^^^ If all cops would do some more friendly outreach like that (not necessarily doing anything so elaborate as that, but just showing "neighborliness"), what a better world this would be!

Good going, officers! MAJOR kudos!!!

NBA players are donating money, often very large amounts, to pay the workers that are laid off in their arenas because the NBA season is suspended. For example, rookie Zion Williamson has pledged to pay all of the salaries of the workers in his arena for 30 days: https://www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...rkers-n1158661

The penguins at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium have been going on "field trips" to explore the building after it closed its doors to visitors amid coronavirus fears. The aquarium shared videos of a group of rockhopper penguins taking a walk inside the facility and visiting the other animals.

To see other videos of the penguins' field trips see the site below.
