A giant in the field of animal conservation and a champion of the elephant 🐘
Iain Douglas-Hamilton, a world-renowned expert on elephants who was one of the first to study their social behavior in the wild and dedicated his later years to fight poaching, has died at 83. He was one of the most visible advocates for protecting the animal, and founded Save the Elephants.

Today’s word tasting note is on “quick.”
I’m reading the autobiography of Geddy Lee, and so I’m listening to even more music by Rush than I usually do. And on Moving Pictures—the classic album that includes “Tom Sawyer,” “Limelight,” and “YYZ”—there’s one song that always quickens my pulse, 1/18

Inside Trump’s Atlantic City Mobbed-Up Empire
