Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Toronto’s Pearson airport is embarking on a multibillion dollar expansion. Experts say it will jack up your cost to fly
Airport fees alone currently account for 20 per cent of your airfare. Expect that amount to rise, an expert says, as YYZ’s building project is underway to deal with skyrocketing passenger numbers.
