Protests, not riots. And there are protests all the time whenever a controversial decision is made, it's our national sport. Another confounding factor is the very aggressive calendar set up, where due to the span between the doses not

I'm a former high jumper and I have mixed feelings about this… I'm happy for them and it was a really great competition. A jump-off is brutal and can be kind of humiliating as you are exhausted physically and mentally and the bar

I feel there is a larger philosophical question here. If a law cannot be enforced, should it still be made into law, to signal the expected behavior to law abiding citizens, or should it be left out of the books? Say for example there is a

You may have missed the fact that not all these 573K living centenarians are 100 year olds, only half of them are, the rest are already 101 or more, and of those only half of them are 101, the rest are already older.
