...said Sarah E. Wick ’10. She added that she planned to stay involved “until change we can believe in takes place,” displaying a full-color, temporary tattoo of Obama’s visage on the back of her hand as proof of her commitment...

Aberdeenshire, with its decimated fishing fleet and dwindling offshore oil fields, has been a specific target for outside investment. Trump has promised to create 6000 jobs there, but that hardly mollified Scotland's conservation bodies. On Monday, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, one of the most vocal defenders of the dunes, accused the Scottish government of selling a "greener Scotland down the river" for Trump's money - loaded words...
