| Venezuela opposition accuses Goldman Sachs of financing dictatorship Posted: 30 May 2017 01:13 PM PDT  The president of Venezuela's opposition-run Congress on Monday accused Wall Street investment bank Goldman Sachs of "aiding and abetting the country's dictatorial regime" following a report that it had bought $2.8 billion in bonds from the cash-strapped country. The Wall Street Journal on Sunday said Goldman paid 31 cents on the dollar for bonds issued by state oil company PDVSA that mature in 2022, or around $865 million, citing five people familiar with the transaction. "Goldman Sachs' financial lifeline to the regime will serve to strengthen the brutal repression unleashed against the hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans peacefully protesting for political change in the country," wrote Julio Borges in a letter to Goldman Sachs President Lloyd Blankfein.

| Deaths from Alzheimer's Increase 50 Percent Posted: 30 May 2017 10:34 AM PDT  Deaths from Alzheimer's disease are on the rise in the United States, according to a new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Researchers at the CDC found that, in recent years, the rate of death from Alzheimer's disease increased by more than 50 percent, from about 16 deaths per 100,000 people in 1999 to 25 deaths per 100,000 people in 2014.

| On the anniversary of Harambe's death, the internet grieves with memes Posted: 30 May 2017 07:50 AM PDT  It's been a year since Harambe was killed, but the internet will never forget. Last year at this time, a curious toddler wandered into the gorilla's cage at the Cincinnati Zoo, leading zoo officials to then shoot Harambe out of fear of what he might do. Bored people on the internet — remember, this is the pre-Trump era, when people used to be bored — then took up the gorilla's cause. No one, it should be noted, wanted them to. SEE ALSO: Please don't name April the giraffe's baby Harambe Harambe memes flooded the internet, some of them targeting the Cincinnati Zoo. Things reached such an emotional pitch that the Cincinnati Zoo Director, Thane Maynard, had to come out to say that he was "not amused" by all the Harambe memes. At the time, someone had hacked into Maynard's Twitter account and begun sending messages with the #DicksOutForHarambe hashtag. Today, people on the internet remembered Harambe — without, for the most part, being an asshole about it. Here are their best remembrances. One year ago today we lost Harambe the Gorilla.
