Today in the death of expertise: someone asked me about the pronunciation of a common English word, I said "All major dictionaries say so-and-so," they replied "That's what I thought, but a friend found a YouTube video where a non-native-speaking winemaker says something totally different."

A California woman, Jessinya Mina, 22, was fatally shot by her 2 year-old in Fresno, California.
Her boyfriend, Andrew Sanchez, 18, was arrested for child endangerment and criminal storage of a firearm, both felonies.
Mina had another child, an 8-month-old infant.
Tragic.

I really don't get this sign. What's wrong with "Do not feed birds"? Are pigeons _so_ distinct? Is there a danger people might think that while pigeons are verboten, feeding quail is just dandy?
Also the comma after _pigeons_ is particularly grating to me.

Old news that's new to me. Never learned this bit of history. Wonder why...? P.S. - already cancelled my Wapo sub, but it was prepaid for the year, so I still have months left to mine it for random interesting things like this! #statueofliberty #blackhistory #slavery
