Well ONE turtle is going to be a very, very, busy guy.

116 to 1

The sex of sea turtles is determined by the temperature of the sand that incubates their egg, and with the world getting warmer on the aggregate this evolutionary property has had a bit of a misfire for Pacific green sea turtles around Ingram Island.

Researchers looking at the gender of the reptiles found female turtles outnumbered male turtles 116 to 1, according to a study published in Current Biology. [National Geographic]

So too will the NC legislature be very, very, busy over the next two weeks.

13 districts

That’s the number of congressional districts in the state of North Carolina, of which 10 seats are held by Republicans.

This is a striking majority given the actual apparent lean of the state — President Trump took only 49.8 percent of the vote to Hillary Clinton’s 46.2 percent — and one empowered by what a “biting” 191-page opinion from Judge James A. Wynn Jr. describes as a massive partisan gerrymander.

On Tuesday, the Judge ruled that the map violated the 14th Amendment and ordered the legislature redraw the map by January 24. [The New York Times]
