NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament Semifinals 2019
Good Upsets! UConn (hard to be an underdog when you’re seeded #1)! Oregon (a genuine surprise)! Showdowns tonight. I’ll be watching Baylor/Oregon.

Self Regulation
Oh yeah. This sooo works. The Jungle – Upton Sinclair “Bubbly Creek” is an arm of the Chicago River, and forms the southern boundary of the yards: all the drainage of the square mile of packing houses empties into it, so that it is really a great open sewer a hundred or two feet wide. …

A Chink In The Wall
