This is incredible and embarrassing. I remember the US womens team got beat in similar circumstances. mspart
  3. What do you all think of this guy? If elected, he will make NYC into Portland and Seattle. The folks in NYC seriously do not want that. mspart
  4. Ding ding ding ding ding!! I thought it was just north of Australia, but was wrong. Thanks for the info. By the way, while in Hawaii, I met a guy from Niue. He grew up with catchment water systems. The island is too low for in ground water. Very brackish. mspart
  5. Nobody but you say that. Public education should educate period. They are not doing that. They need to return to it. mspart

  9. https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-planned-parenthood-abortion-medicaid-e056395b9e5646d13539e76605027a1f Supreme Court says states can block Medicaid money for health care at Planned Parenthood WASHINGTON (AP) — States can block the country’s biggest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, from receiving Medicaid money for health services such as contraception and cancer screenings without facing lawsuits from patients, the Supreme Court ruled on Thursday. The 6-3 opinion by Justice Neil Gorsuch and joined by the rest of the court’s conservatives was not directly about abortion, but it comes as Republicans back a wider push across the country to defund the organization. It closes off Planned Parenthood’s primary court path to keeping Medicaid funding in place: patient lawsuits. ... South Carolina argued that patients should not be able file such lawsuits. The state pointed to lower courts that have been swayed by similar arguments and allowed states such as Texas to act against Planned Parenthood. The high court majority agreed. “Deciding whether to permit private enforcement poses delicate policy questions involving competing costs and benefits — decisions for elected representatives, not judges,” Gorsuch wrote. He pointed out that patients can appeal through other administrative processes if coverage is denied. mspart
  10. Where are they, not google search. mspart
  11. Is it true? mspart
  12. I can understand jross's assertion. Who can tell where the Cook Islands are specifically without looking it up. I couldn't some time ago. When I lived in Hawaii, Aloha Airlines started flying to the Cook Islands. I was like where is that? I knew where Iran was, but not the Cook Islands. Granted Iran seems to be more relevant to world issues, but who has even heard of the Cook Islands? Is it important to know about the Cook Islands? So I can see what he is talking about. mspart
  13. My kids are color blind. That might be a rough major for them!! mspart
  14. https://www.israelhayom.com/2025/06/26/trump-and-netanyahus-2-state-vision-gaza-wars-end-abraham-accords-expansion/ But he is trying to end the war in Gaza. He prevented (for now) war between Iran and Israel. This guy is a real war monger. Trump and Netanyahu's 2-state vision: Gaza war's end, Abraham Accords expansion They reached consensus on these fundamental principles in general terms: Gaza hostilities to conclude within two weeks, Abraham Accords expansion to include Syria and Saudi Arabia, a two-state solution with limited Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria. mspart
  15. Heating oil needed in Sri Lanka? I find that suspect. It's a tropical climate. Maybe 80F is cold there, who knows. mspart
  16. I understand what you are saying, but this is why we send kids to school. Very few students in school feel that education has intrinsic value, but it does. Knowing basic facts about the world always has intrinsic value. The schools are not doing the job they are there to do. mspart
  17. No one should be eligible for 5 seasons in college. Or else everyone should be eligible. I count him as a 4 timer, not a 5 timer. mspart
  18. It's a slippery slope RV. Happy now? mspart
  19. 152, the analogy works whether you want it to or not. It has been demonstrated very clearly here. mspart
  20. Agreed. That is essentially what I said earlier. mspart
  21. I seem to remember the riots in 2020 lasted for months. LA lasted for a week or so. And I atribute that to them being denied easy arson, theft, looting, and assault. That's what the Nat Guard brought. mspart
  22. I rest my case. mspart
  23. You are a math genius. Maybe you should be in Congress. No wait!! mspart
  24. The analogy works even if you don't want it to. Sorry for that, but that is the way it is. mspart
  25. This guy will train wreck NYC if he gets to do what he is saying he wants to do. He can't do it without a compliant city council. mspart
