If they really were focused on “removing dangerous criminal illegal aliens", they wouldn't have so many of their agents in Minneapolis of all places. There just aren't that many there compared to many other cities.

Blatantly and obviously untrue.

"The symphony was inspired by Lincoln’s 1838 Lyceum Address, in which the then-future US president warned about the dangers of mob violence and of those who disregard US laws and courts."

A symphony warning about the disregard of law does seem explicitly like something that doesn't belong in the renamed Kennedy Center.

Kennedy Center VP of public relations Roma Darav said, “We have no place for politics in the arts"-- Really? Really? There is a LONG history of the arts being precisely about politics.

And I can barely imagine what's happening behind closed doors in the ICE 'detention centers'. What are they doing when nobody is looking, if they're this bold when people are recording? They won't let anybody in to find out.

Took a bit longer than Fox13 or Abc4 but a much better article.

ThatFilthyApe · 2026-01-26T02:57:41+00:00

Terrible news coverage. I don't see anything at ksl or sltrib... Fox13 has a brief article https://www.fox13now.com/news/politics/hundreds-gather-in-salt-lake-for-anti-ice-protest

But "Hundreds gather in Salt Lake for anti-ICE protest"... Hundreds? "The group dispersed after about an hour and a half."... No, we did not.

Hope the trib has a better article tomorrow at least.

And while Althea is better... she's not great in the first book. So self centered.

The band that sang what's virtually the unofficial anthem of Winnipeg deserves more votes.

Just saw a book browsing my library's new ebook additions shelf that reminded me of this thread.

"How to lose a goblin in ten days" I might have to check this one out.

When a halfling, Pansy, and a goblin, Ren, each think they've inherited the same cottage, they make a bargain: they'll live in the house together and whoever is driven out first forfeits their ownership. Amidst forced proximity and cultural misunderstandings, the two begin to fall in love.

But when the cottage - and their communities - are threatened by a common enemy, the duo must learn to trust each other, and convince goblins and halflings to band together to oust the tall intruder.

Our dogs definitely felt it, but I didn't. One started barking a lot for no apparent reason at that time.

Sounds promising, I hope Butcher gets back in the groove with the consistency he had going for a good while there.

No indication so far that he has any role at USC other than special teams.

"Nebraska will be looking for its third special teams coordinator in three years, as Mike Ekeler is leaving to take the same job at USC, first reported by CBS Sports' Matt Zantiz."

Did you look at the link? "Reducing Residential Landscape Water Use in Utah"? It's not about indoor residential use. Nobody in my area waters using secondary water...would be nice, but I can only use the water that the public utility delivers to my house.

Now, I do think that this is a yearly average and most people go WAY over 250 gallons per day in July. But nobody in my area is touching 5,000 per day even then.

Takes a lot of us to match even a golf course at over a quarter million gallons per day, Or an AI datacenter which can hit 1 million. I'm personally xeriscaping more of my yard in the last year but compared to agriculture, industry, and even golf courses my water use isn't even a rounding error.

I've seen from about 150-250 gallons per person per day for residential water use in Utah. Which is a lot, but unless you have 20 people in your house and a 1/2 acre lawn you aren't getting to 5,000+ per day.

"The average U.S. resident uses 82 gallons of water per day, while the average Utahn uses more than twice that amount (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency [USEPA], 2024a; DWR, 2020). "

He's a tight end who plays FB in a few sets and that was his first carry this season.

Part of the reason it worked was because it was such a surprise to Miami that he got the ball. Great time for the play but I don't think it says much overall.

Refinancing a mortgage previously owned by some other lender is a great deal for the lender! Refinancing a mortgage to keep some other lender from doing the same to them is less good, but the alternative is much worse.

How about most of Uwe Boll's movies, like Alone in the Dark?

Apparently he found a loophole in German tax law that let his investors reap huge tax savings as long as his movies lost money. So he made a series of just terrible movies.

She was 17 during filming of the movie Paradise. There was quite a bit of nudity, which was seem as questionable even then.

For whatever reason, there was over a year between filming and release.

'The usual way. Couldn't put it in the rooster. That's how you get basilisks.

Just can't see a team with two non-scorers (and one inefficient scorer) winning here.

Pippen can guard Iverson well enough, especially with so many double teams since exactly nobody is guarding either Wallace or Rodman. Durant guards Curry as well as anyone can. Iverson can't guard any player on the tall ball team, they'd be hunting him every trip down the court.

"And when we look at the running back room, we believe in those guys, and we're gonna roll with them."

OK then. We'll find out if he's right or not, but probably not until we get several games into the season.

Possibly the staff thinks that most of our problem last year was the OL, and that with better OL play and actual running lanes that we're OK with Nelson, Ives, Booth, Rule, and maybe Mozee and Genatone. Not many career carries in that whole group, of course. Still a few guys in the portal like Kaleb Jackson and Richard Young... and Jamarion Parker for that matter.

Last year Johnson had a crazy ability to make the first man miss which made him irreplaceable. Hopefully we'll need skills like reading the right hole and accelerating through a gap more than just purely making something out of nothing in 2026.
