Jo Freeman Writes: Why There Is a Run-Off Election in Georgia on December 6th
Jo Freeman writes: "Georgia is one of only two states to require that elections be won by at least 50 percent of the vote. Neither Democrat Raphael Warnock nor Republican Herschel Walker received the necessary 50 percent in the November general election, when only 57 percent of Georgia voters cast a ballot. It’s ironic that both are Black men because the original purpose of the requirement for an absolute majority was to keep any Black person from being elected to high office. An electoral procedure crafted to keep Blacks out of higher office now requires that Georgia voters choose between two Black men to be their US Senator. In August of 2021 former NFL player Herschel Walker moved his residence from Texas to Georgia so he could run in the Republican primary for Senate. That’s why there will be a run-off election in Georgia on December 6." more »

Travel and tourism contacts, by contrast, reported moderate gains in activity, as restaurants and high-end hospitality venues enjoyed robust demand. Higher interest rates further dented home sales, which declined at a moderate pace overall but fell steeply in some districts; apartment leasing started to slow, as well. more »
Continuous Challenges: Dr. Anthony Fauci Reflects On the Perpetual Challenge of Infectious Diseases
Dr. Anthony Fauci notes that the emergence of HIV/AIDS in 1981 led to a sharp increase in interest in infectious diseases among people entering the field of medicine. Since then, infectious disease specialists have faced numerous medical challenges, including the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, Ebola, Zika, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and COVID-19, he writes. Dr. Fauci notes that one success of the response was the rapid development, testing and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines thanks to years of research and investment in new and highly adaptable vaccine platforms and structural biology tools to design vaccine immunogens. more »
Rose Madeline Mula Writes: Brad Pitt and Me
Rose Madeline Mula Writes: "Don’t be misled by the title. Brad Pitt is not my new boy toy.
Our connection is that I recently learned that he and I have something in common. Unfortunately, it’s not fame, fortune, talent or good looks. It’s a malady called Prosopagnosia. No, wait! You don’t have to move six feet away. It’s not contagious. And it’s not terminal. Unless one can actually die of embarrassment." more »
