Flu deaths (and traffic deaths)
They reported here earlier that there had been 219 flu deaths in NC this season, if I heard it right. I can find nothing here - only this from January - about that and nothing in a Google search.
Great opportunity to compare, per resident, with France. This number is the equivalent of about 1,000 in France, given its population.
Should do the same for traffic deaths.
This says there were 3,250 deaths in 2014 in France.

Sea levels are rising at faster clip as polar melt accelerates, new study shows - The Washington Post
It seems to me that we should be posting signs all over the world showing where a three foot rise in sea level would bring the sea -- high water marks, in other words, just as we have done in places to show hurricane floods etc. The people who fill in a lot of land could be the biggest beneficiaries!

Fichage : Robert Ménard entendu mercredi par la police
Really interesting to look at differences between the US and France on how pupils in public schools are counted. I am not sure what the law says in the US about compiling statistics on religion. Much of the French concern stems from deep guilt over WW II and identification of Jews.
