“So I shouldn’t be surprised that the Mother’s Day Parade shooting has largely been forgotten. On Sunday, shots were fired into a crowd during a parade in the New Orleans 7th ward. Police said they saw three suspects running from the scene.
This is the largest mass shooting in the United States where the shooters were still at large after the crime was committed. Think about that for a minute. From Columbine to Virginia Tech to Fort Hill to Aurora, all the shooters were either killed or apprehended on site. But the person or people responsible for shooting 19 Americans are still free.”

Rockhopper Penguins taking a freshwater shower in the Falkland Islands. The penguins use the waterfall to wash off the sea salt and dirt from the nesting colony. Competition for space under the small waterfall is intense and often leads to noisy dispute.

You are so loved, CeCe. Thank you for your leadership.
The blanket octopus does not mess around. If attacked by a Portuguese Man o’ War, the octopus is not only immune to any stings, but will actually rip off the Man o’ War’s tentacles and fling them around like whips to defend itself against the predator.
There is a huge amount of sexual dimorphism. The females grow up to 2 meters long, while the males typically are smaller than a walnut shell. For reproduction, the male fills a special tentacle with sperm and deposits it into the female. It breaks off after completion, and he dies.
