Texas Cops Mistakenly Pull Over, Arrest Woman with Four Small Children Inside Car
New York Daily News wrote:The officers were searching for a beige or tan Toyota with four black males after authorities were alerted a gun was pointed out of the window. Police pulled over a burgundy red Nissan Maxima driven by Kametra Barbour's on Aug. 9 that was spotted in the same area as the other car, the station reported.
I'm sure there's more to the story, but "burgundy red Nissan Maxima" doesn't seem to match the "beige or tan Toyota" description. On the other hand, I suppose there *were* a bunch of black people in the car. If you can't match one description, match another.

University 'Fight Song' ??

You should be familiar with these from soccer. It's what the spectators sing to cheer on their team. It's like a team anthem.

They are just shit crowds sing, chants etc. Never called a "Fight Song" or so enshrined.

The university "flight" song, on the other hand, was the song a lot of white Alabamians sang after George Wallace's Stand in the Schoolhouse Door.

Before the shooting, he was--horror of horrors--bipedal.

Bipedal? Then he wouldn't approve of his own marriage!

He no longer approves or disapproves of anything.

I never had any interest whatsoever in joining a frat.

I'd never be a member of any organization that would have me for a member.

My father was in a frat. Now he's in a vat.

Well, he's in some small container of some kind. My (ex?) stepmother was supposed to mail me some small portion of his ashes. It has yet to happen.

Here's the video I really wanted to link to (it's the only one where she mentions being naked during the break-in), but I was unable to get a good embed link for it. Here's the closest I can get to it:



I don't like that you have to scroll down to it. It's unclean. Like most of the Deep South.

A German Plan: House Refugees In An Old Concentration Camp

"What? We turned off the gas years ago!"

Leaving the gas off during wintertime seems inhumane, but turning it back on seems insensitive. What to do?

It's a catch-twenty-seconds-of-sleep-and-wake-up-terrified sort of situation.

Rikola-Gunnar Luettgenau, who is deputy director of the Buchenwald memorial, told DPA news agency that what the city is proposing is a "bad solution."
I'm eager to hear their final solution.
