Breaking News of the Day: Americans Shane Bauer and Joshua Fattal have finally left Iran today after being held in Tehran’s infamous Evin Prison for the past two years.

The two were detained along with Sarah Shourd by Iranian border guards while hiking in Iraqi Kurdistan near the Iranian border. Shourd was released on bail last year.

Bauer and Fattal were convicted in August of illegal entry and espionage and sentenced to eight years behind bars. Today, the two men were finally allowed to post bail, and, following the deposit of $1m, were released into the custody of Swiss and Omani diplomats.

They were flown to Oman, and reunited with their families and Shourd — who has since become engaged to Bauer.

Adorable Animal Being Adorable of the Day: A featherless baby penguin was recently welcomed into the world at Laohutan Pole Aquarium in Dalian, China — though not by its parents, who abandoned the sickly chick to fend for itself.

Happily, the aquarium staff adopted the helpless hatchling, and reared it with the help of some stuffed animals until it sprouted some feathers and was ready to return to its waddle.
