The meat supply is starting to fail. Meat processing factories seem especially susceptible to COVID-19 probably because of mist, chilled air circulation, the creation of aerosols and close worker contact. What other industries could be affected? What would happen if the energy, transportation, or pharmaceutical sector failed? We aren’t even sure which industries are critical. […]

From an email from Paul Foster: From my perch, there are two primary reasons the right doesn’t more passionately oppose child abuse. The first has to do with parents’ rights. The general conservative view of the child welfare system is of a group of liberal ladies who think they know better than parents and who […]

Independence Day and fireworks go hand in hand, but fireworks shouldn’t go in consumers’ hands. That’s the message the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is reinforcing this Fourth of July. Fireworks annually cause devastating burns, injuries, fires, and even death, making them too dangerous to be used safely by consumers.

September is Campus Fire Safety Month and this year the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and The Center for Campus Fire Safety (The Center) are working together to promote their national Campus Fire Safety for Students campaign. The campaign raises awareness about the dangers of fires among college-aged students who live in on- and off-campus college housing.

Fire chiefs from France, the United Kingdom, and the United States gathered in Quincy, Massachusetts at the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Urban Fire Forum (UFF) to listen to first-hand accounts of some of the biggest emergency response incidents over the past 15 months, including hurricane response in Texas and Florida, the Grenfell Tower fire in London, and the Pulse Nightclub shooting in Orlando.

Hi, friends! I thought I’d check in about what I’ve been up to. Ladd and I celebrated our anniversary in September, for one! It was the big 2-3, and you know what they say: Once you get over that 23-year hump, it’s all smooth sailing from there! Ha.     I hope you were able […]

Last Saturday was a fun, special day in Pawhuska. I had my hometown cookbook signing, which was really a fun time…     And we had our second annual Halloween Hangout, where families wear their costumes, paint pumpkins, and have a ghoulishly good time.     I love this time of year!     The […]

I thought you’d get a kick out of Paige’s Halloween costume this year! It made me laugh. I told her she should have worn a floral top and much more eyeliner…but at least it showed me she was thinking about me at college! Also, it has cured me of any notion I’ve been playing with […]

We are lucky enough to have a longtime Pawhuska mom (and grandmother) come to our home games and take photos of the boys. The Friday before Veteran’s Day, she took this photo of Bryce during the National Anthem. It’s a framer!   She gets great action shots! This is Bryce running the ball—love how there’s […]

We had a good Thanksgiving. It was Ladd, me, our four kids, and two extras…and I can’t remember the last time I cooked Thanksgiving dinner for eight people (well, and six dogs, obviously.) It was so relaxing and so enjoyable, and while I will always prefer to have the larger, whole fam damily together on […]

Is it just me, or did it feel as if January lasted 519 days? Wait, I know it’s not just me. On social media, at church, everywhere I’ve come in contact with other humans, I kept hearing the same sentiment: Please let January be over! Here on the ranch, it was a cold, wet, muddy […]

Hi, friends. Gosh…it’s been awhile! And so much has happened. I hope you are all okay, I hope your loved ones are safe and well, and I hope you’re weathering this storm with your family.

Thank you all for checking out my new, dramatic (not really) miniseries on Food Network, and for sharing your feedback with me! The kids and I are still filming away and having fun, and Staying Home: Episode 3 airs this Saturday morning. (That’s tomorrow, if you’re reading this on Friday!) Here are some pics from […]

Скваря представила главную тему ремейка семёрки трейлером, который спойлерит ну совсем всё. Я даже не знаю, осталось ли что-то в качестве сюрприза или уже нет.



Тем не менее, всё до сих пор смотрится хорошо. Все изменения и дополнения выглядят органично и логично. Удивительно, но претензий всё ещё нет.

Ладно, песня мне не нравится.



Уэмацу, меж тем, написал только заглавный трек, а остальное - Хамаудзу (10, DoC, 13, 13-2, 13-3, World) и Судзуки (13-2, 13-3, Mobius).

...eh. Исимото не могли позвать?

Тем временем Номура продолжает кормить нас Версусом: в длс к кх3 Ёзора, который практически Ноктис, - не просто босс, а главный герой концовки. Которая выглядит как тот самый трейлер Версуса.






Мне после финала кх3 немного пофиг на то, что там происходит, но насколько же забавно видеть, как Номура цепляется за свои нереализованные фантазии, и то, как ему в рамках кх позволяют творить вообще всё, что угодно.

Ну и последнее важное: Мёбиус закрывается. Туда ему и дорога, он был куском говна. Одно беспокоит: раньше на Мёбиус уходило внимание Китасе и Ториямы - как бы оно сейчас не распылилось на что-то ещё.

Mail-in voting, as it currently exists, is likely to guarantee Trump's victory in the 2020 election. However, new Democratic mail-in voting proposals can be improved so the will of the people can be fully realized at the ballot box.
