Desecration of Catholic Churches Across U.S. Leaves Congregations Shaken - WSJ
Catholic institutions from Boston to Florida reported more than half a dozen attacks on church property, including statues of Jesus and the Virgin Mary, between July 10 and 16.
A natural progression when law enforcement, police and prosecutors, abdicate their responsibility to maintain order.

Not Satisfied With Just Having Summers Off, Teachers Push For Fall, Winter, Spring - The Babylon Bee
Studies have shown teachers are the laziest people on the planet, only working nine months and doing absolutely nothing for three months of the year. What’s more, when they do work, teachers wander into school at 7 and go home at 2, having done nothing all day but press play on Bill Nye the Science Guy VHS tapes.

half of all 1-year-olds drink fruit juice (fruit without the healthy part, also known as sugar), and nearly two-thirds of children drink at least one sugary beverage a day
Yikes!
The new document crucially excludes increasingly popular low-carbohydrate options that appear to be giving formerly obese and unhealthy people a new lease on life — ketogenic, paleolithic, and candida diets that are well-attested in terms of their effectiveness and feature in many recent studies that the new guidelines document ignores.
That’s my experience.

Book Review: Richest Man in Babylon 📚
July 20,2020Many years ago, my Dad gave me a pamphlet summary of this book. Until recently, I thought that was the extent of the book. I listened to a podcast on my morning walk last week and realized there was more to the story. So I picked up a copy. It should be noted that since the book is so old, it’s no longer bound by copyright laws. There are tons of versions, so do your research before purchasing a copy.
The book is a set of parables written in the 1920s by an American author named George S. Clason. Set in the ancient city of Babylon, Clason uses various characters to share his baseline financial knowledge. I hesitate to accept fully the principles of the book because I don’t know anything about Clason as a person. I did take comfort and give further weight to his words given the popularity of the book and its enduring nature, a rare quality in the realm of person finance publications.
This is a good book to add to your study of personal finance. It’s not the final word on the subject, but it offers several good planks as readers build their own financial plan.
Would I recommend: YES
