 298 passengers and crew including 39 Australians.  "Those responsible may believe that they can now hide behind the Russian Federation's veto," Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told the Security Council, "They will not be allowed to evade justice."  Australia, the Netherlands, Malaysia, Belgium, and Ukraine would now seek an alternative prosecution mechanism.

Three weeks in to the controversy over Bronwyn Bishop's questionable expenses charged to the taxpayers, the Speaker finally apologized to Australians for the helicopter ride from Melbourne to Geelong.  She chose a friendly setting, conservative radio host Alan Jones' show on Sydney's 2GB radio.  But while she explained that she'd be paying back certain expenses, Bishop made clear she did not want to bow to political pressure to stand down. That's not good enough for Labor, which maintains that the apology is too little, too late and that Bishop must step aside as speaker.

Convicted serial bomber Yakub Memon spent his 53rd birthday at the gallows.  Memon is the convicted financier of the 1993 Mumbai Bombings, a series of car bombings apparently set by a crime syndicate as revenge for the deaths of Muslims in riots a few months earlier.  India rarely executes prisoners, and only three have been executed since 1995.  The horror of Memon's crimes qualified him as a special case.

The Bureau of Meteorology says there is no threat of a tsunami after this morning's Queensland earthquake.  People felt it from Bundaberg and Hervey Bay in the north to the Gold Coast in the south.  Geoscience Australia said the magnitude 5.3 earthquake struck offshore in the Coral Sea and at a depth of 35 kilometers at 9:41am.

The American dentist who some believe is the world's biggest arsehole has gone into hiding, now that he has been identified as the hunter who killed Cecil, the Lion who was the main attraction at a Zimbabwe wildlife preserve.  Protesters surrounded the offices of Walter Palmer in Bloomington, Minnesota posting signs reading, "#CatsLivesMatter," and "Je Suis Cecil" - take offs on recent tragic events - and one with a much more direct message:  "ROT IN HELL".  The Internet's revenge on Palmer has been strong and swift.  A consumer webpage is inundated with negative reviews of his dental practice, movie stars have doxed his personal information, and he's allegedly received death threats.  Even comic Jimmy Kimmell, who stays away from activism on his show, choked up when he implored viewers to donate to the project that was monitoring Cecil just to show that not all Americans are total jerks.
