In late March, U.S. Representative Mark Pocan of Wisconsin blasted Amazon following reports workers were urinating into bottles because they had no time to stop to use a restroom. Paying workers $15/hr doesn t make you a progressive workplace when you union-bust & make workers urinate in water bottles, Pocan tweeted.
Amazon quickly denied the claim. You don’t really believe the peeing in bottles thing, do you? If that were true, nobody would work for us. The truth is that we have over a million incredible employees around the world who are proud of what they do, and have great wages and health care from day one, Amazon tweeted in response to Pocan. We hope you can enact policies that get other employers to offer what we already do.

Town of Lewisboro Supervisor Peter H. Parsons says he was alerted by the Westchester County Department of Health after a fox bit a person and dog during a morning walk last Wednesday in the Northern Westchester County area of Waccabuc.
Parsons did not release the gender of the person bit or provide any updates on the person or the pet dog. While it hasn t been confirmed, Parsons says it s likely the fox was rabid, because foxes typically only attack if they are rabid or protecting their young. These animals tend to bite if they are rabid or are protecting their pups. We do not know if this fox is rabid but wanted to alert the community of this situation, Parsons wrote on Facebook.
