Hundreds of people have donated more than $33,000 to help a Baltimore mother—who made national headlines last year for smacking her rioting teenage son—after that same son accidentally set the family’s home on fire last weekend.

An elephant thought to have travelled at least 1,700 kilometres from India into Bangladesh after becoming separated from its herd by floods died on Tuesday despite last-ditch efforts to save him.

First Admiral Mohd Taha Ibrahim of the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) said early investigations suggested the ship's disappearance was not caused by theft or robbery.

According to a report, Snapchat is buying Vurb, a smartphone search and home screen app. And much like Snapchat's interface itself, this decision is not exactly obvious. The clearest reason I can see is that the Vurb could help Snapchat be easier to use. Looking at Vurb, you can see it's built around finding and showing things to users in a clear and informative way, sort of like Google Now.
In 1996, the GOP dumped Dole to save its congressional majorities. For Donald Trump’s campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, it must be like déjà vu all over again.
