Flued out and the aging language of sports notes
Rudolf Fleschly argues that a simple five letter term flued out used for high school football games cancelled by Asian flu reveals how language evolves with medicine. The St Louis Post Dispatch notes the AP wire’s plain style contrasts with the aging metaphor of plagues like the Black Death.

Nebraska Property Tax Burden Shifts Since 1867
The piece notes most Nebraskans were farmers and ranchers when the tax system formed. Now only a quarter live on farms, but farms still hold about 60 percent of property values. Net farmer income funds taxes at roughly 12 percent of state total. Changes from rural to urban economies, corporate wealth, and rental housing created new wealth forms and tax gaps. Intangible property escapes taxation, while real property bears most taxes. The current system, unchanged since 1867, fails to fairly distribute tax burdens.
