In the U.S., the country that made the hamburger a global icon of American fast-food cuisine, beef is about to fall another spot on the meat scale.

For the past two decades, chicken has outranked beef as the most produced meat, and now pork is about to surpass it as well. Hog herds have rebounded from a deadly virus last year, while record-high meat prices and cheaper feed led to breeding of more sows and bigger pigs. As pork output in 2015 jumps 4.6 percent to a record, cattle ranchers have yet to recover from a 2012 drought, and beef production is headed for a 22-year low, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates.

When porcine epidemic diarrhea virus killed millions of piglets across the country in 2014, prices for bacon and pork chops surged to all-time highs as supplies tightened. With more hogs arriving in recent months and demand increasing, costs are dropping for buyers

I love Argentina with all my heart, but I am constantly embarrassed by our president's arrogance and lack of decorum. http://happyplace.someecards.com/intern ... -accounts/

(that's besides the deep-seated corruption in her incompetent government)

None except to say that my friends seem to be sharply divided on the issue, if social media is to be believed. From what I can tell, this is some real-life House of Cards shit.

I haven't been in Argentina for the last two months, I reckon I'll get a better idea of the scandal and the reactions thereto once I'm back in BA (traveling this weekend).

I just made the mistake of reading the comments on an LA Times article about vaccination. I feel like I just lost millions of brain cells.

The local newspaper here got so tired of terrible comments in their articles that they switched to Facebook comments requiring everyone to put their real name to their comments. The number of comments plummeted pretty close to zero. :haha:

Somehow he just "forgot" what helicopter that he was in. Because, ya know, one that gets hit and one that doesn't flies exactly the same.
