As deaths mount, New Mexico’s border counties and state agencies have been unprepared for the task of finding and collecting migrants’ bodies — or unwilling to tackle it.

🐟 This is one of the weirder charts in my collection of examples: a set of fish icons to compare funds.

I use it when I talk about visual variables. This chart uses SIZE as a visual variable in 15 different ways, to show 15 different aspects of a fund.

1/4
A stylized infographic features fish illustrations to visually represent different investment profiles. Each fish encodes multiple financial characteristics. The fins on its back indicate the region, distinguishing among the Americas, Asia, the European Union, and Africa & the Middle East, as well as whether the market is emerging or developed. The shape of the tail represents the company's market capitalization—small, medium, or large. The size of the fish's eye reflects its performance, defined as the current return as a percentage of its historical maximum. The contour of the fish's body conveys investment style, such as value, core, or growth. Finally, the shape and position of the fish's mouth and side fin signal the sector classification: cyclical (like materials and financials), sensitive (like energy and technology), or defensive (such as healthcare and utilities). A legend on the right explains the full visual grammar, mapping each fish attribute to its financial meaning.

Five years into COVID, the disproportionate impact of the virus has flipped.

In 2020, about half of deaths were among Hispanics and 38% were among whites.

Last year, 23% were Hispanic and 63% were white.

Experts blame differing attitudes about vaccination. www.texastribune.org/2025/05/01/t...
Weary from COVID deaths, Hispanic Texans embraced vaccines. It saved their lives.
In the deadly summer of 2020, Hispanics in Texas were half of all COVID-19 deaths, spurring many to vaccinate. Today, in a startling flip, Hispanics make up less than a quarter of deaths from the dise...

...and at almost the same time, we published an interactive tool for looking up the recently published ratings for any public school campus or district in Texas. www.texastribune.org/2025/04/24/t...
Texas school districts got their first A-F grades in five years. See how your school did here.
The Texas Education Agency released the 2022-23 school year ratings on Thursday after a 19-month legal battle over how those ratings are calculated.

2022-23 school year data released this morning shows that school ratings declined after the state changed its rating thresholds.
1 in 5 Texas schools got a D or F rating under new performance standards
Failing grades for districts were made public for the first time since 2019. They showed schools with the poorest students were more likely to get a low score.
