It would have significantly less structure and shape with circulars, unless you did something to compensate for the seams

It really is

His wife too. So tragic

Those "Italian" ones don't sound very good either

White is good because they disappear into the ceiling. Most fans are too ugly to be a room feature (although I've spent numerous hours trying)

Yeah, I have next to a driveway and regret planting it where it needs to be pruned back regularly

As they get more mature the hairs on the branches have gotten way more irritating and you really don't want to have to touch it if you can help it

This National Library Week, I’m proud to celebrate the vital role our libraries play in strengthening our communities.

I recently visited Prairie Trails and Tinley Park libraries in IL-06, where I heard directly from staff about the incredible work they do to educate our community every day.

That's quite a choice! (and definitely not one that I'd make)

What rogue Protestantism is this "no classes" business?

Oh no, I'm so sorry. I sip Gatorade

Hope you feel better

Trump approves disaster aid for red states 89% of the time.

For blue states? 23%.

When your community is underwater or burning, whether you get federal help shouldn't depend on how your state voted.

This is the most partisan abuse of disaster relief funding in the 47-year history of FEMA.

More of this please

Archaeology work begins ahead of £13.8m redevelopment project The site may contain remains of a Tudor churchyard, parts of a Roman city wall, and medieval items.

'Archaeological works searching for Roman, medieval and Tudor remains have started in preparation for a major £13.8m city centre redevelopment.

Gloucester City Council last week dug the first trial pit in the grounds of the 13th-century Greyfriars monastery, to the rear of Eastgate Market. 1/2

Anyway, I barged in before reading the full thread because the whole thing makes me so mad (like so many of us!)

Oh, I agree completely and it's also a desire to humiliate Vance because he's a disgusting worm

Yes, this right here

I just am not sure that it's so different

People so badly want public consequences and punishment for these people because there have been virtually none. We've been failed by other authorities this far

Yes, but there are lots of angry Catholics who are saying it too

There's something extraordinarily not Catholic about what he's doing that people want a public rebuke with teeth

I don't think Catholics are aware of that

Oh no

Excellent special collections merchandise

There's a poverty of imagination in our country
