I sold a ton of stock on Mondays close.

You sound SOOOO much like me after 9/11. Selling on unfounded fear, instead of holding long term. I suppose that the difference is that I was 34 yrs old and am only looking at what COULD HAVE BEEN, long term gain wise.
I'm guessing that you are not 34 and the actual gain potential long term isn't really that much. You probably made a wise decision, congrats sir!
Thanks. After 9/11 I took my uniforms to the cleaners. I wish I still had the cleaning ticket, 5 sets BDU 9:30 am 9/11/2001.

choose your fighter....

Black Sheep Squadron

One of the more underrated shows IYAM. The Corsair was probably the best-looking plane the U.S. had, IMO. She was also a beast in combat.

One was a Marine fighter pilot who flew an aircraft known as "Whistling Death" by the Japanese during WWII. The F4U Corsair was a supremely capable fighter aircraft, used by the Marines and Navy, with a kill ratio of 11 to one. It also was the longest running piston engine fighter in U.S. military history. It could out fly, out climb, out dive, and out turn any enemy aircraft.

A Golden Dome: can the US afford it and is it even needed?

Dumbest way to deploy a bioweapon would be to do it in their own country. There are estimates that somewhere between 1 and 2 million Chinese died from COVID. I guess if they wanted to kill their own people they could deploy it there . . .

I mean, I agree to an extent. But, China seems like the type of country that would sacrifice a few millions pawns for its agenda.

choose your fighter....

I have always loved the P-38 Lightening. Then would be two Merlin engine fighters, P51 and the Spitfire.
Er'bod has always tried to go faster. Sometimes you have to slow down to go faster.
Give me a FPV, $300 drone with a shotgun shell (dragons breath would be AWESOME!), or an RFG, depending on the mission. I can make a million of those, for the cost of one of your planes (well kinda anyway).
I won't chase you, but I'll loiter and fly into your intake, Poof! eject eject eject!

Reality check for the anti-Beard folks…

My gut started telling me Beard was not in the running and then a conversation I had a week or so ago solidified that. Maybe things will work out how they are supposed to. I think Scott will do a good job here.
If he passes on beard knowing beard would come he has automatically failed at doing a good job. If he wants beard and is not allowed to make the hire he wants he works for a shit company.

I have zero confidence in IU making a sound decision. Hearing names like Cronin and Brownell just prove their incompetence

Execution by Firing Squad - Friday in South Carolina.

You know what, upon further review, I'm not sure there is. I saw a poll that showed doctors generally agreed that it was wrong for them to be involved in executions, but I can't find one that says how they feel about it overall.

But there's no question that the consensus in the medical field is that capital punishment is counter to medical ethics.

"Shall do no harm"
It took you this long, reading and investigating your claim to consider the Hippocratic Oath. "Shall do no harm" as the public often recite.
"By all that I hold highest, I promise my patients competence, integrity, candor, personal commitment to their best interest, compassion, and absolute discretion, and confidentiality within the law.


I shall do by my patients as I would be done by; shall obtain consultation whenever I or they desire; shall include them to the extent they wish in all important decisions; and shall minimize suffering whenever a cure cannot be obtained, understanding that a dignified death is an important goal in everyone’s life.


I shall try to establish a friendly relationship with my patients and shall accept each one in a nonjudgmental manner, appreciating the validity and worth of different value systems and according to each person a full measure of human dignity.


I shall charge only for my professional services and shall not profit financially in any other way as a result of the advice and care I render my patients.


I shall provide advice and encouragement for my patients in their efforts to sustain their own health.


I shall work with my profession to improve the quality of medical care and to improve the public health, but I shall not let any lesser public or professional consideration interfere with my primary commitment to provide the best and most appropriate care available to each of my patients.


To the extent that I live by these precepts, I shall be a worthy physician".

It's too bad that box scores don't list how many points each individual player gave up on the defensive end. I'd be interested in seeing Malik and Mgbako's data.
Again terrible players do not score 1000 points in 3 years. IU’s defense is bad overall, the past two years we have had zero guard play with no defense. Hard to fault bigs when the defense breaks down out front.

Reneau would be in high demand on the open market, all kinds of top 20 teams don't have NBA type players. Reneau is a very good college player.
Nba type? He gets his shot blocked all the time. He will be lucky to be in the G league. Good college player with no upside no outside shot can't jump lacks quickness to guard bigs that can move.
