Harvard kids singing Radiohead’s “Creep.”
This could have gone very wrong.
Then the lead singer opens his mouth.
The Harvard Veritones have won at the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella — the real-world competition that inspired Pitch Perfect.
Turn the sound on for this one.
Boise State & Oregon came together at midfield after their season opener to pray & praise Jesus Christ 👏

Pretty bold of this management company to try this in Idaho! Would state law trump HOA laws or would this be legal since it’s private property? Thoughts?
Great work @SecRollins - THIS IS A BIG WIN FOR AMERICAN BEEF. America’s cattle herd is near a 75 year low as we’ve lost more than 150K cattle ops since 2017 while demand for beef continues to grow.
Today USDA announced its “Ranchers First” initiative aimed at rebuilding the great American beef herd. The plan supports ranchers who retain breeding cattle (makes sense), expands financing for independent and regional meat processors, helps young farmers and veterans get into ranching, and puts more American beef into schools and federal institutions.
As a chef and beef fiend, I love this because it removes barriers and doesn't just subsidize a top-heavy system. This can fundamentally change the supply chain. https://t.co/Ff1PuypxyY
An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.

The @NYCMayor Mamdani pied a terre tax (the PAT tax) will likely reduce overall tax revenues for NY and that’s before considering the capital flight it will cause.
When a NYC home is burdened with an additional annual tax, the home value will decline by the capitalized value of that new tax.
While the PAT tax is set at 5%, it is 5% of the assessed value of the home, which is generally substantially less than its market value. Assessed values are typically a fraction, let’s say 6%-15%, of the market value of a home and/or apartment so economically the PAT tax should be approximately 0.3%-0.75% of the market value of the home.
Using a 4% cap rate, a 0.3%-0.75% PAT tax should reduce market values and annual real estate tax collections by 7.5%-18.75% assuming people believe the tax will be payable annually over the long term.
The impact on current real estate values is not just on owners whose primary residence is elsewhere. As such, the value of all NYC residential real estate is going to decline. This will lead to substantially reduced assessed values and lower overall real estate tax collections.
And all of the above is before considering capital flight as more wealthy NYers leave the city and the desirability of NYC residential real estate declines.
Tell me why I am wrong.
This really depends on the area. Currently, the new construction incentives are moving a lot of starter homes. Sales data shows average sales price in $600k range and that is NOT luxury in Treasure Valley.
In May 1944, 23-year-old Phyllis Latour jumped out of a US bomber and parachuted into occupied Normandy, France. Her mission was to gather information about Nazi positions in preparation for D-Day. Once on the ground, she quickly buried her parachute and clothes, and began a secret mission that would last four months, pretending to be a poor teenage French girl.
Phyllis had been trained by the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). She learned how to send secret messages in Morse code, how to fix wireless radios, and how to spy without being caught. She also went through tough physical training in the Scottish highlands. Phyllis wanted to get revenge on the Nazis who had killed her godfather.
Phyllis said, “The men who had been sent before me were caught and killed. I was chosen because I would be less suspicious.” She would ride a bicycle through the region, pretending to sell soap, and secretly pass messages to the British about German locations. She acted like a country girl chatting with German soldiers to avoid raising suspicion. She moved from place to place to stay hidden and often slept in forests finding her own food.
Phyllis also came up with a clever way to hide her secret codes. She wrote them on a piece of silk and pricked it with a pin each time she used a code. She kept it hidden inside a hair tie. Once when the Germans briefly detained her and searched her she took out the hair tie and let her hair fall, showing she had nothing to hide. In the summer of 1944, Phyllis sent 135 coded messages helping Allied bombers find German targets.
After the war, Phyllis married and moved to New Zealand. Her children didn’t know about her wartime service until 2000, when her oldest son found out online. This hero passed on October 7, 2023. May she rest In peace.
