The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a nationwide ground stop due to frequency issues across the National Airspace System (NAS) until 2200 UTC.
Watching Fox's election coverage tonight. Brit Hume reads the returns straight. The Democrats are having a good night. Then come the excuses. Two former press secretaries, Perino and Leavitt, blame the messaging and the media. Then comes Sean Hannity waving it all off as a historical trend, the president's party always loses the midterms, Obama got hammered and still won in 2012. And the example held up as the winning message Republicans should have run on? Trump Accounts. A thousand dollars of other people's money deposited for every newborn by the federal government.
This is their proposed cure for losing to Democrats, campaign on the Republican welfare program. Its own defenders say the purpose is to fight the rising popularity of socialism. With a universal federal entitlement. They are trying to out Democrat the Democrats.
Rand identified the principle in The Anatomy of Compromise. In any collaboration between two groups who hold the same basic principles, the more consistent one wins. Both parties now agree that your earnings are the government's to hand out. Trump says I'll give your kid $1,000 of other people's money. The Democrats say great, we'll see your thousand and raise you free health care and another $3 trillion a year in debt. Once the premise is conceded, the side offering the bigger check is just the premise taken seriously.
So if anyone is confused about why the Democrats are taking Congress tonight, this is the whole answer. Bad messaging, historical trends, none of it touches the cause. You cannot defeat the collectivists by becoming their echo. An echo always loses to the original.
A program loss for Ohio State. They had two weeks to prepare and the most composed person on the team is the freshman QB who’s supposed to be the liability. Just an absolute meltdown around him.
And with that failed two point conversion, the ball game is officially over
One of the worst coached games we have seen at Ohio State in a long time
A team with two weeks to prepare looked as unprepared and undisciplined as we’ve ever seen them
A complete disaster from start to finish
“Differentiated instruction” is one of the most misleading phrases in education.
On paper, it sounds great. In practice, it often asks teachers to do the impossible.
What education buzzword drives you crazy?
Parents really posted this prior to a tournament game. How isn't 1 person in the group like, "Nah, this probably isn't a good idea." As their daughters warm up behind them. 🤦🏼♂️
Isn't it a little fishy when you have a HS private school coach that also runs a travel org...then all of a sudden his summer players end up on his HS team and all of his HS guys end up in his summer org?
Hmmmmm....🧐
Watching a HS game here in Ohio and I had to leave...
The things these kids are doing & screaming from the dugout are absurd. The crazier thing is the coaches/parents do nothing about it.
▪️Telling the other team to "miss it" on an infield pop up.
▪️Constantly swearing loud enough for everyone to hear.
▪️Getting out at 1B and yelling "F@&%" as they run past 1B.
▪️Heckling the pitcher while he is on the mound.
▪️Watched a kid walk from the 3B dugout all the way to RF.
▪️Multiple players arguing calls with umpires.
While these players spew all this classlessness and disrespect the coaches sit back and let the prisoners run the prison. The parents just watch and laugh because they think their son and his buddies are funny and it's just boys being boys.
All I see are coaches and parents that are afraid to step up and set a good example. Adults afraid to parent and lead these young men in the right direction.
How soft do you have to be to not confront a player about the actions above?
During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office.
Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known.
He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions.
Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?"
I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well."
The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year.
Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there.
But at game time, the tires were flat.
I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands.
Now it was time to reset.
"Shower well" means exactly this:
• Watch the frustration circle down the drain
• Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind
• Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest
Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight.
Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization.
I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball.
Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home.
You can carry all of that through your front door.
Or you can shower well.
I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them.
The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up.
Either we win. Or we learn.
The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day.
So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well.
Tomorrow is a new at-bat.
What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

He fell short by MORE THAN THREE FULL SEASONS but still thought the league owed him a fat paycheck for life because “they” made him unemployable.
The adjudicator destroyed him: “NOBODY MADE YOU KNEEL, YOU ENTITLED CLOWN – YOU MADE YOURSELF UNEMPLOYABLE!”
Actions have consequences, you spoiled grifter – now you get ZERO!
This is what happens when you spit on America and then cry for a handout.
