400.4 arrests
Among states that are not ridiculously small population wise — specifically Wyoming, which is No. 1 — New Jersey comes out as having the highest per-capita marijuana arrest rate, with 400.4 arrests for marijuana possession or distribution for every 100,000 people. Only New York and Texas, each of which is far more populated than Jersey, had a higher total number of marijuana arrests in 2016. [NJ Advanced Media]
1,250 Americans
That’s the number of American civilians, contractors and military personnel stationed at the Pentagon base on Roi-Namur, an atoll in the Marshall Islands. Rising sea levels plus the low-lying height of the island prompted research showing that the island’s aquifers are in more danger of saltwater contamination than previously known due to climate change.

133,995 pallets
Scattered across America are “at least six” secret stockpile warehouses containing more than 133,995 pallets worth of medical countermeasures that can be deployed to an area of the country rapidly to contend with a chemical, nuclear or biological attack or incident. A preconfigured cache of 50 tons of antibiotics, syringes, oxygen tubing and more exists that can be loaded into a plane and delivered in 12 hours. [The Washington Post]
