Four percent of the sand on Normandy beaches is shrapnel that has been broken down over the decades into sand-sized chunks. See the smooth sphere? That's shrapnel, sanded down to a smooth, microscopic ball. #WW2 #HISTORY

This looks interesting, from a co-author of mine, tracking 45 years of NOAA led surveys. “Results indicated a higher-than-expected number of significant shifts to the north for 80 of the most frequently intercepted fish species. “

Anyone involved with US fisheries management should always read Charlie Witek. You may or may not always agree with him, but he’s more informative than anything you read in a saltwater fishing magazine.

Only one logical conclusion we can reach from this data: Bigfoot simply loves chilling with bears. They’re hanging out, drinking some beers, and listening to their favorite classic rock albums.

I got through my writers block today by listening to…Motley Crue. Bc my wife mentioned them with a GIF. So I listened to the soundtrack from The Dirt. And could write. My snotty hair metal hating 80s punk HS self is very disappointed in adult me.

A lot of historic albums came out in 1967. Sargeant Pepper. The debut album by the Doors. “Are you experienced” is the best and most influential.

Cute that the Marlins wanna offer a craft beer day, when this is the absolute worst ballpark in the country for having anything other than generic pilners. You cannot even find a Sierra Nevada. Stella Artois is as “good” as it gets on normal days. FIX IT.

Gift 🎁 link 🔗 Economists have solutions to these issues that can both address the public welfare concerns AND do it in ways that lessen the regulatory burden. Myself and other NOAA economists suggest them all the time to improve efficiency. Problem is, policymakers often don’t want to hear it.
