This week’s winning entries are in and there is so much weasel related news to discuss.

I am a bit ahead of myself on tomorrow’s competition so I decided to take this moment to link up a couple of articles that might keep you occupied for today. In the failing our children slowly section comes this article about some California schools receiving “bathrooms in a box” as an emergency measure for [...]

This week’s winning submissions cover a broad spectrum of topics from the heath care industry and medical pay for doctors to the war between Israel and Hamas (and in some respects the rest of the Arab world with rockets entering Israel from both Lebanon and Gaza; rockets that were manufactured elsewhere and smuggled in). The [...]
