I'd be surprised if the litigation regarding this wasn't more than the amount of restitution requested.

@taiwan_girl Thank you. [image: ?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmedia1.tenor.com%2Fimages%2F4de0010fe5ea15f5856bba3a905eef3d%2Ftenor.gif%3Fitemid%3D9116405&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=b45c5d5ad938edc269e27728411a886df326574c0542d7f56b32f71d561035b4&ipo=images]

Did not really talk about the heart of the question. A San Jose State women’s volleyball player is eligible to play in her conference tournament this week, a federal judge in Denver ruled Monday, despite complaints from competitors who object to her participation on the grounds that she is transgender. and In his 28-page ruling, Crews hardly addressed the alleged fairness and safety issues raised by San Jose State co-captain Brooke Slusser and other Mountain West women’s volleyball players. Crews instead focused on the timing of the plaintiffs’ complaint, filed less than two weeks before the Mountain West tournament was slated to begin this Wednesday in Las Vegas. The Mountain West’s transgender participation policy has been in place since 2022 and all teams were made aware of it, Crews noted. The judge argued that the plaintiffs “could have have sought injunctive relief much earlier” since they’ve been aware of San Jose State’s alleged transgender player for months. “The Court finds the movants’ delay was not reasonable,” Crews wrote. “There is no evidence to suggest they were precluded from seeking emergency relief earlier, and the rush to litigate these complex issues now over a mandatory injunction places a heavy lift on the MWC at the eleventh hour.” https://www.yahoo.com/sports/transgender-volleyball-controversy-judge-rules-san-jose-state-womens-volleyball-player-eligible-to-play-in-conference-tournament-004235078.html

The story doesn't mention that they found a big stack of bills many years later in the area, that were definitively part of Cooper's haul. It seems unlikely that he survived the jump, but left some of the money behind. These sorts of retconned narratives to establish the identity of some mysterious person, often exist for multiple people. There have been books written about multiple people being DB Cooper, and I'm sure they are all convincing in their own way. The most interesting part to me is how it is possible to craft a convincing narrative to establish something that isn't actually true. There are lots of similar narratives around the zodiac killer's identity.

Cultural appropriation.

Baldvin Oddson. I mean how could he not be a hurt person, hurting people. Hurt people hurt people.

@89th I have absolutely no idea what you were talking about. 5555 Reminds me of the comedian Steve Martin joke *“Okay, I don’t like to gear my material to the audience, but I’d like to make an exception because I was told that there is a convention of plumbers in San Francisco this week – and I understand about 30 of them came down to the show tonight – so before I came out I worked-up a joke especially for the plumbers. Those of you who aren’t plumbers probably won’t get this and won’t think it’s funny, but I think those of you who are plumbers will really enjoy this, and uh…. So if you’re not a plumber, please, bear with me for a while and just kinda, you know, hold off on this, but I would like to do this for the plumbers. Here we go. “This lawn supervisor was out on a sprinkler maintenance job and he started working on a Findlay sprinkler head with a Langstrom 7″ gangly wrench. Well, just then, this little apprentice leaned over and said, “You can’t work on a Findlay sprinkler head with a Langstrom 7″ wrench.” Well this infuriated the supervisor, so he went and got Volume 14 of the Kinsley manual, and he reads to him and says, “The Langstrom 7″ wrench can be used with the Findlay sprocket.” Just then, the little apprentice leaned over and said, “It says sprocket not socket!”*

@Jolly @Jolly said in The man who shot Ashley Babbit: The people banging on the window, may or may not wish to physically harm you. LOL Based on the video (people smashing windows, etc.) you think that the group was pretty friendly and if they actually broke through, they would have given hugs and kisses to the police on the other side? 555 I dont think that anybody on the other side of the window/door from the mob would have thought that the mob were there for friendly purposes and if they made it through, there was no danger at all. If I had to put a % on it, I would say that 95% I was in danger, 5% they were friendly and would have given me a hug. I love you and your insights, but if you could take a step back, I think you could see that your TDS is showing. As you said here: You negate the threat. That means you shoot it until quits attacking. Sometimes that takes one shot. Sometimes it takes a lot more. https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/topic/4539/choot-em/11?_=1732634389860 Was she a threat? IMO, yes. If you dont think so, that is okay too. It is possible for both of us to be correct.

@89th said in 15 towns in Minnesota: @brenda thoughts? https://familydestinationsguide.com/dreamy-small-towns-minnesota/ I was in Stillwater last month... indeed a beautiful town. Funny that none of the pictures were taken in February.

If that DOJ policy didn’t exist, they would have had to invent it. In the back of even the most TDS addled mind is the realization that that circus, during a presidency, makes the prosecutors look bad and Trump look good. And the people who elected him to do a job would be galvanized.

Horace, that site is hilarious.

I don't see them eating it. They must be trolling somebody.

Tribe? Blackfoot.

I should put a big caveat on my above posts - I don't know what the exact product was or how it was advertised. But the higher-than-market interest rates to me point to an investment being made, rather than a typical deposit account.

My apartment that I had the last three years and the house I now bought each have a middle section with an elongated oval burner for just such a griddle. I just don’t have a use case for it. I don’t really make anything larger than will fit in a regular frying pan or grill pan.

My local guys: https://www.redriverradio.org/ The national feed stuff is okay for some things, but the news is biased and the nationwide programs often are. Local stuff is usually better. Personally, I'd like to see the guys down south https://www.wwno.org/ merge with RRR. There's a lot going on in this state, that could be recorded and broadcast... Local symphonies, college concert bands, smaller college athketics, high school playoffs, bar bands, live music at festivals. They could partner with LPB and simulcast programs such as the governor's news conferences, local &state politics. I think they could do some more original stuff in talk shows/podcasts working with some of the college communications programs. And the national stuff would still exist. Maybe they could pick and choose. I'm just spitballing here...Trying to figure out how to keep the stations on the air with more local programming with a shoestring budget.
