The study also determined where the big cats live. Their densest populations are in coastal forests in Humboldt and Mendocino counties, while they’re least dense in the high desert east of the Sierra Nevadas in Inyo County. “The Central Valley and portions of the Mojave Desert have no mountain lions,” Dellinger told the Times. Mountain lions are under consideration for threatened status. The California Fish and Game Commission is expected to rule on the issue later this year.

Yet for some inexplicable reason the progressives are turning into ‘bitter clingers.’ Looks good on them It’s interesting to note that the majority of my friends find President-Elect Donald Trump offensive. Over the Christmas Season I was asked numerous times by friends and acquaintances what I thought about Donald Trump.

And I took a good run at them in efforts to explain the concept of ‘creative destruction,’ an idea initially conceived by Joseph Schumpeter in 1942, that postulates...

President Obama has wrapped up his tour of Africa. It was notable, insofar as that word can be applied to the trip, for his somewhat condescending and neo-colonial lecture to his hosts on the need to ease up on the old homophobia.
