<description><![CDATA[The dust has settled from the momentous May 19 primaries, and there were very few surprises in the statewide results. The turnout was low, which has become the norm for midterm election years in Alabama. The 23% turnout was about what it was four years ago. There were close to 900,000 votes cast. The partisan participation was about 60% Republican, and 40% Democratic, which parallels what the...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Over the past few years, a new holiday has been created in the State of Alabama, Juneteenth.

<description><![CDATA[I recall the discussion of respondeat superior in law school and examples. It is obviously a Latin term and means, “that the master must answer”. The rule was first found in England and later the doctrine became a part of law in the United States. It can be used for both civil and criminal acts. In a civil sense I think of it as being useful when an employee wrongs a client or patient then the emp...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Miles Dewey Davis III was born 100 years ago in Alton, Illinois. Alongside Louis Armstrong, he is remembered as one of the most influential figures in the history of jazz. Yet unlike Armstrong and, contrary to popular narratives about great artists overcoming extreme poverty, Davis had a starkly different upbringing. His early life was marked by relative comfort and privilege. This shaped both...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The International Space Station (ISS) is now showing unacceptable signs of age and decay. Maintaining it is becoming increasingly costly. As a result, NASA and others are planning to retire it by 2030 or 2032 with a controlled de-orbit into the depths of Point Nemo at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. This is not just a stupid idea. It is also dangerous. It is an absolute no-brainer. Just because...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[After I finished my book, Union At All Costs: From Confederation to Consolidation, I was asked who I more fully understood and respected. My answer was Jefferson Finis Davis. First of all, to say Davis was a reluctant president is an understatement. Indeed, even in the mid-1800s individuals who based their beliefs on the original intent of the Federal Republic had diminished. In a modern context,...]]></description>
