Chicago shootings are up roughly 50% year-to-date compared with the same period of 2019. There were 31 shootings over the weekend, including three homicides, police said. Through Aug. 2, the city has seen 450 murders so far this year, up from 291 in the same period last year, a 55% increase. Amid a surge in crime across the country, Chicago has accounted for one of eight murders in major cities.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
