We Watched “Grizzly Man” With a Bear Biologist. It Got Weird. - Backpacker

When you're eaten by a bear, they're very different from other predators, in that a lion or a tiger or a big cat is going to dispatch their prey and bite through the windpipe or do something to kill it, so they can then drag it somewhere to consume it safely. A bear doesn't do that; a bear will literally sit on you and eat you. Often these people die by bleeding out, and it takes a long time. It's 10 to 15 minutes of this bear sitting on you eating you alive, not ripping out necessary organs or something to kill you. Sometimes you luck out, and the bear kills you quickly. In his case, that wasn't what happened.

She Is From Alberta – Super-Funny

The only cow in a small town in the USA stopped giving milk. The people did some research and found that they could buy a cow from BC Canada for 1,000 dollars, or one from Alberta Canada for 800 dollars. Being poor, they bought the cow from Alberta. The cow was wonderful.

It produced lots of milk all the time, and the people were amazed and very happy. They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow and produce more cows like it. Then they would never have to worry about the milk supply again.

They bought a bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow. However, whenever the bull came close to the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull and he could not succeed in his quest. The people were very upset and decided to ask the rabbi, who was very wise, what to do.

They told the rabbi what was happening; "Whenever the bull approaches our cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches her from the front, she backs off. An approach from the side and she just walks away to the other side." The rabbi thought about this for a minute and asked, "Did you buy this cow from Alberta?" The people were dumbfounded. They had never mentioned where they had gotten the cow. "You are truly a wise rabbi. How did you know we got the cow from Alberta?"

The rabbi answered sadly, "My wife is from Alberta."

Ali Miles

### Case Details: Dylan Peter Miles (aka Dylan Peter Busa Miles, aka Ali Miles)

Dylan Peter Miles, a resident of Yavapai County, Arizona, at the time of the offenses, was involved in a criminal case related to domestic violence incidents. He identifies as a transgender Muslim woman and has used the name Ali Miles in subsequent legal actions. The case was handled in Yavapai County Superior Court.

- **Charges**: Two counts of aggravated harassment per domestic violence, classified as Class 5 felonies under Arizona law (A.R.S. § 13-2921). The incidents occurred on November 2021 and February 2022, involving stalking and harassment of a victim in Yavapai County.
- **Background**: Miles was arrested on warrants related to these charges. He was temporarily detained in New York (Rikers Island) in June-July 2022 while awaiting extradition to Arizona. Prior to this case, Miles had a history of similar issues, including prior stalking and harassment charges in the same county.
- **Trial and Proceedings**: The case proceeded to trial in Yavapai County after his transfer from New York. Details on the exact trial date are not publicly detailed in available records, but it concluded in late 2022.

### Trial Outcome
- **Verdict**: Guilty on both counts of aggravated harassment per domestic violence. The conviction was entered on October 26, 2022.
- **Sentencing**:
- Supervised probation for 3 years.
- 312 days in Yavapai County Jail, with credit for 132 days already served (effective jail time: 180 days).
- Required to complete a domestic violence assessment and treatment program.
- **Additional Notes**: As a Class 5 felony in Arizona, each count carries a potential prison term of 0.5 to 2.5 years, but the sentence focused on probation and jail time rather than extended prison due to the circumstances. No appeals or further proceedings in this specific case are noted in public records as of September 2025. Miles has since filed multiple civil lawsuits in other jurisdictions (e.g., New York) alleging discrimination related to his gender identity and incarceration experiences, but these are unrelated to the Yavapai County criminal trial.

Public court records for Yavapai County can be accessed via the Arizona Judicial Branch's Public Access to Court Case Information portal for verification. No other trials or cases matching "Dylan Peter Miles" in Yavapai County were found.

Is Violent Protest Ever Justified? - The Prindle Institute for Ethics

When tyrants are expelled from the halls of power by those over whom they exercised their terrible control, we cheer for those who establish a better community for themselves and their fellow citizens. But, such revolutions, by their very nature, are violent. Illegitimate political systems and nefarious state actors never relinquish their power freely; it is always pried from their hands. Yet, the fact that such revolutions involve, to one degree or another, a level of violence doesn't cause us to balk instantly. Instead, we acknowledge that violence can be a legitimate political tool when the state becomes illegitimate and can no longer justifiably demand obedience from its citizens.

There were other striking demographic differences. Alaska Natives had, by far, the highest homicide rates, more than twice the state averages over the period.

Anchorage accounted for about 45% of the homicides over the period. Certain rural areas – Northern and Southwest Alaska – had the highest rates, as measured by homicides per 100,000 people.

Walgreens private equity

https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/10/business/walgreens-private-equity-risky

The private equity business model often relies upon forcing the company to take on massive amounts of debt to give the greatest possible return to the private equity firm, with the long-term survival of the business often not a priority. The debt is often used to pay "special dividends" to the firm itself to cover the initial purchase price, as well as heavy "management fees" placed on the company, to be paid to the private equity firm. Many times brick-and-mortar retail chains have been forced to sell off the buildings that house their stores and pay rents that they can't afford to new owners, leading to even more store closings and layoffs.
