On Friday, architect Douglas Cardinal filed a claim that said his human rights are violated when Indians games are broadcast on television. He requested that Judge Thomas McEwen of Ontario Superior Court ban the Indians name and logo from any broadcast until his human rights complaints are heard.

Indonesia’s reaction to the passing of its longest-ruling president was muted, and paradoxical. During the final weeks of his life, elder statesmen from across the region paraded past Suharto’s sickbed to pay their respects. Yet several prominent domestic visitors emerged from Jakarta’s Pertamina Hospital to declare that official investigations into alleged extrajudicial killings and ill-gotten family wealth should proceed even after the former strongman’s death. From the halls of power to the streets, Indonesians praise today’s democratic system without vilifying the leader ousted in a student-led uprising back in 1998....

Fruit flies are used extensively in scientific research because, even though it is very different to humans, they have many molecular processes that are shared among all species as a result of evolution. They are quick to breed and have a short life cycle, making studying them reasonably quick and inexpensive....

The private sector produces the overwhelming majority of new concepts and, more critically, turns them into added value. Private companies obtained 85 percent of all U.S. patents in 2016, and individuals comprised an additional 9 percent. Universities, by contrast, accounted for only 4 percent of the total, and government laboratories just 1 percent. The Biden plan would drain resources from the private sector, which is the main source of practical innovation....
