  1. It gets better. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/rcna179731 Israeli minister draws criticism for saying Trump's win is an opportunity to annex parts of the West Bank A call from Israel’s ultranationalist finance minister to use Donald Trump’s election win as an opportunity to annex parts of the occupied West Bank has drawn international condemnation and fueled fears about the U.S. ally’s plans. Bezalel Smotrich said Monday that “the time has come” to extend Israeli sovereignty over settlements in the area — land recognized by the international community as belonging to Palestinians in their quest for a future state. The Israeli minister welcomed the president-elect’s victory and said he would seek Trump's support for the move. “I intend, with God’s help, to lead a government decision that says that the government of Israel will work with the new administration of President Trump and the international community to apply Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria,” he said, using a name employed by many Israelis for the West Bank. Discussions on plans to annex parts of the West Bank were held between Israel and Washington during Trump’s first term, and Smotrich said that he would push his government to engage with the incoming administration to gain support. “We will apply the sovereignty, together with our American friends,” he added. […] Smotrich has drawn controversy since becoming part of Netanyahu's hard-line coalition government in 2022. In March 2023, he claimed that there is “no such thing” as a Palestinian people, and in January he joined thousands of people at a conference in Jerusalem calling for Israel to rebuild settlements in Gaza and northern parts of the West Bank.
  2. Presumably Lake will deny losing this election too.
  3. They’re probably not Yankees fans anyway.
  4. Store bought or homemade Cajun seasoning? Is there paprika in it? If it’s homemade, what’s your recipe?
  5. Not sure which thread in the football forum this belongs in so I’ll post it here. I just heard an interesting stat on local sports radio (WBNS 97.1 FM “The Fan”). This past weekend, the state of Florida’s FCS, FBS, and NFL football teams went a combined 0-11. The Miami Dolphins have a chance to break the streak tonight on Monday Night Football where they’re 2.5 point underdogs to the L.A. Rams.
  6. He didn’t link to his source but the one link in his c&p was to Fox Business so that may have been his source which, unsurprisingly, would’ve been slanted and biased. I’m still waiting for someone to explain to me how Biden’s 2021 stimulus caused inflation but Trump’s 2020 stimulus wasn’t a factor. (Or how Trump’s $28 Billion giveaway to farmers to offset the cost of his tariffs wasn’t socialism but that’s beside the point…sort of.)
  7. I’ve been looking to up my paprika game. I bought some by Simply Organic but haven’t opened the bottle yet. I’ve been considering others I’ve seen at international markets, one in particular. I’ve got smoked paprika by McCormick and it’s fine but I don’t have a lot of uses for it. I’ve used it in spice rubs for BBQ but it seems like cheating if you’re putting it on meats to be smoked. That or overkill. These are what I’ve always used most often and I’m happy enough with them but I’m curious to see how others might differ in flavor so I’m going to experiment.
  8. Doesn’t matter. Stuffed.
  9. Are they going to try to score again? Okay, no.
  10. Big win for the Bruins. I didn’t see that coming.
  11. It was late, it was dark, I needed to add some charcoal and didn’t want to remove the center section. I needed a makeshift chute to add charcoal through the door of my 18” and found that trimming the flaps of a 12-pack soda box worked pretty well.
  12. Uncharacteristically bad tackling by the Iowa D.
  13. Before that big play to get them to first and goal I was fully expecting Iowa to have to try another FG and miss it.
  14. But it’s okay to bomb Palestinian children, right?
