7 Best Food Deals at Costco This Presidents' Day Weekend - Eat This, Not That

-

Over a century ago, when Abraham Lincoln first established the federal holiday now known as President's Day, he probably never dreamed of the future impact on U.S. retail.

Scholars say Honest Abe was a pretty frugal guy, however. So, if he were still around today, he just might appreciate all the sales going down this weekend—heck, he might even be a Costco member! (Most likely, a Gold Star member, but that's beside the point.)

Modern-day Americans can nonetheless take advantage over the next few days, as the nation's largest warehouse club is advertising big savings on household goods like mattresses and major appliances. It's also offering some significant discounts on groceries, too.

Check out some of Costco's most tantalizing food and drink deals going on right now. Keep in mind: the prices you see here are online only. You can usually save more by shopping in-person at the warehouse near you.

Rare Frogs And Illegal Drugs - Palisades Hudson Financial Group

Colombian conservationist Ivan Lozano has hit on a brilliantly promising strategy to protect his country’s rare and endangered amphibians. His plan: Flood the market with them. Lozano is not hunting rare frogs in Colombia’s Andean forests. He is raising them himself and selling them at prices designed to undercut poachers and smugglers. If he can raise the frogs cheaply enough, and in large enough numbers, he might manage to drive down the market price to the point that poachers no longer find it worthwhile to harvest and smuggle the creatures onto the black markets. Lozano told The Associated Press that his company also encourages collectors to breed their own frogs. Picture yourself as a poacher. If the government toughens the legal penalties and steps up enforcement, you will shrug your shoulders; legal risks are a basic cost of doing business. Since the demand for your product already exists among foreign collectors and other buyers, tougher enforcement merely reduces supply a...

Burn scars, winter storms threaten rare and endangered species in San Gabriel Mountains - The Bakersfield Californian

-

LOS ANGELES — Up until a few weeks ago, the West Fork of the San Gabriel River was one of the most abundant wildlife habitats in Los Angeles County, a secluded and rugged area defined by its steep peaks, lush canyons and mixture of rare and endangered species. Recently however, a team of federal biologists and forest rangers was aghast when it visited the stream following the Bobcat fire, which has burned more than 115,000 acres in the heart of the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument. Terrain that once resembled a High Sierra granite gorge now looked like ground zero after a nuclear explosion, and the usually clean mountain air was sharp with the stench of smoke. Particularly unsettling were the bare and ashen slopes that were now primed to dissolve under pounding winter storms. A heavy mudslide, experts said, could reverse decades of conservation efforts by inundating the last outposts for such federally protected species as the Santa Ana sucker fish and Southern California m...
