“Bretagne taught me the way,” dog handler Denise Corliss said, “and I continue to be able to do the work.”

His job during the deployment was to serve as a logistics manager and support the task force members working on the pile — including newbie Corliss and her cheerful young dog.

Belarus protest leader Kolesnikova sentenced to 11 years in jailMaria Kolesnikova, one of the leaders of mass street protests against Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko last year, was sentenced to 11 years in prison on Monday, the state-run Belta news agency and the Belarusian opposition reported.
