Decker children murders
On May 30, 2025, sisters Paityn, Evelyn and Olivia Decker (ages 9, 8 and 5 respectively) were reported missing in Wenatchee, Washington, after their father did not return them on time from a custody visit. Three days later, their bodies were discovered in Chelan County, near the unoccupied and abandoned truck he lived in. The father, 32-year-old Travis Caleb Decker of Pewaukee, Wisconsin, who lived in Wenatchee at the time of the murders, was the main suspect and became the focus of a three-month nationwide manhunt, the largest in the county's history. On September 25, human remains found a week prior near Leavenworth, Washington were confirmed to be Decker's; the confirmation came a day after he was declared dead by the U.S. Marshals Service.

Lindgren oxidation
Lindgren oxidation  is a selective method for oxidizing aldehydes to carboxylic acids. The reaction is named after Bengt O. Lindgren.

The oxidation takes place in water containing solvent mixtures under slightly acidic conditions (pH 3–5) with sodium chlorite as oxidizer. To avoid complicated oxidation reactions the hypochlorite, which is formed in the reaction, has to be removed from the reaction mixture by scavengers. In the original publication, sulfamic acid and resorcinol were used. George A. Kraus and co-workers were the first to use 2-methyl-2-butene as scavenger under buffered conditions for the oxidation of an aliphatic and an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde. Later hydrogen peroxide also proved to work to remove the hypochlorite.

Sulfamic acid
Sulfamic acid, also known as amidosulfonic acid, amidosulfuric acid, aminosulfonic acid, sulphamic acid and sulfamidic acid, is a molecular compound with the formula H3NSO3. This colourless, water-soluble compound finds many applications. Sulfamic acid melts at 205 °C before decomposing at higher temperatures to water, sulfur trioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen.

Sulfamic acid (H3NSO3) may be considered an intermediate compound between sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and sulfamide (H4N2SO2), effectively replacing a hydroxyl (−OH) group with an amine (−NH2) group at each step. This pattern can extend no further in either direction without breaking down the sulfonyl (−SO2−) moiety.  Sulfamates are derivatives of sulfamic acid.

Lions' Gate stabbings
On 3 October 2015, a Palestinian resident of al-Bireh attacked the Benita family near the Lions' Gate in Jerusalem, as they were on their way to the Western Wall to pray. The attacker murdered Aaron Benita, the father of the family, and injured the mother Adele and their 2-year-old son Matan. Nehemia Lavi, a resident who heard screams and came to help was also murdered and his gun taken by the assailant. The attacker, 19 year old Muhanad Shafeq Halabi was shot and killed by police as he was firing on pedestrians.

Adele described Arab residents standing by and laughing as she was attacked, and telling her to "drop dead" when she pleaded for help for her son.

This attack and another stabbing attack, both of which took place during a religious festival that draws many Jews to the holy places in Jerusalem, resulted in Israeli authorities temporarily barring Arab residents of East Jerusalem from entering the walled Old City.

Criticism of multiculturalism
Criticism of multiculturalism questions the ideal of the hegemonic maintenance of distinct ethnic cultures within a country. Multiculturalism is a particular subject of debate in certain European nations that are associated with the idea of a nation state. Critics of multiculturalism may argue against cultural integration of different ethnic and cultural groups to the existing laws and values of the country. Alternatively critics may argue for assimilation of different ethnic and cultural groups to a single national identity. Others may put forward different alternatives again—such as Interculturalism, Racial color blindness, Polyculturalism, Cosmopolitanism, Integration of immigrants, Transnationalism, Integrative Anti-racism or Ethnonationalism.
