----- What's your guess as to why this woman did what she did? 28-Year-Old Woman Impersonates 16-Year-Old High School Student at New York High School for Weeks
A 28-year-old New York woman was arrested at a school campus in the Bronx and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, trespassing, and criminal impersonation after enrolling at the school as a 16-year-old girl, under a fake name. Last month, Kacy Claassen enrolled at the Westchester Square Academy as Shamara Rashad, born in 2010, who had just moved to New York from Ohio with her sister. She attended classes for about two weeks and was even issued a school ID with her fake name and age, but then someone discovered her social media profiles. *** One of the woman’s social media pages listed her birth date as July 29, 1997, and one photo showed her holding a baby girl. In one of her posts she admits that she has a beautiful daughter.
OK, have you made your guess yet?
Repeatedly confronted about her identity, the 28-year-old admitted that she had lied, claiming that a friend had advised her to enroll so she would qualify for more social assistance. Police believe that Kacy Claassen was trying to cash in on some sort of benefits scheme, but they didn’t go into details.Ridiculous, yes. Unbelievable, no. Socialism sucks. And it breeds behavior like this. ----- My fellow golf nuts will understand

• Statement necklines and sleeves — Cat-eye shapes, halter styles, and dramatic off-the-shoulder or long, flowing sleeves.
• Corsetry and bows — Exposed boning, front bows, and micro embellishments for a touch of whimsy.
• Subtle shimmer and texture — Sequins, metallic threads, and ethereal tulle for that red-carpet glow without going overboard. Two-piece separates and bridal midis are also gaining traction for modern, fashion-forward brides who want versatility. These trends offer something for every body type and wedding vibe—from garden romantics to black-tie ballrooms.
Mother of the Bride (and Groom) Trends: Sophisticated, Comfortable, and Photogenic Mothers are done with “frumpy” expectations. In 2026, MOB and MOG dresses are all about timeless elegance with modern flair. Think polished silhouettes that flatter real bodies—column shapes, refined A-lines, and flowing chiffon that moves beautifully for dancing and photos.
Key trends include:
• Luxurious, wearable fabrics — Crepe, mikado, organza, and chiffon with subtle sheen and texture.
• Elegant details — Halter necklines, one-shoulder styles, capes, ruffles, soft sleeves, and focused embellishments like beads or sequins (never overwhelming).
• Color palettes — Soft neutrals (champagne, taupe, dove gray), muted pastels (sage, dusty blue, blush), rich jewel tones (emerald, sapphire, plum), and even navy or black when styled elegantly. Metallics and soft shimmer add glamour.
Pant suits and chic midis are also popular for mothers who want comfort without sacrificing style. The goal? A look that feels regal, confident, and perfectly coordinated with the wedding’s aesthetic. Wedding Guest Trends: Expressive, Elevated, and Fun Guests in 2026 are embracing more-is-more while staying respectful of the couple’s vision.
Standout trends:
• Icy pink and soft pastels — The pastel of the season, perfect for spring and summer weddings.
• Bold prints and florals — Fawn (deer-inspired) motifs, vibrant jacquards, and flowy florals that photograph beautifully.
• Dramatic silhouettes — Drop-waist dresses, capes, statement sleeves, asymmetrical hems, and fluid maxis or jumpsuits.
• Texture and shine — Satin slips, ethereal chiffon, beading, and elevated details that feel special but wearable. Seasonal color palettes are helping guests coordinate effortlessly: butter yellow and lavender for spring; cobalt blue and fuchsia for summer. Neutrals and metallics work year-round, and expressive prints let personalities shine.
Final Tips for 2026 Wedding Style
• Coordinate thoughtfully — Brides, share your color palette and vibe with your moms and closest guests. Subtle coordination looks intentional, not matchy-matchy.
• Prioritize comfort — All-day events mean movement is key. Test your outfit for dancing, sitting, and photos.
• Personalize it — The best looks feel like you—whether that’s a sleek minimalist gown, a beaded cape, or a bold floral maxi. 2026 weddings are all about celebrating love in style that feels fresh, flattering, and full of joy. Whether you’re walking down the aisle, dabbing tears in the front row, or raising a glass on the dance floor, these trends ensure everyone looks and feels their absolute best. ----- Thanks, Piper!

Been to Montana twice, chasing elk in the mountains just east of Missoula. Buddy and I were hiking 12-26 miles a day - 35 lb pack, 11-12 lb rifle and a substantial handgun. Camped on the river where A River Runs Through It was supposedly shot. Local ranchers told us that we were the talk of the town - they couldn’t believe that we could do that sort of thing. “We thought everybody from back East was soft…”. Great place. Love to go back again sometime

Yes, because I saw the front of the dress, too, so I have the advantage. She looks like an Ancient Greek woman. That is actually my favorite dress, I love the blue bow.
Posted by: Piper at May 10, 2026 10:23 PM (Dd38x)
After all the purple prose, I was expecting a disaster in the pictures. But they were mostly okay.
I wonder about the woman on the bottom-left of the second jpg..... that is a bridal gown, with some lace in the middle, right? Not a separate skirt and top showing off her midriff? Cuz that would be tacky.
And the woman in the 2nd row on the right in the 3rd jpg..... she needs to pull her dress up a bit. Cleavage is acceptable in a wedding dress. Sideboob is for the bridesmaids.

From the content: I figured the would-be-HSer was just stalking some poolboy love-interest.
Wedding content: The bridal dresses are all lovely. The mother-dresses are mostly fine but that purple-pink number looks like a bathrobe, opening in front like that - gauche! Lots of people in those pictures need to eat a sandwich, or some pizza.

I like the blue bow on that dress. So simple but the dress is beautifully tailored.
I like the second dress except the pointy waistline.
I mostly like clean, elegant dresses. They look so simple but are impeccably made.

We're expecting rain again tomorrow, but not until midday, so I'll be able to work out around dawn. Later this week I have to call the IRS. They sent me a letter saying they can't send me my refund because I didn't provide a bank account. But I told them on the form to apply the money to my 2026 taxes. I guess they're not used to someone doing that, despite the line on the 1040 form specifically for that. I need to talk to somebody.

That’s why Trotsky ended up in Turkey, and then Norway, and then Mexico. They murdered his family, and eventually got him, too. He was invited to testify before the congressional Dies committee, but that didn’t happen.
There was much confusion over the years with the party faithful, because, again no dissent was allowed. When the Nazis and Communists agreed to carve up Poland, they signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, which was quite a lot to swallow.
They immediately went into a propaganda spin where they were “antiwar” and demanded that the US stay out of any talk about war or supporting Great Britain by supplying arms. They did a 180 overnight.

After "Heatseeker" charted in 2002 (off his sixth studio album Engage The Enzyme), he did not chart again for over two decades, until "Fun Part" was released as a non-album single in 2024(!!!). So, yeah, he's still around and making music, looks like he's even experimenting with adding AI elements -- and at his age! I had no idea until I looked into it for his birthday.
To be clear: even more than his earlier crossover hits, "Fun Part" is solidly in the rhythm music genre, which I like -- kind of tranced out there for a bit -- but some don't. You'll know which camp you're in.

rhomboid,
This is a survey they do in the off years from the census.
Our address was "selected " and they want to come here for the initial "interview " then once a month for four months after.
Last year we managed to avoid them and thought we were done with them.
Noooooo,they are back.
They want to know all about our finances.
Hubby is hilarious. He said everything is online, so fuck them.
They are so sneaky. They ring the doorbell and we don't answer. They then stick some shit flyer in the screen door frame and then park down the street to see if we get the flyer off the door.

The ScarJo movie is the only one where the Major gets her artificial body as an adult. In the original story, the Major has been a full-body cyborg since she was a young child. That's why she's better at it than everyone else; she grew up with it.
At one point Batou asks her why she insists on staying in a female "chassis" since a bigger male one would be better for combat.....

But Islam in the autonomous regions, of which the USSR/Russia has many, is the denatured and definitely de-politicized version shaped by decades of Soviet infiltration and vivid hints such as mass murder and deportation by Stalin. Ditto in the former republics, where the local oligarchs running things have no more patience for political Islam than Moscow.
Chechnya's a special case. Obviously salafism and jihadism took root there following the Soviet collapse (and to some extent next door in Dagestan). But Russia dealt with it in their typically gentle and sophisticated manner, and for a long time the best Chechen jihadis are outside the country afflicting the rest of us (by far the best of the jihadi crop).

I learn crap every day with this stuff, stuff I should've have known, but didn't. I always took conjunction to mean some subjective sense of "very close together".
Well, turns out that a conjunction is defined precisely as when two objects are at the same right ascension *or* ecliptic longitude. Which one depends on which is important, which gets complicated, but for planets it's generally RA. The two moments will be very close for planets close to the ecliptic anyway.
Now, the moment when two objects reach their closet approach, the minimum angular separation in the sky is called an "appulse", and those moments will be different.

But then I saw a clip where he was drunkenly streaming at a Renaissance Fair, and commenting on the rear end of a 10-year-old girl.

Do not, for the love of all that is holy, plant purple fountain grass! Our house on base in Texas had some when we moved in, and it kept growing like crazy during a two-year drought. Its blades are sharp, too, so it would cut our legs as we walked down the sidewalk if we didn't trim it for a month.

Japanese all-girl power metal band.
They sing in English. With, um, a bit of an accent.
Youtube's auto-generated closed captions decided it must be..... Russian. It even translated 2 or 3 words!

Debby,
Thank you and I hope you had a wonderful day.
It was quiet here today. Family lives four blocks away and two of the grandchild have been sick for four days and no one could come visit.
We have no problem with that.
Hubby has an autinmodin disease and the family tries to protect him.

Speaking of Ghost In The Shell, the first two openings for the anime were done by a Russian singer, which is why it sounds a bit off.

This was disturbing to my good Catholic mother-in-law.
The first time she came to Oklahoma to visit, she met my mother. And that's when she came to understand, that is not how most people get married, even in Oklahoma.
I miss them both so much.
This concludes our Mothers Day broadcast day.

Origa. (The Japanese transliteration of "Olga.")
The first song was trilingual: Russian, English, and Latin. For a Japanese TV series.
Origa passed at the age of 44. Heart failure or lung cancer, depending on who you ask.

I haven't watched recent anime for awhile (too much isekai), but when I was watching it, there seemed to be a rule that all opening and closing songs had to have at least one English word in them. Or German, in the case of Attack On Titan.

On the one hand, they epitomized or even incarnated the LA sleaze of the era. On the other hand, the video for "Girls, Girls, Girls" has an uncensored version. Wait, is that the same hand? Whatever; on the gripping hand, I heard they put their money where their mouths were and married strippers. Oh wait, same hand again.

He has lost so much weight. His system can't process food anymore. Lots of vomiting and diarrhea.
We can't figure out how he has been afflicted with it. No family history.
Tomorrow he has an appointment with his doctor. I hope there is some way he can cope with it.
He has been my rock for almost 50 years.

I was honored and we have children and grandchildren.
We are blessed.

"Slime" is a well established brand of tire fixing goo. They also sell tire pressure gauges.

Per Wiki: "Slime is a toy product manufactured by Mattel, sold in a plastic trash can and introduced in February 1976.[2] It consists of a non-toxic viscous, squishy and oozy green or other color material made primarily from guar gum.[3] Different variations of Slime have been released over the years, including Slime containing rubber insects, eyeballs, and worms."

As a man, my love language is problem-solving. Putting the things that you have said together, it may be that his gut biome is horribly out of whack, to the point that yeast or even fungus are taking root.
When I was in college in Texas, I read in the paper (back when people did that) how the state spent millions of dollars creating fire ant habitat. They didn't mean to; in fact, it was a pilot program on eradicating them, but the pesticide they sprayed hit other ants harder. The fire ants bounced back faster, and with their natural competitors out of commission, took over even more.
With an autoimmune disorder, I imagine that he has needed antibiotics more than once. That can kill off the natural symbiotic bacteria in our gut, creating available habitat for inimical microorganisms to take over like the fire ants in Texas. One thing they can do is a "poop transplant", taking a specimen from a young and healthy man, treating it (but not too much -- the microorganisms are the point), and putting it up the exit.
Of course I'm not even *a* doctor, let alone his. I hope this framework for understanding is comforting.

"Decorative English." And they seem to always pick words that transliterate strangely, like "love." Which is great word to put in a song, but it's tough to say when your language has neither an L or a V sound, nor that vowel sound, nor the ability to end a word on a consonant other than "n."
So "love" winds up sounding like "rah-boo."
And that "end a word on an 'n'" thing? That's technically it's own syllable, though it gets glued to the previous syllable in spoken Japanese.
But not always in sung Japanese.
https://youtu.be/ve2fl21qSIg?t=128
"Gyakuten no CHANCE"..... pronounced as three syllables: chah-n-soo.
Going back to where this topic started..... that's why Youtube's AI can't figure out what language it is when Japanese people sing in English.

tcn,
Lol. A good day for you all.
When people here talk about new babies I can smell the babies.
There is nothing like the baby smell and the puppy smell.
Well, unless it's the poop smell, lol.

Years ago on late night TV there was a commercial with an obese guy on the toilet demonstrating a sponge on a long handle he was using to wipe his ass.
My family told me I dreamed it up.
No it was real and it wasn't spectacular.
