Health, Science and Environmental News
It occurred to me that tons of really important stories around these topics don't get discussed here because there are so many of them that wouldn't have their own thread. The article that made me think this today is this story about a mass die off of elephant seals and other ocean mammals, from a strain of bird flu! First…

Law Enforcement. The Good , The Bad and The Abusive
Will preface this with I do respect the multitude of men and woman who do this work with distinction. That said, I figure this will be an abuse heavy thread. I will try to also offer comments/links/stories of cops who live the usual "protect and serve". What I cannot or will not respect or defend is L E. who engage in…

Keeping Men out of Women's Sports
