Soon she found herself sorting through box after box of newspaper clippings documenting the racial disturbances across the country in the years that followed. There were reports from the famous uprisings that rocked Watts, Ne

Somewhere in the Mediterranean, a 26-foot-long gray whale is exploring harbors and inlets as it tries to find its way back out to the Atlantic after veering thousands of miles off course. Biologists, who have named the whale Wally, have been tracking its progress since it made its way into the waters separating southern Europe from North Africa in April. After first being spotted off Morocco, it passed Gibraltar and made its way as far as Italy before doubling back alo
