Expansion of Lorain County Airport Should Not Fly
The Lorain County Regional Airport expansion is a bad idea economically and environmentally. Debt, annual losses, and dubious cargo demand argue against widening the runway. Private investment should test private park plans instead of public funding. The airport may become Ross International Airport, but expansion should not proceed.

Perils and Demands of Everest Ascent for 14 Climbers
The 14 climbers face danger on the May Everest ascent to 29 028 feet with snow patterns signaling avalanche risk. They could lose 10 30 pounds over the two month expedition while ropes anchor to the mountain to guard against rock slides and winds. Oxygen, pace, and extreme altitude shape breathing and endurance as they approach the summit with cliffs and a 2 mile camp to summit and return in a single day, akin to a 48 hour jog.
