The lack of union bug on this Greg Levy mailer, sent by some random PAC, makes me think this is a right-wing attempt to pull votes from Brown.

Do Any Rainforest Cafe Patrons Know How Seriously the MOA Location Takes “Lifetime Bans”?

Is a lifetime ban just something they threaten when they’re really mad?

Or do they have a formal system in place to monitor and enforce the punishment?

If the latter, any advice on how to navigate the appeals process would be greatly appreciated

The US News rankings added a new metric on "earnings by major" I was a bit freaked out when I heard about this, but it seems to be a field adjusted earnings estimate. I thought this was just lead to over indexing on "high earning majors" but the adjustments reduce this impact in useful ways.

Earnings by major: Earnings by major compares graduates' earnings with typical earnings in the same fields of study. Based on College Scorecard data, the metric evaluates median earnings for a two-year pooled cohort of federal financial aid recipients who hold a bachelor's degree and are employed four years after graduation. College Scorecard used the 2017-18 and 2018-19 completion cohorts in its March 2026 release. Earnings for these two graduating award years were measured four years after completion (in 2022 and 2023) and adjusted for inflation.

For each field of study, the log value of the median of the median earnings values across all ranked institutions in a school's category is subtracted from the log value of the school's median earnings. These fields of study were mapped to four-digit CIP codes assigned by the ED’s Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) that correspond to common majors, such as chemical engineering, criminal justice and history. In order for a school's category median earnings to be included in the comparison, there must have been at least two other schools with usable data in the relevant category. To allow broader comparisons, graduate salaries for institutions in the four regional university categories were benchmarked against salaries averaged across all four regions, with the same method applied to regional colleges.

Log values measure proportional differences rather than raw dollar comparisons, reducing the influence of fields with wider salary ranges. Each field-level log difference is standardized about its mean value (z-scored) to account for varying earnings distributions among majors, then weighted by the proportion of the school's graduates in that field. These weighted z-score values are then summed to produce the final index score that is the basis of the indicator rank. Despite all these adjustments, the amount of pay associated with different majors cannot be completely isolated from factoring in the result. However, the adjustments minimize this impact to prioritize measuring the career benefit delivered by the institutions versus the academic interests of the students.

The College Scorecard suppresses earnings data for fields with fewer than 30 graduates. To qualify for an overall score, a school's unsuppressed data must represent slightly more students – at least 40 graduates and 10% of the graduating class, though this requirement was waived in the National Universities category because only a few institutions fell just short.

Ah yes, attacked for "advertising their cheese can be eaten by Muslims"

TILLAMOOK DAIRY IS UNDER ATTACK FOR ADVERTISING THEIR CHEESE CAN BE EATEN BY MUSLIMS.

They have made the decision of adding HALAL on their packaging. I’m sure it was with hope it would increase demand for their products.

What they didn’t expect was the backlash of public outcry over their products being pushed to be eaten by radical Muslims that are here to take over our country.

Tillamook is now being seen as traitorous to our country by promoting Muslim affiliation.

Perhaps had they made a different decision by adding that it was BOTH KOSHER and HALAL, the public would have acted differently.

People are talking about boycotting their company.

We already know what happened to Budweiser, Target and Nike. They have lost a tremendous amount of stock value and sales have plummeted. Nike has just been knocked out of the NASDAX 100.

AMERICA DOES NOT ACCEPT THE CONTINUED WOKE PUSH OF THE LEFT IN OUR COUNTRY.

The saying now is IF YOU GO WOKE, YOU GO BROKE.

Tillamook should revisit their advertising position. They may very well loose more customers by associating with Muslims, than what customers they gain.

Today every company should know that America will not accept the WOKE ideology of the left. Every company should take serious steps not to isolate Americans by attempting to attract a radical group of people as customers.

Choose wisely Tillamook. You’re still a small company and you have a lot to lose by angering your base of customers.

What a wild claim for why people aren't getting married. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/09/14/r...

Earlier this year, for example, an Iowa Senate subcommittee approved a bill that would allow couples to opt out of no-fault divorce when they’re registering for marriage licenses.

“In the last generation, we have seen the chaos of — the circus of — pure no-fault divorce, (and) the ugliness of divorce and the breakdown of marriage,” Iowa state Sen. Jesse Green, a Republican, told his colleagues during a February hearing on his bill, which later died in committee.

“A lot of people are not getting married anymore because maybe, in some cases, they feel the lack of support and accountability with our law,” he said.

You see, we live in a meritocracy where a guy gets to continually destroy education for children while getting rich because he has the right ideology

Guidepost was not the first school chain that Mr. Girn had run at an unsustainable pace. Back in 2003, when Mr. Girn, a Canadian native, was a psychology and philosophy student at the University of Toronto, a friend suggested he come work at a school in Orange County called LePort Montessori. It was founded by a wealthy bariatric surgeon, Peter LePort, who sat on the board of the Ayn Rand Institute. Mr. Girn had no formal training in education, but he ran a Rand-focused club on campus. That was enough for Mr. LePort, who hired him to help start a new elementary school.

My member of congress citing the Three Laws of Robotics as laid out in the _movie_ iRobot davidson.house.gov/op-eds?Conte...

In 2003, the movie iRobot laid out three laws designed in a fictitious future (2035) to safeguard human interaction with their Artificial Intelligence (AI)-controlled robots.

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
