The rubble at the scene of the World Trade Center collapse is filled with the sounds of “PASS devices,” or emergency signals attached to firefighters when they are no longer moving.
The scale of overlapping PASS alarms bespeaks the horrible death toll that must have taken place here.
Yet worse - the alarms can’t be stopped because the bodies haven’t been found.
@25YearsAgoLive First question and I nailed it!
As a PA Native, I never wanted to forget how the first stand in the fight on terror happened in a tiny Pennsylvania town and will always remember Shanksville.

Everyone always talking about “talent density” in Silicon Valley when we really should be talking about how 80% of pretzels in America come from a small region of Pennsylvania
Still making payments on that hatchback? I'd find a way to park it indoors!
"Very large hail" is the most likely threat with storms developing in eastern Nebraska late tonight. Flooding, wind, and tornadoes are possible, too.
Have a way to receive warnings that can wake you up!
Since Sark decided to provide no context on this statement, I’ll do it.
Franklin won early and turned Penn State around (which he should forever get credit for). He was given plenty of grace through the 2020 and 2021 seasons when he went 11-11 in that two-year span. And then he went on to have three seasons in a row with 10+ wins, but lost to OSU and Michigan each year and still couldn’t get over the hump.
Before Franklin was fired, it was widely agreed upon that drawing SMU and then Boise State in the 2024 CFP would forever be the easiest route to a CFP Semifinal game that there will ever be (people seem to have just kinda forgotten that now). Enter 2025: Franklin had been “pounding the table” for full support and alignment, and he finally got it. He went out and got the highest-paid DC in CFB history and had the opportunity to spend whatever he wanted in the portal.
Franklin himself said the 2025 staff and roster was the most talented group he’s ever assembled, and for most people Penn State was the Natty favorite going into 2025. Franklin went on to coach Penn State into the greatest collapse in College Football history, losing back to back games where his team was favored by more than 20 points. There’s your context for why a coach was fired after making it to the CFP semifinals.
