Pirates attacked and plundered an oil rig last Sunday in the Gulf of Mexico, locking up the crew while they looked for loot.

Witnesses said at least six men armed with guns and knives boarded the rig at 9:30pm and proceeded directly to the third floor to wake up the crew. After locking up workers in the cafeteria, the thieves wandered freely, looting equipment, materials, money and anything of value they could carry.

The pirates departed at 4:00 am on Monday, when the rig’s captain sent an emergency alert to authorities. The navy responded 4 1/2 hours later. The crew and company lawyers have spent this week in interviews and taking inventory of damaged or stolen items, which have still not been fully identified.

China is desperately struggling to fill a market gap that could see as many as 200 million pigs lost to disease or slaughter, according to a worst-case scenario study from Rabobank, with African swine fever ripping through all 31 of its autonomous regions and provinces, from Tibet in the west to the tropical island of Hainan in the south, within just nine months.

The Boston Beer Company (SAM) — makers of the Samuel Adams beer brand and the second largest craft brewer in the United States — and Delaware-based brewer Dogfish Head Craft Brewery said Thursday that they plan to merge the companies in a deal valued at more than $300 million.

Where's the adult in this story?

1. Metro employee eats in plain view of passengers who would get in trouble if they were doing the same thing.

2. Woman passenger feels the need to tattle tale on that employee.

3. Idiots on twitter cry racism, review bomb that woman passenger's book which is pending publishing, and hypocritically complain they're trying to harm someone else's livelihood.

4. Cowardly publishing company backs down from publishing book.

On the other side of the coin... the DC Metro is a dumpster fire nepotistic make-work program for Anacostia. If you criticize anyone who works for Metro, you’re a racist. They’l jack your ass for eating on the train... and they are public employees. So the cop running a red light analogy is correct.

It is really hard to have sympathy for either of them, but it looks like the only real consequences went to the author because she tried to shame a black woman

I'm talking about caring from a beer standpoint, not a business one.

Then you've lost me. If you're a fan of DFH or Sam you should care. Unless they leave each other completely autonomous, one of them is going to be in for change, and why merge if you are going to stay autonomous?
