Mayor Malcolm Duncan Jr. told the Waco Tribune-Herald that there may be more animals euthanized at first as the city and the society go through “learning curves.” How many animals have to die for your “learning curve?” Dozens? Hundreds?
Not only will animals die, but people will also lose their jobs.
After two viewings of “2016: Obama’s America”, the new film by Dinesh D’Souza, I want to summarize and offer my thoughts to those of you who either don’t have time to watch or are unable to (the movie is not offered in all theaters).
Many people don’t even walk out the door before letting friends and random strangers know…

Bill Clinton delivered a 48-minute stemwinder to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night that was so mesmerizing even Republicans praised it. But after the huzzahs for Clinton fade, save a little nod of affirmation for Sister Simone Campbell, executive director of NETWORK, a Roman Catholic social justice group.

But playing intramural ultimate Frisbee with her? I wasn’t totally convinced. In the mad scramble to meet the three-woman requirement for our “Boom Goes Da Dynamite” ultimate team, we found a quidditch player, an intramural referee and, yes, my girlfriend, who has never played ultimate Frisbee in her life.
Fellow students, we all remember a time when we checked Facebook five times a day, each time taking 30-45 minutes scrolling through other people’s statuses and photos. Some of us have proudly narrowed that down to two times a day now. And only for about 10 minutes each (hopefully).
