They kind of bury the lede a bit in this one so here's the important bits.

$1:
Search efforts for six missing climbers continued on Sunday, after rescuers recovered 13 dead from a strong earthquake that had trapped scores of trekkers.

Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Joseph Pairin Kitingan blamed the tragedy on a group of 10 foreigners who "showed disrespect to the sacred mountain" by posing naked at the peak last week. He said a special ritual would be conducted later to "appease the mountain spirit."

Officials have said the foreigners -- including two Canadians -- broke away from their entourage and stripped naked before taking photos at the mountain peak on May 30.

Seriously? Why did they think it would be a good idea to travel to another countries holy site, and get naked?

That aside . .spirits of the mountain? It's 2015, not 1015.
