Two similiar robberies.

At UW-Oshkosh and UW-Milwaukee in the past two weeks, at both campuses there have been two different robberies. The UWM
Post does not describe the race or ethnicity of the robbers and instead
describes one of the assailants as "broadly built with an Afro haircut". While the Advance titan describes the robbers as "three African-American males".

Assuming that the perpetrators of both muggings were Black why did only the
Titan describe the robbers as African American and the Post as race less people?

The articles have only three possible purposes.
One reporting on an event that happened near campus. Two to raise
awareness to not walk alone or to be more cautious at nighttime. Three
to try to get people to come forward who may know more about the
suspects.

The purpose of the articles should be a combination of mostly the last two reasons. Race is part of someones physical descripton. It may very well perpetuate steretypes people hold. The Oshkosh and Milwaukee police will probably on their patrols give a group of young Black men more than a second look. But in Milwaukee students who may know something will be left out in the dark, because the full physical of the suspects descriptions has been left out.

If there is a slight dehydration the thirst mechanism may be mistaken for hunger and one may eat when the body is actually craving fluid. As most food contains some water...

Recycling.

Recycling uses less energy than processing new raw materials. And it reduces waste we put in landfills and creates jobs. If you have access to recycling bins please use them, it makes a difference.

Cigarettes on a plane.

A German entrepreneur plans to launch the world's first smokers' airline next year, promising a return to the times before planes became smoke-free zones."

It doesn't look like it will be cheap, since it will cater to business class passengers willing to pay extra. And that it plans to have the planes run from Germany to Japan. But being able to get drunk, while chain smoking on a plane. Seems like a stress free way to fly. The purpose of flight attendants and food. Is to distract you from the fact that you are in a metal tube going around six hundred miles an hour.
