The Daily Standard has published our selection of 'World Pictures' for almost ten years. It started as a result of seeing so many pictures on the Associated Press wire service that illustrate breaking news, current events, natural wonders, foreign cultures and the human condition. But most of these images could never have fit in our print edition. As of a week ago, The Daily Standard switched to a tier of service from the AP more appropriate for a newspaper of our size. Unfortunately this tier does not have carte blanche access to AP pictures, and we will be retiring our 'World Pictures' feature. Thank you for learning about our world with us through 'World Picts'.

A white U.S. Navy cap, Navy memorabilia and old photographs are displayed on the kitchen table of Pearl Harbor survivor Ira "Ike" Schab, 103, at his home in Beaverton, Ore. on Monday, Nov. 20, 2023. Schab was in the Navy and on the USS Dobbin during the Pearl Harbor attacks on Dec. 7, 1941. Eighty-two years later, Schab plans to return to Pearl Harbor on the anniversary of the attack to remember the more than 2,300 servicemen killed. (AP Photo/Claire Rush)
