Journal news: 80% of the editorial board of Communications in Algebra has resigned. The resignation letter cites Taylor & Francis' dismissal of managing editor Scott Chapman and their recent top down approach to running journals. (E.g. implementing a 2 reviewer system without consulting the board.)
How fitting is it that Mark DeRosa didn’t know the USA could still be eliminated and let them party after beating Mexico. Thereby aiding in loss to Italy which could get them eliminated.

I very frustratingly missed the forsters tern in Poole Park this afternoon. Some other birds showed themselves very well. It’s only after looking at the photo that I’ve noticed the merganser appears to have fishing line caught in its bill. #Birds #DorsetBirds #WildlifePhotography #UKWildlife
Hey all can we keep in mind that the people who are having to be in harm's way in places like Iran and Iraq because they signed up to serve their country don't deserve any of this and can we remember that when we're replying to news about them getting bombed? Let's not lose our humanity in all this.
My cat sleeps all day and then keeps me awake all night so this gave me a good laugh.

In 1968, Jim Keltner was also working in a music shop in Pasadena just down the street from the old Ice House coffeehouse when he was recruited to play drums in a "psychedelic" vocal group named "MC Squared" along with Michael Crowley, Michael Clough, Linda Carey—all from the folk group The Back Porch Majority—and session guitarist/bassist Randy Cierley Sterling. They were signed by Mo Ostin and recorded an album for Warner/Reprise originally titled "MC Squared" which has later been re-mastered and re-released in 2012 with the album title 'Tantalizing Colors.' They appeared live that same year on the Hugh Hefner / Playboy Magazine television show "Playboy After Dark," playing two songs: an original by MC Squared members Michael Clough and Michael Crowley titled "I Know You" and a version of the Fred Neil song "Everybody's Talkin'." Both "Playboy After Dark" performances with Keltner playing drums can currently be viewed on YouTube.

WORD FACT
“Scamper” ultimately comes from Latin “ex campo” — literally, “leave the field (of battle, for instance)”. “Campo” as “field” also gives us the modern English word “campus”.
So, we could say that to scamper is to “leave campus”.
