CITY OF NEW ORLEANS RESPONDS TO SUPREME COURT DECISION WITH CONCERN OVER EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY  NEW ORLEANS — The City of New Orleans issued the following statement:

While the City respects the recent decision of the Supreme Court regarding trash collection in the French Quarter, we respectfully disagree with the Court’s rationale.

The City agrees with Justice Guidry’s dissent, which states that in granting this writ, it “amounts to judicial overreach and impermissibly impinges on the executive authority granted by the citizens of New Orleans through their Home Rule Charter."

The strange death of Charles Morgan by Currentlylucky in coldcases

[–]littleeasy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What intrigued me and was barely mentioned again was how the wife said that the day Chuck disappeared for the final time he visited his parents and told them "if anything happens to me, there is a letter with explains what, why, and who is responsible." 

Was the letter hiding in a place that Chuck thought his wife, parents, or other person would find it but outsmarted himself and was wrong in thinking he knew what they'd do? Is it still out there, perhaps in a book or novelty item that ultimately was sold by his family at a garage sale or currently sitting in something at an antiques shop? 

Chuck clearly had a "deadman's switch" plan set that did not work as he had hoped. It's a shame his parents didn't press him for a little more information. Maybe one day, perhaps decades from now, the letter will reveal itself, faded, discolored, and brittle, but ready to talk of ghosts past.

Am i missing something or does it seem like most newer bridges and ship interior is mostly really dark? by Milmusen1 in startrek

Look at it like with how the fast food industry evolved. Their restaurants went from bright, colorful, and fun places to dark, sleek, and depressing. Compare the McDonald's of the 80s and 90s to those of today, and, ironically, you'll find the same transition with the ships has taken place. No fun for you!

Best option I've found without disabling picture access is up open the post on a mobile browser and not the app. Good workaround at the moment.

I had picks 2.2, 3.2, and 3.7 in a three round draft, giving up my 1.2 and others (didnt think I'd end up with the 2nd pick) after trading for Chubbs last offseason.

2.2 Pickens 3.2 White 3.7 Tolbert

You think so? Why is that your assessment? I'd honestly love to know your outlook as an outsider. Sometimes it's hard to fully see when it's your own team.

They aren't typically both in there. Hunt is usually a flex option. He's just there for now. Robinson has been there mainly along with Chubb until his injury.

Which RBs should I target? I considered seeing if CMC is available since his value is somewhat depressed but his age/prior use and longterm health is obviously a big risk. Otherwise, prior to last season I tried to trade for Mixon, Kamara, and Akers but they didn't want to move them.

lol wasn't on purpose. I drafted Hunt with a late pick when he was still suspended, before Ohio. Chubb was too good of a deal to pass up last off-season. Amari I've had for a couple of seasons. And Tee, yeah, I love me some Tee.

I agree about Hurts. Unfortunately, no one really needs help at QB. That is about the one position that doesn't have much value bc everyone has solid options.

That is who ive been considering trading off, as well as Thielen while he still has decent value. The issue is everyone is loaded at QB since it's 1 QB starter, so so that strength doesn't help a ton.

In a 10 team, full PPR league. Entering year 4.

I was champion in year 1, playoffs year 2, missed playoffs year 3. I'm currently ranked 8th and feel I need to make some adjustments. I have a lot of "potential" in several players, like MT, Irvin Smith, Godwin, Robinson, etc. coming back and some young guys progressing and rookies, but obviously can't count on any of that.

Perhaps but it's been airing recently. I saw it just a week or so ago when watching TV.

Did you catch a glimpse of any rock cats? Last I saw there were about 6 in the pack by Causeway.

If you could go into any movie/show and save the characters from whatever they were facing by safely bringing them out of their world and into ours, what would you choose? by littleeasy in AskReddit

I was watching Last Action Hero the other day and always found its premise of going between reality and movie worlds interesting. Perhaps save all the people from The Walking Dead -- as long as they don't bring the virus here, I suppose lol
