Speaking during a Homeland Security Committee hearing, Lorena Quiroz, a community organizer, described how immigrant families in Mississippi are still “living in fear” and suffering from depression and anxiety months after the raids. “The trauma that these raids have caused is something that will outlast the legal cases and maybe even the lives of those detained,” Quiroz, the immigration project lead organizer at Working Together Mississippi and Mississippi Immigrant Coalition, said....

For decades, sperm donation was a secretive affair. Donors were all anonymous, doctors acted as sperm brokers, parents kept mum, children never knew they weren’t biologically related to their fathers. Today, America’s reproductive culture is far more open. Single women and straight and gay couples buy eggs and sperm themselves, using pictures and audiotapes of donors to narrow down their choices. Donors like Gullicksen, who thinks he has at least 35 offspring, seek out their progeny....

The idea of a subterranean expansion of a landmark museum isn’t new—I. M. Pei’s glass pyramid for the Louvre is an iceberg’s tip that leads to vast spaces below. But ever since Frank Gehry’s exuberantly curvy Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain, became a hot tourist destination, additions to museums have tended to be showy, like Daniel Libeskind’s expansion of the Denver Art Museum, a symphony of titanium angles and peaks. Museum directors like to say such structures are artworks themselves; Wilson says that idea “leads to extravagance for its own sake, to gain attention....

There were a few hiccups (like the controversial officiating at the end of the first game), but for the first week of a brand new product, it wasn’t too bad. Johnny Manziel was the biggest name that attracted people to watch, but this league is filled with plenty of talented players, even if they aren’t household names. Both of the opening week games were close with the Wild Aces topping the Glacier Boyz 30-22 and the Beasts beating the Zappers 48-44....

In the bottom of the eighth inning of Friday night's Mets-Angels game, Mets outfielder Curtis Granderson tracked down a fly ball near the right field foul pole. As he turned his back to the stands to throw the ball to the infield, a fan in an Angels jersey reached out and grabbed his sleeve. Granderson wheeled around, angrily pointing his glove at the fan and appeared to share a few choice words....

Tanya Jeal, 31, left the “7 Days” singer feeling “violated and uncomfortable” in his own home following her lengthy five-year campaign. He said he wants to be able to “walk down the street without looking over my shoulder” following the ordeal.

One Patriots fan went the most interesting route possible and got a tattoo of Patriots coach Bill Belichick on his forearm. That tattoo reads “Belichick yourself before you wreck yourself” which is taken from the Ice Cube song “Check Yo Self.” It definitely beats the typical “2015 champions” tattoos we’re so used to seeing. Belichick’s face in the tattoo looks like a cross between 8 Mile and a face on Mount Rushmore, but maybe that’s the look he was going for....
