I have, for no particular reason, just read the white house's policy on birthright citizenship and I am left with an honest question: How, if necessary, would I prove to a court that I am a valid citizen? Am I supposed to have naturalization papers from my 19th century ancestors? Would a DAR membership count?

This Indostomus/toothpick fish has been getting ever less toothpick-shaped over the winter and the pair are finally spawning this week. The eggs seem infertile, even though their water is already pretty soft.
