CALGARY The Calgary Zoo is celebrating the arrival of three, newly-hatched whooping crane chicks including a rare set of twins thanks to some help from the animal health, care and welfare team. Avian partners Hercules and Helsinki have hatched and raised several chicks in the past, but artificial insemination is needed for them to conceive. A procedure was done in the spring and 28 days later, members of the animal care, health and welfare team noticed an egg was in the early stages of hatching. But, there was an issue – the chick was malpositioned and had pipped outside of its air cell, the zoo said.

Alison Bechdel once believed in striving for a âlone wolfâ style of self-reliance. Now, when she walks in the woods of her northern Vermont home, a fair distance from neighbors or the nearest town, she feels especially tethered to the world.
âYou canât ask for a more vivid example of that than this pandemic,â the best-selling cartoonist says this week, upon the release of her new book about the relationship between mind and body. She notes that she is âhalf-vaxxed,â with her second immunization shot just hours away. The global spread of the coronavirus âdemonstrates how vulnerable we all are â how completely connected we are to each other â with the intense contagion of this thing. Itâs really kind of stunning.â

Choosing a college can be one of the most important decisions in a person s life. The universities that students attend will train them for their future careers, give them the education they need to think critically and solve real-world problems, and connect them to a lifelong social network and community. While invaluable, the benefits of higher education don t come cheap especially if the choice is a private school. Tuition and fees at private colleges clocked in at more than $35,000 a year on average in the 2018-2019 school year. That s nearly four times as much as what a student would typically spend to attend an in-state public college, according to data from U.S. News & World Report. No wonder recent graduates of private nonprofit schools typically shoulder about $32,600 in student debt, according to Matt Carter of Credible.
