    Pesticides Are Killing the World’s Soils
    https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/pesticides-are-killing-the-worlds-soils/
    The fact that the EPA relies on a species that literally may never touch soil in its entire life to represent the thousands of species that live or develop underground offers a disturbing glimpse of how the U.S. pesticide regulatory system is set up to protect the pesticide industry instead of species and their ecosystems.

    Employees Are Quitting Instead of Giving Up Working From Home

    And for Twidt, there’s also the notion that some bosses, particularly those of a generation less familiar to remote work, are eager to regain tight control of their minions. “They feel like we’re not working if they can’t see us,” she said. “It’s a boomer power-play.”

    NEW STUDY DEBUNKS EVOLUTIONARY THEORY EXPLAINING MALE AND FEMALE BODIES
    https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/male-female-body-evolution
    If a transition to farming was responsible for changes in sex phenotypes, the researchers would have expected to see genetic variations associated with all of those traits become more or less common over the 3,000 years. But only one variation out of the 3,000 variations in the human genome linked to those five traits became significantly more common during that time period, at least in the population of the United Kingdom: the variation associated with higher body fat in females.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — A key Democratic senator says he will not vote for the largest overhaul of U.S. election law in at least a generation, defying his party and the White House and virtually guaranteeing the failure of the legislation after a near party-line approval in the House.

    The state of Alabama took his gun away. When authorities gave it back, he shot and killed his wife.
    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/crime-courts/state-alabama-took-his-gun-away-when-authorities-gave-it-n1269234
    Late one night in February 2019, a 31-year-old woman in a troubled marriage was rushed to an emergency room in a Birmingham, Alabama, suburb, with a gunshot wound in her upper right arm. "He shot me," Megan Montgomery told doctors, according to an investigative report obtained exclusively by NBC News. By "he," she meant her husband, a local police officer named Jason McIntosh. Police took her husband’s pistol away. Nine months later, the state’s top law enforcement agency gave it back, despite pending domestic violence charges and an active protective order. Just 16 days after that, he used the gun to shoot and kill her during another late-night dispute.

    Audit confirms findings of FOX 13 investigation into public school with ties to polygamous sect
    https://www.fox13now.com/news/fox-13-investigates/audit-confirms-findings-of-fox-13-investigation-into-public-school-with-ties-to-polygamous-religion
    The Utah State Charter School Board is following up on a FOX 13 investigation into a public school that has ties to a polygamous religious group. The findings of a staff audit have left the board asking the same serious questions raised by our reporting since December. Vanguard Academy in West Valley City continues to receive millions of dollars in public funds, despite the fact that its students and teachers almost exclusively belong to the same polygamous religious organization known as the Kingston group, or Davis County Cooperative Society. Public schools are not allowed to discriminate on the basis of race or religion, thanks to the separation of church and state established in the United States Constitution. Former Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff has referred to the Kingstons as "an organized-crime family," due to its members' roles in the Washakie Renewable Energy fraud case.
