The rise of Christian Nationalism
It's all about the Bible for them. The inerrant Bible that is filled with contradictions. Perhaps they should look at the Ten Commandments, particularly the last 6 or 7 commandments, depending on which set they forget about following. Imagine what life would be like if everyone loved their neighbor...

George Santos (R-NY) and his imaginative (but dishonest) résumé
Wasn't he charged with a bunch more things? Does pleading guilty to a couple of charges get you out of the others - some sort of deal? I assume they take pleas to avoid the time and expense of a trial even if there is no deal to sing. I assume prosecutors consider which charges they would be willin...

The rise of Christian Nationalism
Churches are losing members right now. Positions like this are more likely to drive folks away from Christianity than draw them in. They're the MAGA minority of Christianity. In other words, these "Christians" give Christians a bad name. I have been told other Christians need to call them...

If the artifact hunters were trying this on some US farm, I'm thinking instead of a fire extinguisher, they may well hear the cocking of some rifle or shotgun.

"Vocal fry" involves essentially a high level of friction on the vocal fold (rubbing and smacking them together). As with any friction like on your heel creating callouses, a regular high level of friction on the vocal cords may eventually create nodes. They have to be removed surgically, ...

I know how to tie a bowline. I know how to tie it one handed with my eyes closed. This may be due to having taught lots of knot-tying over the years. I also have figures out that I am not good at folding towels and sheets. I only know how to fold things in a triangle (with no red showing). Taught th...

I haven't been in a school building in years. Do they no longer have analog clocks in the hallways or classrooms? They've all been replaced with digital clocks? The district where I used to teach just built a new elementary school, and it appears to have all analog clocks. However, the suburban dis...

No, no, that's how a lot of people do it. I do it by team names, like (Anybody) Tigers vs. (Delaware) Blue Hens. I mean, tigers against chickens, how fair is that? Why are the hens blue, anyhow? It gets harder when the Temple Owls play the Rice Owls. Those games are hard to figure out! :confuzzled:...

When I was in 4th grade (1976ish) my teacher tasked me to help a fellow student on how to read an analog clock. We did a few sessions.

Fiore was a no show. Santilli, Renz, and Cliven bloviated to the press that showed up - I don't think the press was there to listen to those fools. Am I missing something? I don't see anything in their release that said she was going to be there. It was about here, but it only said Cliven, Santilli...
