"Max [the cat] lives down the street from the main entrance to campus with Ashley Dow and her family, but he rarely hangs out at home.

"Ever since she started letting Max outside when he was 1, he’d head straight to the college campus and soak up the attention from students.

"'He usually goes over in the morning about 8 when I go to work, and he’ll come home in time for dinner, or one of the students will come over and drop him off'"

The Biden administration hopes to eventually make the free tax filing site an option for most Americans."

"Republicans have criticized it as a costly and unnecessary government alternative to private-sector offerings… "

But of course they did 🙄

The recent news from the United States of bird flu in dairy cows has alarmed the Cambodians.
“The lesson learned from the U.S. is that we need to look more in these other animals and do more tests,” said Dr. Tum Sothyra
The ministry is expanding testing to animals that are likely to eat infected birds,such as ferrets &wild dogs, but he hopes it can find the funds to test cows as well
Poultry, however, is more difficult to surveil.

New York Times: ‘New Territory’ for Americans: Deadly Heat in the Workplace

"In the coming months, this team of roughly 30 people at the Occupational Safety and Health Administration is expected to propose a new rule that would require employers to protect an estimated 50 million people exposed to high temperatures while they work. They include farm laborers and construction workers, but also people who sort packages in warehouses, clean airplane cabins and cook in commercial kitchens. "

The Washington Post knew - in 2001 - that the home of a Supreme Court Justice flew a flag that supported the violent overthrow of the government, and decided it was not newsworthy based on the uncorroborared and plainly ridiculous assertion that the flying of the flag was not political. Our mainstream media is broken- how could they have been so credulous and naive? How can it not be a story that the home of a member of the highest court in the land is flying a flag associated with a violent storming of the U.S. Capitol in an effort to execute the Vice President and members of Congress?! What else are they not telling us? Seriously our elites need to get their heads out of their own arses. #giftarticle https://wapo.st/4dS1BCf

'The rediscovery of a long-forgotten slave narrative would be notable enough. But this one, scholars who have seen it say, is unique for its global perspective and its uncensored fury, from a man living far outside the trans-Atlantic network of white abolitionists who often limited what the formerly enslaved could write about their experiences.'
