Sean “Diddy” Combs’ lawyer, in his closing argument on Friday, painted a picture of the music mogul as a victim of prosecutorial overreach. The defense argued that the government twisted recreational drug use and a swinger lifestyle into a racketeering conspiracy, potentially landing Combs in prison for life. Marc Agnifilo strongly criticized the government’s case and ridiculed the agents who allegedly seized hundreds of bottles of Astroglide lubricant and baby oil from Combs’ properties. His presentation was expected to be lengthy. “Way to go, fellas,” he sarcastically remarked regarding the agents’ findings. He argued that prosecutors “badly exaggerated” evidence related…

The ferry was late, but not because of the usual traffic. Sydney commuters watched from an idling boat this month as humpback whales the size of buses surfaced nearby, halting the vessel’s passage across the harbour. The curious mammals seemed to be watching them back. In June and July, it is not uncommon for whales to stop water traffic in Sydney. Winter heralds the opening of the so-called humpback highway, a migratory corridor along Australia’s east coast used by about 40,000 of the massive creatures as they travel from feeding grounds in freezing Antarctica to tropical breeding areas off Queensland…

An Israeli strike hit a street in central Gaza on Thursday, where witnesses said a crowd of people were getting bags of flour from a Palestinian police unit which had confiscated the goods from gangs looting aid convoys. Hospital officials said 18 people were killed. The strike was the latest violence surrounding the distribution of food to Gaza’s population, which has been thrown into turmoil over the past month. After blocking all food for two and a half months, Israel has allowed only a trickle of supplies into the territory since mid-May. A Palestinian boy carries a sack of food (Abdel…
