Big money drains the patience – and the soul – from college football - MLive

“Every kid is a free agent,” he said. “It’s chaotic.”
College football today is unrecognizable. 
Here’s a snapshot of the new reality:
  • Arch Manning, quarterback for a middling Texas Longhorns team, is reportedly earning $6.8 million in NIL money, the most among college football players.
  • As of this week, a dozen coaches at schools like Penn State and LSU have been canned midseason – with total contractual buyouts topping $170 million.
These aren’t outliers – they’re the new normal...
Those donors matter, because that’s where the NIL money comes from.
“It’s basically become professionalized,” Wenzel said...

"You pay a very high price in the stock market for a cheery consensus."

‘When elected officials argue that taxpayer dollars aren’t going to illegal immigrants that just isn’t true,’ Open The Books CEO John Hart said. - M.D. Kittle
  • An investigation by the nonprofit government watchdog Open The Books finds illegal immigrants have benefited from nearly $200 million in direct federal health care-related grants since fiscal year 2021.

The Pfizer Job - by Dr Ah Kahn Syed - Arkmedic's blog

How Pfizer carried out the biggest pharma trial heist ever - and the regulators swallowed it hook, line and sinker. - Dr Ah Kahn Syed
Remember this? “Pfizer’s vaccine is more than 90% effective”.
Headlines repeated around the world and more importantly by the regulators FDA, TGA, EMA and MHRA...
Yep, Pfizer and the FDA concluded - after one of the quickest and largest randomised controlled trials in pharma history - that receiving a Pfizer COVID vaccine would give you only 5% of the risk of “catching COVID” than someone who didn’t receive their product1.
  • Just to reiterate - this was about COVID infection. 
  • No claims on severity, hospitalisation or death were made by Pfizer. 
The FDA agreed that Pfizer’s trial showed that for every 100 people who were not vaccinated and “got COVID” only 5 vaccinated people would “get COVID”. 
And remember this is COVID infection (testing positive), not anything else...

Keeping an Eye on the Storms: An Analysis of Trends in Hurricanes Over Time | The Heritage Foundation

Keeping an Eye on the Storms: An Analysis of Trends in Hurricanes Over Time | The Heritage Foundation - Joe D’Aleo and Kevin Dayaratna, PhD
Summary
  • Some politicians and pundits have argued that increased greenhouse gas emissions have led to increased frequency and intensity of hurricanes. This Special Report examines historical hurricane data to determine if these claims hold merit. 
  • The findings: Despite increases in carbon-dioxide levels over the past century, there has been no significant long-term increase in the incidence and severity of hurricanes using a variety of metrics...
Key Takeaways
  • The frequency and intensity of hurricanes has not risen meaningfully, despite CO2 emissions and temperature increases in the 20th century globally.
  • Increased hurricane damage in the U.S. is largely due to higher incomes and more infrastructure creation—which also lets the country handle adverse weather better.
  • El Niño Southern Oscillation and other natural variations explain the incidence and severity of hurricanes better than global temperature increases do.
