Their “strategy” was to prevent LSU from any recourse if the SEC decided to enact any fines or punishments. It was a power play to circumvent all the state court rulings that the NCAA had mostly been losing and the SEC now as well. LSU was a prime target because we went all-in with coaches that other schools despise.


Maybe.

It also seems plausible that it was an attempt to get LSU to screw-up - Goad LSU into filing their own countersuit to the SEC's suit, to nullify the authority to expel that SEC was seeking. If LSU had done that, then the SEC could have said "See they're directly trying to interfere w/ the SEC's ability to govern" and penalties/expulsion may have followed.

This was an attempt to create a violation where none existed.

LSU was calm and cool, refused to bite - "We're not trying to interfere, have your meeting, have your vote."

Because LSU didn't bite, the SEC is forced to shrink their squirrel nuts up & walk away.

I think Moscona is right, nothing more is gonna happen.
Monica looked awesome as a red head, regardless she wasn't shy!

The Kleinpeter Family have owned their land for well over 100 years. Their land was zoned Commerical long before any of those Single Family neighborhoods started being built next door. The Kleinpeters and their commercial property were there first before the residential neighborhoods were built next door by the "greedy" neighborhood developers. (Since most of you folks like to label developers as "greedy" people).


Who do you think sold the land to these subdivisions?

I usually see a few every hunting season, they're not just nocturnal. Sometimes even get a video...

I have a 12yr old dog that had a tumor removed when was four. Same dog had bladder stones, almost stopped up his urethra - he's happy and healthy now.

We had another dog that had severe spinal disk degeneration that became so severe when he was about 13.5 that we were about to put him down. Vet suggested we try a newer medication, the dog was fine for about 1.5 yrs before symptoms came back with a vengeance and he had to be put down. Not a cure, was never sold as one, but we had a very good yr with dog, then slow degradation before rapid decline - we still got another 1.5 with the dog, and I believe he was both happy and comfortable.

Even the gas tankless water heaters require electricity to run.

Wow, people love to bash!

Friend has had numerous BMW's,90's 3 series sedan, still running, still in good shape. An older X5 bought as CPO (lease trade in, whatever BMW calls it officialy), 10+ yrs of ownership, no major repairs, his wife and kids were hard on it. His personal vehicle is a 2000's 5 series. Yes, the the turbo's have been replaced due to age and wear, car still runs/drives great. His wife currently drives a 2020's X5, great service so far.

His good fortune convinced me to buy. My wife has '22 X5, no issues to date, very happy with it. My mother has '20 X3, again no issues, very reliable.

You can keep saying this, but there is no credible evidence this guy was a member of a gang


He was an illegal alien with approved deportation orders, just not to El Salvador. Why didn't he want to go to El Salvador?

That's right! Because he had known gang affiliations that would make life hard for him in El Salvador.

Europe actually has a lot of oil. Their green/woke policies won't let them frack, so it sits unused underground.

When the Chinese take over, you'll see production.
That's an article from 2019, this is an additional 10,000 troops over the 2019 troops. But you already knew that....

Similarly, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced plans to send troops to the Mexican side of its border with the U.S. While Mexico already had 15,000 troops at the border dating back to commitments it made in 2019, during Donald Trump’s first presidency, Sheinbaum said 10,000 additional troops would be heading to the border.
Several times per year. Fly and drive, depends on where I'm going.

Nothing too crazy, looking for a Tikka super lite in 30-06, have it reamed to 30-06AI and bed into a Mcmillan Sako Hunter Pattern stock.

Any help?

Thanks!
Blue birds are not actually blue:

“Red and yellow feathers get their color from actual pigments, called carotenoids, that are in the foods birds eat,” Sillett explains. “Blue is different-no bird species can make blue from pigments. The color blue that we see on a bird is created by the way light waves interact with the feathers and their arrangement of protein molecules, called keratin. In other words, blue is a structural color. Different keratin structures reflect light in subtly different ways to produce different shades of what our eyes perceive as the color blue. A blue feather under ultraviolet light might look uniformly gray to human eyes.”

It was 1400' and needed a lot of work - I was thrilled to have it. I was also thrilled w/ my 8.3% mortgage rate, because it was lower than any rate I had seen as an adult.
