  1. Active shooter on UNLV campus. Multiple injuries. Fire Department radios. Sounds like it is in the student center, Firefighters are reporting shots fired. Las Vegas and Clark County Fire Live Audio Feed WWW.BROADCASTIFY.COM Las Vegas and Clark County Fire Live Audio Feed on Broadcastify.com
  2. I get pulling the Korean servers, but why not leave the office infrastructure in place so Korean Partners can still get paid but use say Japanese servers?
  3. History According to Ridley Scott | The Nation WWW.THENATION.COM Ultimately what we learn in Napoleon says far more about the director than it does about Napoleon. By Mike Duncan
  4. Egypt occupies Gaza, Jordan occupies the West Bank under a UN mandate to build Palestinian governance capability and the Palestinian economy, Saudi Arabia pays for it. There is your peace plan.
  5. Elon's lost it. Video is on Twitter, said "Earth" will blame them if it kills the company.
  6. Sure, but budgets to pay for healthcare are real and the choices are pay for a preventable condition or that rare disease treatment for a newborn. That's a choice that more and more is going to have to be made as super expensive low population treatments become more available. A Dilemma for Governments: How to Pay for Million-Dollar Therapies - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM A wave of transformative but hugely expensive treatments is challenging the budgets of health systems in wealthy nations. Now countries with far fewer resources are wrestling with how to cover the therapies.

  8. This different corresponds with Netanyahu accusing the IDF of going woke by expanding the number of co-ed light infantry battalions in the Border Defense Corps.
  9. 14(c)'s are still something I'm learning about but my understanding is these places receive additional subsidies from the government on top of the ability to pay subminimum. The feds cut off their portion of the subsidy years ago in favor of funding Competitive Integrated Employment, but allowed the States to continue subsidizing the sheltered workshops, which some states do. The biggest thing I hear from the parents is they don't care about the money, this gets their kid out of the house/group home/ICF instead of watching TV all day and creates stability through routine, and for some the task of putting items in a box or sorting recycling is enjoyable for them. The horror stories are endless though especially given the segregated nature of it, not to mention how like guardianship there seems to be an inappropriate pipeline into these places. Maybe it's because they're seen now as taboo but the sheltered workshops but the defensive and aggressive nature of their lobbying activities is very off putting.
  10. Yes, this still exists. Opinion | The Labor Department looks to fulfill Biden's promise to disabled workers WWW.MSNBC.COM In 2020, Joe Biden and all the major Democratic presidential candidates said they’d end subminimum wage labor for people with disabilities. Parent opposition, backed by lobbying, make this an EXTREMELY hot button issue in disability politics. I've been in meetings on this issue, they've gotten heated and I've seen how hard lobbying firms hit back if a disability rights org goes near this. A lot of the subminimum wage employers are basically segregated sweatshops that prey on family fears that their adult intellectually disabled child can't hold a community based job, despite Supported Employment being a pretty standard feature in disability support programs for those with intellectual disabilities. I've even heard them outright lie that making minimum wage would put their Medicaid eligibility at risk.
  11. I don't think his guest is essentially wrong with a lot of the Palestinian sides, but at the 41min mark he discussed his take on Stateism, it said almost the quiet part out loud and a lot of why I'm having a lot of trouble with leftie discourse. He basically argues for a massively decentralized 1 or no state solution. Jesus Christ the solution to the Israeli Palestinian Conflict can't be some leftie anarchist social experiment. That's fantasy and shows a complete disinterest in peace, because it'll never happen, isn't viable between these two groups, and lefties pushing it are leading people to slaughter.
  12. IDF casualties by battalion to give a sense of the scale of the operation. Looks like 3 Armored Divisions are operating inside Gaza.
  13. The most important election of the night, from my home town. Access to this page has been denied WWW.THERIDGEFIELDPRESS.COM px-captcha
