Dan Eggen was one of the best journalists around, always thinking, questioning and making everyone's work better. His death is a tragedy.

Washington can only pay attention to a scandal or two at a time, which means in the Trump age there are all sorts of should-be-big-deal scandals that don’t get the oxygen or media focus that they should.
I'll bet you've missed at least three of these: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/five-trump...

Sounds like it should be super straightforward for students. So frustrating they didn’t use them. I would love to get a copy a template. I wonder if making it so they have to submit the pack at the end of the semester for a complete/incomplete grade is the only way to get more of them to use it.
when a number of students missed deadlines and said they didn’t know anything was due, despite dates on instructions, listed on the LMS, announced in class, sent in email reminders, etc.
Do you ever share these course packs? I’m curious what they look like. It sounds like a great idea… if students actually filled them out. BTW I’ve noticed the same issue but haven’t created anything like that. I did have one of my classes fill out a weekly study/assignment calendar last semester…

“The question is not whether such people should be engaged, but how. Interviewers should educate themselves about an influencer’s past arguments and be prepared to dig into the details, as CNN’s Elle Reeve did when she exposed…Candace Owens’s conspiracy theories about Charlie Kirk’s killing.”
So shady:
“…the Ross brothers had rerouted all mail sent to their father’s home, “purposely” circumventing Ms. Ross-Mahé from getting her mail. As a result, Judge Millwood said, she did not receive mail related to her efforts to gain citizenship and missed a hearing with immigration officials.”
"Ms. Ross-Mahé, age 86, was greeted at the airport by her three adult children. She was still dressed in her prison wear — orange shoes, sweatpants and a gray sweater — covered in stains and holes...

Sweet Moo is just as cute as can be. Initially fearful, now he just wants to be as close as he can to human comfort.

Reminds me of the tolerance paradox.
There are simply hard limits as to what one instructor is capable of doing. If you truly value students learning to write reasonable class sizes are non-negotiable.

So upsetting to see multiple posts of dogs killed today, and every week. NYCACC is the worst possible place for dogs. Ending up there seems more than likely to be a death sentence for so many dogs that just need a good home.
BREAKING: Eight children were killed in an "extensive" mass shooting in Shreveport, Louisiana, police say. The suspected shooter is also dead.
Same!

So if someone opts in, and has taken photos of friends, relatives, kids, even strangers, they’re “giving permission” on behalf of all those people. So lots of people have no say in this.
The whole “opt in” thing was always a charade but it’s approaching terminal nonsense at this point.
for an idea of how big a deal this is, my mom was in great shape when she got diagnosed and she lasted less than sixty days. six years is insane.
