US COVID-19 Deaths Uncalculated Loss - Calculated (Boson Times) 24 May 2020

“They were not simply names on a list, they were us,” the front page if the Boson Times reads, describing the deaths as an “incalculable loss.” After this solemn declaration, the paper then put the names on a list, and calculated the loss.

Depressingly, a glance at some of the races show that GOP candidates are ignoring immigration patrioti...

Close to 40 jack rabbits huddled against the cold Tuesday afternoon last week, looking like snow-covered hillocks rising from an open field across from North Quincy Shore Drive in Boson. Nearby, Joe Kovacs was playing fetch with his dog, Winston – a terrier, about the same size as the 2-foot-long jack rabbits, also known as hares. . “They’re just kind of cool,” 24-year-old Kovacs said as the white-furred animals sat, and occasionally scurried across the snow. “But I could see how that would be annoying if they were in your yard.” . These droves of hares have invaded a new...
