He brought up a point I have been pondering regarding Iran's obvious fear of its citizens. At what point do we start arming the collaborators inside Iran or do we at all? Are we doing it now?
I can see both sides of this from our perspective. Arming the citizenry can minimize our boots on the ground. On the other hand many of these groups will likely screw us in the butt when we need them and could likely use those weapons against us down the road.

The Chicken Littles in this fanbase need to be deep fried.
Very few players have committed elsewhere on any team. I do understand that it is concerning when the basket is empty. Had this feeling when Lane started recruiting.

re: NAACP sues xAI over air pollution near Memphis data center

Someone on the OT mentioned yesterday the xAI was just gaming the system by using portable diesel generators they could move once a year to avoid environmental regs.
There again people talking about stuff they know nothing about. I have had to use large diesel generators on jobs. Diesel power generation is so expensive it is not sustainable long term. Probably 10x the cost of line power and prone to low reliability. You cant sustain a business using large amounts of power on diesel power.
Gas turbines are a viable option but also expensive if you dont utilize the waste heat.
If someone was running gad turbines without required env permits it is no problem for that state to issue a cease and desist order

A data center should not be a potential death sentence for a community’s health,” said Abre’ Conner, NAACP director of environmental and climate justice. “By looking to evade clean air laws to operate dirty turbines that emit pollution and known carcinogens, these companies are following a shameful, familiar pattern: asking Black and frontline communities to bear the toxic brunt of ‘innovation.’”
These people have no idea what a gas turbine is. I bet they dont complain when those gas tubines kick on in peak demand to keep their AC units running on those 100 deg Memphis summer days…
I would also believe that X is not operating those turbines but some Public Utility is that has permits… just guessing on my part on this point.

This just isn’t true. I’m not a Moscona fan at all, but saying stuff like this is just dumb.
People on here just like to say shite. I dont follow Moscona too much because I dont have much trust in any media and sports talk radio is 5% substance and 95% self gratification. However, he should have some inside info as he is on LSU Gameday media and Gordy Rush is his boss at least to some degree.
He does however get out over his skis a lot with his "inside info"

Unfortunately Pearson is a league top 10 guy here. I give 3rd basemen a little slack but not that much.
yrs ago I went to a game and Bregman made an error at short I believe. by the time I got home there was already social media post on him after the game taking one hop liners to the chest over and over from a coach. I dont see these guys with that level of determination.

re: Louisiana amendment 4 business inventory property taxes
Posted by GetmorewithLes on 4/15/26 at 8:43 am to Gee Grenouille
quote:
This is about the 5th version of this property tax on inventory. The LABI has their hands all over this. In general I support lower taxes. But we base our budgets on property tax generation, then we give businesses abatements. This is also another example of "our" legislators doing more for their lobbyists than they do for local communities. What's everyone's opinion?
Tax revenue has to come from somewhere so you have to decide what you want it from. Inventory tax is a bad business/jobs tax if your neighbors dont have it. I dont give a damn if South Dakota does not have it but if TX, MS, AL dont have it that is a problem for LA.
If you want better business enviroment then get rid of it but figure out where the income will be replaced or spending eliminated.

I was curious how Jake was doing in the SEC HR totals so I looked up the SEC baseball stats. Good news is Jake is doing well. Bad news is that LSU as a whole is doing piss poor.
The stat pages list the top 10 for each category. LSU has very little representation in hitting, pitching, or fielding stats. In yrs past LSU was well represented in these lists. In short, the team is not doing well on any front. The bad side here is that LSU does show up in the negative stat leaders like Wild Pitches and Passed Balls where we have multiple players on both lists. I dont think CJJ or Yeskie forgot how to coach since last season.
I am sure a lot of posters in here are familiar with this link but for those of us who dont see it very often here it is

Need to get over this. Many times the 20 yr old is physically superior to the 52 yr old. The issue here is the maturity or lack of it in this case.
