The Australian government, which has a sometimes testy relationship with its northern neighbor Indonesia, says it's ready to help with the response to Wednesday's strong earthquake. Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told reporters Thursday the government hopes Indonesia will be able to quickly ascertain the numbers of people affected. "The search and rescue operations are still underway, but we have offered the technical assistance and the ability to assess damage," she said. A spokesman for Indonesia's National Disaster Mitigation Agency says the death toll from Wednesday's earthquake has risen to 102, spread across three districts in northern Aceh but concentrated in Pidie Jaya near the epicenter.
