Quote I “Although I love a good PR story, this isn’t one of them. Circa Resort & Casino is cooperating with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in this investigation. We greatly appreciate their efforts to date and cannot comment further due to an ongoing investigation.”
Derek Stevens, CEO of Circa, said in a statement.
Quote II “No one else in the establishment did anything. And so, once he saw his mother get severely hit, he took action,” community activist Ja’Mal Green.
Quote III “There are many, many men who are interested in and better at sports than the best women,” Yenor said in a statement to Campus Reform. “This is why we have women's sports. Men being able to compete in women's sports will allow men to win in women's sports." Boise State professor Scott Yenor
US Coast Guard appears to have recovered debris with human remains from the Titan vessel.
Missing Titanic sub: Coast Guard says 'presumed human remains' found in debris field of Titan submersible One week after the Titanic-bound Titan submersible imploded, the Coast Guard says “presumed human remains” were recovered “within the wreckage” of the vessel. “The evidence will provide investigators from several international jurisdictions with critical insights into the cause of this tragedy,” Marine Board of Investigation Chairman Jason Neubaue said in a statement. “There is still a substantial amount of work to be done to understand the factors that led to the catastrophic loss of the TITAN and help ensure a similar tragedy does not occur again.”

You Can Bury Your Dead at Sea (Because It’s Free, Eco-Friendly, and Totally Legal)
There's no law that says you can't drop corpses into the ocean. The American death industry is a racket. Everything is overpriced. The average coffin will cost between $2,000–$5,000, and according to some sources, the cost of a cremation averages between $4,000 and $7,000 per body—and that’s not including the memorial service. But you don’t have to settle for an overpriced burial or immolation. Instead, you can have your loved one buried at sea. I’m serious. Over 2,500 people chose this funerary option in 2020 alone (mostly in Florida—go figure.) There are companies that offer full service sea burials of both intact bodies and cremains, but their prices seem fairly steep, and it’s nothing you can’t do yourself if you have access to a boat and a DIY spirit, because the process is totally legal to carry out yourself. All you need is a free permit and the wherewithal to get yourself and your dearly departed cargo three miles off the coast.
US Patent and Trademark Office notifies filers of years-long data leak
The federal government agency responsible for granting patents and trademarks has confirmed it inadvertently exposed about 61,000 filers’ private addresses in a years-long data spill. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) said in a notice sent to affected trademark applicants that their private domicile address — often their home address — inadvertently appeared in public records between February 2020 and March 2023. U.S. law requires applicants to include their private address when submitting a trademark application in efforts to crack down on fraudulent trademark filings.

Change is a constant. From a prosperous neighborhood and business to the challenge of a lifetime.
The Butchers Are in Trouble G. Esposito is gone, and now Staubitz is struggling. “We were a bunch of idiots from the city,” says John McFadden Jr., pointing to a time-faded photograph mounted on the back wall at Staubitz Market, the city’s oldest butcher shop. It opened in 1917. The photograph was taken in 1987. Six men in a rubber raft, paddles in hand and wearing bright-orange wet suits, careen geekily through Class V rapids on the Lehigh River. McFadden Jr. points to a grimacing man in a blue beanie: “See, there’s Dad.” His father, John McFadden Sr., who took over the butcher shop in 1967, died last October. “It was freezing cold, and we thought the wet suits would keep us warm and dry,” recalls his son. At some point after the photo was taken, the elder McFadden toppled into the white water, caroming backward downriver while his son frantically yelled for him to turn around so as to better see any hazards approaching — boulders, downed branches, holes. “It was terrible,” McFadden Jr. says. Then he points to an adjacent photo, same setup, slightly calmer water. “But we went the next year too.” There are other photos in the shop. Behind the counter, various large pictures of the butchers — from 1920, 1980, 1990, and 2007 — testify to the longevity of the institution. A wooden booth in the back corner is as old as the store itself. Once, a cashier sat inside, ringing up a steady stream of customers. Now, it’s mostly used by one of the shop’s six employees as a place to eat lunch in solitude. Although its history is long, the butcher shop’s future might be short. A few weeks ago, McFadden Jr. started a GoFundMe campaign titled, simply, “Save Staubitz Market.” He wrote, “I’m the son of John McFadden Sr., the former owner of Staubitz Market. Working side-by-side with my father since I was 11 years old, we have served the community and its families for almost 3 decades. Sadly, my father passed suddenly and unexpectedly leaving the state of the business in shambles.”

The pilot of a private plane released packages of drugs over the Ardèche region, France, while being chased by a Rafale fighter jet on June 24, 2024. The sequence of events began when the passenger plane coming from Germany into France was detected over the restricted airspace near the Fessenheim nuclear power plant in Alsace. Despite repeated warnings from the air operations command, the pilot chose not to respond and continued the flight.

My Great Uncle Chubby chose this way to go. It's funny, he bitched about serving in the Navy for 60 years but yet, when it came that time. . .
A hell of a guy - survived the torpedoing of the USS Renshaw by a sub. Damn near blew her in half but yet, herculean DC efforts saved the ship and she made it back to San Pedro Bay for repairs. Temporary repairs were applied by the repair ship Prometheus.
Of course.

Good friend of mine was a Bexar County, TX (San Antonio), Deputy Sheriff, and photographer at the County Morgue, where such a corpse attained bouyancy, bringing the cylinder head up for the ride. Yep, that's how much gas a decaying gut can produce.
Worse part though? The inflated corpse chose that moment on the autopsy table to "give up the ghost", if you will. Explosded, spewing hot rot juices all over my friend.
He wore a paper bunny-suit home, the kind you see CSI wearing so as to not contaminate a crime scene. That uniform of his went into the incinerator, as did the leather gunbelt, holster, shoes, socks, underwear, the works.
Showers? I think he LIVED in the shower for about a week, afterwards.

The congregations tend to be, but it's been a while since I've seen a reliable LCMS pastor.
It seems my primary purpose is to argue with the clergy about why their wrongheaded scheme won't actually grow the church so everyone knows ahead of time why it fails, everyone gets pissed, and a quarter or so of the congregation leaves.

Of course, you don't get to watch, so who knows? They pick up the deceased and return ashes in two or three weeks. Bodies are used for research or skin grafts, that type of stuff. Oh, if you're considering that, take out all gold and silver fillings, they keep that if you don't.

Of course downsides and the US does not explode into the Arsenal of Democracy twenty years later.

They're worse than heretics. They want to wipe out traditional Christianity as though it never existed. History began when they were born. If a millennia old tradition inconveniences them, then it goes in the trash. Not just for them. for everyone.

Nonna was the head cook at my high school. We kids really weren't interested in the full tray normal cafeteria food. So, she'd improvise - her 'Thanksgiving in a bowl' was legendary: Mashed potatoes with white turkey gravy and big chunks of turkey in it. Also - fried dough. She called them Pizza Fritta's. Sprinkled with powdered sugar hot from the fryer - oh my.
No green jello squares with white grapes and shredded carrots on top though.

In that case, the Germans defeat France and then Russia. The Germans help the Austro-Hungarian Empire stomp the Balkan nations into Balkan-paste, during or immediately after the war against Russia. Then the Germans incorporate the Austro-Hungarian Empire into the German Empire. And the British are worried, very worried, wishing they had gotten in in 1914.

Most people would agree with you on the likelihood of a Franco-German war happening eventually, though not everyone. Besides France's reliance on a Russian alliance, the French Left in 1914 was actually interested in some kind of rapprochement with Germany (which was after all the birthplace of socialism as an organized political force), and might have actively pursued it had peace lasted a bit longer.
Then again, Alsace-Lorraine blah blah blah.

Germany coveted land in Eastern Europe and saw Russia as a rising threat that would become too powerful to beat if they waited too long to cut them down.

There is a lot of arguments and theorizing in the Austrian school about self organization in free societies.

As per languages, I have spent an hour a day for the last seven months learning French. It was a fantastic waste of time because I encounter the need to speak Spanish every day, and never French in this A.O.
The dirty little secret is the French don’t move here. And they teach their kids English so well in school now, you will likely not encounter a native French speaker here without at least passable English.

In 21020 I was under the plume of one of the big fires in the Cascades in Oregon, and the first day was the day without a sunrise, and the first week had me ready to start hunting people in the street out of frustration. The good news was it cooled the summer heat down, and the other good thing is that it taught me to read NOAA satellite shots and the projections from the chem and wind overlays at https://earth.nullschool.net/

LEPRECHAUNS RUNNING AMOK in the People's Republic!
"In the spring of 1974, teenager Jane Woodruff was walking to high school in Lexington (MA) with a friend when they saw something - or rather someone - sitting in patch of weeds on the side of the road. It was a leprechaun.
"'Did you see that?' they exclaimed in unison. Surprisingly enough, both described the leprechaun the same way: green clothes, a long thin curved golden pipe between his lips and a flopped-over conical cap" (Janet Bord, Fairies: Real Encounters with Little People (1997), p.73)
A year later, Woodruff and a friend named Orin saw hundreds of small fairies dancing in a field of blue wildflowers in the town of Ashby, MA. The fairies were only around 5 inches tall.

What gets me is this is the second time in a month the Canadian wildfires have attacked. I guess Covid makes this sting, atttacks from abroad that harm us. I am not chicken little, if you are in the unlucky area you are being harmed. I have pics of basically nothing; aka the horizon.
I blame woke mendacity. I want us to send firefighting planes to end it. If they need armed escorts, well, that is a commander’s decision.

Wildfires happen. Wind happens. There's a series of low pressure fronts working to push the smoke south and east towards you. Please look up Cliff Mass. he's a weather guy and had some excellent analysis of how and why the last smoke event happened.
Drink water. Flush your eyes. Use a neti pot to flush out your sinuses. I was blowing brown and orange snot for a week in 2020. It was horrible and scary. The whole region smelled like a campfire.
It's ok. Tell that caveman part of your brain you won't get burned up.

I actually keep an eye on this sort of thing, I use the Nullschool site, the COsc band overlay under Chem to search for fires since they are a big emitter of that as well
The GOES site gives me the last couple hours of where the smoke is going and where it came from.
Generally the biggest driver of forest fires is neglect, the refusal to do thinning and commercial harvest of "wilderness areas" that cause massive fires due to build of of dead, dying wood and understory brush that acts as kindling and fuel to the forests and cause catastrophic wildfires.

Today, the 29th, is the latest sunset per mean time for us at 35Nish latitude. For 40N, that occurred the 27th. For Miami, it will occur on July 1.
After the sunrise gets later and sunset gets earlier. The Cycle repeats. Like clockwork.
And so far, we've picked about 32 lbs of Contender beans. Got a nice little pile of potatoes as well, and cut a few cabbage heads. My first corn isn't going to be ready by July 4th, doesn't look like, probably the week after that.

Episode of Green Acres on MeTV tonight.
Mr. Douglass and the others were setting out 'maters. But it came a late frost, and they had to "pull 'em up" back in the house.
There was some concern about an accurate weather report. Some said it was going to hail, others said it was going to snow. Oliver calls the USDA crop weather forecasting service in Washington. They tell him it's going to be warm.
Mr. Kimball used the most accurate weather report he knows, which is the Poor Richard's Almanac. It's almost infallible, he said. Well, not almost. And not infallible. It is right every so often. Well, maybe not so often.

Nobody likes anyone who tells the community at large something bad is going to happen without a major direction change.
Families split, which in communities results in near-apocalypse, and people in those communities can't comprehend ideological or theological breaks. They try to make bridges, and then condemn the early adopters who saw it coming.
Brother will turn on Brother and nobody wants that, but it always happens and anyone thinking it can't happen again, is stupid.

I disagree that overpriced is a fake word. It goes back to the 16th century, and there are nuances of meaning vs expensive.
Something can be expensive, but not overpriced. Overpriced means the price is more than it's worth.
It's also a good put down for self-important people, a synonym of overrated.

I had to look up Alvy Moore, (1921 - 1997) who played Hank Kimball. He was a Marine, and fought at Iowa Jima.
He admitted he had to us cue cards a lot for Hank's dialogue. The convoluted, insane rambling was hard to remember exactly.
Fred Ziffel, played by Hank Patterson was also a beloved character. At the time of Green Acres, Patterson was nearly deaf, couldn't hear his cues. So, they had someone lie on the floor with a little stick out of frame to tap him on the ankle when it was time to say his lines.

Well. I just learned something about "sirrah". I remember that from Shakespeare, and loved it, and liked the alliteration above, of course.
But this I did not know: It was actually used contemptuously. It was form of address, of "sir", to some *inferior*.

Speaking of contemptuous put-downs, a good one I learned recently, a Frog word, is "chefaillon", somewhat similar to "le petit chef".
It means "small time boss", some times translated as "shit-house boss". The little boss of the shit-house. Some self important "sirrah" who thinks he's all that, but ain't shit.
