    Seattle Audubon unveils new name after severing tie to slave owner
    https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/seattle-audubon-unveils-new-name-after-severing-tie-to-slave-owner/
    Birds Connect Seattle. That is the new name unveiled Tuesday of the organization formerly known as the Seattle chapter of the National Audubon Society, as it severs ties from its namesake, slave owner John James Audubon. Birds Connect Seattle was the first major chapter in the national network to announce last year it would drop the Audubon name. The new name comes nearly two weeks after the National Audubon Society, the country’s leading bird conservation group, announced it would retain the name despite pressure to end its association with the enslaver whose racist legacy is well documented.

    Federal judge blocks Tennessee law restricting drag shows
    https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/3929140-federal-judge-blocks-tennessee-law-restricting-drag-shows/
    A federal judge temporarily blocked a Tennessee law restricting drag shows on Friday, the day before it was set to go into effect. U.S. District Judge Thomas Parker granted a temporary restraining order blocking enforcement of the law for two weeks, finding that it was “likely both vague and overly-broad.” The law, signed by Gov. Bill Lee (R) last month, criminalized drag shows that take place in public or where they could be seen by children. Parker agreed with Friends of George’s, the Memphis-based LGBTQ theater group contesting the law, that “this language could mean just about anywhere.”

Russia's state Investigative Committee said it had opened a murder investigation. State-owned RIA news agency said 25 people were wounded and 19 of them were being treated in hospital. TASS news agency quoted an unnamed source as saying the bomb was hidden in a miniature statue that was handed to Tatarsky as he addressed a group of people in the cafe.

    Cities are struggling. San Francisco could be in for the biggest ‘doom loop’ of all
    https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/city-economy-doom-loop-17846412.php
    To date, city leadership has yet to pass any major legislation to support significant changes to transform the city. Ted Egan, the city’s chief economist, believes that the likeliest scenario is that the forces of market capitalism will right the ship. Ideas such as office-to-housing conversions, for example, can’t be done quickly or at a big enough scale to make a difference, he has argued. “We need an element of modesty here,” he said. “In San Francisco, there’s a tradition of grand ambitions. And I think we need, rather than promoting a grand vision, we should … let nature take its course while not going off the rails.”

    The New Light Is Bad There’s something off about LED bulbs — which will soon be, thanks to a federal ban, the only kind you can buy.
    https://nymag.com/strategist/article/led-light-bulbs-investigation.html
    What Nelson had discovered is that LEDs are not good or bad but more like weird. The finickiness reflects the fundamental nature of the product. The LED bulb is the shape of an old lightbulb, and it fits into a lightbulb socket, and it gives off light, but it’s not so much a lightbulb as a lightbulb emulator. What it is is a computer.

    Woman who survived Pennsylvania factory explosion said falling into vat of liquid chocolate saved her life
    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/survivor-pennsylvania-chocolate-factory-speaks-out-saved-life/
    A woman pulled alive from the rubble of a Pennsylvania chocolate factory after an explosion that killed seven co-workers says flames had engulfed the building, and her arm, when the floor gave way beneath her. That might have been the end, if she hadn't fallen into a vat of liquid chocolate. The dark liquid extinguished her blazing arm, but Patricia Borges wound up breaking her collarbone and both of her heels. She would spend the next nine hours screaming for help and waiting for rescue as firefighters battled the inferno and choppers thumped overhead at the R.M. Palmer Co. factory.

    https://www.chron.com/news/local/article/san-antonio-airtag-shooting-17871230.php
    A San Antonio man is not expected to face charges after his car was stolen and a confrontation with the suspected thief ended in fatal gunfire on Wednesday, March 29, police said. The man's vehicle was stolen from his Northside home on Wednesday afternoon, police said. But by using an Apple AirTag, he was able to track his truck down to a shopping center on the Southeast Side in the 3200 block of Southeast Military Drive. SAPD spokesperson Nick Soliz said the man called police to report his vehicle as stolen, but did not wait for police to arrive before attempting to confront the suspected car thief around 4 p.m.
