State pulls X-rated East Harlem club's liquor license after Gothamist investigation
State officials have rescinded an East Harlem club's liquor license after a Gothamist investigation revealed the venue was operating as a de facto adult establishment despite city prohibitions.
The decision effectively closes Bodega Paradise and marks a victory for community members who spent months fighting what they saw as the Adams administration’s indifference to their concerns about the venue's X-rated activities.
The club opened in May after owner Alex Meskouris told Manhattan's Community Board 11 that the business would operate as a breakfast spot and sports bar, making no mention of adult entertainment.

The ONT Musical Interlude & TSA Disgust Emporium

&&&&&

*****

Believe it or not, once upon a time I was young. Never, and I mean Never would I have ever thought of doing this "Dark Joke".

A teenage wood shop apprentice in Turkey died after his co-workers inserted a high-pressure air hose up his rectum as a horrific “prank” — the latest incident in which the power tool has killed a young man by exploding his intestines.
The dark “joke” turned deadly Friday when Habip Aksoy and a friend allegedly overpowered Muhammed Kendirci, 15, and tied his hands at the woodworking center in Sanliurfa, according to local outlet Milliyet.
They allegedly forcibly removed his pants and shoved an air compressor tube into his anus — causing severe internal organ damage.

Go big or Go Genius Award Winner!

When you leave your car with a valet, you expect it to be safe, but that wasn't the case for a man who came to Cleveland for a medical procedure.
A 19-year-old Cleveland Clinic valet worker is being charged with aggravated speed, reckless operation, failure to show proof of financial responsibility and receiving stolen property after taking a Mercedes-Benz for a joyride while on the clock.

Forcibly sodomizing someone to death with a foreign object isn't so uncommon among the wonderful, oh-so-special Muslims (see Qaddafi).

126 Interesting to read that the devil is in the details regarding the President Trump Executive Order regarding the Muslim Brotherhood:

Why This EO Falls Short: Untouched Hubs and Global Reach

Your point about the EO's narrow scope is well-substantiated by the document itself and broader context. The MB, founded in 1928 in Egypt, operates as a decentralized transnational network with ideological, financial, and political arms spanning over 70 countries. Its "operational hubs" -- Qatar, Turkey, and Syria-linked networks -- remain unmentioned & unaffected. These are the MB's most resilient & influential elements, often shielded by host governments for geopolitical reasons (e.g., Qatar's role as a U.S. military base host, Turkey's NATO status).

Impact of the Gaps: These hubs enable the MB's "grand jihad" strategy, as outlined in the 1991 "Explanatory Memorandum" (unsealed in the Holy Land Foundation trial). They sustain the very activities you list -- U.S. financing (e.g., $100M+ to MB-linked U.S. nonprofits since 2010, per ISGAP reports), election influence (e.g., via voter mobilization in swing states), Hamas funding ($1.8B total since 2012)...

EBT needs a major DOGE review. I would guess at least 50% of the things that are EBT eligible need to be removed from being EBT eligible.

I bought a sad looking pumpkin pie at Wal-Mart today, just in case the Costco trip falls through. I wonder if it was made in China.

I buy miniature pumpkin pies at Wal Mart.
They're pretty good if not stale. They are 84 cents. They were 50 cents before Covid.

They are not made from actual miniature pumpkins

185 Local HEB has big pie display/counter at the front door, and one is greeted by the scents of warm pies (they keep a couple on a warming tray, the scallywags) as you struggle to recall what else you came there for...

Ditto. I had a list and kept walking. But they looked good.

They make "tiny wood stoves." I did not know that. Some people, who live full-time in their campers/RVs, put them inside.

Anyway, they're really cute.

187 Walmart has a good selection of miniatures. It's fun. Too bad they don't do fruitcake anymore.

If they did, they'd have to put UPC codes on some of their customers. I wonder if it would be a unit price, or a price per pound....

191 We didn't eat pumpkin pie where I grew up. It was sweet potato pie. That was good pie.

194 I saw something that you don't see every day: a highway snowplow, ass end in the ditch, stuck real good. They had traffic cones out, and a pickup from the highway service company was also there. Guess they were waiting on a big rig tow truck. Road conditions were not bad at all. My guess he was trying to clear an approach, and miscalculated.

199 AOP, I didn't realize snowplows were allowed to get stuck in the Great White North. There are no snowplows of any sort here, so no judgement. We just stay home when it is too cold.

See, I was trying to drift the truck around the corner.

Then I'd post it to my Instagram, and say "check out this snow drift!"

And, well, yeah.

They are basically a tandem-axle gravel truck, fitted with a big plow blade on the front. I made a road trip to Drumheller today, and must have met at least six of them. We had a 2-3 inch dump of snow last night. Paved roads were mostly clear and wet; it was not a difficult drive at all.

205 Oops. They forgot the Germans! They will invade China to right this slight!

Germans will get right to it once the platoon gets back from vacation, and the tank and plane are fixed
