Great piece by Emma, worth your time today as a reminder of how many low-lying areas in Chapel Hill, Carrboro and elsewhere in central NC are still working their way back from the flooding at the start of July. ⬇️
July 6’s flooding of Bolin Creek damaged many Chapel Hill properties, including the cooperatively-owned Exchange Pool.
Still closed to the public, they’ve turned to the community to raise the funds needed for repairs.

Almost a year ago we had to say goodbye to Aspen, our dog of many years. While there is no replacing a pet that becomes a close part of your life and family, we decided it was time, and we wanted Willow to have a sister again. We hope she approves.

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.
New report shows that NIH grants fueled $95 billion in economic activity and 407,782 jobs in 2024.
That's not to mention the countless lives that biomedical research has saved.
Show me a better investment than that.

NEW: The United States has now seen dozens of human bird flu cases this year, all of them mild—until now.
A severe case is significant because bird flu has previously been associated with severe illness in other countries, including outbreaks that resulted in death in up to 50 percent of cases.
