They are dividing campus up into 10x10 sections, and you will have to pay a fee to tailgate.
I had floor seats at four different manias, VIII, X7, 30, and 35, and combined my tickets cost less than an upper level at a PLE since the TKO purchase.

Direct production spending in the state dropped from a 2022 peak of $4.4 billion to just $2.3 billion in FY25
And that is a 2 year lag. That drop is just the drop from the post covid surge to a return to normal production levels. They havent even seen the effects of the post strike domestic downtrurn.
The obvious answer is the correct one. The unions made domestic production cost prohibitive with their great "wins" after the last round of labor negotiations.. More production is going to Canada, the UK, Australia, and Eastern Europe.
The industry gets to stack local and national incentives plus lower labor costs and favorable echange rates overseas. Congrats IATSE your knew standards agreement guarantees grips $80 an hour, but the contract guarantees 0 hours at that rate.

Amazing film, but still trails Captain Ron as Kurt Russell’s finest work.

Auburn in 1999, UAB in 2000 or Colorado State in whatever year that was.

One time I pissed off a producer and he told me he was going to send Jason Statham to my house to "sort this out."

I haven't had an Abita beer since that commercial with the Bengy Davis Project.

The optimal solution is to have them far away from all commercial and residential areas. Thinking you can just throw a hyperscale datacenter in the middle of a walmart is pie in the sky thinking.
Louisiana's mega sites are one of the states best resources to attract industry. When several of them are getting dedicated to data centers the state is giving up its asset for a project that will have a massive footprint and produce fewer jobs than possible alternatives.
Yeah the cap ex is huge, but the employment numbers arent great, and will probably be worse by the time any of these things are actually operational. And the cost to the state is literally billions of dollars. Are 800-1000 jobs worth a sales tax exemption that runs for 20 years and will cost the state $1.5 billion? That is like 10 years of the film program (which is also hirrible) but data centers produce only 10% of the fulltime jobs.

My timeframe for working with legislators regularly was 2006-2024. In that stretch Sharon Hewitt really stands out, but she didn’t have much of a bar to clear.
The dumbest was probably either Dottie Horton or Major Thibaut. I’ve met cats and dogs smarter than them. Most cats
and dogs are smarter than them. I’d be shocked if Thibaut isn’t a frequent poli board poster.

Some of it is, but they are poor economic development projects. Almost any alternative use will create more jobs.

That is his blind family trust with record setting trading volume and outperforming the market by 10x mostly on industries where he has committee involvement. He is totally against congressional stock trading bros.

So are we going to discuss the gigantic underbite on Sheepslayer? Maybe this indicates he’s a little drago-autistic or drago-retarded? No wonder he doesn’t hang with the other dragons. They make laugh at him. Call him names. Won’t let him play in their dragon games. Wait…I’ve heard this somewhere before…
Sheepstealer is either a jerk or really dumb.

No it’s not. Dostoevsky conducts one of the most profound examinations of faith in general, and exegesis of his position, in all of history. this is not at all like your Jim Bob. Of course, it comes down to faith, and faith is often rooted in one’s culture.
A tad disingenuous though coming from a defender of the the Russian orthodoxy, a pillar of the Tsars that shifted into a KGB asset. He argues that Rome gave into the third temptation while being a member of the preeminent example of a state church. It is a perverse irony.
He hated Catholics because he associated Catholicism with Poland. He beat up the Roman Church because of his own bigotry, and he gave the Russian church a pass because of he was virulent nationalist.

The pro abortion crowd knows the pro-life crowd is correct. They know they are killing a person. They know they are doing it for convenience. They just don’t care. They have an insatiable lust to kill babies.
re: Looks like you will have higher electric rates due to data centers

So, under your logic, we should oppose *any* new economic development on the grounds that it will increase demand for electricity?
Data center projects are just shitty economic development projects. The EDOs like them because they have huge cap ex, but they provide little return.
They get billions of dollars in sales tax exemptions, tens of millions of dollars in property tax abatements, occupy thousands of acres, consume gobs of resources and produce next to no permanent jobs. And by the time they are online, the permanent jobs will be reduced by improvements in technology.
Every data center that goes up is like 10 years of the film program. They are just costly black holes.

From the Greek Orthodox and the Byzantine Empire to the Tsars and dictators of Russia and the Russian Orthodox Church, I don't see how the Eastern Orthodox Churches have the moral high ground here.
There is nothing closer to a state religion in all of Christianity than the Russian Orthodox Church. It is barely more than Kremlin controlled spy network.
