In Search of Sungudogo by Greg Laden.

Sometimes called the "fourth African ape," Sungudogo is not a Gorilla, not a Chimpanzee, not a Bonobo, and possibly not even real. Years ago, Sungudogo drew the interest of the world famous primatologist Dieter Phillips, who was funded by a secret society of "scholars and gentlemen" to launch an expedition to determine the veracity of this mysterious primate. Dieter never returned from that expedition, and as the years passed, the whole story drifted into obscurity. But the watchers were always watching, always waiting, for clues of the fate of this expedition. When new evidence came to light, the investigation was renewed into the outcome of Phillip's ill fated trek into the Rain Forest. Who better to follow Dieter Phillip's tracks than his former student, aided by an explorer and mercenary familiar with the area, assisted by two willing Congolese park guards?They were to learn things that went beyond their wildest imaginations, and they would discover secrets about Phillip's expedition, about the rift valley, about themselves, about humanity, that they would never be able to share but that would change their lives forever.

The energy provider said it had been capturing the tritium-laced water and rerouting it back into the plant for re-use, but on Wednesday detected a new leakage into the groundwater, which it anticipates to be hundreds of gallons.

Xcel Energy will start to power down its nuclear plant in Monticello several weeks earlier than planned after more radioactive water leaked out of the facility. https://cbsn.ws/3lxdF5H

So now Xcel is shutting down the Monticello nuclear plant after another leak after it recently leaked 400,000 gallons of water containing tritium. Today Xcel Energy reported the new leak, near the spot of the previously reported release, is still ongoing.

Sweet lord!!!

I'm no nuclear scientist, but JUST MAYBE you might want to check the ENTIRE plant for leaks NOW!

But good news people of that area, your @mngop reps are LASER focused on stopping Drag Queen Story Hour, because THAT is their biggest concern. https://www.startribune.com/xcel-discovers-new-leakage-at-monticello-plant-will-power-down-for-repairs/600261538/

Journalists, notice please: MN is experiencing a nuclear diaster of growing concern. Please look into it.

Not a meltdown or anything as dramatic as that, but a leak of radioactive material, proably into the Mississippi eventually.

Fox News sought a restraining order against one of its own senior producers on Monday to prevent her from publicly disclosing information linked to the $1.6 billion defamation claim it is fighting over falsehoods it broadcast after the 2020 election.

Listen to @peggyflanagan's powerful response to Sen. Drazkowski saying he's never met anyone dealing with hunger:

"There were nights where I ate and my mom said she simply wasn't hungry. It wasn't until I was an adult & I was a parent that I realized that she was lying." #mnleg
