Attack targets London mosque
The

Offensive or taking back terms?

Washington Post.
What remains
Hecla Mining Company (the
same company in a deadlock with miners in Mullan, Idaho, who are on strike) has
started reclamation work at a mine it bought and closed in Montana two years ago, the
Flathead Beacon reports.
