Closed newspapers in Wyoming and South Dakota are saved as buyers swoop in
A dozen newspapers in Wyoming and South Dakota are set to publish again after buyers stepped in to keep the communities from becoming news deserts where little or no local media remains.

Happy Fifth Gotcha Day to Izzy!
On July 11, 2020, we adopted a very scared spaniel who had spent three months in a high kill shelter in South Carolina raising her four puppies, and then being spayed and treated for heartworms. When she was transported from South Carolina to Washington, she was so scared that she didn't want to leave the crate she had ridden in. Then she didn't want to get out of our car when we got to our house. I had to carry her up the front steps to our hou…

Three of the four are Black women.
As is often the case, racism and misogyny skewed these women’s interactions with police, hospitals—even the media.
All had their mugshots splashed across local media outlets, for example,
and their pregnancy losses turned into crime stories with salacious headlines.
Reporting in Ohio claimed Watts had “clogged” her toilet …

The Faint Object Camera (FOC) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) acquired high-resolution, spatially resolved polarimetric images of nearby Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) in the near ultraviolet (near-UV) band.

In this paper, we finalize the publication of near-UV imaging polarimetry of AGNs in the HST/FOC archiv…

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz says Democrats need to take a page from Donald Trump’s own playbook.
“Maybe it’s time for us to be a little meaner,” the former vice presidential hopeful said during a speech at the South Carolina Democratic Party’s annual convention in Columbia, South Carolina.
“Maybe it’s time for us to be a little more fierce because we have to ferociously push back on this.”
“When it’s a bully like Donald Trump, you bully the s--t out of him,” Walz added
