Zookeepers 'devastated' as much-loved hippo Mana suddenly dies at the age of 26 at a popular NSW zoo
Mana the 26-year-old hippo died at Taronga Western Plains Zoo on Tuesday
He was a beloved animal but tragically suffered sudden acute heart failure
Staff from the zoo shared the news and said they're 'devastated' by Mana's death

Rest in peace
I have a dream
A world free from the plague of Islam
A world that has never known the horrors of the cult of death.
My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream

RIP Sidney Poitier, the first black man to win the best actor Academy Award, dies aged 94

Sidney Poitier — who broke racial barriers as the first black winner of the best actor Oscar and inspired a generation during the civil rights movement — has died aged 94.

Poitier created a distinguished film legacy with three films in 1967 at a time when segregation prevailed in much of the United States.

In Guess Who's Coming to Dinner he played a black man with a white fiancee and In the Heat of the Night he was Virgil Tibbs, a black police officer confronting racism during a murder investigation.

He also played a teacher in a tough London school that year in To Sir, With Love.
