A bill guaranteeing Pennsylvanians access to zero cost contraception has passed overwhelmingly in the commonwealth’s House of Representatives. The bill, in one form or another, waited seven years to pass through committee and to the floor for a vote.

You know, I'm starting to think bison are easy targets out in the wild, and I'm not really sure why.

Male bison can weigh upwards of 2,000 pounds and stand as tall as five to six feet, so they should be pretty menacing to potential predators. They also have the tools to be deadly themselves, with their horns being more than capable of goring another animal to death, or in some rare cases, pinning a Yellowstone National Park tourist to the ground.
