‘Muhammad’ cracks top 10 names for baby boys in New York City

https://thepostmillennial.com/muhammad-cracks-top-10-names-for-baby-boys-in-new-york-city

Excerpt:

For the first time, Muhammad cracked the top ten list of most popular boy names in New York City. This comes after the name was found to be the most popular in England and Wales for 2023.

Muhammad was tied for the ninth spot in the top 10, according to a report from the New York Post. It was one of the two names to break the top 10 list for the first time ever. When the name topped the list for England and Wales, many pointed to policies on immigration that have allowed many immigrants from Arab countries to settle in the UK.

Dylan also entered the top 10 names for the first time ever alongside Muhammad. The outlet reported that data from the Health Department also showed some trends of people naming their children after mythological characters. Ares, as well as Areuses, were born in the Big Apple in 2023. In addition to this, the “gender-neutral” name Sage grew in popularity. Maximus, Bernard, and Harriet are also growing in popularity.

Muhammad, which means “praiseworthy” or “commendable” in Arabic has grown in popularity since the late 1900s. The spelling has multiple alternatives, but the one on the top 10 list is the same spelling that comes from Muhammad, who is the founder of Islam.

Feral Hog Population is Surging in the City of Kyle, Texas

Excerpt:

Another Texas city is feeling the wrath of an invasive and highly destructive species. The City of Kyle, located just about 20 miles south of downtown Austin is dealing with an “increased presence” of feral hogs. On Tuesday, officials said the Kyle Parks and Recreation Department is actively working within its feral hog trapping contract to devise the best strategy for the removal of the wild pigs. “The city is also exploring additional proactive solutions to mitigate the impact of feral hogs on public land as well as our local ecosystems,” officials said in a statement.

How nice. They are under a contract for trapping. (Picture of trap used at link.)

So here’s yet another prediction for you. I am a hog hunter and I have studied the hog problem for a long time now. Sounders don’t stay together like the wildlife biologists say they do. You can’t trap them all – I don’t care what the university-trained wildlife biologists are telling you. Boars often run alone because they fight each other when they are together. Sows may be with a lot of other sows, or they may run with one or two. Feral hogs are not like human family units. Please don’t anthropomorphize them. You’re making a mistake and also showing how ignorant you are of hog behavior. This isn’t like Wilbur in Charlotte’s Web. Even the sows fight each other from time to time.

The city won’t fix this problem by trying to trap them. There aren’t enough traps. The trappers are too expensive. You don’t have the money for all of this. If you do this, it must be combined with lethal removal, i.e., hunting. No, not hunting by paid police shooters. There aren’t enough of them. Besides, they need to be locking down the border anyway.

I mean getting hunters after them. $5 per head won’t be enough to get the right amount of interest. You may have to wait for children to get gored by boars with tusks. And your city council is going to have to revisit that whole issue of firearms being discharged within city limits. I know you have such an ordinance because all cities do.

This problem will get fixed, but only when enough people get hurt, enough ranches get destroyed, and city council gets replaced with new members.

Need to kill the hogs traps are so whatever./s
