Auger North space project eyed for western Kansas
Morris and Solomey plan to discuss Auger North at the Galaxy Forum in Hutchinson. The northern array would span about 8 000 square miles with four fluorescence detectors and 4 400 water tanks, powered by solar energy. United States funding of approximately 16 million dollars is slated, with 200 million to be raised by 18 other countries. Kansas may need a one time tax credit for farm tanks, while Wichita State University may require another physicist to qualify as a full member university.

Group seeks ban on bear baying with hunting dogs in South Carolina
A Humane Society undercover investigation into bear baying shows a chained bear forced to stand as packs of dogs attack. Advocates urge an explicit ban, arguing cruelty and spectator appeal, while supporters defend it as dog training for bear encounters. State law remains murky with mixed animal cruelty exemptions and past legal debates on related practices.
