Poor little dog had to be rescued from lagoon 2 times by police officers
When a little dog found itself stuck in a lagoon on Wednesday, two brave police officers came to the rescue and pulled the pup out. That, however, was just the beginning of the ordeal. "As soon as the dog’s feet hit the ground, without so much as a thank you, it ran off towards the tot lot where several families were playing," the Milwaukee Police Department wrote on Facebook. "Minutes later, there was another splash. The dog jumped back into the water."

"While waiting for the boat, they were trying to coax the dog back to shore. After a few minutes the officers could see the animal was starting to struggle in the thick weeds and muck. That’s when Officer Spingola said he had to go in." As he was "swimming towards the dog, the dog was struggling to keep afloat. When he reached him, the dog was wrapped up in the weeds, tangled in fishing line and had a hook and bobber hanging from him." As you can see from the video above, the story has a happy ending. Now all they need is for the owner to claim the "happy and healthy" brown poodle mix. WATCH: Teach Your Dog to Text a Selfie
At least 28 killed in bloody Mexican prison fight
By Uriel Sanchez ACAPULCO, Mexico (Reuters) - A brutal fight broke out in a prison in the Mexican Pacific resort of Acapulco on Thursday, leaving at least 28 inmates dead in one of the worst outbreaks of violence in the country's troubled penal system in recent years. Acapulco is the biggest city in Guerrero, one of Mexico's most lawless states and a center of opium poppy production that has been a major concern to U.S. officials. The prison carnage was particularly embarrassing to Mexico as it came the same day U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly was visiting Guerrero, located in the southwestern part of the country.
Twitter schools Rick Perry on basic economics after he speaks at a coal plant
If Econ 101 taught us anything, it's that supply follows demand. But U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry interpreted the basic principle a little differently while at a coal plant in West Virginia Thursday. SEE ALSO: Rick Perry denies the reality that CO2 is the main climate change driver, and here we go again According to
Market Intelligence energy reporter Taylor Kuykendall, Perry offered up some wisdom at a tour of the Longview Power Plant. "Here's a little economics lesson: supply and demand. You put the supply out there and the demand will follow." DOE Rick Perry at coal plant:"Here’s a little economics lesson: supply and demand. You put the supply out there and the demand will follow." — Taylor Kuykendall (@taykuy) July 6, 2017 But that's not how the laws of supply and demand are usually described. It's not all "build it and they will come" in the real world. Twitter noticed and called out the climate change-denying energy secretary. That is literally the opposite of how it works. You create the supply to MEET the demand.
