20 years after a Washington state dam was slated for demolition, 1,100 acres of ecosystem along the Lower Elwha River is recovering, having lain muddy and dormant under the dam’s engorged reservoir for more than a century.

And now, 171 years after the land left their hands, and 114 years after it was flooded, the Lower Elwha Klallam tribe is just a signature away from having it all returned to them.

This comes from the state of Victoria, Australia. These anti abortion bots are screaming on Facebook. The State election will take place next month

An 18-year-old high school graduate in Arizona spotted an elderly man walking through a Walgreens car park in a pair of badly worn shoes.

Jordan Hope was on his way to the bank when he saw the man, drove past, then felt compelled to turn around and go back. He ended up taking the slides off his own feet and giving them to the stranger.

But the story didn't end there.

After driving away, Jordan returned to check on him and found the man inside Walgreens trying to buy some sweets. Jordan bought them for him, then took him to lunch at Culver's.

During their conversation, he learned the man had lost his wife just two weeks earlier.

"That honestly broke my heart," Jordan said. "I just think he needed a friend."

Since then, Jordan has reportedly stayed in touch and checks in with him by phone every day. A fundraiser launched on the man's behalf has also raised money to help cover groceries and expenses.
