Engaged Teacher Arrested For 'Making Out' With 5th Grade An engaged Wisconsin elementary school teacher was arrested for "making out" with a fifth-grade student on Wednesday (May 1). River Crest Elementary School teacher Madison Bergmann, 24, faces one count of first-degree sexual assault and was released on a $25,000 signature bond, according to charging documents obtained by CBS News. The parents of the 11-year-old boy overheard the child having a phone conversation with Bergmann earlier in the week, at which point they found texts between two in which she allegedly discussed multiple encounters inside the classroom, during lunch or after school, as well as how much she enjoyed him touching her and "making out," documents stated.

Good evening everyone.
Today was a day of finishing projects - Master BR painting, done! All stuff cleaned and drop cloths put away. Finished hanging a new screen door in the garage. Didn't even need to buy hardware for it - retrieved everything from my dozens of coffee can inventory saved for just this eventuality. Ran a short run of 14-2 to a new box in prep for hanging more LEDs in the garage. It was a good day. Posted by: Tonypete at May 06, 2024 09:52 PM (Fa6e8) 5

I don’t want to hear about Bill Clinton’s “legendary” political skills anymore (and thus derivatively about the skills of Clinton War Room runners James Carville and George Stephanopoulos). Clinton needed Ross Perot running as a spoiler third candidate to beat even Bush 41, who shot himself in the foot by promising not to raise taxes and doing it anyway. And here’s the more important point — if Bill Clinton were facing four criminal indictments: 1) a state one for raping Juanita Broaddrick; 2) a federal one for Whitewater; 3) another federal one for perjury for lying in a deposition re Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky; and 4) another state one for “Troopergate,” Clinton would never have emerged as the Democrat nominee or re-nominee for President. He would have been discarded by voters and by Democrat kingmakers faster than a dirty bubblegum wrapper. Compare President Trump. They’ve thrown EVERYTHING at him and he’s still leading in the polls over Biden, despite the MSM propping Biden up at every turn. Trump makes Bill Clinton look like a kindergarten politician. Trump has once-in-a-century political skills. Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:53 PM (ZdexC) Posted by: Robert at May 06, 2024 09:53 PM (xhufk) 11

NY Dem Who Voted For Law Meant to Ensnare President Trump Now Says Law is Unconstitutional After Rape Suit Against Him When Democrat politicians in New York passed the Adult Survivors Act to punish Donald Trump and provide the ability for E. Jean Carroll to go after Trump 30 years later, their Trump Derangement Syndrome blinded them to how it might impact them. The now-expired act allowed alleged victims to file civil lawsuits against their accused attackers within a specific window, even if the state’s statute of limitations had run out on their claims. In November, The Gateway Pundit reported on allegations of sexual assault against embattled New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) stemming from an incident in 1993. Now, Kevin Parker, a Democrat state senator representing Brooklyn, is calling the Adult Survivors Act unconstitutional, and yet he voted for it. The accusation against him occurred just before the law expired and stems from an incident in 2004. The New York Post reports: The state senator, along with every other member of the state Senate, had voted for the legislation in 2021. Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:55 PM (ZdexC) 14
Owen Gregorian @OwenGregorian 11h
Parker even touted his support of the law in a statement in which he denied the rape charges against him shortly after they were levied in November. “I voted in favor of the [Adult Survivors Act] to ensure all New Yorkers can seek justice and be heard,” Parker wrote of the legislation, which was also passed by the assembly, signed into law by Hochul in May 2022 and expired in November 2023. “These allegations are absolutely untrue. My work and advocacy will continue,” Parker said. Olga Jean-Baptiste alleges that when she was working with Parker on relief efforts for Haiti in 2004, he grabbed her by the wrists and forcibly raped her at her home. Parker’s behavior has caused concerns in the past. In 2018, he tweeted to a GOP staffer to “Kill yourself.” Candice Giove, who was the New York State Senate Majority’s deputy communications director, tweeted about Parker abusing his position after discovering that a placard found in a car parked in a bike lane belonged to Senator Parker. However, the license plate number on the placard did not match the vehicle. Read more: thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05... Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:56 PM (ZdexC) 15

Greetings Horde....
Today begins the first full week of retirement. This weekend we pulled the travel trailer we bought new last year and haven't used yet out of storage. On Friday I hooked it up to the house electric and filled the fresh water tank. I checked all the major systems for functionality including AC, heater, hot water, refrigerator, stove, plumbing, shower and toilet, and most importantly, the TV. Saturday we took it to Huntington State Beach for the day and opened the slide and basically just hung out with some friends who are more experienced campers than us. We enjoyed a first meal in the camper (Jersey Mike's subs). Before we left we were able to use the dump station to check out that system too. Sunday I installed upgraded locks on the two doors then we took it back to the storage place. I'm pretty comfortable pulling it even on L. A. freeways. We're planning on going up the coast in a few weeks with our friends on our inaugural camp trip. Posted by: Anonymous Rogue in Kalifornistan (ARiK) at May 06, 2024 10:11 PM (QGaXH) 47

MisHum,
I don't think Noem is taking flak for saying she met with Kim Jong Un. I believe she may have pulled a "Biden", and claimed in her book that she stared down the evil dictator - despite never actually meeting him. (I could be wrong on the facts, I only skimmed the furor.) However, if that is true, then I don't want her in any job at the dog-catcher level or above.

MONTREAL – The company building a major plant for electric vehicle batteries in Quebec says “homemade bombs” were found this morning at the construction site east of Montreal.
Paolo Cerruti, co-founder of Swedish manufacturer Northvolt, says company employees discovered bombs had been placed over the weekend under machinery “with clear intent to harm our workers.” He says the triggering devices did not work and the company contacted police.

49 Closest I ever got to a tornado was two blocks away. That's as close as I'd ever want to be. Yes, it did sound like a locomotive driving overhead.
So, goodeven' y'all. May you all be safe. Posted by: mindful webworker - twistin' the night away That happened here a few years ago. I laid in bed that night and thought, gee that's a loud wind. The next morning there was some pink fiberglass insulation in my front yard. Turns out a tornado took down trees and took roofs off houses a couple of blocks away. One of the streets I normally use was closed off for more than a week. I didn't even lose electricity. So, lucky. Posted by: nerdygirl at May 06, 2024 10:37 PM (0Htd1) 177

Getting stormy now. Big line of storm west of us. Radar forecast suggests the worst of it will slide north and mostly miss us. Fingers crossed.
Tulsa, June 1974, tornado just south of my house. As soon as it passed, I hear a knock on the door!! A soaked-to-the-skin friend of my little sister's was standing there shivering, and said, Hi! I was just in the neighborhood so I thought I'd drop by! He'd been driving and suddenly his car was floating, just a block west of my place.

So here's my cameo, sometimes in my darker hours I wonder whether the Goggle Algorithm is trying to make me weirder or is mostly a reflection of my nascent weirdness....
if you have the stomach for it, AND are willing to risk your digital fingerprint I encourage you to sample the AI generated musical idiocies that are out there. Bobo Bojangles is getting a cult following for a long dead AI fake 1960s performer. https://youtu.be/FlojoJSyhv0?si=68M53p4f3dQBpj1I His songs are often fecal or donkey copulatory in lyrical composition, this one directly mocks the fandom. Anyway our gag about "I watched Amy Schumer open for the Flaming Tampons in 1978" sadly seems to be the basis for a lot of insanity. Hope y'all are well, I took a pretty good tumble at work this afternoon....luckily both the road, the tactical vehicle I bounced off of and my arm survived.

Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:53 PM (ZdexC) Indeed. There is not one - not a single one - not one politician in this country, much less the world, who can campaign the way that Trump is. I'm really trying to think of one, and I cannot.

I'm used to cats, and this normally wouldn't bother me. But he's a Persian, and after three years he has finally found his voice, and his voice is horrible!

Sir William Herschel first observed Uranus on March 13, 1781. He thought he had found a comment. He officially reported it on April 26th. He notified the Astronomer Royal, Nevil Maskelyne (he was the first to calculate the mass of the Erf from astronomical observations). Maskelyne replied and said it didn't look like a comet to him, and it was maybe a new planet. By 1783, it was officially classified as a new planet of the solar system. Herschel wanted to name it after George III. Needless to say, this didn't fly. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at May 06, 2024 10:58 PM (w6EFb) 259

No snow or tornadoes here, thankfully.
But we did get a bunch of pea-sized hail this afternoon, just as I drove home from the store. Then, at home, had to sit in the car for a few minutes until it let up & I could get out without getting pelted and soaked. Temp dropped about 15 degrees in just a few minutes.

Uranus had been seen before, as far back as Hipparchus most likely. They thought it was a star. It was most definitely sighted in 1690, and catalogued as star, "34 Tauri", by John Flamsteed, the first Astronomer Royal. The position of Astronomer Royal is currently held by Sheila Jackson Lee, of course. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at May 06, 2024 11:02 PM (w6EFb) 272

I am thinking it is ether deposited from the lake Missoula flooding, or I contaminated it somehow. I will dig another batch to check.

I saw "Oh Brother" but don't remember the character you reference. That character might've been based on the real Pappy O'Daniel, perhaps. O'Daniel was a political rival of LBJ, & he once beat Lyndon Johnson in a U.S. Senate race. O'Daniel and his political allies stole that election. LBJ learned a hard lesson from that, and from then on Johnson did the stealing. Sen. O'Daniel was universally regarded as a buffoon when he was in the Senate.

Is the clay red, grey, or something else?
Posted by: Slip Mahoney at May 06, 2024 11:21 PM (V5BDR) what I have is a mix of yellow and blue clay, it is an area that has slid a couple of times and there had been erosion. I know from digging post holes in the area there are a couple of banks of pure blue clay down a couple of feet, but it has grown up a bit since I was in high school and I can't find the spots again. I have open pit fired some tiles from the raw clay and it comes out an orangy red, and it is very fragile. I am trying to get the roots and stuff out of it so I can maybe make something better. I may just have drilling mud, though. Posted by: Kindltot at May 06, 2024 11:33 PM (D7oie) 335

JFK was a PT driver.
Posted by: Braenyard at May 06, 2024 11:24 PM (lCWOD) JFK was a CRAPPY PT Boat driver. He was designated 4F but Daddy pulled strings to get him in the Navy, then on PTs. Then he proceeded to pull about every bone headed thing he could do. When they were hit... his Radioman was not on his station, and 4 out of 9 of his crew were asleep... which is why when Japanese destroyers were spotted, they never got the radio sent warning. He had also REMOVED his lifeboat, to TIE a 37 mm cannon to his bow... which is one reason the 'rescue' had to be so heroic. He should not have been decorated for that debacle, he should have been court martialed. Posted by: Romeo13 at May 06, 2024 11:37 PM (xaFKb) 339

Clinton needed Ross Perot running as a spoiler third candidate to beat even Bush 41, who shot himself in the foot by promising not to raise taxes and doing it anyway.
And here’s the more important point — if Bill Clinton were facing four criminal indictments: 1) a state one for raping Juanita Broaddrick; 2) a federal one for Whitewater; 3) another federal one for perjury for lying in a deposition re Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky; and 4) another state one for “Troopergate,” Clinton would never have emerged as the Democrat nominee or re-nominee for President. He would have been discarded by voters and by Democrat kingmakers faster than a dirty bubblegum wrapper. Compare President Trump. They’ve thrown EVERYTHING at him and he’s still leading in the polls over Biden, despite the MSM propping Biden up at every turn. Trump makes Bill Clinton look like a kindergarten politician. Trump has once-in-a-century political skills. Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:53 PM (ZdexC) You are just aching to be arrested, aren’t you?

Parker’s behavior has caused concerns in the past. In 2018, he tweeted to a GOP staffer to “Kill yourself.”
Candice Giove, who was the New York State Senate Majority’s deputy communications director, tweeted about Parker abusing his position after discovering that a placard found in a car parked in a bike lane belonged to Senator Parker. However, the license plate number on the placard did not match the vehicle. Read more: thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05... Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at May 06, 2024 09:56 PM (ZdexC) Found a photo.

The Elco 80ft class that PT-109 belonged to was originally armed with two twin .50s in turrets and an aft mounted Oerlikon 20mm. They retrofitted to the fore deck a 37mm salvaged from a P-39.
Late war Elco 80ft boats would get even more aggressively armed. They would still sport the twin .50s along with a single barrel Bofors 40mm aft and sometimes even one mounted forward. The heavy steel tubes for the early torpedoes would be deleted and simple light weight launchers for the Mk XIII torpedo would be fitted. That is the official load out for the Elcos and to some extent the 78ft Higgins, in the war zones even more armament would be fitted. Additional 20mms or added machine guns. Plus the depth charges. And in the MTO they even fitted small rocket launchers to PT boats but things got dicey in rough water with those after the arming pins got pulled.

"Earthquake Bombs", another name given to their type. Made to penetrate over 20 ft. of German heavy concrete and steel submarine bunker cover, they'd make short work out of Gazan loose soil and paper thin concrete tunnel linings.

I'm having more fun that the proverbial barrel full of monkeys with this weather station. Had another little burst of rain, accumulated .02" more for a total of 0.19" since midnight, "event total" of .095". I've got the barometer set pretty well, I think. The relative(altimeter) offset of the absolute (station) pressure reading. I'm good on that to within .01" (about 10' of altitude). I set it by looking up a pressure/altitude table using the "standard atmosphere" temp lapse rates and all that. It was within .01" of the all the surrounding airports. I notice the barometers on the personal weather stations around here and everywhere are all over the place. Nobody bothers to try to get that right. Some don't even attempt and it's obvious they are reporting unadjusted absolute pressures, and others use some offset from lord knows where. Timing is critical if you're using local airport values.

Thanks, JQ - likewise. Wife and I are currently watching Beat Bobby Flay, and I'm wondering for the umpteenth time how that guy gets away with putting hot peppers in everything he makes. Black Forest Chery Cake with habaneros. Key Lime Pie with a Carolina Reaper zest. I'm exaggerating obviously, but not overly much.

Pretty good, considering. For the past couple of weeks, she's been having the dreaded "restless legs" and gets up about right now and just has to sit up. It's bad when she's lying down.

JQ, crab and swiss omelet does sound good. In re Bobby Flay's compulsion to add peppers, it brings to mind one of the most horrible ingredients I can imagine. My youngest niece's husband puts heavy amounts of pickle into chicken or turkey dressing. I never know if people outside the Deep South use the term "dressing," but it's similar to stuffing and pretty much a staple of Thanksgiving and/or Christmas feasts, served along with the turkey.
Pickles. That's how they cooked it in his family. I just grit my teeth and say, remember, he's a decent guy and he treats my niece really well, and hope somebody else makes dressing next time around. Posted by: John Drake Nearing The Caspian Sea at May 07, 2024 03:56 AM (u/Zei) 535

I hate it, but I'm reconsidering putting in my retirement papers this month and waiting until a little later in the summer.
Keep in mind a few months is a big deal when you're relocating that far. It took me about 5 months to relocate from Washington State to New Mexico. That time included searching for a place to buy, buying the place and all the related tasks that go with that, hiring a moving company, and finally making the move. When you move north you start running into the reality that you have a real winter which makes moving less desirable. Pulling the trigger on retiring and relocating is a highly personal decision, but it is also a logistics issue and that shouldn't get lost in the decision-making process.

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius I was under the impression you had already been to Indiana. That's kind of a prerequisite. Doing doing those relocation visits are so much easier when you don't have to deal with employment. When I made my move I was laser focused on getting the details nailed down and not having a job made it so much simpler. The same can be said for the move. The logistics of packing up an entire life and moving halfway across a continent is not a trivial exercise. Because I was highly organized about what I was doing, I was able to orchestrate everything perfectly and that took up most of my time. I couldn't even imagine trying to run all that stuff down while working. Posted by: Lost in Space at May 07, 2024 04:29 AM (J88gf) 555
