Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

The IRC The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives. Find out how you can help the IRC offer lifesaving care ...

Is it your plan to continue giving 100% to USCRI? But I see they give money to many other organizations, like the IRC (rescue.org) of which I am a longtime supporter. #ACESchat

The features go through various life cycles. Abyss pool is a good example. In 2017 it likely looked it's best. Then it crashed and turned into a luke warm grey swamp, then, over the next few years it really came back. I'd guess by end of this year it'll be "smashing" once again.

Jennifer, I would love to pick your brain on work in field guides, on behalf of someone I mentor, or maybe introduce him to you so he can ask questions?

That’s another way to do it, label yourself with a niche (mine is art and travel) but be open to lots more! #ACESchat

Likewise. I am always a copy editor (well, occasionally I get to proofread) but on a wide range of nonfiction topics and materials.

I had to look up what a Kobo Libra Colour is. Looks like it would be fun to do something similar with my new laptop and stylus!

I’ll echo the comments others made about September. But generally I create and modify to-do lists, large and small, throughout the year.

I can’t imagine creating a new to do list this time of year when I am so busy. Instead I try to get into it later in January and typically in late summer.
