The bird above is not your typical charismatic species. It’s no bald eagle, no peregrine falcon. It’s a groundbird known as the lesser prairie-chicken that lives in the southern Great Plains.

What’s the opposite of a “bear hug”? That was the phrase often used to describe President Joe Biden’s approach to Israel since the October 7, 2023, attacks: publicly and enthusiastically backing Israel, particularly when it comes to its wider regional conflict with Iran and its proxies, while quietly trying to restrain Israel’s actions in Gaza. […] Read more ›

You probably either know someone who needs hearing aids, or you’ll need them some day yourself.
