Emotional moment at a Pennsylvania high school yesterday after a student crowned Homecoming King surprised everyone by passing the honor to the runner-up.
Our hearts are with the family of Megan Lambert, who has been identified as the teacher shot and killed yesterday at Silver Rail Elementary School.
Megan was only 25-years-old.
In a statement, Megan’s family shared the following: “She loved Silver Rail. This was her dream job. Megan was compassionate and had a huge heart. She always fought for the underdog and those with special needs… We would like the other families to know they are in our thoughts and prayers. Megan loved those children, and so we will show you love for her."
Megan also worked as a volleyball coach at Central Oregon Volleyball Club, where in her first year coaching, she turned down payment so that the money could go to the families of the players who could not afford to play. She was a selfless, beloved teacher, sister, and daughter who will be deeply missed.
Megan deserved better, and we will always fight in her honor.
I’ll tell you what, we’re having an earthqua—”
On this day, October 17, 1989, a massive 6.9 earthquake struck San Francisco during the live broadcast of the World Series.
Does anyone remember watching this unfold live?
Incredible footage of announcers Al Michaels and Tim McCarver maintaining their composure, unsure if they were even still on the air.
The series, played between Bay Area rivals Oakland A’s and San Francisco Giants, would forever be remembered as the “Earthquake Series.
A mother was being dragged across a parking lot by an SUV while her two babies were still trapped inside. Then 15 strangers came running from every direction, surrounding the vehicle in a desperate attempt to stop it.
It happened outside a DMV office in Jacksonville, Florida. A man had climbed behind the wheel of an SUV and was attempting to drive away with both children still in the back seat. Their mother was frantically trying to get them out when the driver accelerated, dragging her and one of her children through the parking lot.
But the people nearby weren’t about to stand there and watch. More than a dozen strangers rushed toward the SUV, surrounding the vehicle as the mother struggled to free her babies. Together, they managed to get her and both children to safety before the driver sped away.
And those strangers weren’t finished helping. Witnesses gave police the vehicle’s description and license plate number, helping officers track down and arrest the suspect later that same day.
A terrifying situation that could have ended in tragedy became an extraordinary reminder of what happens when ordinary people refuse to look away.
These heroes may have been strangers to that mother, but their courage helped bring her babies home safely. Let’s give them the recognition they deserve. 💙
Halloween can’t come soon enough! 👻
Male Bornean orangutan Berani seen giving off ghost vibes! His caretaker, Selena, was at the right place at the right time to capture this little moment.
You’ll often see our orangutans hiding under blankets or sheets, or draping them over their heads, as a way of mimicking natural forest behaviors. They use large leaves or other plant material to use as umbrellas, sunshades or for play, and for building nests. The coverings also serve as enrichment and even used for warmth on cooler days.
Happy 251st birthday to the @USNavy. Now sit down, kids. It’s story time.
You’ve probably seen the famous flag: “DONT GIVE UP THE SHIP.”
But do you know the story behind it?
@Abigailqim Those are not kinder. They are young toddlers that wander. Problem would be if one goes down they all go! And disconnect the crying babe and take care of them 🥹
Impossible not to feel inspired after seeing Alysa Liu having so much fun on the ice ❤️🤩
Little Bella represents us all! (We'd love to be able to imitate Alysa as well as she does ✨)

The USS Abraham Lincoln arrives at a Thai port after being at sea for 286 days. The disrepair of the ship is insane, look at all of the rust.
The US military looks weak under Trump and Hegseth. This is pathetic.
Cute first date idea for young LA locals: have a romantic picnic in front of the Leia choking Jabba the Hutt to death statue at the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art.
