re: What is Your Ancestry?

Congrats on having your DNA entered into a central registry.
When I applied to college, I applied for scholarships and got my TOPS and FASFA taken care of. I was on the hook for what else I owed not my parents. I probably sound like an old man but this was in 2012.
I think it's weird to compare to Rome (the city) and then say it's an area the size of Syria.
So are you upset that LSU did not go the typical PE route?

It's hard to tell what you are so angry about.
Toss dive. Oh wait, I'm not Les Miles.
I feel like LSU starts around where the have them just about every year.
2020 Bama was basically 2019 Bama with Mac Jones substituted for Tua.

Black Bears in Louisiana

Posted by Jebadeb on 7/31/26 at 12:45 pm
A couple of weeks ago I saw black bear on the side of the road in Avoyelles Parish. It was day time. He was near a strip of trees which had houses on both sides (probably several hundred yards away). I think I saw it from behind and I thought maybe it was a big dog or some kind of statue that was all black. When we got closer, my wife asked if it was a horse. It was not big enough to be a horse, but I thought maybe it was a pony. When we got closer it turned an looked at us (in the truck), and we could cleary see it was a black bear. It ran into the woods when we passed by (I had slowed down because I didn't want to hit an animal if it ran in the road).

I had never seen a black bear in Louisiana. I only saw one once in Tennessee when I was a kid. Apparently, black bear sightings are not uncommon in Louisiana. I was somewhat suprirsed because I had never heard of sightings around where I lived.

Anyone have any experience with black bears in Louisiana?
Not bad. I probably won't go listen to it in my free time or anything.

Setting aside the liquidated damages issue -

If we are calculating actual damages, shouldn't it be the difference?

For example, if you and I contract that you to peform work for $100. You tell me you decided not to do it, and I didn't pay you yet. I hire someone else to do it for $150. If I sue you, then I could collect $50, not $150.

For those who were wondering, Ole Miss alleges that the contract required an "early termination payment" if the player left the school within 90 days of signing. There are no allegations that any payments were made to Umanmielen. You can read the complaint here.

It's super weird for a head coach to date, let alone, marry a staffer. I'm sure there is something under law, NCAA rules, and university policy against this.

Ick.

ETA: If Lane Kiffin married a staffer, we would be talking about it for the next 50 years.
Suing players is a bad look.
I enjoy the show, but I feel the same as many others. The story seems to be crawling at a snail's pace in certain aspects. My wife falls asleep every episode, and I do sometimes, too. Right before Cole was killed, she said, that's Sir Criston right? She has no idea who anyone is outside the main cast.

Have not been in a while and my past trips focused more on going to bars. Looking for restraunts for dinner and brunch. Probably nothing fancy because my group won't have time or desire to get dressed up (women).

Hotel is near french quarter/canal.
