I went to the Division 1 state semi-final for boys H.S. basketball this evening at UD Arena. Huge matchup between Centerville and Pickerington Central. I'd seen Gabe Cupps multiple times, but it was my first time seeing Devin Royal. After watching the game, I can say he's definitely the real deal. The kid was an absolute beast out there, and was nearly unstoppable at times. He has great length, good athleticism, and a good touch on his shot. I think the Bucks got a good one. Ending up being a heck of a game, with Pick Central edging Centerville at the end of the game.

Where is the media? There has largely been a blackout and zero transparency from the government, refusing to allow any real questions.

This deep red, pro MAGA town is arresting journalists for “intimidating” officials.

The state and the railroad operators which have lobbied to cut safety regulation, extend hours and minimize wages is something that should be discussed.

Norfolk Southern funding radical law enforcement activism like Cop City in Atlanta should be discussed, as well as their deep financial relationship with the GOP.

Their poisoning of the environment around East Palestine should be at the forefront.

2017: After rail industry donors delivered more than $6 million to GOP campaigns, the Trump administration — backed by rail lobbyists and Senate Republicans — rescinded part of that rule aimed at making better braking systems widespread on the nation’s rails.

Specifically, regulators killed provisions requiring rail cars carrying hazardous flammable materials to be equipped with electronic braking systems to stop trains more quickly than conventional air brakes. Norfolk Southern had previously toutedthe new technology — known as Electronically Controlled Pneumatic (ECP) brakes — for its “potential to reduce train stopping distances by as much as 60 percent over conventional air brake systems.”

While the Obama administration had estimatedthat the rule could save more than $1 billion by averting accidents, the Trump administration rolled out new figures that cut the estimated benefits by a third.

The AAR lobbying group concurred that “the costs of the ECP rule substantially outweigh its benefits,” and claimed the mandate would cost them about $3 billion — or roughly 2 weeks of their operating revenue in a typical year. The FRA estimated the brake requirement would costabout half a billion.

Trump’s Transportation Department ultimately rescinded the brake rule in late 2017.

Ohio State hired Mike Dawson as a new analyst. It looks like he's had a good coaching career.

He worked with Day at New Hampshire and coached at Nebraska, UCF, NY Giants, and Philadelphia Eagles. He coached OLBs and DL.

@AustinWard @Bill Landis @Birm would this make him the heir apparent to LJ?

My wife and I are honeymooning on O’ahu in August (long time, I know) for 8 nights. I feel like I’ve researched the hell out of things to do all over the island. We have a lot of ideas, but don’t want to miss anything, and want to be able to fit everything in.

Has anyone ever been? Any suggestions on planning an itinerary, any “must-dos”, restaurant recs, etc.?
