Sadly, only one week later they showed up for a noise complaint at the home of the dog's adoptive family and shot the dog as he trotted toward the door. Officers on scene said the dog barked at them and they were in imminent fear for their lives. Internal affairs found their actions to be in compliance with department policy and cleared them of wrongdoing.

Mariah Hector began by explaining that her daughter had been bullied several times by students at the school since September.
Earlier that week, she said those same students jumped her daughter.
“I was angry because I had been trying to prevent this from happening all year,” she explained. “My daughter was jumped, and her hair was pulled out of her scalp. It was by a number of girls and a boy. They also threw a trash can on her.”
Hector shared a video with Channel 9 of the incident. She said the bullying has been going on since the beginning of the school year.
“I came to speak to the administration,” she explained. “I felt like they just brushed it off and didn’t take it seriously.”
After several meetings with school officials, Hector said a non-contact order between her daughter and the group of students involved had been issued.
However, on Monday, Hector said she received a call from her niece saying her daughter had been jumped. And as a parent, she said she felt like the school wasn’t protecting her child.

Reentry involves extreme heat and pressure — very hard to withstand — Only advanced ceramics and carbon-based materials can survive it ... — CO₂ plasma releases free oxygen, which can burn the heat shield
Mars atmosphere is approx. 95% CO2.
Heatshield entering Mars will encounter more then 2x atomic oxygen compared to earth.

It always comes back to literal shit. Tony Villaraigosa, who is running for California governor, yelled at Angelenos when he was mayor, "We clean your toilets!" At the instigation of a couple of radio hosts, people mailed toilet brushes by the case to City Hall.
And then Kelly Osbourne did it on The View: "If you kick out Latinos, who will clean toilets?"
Fvck, these are the people who were outraged at Trump eating a taco bowl at Trump Tower and tweeting "I love Hispanics!" (some of his best trollery ever)

In some ways they don’t. If you make actual cuts, you piss people off. Then those people come for your head.
If it were just a few smaller cuts, you can do fine, but if you are goring the oxen of several large groups, they’re going to fight against you and probably get you bounced from Congress.

OMB just reviewed the new CBO score of the One Big Beautiful bill. It confirms what we knew about the bill at House passage. The bill REDUCES deficits by $1.4 trillion over ten years when you adjust for CBO's one big gimmick--not using a realistic current policy baseline.
It includes $1.7 trillion in mandatory savings, the most in history.
If you care about deficits and debt, this bill dramatically improves the fiscal picture.

Kornbluth tells the story with a lot more finesse than I could relate it here, so I’ll let you dig it up and read it on your own.

Easy to write.
Opening scene: Picard orders tea from the wall. Riker comes on and hikes a foot over the back of the chair. They discuss the upcoming visit to a planet and diplomacy required.
A red alert sounds, and the pair rushes to the bridge. A huge ship has appeared and is opening fire on the Enterprise.
Troi: "I sense hostility!"
Worf: "We must raise shields and open fire or we will be destroyed!"
Picard: "No. That will just create a spiral of violence that will kill us all. Open up hailing frequencies."
Dr Crusher: "Captain, ten people have been severely harmed by something exploding in the wall from that last hit!"
Picard: "We cannot be driven by vengeance."
Dr Crusher: "They have broken bones, I have no idea how to set a bone! Our medicine has advanced so far that simple remedies are beyond me!"
Wesley: "I think if we just---"
Everyone: "Shut up Wesley!!!"
LaForge: "Captain, the holodeck has seized control of the ship and created the space ship outside that is attacking us!"
Worf: "We need to dismantle that damned thing and space the pieces!"
Picard: "That's just what they would expect us to do. We must talk to the holodeck!"

Was reading in the last thread about the mental healthcare industry.
While there are good strategies and good therapists, there are certainly some bad ones. I saw someone for about 6 months after finishing breast cancer treatment. He specialized in folks who had to face serious health issues and we got into my daddy issues. It was very helpful. I kept a journal for a bit and now, going back, I can see how my visits with him were very helpful.
I’ve seen several therapists and he was the first one who helped me.
Please. If you need help, don’t give up. Try again. And it’s not the same as a beer with the guys at the VFW. I’m not discounting that, but a professional therapist can make a huge difference.

Default, devaluation or growth.
Default is throwing in the towel, and telling all the debtors they are screwed.
Devaluation is giving everyone a haircut, or suddenly declaring that the zeroes in the bills just got erased
Growth is what seems to be the administration's goal.
One of the problems is that the USD is the most sought after commodity, everyone needs it for clearing international debt. So everyone is happy if we make more of it, and that causes inflation. There are solutions to this outside of devaluation or default.

Never read either one. I'm thinking of the space station that vonBraun envisioned only much larger and more complex.
There could be stacked rings rotating east to west and opposing ring rotating north to south.

The difficulties always in the details, but, yes, we may learn enough as we go to pull it off first. We have got to get to Mars first! (Say, why is no one thinking of colonies under the Lunar surface - it’s a good way-station, energetically speaking, for going to Mars? Or should that be weigh-station?).

Bingo! The chemistry of the plasma formed during re-entry is complex as hell. I remember reading something about that just a while back. The relevant properties of that plasma can vary greatly with small changes in the species present. There was something they misunderestimated with the Apollo heat shield, which changed the pitching moment well beyond what they had guesstimated. But, they knew that and the design allowed for that.

Sounds good in theory, but space is BIG. Really, really big.
And the asteroids are NOT clumped together like they are in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. They are still very, very far apart from each other. The "asteroid belt" just means the average density of matter is slightly higher than it is in other parts of the solar system.

OMB just reviewed the new CBO score of the One Big Beautiful bill. It confirms what we knew about the bill at House passage. The bill REDUCES deficits by $1.4 trillion over ten years when you adjust for CBO's one big gimmick--not using a realistic current policy baseline. It includes $1.7 trillion in mandatory savings, the most in history. If you care about deficits and debt, this bill dramatically improves the fiscal picture.

Coriolis pseudo-forces in the rotating frame are killer to human vestibular system behavior. Talk about getting puke your guts out sick when you move around.
The solution is to minimize RPM. Large radius rotating slowly vs small radius rotating rapidly.
Now, dynamic stability is big problem as well, see the Intermediate Axis Theorem. Moving mass around in that rotating system is tricky. It would require a complex control system to keep the thing from tending to precess and wobble.

Snowplow driver Lucky Loughran testified today.
He did NOT see a body in the snow the evening John O'Keefe was murdered. First pass at 2:30a, second pass around 3:30a-4a(?), and third pass was blocked by emergency vehicles at 6:15a.
Interestingly, during the second pass, there was a Ford Edge parked where the body was subsequently found. Ford Edges are owned by multiple Albert family members.
And fucking mob lawyer (Whitey Bulger) Hank Brennan conducted the worst cross in history.
Lucky starts around 40 minutes in.
Karina Kolokithas, the next witness, is a hot 52(?) year old.
