No matter how much chicken feathers they give you, it ain't gonna be chicken salad.

No, I did not.

After watching the brief interview with Adams, I have to downgrade my opinion of his smarts.

I recall Spaavital being a very gentlemanly person in radio interviews, referring to his players as "young men". Accurate, but a bit Scarlett O'Hara-ish.

This is sort of like the ugly child being fawned over at family gatherings to make him feel better.

If they sack-strip Adams in the Montreal end zone, then yes. Otherwise, no.

That's all gonna come in handy when the Taliban moves on to Iraq.

Fox News host complains vaccinated are 'otherizing' anti-vaxxers: 'Next step' is putting unvaccinated into camps' The anti-vaxx movement continues to co-opt language used by liberals, declaring "my body, my choice" – not when it comes to abortion but to vaccines. Now they're taking that one step further, imposing victimization status on those who refuse to get vaccinated against the deadly coronavirus that has killed at least 650,000 Americans and is transmissible by just breathing. Fox News personality Will Cain, who co-hosts the weekend version of "Fox & Friends," on Wednesday's episode of "The Five" told Geraldo Rivera that Americans who are vaccinated are "otherizing" the unvaccinated, as Media Matters reports. "Otherizing" is a term used to describe how white majorities dehumanize minorities, often immigrants, as "others." Continuing the anti-immigrant framing, Cain declared, "We're veering dangerously close to exterminationist language." "Exterminationism" is exactly what it sounds like: genocide, especially of ethnic minorities. The anti-vaxxers are now pretending their lives are being threatened, not by a deadly virus, but by the socially-responsible who chose to get vaccinated to protect themselves, their loved ones, neighbors, and co-workers. Finally, Cain goes even further, walking a very close line to horrific historic events, either like the Japanese internment camps the U.S. created during World War II, or the camps Hitler where sent Jews to their deaths during the Holocaust. "We're veering dangerously close to exterminationist language. Otherizing –" Cain told Rivera. "Exterminationist?" Rivera responded. "Absolutely," Cain claimed. "That's the next step. Putting the unvaccinated into someplace else, camps. Whatever it may be."

Welcome to the forum. If you are driving to Regina, hang up about 6 air fresheners in the car when you get close.

'Stunning': Justice Sotomayor writes a furious dissent as the Supreme Court lets Texas violate Roe v. Wade ' Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a clearly furious dissent late Wednesday night to the majority's order allowing a Texas law banning abortions after six weeks of pregnancy to stay in force. "The Court's order is stunning," Sotomayor wrote. "Because the Court's failure to act rewards tactics designed to avoid judicial review and inflicts significant harm on the applicants and on women seeking abortions in Texas, I dissent." She left out the traditional word "respectfully" before "dissent" — a telltale sign that a justice is livid. The order came in response to a challenge, brought by abortion providers among others, against a Texas law that had been making its way through the lower courts. It had been set to go into effect on Sept. 1, prompting urgent demands that the Supreme Court intervene to stall its implementation until the court process reaches its natural conclusion. Usually, restrictive abortion laws are paused, in part because the existing judicial precedent is so clear that they are unconstitutional.

I am cynical enough to believe that the Tories introduced what was certain to be unpopular legislation with the knowledge that Pallister was as popular as cooties and would have to leave. That way, the pending premier/party leader could disavow Bill 64 and claim to be listening to the will of the people. Such is politics.

The Texas situation is far more alarming and even dangerous than would first appear. The GOP-loaded Supreme Court has refused to hear an appeal of the law, and defacto has approved the beginning of the end of Roe vs Wade. No doubt other states will seize on this precedent to enact similar or even worse legislation.

I suggest that whether you are pro or anti abortion is completely irrelevant. It is the choice of the pregnant woman. Period. It is not a moral question or one of how your faith informs you- it is a medical issue. Period. This "right to life" position is a convenient flag to hide behind as pretty much all of those in that position also condemn the "morning after" pill which ensures that any ovum does not become implanted and become an embryo. The telling characteristics of the "right to life" movement is their willingness to engage in violence and murder but are not willing to have their taxes raised to provide financial support for mothers. Once the baby is born, they lose all interest in the welfare of the mother and child.

Be still my heart. Now I won't sleep tonight.

The video is unplayable.

The miscreant's wrist really smarted, though. The Law Society doubtless took a dimmer view.

A friend who retired recently at MB Hydro tells me that the organization has been under orders for the past four years to not upgrade the system or make any substantial equipment purchases, The probable thinking is to cripple the services to the point where there will be so much dissatisfaction by consumers that the PCS can justify selling it off. MLCC is next on the block, though.

The ship is sinking and certain animals react to that by leaving.

So far, we do not seem to have a game-breaker receiver who scares the poop out of defensive backs. Collaros has the arm and attitude and it would loosen up things for the possession receivers and the running game.

Madison Cawthorn's office desperately tries to backpedal after he goes off the rails in conspiratorial screed At a meeting of the Macon County Republican Party this weekend, freshman Rep. Madison Cawthorn deployed extremist and incendiary rhetoric about the Jan. 6 defendants and GOP claims about stolen elections. In one section that caught attention on social media on Monday, the North Carolina Republican responded to a question about the people who have been charged with crimes related to the Capitol insurrection by calling the defendants "political hostages." He even suggested it would be appropriate to break in and free these people from federal custody — assuming he knew their location. "The big problem is, we don't actually know where all the political prisoners are, and so if we were to actually be able to go and try and bust them out," he said, without fully completing the thought. It's possible he realized he was crossing a serious line by discussing forcibly releasing people from law enforcement custody.
