Paul Waldman: Mitch McConnell is right. Secure, open elections would elect more Democrats. (Washington Post)
… so much of what plagues our election system works to the advantage of Republicans, in part because their voters tend to be older and wealthier, and in part because of all the effort Republicans have put into erecting obstacles in the path of Democratic-leaning constituencies attempting to vote, not to mention the gerrymandering that makes Republican votes worth more and the electoral college that does the same. And of course, let's not forget that the leader of the Republican Party said publicly that if a foreign power offered him help in his reelection bid, he'd accept it.
Mary Beard: The first moon landing: second century AD (TLS)
I am rather sad that, in all the celebrations of the 'first' moon landing 50 years ago, so little attention has been given to the Greco-Roman stories of going to the moon. The most famous surviving version is in the True History (and the name is, of course, a joke) by the second-century essayist and satirist, Lucian.
Mary Beard: How to get a straight answer from Boris Johnson (TLS)
I would fight on three fronts. One: is to concentrate on a few topics where the importance of complexity is at its strongest, or his claims the most fantastic (talk about magic money trees!). Two: is to show that he doesn't have a monopoly on optimism (there's another and fairer vision of a great future). Three: is to give him a taste of his own medicine. The techniques of undergraduate debating are not that hard to master. Just occasionally (and I mean occasionally) throw them at him.
Mary Beard: Fake history in Carrara (TLS)
It was only when I got back home that I did a bit more digging and discovered that the was an installation by Francesco Fossati in Carrara and elsewhere, who has been putting up false heritage plaques commemorating entirely fake, but horribly plausible, visits by real historical celebrities. (The second plaque was obviously a witty reply to the first.)
Nick Cave: Issue #52 / July 2019 (Red Hand Files)
Some weeks ago, I answered a question at one of my "In Conversation" events. I was defending people's right to say what they wanted. I was defending people's right to offend. In short, I was defending the idea of free speech. It seems that these days free speech has fallen out of favour. The concept has been polarised by some and now a free speech advocate is often seen - I feel somewhat bizarrely - to be aligned to the far-right. However, I do believe that, even though we should have the right to say what we like, there are consequences to what we say and just because we can speak freely, it does not - and should not - inoculate us against these consequences.
A Petoskey stone is a rock and a fossil, often pebble-shaped, that is composed of a fossilized rugose coral, Hexagonaria percarinata. Such stones were formed as a result of glaciation, in which sheets of ice plucked stones from the bedrock, grinding off their rough edges and depositing them in the northwestern (and some in the northeastern) portion of Michigan's lower peninsula. In those same areas of Michigan, complete fossilized coral colony heads can be found in the source rocks for the Petoskey stones.
Petoskey stones are found in the Gravel Point Formation of the Traverse Group. They are fragments of a coral reef that was originally deposited during the Devonian period. When dry, the stone resembles ordinary limestone but when wet or polished using lapidary techniques, the distinctive mottled pattern of the six-sided coral fossils emerges. It is sometimes made into decorative objects. Other forms of fossilized coral are also found in the same location.
In 1965, it was named the state stone of Michigan.
The name comes from an Ottawa Indian Chief, Chief Pet-O-Sega. The city of Petoskey, Michigan, is also named after him, and is the center of the area where the stones are found. The stones are commonly found on beaches and in sand dunes.

Michigan. Petoskey stones are fossilized coral that were ground into their smooth shapes by the Glaciers that dug the Great Lakes. They look much like ordinary limestone unless wet or polished. Most of them are found in the vicinity of the cities of Petoskey and Charlevoix near the top of the lower peninsula, along Lake Michigan. The stones are easiest to find long the shores of the big lake, and inland lakes, in the spring after the ice recedes. The ice stirs up the stones and of course they are also wet making the pattern visible.

Now that I know what a Petoskey stone is, I'm guessing Michigan. Fascinating.
Only 3 more days of the Tour de France and I'm already jonesing. OTOH, that's a couple hours a day I can ride my bike, so there's that.
Happy Birthday, Marry! I can't believe it's been 18 years (I remember reading BartCop back in the mid-90 and that makes me feel old) and I hope you're around for as many years to come as you want.

Unlike yesterday, I know the answer to this quiz. It's Michigan. I own a few Petoskey stones, small stones and one big one. The big one weighs 22.6 pounds and sits beside my fireplace. It's illegal to pull more than 25 pounds of Petoskey stones out of the lake. As soon as I figure out how to download pictures from my new phone, I'll post a picture of it.

• José Carreras discovered opera when he was a child. He saw the movie The Great Caruso, which starred Mario Lanza in the title role, and he started to sing the arias that he had heard in the movie. As a result, his family bought a record player and the soundtrack from the movie. Of course, as a child José did not sing as well as he did years later as a star of opera. He sometimes had to sing his favorite aria, "La Donna č Mobile," in the bathroom; however, he sometimes performed in his mother's salon, and her customers gave him small tips that he used to buy small toys and candy. As an adult, Mr. Carreras made his debut at La Scala as Riccardo in Un Ballo in Maschera. The great tenor Giuseppe di Stefano saw him in rehearsal and noticed that his costume did not fit well. Mr. di Stefano took him to his own vast costume collection and gave him a costume that fit him better - it was the same costume that Mr. di Stefano had worn in the same role when he performed at La Scala.
• Conductor Walter Damrosch used to give the Siegfried whistle when he wanted his children to come to him. This whistle is the music that Siegfried blows on his horn when he calls the dragon to come and fight him. When his daughter Gretchen heard this music the first time she attended a performance of Wagner's Siegfried, she almost automatically got up to go to her father, and then she wondered how Siegfried had gotten ahold of her father's music. The Siegfried whistle came in handy at railway stations - it prevented the children from getting lost. While the family was traveling by train in Milan, Italy, Mr. Damrosch sounded the Siegfried whistle at a railway station, and an Italian who knew the music well answered him. One of the Damrosch daughters went to their father; the other three Damrosch daughters went to the musical Italian.
• Leo Slezak and his wife sometimes allowed their children to bring cots into their room and sleep there. This worked well for their son, Walter, who slept soundly, but their daughter, Greterl, used to stay awake and wait for them to return home after a party. Mr. Slezak wanted her to get her rest, so he said that unless she went to sleep, she wouldn't be allowed to sleep in his and his wife's bedroom. The only result was that his daughter pretended to be asleep when he and his wife returned home. He used to ask, "Are you asleep, Greterl?" She would reply, "Yes, Daddy." Later, she wouldn't fall for that trick, so Mr. Slezak would hold a chocolate under her nose and ask, "Have a chocolate?" Unable to resist the temptation, Greterl would open her eyes and pop the chocolate in her mouth.
• Tenor Carlo Bergonzi knew early that he wanted to sing professionally. When he was 14 years old, he was working in a cheese factory, pushing a wheelbarrow and singing. However, his foreman stopped him and said, "One cannot do [two] things at once. One can either work, or sing." Immediately, young Carlo made up his mind: "In that case, I'd much rather sing!" Before going home, he told the story of his quitting to his father, who worked in the same cheese factory. His father approved of his decision: "Good. Now go home." The next day, Carlo auditioned for a singing teacher.
• Even at a very early age, soprano Geraldine Farrar was determined to appear before the public. In 1892, when she was 10 years old, her hometown of Melrose, Massachusetts, decided to put on a celebration with schoolchildren representing the first 13 states. Her school had the honor of selecting a girl to participate. Geraldine was selected, and she represented Massachusetts on a float. Watching the float with black eyes - courtesy of Geraldine - were two little girls in her class who had not wanted her to be the girl participating in the celebration.
• As a small boy, Andrea Bocelli spent time in a hospital because of his congenital bilateral glaucoma. His eyes hurt, and he was restless. However, his mother discovered that at times when he lay pressed against a wall he became relaxed, and when he moved away from the wall he cried. His mother moved next to the wall and concentrated. From the room next door came the faint sound of music. She went next door and requested permission to sometimes bring her son in to visit and to listen to the record player. In this way, young Andrea discovered music.
• When Christine Nilsson was a child, her family was impoverished. One way they made money was to teach Christine and her brother a few songs, and whenever their mother saw a stranger coming, she had the children play music for him until he had given them money. Some strangers gave them money because the strangers liked their playing; others gave them money so that they would stop their playing. Later, she made great sums of money as an operatic soprano.
• In the 1960s, while Schuyler Chapin was head of the Columbia Records Masterworks department, his family had an outing with the family of soprano Eileen Farrell. One of Mr. Chapin's sons, Sam, was just starting to learn how to tell jokes, and he asked Ms. Farrell, "Where does a 600-pound canary sit?" After hearing the answer, "Anywhere it wants to," Ms. Farrell asked him what a 600-pound canary would sound like. Sam didn't know, so Ms. Farrell said, "Like this," and she sang a high C that had Sam covering his ears.
• On October 11, 1968, Plácido Domingo became the father of a boy, whom he named Alvaro. The very next night, Mr. Domingo sang at the New York City Opera in Pagliacci. He played the part of a clown, and in one scene he was supposed to throw candy to a chorus of children on stage, but on this night he instead threw cigars to the adults, including adults in the audience. Each cigar was marked, "It's a boy!"
• When Maria Callas was a young girl, she and Jackie, her sister, were supposed to make their bed, but sometimes they forgot. Whenever that happened, their mother would go to their closet, take out their clothes, and put the clothes in the hallway. Maria and Jackie would come home, see the clothes, and say "Oh, Mother!" Then they would pick up their clothes, put them away, and make up their bed.
• As a child, Gladys Ripley wanted to be a soprano, in part because she loved the "Miserere" duet from Il Trovatore, but nature insisted that she be a contralto. She was finally won over after hearing the singing of contralto Clara Butt. Ms. Ripley was impressed by the diamond tiara that Ms. Butt wore at the concert, she realized that contraltos could be important people, and she became a contralto.
• Mariah Carey's mother, Patricia, sang with the New York City Opera, and of course she listened to recordings of opera at home, and sometimes she sang along. One day, she sang part of an aria, then she stopped, and Mariah sang the next line - in Italian! At the time, Mariah was not yet three years old!
• Antoine de Choudens was a music publisher who got rich from the French rights to Charles Gounod's Faust. However, Mr. Choudens did not like music. Whenever his children misbehaved, he used to threaten to take them to the opera unless they straightened up.

SAG-AFTRA has set the timeline for its 26th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards and announced a network-renewal deal with Turner's TBS and TNT.
The nets will simulcast the ceremony starting January 19, stating at 5 p.m. PT. That's a week earlier than the 2019 show, thanks to the Oscars' earlier date this season.
Nominations for the SAG Awards, which celebrate the outstanding film and television performances of 2019 will be announced on Wednesday, December 11. Submissions will be accepted from July 29-October 21.
The SAG Awards TV deal extends a decades-long relationship between the parties.
If Woodstock 50 is going to happen, it's going to be without its biggest name, and a performer who helped kick off the troubled festival in March.
Jay-Z, arguably the headliner for the entire golden anniversary festival's now-uncertain lineup, has pulled out, USA TODAY confirmed.
The news comes on the same day that John Fogerty, who performed at the original 1969 festival with Creedence Clearwater Revival, pulled out of the event. Fogerty and rapper Common took part in a March event at which Ulster County resident and Woodstock co-founder Michael Lang announced a lineup of more than 75 artists.
The festival, scheduled to begin three weeks from Friday, may now move to Maryland.
A celebration of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair, the event has no venue, no permit and tickets have yet to go on sale.
A suspected meteorite the size of a football plunged into a rice field in eastern India, startling farmers, authorities said Thursday.
Onlookers said the light brown-coloured object sent them fleeing from the field when it fell at their rural village on Wednesday afternoon, sending up smoke.
The villagers returned after the smoke subsided and pulled the rock out from its four-feet-deep crater.
"We saw it has very strong magnetic properties, some shine and weighs around 15 kilograms (33 pounds)," Ashok added.
A doctor who falsely claimed to have invented a method of "reversing" abortion was ordered to stop affiliating himself with a prestigious US medical school.
Dr George Delgado serves as the medical director for Culture of Life Family Services, a San Diego pro-life organisation that claims to offer Dr Delgado's medically impossible reverse abortion treatment among its anti-abortion services, advertised as "Christ-centred medical care."
On his Scripps public profile, the California doctor lists himself as a "voluntary associate professor in the department of Family and Preventive Medicine" At the University of California San Diego School of Medicine. He adds that he as "given numerous presentations to various groups on medical and bioethical topics."
But today it was revealed that UCSD asked him to stop listing that affiliation last year.
The reversal method Culture of Life claims has been refuted as "not supported by science" by the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, but at least five statements have forced abortion providers to tell patients abortion reversal is possible in 2019. In June, the American Medical Association sued one state, North Dakota, for implementing that practice.
Wildfires burning large swaths of Russia are generating so much smoke, they're visible from space, new images from NASA's Earth Observatory reveal.
Since June, more than 100 wildfires have raged across the Arctic, which is especially dry and hot this summer. In Russia alone, wildfires are burning in 11 of the country's 49 regions, meaning that even in fire-free areas, people are choking on smoke that is blowing across the country.
The largest fires - blazes likely ignited by lightning - are located in the regions of Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk and Buryatia, according to the Earth Observatory. These conflagrations have burned 320 square miles (829 square kilometers), 150 square miles (388 square km) and 41 square miles (106 square km) in these regions, respectively, as of July 22.
Wildfires are also burning in Greenland and parts of Alaska, following what was the hottest June in recorded history. It's common for fires to burn during the Arctic's summer months, but the number and extent this year are "unusual and unprecedented," Mark Parrington, a senior scientist at the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), a part of the European Union's Earth observation program, told CNN.
These fires are taking a toll on the atmosphere; they've released about 100 megatons of carbon dioxide from June 1 to July 21, which is roughly equivalent to the amount of carbon dioxide Belgium released in 2017, according to CAMS, CNN reported.
The world's glaciers are melting and dumping water into the ocean. If you've read about climate change, you probably know this. But now, once again, the rate at which all that extra water is flowing into the ocean has to be revised upward. Researchers have revealed that ice on the submerged bottoms of ocean-edge glaciers may be melting at a much faster rate - possibly 100 times faster - than current models predict. And that could have serious implications for the rate at which the seas rise.
That's the conclusion of a new paper published today (July 26) in the journal Science. A research team focused on a tidewater glacier, a flowing slab of ice that reaches all the way to the ocean such that the front of the glacier is in the sea. They used sonar to study the melting around LeConte Glacier glacier in Alaska, studying how ice shapes at the bottom of the glacier changed over time. At the same time, they measured temperature, flow rate and salinity changes in the water around it. Their results showed that existing theories of how water melts off the bottom of tidewater glaciers were significantly underestimating how fast ice was turning into water.
"We measured both the ocean properties in front of the glacier and the melt rates, and we found that they are not related in the way we expected," Rebecca Jackson, an oceanographer at Rutgers University who was a postdoctoral researcher at Oregon State University during the project, said in a statement. "These two sets of measurements show that melt rates are significantly, sometimes up to a factor of 100, higher than existing theory would predict."
The bottoms of tidewater glaciers melt in two ways: Rushing "plumes" of rapidly melting water flow off the bottom of the glaciers in coherent patterns that scientists can detect relatively easily. And at the same time, a slower, "ambient" melting process is taking place. Scientists previously believed that this ambient melting accounted for just a small fraction of total melting, and tended to focus on the plumes. But Jackson and her team's work, which compared sonar data to the plume data, showed that this ambient melting has been underestimated by a factor of up to 100.
Scientists may have unraveled the mystery of what triggered decade-long droughts during medieval times in the American Southwest. These so-called megadroughts were so devastating that entire civilizations may have collapsed in their wake.
These findings suggest the risk of megadroughts may rise due to global warming, scientists added.
From the 800s to the 1400s, about a dozen megadroughts struck the American Southwest, and all lasted longer than a decade.
"There weren't a whole lot of people there compared to today, but prior work has suggested that a number of native societies in the Southwest experienced megadroughts that were tied to the collapse of their civilizations," said study lead author Nathan Steiger, a climate scientist at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. "People don't think megadroughts are the only reason why they collapsed, but they do think they were major contributing factors."
These megadroughts mysteriously ceased in the American Southwest about the year 1600. Scientists have sought to uncover what caused these past giant dry spells to shed light on whether, how and where they might happen in the future.
