PEACHTREE CITY — On August 7, the Peachtree City community will be celebrating the lives of purple heart recipients and their hard work and compassion on its first Purple Heart Day.
Since the previous city council meeting where the date was declared, many members of the community have been recognized for their service not only in the community, but in the Armed Forces. Purple Heart Day provides a day of celebration and recognition for those who risked their lives for the betterment of the country.
Although the declaration was made recently, the plans for a formal celebration remained postponed simply because of the recent establishment of the city as a "Purple Heart City". This did not, however, stop the city from doing something to recognize the veterans in their community.
According to the city clerks office, Peachtree City will have two flag raising ceremonies on Friday, August 5 at 4:00 p.m. to symbolize the historic recognition for the city. The Gateway Bridge is also planned to be lit purple in recognition of the Purple Heart Day.
Stacey Collins of the Clerk's office provided information on the events as well as how members of the community can attend.
"The first flag raising will happen at city hall at the flag pole. Veterans are welcome to attend. The second flag raising will happen at the Southeast corner of Hwy 54/74 on the same side of city hall," Collins said.
Veterans are welcomed to attend both flag ceremonies and celebrate along with their comrades as the community recognizes members of the military who made a difference and continue to make a difference in Peachtree City.
According to the Disabled Veteran National Foundation (DVNF), National Purple Heart Day, which takes place the same day, is a day that was created to give back to the active military who dedicated their lives to serving their country.
"It's a day for Americans to remember and honor the men and women who bravely represented their country and were wounded or killed," the foundation wrote.
The Purple Heart is awarded in the name of the President and is recognized as the oldest and highest ranked award received by a member of the active military.
The story of the Purple Heart dates back to August 7, 1782 when George Washington stabled the Badge of Military Merit.
According to Joshua Schick, a curator at The National World War II Museum, during this time, it was rare that soldiers were awarded prestigious recognition, as most awards were given to members oft he aristocratic community. Washington felt the need to encourage his troops by making an award for valor and meritorious service.
Washington presented the Badge of Military Merit, which was made of a cloth purple heart and was intended to be worn over the left breast, to three sergeants in his army. Sadly, the badge was forgotten for about 150 years after its establishment, and in all that time, only three were known to be issues.
The medal was not revised again until World War I, when the only medal that was awarded was known to be the Medal of Honor. It was not until 1932 that US Army Chief of Staff Douglas MacArthur picked up the old Badge of Military Merit and gave it the name of the Purple Heart. It was not until 1942 that the Purple Heart would not just be awarded to members of the Army, but to all members of the Armed Forces in recognition of their valor and sacrifice.
As for the city of Peachtree City, the city plans to continue to celebrate the occasion and shine a light on its citizens who have rightfully earned this honor.

Antioxidant activity is required for the protective effects of cyclophilin A against oxidative stress.
@article{Kim2015AntioxidantAI, title={Antioxidant activity is required for the protective effects of cyclophilin A against oxidative stress.}, author={Kiyoon Kim and In Kyung Oh and Kyung-Sik Yoon and Joohun Ha and Insug Kang and Wonchae Choe}, journal={Molecular medicine reports}, year={2015}, volume={12 1}, pages={ 712-8 } }
Cyclophilin (Cyp) belongs to a group of proteins that have peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity. CypA is the major cellular target for the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A and mediates its actions. Previous studies have demonstrated that CypA has diverse cellular functions and have suggested that CypA may function as an antioxidant. The present study investigated the antioxidant activity of CypA and its association with PPIase activity. The purified CypA/wild-type (WT) and…

Sophia Huang Xueqin is a journalist who has been involved in several #MeToo campaigns to provide support and assistance to survivors of sexual assault and harassment in China.
Sophia Huang Xueqin was arrested in the Chinese city of Guangzhou on 19 September last year, the day before she was planning to leave China for the UK to study for a master's degree at the University of Sussex. Sophia's family only received the notice of her arrest in October, more than a month after their arrest. It is believed that she was subjected to "residential surveillance at a designated location" (RSDL) (指定居所监视居住) for more than six months without access to her family members and lawyers of her choice prior to being formally detained at Guangzhou City No 1 Detention Centre.
Her detention is believed to be related to weekly gatherings she attended for almost a year where the challenges faced by activists under the shrinking space of civil society was discussed.
Sophia was previously detained between October 2019 and January 2020 and charged with "picking quarrels and provoking trouble" after writing about the 2019 mass protests in Hong Kong.

Poland sees return of WWII-era hero
The remains of the man who lead the resistance against the Nazis in Warsaw are brought home.
WARSAW, Poland - The remains of the revered leader of a doomed 1944 revolt against Poland's Nazi occupiers were finally laid to rest yesterday in Warsaw, brought from the United States for a ceremonial funeral as part of 60th anniversary observances of the uprising.
Antoni Chrusciel was chief of the Home Army resistance movement in Nazi-occupied Warsaw and commanded the thousands of largely teenage insurgents who rose up against the Germans on Aug. 1, 1944.
He led 63 days of fighting, until the resistance gave way to the better-armed enemy. Some 200,000 Poles, including 20,000 insurgents, died in the uprising, and the city was turned to rubble.
"He was - and remains - one of our national heroes," Warsaw Mayor Lech Kaczynski said as Chrusciel's remains were interred at the city's Powazki military cemetery.
Chrusciel was captured and held in prison camps in Germany until being liberated by U.S. troops.
Instead of returning to communist Poland after the war, he chose to live in exile in Britain and moved to the United States in 1956, settling in Washington D.C. He died there in 1960 at age 65.
"World War II expelled him from his own country," Kaczynski told a crowd of more than 1,000 people, including family members and war veterans, gathered in the wooded cemetery.
Zbigniew Scibor-Rylski, head of the Warsaw Insurgents' Union, a veterans association, said the 1989 fall of communism and rebirth of democracy in Poland were Chrusciel's dream, one he never got to see.
"The ideals you struggled for have become reality," he said at the funeral. "Poland is free from foreign domination."
Ten Polish army soldiers fired three volleys in salute as the remains of Chrusciel and his wife, Waleria, were lowered into the ground.
Chrusciel's two daughters - Wanda and Jadwiga - brought their parents' ashes to Warsaw on Wednesday.
"This burial is a symbol of good hope for Poland," Jadwiga Chrusciel said. "Our father always had hope that something would change in Poland and he would be able to return."
The funeral was preceded by a Roman Catholic Mass at the garrison church in the Old Town, the scene of most of the fighting during the uprising.
Secretary of State Colin Powell and German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder plan to join Polish leaders in the main observance of the uprising tomorrow and will deliver some of the event's key speeches.
Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski urged Schroeder to use his speech to distance himself from German groups demanding the restitution of ancestral property in Poland that ethnic Germans lost when they fled or were expelled at the end of the war.
Schroeder assured Poles in an interview published yesterday that his government would "never support" those claims by some German groups. "No one making such claims will ever find an open ear or support anywhere."
Elsewhere yesterday, hundreds of Warsaw Uprising veterans attended a ceremony at City Hall that included readings of wartime poems and patriotic songs.

Board declines to name farm acquisition panelist
PRINCETON - The Board of Selectmen declined to name a representative to a steering committee that will be exploring the possible acquisition of the former Fieldstone Farm.
Tom Sullivan, a member of the Princeton Land Trust, said that the land trust and the Massachusetts Audubon Society jointly signed an agreement that will give the two entities until June 2016, to acquire the 300-acre farm, with the purpose of preserving all or most of it.
Mr. Sullivan said the farm was identified in 2014 as a targeted property for preservation, and the agreement gives the land trust the opportunity to negotiate with the landowner directly. Massachusetts Audubon Society is involved since the farm abuts Wachusett Meadow, which is owned and operated by Mass. Audubon.
Mr. Sullivan said that while he had received an appraisal on the property, it was not finalized, and he did not want to disclose the figure. He said he expects to work with the town's Conservation Commission to apply for grants to help reduce the cost to the town.
"We are looking at between eight and ten buckets for funding," he said. "If we receive grants from the state, they will require participation from the town. And any plan we put together will require a large amount of private donations."
Mr. Sullivan said the land trust plans to file its first grant application by mid-July, and that the trust plans to hold at least one public forum to discuss the property's future. He indicated that there are approximately 20 acres of land that could be developed and he did not rule out a plan that included some development.
"We want this not to be a Princeton Land Trust project, but a Princeton project," he said. "We realize it is a big endeavor, but it is an excellent opportunity for the town."
Edith Morgan, chairman of the Board of Selectmen, said that the town has several big projects coming up and wants to consider the matter before naming someone to the steering committee.
"We just discussed having the selectmen not be on committees," she said.

It's early days, but Shake Shack likes what he sees so far from his drive-thru.
Over the past four months, the burger chain's six drive-thru restaurants have generated average weekly sales of more than $80,000, compared to a system-wide average of $76,000.
Executives said customers visit its drive-thru more often, and about half of visitors use the drive-thru in places that have it.
The results left the channel optimistic about the future of the format. Shake Shack opened its first drive-thru in December 2021 and plans to open more.
"We obviously want to be careful not to share too much data at this early stage, but we continue to be encouraged by the AUV potential as well as the long-term profit and return metrics we believe we can derive from this model. ," CEO Randy Garutti told analysts on Thursday, according to a transcript on financial services site Sentieo.
The 395-unit chain expects to have at least 10 drive-thrus open by the end of this year and between 20 and 25 next year. Garutti added that the format opens up new real estate opportunities for the chain, which started out as an urban concept but has focused much of its recent development on the suburbs.
Tempering the chain's enthusiasm for drive-thru is a challenge associated with building restaurants these days. The cost to build a drive-thru, for one, "is significantly higher than a normal Shack at the moment," Garutti said, adding that Shake Shack construction costs have increased by about 15% this year.
Construction also takes longer. Stores slated to open in 12 to 15 months are being pushed back to 15 to 18 months, Garutti said, noting delays for things like cold rooms and air conditioners. The drive-thru may take even longer due to the additional perm. "That's been the most frustrating thing," he said.
Drive-thru was a bright spot in an overall strong quarter for the New York-based chain. Same-store sales increased 10.1% year over year, boosted by a 7.8% increase in traffic. Sales in urban locations continued to rebound, up 19%, while suburban locations rose 3%.
Sales declined towards the end of the quarter and into July, however, which executives said was in line with normal summer trends. And the chain is still struggling with declining foot traffic in major cities.
"We believe our recovery would have been much stronger without mobility, namely the return to the office, urban transport and urban tourism stabilizing and, in some cases, reversing," said chief financial officer Katie Fogertey.
Lunch and dinner traffic in its key Midtown Manhattan market, for example, is still more than 40% below 2019 levels.
"Forty percent of our lunch guests just aren't there yet," Garutti said. "And you look at whether it's metro, mobility, tourism and other things, they just haven't come back to where they were."
Shake Shack also saw an expansion in its bottom line: operating margins at the restaurant level were 18.8% for the quarter, up more than 3 points from the first quarter and approaching its margins of 19.2% from a year ago.
And yet, the chain expects food and packaging costs to continue to rise through the end of the year. It will raise prices again – up to 5% to 7% – to keep pace. That would lift its year-over-year prices to 3% to 4% in the third and fourth quarters, Fogertey said.
"We wish we didn't have to, but it's really the minimum we need to do as we look at so many of our business's rising input costs," Garutti said. French fries in particular have seen record inflation, he said. "And while the beef has kind of leveled itself, it's leveled at a very high level."

JUNEAU — Citing her preference for a $3,000 Permanent Fund dividend, Rep. Gabrielle LeDoux, R-Anchorage, voted to reject a state operating budget approved by the House of Representatives in favor of a competing plan drafted by the Alaska Senate.
The act breaks the rules of the coalition House majority, which requires its members to vote together on the budget and on procedural votes, and LeDoux will be ejected from the majority.
"I know that there are going to be consequences for this vote, but I am willing to live with this decision," LeDoux said to House Speaker Bryce Edgmon, I-Dillingham.
Neither Edgmon nor House Rules Chairman Chuck Kopp, R-Anchorage, were immediately available for comment, but House majority spokesman Austin Baird confirmed that LeDoux will be removed from the majority.
Without LeDoux, the majority will include 24 of the House's 40 members.
LeDoux's vote brought unusual drama to what is ordinarily a mere procedural vote. The House approved its proposed operating budget in early April without a specific PFD amount. The proposal went to the Senate, where it was amended.
One of those amendments is the inclusion of a $3,000 Permanent Fund dividend paid according to a formula that has existed mostly unchanged in state law since 1982. Many lawmakers have begun questioning whether the state can still afford to pay dividends using that older formula, and the Senate budget — which includes a $1.2 billion deficit — does not say how that dividend will be paid.
"This budget has no means of financing the Permanent Fund (dividend). It's got a big hole in it," said Rep. Louise Stutes, R-Kodiak.
On Friday, House lawmakers voted to reject the Senate's changes. That sets the stage for the formation of a conference committee of six lawmakers, three from the House and three from the Senate, who will draft a compromise between the House and Senate budgets.
LeDoux was the lone dissenting vote.
"I think a lot of people weren't really pleased," she said after the floor session.
She said she began thinking about the vote after the Senate included a "full" dividend in its budget proposal. She told fellow members of her caucus before voting on the floor, she said.
Speaking on the floor, she said her constituents demand a statutory dividend, and the House budget does not contain that.
"This will probably be the only opportunity to vote for a full PFD," she said.
Rep. Tammie Wilson, R-North Pole and co-chair of the House Finance Committee, said that is not correct. While the House budget does not contain a dividend amount, she said it is still the House's intention to deal with it in separate legislation.
Other supporters of a statutory dividend said they also feel it will be dealt with as the conference committee process moves forward.
House Minority Leader Lance Pruitt, R-Anchorage, urged his members to reject the Senate budget and send the budget process to conference committee.
"We should have that conversation; we should talk about it," he said.
Asked whether she will now join the minority, LeDoux said she isn't sure.
"I haven't thought that far," she said.

The operation of the research reactor like the ones possessed by BATAN uses uranium as fuel. The uranium possess multiple times of the energy of crude oil with a volume of waste which far smaller compared to crude oil fuel of coal.
In the use of nuclear fule as explained, there is a remaining amount of uranium which could be re-utilized as a fuel for other types of reactors after going through fabrication.
BATAN conducts nuclear cycling of nuclear materials among others to reduce CO2 gas even though actually the volume of CO2 gas from the reactor is smaller compared to what is released from the use of coal, natural gas and crude oil.
Batan also cares about the problem of natural resources and environment occuring in the country. A number of researches and activities in nuclear science and technology in BATAN then are focussed in seeking solutions towards the issues of natural resources and the environment.
"The Issue of Water"
The ground water supply as a source of clean water in Indonesia which exists in the ground layers or in rocky layers under the surface of the ground is very limited. In fact the ground water also functions as a support for the burden of the surface of the earth.
Nuclear technology, specifically in the use of radioisotope for hydrology, is present as a nsolution in exploration of ground water in regions experiencinmg draught. With the technology, it could be identified in which areas have the potency to possess more water compared to other areas in the same region.

Re: National handgun freeze key feature of federal Liberals' new firearm-control bill, May 30, 2022.
I don't necessarily agree with everything the Conservative Party is saying. But I am very unhappy with the gun laws that the Liberals are trying to implement. Taking guns away from law-abiding citizens will do absolutely nothing with the gun crime that is going on.
There has been no gun crime with guns from law-abiding, legitimate gun owners.
This is a political tactic to get re-elected. This will not stop gang-related shootings with the guns that are smuggled in from the States and are scrubbed from their serial numbers.
This law is just removing guns from law-abiding citizens and will do absolutely nothing about gun crime in Canada. It is absolutely ridiculous.

Monkeypox warning: Virus outbreak increasing within communities warns WHO amid case spike
OUTBREAKS of endemic diseases such as monkeypox and lassa fever are becoming more persistent and frequent, the World Health Organisation's emergencies director, Mike Ryan, warned on Wednesday.
Monkeypox: Health agency urges people to look out for symptoms
The WHO on Wednesday confirmed more than 550 monkeypox cases across 30 countries as the virus continues to spread across the globe. Monkeypox presents with fever, an extensive characteristic rash and usually swollen lymph nodes.
It is important to distinguish monkeypox from other illnesses such as chickenpox, measles, bacterial skin infections, scabies, syphilis and medication-associated allergies.
As climate change contributes to rapidly changing weather conditions like drought, animals and humans are changing their food-seeking behaviour.
As a result, diseases that typically circulate in animals are increasingly jumping into humans, he said.
He added: "Unfortunately, that ability to amplify that disease and move it on within our communities is increasing - so both disease emergence and disease amplification factors have increased."
Virus outbreak increasing within communities warns WHO amid case spike
The incubation period of monkeypox can range from 5 to 21 days.
The febrile stage of illness usually lasts one to three days with symptoms including fever, intense headache, lymphadenopathy (swelling of the lymph nodes), back pain, myalgia (muscle ache), and an intense asthenia (lack of energy).
The febrile stage is followed by the skin eruption stage, lasting for two to four weeks.
Lesions evolve from macules (lesions with a flat base) to papules (raised firm painful lesions) to vesicles (filled with clear fluid) to pustules (filled with pus), followed by scabs or crusts.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the sudden appearance of monkeypox in multiple countries across the world indicates the virus has been spreading undetected for some time outside the West and Central African nations where it is usually found.
The virus may have been transmitted for months or years undetected though investigations are ongoing and there are clear no answers yet, according to Dr Rosamund Lewis, the WHO's monkeypox technical lead.
Dr Lewis said during a news conference in Geneva on Wednesday: "We don't really know whether it's too late to contain. What WHO and all member states are trying to do is prevent onward spread."
Contact tracing and isolating patients who have monkeypox are crucial to stopping the spread, she said.

However, the WHO has been monitoring monkeypox in Africa for five decades and deaths are reported on the continent every year, Lewis said.
More than 70 deaths from monkeypox have been reported across five African countries in 2022, she said.

Dive Brief:
- BelVita, a breakfast biscuit owned by Mondelez International, has doubled it's global annual sales since launching in the U.S. in 2012 and stolen market share from American cereal makers, according to an article in the Chicago Tribune.
- When belVita launched in the U.S., it was able to capitalize on consumers' waning interest in breakfast cereals and demand for on-the-go options. Health and wellness claims, like slow-release carbohydrates that provide four hours of energy, also resonated with consumers.
- BelVita is now Mondelez's fifth best-selling brand in the U.S., recently surpassing Triscuit and Trident in annual sales.
Dive Insight:
BelVita, a European style breakfast biscuit developed in France, has captured the appetites and minds of American consumers. It came on the market in 2012, just as consumers were starting to rethink their morning bowl of cereal and milk. A combination of good timing and smart marketing has made belVita a leader in the breakfast space.
Changing consumer preferences and needs in the morning have been key contributing factors to belVita's success. People were already starting to trade their cereal bowls for granola bars, so the swap to a biscuit wasn't too great. In addition, belVita offered health claims like slow-releasing carbs, which appealed to consumers more concerned about their health. Last, but not least, the European biscuit is an easy grab-and-go option, a quality important to more consumers racing out the door in the morning.
Cereal makers have had trouble countering the threat belVita brought to the breakfast table when it entered the U.S. market in 2012. By the time belVita was chipping away at their share of the breakfast plate, they started scrambling to offer alternatives.
Cereal giant Kellogg's launched a similar product under the Nutri-Grain label and General Mills did the same with its Nature Valley brand. Post Holdings and Quaker Oats have since also introduced breakfast biscuit options.
Mondelez, was smart to market it's newcomer product as a healthy alternative to breakfast cereal. Touting whole grains and fiber content, not to mention on-the-go convenience, helped belVita get consumers' attention.
Some nutritionists, though, are not on board with the health claims. The blueberry variety has 13 grams of sugar per serving, which is more than a bowl of Frosted Flakes. There perhaps is a good reason why it's sold in the cookie/cracker aisle of the supermarket.
Manufacturers can look at belVita as a lesson in the importance of knowing your customer.
BelVita's success is another affirmation that cereal isn't the breakfast powerhouse it used to be. From 2009 to 2016, cereal sales decreased 17%. In 2017, they fell a further 2.3%. This isn't the end of the road, but rather, a transition. More consumers now enjoy cereal as a treat or snack, rather than the way to start their day.

Now Interstate 37 is something more—a focus in a growing debate about how the Bay Area and California will respond to climate change and when politicians should spend the billions of dollars needed to deal with it.
Caltrans is studying a plan to expand a traffic-prone 10-mile highway at a cost of nearly half a billion dollars while it comes up with a long-term solution. But some advocates say they should skip this step while significant funding is available and do what all sides agree should eventually be done by lifting the road.
"The final project achieves both of these goals," said Warner Chabot, executive director of the San Francisco Estuary Institute, a nonprofit research group in Richmond. "Producing the largest climate adaptation, sea-level rise and wetland restoration project on the West Coast of North America, it solves the potentially unbearable traffic congestion and safety issues with a nature-based solution that meets the equity needs of thousands of travelers. That is the ultimate magic of the High Bridge."
The problem is finding the estimated $6-8 billion needed to build a high bridge before sea-level rise begins to flood regularly and cut the road by 2040, Caltrans predicted.
Originally opened as a toll road in 1928 in a formerly underwater area before settlers dived and drained the San Francisco Bay wetlands, the highway now suffers from flooding that has forced roads to close during tides and storms.
Highway advocates say there is a window of opportunity that may not reopen with a $100 billion state budget surplus and a recently passed $1 trillion federal infrastructure bill.
said Arianna Ricard, director of public policy and finance at the Sonoma Land Trust, a nonprofit conservation group. We do not know if we have another historical surplus in the budget. And then where will the money come from when it gets submerged? "
A group of Bay Area lawmakers called on Gov. Gavin Newsom and legislative leaders to allocate $6 billion to begin planning and building repairs to Interstate 37. The legislature returned from summer recess on Monday.
Officials from Caltrans and other project partners such as the Urban Transportation Commission — the Bay Area Transportation and Planning Funding Agency — are considering a temporary project to extend 10 miles of the highway from Sears Point in Sonoma County to Mare Island from two to as many as four lanes, with the addition of a motorway in every direction.
The 10-mile bottleneck can add nearly 70 minutes of additional travel time during morning rush hour and commute hours, according to Caltrans. There is no transit service along the trail. The Urban Transportation Commission estimates that delays result in approximately $85 million in economic losses each year.
Caltrans spokesperson Bart Ney said peak-hour travel times are expected to increase to five times the current level by 2045 if the highway is not expanded.
The $430 million project will require thousands of truckloads of packing in protected wetlands to expand the highway barrier. Caltrans is due to complete an environmental review of the project in the coming months with plans to start construction by 2025 and open new corridors by 2026.
Rebecca Long, director of legislative affairs for the Urban Transportation Commission, said all project partners agree that Interstate 37 will need to be replaced or moved before 2040. However, she said, this massive project still has to undergo extensive study and environmental review before the design is recommended. final, not to mention securing an estimated $6 billion to build it. Caltrans estimates that construction could take two decades or more to complete.
"This funding should come from the capital, Sacramento, and it will compete with all other climate-resilient projects nationwide," Long said. "It's not realistic to think that we can have all that money in the next two years. We don't think that's acceptable and members of the Bay Area delegation in Sacramento are not comfortable telling their constituents that, sorry you have to put up with unbreakable traffic conditions for the next 10 years" .
The four-lane highway will reduce travel time during peak congestion from 26 to 30 minutes and is estimated to reduce crashes by 14%, according to the commission.
To help pay for long-term repair and eventual expansion, Caltrans and project partners are proposing to start charging after the project expansion is complete.
The fee will also be used to provide similar funds for up to $250 million in state and federal grants. The legislature is considering a bill by state Senator Bill Dodd, D-NAPA, that would levy a fee of at least $1 but not more than tolls for two-axle vehicles on state-owned bridges in the Bay Area, not including the Bay Bridge. . The state bridge crossing fee is $7 but will rise to $8 in January 2025. Dodd could not be reached for comment.
While state agencies say the expanded highway will eventually be removed in favor of a raised bridge, U.S. Representative Jared Hoffman, whose district straddles the North Coast, said that statement "doesn't pass the straight-face test."
"No one is going to take down a new $500 million highway 15 years after it was built," said Hoffman, a Democrat who lives in San Rafael. "If you implement this project as they suggested, you will never get the bridge, this wetland complex will never be restored, and you will never get the multiple benefits that everyone loves about the final project. We just have to be honest about it."
Hoffman said he is urging state agencies to shift priorities to building the bridge, which he said could help the project compete for federal grants. However, he said there appears to be a reluctance on the part of state agencies to take on these large projects.
"A lot of our transportation planners have seen what happened to the high-speed rail and other projects, and there's the kind of defeatism and skepticism that says you can't really do big, bold projects anymore," Hoffman said. "So they kind of dusted off the game handbook from the '70s and tried to expand the highway."
Long said the expansion project would include other environmental benefits such as widening the Tulay Creek Bridge to allow more tidal impact that could help build wetlands and allow them to migrate as the ocean rises.
"Without the temporary project that brings transportation money to the table, there are no resources to do it," she said.
Tenth District Assemblyman Mark Levine, who represents Marin and southern Sonoma County, was among Bay Area legislators who called on the state to allocate $6 billion for the long-term project. While he said the expansion of the highway is not the right fix for Interstate 37 in the long run, he said there is still a lot of work to be done on the elevated highway proposal before it is ready for financing.
"I don't think the planning and resources are there to do the big dream plan in the near term to solve a huge problem for thousands of commuters every day," said Levine, a Democrat who lives in Greenbra.
Senator Mike McGuire, whose county includes Marin and the North Coast, said the state alone would not be able to pay for the high bridge. He said negotiations between local, state and federal officials are underway, but he did not say which project he believed should receive priority.
"The bottom line is this. North Bay commuters have been suffering for a long time," said McGuire, a Democrat who lives in Healdsburg. "Year after year, they sit on one of the worst commutes in the entire Bay Area and that is no longer acceptable. North Bay passengers deserve solutions, and that's what we're working through right now."
Environmental agencies and organizations view the bridge project as a way to allow up to 20,000 acres of wetland to be restored. San Francisco Bay shrank dramatically after the gold rush as settlers drained the wetlands and made way for roads, agricultural fields, and development.
A regional goal to restore about 100,000 of the 200,000 acres of lost wetlands has been in place since the late 1990s, with more than half of that goal completed.
About 82% of the San Pablo Bay wetlands crossed by Interstate 37 have been lost to development and drainage. However, this habitat is also one of the least developed along the bay, making it a prime location for completing a restoration goal, said Rijkaard of the Sonoma Land Trust.
"It's the biggest and best opportunity in the Bay Area to restore the tidal ecosystem on a landscape scale," Ricard said.
The highway expansion will require the state to get approval from regulators to obtain large amounts of sediment in protected state and federally protected wetlands, such as the San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge and the Napa Sonoma Marshes Wildlife Area. These are wetlands that are home to endangered species such as the salt marsh and railroad harvest rat in Ridgway.
Ann Morkel, who ran the US Fish and Wildlife Service's San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge from 2012 to 2020, wondered if the expanded project would be able to get approvals in time for construction in 2025, if that possible. The expansion project will require the acquisition of protected property and the permanent removal of wetland habitats. As a result, the state will have to create new wetlands elsewhere to make up for the losses, but Morkill said there aren't many areas left that aren't really affected.
"The idea of interpolation, I can't imagine it could ever be allowed and certainly not in time because of the dilution needed," she said. "You're talking about highly sensitive habitats and species."
The US Fish and Wildlife Service did not respond to requests for comment.
Craig Whitman, director of the Habitat Conservation Program at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, said the agency has engaged in discussions with project leaders. He said Caltrans's goal to start construction in 2025 could be possible with a "straightforward, well-planned and coordinated project," although that will be determined by what the final design will look like.
Kristina Toms, a scientist with the San Francisco Bay Water Quality Monitoring Board, said another concern about expanding the project is that it will compete for sediment used in wetland projects across the bay.
"Finding clean dirt is hard, and it's expensive," Toms said. "Sourcing is expensive, and moving it is expensive. There are a lot of competing needs for these materials across the region."
By raising the highway and eventually removing the berm, the project will essentially mitigate any impacts from the bridge's construction by allowing the wetlands to reconnect with the tides, Toms said. Restoration organizations are working to restore as much wetland habitat as possible before 2030 before rising oceans threaten to inundate them. By removing the highway, Toms said, the wetlands will be able to migrate north and provide more protection from flooding.
"The highway is a kind of barrier to what we call the strip swamps on the bay," she said. "The highway in its current formation makes it impossible for that ribbon marsh to migrate inland. This will be an important part of the story in North Bay as it responds to climate change."

Lions, bobcats, jaguars, tigers, and many other wild cat species dominate forests and jungles. The jaguar is considered among the most dangerous and deadliest predators in the Amazon Forest. On the other hand, the lion is dubbed the "King of the Jungle" for its huge and robust body, unparalleled strength, and impressive hunting skills. And the tiger ranks the largest among all cats on the planet. When it comes to the word "predators" of the jungle, wild cats will never miss the list. While various cat species are feared among the forest and other habitats for their heavy weights and hunting capabilities, there is not much said about dogs.
Dogs or canines may have wild dog species such as wolves and foxes, but their size, weight, and ability to impressively hunt their prey dwarfs compared to big cats. Huge dog breeds such as the Bernese mountain dog or St. Bernard are all breeds created and bred by humans from naturally existing canine species. On the other hand, cats have individual species, such as the tiger and the lion, that have bred and evolved on their own. So the question lingers, if there are big cats, why are there no big dogs? Below, we will find the answer to that and other fascinating facts!
If There Are Big Cats, Why Are There No Big Dogs?
The answer to that all goes down to one thing: hunting strategy. There are big cats, but there are no big dogs because of the difference in the two animals' hunting strategies. Big cats usually hunt alone, relying on a quick burst of speed and snaps from their claws to catch their prey. On the other hand, wild dogs hunt uniquely, relying on teamwork and collaboration to pursue prey over vast distances until it passes out. In this type of endurance competition, a larger physique is a liability because it takes more energy to move about and doesn't increase the chances of a kill.
All the huge dog breeds we see today being taken home as pets were generally formulated by man, created by cross-breeding natural and existing canine species. The original species that we know still lurk in the wild, such as wolves or dingos, are not big enough to topple and overpower massive cat creatures like lions or tigers. The large species of cats are all individual species that evolved naturally, increasing in size to adapt to the hunting opportunities and survival necessities in their environment.
There are no other natural canines that meet those criteria as well as the Big Cats. The timber wolf is the largest wolf, yet its stature pales compared to that of lions and tigers. The largest species of wolves can grow up to 137 pounds and 7 feet long, while tigers can reach 650 pounds and 12.5 feet in length.
How Do Cats and Dogs Hunt in the Wild?
Cats and dogs in the wild vary greatly when hunting their prey. Wild animals may induce fear in any mammal of flesh, even humans, but to survive an attack, you need to know which is hunting you first.
Felines rely on stealth and speed to survive, and canines have a high endurance level. Felines have acute, razor-sharp claws that may "snag" and drag down a fleeing animal. They can also disembowel their prey by shredding their victims with strong back claws. On the other hand, canines have blunt and rounded claws. In comparison, it's not particularly lethal. They utilize their jaws to break leg bones, harm muscle, torment, bleed out, and eventually weaken their prey to the point where they can attack.
Felines did bulk up as a result of their hunting style. A stronger leg coupled with its razor-sharp claws might cause more harm to their prey. Stronger limbs are also advantageous when they grapple and slash their prey. As a result, evolution preferred the stronger limb muscles. And to attach to a heavier body, stronger, bulkier limbs need stronger, bulkier shoulders. As a result, cats continued to grow in size until they hit a size sweet spot.
Consequently, felines pursue their prey when it is at full vigor, necessitating the addition of size and mass. Canines, in contrast, hurt and weaken their prey before killing at the appropriate time, and they don't necessarily need to be large.
Cat's Hunting Behavior
Have you ever noticed your cat stealthily stalking an insect or a lizard around your home? Or has your cat ever brought you a dead mouse or other dead critters they have hunted? There's no need to freak out, though. Cats are natural predatory hunters, whether in the wild or not. Furthermore, their unique, impressive hunting behavior sets them apart from other animals. Compared to other mammalian predators, big cats in the wild are known for their hunting ways and skills.
Depending on the prey they seek, felines use a number of different hunting strategies, with one being used most often – the stalk and pounce technique. In cats, this is a well-known strategy. The cat locates its prey at the first stride, then stalks it, gently approaching it in a ground stance. If the prey moves away, the cat gradually approaches it, matching its speed to that of the prey. They collect their hind paws behind them and prepare for the powerful take-off when they're ready to chase it down.
Dog's Hunting Behavior
The most distinguishing behavior of dogs, especially wolves, when hunting is that they hunt in packs. Unlike felines, they use collaborative teamwork to take down their prey.
The wolf pack splits up and encircles its victim when hunting huge prey. Wolves commonly bite the shoulders and sides of their prey. While some pack members pursue the prey from behind, others seize the creature by the nose. A wolf pack is more than just wolves foraging together. They're extremely complicated social groups with a clear hierarchy, social links, pack loyalty, and dominant pack leaders. Wolves may search for smaller prey on their own during peak prey seasons, but they will band together for safety and greater hunting success while hunting large and/or dangerous species. Members of the pack always benefit from it, and they frequently create very loyal social relationships with one another.
Hunger does not trigger a canine hunting drive. Hence, well-fed dogs hunt more effectively than starving dogs. Canine prey drive is triggered by moving creatures' sound, smell, or vision. Although hunting breeds have this intuition honed, even the most pampered domestic dog responds to the rustling of leaves, a leaping squirrel, or the scent of a bunny frozen in the shrubbery. The need to track and chase prey is as established in the canine mentality as feline hunting behavior is in the feline psyche. However, for the case of wild dogs such as wolves, foxes, dingoes, and jackals, hunting is an innate activity they also do to survive.
What Happened to the Prehistoric Big Dogs?
Epicyon is a huge, prehistoric canid genus belonging to the Borophaginae subfamily and was native to North America for around 15 million years. Epicyon was a real "canid," belonging to the same broad family as wolves and modern dogs. Its largest species weighed between 200 and 300 pounds, making them as big as, if not bigger than, a full-grown human and more than twice the size of a modern wolf. It had extraordinarily powerful jaws and teeth, making it look like a huge cat rather than a dog or wolf.
Epicyon haydeni, a monster beast larger than a dire wolf, a jaguar, and nearly as large as a modern-day African Lion, was an exception to the norm. These large prehistoric dogs weren't really "dogs" or Canis at all. Borophaginae were pre-dogs, near-dogs, or dog-like creatures.
Growing into a massive size, the Epicyon soon evolved from hunting small prey to larger animals, making them compete with other larger species in the prehistoric period. Larger prey was less abundant, while the Canidae had plenty of smaller animals to feast on. Because of the Epicyon's insanely strong jaws and specialized molars for crushing bone, they were known as "the bone crushers." However, soon enough, there was not enough prey for the Epicyon and other huge predators, leading them to become extinct and letting the smaller Canidae family thrive.

After a New York Times editorial revealed a previously unknown incident involving the Supreme Court justice while he was a Yale student, President Trump and other Republicans praised the justice.
Following the publication of new information about the allegations of sexual misconduct against Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh by The New York Times on Sunday, a number of Democratic candidates for president demanded his impeachment. Republican leaders criticized the reporting as irresponsible and defended Kavanaugh.
Related – Gus Johnson Controversy – EXPLAINED!
On Twitter, President Trump claimed that media organizations were attempting to persuade the judge to adopt more liberal stances and implied—without providing any further details—that the "Justice Department should come to his rescue."
The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation, a book that two Times writers, Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly, who assisted in covering his confirmation hearings, are writing, was published on Saturday in The Times' Opinion section.
The reporters said that they investigated the claims of sexual misbehavior and assault at the core of the proceedings for ten months, including one made by Deborah Ramirez, a former Yale classmate. She described being at a very drunken dorm party when Mr. Kavanaugh had shoved his penis in her face, causing her to swat it away and unintentionally touch it.
Although Senate investigators at the time came to the conclusion that Ms. Ramirez's account lacked support, the authors claimed that at least seven people, including Ms. Ramirez's mother and two classmates who found out about the incident just days after the party, "heard about the Yale incident long before Mr. Kavanaugh was a federal judge."
The book also claims that Ms. Ramirez's attorneys provided the F.B.I. with a list of at least 25 persons who may have corroborated the allegations, but that the agency conducted no interviews with any of them. The extract said that Ms. Ramirez was assured by the two agents that she was "credible" after their questioning.
The writers said that they had discovered a second, unreported event involving Mr. Kavanaugh's comparable actions at a separate party during his first year.
According to the passage, Max Stier, a former classmate who now leads a charity group in Washington, informed senators and the F.B.I. about what he had seen, but the agency chose not to look into it.
The passage quotes two anonymous officials who had spoken with Mr. Stier, who has chosen not to publicly address the incident. According to the book, the female student denied an interview and her pals claim that she doesn't remember the encounter. According to the passage, Justice Kavanaugh has declined to comment on it.
Christine Blasey Ford, a professor from California who went to a high school close to Judge Kavanaugh's in the Washington, D.C., area, spoke about sexual assault claims at the focus of the judge's confirmation hearing.
She testified that while they were adolescents, he tried to strip her naked while covering her mouth, pushed her to a bed, and touched her. Both women's accusations against him have been refuted.
A number of Democrats vying for their party's presidential candidacy commented on the fresh accusations.
Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts commented on The Times column on Twitter, calling the most recent disclosures "disturbing." "Kavanaugh should be impeached, just like the man who appointed him."
The demand for impeachment was backed on Twitter by Kamala Harris, a Democratic senator from California who served on the Senate panel that oversaw his confirmation proceedings.
Related – The Pete Davidson SNL Controversy – EXPLAINED!
She stated, "He was appointed to the Court through a phony procedure and his appointment to the Court is an affront to the quest for truth and justice.
Joseph R. Biden Jr., a former vice president, called the disclosures "profoundly worrisome" but refrained from asking for Justice Kavanaugh's removal from office. He demanded a probe into "whether the Trump Administration and Senate Republicans coerced the F.B.I. to dismiss evidence" in a post on Twitter.
The impeachment of justice was also demanded by Bernie Sanders, a senator from Vermont, and Julián Castro, who served as President Barack Obama's secretary of housing.
