JERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was directly warned by the president of the United Arab Emirates that Hamas was planning a major offensive just days before the militant group attacked on Oct. 7, 2023, according to an Israeli newspaper report.
I know you were a print guy, but do you have insight into what an Assistant News Director would do at a small-to-mid market TV News operation?
I've mentioned my daughter is producing the M-F 6 and 10 newscasts at such a station. The station's Assistant News Director just left to take a position outside the biz. He encouraged her to apply for the position. She's not sure if she's interested, or if she'd be good at it.
Seems to me that instead of minute-to-minute nailing down everything that goes into each newscast, which is what she's doing now; she'd be on longer timelines, more managing and less hands-on, assigning reporters and seeing to the overall image and direction of the newscast over time.
Wow! I another shrewd move to win over the voting public (short of getting prices down ) the Trump Administration has revealed their design for new Space Force uniforms.
I wonder what steps are taken w/respect to privacy & cyber security with these games. Anybody read the EUA?
Also, the other software involving filtering the voting ballots that the USPS is working on: I'll bet it has an attack surface script kiddy hackers dream of.
Has the USPS mention any cyber security requirements in their announcement?
No news except that I'm back on the protein shakes. Actually, like them because I'm lazy when it comes to dinner so I can drink one and claim I had dinner. I had dinner. :)
If any Republicans in the 60% happen to think it's NOT a good thing, they'd still find a way to say, "But I still support President Trump." Cuz sparrows and curtain rods or something along the lines of sparrows and curtain rods.
LBJ: “If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.”
I was out birding this morning and saw a bird perched on a bush, but it was backlit, so I couldn't get a good id. I thought maybe a sparrow. Anyway, I snapped some photos, got them home, and enhanced them some, and it turns out it's a Scaly-Breasted Munia. They are native to South Asia, but became popular in the pet trade, and some escaped, so as a result they have spread to other regions. They are rare in this area, but there is a resident breeding population, which I think is expanding.

The AP picked it up? That's good.
Looks like kitteh’s not taking crap from anyone.

If you had any insight I'd be very interested.

Um, no. No, I don’t.

Wait a minute, didn't we do this yesterday?

God DAMN. Can't make this shit up. Unfortunately, there's no need to make this shit up.
The Space Force Chief of Staff will now hold the rank of Grand Moff.

Ha ha. But seriously...
Seriously impressive gamer credentials, Shy.
OT!

Piker. If a Dominican woman offers you short ribs, SAY YES.
Unless you also played bocce you aren't well rounded.
I made sure my protocol droid spoke bocce
No, I don't want to play racist bullshit bootlegs of otherwise rather boring and shitty arcade games.
Ahazi Rebels forever!
Two of the games, Snake and Flappy Bird, took off because of smart phones. Snake is older than smart phones, but I don't think it was an arcade game.
I saw it in Microsoft arcade once.
No breakdown, tho, for how many Republicans in the 60% think this is a good thing:
"A new survey has found 60% of voters believe President Donald Trump is bringing more corruption to Washington."

I mean, what do the other 40% think?
Corruption has remained the same.

Whoever comes up with the bird names is a bit demented, no?
I mean "tufted titmouse".
Really?
I want JoJo to do his eulogy.

For real, I bet this was the thing that pushed Trix over. For those of us of a certain age, this would be a panty dropper.
