  1. Past hour
  2. We did not do it. Israel did. Maybe they had our tacit approval but doubtful. Qatar doesn’t have much right to be pissed. And if they are, we have full deniability. Fuck em
  3. The score is less important than the clock management and making them use their timeouts. Kaimi is a lock to make the chip shot FG there.
  4. It's been a busy morning, and I'm just now finally getting caught. @Enchubben, I'm sure you've been overwhelmed with all the notifications and angry comments. But I wanted to reach out and offer up a simplified explanation of where your concerns, as a (I assume) middle-aged white Texan male, should rate on a scale of being discriminated against in hiring practices at the workplace. 1 - We discriminate against historically marginalized groups. 2 - We don't discriminate and are an equal opportunity employer (EOE) 3 - We actively reach out to historically marginalized groups to build a more diverse talent pool (DEI). 4 - We make sure to set aside a percentage of seats for historically marginalized groups (Affirmative Action). 5 - We discriminate against the dominant group that has historically occupied this field.
  5. Norgaard and Rolls Royce on the bench are good signs.
  6. That's certainly true. But....it's also where and how change STARTS. Shit, it's like family counseling. I'm not asking you to show up to counseling already agreeing that you have your own shit/baggage to deal with, and acknowledging that some of that shit/baggage contributes to our overall family dysfunction. I'm just asking you to show up. Be there. Participate in the conversation. Over time, the honesty and self-reflection will come, and then we'll end up in a place where we can all move forward together. Shit, I'm not asking or expecting Lockheed to hire a shitload of engineers from HBCUs. I would just like it if they sent a rep to interview week and solicited resumes from candidates at HBCUs. Maybe they start out thinking it's a waste of time, and shit duty, and all that. But....they end up hiring a guy from Jackson State. And he turns out to be a damned fine engineer. And the guys on his team at LM end up realizing that Jackson State cranks out some good engineers. And that guy says "hey, my prof at Jackson State knows who his best students are, why don't we call him and see if he has any recs for us?" And they get the names of three top students. And they end up interviewing and hiring another JS engineer. And that's how things roll on. Those JS engineers? They're as good or better than someone from Georgia Tech, who studied under the same prof the 60 year old LM team lead studied under, back when almost all the engineering students were white dudes. Not only can we not start the process or conversation anymore, even having the conversation leads to full-on attack and sanction against the enterprise by the government of the United States (and the State of Texas, in our case). It is literally AGAINST THE LAW NOW for Lockheed Martin to make any particular effort to reach out to HBCUs that were not previously on its interview plan.
  7. He's intimating back to the dark days at the foundation of the program it seems
  8. Stay classy, Ohio.
  9. Also do's and don'ts, how much cash to bring for tips, etc. (for 4 days)
  10. HRSchenker

    Dallas | Steak

    Finally got around to trying Al Biernat's on Oak Lawn. Doesn't crack my top 10 at all. Steak was pretty average, sides were horrendous, and it was too loud inside. Seems more like a place to see and be seen rather than a legit restaurant.
  11. Israel says 'Gaza is burning' as it launches ground assault | Reuters Israel's doing more Nazi shit today! Taking a break from mourning Charlie Kirk, I guess.
  12. And yep, shit's going down Israel says 'Gaza is burning' as it launches ground assault | Reuters
  13. That I do agree with.
  14. Y'all notice enchubben dodged that whole thing where Kirk called for Biden's execution. That's because he's too stupid to come up for some rationalization for that. Why waste your time on someone that dumb?
  15. Well, I'll be.
  16. 100% agree. American Christianity is a lazy, fat cat from lapping at the easy dish of cream. Christianity has always thrived when it was practiced in the margins in, dare I say, persecution. Americans (and yours truly) would be wise to heed Isaiah 1:22, "Your silver has become dross..."
  17. You're right. I saw some YT short that said it was this year. I should know better than to trust some of shitty sources/AI crap. Still not sure my point changes much. Lindblad does not look ready for F1, and moving Hadjar seems like he'll join the long list of quality, promising drivers RB ruins/sets back about 5 years.
  18. sometimes i have no idea how people manage to survive to adulthood without stabbing their eyes out while tying their shoes.
  19. Robert Redford (front row, center) with fellow members of the Kappa Sigma fraternity at the University of Colorado, c. 1955. Photo: UC-Boulder Alumni Association, Flickr Redford attended Van Nuys High School, where he was classmates with baseball pitcher Don Drysdale.[4][9] He described himself as having been a "bad" student, finding inspiration outside the classroom in art and sports.[4] He hit tennis balls with Pancho Gonzalez at the Los Angeles Tennis Club to help Gonzalez warm up for matches. Redford had a mild case of polio when he was 11.[10] After graduating from high school in 1954,[11] he attended the University of Colorado in Boulder for a year and a half,[4][12][13] where he was a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity.[14] While there, he worked at a restaurant/bar called The Sink, where a painting of his likeness now figures prominently among the bar's murals.[15] While at Colorado, Redford began drinking heavily and, as a result, lost his half-scholarship and was kicked out of school.[12][13] He went on to travel in Europe, living in France, Spain, and Italy.[4] He later studied painting at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and took classes at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts (Class of 1959) in New York City.[4][16]
  20. We’d be in pretty good shape with a Shane Buechele at QB. That level of play. Probably not a NC team, but a playoff team. As opposed to 7-5 or whatever we are now without major improvements.
  21. So since the times has been fairly favorable to Trump compared to reality, this could be another lawsuit whose sole purpose is to launder a large amount of money given to Trump as a court settlement. Nice paper you got there. Be a shame if something happened to it.
  22. RIP to an insanely cool motherfucker
  23. I disagree. He knows he's racist and is happy being racist. He's just too much of a coward to openly admit it.
