In pre-news news, next week at least two more males plan to announce runs for the Republican presidential nomination. Unrelated, an overabundance of male trees is upping the pollen count, leading to more allergies. Meanwhile, males may — eventually — not be needed to create life, as a new technology known as IVG could someday allow baby-making without them. You win some, you lose some, guys.
