The women won gold a few days ago - today was the men doing the same! ![]() Jack Hughes scores the game winning goal in OT
Earlier in the game, Hughes took a stick to the face which caused damage to his teeth. Because hockey players are tougher than nails, he remained in the game and eventually scored a goal that will be part of US hockey lore forever. This photo after the game became an instant classic. ![]() Hughes loves his country
So do his teammates
You know who DOESN'T love their country?? The Huffington Post ![]() Back to the hockey team and an amazing patriotic moment

Farmer, 86, Rejects $15 Million Offer to Sell His Land to Data Center Developers ----- 10mm sockets go missing quite often. Here's a story about the US automakers contributing to that problem When Did US Automakers Switch To Metric Bolts? ![]() The 1970s were a turbulent time for the American auto industry. Not long after the decade's kick-off, the dense fog of the Malaise Era set in, giving us numerous love-it-or-hate-it models, many of which sported an iconic Bustleback design. Emissions standards were implemented, leading to the widescale adoption of catalytic converters (which was definitely a good idea) and brutally low engine outputs. However, there was one gleam of light that made life easier for professional mechanics and DIYers alike: it was when U.S. automakers began switching to metric bolts. The keyword here is began, because metric bolts didn't fully replace standard, otherwise known as Imperial, English, or SAE fasteners, for many years. Popular internet forums have no shortage of discussion revolving around this topic, but in terms of when America's big three automakers first committed, that would be the early '70s. Though, conversion was slow — to the point that some vehicles came equipped with both standard and metric fasteners.Much more at the link. ----- Got insomnia?

How to wear it: Start with a little accessory if you're shy, or go full monochromatic for that wow. Icy blue and Merlot? Yes. All the way yes. Budget pick: Snag an icy blue button-up or sweater from H&M or Amazon for under $40—perfect for layering. ![]() Splurge pick: A refined icy blue knit or tailored piece from Max Mara or Simone Rocha feels eternally elegant. ![]() 2.

These add movement and personality, ideal for dresses that go from morning coffee to evening plans. Budget pick: Lace-trim tops or fringe from Mango look so elevated. ![]() Splurge pick: Romantic looks from Victoria Beckham, Simone Rocha, or Chloé, pure runway romance. ![]() 4.

It's nostalgic but updated, perfect for casual spring days. Budget pick: Straight-leg or wide-leg from Uniqlo or Amazon under $60—great for mixing washes. ![]() Splurge pick: Slim or straight-leg from Celine, Khaite, or Dior turns it into an investment. ![]() 5. Versatile Dresses & Clever Layering Dresses are the real stars this season, adaptable, detailed, and so easy. Top styles: • Fringe, shirt dresses, crinkle-texture, drop-waist. • Clever layering (open cardigans, lightweight knits over dresses). • Slip dresses with '90s revival charm. Versatility is key—pieces that transition day to night or pack light for travel. Budget pick: Shirt dresses or textured minis from H&M or Zara around $50. ![]() Splurge pick: Lace-trimmed or sculptural from Dior or Altuzarra—timeless and special. ![]() Bonus Trends to Watch • Electric florals — bold, graphic prints. • '90s influences — slips, clean minimal black & white. • Artisanal touches — handcrafted details, bold textures.

I screwed up my action camera at the beach last year. Got seawater in it. I believed the hype about "waterproof to such and such."
Yeah, right... maybe in a swimming pool. Wave action changes things. Changes them into action cameras that no longer charge or transmit data over the cable. The camera still works, but in a pain-in-the-ass kind of way. So I replaced it and gave the damaged one to my wife, since she uses it way less - that one will be fine for her. But, of course, then I had to buy a waterproof case for it so that it doesn't happen again next time I go to the beach. And a suction mount and a wireless lavalier mic, because reasons. This is my FWP for the week. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at February 22, 2026 10:12 PM (BI5O2) 35

I ponder your fashion news. Reminds me of a widow I went out with for a couple of years way in the past. When her first husband went shopping with her at Nordstroms or Neman Marcus, he would take clothing off the rack, then hold it to her to see what the look was. After that he would throw it on the floor to see how it looked there. She would be mortified. I never did that, for which she was grateful.

My neph-mew Maceo (MAY-see-oh) was forever delivered from the pain and suffering of terminal heart and kidney disease at 2pm on 2/22. He was a fighter til the end, and got one last car ride in his mama's arms. He passed peacefully held by his mama with his unka (me) looking on. Sad but for the right reason. Those of you who truly know how amazing kitties can be will understand.

----------- Right after we outsourced the manufacturing to Canada and Mexico. I had a Chevy Silverado that was nearly unserviceable because of all the fucking weird ass metric and standard sized bolts, screws, fasteners, and every other piece of shit put on that truck.

What I learned: 1) As Runner said above, after the initial shock wore off, they are the sorest of sore losers. Most of them (and I'm sure all of them by the end of the week) stated that US didn't win, the Canadians lost. After all, didn't their team overwhelm the Americans with their masterful not-leading play for nearly the entire game? 2) A Canadian spectator estimated that in the arena crowd, Canadian fans outnumbered US fans 90% - 10%. HMMV. You can see that in the in the image above in the OP - lots of shrugging reds compared to the cheering Americans.

He wasn't the only American who played well, obviously. But he did play extremely well.

He also stopped 2 breakaways and turned aside a number of grade A scoring chances. As great as Hughes' goal was, Hellebuyck was the main reason the US won.

I often come back to the left calling the J6 protests an insurrection. Well, ok, let's run this through. Let's suppose a million armed Trump supporters descend on DC with a plan to work with Trump to stop the progression of the certification of the 2020 election. Then...it stops. And Congress and the SC flee or they do their damn jobs but the one thing that doesn't happen? The certification of the openly stolen 2020 election. So even here in the US or reaction to an open conspiracy against the country has been to...vote our way out of the problem, not take up arms. Posted by: 18-1 at February 22, 2026 11:22 PM (sKqQm) 239

The 3-on-3 overtime format (I see it in AHL games) is, easily, the best part of the game. Any game. Followed by a shootout if needed, the most dramatic finishing set-up in team sports.
The 3-on-3 actually permits some wide open hockey with emphasis on what makes the sport the best, when it's happening - fluid speed. No holding or stickwork or "checking" (i.e., these days, just hitting, usually from behind, within 3 feet of the boards, boring). Predictable and telling that so many don't like it. But watching some of the Olympic hockey, very disappointing. Mostly just more NHL, a tiny bit more playmaking on entering the zone, but not much. The 3K extra square feet of the international rink isn't enough to open up the game any more, probably mostly due to the size/athletic ability of players having increased so much.

Hellebuyck was outstanding. The Canadians have some amazing forwards as all of us hockey fans know. I think some of the rounding out of their roster left a little to be desired, and missing Crosby was a big loss.

The 1st Special Service Force was an elite American-Canadian unit that became known as the Devil's Brigade. The mission they trained for was cancelled and the Allied military not knowing what to do with a bunch of quite mad elite troopers dumped them at Anzio to terrorize the Germans.

There are several bitchy and complaining articles cited on Facebook about how the USA winning the hockey gold medal game was unsatisfactory and very unmutual of the US team. The saddest whine about "if only we had Crosby suited up..." Ahem. I believe the rules state that the team that puts the most points on the board at the close of play is the winner.

If you are in contact with them, make sure they have the numbers to the Canadian (I assume) embassy and consulates. Also the American ones.

It's a sad thing to watch what's happening to Canada.
They were brave, hard and tough fighters in WWII. They were in it before we were; Backing up Britain. Some of our people went to Canada, not to hide but to join the fight. In the sand box they were good fighters. Good shooters. So good they embarrassed Karen and were called home. I will pray for them. May they rise in righteousness again.

So even here in the US or reaction to an open conspiracy against the country has been to...vote our way out of the problem, not take up arms.
Posted by: 18-1 at February 22, 2026 11:22 PM (sKqQm) By the time Argentine President Isabel Perón had started the very first decrees to start arresting terrorists and revolutionaries out of hand, the Cuban backed revolutionaries had been killing robbing and bombing for about 10 years with increasing pressure. Generals Videla and later Pinochet in Chile increased the tempo and scotched the insurgencies eventually, and it took a lot of resolve to end. And the traces did not go away since the revolutionaries actually understood media far better than the dictatorships. Of course this time may be different because of the longer experience with counter insurgency and more savvy media abilities. Also Cuba is not able to funnel money in to support things . . . Nor Venezuela or the funding supported by the fastboat drug smugglers. And China is having issues of its own. Posted by: Kindltot at February 22, 2026 11:41 PM (rbvCR) 276

Just waitin' for the Politico's/Bacon to Sizzle this week
What to watch: The Three Specific Emails (JPMorgan/Epstein Context) The "Birthday Book" Outreach (2011): The email outlines how the bank could use Epstein's personal relationships with these men to secure them as "Ultra High Net Worth" (UHNW) clients. The Problem for Dimon: This contradicts his 2023 testimony that he was unaware of Epstein's activities. Investigators argue that "the top floor" of the bank was actively profiting from Epstein’s "black book" long after his 2008 conviction. The "Wall of Cash" Email (2013): An internal JPMorgan email discussing Epstein as a "top-tier referral source" for the bank's "Wall of Cash" program. The email allegedly notes that Epstein was a primary bridge to international dignitaries and intelligence-linked figures, specifically mentioning that "compliance concerns" regarding his past conviction should be managed to keep the pipeline open. The Intelligence Link: This is where John Brennan’s name frequently surfaces in the 2026 inquiry. And both Clinton's walking into Darkest Erebus itself (in a blue dress no less!)

211 The US system acts as a safety valve for Canadian patients who can't wait for treatment. Put you have to pay.
--- Back in the 90's my ex boss Eric moved from Oregon to Toronto Canada where he is originally from. One day his wife was experiencing sever abdominal pain so they rushed her to a hospital in Toronto. They made her an appointment for 3 days later and gave her a prescription for some pain killers. They went to 2 other hospitals and were told the basically the same thing. Frustrated, they crossed over into Buffalo where the ER took her in immediately and removed her (already ruptured) appendix and stitched her up. The doctor told them that she was about an hour from certain death. THIS IS A ROUTINE PROCEDURE WITH A 1.8% MORTALITY RATE IN AMERICA. She would have died in Canada but it would have been free*. *Canada has one of the highest combined tax burdens in the world.

and #3
The "Moscow/Russian" Date Email (2010): An email from Epstein to a high-ranking contact (recently linked to the broader "Clinton network" in the files) regarding a meeting with a "clever, beautiful, trustworthy" Russian woman. The Significance: This email is being used by the Trump DOJ to prove that Epstein was acting as a "broker" for foreign assets. If Brennan or Dimon knew Epstein was facilitating meetings between US elites and foreign nationals, their "doing nothing" moves from negligence to a national security failure.

I was listening to some analysis/reaction videos to some of the Epstein stuff and they are trying to figure out how to deal with how close Epstein seems to be to Ehud Barak.
Yes Barak is an important Israeli pol. But he's important because he was the left's great hope to defeat Bibi and the Israeli right. If they want to tie Epstein to Israel then he is tied very specifically to the Israeli left, which like the rest of the Western left is just...the left.

San Blas? Posted by: nurse ratched at February 22, 2026 11:23 PM (A5RD0) Went to San Blas twice during Spring break back in college. One of the guys that went with us had a brother living there. This was before it was discovered, just a sleeping fishing village on the Pacific coast. We hired a guy to take us out a few miles to catch dolphins. We'd give our catch to a restaurant and they would make a meal out of the fish for us. The beaches were wide and the water was very shallow a long ways out. We would teach local kids how to swim and their parents would feed us fresh shrimp and drinks. It had a small navy station there and once a week the sailors would parade through town. Very few of the uniforms match. Posted by: Beartooth at February 22, 2026 11:50 PM (ggkmJ) 294
