The yellow rubber duck, which made its first appearance in Hong Kong ten years ago, was welcomed back to Victoria Harbor on Friday. This time it brought a friend along because, as the artist behind the project has explained, ‘Double duck is double luck’. However, the next morning there was again only one. The other 18-meter-high duck had deflated, turning the duo into solo. The organisers said they had decided to let the air out of one of the birds due to due to safety concerns amid high summer temperatures. The remaining duck in the harbour seems quite okay. We just hope that rubber ducks don’t get as attached to each other as swans do. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Freedom over censorship, truth over narrative.

US Border Patrol agents rushed to the rescue when they encountered a family of Haitian migrants stranded in the middle of the Rio Grande River on Saturday. The family, a five-year-old girl and her parents were attempting to cross the river and had almost reached the bank when the ground they were standing on collapsed, plunging them into deep water. The guards leaped into action, managing to pull the mother and child from the water quickly, then braving the river once more to save the father, who needed emergency medical aid. Miraculously, all three were later discharged from the hospital after receiving treatment; a lucky escape from a situation that could have ended in tragedy. #news #RioGrande #worldevents -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Freedom over censorship, truth over narrative.
