  1. I'm watching the Sky Sports stream of the PGA. Clark was chipping. The dude says Clarks chipping has sucked and call him "Edward Scissorhands" hoping Clark would prove him wrong. Clark duffs his chip. Dude goes, "Edward Scissorhands lives".

    He should buddy up to Rory. Rory needs Rahm for the Ryder Cup and is all chummy with Liv dudes for that reason.

    This may get interesting because supposedly Ricky is one of the guys who gave Rahm a cold shoulder at the Masters.

  3. Good news. Summer 2023 was the hottest in 2000 years. No way 2024 is worse, right? Right?

    Temperatures measured during summer 2023 'unparalleled' to past 2,000 years, researchers say

    A closer look at tree rings is adding to the growing list of evidence that shows unprecedented temperatures measured on Earth over the past year.

    The summer of 2023 was the warmest in the Northern Hemisphere extra-tropical regions -- from about New Orleans to the North Pole -- in the past 2,000 years, according to a study published in Nature on Tuesday.

    Racism, patriotism, religious idolatry, people being too stupid for their own good...don't need a whole lot these days to encourage misguided convictions.

  5. Idiot pleads guilty to plan to attack substations in Baltimore area.

     

    https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/maryland-woman-pleads-guilty-baltimore-power-stations-plot/story?id=110215143

    A Maryland woman accused of plotting to carry out attacks on multiple energy substations surrounding Baltimore pleaded guilty on Tuesday to federal conspiracy and firearms charges, court records show.

    Sarah Beth Clendaniel, of Catonsville, was charged last year with conspiring with a Florida-based founder of the neo-Nazi group Atomwaffen to carry out the attacks, in what prosecutors described as a racism-fueled plot to spark mass chaos in the majority-Black city.

    She initially pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to damage an energy facility. She was subsequently also charged with being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm and pleaded guilty to both charges in federal court on Tuesday.

    "If we can pull off what I'm hoping ... this would be legendary," Clendaniel was quoted in charging documents telling a federal informant about her plot with Brandon Russell to target five substations around Baltimore.

    She was further quoted telling an FBI confidential source she was "determined" to carry out the attacks, adding, "It would probably permanently completely lay this city to waste" if they were successful.

    According to plea documents, Clendaniel agreed that if she were to carry out the attacks the total costs of repairs to the energy facilities would have exceeded $100,000.

    The guilty plea paves the way for Clendaniel to now provide cooperation with federal authorities against Russell -- who was incarcerated when the two first met, stemming from a 2018 conviction related to his possession of an unregistered destructive device.

    The pair crafted their plot to shoot up the five substations while both were out on probation, when Russell began communicating with a confidential FBI source in 2022 about his hopes of attacking critical infrastructure sites, according to charging documents.

    Russell allegedly told the informant that "putting holes in transformers ... is the greatest thing somebody can do," and told the informant they should carry out an attack "when there is greatest strain on the grid" to incur mass disruption. Russell further told the informant of Clendaniel and his alleged coordination with her to attack an energy facility and offered to connect the two to coordinate their attacks in order to "maximize impact."

    Upon meeting the informant, Clendaniel told them in early 2023 that she expected she would die of a terminal illness in a few months and was hoping to obtain a rifle as soon as possible in order to attack five substations she had singled out around Baltimore -- all on the same day.

    "[Clendaniel] described how there was a 'ring' around Baltimore and if they hit a number of them all in the same day, they 'would completely destroy this whole city,'" the affidavit stated.

    Prosecutors agreed they would not recommend Clendaniel serve a sentence over 18 years in connection with her plea agreement, according to court documents, though the judge overseeing her case will ultimately determine the length of her prison term.

    Russell has pleaded not guilty to a conspiracy charge in the case and is set to stand trial in July.

    Minnesota Republicans introduce legislation inspired by the chemtrails conspiracy theory

     

    Republicans in the Legislature, including Senate assistant minority leader Justin Eichorn, R-Grand Rapids, have introduced legislation (HF4687/SF4630) inspired by the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory. 

    The bill contains a mishmash of conspiratorial pseudoscience, including references to made-up phenomena like “xenobiotic electromagnetism and fields,” with just enough parroting of actual science to give it a veneer of credibility. 

    It requires county sheriffs to investigate citizen complaints of “polluting atmospheric activity,” and grants the governor the authority to call up the National Guard and ground any aircraft suspected of spreading pollutants.

    To professionals who study and understand atmospheric science, the legislation bears all the hallmarks of the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory, which posits that airplane exhaust is deliberately laced with harmful chemicals for various nefarious purposes, including forced sterilization and mind control.

    “Because the text of this bill focuses so much on electromagnetic radiation, you can tell that it is coming from the community of people concerned with chemtrails,” said Holly Buck, who studies geoengineering at the University at Buffalo in New York.

    Lawmakers in at least seven other states have introduced similar bills recently. While most have stalled in committee, a Tennessee bill recently sailed through the GOP-controlled House and Senate and awaits a signature or veto by the Republican governor there.

    Sponsors in some of those states have explicitly referenced the chemtrails conspiracy in discussing the legislation.

    “If you look at a thousand planes, you won’t see one (chemtrail). But then all of a sudden you see one,” the author of the Tennessee Senate bill told the Tennessee Lookout last month. “So we’re just asking the question: Are they putting anything in the air that could be toxic?”

    The Minnesota House version of the bill was authored by GOP Rep. Jeff Dotseth of Kettle River and co-sponsored by Reps. Pam Altendorf of Red Wing, Dawn Gillman of Dassel and Krista Knudson of Lake Shore.

    The Senate version was authored by GOP Sen. Eric Lucero of Saint Michael and co-sponsored by Sens. Glenn Gruenhagen of Glencoe, Bruce Anderson of Buffalo, Nathan Wesenberg of Little Falls and Eichorn, the assistant minority leader.

    Some of the language in the bill is nonsensical.

    “I don’t think xenobiotic electromagnetism and fields is a thing — it doesn’t even make sense,” Buck said.

    The lead authors of both chambers’ bills did not respond to a request to define “xenobiotic electromagnetism,” or to provide a real-world example of it.

    Among other things, the legislation seeks to ban “weather-engineering, cloud-seeding, stratospheric aerosol injection, or other atmospheric activity that is harmful to humans or the environment” as well as the emission of “xenobiotic agents” and “excessive electromagnetic radiation.”

    It requires local law enforcement to “encourage” the public to monitor “polluting atmospheric activities” and report them to authorities. If any such report is made, county sheriffs and commissioners must follow up and investigate, “without limitation.”

    It further instructs sheriffs and county commissioners to order the grounding of any aircraft suspected of engaging in “weather-engineering or other atmospheric experimentation that involves releasing xenobiotic agents or producing electromagnetic radiation at harmful levels.”

    The bill also gives the governor the authority to call up the National Guard and ground any aircraft suspected of engaging in “prohibited activity.”

    Taken at face value the legislation could ban all air traffic in the state, due to its apparent blanket prohibition on “polluting atmospheric activity” that is “harmful to humans or the environment.” Similarly worded legislation in other states has been shot down over concerns about the effects on agricultural operators, ethanol producers, radio and TV broadcasters, and other industries.

    The bill has no chance of becoming law under a DFL trifecta and is highly unlikely to even receive a hearing. But the support of multiple Republican members, including a member of leadership, gives a sense of how the party might govern were it to return to power.

  7. Didn't want to create a new thread.

    I guess this dude really hated his stepmom. The article is that clear but her son was graduating. As she went to hug him, the step-son shot her. From the pic, I guess the family had a few things to say to the shooter.

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/new-mexico-man-shoots-stepmom-tried-give-him-hug-during-graduation-ceremony-police-say

    Authorities said the woman was attending the Southwest Secondary Learning Center graduation for her son. Her stepson, Christian Bencomo, 21, arrived and "as she started to hug him, he produced a handgun and shot her in the neck," police said.

  8. Happy to report that there seemed to be very little inconsequential protests during the different schools' commencements. I didn't see or hear any protest during the main Saturday night commencement. I'm extremely happy the 2024 class finally got their graduation which they didn't get in 2020 when they were in high school. Now I can fully not give a shit about any of this shit.

  9. Maybe an attorney can educate me. Why would the DA office/Garza offer a 12 year deal? It seemed like a pretty straight forward case where he would be found guilty and prob get close to the max term. Why did the DA office feel the need to chicken out?

    Benefits of a wet sauna:

    https://www.saunaadvisors.com/wet-sauna-benefits/

     

    While inside the sauna, your body reacts to the extreme heat by sweating, which naturally cools your skin.

    Sweating is also how your body releases toxins and wastes from your system, so sweating is a detoxification tool, too.

    Wet Saunas Improve Mitochondrial Health

    Wet Saunas Use Detoxifies Your Body

    Wet Saunas Can Increase Your Longevity

    Wet Saunas Lower Inflammation and Reduce Pain

    Wet Saunas Boost Your Heart Health

    Wet Saunas Improve Disease-Fighting Capabilities

    Wet Saunas Improve Brain Power and Influence Mood

    Final Thoughts

    Using a wet sauna regularly is a wonderful way to relax but it also can help to improve your health significantly.

    Sauna use is linked to improvements in immune system function, lower levels of pain and inflammation, improvements in mood, enhanced mitochondrial health, and better muscle function and repair.

    You may be surprised at all the things that using a wet sauna can do for your health, so why not try it today?

    Why is cheating at golf so much more frowned upon than cheating in other sports-where we frequently give players a pass?  

    It's a gentleman's game founded on decorum and honor. Plus there's usually betting involved so cheating is severely frowned upon. Who wants to play with a known cheater?

  13. Killed because the thieves wanted the truck tires. 

    Before we start casting stones, in 2022 there was a random killing on Padre Island of a Utah couple. The murderous thieves wanted the Utah couple's RV camper to flee to Mexico.

    Shit happens everywhere.

    This is a horrible story. Seems like he was a good guy as many here knew him. But if the shooter went to his car he could have just as easily driven off as using a gun. I don't know how he could have felt threatened much less responding to non-lifethreatening force with a gun. That doesn't seem reasonable to me.

    Of course I haven't seen a video, but the accounts don't say anything about Limmer chasing him to his car.

    People driving around with guns in the car are looking to use said gun. Why else have a gun in the car? 

    An unstable dude making a scene and yelling at hourly employees at McDonald's is exactly the type of person who I think would shoot someone over a verbal altercation. This is the America that we live in.

  15. Looks like the are cracking down on dealers. I guess 70+ people dying/almost dying will inspire the Mayor, City Council, DAs office, and Police to finally do something. Maybe this dude will rat out his supplier and so on.

     

    https://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/police-find-weed-positive-for-fentanyl-in-austin-man-arrested/

    Officers focused on surveillance efforts near North Lamar Boulevard and Rutland Drive, described in police documents as an “active open-air drug market.” Police noted they’d seen several drug deals happen at this site.

    Just before 2 p.m. Thursday, documents said an undercover officer went to Cash America Pawn at 9616 N. Lamar Blvd., where a man walked up to the officer’s window. The officer asked for crack cocaine and offered $40 for the exchange, police documents said.

    The suspect allegedly gave the undercover officer two pieces of crack cocaine before he was apprehended. Police documents identified the suspect as 33-year-old Kanady Arkangelo Rimijo.

    While police searched the suspect, officials claim they found eight bags of marijuana. Documents said both the crack cocaine handed to the undercover officer as well as the marijuana tested positive for fentanyl.

    “The suspected marijuana was tested for the presence of opioids, as there have been several overdose cases, arrests, and other purchases made by undercover officers in the past 72 hours that involved narcotics that do not normally contain opioids (crack cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana),” police documents said.

    That was hard to watch. These guys are not accustomed to that immense pressure. Last week, Martin Trainer choked in the playoff hole against Rory and Shane. He had the horrible chunked chip and then the missed putt from the same distance as this guy.

     

  17. https://www.kxan.com/weather/100-degree-days-predictions-2024/

    Of course, making predictions so early in the year is not scientifically accurate. As our meteorologists will tell you, accurately forecasting out more than seven days ahead is incredibly difficult. Last year, the team predicted anywhere from 33 to 44 days of triple-digit heat, but Austin ended up with 80.

    This year, the team is predicting a well-above-average year when it comes to 100° days. Austin averages 29 days at or above 100° in a typical year. Here’s what the team is predicting for 2024:
