It’s the classic “evil werewolf lawyer curler” trope!
In the "Amusing #MilanoCortina2026 Commentators" dep't: One gent just described a curling competitor as "A lawyer by day..." And then what? He turns into a curler by night? Or when the moon is full? And what if he's "pure at heart?" (Or more interestingly, what if he *isn't?*) 😏

The second reported endangered North Atlantic right whale death this year and it isn't even March. A 3-year-old female.
For context, scientists think these animals can live until at least 70, but human activities kill them so often before that it's uncertain.

It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Antonino Zichichi.
A pioneer of CERN’s experimental programme in the 1950s and the driving force behind numerous experiments, he was one of the most influential figures in high-energy physics.
