The whitesboro folks dont see it as racist. The settler is hugh white, who was actually adopted by the anaya tribe, and it apparently shows a friendly wrestling match, not an attack, but that isnt stopping the controversy over what it appears. So this was a friendly match. That was apparently a friendly match. I think there was someone who lost out there. Well, it could have been worse. It could have been the hamiltonburr.

Reporter this all starting in 2014 when the cashstrapped city of flint stopped paying for water from lake huron and began to process water from the nearby flint river to save some 19 million. Immediately, residents began to complain of badtasting, foulsmelling water. Tests later revealing toxic levels of lead in the system. But it wasnt until more than a year later that authorities declared the Drinking Water unsafe. The city has switched back to lake huron water, but the river water damaged the pipe system and lead levels are still not safe. Alex perez, abc news, flint, michigan. Thats a reminder not to go swimming in flint water anytime soon. But it is a serious crisis. Very serious. We hope they figure that one out. 100,000 people. Ouch. Still ahead on this edition of this happened you wont want to miss. But first, state of the president. Eight years later and many things have changed. Perhaps hes gotten a bit grayer. Actually a lot. Some things havent changed, though. Thats next on world news now. Live picture at capitol hill, where i think many of the politicians have gone right now. But last night there it was the end of an era. The final state of the Union Address from president obama. A lot has changed over the years. Here now with the evolution is abcs terry moran. The president of the United States reporter for the last time barack obama heard that famous shouted announcement as he strode into the House Chamber to give his state of the Union Address.

Whats the one thing in your life you that think prepares you best for that moment . In difficult or stressful moments i dont get rattled. Reporter and obama himself turned out to be a highly polarizing president. Polls show hes never become either hugely popular like Ronald Reagan and bill clinton or hugely unpopular like jimmy carter or george w. Bush. His favorability hovers under 50 . His presidency a time of turmoil and division and bitter, angry politics. The opposite of what he promised and hoped when he burst onto the scene with a speech thagnighted t that ignited the 2004 democratic convention. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of america. Reporter america has come to know this couple, this historic first family, and watched as their girls grew up and watched as their dad grew gray. Thank you. God bless you. God bless the United States of america. Reporter for nightline im terry moran. Its one thing a president never gets away with, is those videos we do in the media of how theyve aged and grayed.

Jim is a retired corrections officer who runs an orphaned Wildlife Center in otisville, new york. They have 11 bears there on the property. Raising them from an early age, which is why they are so friendly. This video makes me very uncomfortable. Partly because of the manicure. But also because of the size. The size of that bear . Yeah. The lack of a manicure and the size. Yeah. Well, how about some more bears . This ones a little more rough. But a lot smaller. Here are a couple of pandas lounging on a lazy day in china. When one of the pandas cant just chill out. Biting and trying to eat the other, you see. But pandas are not herbivores apparently. Theyre designed to eat meat. But they apparently chose not to, you know, make them essentially vegetarian, making them essentially vegetarian. This segment has had more bears than west hollywood.
