A female moose calf is lucky to be alive after a dramatic rescue on the Sheep River, just outside of Calgary.

The calf spotted the kayakers almost simultaneously. It stood up, lost its footing, and helplessly fell into the fast-moving water below. The ... read more

Discovery Of Mass Graves Reinforces Need For Truth And ReconciliationOne hundred years after the Tulsa Massacre, a team of scientists has discovered the remains of 27 people believed to be murdered by the white mob that destroyed the prosperous Black neighborhood of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1921.

The bodies of 215 children—some as young as three years old—have been uncovered so far. In both Tulsa and Br... read more

I'm not at all shocked that Wall Street and the London financial district, called the City of London, own the mainstream media.

One man in Maine owns all the papers (daily, weekly) except one (Bangor Daily News).

How perspective alters one's understanding of inflation
It's long been understood that the way one looks at something helps to determine one's response to it. It's like the famous example of a glass of water, filled halfway to capacity. A pessimist will say it's half empty; an optimist will say it's half full. They're both right, but their reaction - and what they do, predicated upon that reaction - may differ dramatically, based on how they see the condition of that glass carrying forward into the future (for example, possible drought or possible flood, and all their implications). The same applies to our financial situation, a... read more
