The morning papers
-- One of the USDA's suggestions for encouraging children to eat healthy foods:
If children are old enough, let them help shop for, clean, peel, or cut up fruits and vegetables.
Yes, I'm letting you clean and peel it. Isn't this fun?
-- From the Guardian:
The bodies of elderly passengers who died in cheaper and fully occupied sections of planes during the flights were transferred to empty seats in first class because of a lack of space to store them.
So that's how you get an upgrade ...
-- From the New York Times:
A House committee released documents Monday that showed hundreds of instances in which a White House official who was previously an oil industry lobbyist edited government climate reports to play up uncertainty of a human role in global warming or play down evidence of such a role.
I'm sure he was a soulless shill for the oil industry doing the best he could.
