Science writers highlighted the University of Cincinnati's insights into an extinct hippo that once roamed the island of Madagascar in Africa. UC College of Arts and Sciences Professor Brooke Crowley led a team of researchers who used isotopic analysis to discover that extinct dwarf hippos were feeding on sedges and leaves in forests rather than on grass on open savanna like their mainland cousins today. The findings suggest grasslands in Madagascar are a relatively recent change facilitated by people rather than a natural habitat sustained in part by hippos.

Advocating for change is not an easy thing. Society does not do well with changes but many have fought for change over the world's history. People with disability have been the most oppressed population ever throughout history. Washington state is on its way to being the first state to have a "Nothing About Us Without Us Act" making it mandatory to have those receiving services and those making policy about us, must include us in the planning and discussions about things that will affect our life.

As we face the issue of whether or not the Philippines should accept some 50,000 refugees from Afghanistan that the United States government would be processing before they can become US residents, one cannot help recalling the times our country became a halfway house, a foster home, so to speak, for those fleeing their homelands to seek friendly shores, if not the land oozing with milk and honey of their dreams. The Philippines was never their country of choice as a final destination, and that sort of hurts the Pinoy ego.
