During a nationally televised speech on Sunday night, Duterte flat out encouraged people to pitch to help fight his country's crime problem by shootin' some people. Duterte said he plans to offer bounties to citizens who turn in drug dealers, even if they kill them first.

"Game of Thrones" threw in a few major twists this week.

At the top, the return of Sandor Clegane aka The Hound (Rory McCann), a who's who of houses historically pledged to the Starks, a welcome return to form for Queen Margaery (Natalie Dormer), and a harrowing cliffhanger for Arya Stark (Maisie Williams).

Then there was the standoff at Riverrun.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — The repeat championship Golden State has spoken of since the very start more than eight months ago is suddenly two wins from becoming reality.

Draymond Green flexed his bulging biceps with big plays on both ends of the floor all night for 28 points, seven rebounds and five assists, while MVP Stephen Curry scored 18 points despite foul trouble, and Golden State thoroughly overwhelmed the Cleveland Cavaliers 110-77 in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night.

Zika's ground zero: Generation of babies born with microcephaly face uncertain future

Maria Vitoria is eight months old, but her fragile frame has already seen so much suffering.

She was born with microcephaly, likely as a result of the Zika virus, and her family abandoned her at birth.

Now she is growing, but the development of her brain is stunted by the birth defect, and slowly, day by day, her adopted parents Kely and Josimar Oliveira are learning what this means: can she see, does she hear them?

Discoveries like these -- heart-shredding moments -- are happening every day at the Altino Ventura Foundation Clinic in Recife.

These are the 18 most corrupt countries in the developed world

Every year, Transparency International, the global anticorruption coalition, releases its Corruption Perceptions Index, a survey into the countries people perceive as the most corrupt on earth.

As Transparency International notes, there is no hard-and-fast way "to assess absolute levels of corruption in countries or territories on the basis of hard empirical data." This is basically because, by its very nature, corruption is usually hidden from the public.

But it creates a ranking based on several other corruption studies, and gives 168 countries a ranking out of 100, where 100 is the least corrupt and 0 is most corrupt. This helps to give a pretty good idea of where in the world is most corrupt.

The countries seen as most corrupt tend to be in Africa and the Middle East, in societies with weak legal and governmental systems and widespread poverty. For example, Somalia tops this year's list, with North Korea and Afghanistan close behind.

Business Insider decided to take a look at the wealthy, democratic nations where corruption is most rife. To do so, we looked at the positions of countries within the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and then picked out those with the highest levels of perceived corruption.
