"Like many of you, I spent my weekend attempting to process feelings of anger, fear, and disbelief in the wake of yet another killing by federal agents in Minneapolis. Alex Pretti was a 37-year-old registered nurse who provided life-saving care.

The handprints in a limestone cave in Indonesia are even older than 51,200-year-old cave paintings of human figures previously dated by the same research team."
