Prices are starting to go down in slower markets. Even just holding steady is good news for buyers as the high inflation makes that price more affordable in the long term. Interest rates might make the decrease irrelevant though if they go higher, as that takes away a lot of buying power.

There already is a blood spot test for rare but serious diseases that states do. It depends on the state though for a specific list of what gets tested.

Math should be taught with postix or reverse Polish notation. It removes this ambiguity as the order of operations is left to right.

Housing isn't in a bubble. Construction hasn't kept up with demand in most areas, and even though COVID was a while ago now, the pause can still be felt in housing. COVID also made rates absurdly low which led to less turnover in home ownership, people with a sub 3.5% rate can't afford an equivalent house elsewhere. Markets that saw massive building have actually seen prices dropping now, markets that aren't extremely popular are also seeing prices stall or go down. NYC and LA aren't getting cheaper anytime soon unless millions of people want to stop living there.

Is Kyler Murray so bad that it's a competition?

I'll tell you how to find a dirty cop. Pick up the phone and call the police station, don't really matter who answers.

This is two separate churches, it's like asking why france doesn't remove the king of England.

To be fair there wasn't really any evidence. The guard claimed it was a contraband search for a hat the inmate was wearing, but the guard followed the guy back to his cell from a separate building and never actually found the contraband. The guard claimed the inmate destroyed everything after the search. There weren't any witnesses, and any camera footage that could have proved anything was not retained by the prison.

It's clear to anyone that remotely understands how prisoners are treated that this was clearly a guard abusing their power, but privileged white women don't have to face that reality.

Expensive: California.

Affordable: undesirable towns with little or no economic future.

I've been selected three times for jury duty. Two were county and one was federal. As far as pay went, county payed awful, it was less than minimum wage. Federal paid a bit better, and I got mileage to the courthouse, I also had to front the parking cost and be reimbursed later.

The first time I was on a criminal trial for rape of a mentally handicapped woman, I was kicked off that jury during selection. The second time I had to go in one day, but all the cases for the day ended up settling, so they sent us back home. The third time was a civil case for a prisoner who had his stuff destroyed by one of the guards, I was part of the jury and we couldn't reach a verdict because some people couldn't believe a guard would just do bad things.

Really wish they could count to 3 though.

Disease requires mass concentration of people which was less common in America. They did transfer syphilis to Europe though.

Nothing really surprising, but it's the first official list.

Something needs to be done after the garbage first round of playoffs.

  • No automatic bye for conference champions seems good.

This article stops short of saying the Big12 and ACC should only get one team in, but I'd support that until proven they aren't week conferences.

Strength of schedule needs to be a bigger factor, an 11-1 Indiana never deserved a spot. My ideal default would be 6 SEC, 3 Big10, and the other automatic qualifiers.

Now is a great time for if I were there hypotheticals, so here's mine.

Once it was decided to run Harris and push Biden out, they should have gone all the way and used the 25th amendment to let Harris become president. This would have effectively separated her from Biden while still allowing her to take credit for the good stuff. She could have instructed the DOJ to start investigating price gouging now, and campaigned on needing to win to keep it up.

The 100ish days wouldn't have been enough for wholesale replacement, but it could have created a concrete message of this is where I want to go. A campaign focused on already delivering is a positive message people could get behind as well.

With Tyrek Hill being detained less than 4 months after the arrest of Scottie Scheffler, have the police actually angered enough people with money and power that there could be actual consequences?

Not a huge surprise.

Harbaugh is looking at a 4 game suspension for lying to NCAA investigation. Ultimately meaningless because the first 4 games aren't against anyone competitive. This could be an excuse to not extend his contract that expires after this season.
