An orca has been spotted off the coast of Victoria, British Columbia, propping the body of her dead newborn calf up in the water with her head for two days, researchers say.
Deborah Giles, a biologist with the Center for Conservation Biology, told KCPQ the photos are "heartbreaking."
"It reflects the very strong bonds these animals have, and as a parent, you can only imagine what kinds of emotional stress these animals must be under, having these events happen," Baird said, according to the Times.

Former Taliban hostage Caitlan Coleman returned to the United States with her three children, almost six years after she was abducted while backpacking across Afghanistan with her husband.
She decided to leave both Canada and Boyle behind, with her three children.  Caitlan is pregnant with her fourth child.
Officials often expressed doubts about Boyle's motives in traveling to Afghanistan with his then-pregnant wife in 2012. 
Boyle still faces 19 criminal charges and is restricted to his parents' home in Smiths Falls, Ontario, while he continues psychiatric treatment and awaits trial.

  • United States gross domestic product rose at an annual rate of 4.1 percent in the second quarter, up from 2.2 percent in the first three months of the year. It was the strongest quarter of growth since 2014.

  • Consumer spending rose 4 percent, but private investment fell slightly as the housing market cooled.

  • Exports rose 9.3 percent, driven in part by a surge in soybean shipments tied to President Trump’s trade policies.

The shooting took place at the Circle A Food Store in Clearwater. McGlockton's girlfriend parked in a handicapped spot while McGlockton and their 5-year-old son went inside. Drejka approached the vehicle and began a heated argument with Jacobs over parking in the spot without a permit.

McGlockton left the store, walking up to Drejka and shoving him to the ground. Just seconds later, Drejka, who has a conceal-carry permit, pulled out a gun and fired one shot at McGlockton, killing him.

PHOTO: Supporters of Julian Assange, who remains inside the Ecuadorian embassy, place messages of support on railings around the embassy in central London, July 23, 2018.

Julian Assange, born in Australia in 1971, is a computer programmer by trade who has been involved in hacking schemes, targeting the Pentagon, the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA, the U.S. Navy and several private American companies.
In 2006, he founded the website WikiLeaks, which published secret information leaked to the site by whistleblowers.
WikiLeaks has published massive dumps of unredacted diplomatic cables, thousands contained sensitive information, and classified intelligence documents relating to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2007, it uploaded a U.S. Army manual for dealing with prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.
During the 2016 presidential campaign, WikiLeaks began publishing thousands of hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee. It was very embarrassing to the party.

Well, it is the biggest tax giveaway to giant corporations in modern memory. Let’s not kid ourselves. It’s got lots of moving parts, but the key, the part that’s the whole central issue here is $2 trillion in giveaways to giant corporations.
Number one recipient is estimated to be Wells Fargo, who will walk away with billions of dollars. You do remember Wells Fargo, the company that opened the fake accounts to cheat its own customers.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. weighs in on revelations from a new book by Donna Brazile about the DNC, the 2016 election and whether the nominating process was rigged for Hillary Clinton.  

Double talk?

"Look, there was a time in a very prosperous America — an America that was growing a middle class, an America in which working families were doing better generation after generation after generation — where the top marginal rate was well above 50 percent.

And that is what this Lady is trying to do... Tax above 50%.
