MCALLEN, TEXAS - Ana's family has owned a small plot of land along the US-Mexico border in Texas for generations. For years, they've watched as immigrants crossed the Rio Grande River and passed through their property just a quarter of a mile away.

A new supervolcano is brewing under Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire
Something unexpected has been gradually making itself known to geologists in the United States. A huge mass of molten rock is creeping upwards beneath the nation’s north eastern states. “The upwelling we detected is like a hot-air balloon, and we infer that something is rising up through the deeper part of our planet under New England,” says Rutgers University geophysicist Professor Vadim Levin. Traces of the brooding mass only became evident through a large-scale new seismic study.

We can't believe we're publishing yet another story of some random tourist being exceedingly idiotic while on vacation. This time around, a video on YouTube has emerged showing a person attempting to pat a lion from inside the window of a car. Let's just say the lion was not impressed. Shot in Tanzania's Serengeti National Park, the short flick had more than 1.2 million views at the time of publication.
