      • Iceberg lovers go wild over viral photos of the 'dickie berg' off Newfoundland's coast

        Photographer Ken Pretty — from the town of Dildo — captured aerial photos Thursday

        ​A man from Dildo, N.L. has captured the attention of iceberg lovers after photographing an oddly-shaped hunk — now popularly known as the "dickie berg" on social media — off the coast of Newfoundland.

        "I'm gettin' a lot of response, a lot of reaction to the photo because of its resemblance to ... part of the male anatomy, say," chuckled drone photographer Ken Pretty.

        In an interview Friday, Pretty said he noticed from his very first photograph that the iceberg, in an area of the province known as Conception Bay, had online potential.

        Pictures of it on Facebook had garnered over 3,000 shares and "a lot of comments" by Friday morning, Pretty said.

        "Maybe I should call him," one user wrote.

        "Frozen stiff," remarked another.

        Pretty says he's lucky he got there when he did.

        "It's melting all the time. I mean, it might go limp," he said.

        It's already shaping up to be a banner year for icebergs in Newfoundland and Labrador, with tourists and locals alike sharing their encounters online after a stretch of less-than-impressive seasons.

        Canadian Ice Service data shows over 200 icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland alone as of last week, with dozens more off the coast of Labrador making their way south.

        "Onshore winds brought in both the pack ice and the bergs," said Diane Davis, who runs a Facebook group for iceberg hunters in the province. "If the trend holds up, we should see them for May and June, too. Mother Nature only gave us a handful last year."

        But anyone rushing off to see the "dickie berg" of Harbour Grace for themselves is in for a disappointment.

        Facebook users say the tip has fallen off.

              • Super League game descends into chaos as raging bull chases players from field



                The bull had been on parade around the field with several mates to highlight the quality of beef in the Pyrénées-Orientales region of France when it channelled Greg Inglis to break free and thunder downfield, sending Dragons players leaping out of the way, vaulting the fence into the crowd to get away from the rampaging bovine.

                  Naturlich!

                  Mr Trump defended himself via video while Ms Carroll shared in detail how the alleged rape harmed her.

                    $5 million. I wonder what machinations Trump will try to get out of paying this.

                • I can only imagine what Biden the sniffer will get.

                    Your attempt at equivalency is a BIG stretch.

                  Is he suing Trump for sexual assault and defamation too?

                    • I am sorry Sloww, I was making the point the Biden is not (to my knowledge) subject to any civil or criminal case, and not going to get 'anything'. Given that the article posted says the accuser got $5 million, the statement what will Biden get as a payout from Trump seemed as rational as your interpretation that Biden is subject to a trial for sexual assault.

                      For the record, I find his behaviour you refer to as 'sniffer' to be morally wrong. Equivalence to Trump at this point seems inappropriate - but maybe something will come out at some point on the Tara Reade allegations. Plenty of scope to explore if Biden is or is not a sexpest.

                          • Chicago kayakers discover 'Chonkosaurus' turtle

                            These two kayakers and their thick Chicago accents came upon a turtle so big that they and the internet have nicknamed it 'Chonkosaurus'.
                            'I can only wonder what this thing has been eating,' one of the kayakers wrote on Twitter.
                            'I'm proud of ya!', kayaker Joey Santore said to the giant turtle in his thick Chicago accent.
