Diamond M Ranch has grazed its cattle on federal land since World War II.

Since 2012, 26 wolves have been killed after Washington officials found that members of their packs had attacked Diamond M livestock.

@RichReadReports with the full story: latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Environmentalists say Diamond M Ranch not only fails to take preventive steps to safeguard its herds, but in some cases brings on the bloodshed by leaving cattle near known wolf dens.

In 2012, all seven members of a wolf family were shot, most from a helicopter, after officials found that the group had preyed on Diamond M cattle. Environmentalists accuse Diamond M of keeping salt blocks near a wolf den, causing cattle to swarm around it.

Bill McIrvin, a rancher in the family that owns Diamond M, denies goading wolves to attack. He says his business has lost $1 million since 2008 from the killings of 75 to 100 cattle a year by wolves – many times the number that the state has officially confirmed. 📸: Carolyn Cole
The issue highlights a clash of cultures between rural eastern Washington residents and city dwellers who cattlemen say know nothing about ranching, wildlife and predators. latimes.com/world-nation/s…

Breaking: Acidity levels in California coastal waters are rising at a rate double that of the global average, threatening major fisheries and sounding the alarm that the ocean can absorb only so much more of the world’s carbon emissions.
latimes.com/california/sto…
A study led by NOAA also made an unexpected connection between acidification and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, a climate cycle that other scientists say has played a big role in increasing rates of sea level rise affecting California.
latimes.com/california/sto…
Restoring the ocean’s kelp forests and other marine vegetation will help sequester some of this carbon, but ultimately, how much worse this all gets depends on the choices people make in the next decade.

Juul wanted to distance itself from a toxic past.

But new evidence depicts a Silicon Valley start-up that harvested the tobacco industry’s technical savvy to launch a 21st century nicotine arms race.
latimes.com/politics/story…
A review by The Times of more than 3,000 pages of internal Juul records found that the formula that makes the e-cigarette so palatable and addictive dates back more than four decades.

The key ingredient: nicotine salts.
latimes.com/politics/story…
A similar formula was tested 40 years ago, in a six-month-long chemical investigation found in the research troves of R.J. Reynolds, the maker of Camel cigarettes. On the report was a stamp: “CONFIDENTIAL.”

Across the U.S., asylum officers are finding ways to resist a Trump administration immigration policy they view as illegal, according to asylum officers and officials who spoke to The Times and @ThisAmerLife. lat.ms/2QkCEqI
@ThisAmerLife Doug Stephens, a former asylum officer, decided he wasn’t going to interview any more asylum seekers under the president’s latest policy to restrict immigration, known as Remain in Mexico.

It took him only two days to decide. And he’s not alone. lat.ms/2QkCEqI
@ThisAmerLife Stephens knew the interviews were set up to send asylum seekers back to Mexico, even if they were in danger. He also knew that refusing to implement government policy likely meant he’d be fired. lat.ms/2QkCEqI

My 116 favorite quotes from Money: Sound and Unsound, by Joseph.T. Salerno (2015)
@jtsale @mises #AustrianEconomics #SoundMoney
1. “The idea of sound #money was present from the very beginning of modern monetary theory in the works of the 16th-century Spanish #Scholastics who argued against debasement of the coinage by the king on ethical and economic grounds”
J.T.Salerno
2. “It was #Fisher and not #Keynes who was the true founder of modern macroeconomics with its aggregative reasoning and its central notion of politically managed fiat money”

Presidential Proclamation on National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, 2018

Today, we honor those who perished 77 years ago at Pearl Harbor, and we salute every veteran who served in World War II over the 4 years that followed that horrific attack.
On December 7, 1941, America was attacked without warning at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, by the air and naval forces of Imperial Japan. Just before 8:00 a.m., Japanese aircraft ripped through the sky, dropping bombs on ships of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and on nearby airfields and bases.

A few thoughts on why history will remember Angela Merkel rather less kindly than most now believe.

(Thead.)

foreignaffairs.com/articles/europ…
Merkel has done more to shape contemporary Germany than any postwar leader other than Konrad Adenauer, Willy Brandt, and Helmut Kohl. Since she’s a triple outsider in her party—an Ossi from the GDR, a Protestant, and a woman—that alone is a remarkable achievement.
Like many others on the center-left, I feel grudging admiration for her steadfastness. Her commitment to the principles that guided the Federal Republic since World War II—democracy, the rule of law, and an instinctive belief in the European project—is obviously deeply felt.
