Inbound marketing. Conversational marketing. The subscription economy. Growth hacking. Each term, now ubiquitous, had humble origins but a profound—and profitable—impact.
The phrases have defined brands. Those brands, in turn, have nurtured and sustained the intellectual capital of the phrase.
So how do you create one? Reverse engineering the origins of brand-owned terms is not a breakdown of the step-by-step planning that led from term identification to widespread acceptance. That didn't happen.
Instead, the process is best understood as a narrative: each term born of deep expertise, attuned to the language of consumers, tested in various forms, and told persistently yet patiently—until it clicked.
In retrospect, brand-owned terms feel inevitable: What could modern marketing be other than inbound marketing?
Note: Omitted from the table is Sean Ellis' "growth hacking," which became a well-known term before it was associated with a brand.
Notably, that investment in movement-first content may largely follow, not precede, the growth of a brand-term.
Here are the paths that four companies took—and the implications for those seeking to do the same.
Quick identification of the term doesn't translate into quick adoption.
Picking a term with a well-understood foil ("outbound marketing") makes it easier to understand and differentiate.
An eponymous book (e.g. Inbound Marketing) can help push a term into the mainstream.
We started describing the way companies were traditionally marketing as "outbound marketing" and the way Dharmesh marketed OnStartups.com as "inbound marketing." Our conclusion was that interruption-based, outbound marketing techniques were fundamentally broken.
That created intellectual space for Halligan and Shah, whose concepts of "inbound" and "outbound," unlike Godin's, were not entirely foreign to marketers.
In December 2007, HubSpot went all-in with inbound marketing.
We made the deliberate decision not to trademark it or try to "own" the term. We wanted the idea to spread (and the term to be used far and wide). So, in order to foster that, we let others use it as an industry term instead of something HubSpot specific.
In contrast to Shah and Halligan, who settled on a term early in the process, Drift refined its language for years.
Testing and refining a term until it catches on can work.
An early sign of success is customer adoption of the language.
You can postpone investments in collateral until a term take off.
Knowingly entered a commodities market and needed a strong brand to stand out.
Identified a communication gap between customers and the sales and marketing teams as a primary pain point.
Knew that no one wanted to waste time answering hundreds of basic questions.
The black bar represents the copy change on the homepage.
Once we gave it a name, it clicked even more. It became easier for those businesses to tell other people, "Oh yeah, we use Drift. It's conversational marketing." We enabled them to tell more people because it's easier.
Drift grew positioning into a philosophy. For Zuora, the scope of impact was greater and quantifiable.
Your deepest experience is your best source for trendspotting.
You can't fake economic trends; if you're right, you're right.
The prediction of an economic shift—not just marketing tactics—has greater reach.
Both HubSpot and Drift developed brand-owned terms that were central to their product positioning. Zuora, in contrast, predicted an economic trend that, for the company to thrive, needed to come true.
We didn't realize that we would actually create a whole new business model for our industry as well: subscription services– the idea that you shouldn't buy software, you should subscribe to it as a service.
Recently, I've started to ponder an interesting question: what if we weren't alone in discovering the power of subscription services? What if the shift to subscriptions was not a trend limited to software, but one that is going on in many industries?
Tzuo's argument for the coming economic change was pragmatic; he cited the potential economic benefits of subscription models and the impact of disrupters like Netflix.
The timing was not inconsequential. Also in June, Zuora launched a new product, Z-Commerce for the Cloud, at the GigaOM's Structure event.
The same sites and commentators writing about the product launch also discussed Tzuo's pitch for "the subscription economy." By that point, the company had already raised tens of millions of dollars in venture capital, and the product and company were a platform to raise awareness about the term.
The adoption of the "subscription economy" hinged on economic realities. Tzuo was right, which made the term not just a clever branding tactic but a real economic trend, one that warranted discussion in academic circles and research and reporting by industry stalwarts.
Inbound marketing has, effectively, become synonymous with marketing.
Conversational marketing may be remembered most for how it fueled Drift's growth.
There's another trajectory, too: The rapid rise of a brand-owned term untethered to a product.
Terms that precede products may be more difficult to control.
Without a product for your term, build a community.
Choose wisely—the potential for misinterpretation will be realized.
So rather than hiring a VP Marketing with all of the previously mentioned prerequisites, I recommend hiring or appointing a growth hacker.
a person whose true north is growth. Everything they do is scrutinized by its potential impact on scalable growth.
Ellis identified the perspective while, as a consultant, he struggled to find hires to fill his shoes. Without an associated product or company to keep the term in front of an audience, however, Ellis' idea lay dormant.
The black bar represents the publication of Chen's post, two years after Ellis' original article.
Unlike others, Ellis didn't have a product tied to the term before it took off, though he launched the community content-sharing site GrowthHackers months later, eventually adding a SaaS product and GrowthHackers conference. A book, coauthored with Morgan Brown, followed in 2017.
Controlling the meaning of the term has proven challenging. Many have interpreted "hacks" as a laundry list of shortcuts rather than a commitment to growth through experimentation and innovation, Ellis' intended meaning.
Managing an already-popular term is a struggle some companies wish they had.
Copper and Dialpad: Works in progress or lost causes?
Copper has staked a claim to "the relationship era," though the term predates their use of it. It is popular but has only tenuous connections to the brand.
Dialpad is still working to make the term "anywhere worker" widely known. Search volume is effectively zero.
Copper, like Drift, has taken on an existing term; Dialpad, like Zuora, is betting on a large-scale market shift.
As Daly writes, these movement-first strategies are best executed in tandem with traditional strategies, which provide an undercurrent of marketing that focuses on near-term results while patiently awaiting—perhaps indefinitely—the liftoff of a brand-defining term.
If you don't have time and you don't have buy-in, don't bother: None of the examples outlined above—which count as some of the most successful in recent history—went from zero to common in less than two years. Most took several years more, with an interregnum devoid of encouraging signs.
In Gerhardt's interview with Leadfeeder, he emphasizes the value of user research as part of the discovery process—the right word or phrase likely originates with consumers, not the company.
Qualitative user research comes in many forms—interviews, surveys, live chat records, website comments, reviews. You may already have the data you need to frame a potential brand-owned term in words your consumers use.
As Drift eventually realized, the least-adorned phrase won out.
"Inbound" or "conversational" marketing makes marketers feel better about their profession—they're not bothering people, they're giving them what they want.
The "subscription economy" is a convenient way to group companies and talk about an economic trend.
If successful terms usually originate from user research, a more practical set of aspirations makes sense: What would consumers actually talk about on a daily basis? If a word or phrase promises to make it easier to hit quarterly sales goals, that's aspirational enough.
With the exception of HubSpot, the "grand plan" for content to support a brand-owned term was a "grand reaction." Drift, Zuora, and GrowthHackers all invested in resources after their terms caught on.
1. Foundational resources. Halligan and Shah wrote Inbound Marketing. Tzuo wrote Subscribed. Cancel and Gerhardt wrote Conversational Marketing. Ellis and Brown wrote Hacking Growth.
Only Halligan and Shah used a book to drive initial interest in their term; the others wrote after popularization suggested hardbound potential. If you "wrote the book on it," that's a strong way to claim ownership.
GrowthHackers maintains an annual "GrowthHackers" conference.
HubSpot runs the annual "Inbound" event.
Drift manages "Hypergrowth," a conference whose name has its own emerging brand-term potential.
Origin stories get condensed. For brand-owned terms, years of gradual refinement and dogged proselytization are retold as a flash of brilliance that, immediately and perpetually, defined a brand.
In reality, the common starting point wasn't a whiteboard session or day-long retreat but years of work on challenges that only later could be named.
HubSpot's founders translated an idea into a book.
Drift's marketing team refined a concept.
Economic realities validated Tzuo's prediction.
Ellis got a bump in visibility from another blog post.
The flash of brilliance, without patience and determination, would've become nothing more.

Have you ever noticed that some poets who know their poems by memory but still tend to read their poems from a book? On the other hand, there are poets who might actually prefer to read their poems from the printed page yet feel inclined, if not pressured in particular contexts such as the spoken word venues, to perform their poems by memory.
In many ways, there are some longstanding, though largely under-discussed tensions among black poets and black poets, among those poets who read their poems from the pages of published books and poets who perform their pieces from memory. Sometimes, the tensions are less apparent, especially when poets such as Amiri Baraka, Sonia Sanchez, Treasure Williams, and Patricia Smith present their works because they have mastered the art of reading & performing. But those and and other exceptional talents stand out because they are, well, exceptional.
There's often a bit of separation between the different cultures of black poetry that I follow. I gain access to new pieces from one culture of African American poetry primarily through literary journals, anthologies, publications produced by university and mainstream presses, and from recommendations from people, mostly poets, associated with English departments and creative writing programs.
There's another culture of poetry that I gain access to primarily through spoken word events and small cyphas, youtube videos, and from recommendations from people, primarily students and artists--none associated with English departments and creative writing programs.
The tensions between those different cultures of black poetry are not always overt, and it isn't even always controlled by poets themselves, but rather by some larger factors and issues associated with conflicts between elite and folk culture, modes of print and orality, academic and popular, and perceptions about white and black cultural forms.
There's relatively little public, extensive discussion about the tensions and compatibilities between the cultures of poetry. It's rare, that is, to hear poets from those different realms discussing Natasha Trethewey and Saul Williams or Jessica Care Moore and Tracy Smith or Tyehimba Jess and Tyehimba Jess (if you can get to that).
Maybe the cross cultural discussions concerning these different modes of black poetry are less pronounced because the intra-cultural issues are so prevalent. For the most part, large numbers of "literary" poets are inclined to spend their energies getting published in literary journals, gaining contracts with formal or reputable publishing institutions, attaining tenure at a university, and winning prestigious literary awards and fellowships.
Slam and spoken word poets, on the other hand, must spend considerable amounts of time developing their talents to produce engaging and inspiring performances. Often, they must be willing to participate in night life, since many of the spoken word events, at least, take place at night. If they are part of a slam team that participates in competitions, they must also devote considerable amounts of practice time to working with a group of poets on a regular basis.
The results of poetry in one culture - again notwithstanding exceptions - reveal that much thought goes into how the words come across on the page. The results of poetry in another culture reveal that much thought goes into how the words come across on the stage. For the most part, as mentioned, the cultures tend to treat each other indifferently. For the most part.
I do occasionally hear about the tensions between the modes or cultures of poetry when I am talking to friends who are transitioning from, for example, spoken word poetry to "literary' poetry. A black poet who reads her poems by memory in a certain kind of literary space is often labeled or categorized in a particular box--the box leans toward the negative, even though the box can come in nice packaging (i.e. "ohhh, you're such a great performer.") Conversely, a poet who reads from a book in a spoken word venue is often viewed in not so favorable ways.
I clearly have more to think about and listen to and read and view and ask questions about before really coming to some solid conclusions about things related to this expansive body of work known as black poetry. For now though, these differences and overlaps between poets who perform and poets who read is worthwhile to consider.

Overview: One of the San Gabriel Ranges' Toughest Hikes
It cannot be said that Ross Mountain is an imposing peak. Rather, the real enticement of this 7,402 foot mountain in the shadow of Mt. Baden-Powell (9,399') is the adventure in getting there. Regardless of which of two available routes you use, you have to summit Baden-Powell first and then drop 2,000 feet in a little over 2 miles along a south-running ridge in order reach Ross. The return is the "crux" of the outing because you have to make up the 2,000 feet of loss to get back to Baden-Powell. In short, bagging Ross definitely qualifies as one of the tougher hikes in the San Gabriel range.
Seen from the north ridge of Iron Mtn. #1. Baden-Powell is center back and Ross is just to the left of the tree below the top ridge line. You can trace the ridge line dropping 2000' from Baden-Powell to Ross.
Route 1: From Vincent Gap
From the parking area at Vincent Gap (6,593'), the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) starts at the west end. It is approximately 4 miles to the summit of Mt. Baden-Powell along the trail. The 40 plus switchbacks greatly moderate the steepness of this trail so this is by far the easiest part of the route. A short distance below Baden-Powell's summit, the PCT cuts to the right (east). Keep left and follow the ridge to the top.
Looking east from trail to Baden-Powell June 2007
Nearing the summit of Baden-Powell June 23, 2007
From Baden-Powell's summit, hike south down the ridge. There is a use trail for much of the route. Iron Mountain No. 1 (8,007') and Mt. San Antonio (Baldy) (10,064') are constant fixtures to the south and east of you. To the west, across the chasm of Iron Fork, is the magnificent Copter Ridge stretching southeast from Mt. Hawkins (8,890'). You will travel through a level area on the ridge at about 8,300 feet. Continue down over a bump at elevation 7,407 feet, over one more bump, and then out to the summit at 7,402 feet.
Looking at south ridge route (foreground) to Ross Mtn. June 2007
This route is 13.5 miles round-trip. You will gain 2,800' going out and 2,000' on the return for a total of about 4,800 feet.

Route 2: From Dawson Saddle
A second route starts from Dawson Saddle. It should be noted that, as of this writing, Dawson Saddle is not accessible by vehicle along SR 2 (Angeles Crest Highway) because the highway is closed between Islip Saddle and Vincent Gap. From the parking area at Dawson Saddle (7,920'), take the trail that starts on the south side of the road. This trail picks up the PCT just east of Throop Peak (9,138'), travels northeast and just to the north of Mt. Burnham (8,997'), and then continues about 2 miles to a junction just below the summit of Mt. Baden-Powell. Proceed to the top of Baden-Powell and then continue to Ross as per Route 1. This route is about 14 miles with 4,000 feet of gain.
As of this writing, Vincent Gap is not accessible by vehicle from the La Canada side of SR 2 (Angeles Crest Highway) because SR 2 is closed at Islip Saddle. When SR 2 is open, Vincent Gap is reached by taking the SR 2 exit from the 210 freeway in La Canada and driving north on SR 2 about 51 miles. There is a large paved parking area at Vincent Gap.
The alternative route to Vincent Gap is to take Interstate 15 North (towards Barstow and Las Vegas) from either Interstate 10 or Interstate 210. Off of Interstate 15, take the Highway 38 exit and go left (west). Normally, you would continue about 6 miles to SR 2 and take a left there towards Wrightwood and Vincent Gap. However, as of June 2007, Highway 38 is blocked just past Lone Pine Canyon Road. You can take a left at Lone Pine Canyon Road and drive into Wrightwood where you can then connect with SR 2. Take a left on SR 2 and proceed to Vincent Gap.
As mentioned above, it is not possible as of this writing to get to Dawson Saddle by vehicle along SR 2 from La Canada because SR 2 is closed between Islip Saddle and Vincent Gap (Dawson Saddle is between these two points). When SR 2 is open, Dawson Saddle is reached by taking the SR 2 exit from the 210 freeway in La Canada and driving north on SR 2 about 46 miles. There is a parking area just past Dawson Saddle.
At this time, no permits are required for hiking to Ross Mountain by either of the two routes even though this mountain is within the Sheep Mountain Wilderness Area. However, you will need an Adventure Pass to park your car at either trailhead. You can purchase one ($5 per day or $30 for a yearly pass) at some ranger stations or forest visitor centers or at most Southern California sporting goods stores.
There are no campgrounds or wilderness campsites in the immediate vicinity of Ross Mountain.
Ross Mountain is accessible year round for the most part. However, it would be best to avoid the exposed south ridge to Ross during the hot summer months. During the winter, bring appropriate gear. Crampons and ice axe may be necessary.
Check with Cal Trans (see link below) on road conditions and closures during the winter.
USGS Topos Crystal Lake 7.5
These routes require a minimum of 4-5 liters of water on a moderately warm day.
Not for nothing that you will be within the confines of the Sheep Mountain Wilderness Area. Big Horn Sheep sightings are not uncommon so keep your eyes open and your camera ready.

Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (Fred Hutch) is launching a new integrated research center to prevent and find cures for cancers caused by infectious agents. It will be led by Denise Galloway, PhD, a Fred Hutch microbiologist whose research paved the way for the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, which prevents cervical, throat, and other cancers.
Each year, 14 million people worldwide are diagnosed with cancer, and up to 20% of those cancers are caused, directly or indirectly, by viruses and other pathogens.
Fred Hutch has established the new center to leverage its work in cancer immunotherapy and global oncology and apply that expertise to developing preventive measures and treatments for cancers caused directly and indirectly by infectious pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria.
Called the Pathogen-Associated Malignancies Integrated Research Center, or PAM-IRC, the new center is among the first of its kind to concentrate on cancers related to viruses, bacteria, and other infections. It brings together faculty with expertise in infectious diseases, vaccines, immunotherapy, public health sciences, cancer biology, and more.
The PAM-IRC plans to engage other public and private organizations in a global collaborative effort to reduce the number of cancer cases associated with pathogens. In addition to enhancing the understanding, prevention, and treatment of infection-related cancers, the center's findings are expected to provide insights into other cancers not associated with pathogens.

Monster Collars Aren't Going Anywhere, According to Ganni's AW20 Show
By Alice Newbold 30 January 2020
In a Copenhagen skatepark colour-scaped by the Serbian-born, New York-based artist Ana Kraš, Ganni staged an autumn/winter 2020 show that outlined the Scandi brand's vision for the 2020s. The key takeaway? Collaborative fashion with a strong focus on upcycling defines its new-era dressing. And big collars are going nowhere. Here's everything you need to know about what Ganni girls will be wearing next season.
Fashion is better together
After Ditte Reffstrup's 10th anniversary edit for spring/summer 2020 – which the creative director dubbed her "therapy collection" following a decade at the helm – Ganni is widening the brand's sphere. For autumn, she invited a series of female collaborators from the fields of art, photography, design and music to help her set the tone for the next chapter. "We need to stand together and work on new solutions for the future," Reffstrup, who feeds off the energy and inspiration of these global friends, told British Vogue during a preview. "This collaborative project demonstrates the intention of togetherness in the wild times we live in."
Can't wait until next season to tap into this holistic offering? The online Ganni Kiosk is currently selling quilts upcycled from past-season fabrics by textile designer Anna Clarisse Holck Wæhrens, hats woven from leftover yarn by knitting whizz Lulu Kaalund, and recycled cotton T-shirts with unique prints captured by filmmaker Emma Rosenzweig and photographer Shaniqwa Jarvis. New pieces, including glass designer Nina Nørgaard's delectable colour-dappled tumblers made out of recycled plastic, will continue to drop as part of this year-long curatorial project. A portion of the profits will go to I:CO, the partner for Ganni's in-store take-back schemes, too.
Are you thinking responsibly?
Coronavirus might be plaguing the thoughts of the fashion pack in Copenhagen, but far more pressing for Ditte and her husband, Ganni founder, Nicolaj Reffstrup is the global climate crisis. For autumn/winter 2020, every stage of their "responsible" creative process was approached with the term "reuse" in mind. The brand now has a four-strong sustainability team, one member dedicated to traceability, another mapping out the company's sustainability journey via the Higg Index, and Nicolaj himself overseeing the innovation side of the studio. Ditte's favourite piece in the autumnal edit is a coat woven from disused wool samples – a process that was inspired by "the old days of mending and making do, rather than casting aside old garments". The duo is also really happy with the softness of the organic cotton sourced from a new supplier (a bonus of the brand's stratospheric rise and increasing profit margins means Ganni has upped the quality of the factories and fabrications it works with, in addition to hiring skilled workers).
Prairie collars are getting a grungy reboot – yes, really
Ganni's wide, frilly-collared shirts won the hearts of Little Women fashion fans everywhere, so it's no surprise the brand is reworking the sell-out styles for next season. The twist? The cotton-poplin versions are out. In their place are leather and denim blousons sprouting the same micro ruffles, but with a lower neckline. Reffstrup, who wears a spearmint-striped iteration tucked into high-waisted jeans when we meet, originally souped up the neckline of her shirting to add extra oomph to plain knitwear. She admits she can't quite look at a normal collar the same way now, so there's no going back...
Bucket hats are out, berets are in
Cali-style headwear is reserved for tropical climes only, as Ganni models walked the runway with jaunty knitted hats sitting nonchalantly upon their crowns. "When you put these crochet berets on, they make you sit up a little straighter and walk a little taller," says Reffstrup, miming the action of putting on a hat and then pouting. The other accessory of the season? Stomper boots, because, quite simply, "They give you the best walk," she grins. "They make a girl look so self-assured, you know?"
Suit up, but make it slouchy
Reffstrup has always set out to "make women feel like they are capable of anything" in her designs, and her ever-expanding network of female creatives has influenced a new grown-up uniform. "I can't say why, but I just have a good feeling about tailoring," she muses. For autumn/winter 2020, there are slouchy separates in abundance, and prints have been phased out in favour of a darker, moodier palette. "Next season, who knows if there will be suits, but for now I like the sharpness. It's that feeling of walking a little taller again."

2016: A Man and his Presidency in Film Review
Michelle Moons Send an email September 12, 2012
Who is Barack Hussein Obama?
What insight do his own words offer into his thinking?
Why has he taken certain strange actions? For one, returning the gifted bust of Winston Churchill to England. Or stifling US oil development while granting offshore opportunities to Brazil, Columbia and Mexico.
How does he think and how did his upbringing mold his thought process.
Dinesh D'Souza gives a unique perspective, raised under a similar culture, on Obama's mindset in his book The Roots of Obama's Rage, on which the movie 2016 is based. Produced by the Oscar-winning Gerald R. Molen, and co-written and directed by Dinesh and John Sullivan, is this compelling look into the mindset of our 44th United States President, Barack Hussein Obama.
A few weeks ago I went to a pre-screening of this film in La Jolla, CA, playing now and rolling out in additional theaters in coming weeks. This film takes Dinesh's unique understanding of Obama's mindset, as someone who also spent much of his childhood amongst the anti-colonialist ideology and influence. With that understanding, the film seeks to take a journey into what America will be like by 2016, should President Obama be re-elected.
Approximately an hour and a half long and categorically a documentary, you may skip to think boring, but WAIT! This film truly engages those watching and offers perspective to a complete understanding of who this man, Barack Obama is, in light of his background and actions through his young adulthood until now. Introducing relevant and much ignored facts that address the many questions surrounding the strange actions taken by our current U.S. President.
Dinesh offers his insight into Obama, "Obama's goal is to shrink America. He wants to reduce America's footprint in the world because he thinks we are stepping on the world."
But do the citizens of this nation agree? Do you agree? And would you still hold the same position given greater information on Barack, the man?
Obama's book, that is responded to by Dinesh, artfully entitled Dreams FROM My Father, points to the fact that Obama's dreams are directly those of his absentee father before him. One needs simply to look at Obama's own words to gain insight into his thinking, thus the film references Dreams throughout.
His father being a driving influence, there are clearly others noted in 2016 that influenced Obama's life. As most young people, those that we allow to speak meaning into our lives, influence our thoughts and opinions as we grow into adulthood.
The film delves into Obama's mentor as a youth, card-carrying member of the communist party, Frank Marshall Davis. A scholar and writer of a book on Frank Marshall Davis, Frank Kengor weighs in on Frank's ideology.
Other influences discussed include Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers. These men supported the ideological way of thinking that echoed that of Barack's father.
Barack's own grandmother, by whom he was raised for a significant portion of his childhood, states in Obama's book that Barack is "following directly in the footprints of his father's vision."
Dinesh D'Souza says, "Who was Barack Obama Sr.? He was a Lou tribesman who grew up in Kenya and studied at Harvard. He was a polygamist who had, over the course of his lifetime, 4 wives and 8 children. He was also a regular drunk driver who got into numerous accidents, killing a man in one and causing his own legs to be amputated due to injury in another. In 1982 he got drunk at a bar in Nairobi and drove into a tree, killing himself."
This only touches on the movie's look into Obama Sr. 2016 points out the pivotal moment that Obama lost the deified vision he long held of his father when Barack Sr. died. Yet Barack would carry on the 'dreams FROM his father'.
"Theoretically there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100 percent of income, so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed." – Barack Hussein Obama, Sr.
"Obama has a dream, a dream from his father – that the sins of colonialism be set right, and America be downsized. America has a dream, from our founding fathers – that together we must perfect liberty, and that America must grow so that liberty grows. Which dream will we carry into 2016?" – Dinesh D'Souza
"What dream will we carry into 2016?" asks Dinesh.
Could this film bring a game-changing element to the election this November? Will it win over independents?
The answer rests with you and with me.
Dave Mustaine, lead singer of the band Megadeth said of 2016, "As an American who voted both Democrat and Republican, I am a non-partisan, or independent voter. Watching 'Obama 2016' reminded me of 'The Wizard of Oz,' when they pulled the curtain back, and all was revealed. Americans must see this film before the election."
No matter your opinion, go see 2016. Tell your friends, family and neighbors to get to theaters and understand the man that has led our United States of America the past three and a half years. Do your homework. Then vote with courage of conviction.

Harvey Nichols is to sell the debut perfume collection from Scotland's first fragrance house, Kingdom Scotland, in Edinburgh.
Drawing on Scotland's cultural heritage and on images and textures of the natural landscape, the fledgling fragrance house showcases Scotland in an innovative, contemporary context.
With a background in the world of luxury whisky and a fascination in the elemental natural landscape, founder Imogen Russon-Taylor has created an evocative and modern perfume house – and is delighted to have the fragrances in Harvey Nichols.
As in the art of distilling whisky, each fragrance is carefully crafted using only the finest natural and aromatic ingredients, which are expertly selected and blended.
Every fragrant release is then slowly matured until it's ready to bottle. From start to finish, each unique batch is individually numbered, bottled and packaged in Edinburgh.
The glass bottles are both classic and timeless.
Following in the footsteps of other unisex perfume pioneers, all three fragrances are designed to appeal to both men and women.
Imogen said: 'Scotland deserves a fragrance house of quality and creative expression.
'Scent has that unique ability to transport you to a memory, a place, a moment in time. I want to create that "sense of place" in my fragrances… There is so much pleasure to be had through our sense of smell.
A fragrance in tribute to the Scottish botanist and Arctic explorer – Isobel Wylie Hutchison. Albaura captures the freshness of snow and glacial ice, blended with berries and botanicals, with a sophisticated base. Ideally worn during the day.
A transporting herbaceous and woody scent, invitingly fresh. A gateway to the ancient Caledonian forests of Scotland. Ideally worn day – evening.
A scent inspired by metamorphic rock and the geology of Scotland. This fragrance also references Russon-Taylor's love of Islay Malt whisky – with a smouldering, spicy aspect that is softened with the heart of incense and dark rose. Complex and rich, with an intense transformation on the skin. Ideally worn at night-time.

LSU pitcher Devin Fonenot is comforted by head coach Paul Mainieri, after losing Game 2 of the NCAA college baseball super regional tournament to Florida State, 5-4, in the 12th inning in Baton Rouge, La., Sunday, June 9, 2019. (David Grunfeld/The Times-Picayune via AP) (Photo: The Associated Press)
BATON ROUGE — Hmm, I wonder if Florida State baseball coach Mike Martin would have lasted at LSU for 40 years and to his 75th birthday without ever winning a national championship?
He will be taking the Seminoles to Omaha, Nebraska, later this week for his 17th College World Series. Have a big steak and stogie — in that order — at Omaha Prime on 11th Street and at Havana Garage just around the corner on Howard Avenue in the Old Market, respectively, on me.
Wish I could be there. Of course, if I was, you wouldn't, but anyway.
And then go ahead and win it all. I have a feeling LSU fans will be pulling for Martin, who retires as soon as Florida State's season ends this year. How cool it would be for him to win it on his last try?
MORE: LSU loses pair of close Super Regional games amid mistakes
One of the writers covering Florida State went to the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament last month to write about Martin's last game as he was not expected to reach the NCAA postseason.
Then he went to the NCAA Regional in Athens, Georgia, to write about Martin's last game as he was not expected to beat Georgia in Athens. Then he went to the Super Regional in Baton Rouge to write about Martin's last game as he was not expected to beat LSU here.
MORE: Florida State's Mike Martin loved is time at the Box
And now he's off to Omaha for what will be Martin's last game. Really. Unless.
Florida State is feeling good today that it didn't let Martin retire after the 2018 season when his contract expired. Florida State is feeling good today that it did not fire Martin in the 1990s when his best was a runner-up finish in Omaha in 1986. Florida State is feeling good today that it did not fire Martin in the 2000s when his best was another runner-up finish in 1999.
Florida State must have felt good on Jan. 1, 1994, when it did not fire football coach Bobby Bowden for not winning the national championship from 1976-93 because he won the national title that night in the Orange Bowl, 18-16, over Nebraska and won another six years later.
Martin and Bowden were at the same school at the same time for a combined 56 years without a title and a handful of bridesmaid finishes and stayed on. Good things come to those who wait and don't fire a very successful coach — sometimes.
Meanwhile, at LSU, a national championship winning football coach in 2007 with a runner-up finish in 2011 was almost fired in 2015 and then fired in 2016. That one, though, needed to happen. Things were slipping away ... to the Chick-fil-A Bowl, Music City Bowl and Texas Bowl at the end, which is a far cry from a Super Regional and CWS in the last three years of LSU Baseball.
Yet a national championship winning baseball coach in 2009 with a runner-up finish in 2017 is considered fire fodder after NCAA Regional and Super Regional finishes the last two years by some. Fortunately, the sum of that some with such a ridiculous notion does not amount too much.
LSU baseball coach Paul Mainieri had a rough weekend, yes. He was swept at home in a Super Regional for the second time in four years and third time in eight years, and his team didn't look in championship form, while the home crowd sure was. The scores were close, 6-4 Saturday and 5-4 Sunday in 12 innings, but that makes it all the more frustrating.
Little things killed the Tigers — 14 walks over the two games and two critical base running blunders in each game with three at second base and one at third. That in part goes under coaching and in part under bad luck.
Stony Brook won the 2012 Super here because of a LSU choke. It went 0-and-2 in Omaha. And Houston advanced from the NCAA Regional here in 2014 also because of a choke. It didn't make it to Omaha.
But the Super victor here four years ago — Coastal Carolina — won it all. And who knows? Florida State could win it all this year. It has the starting pitching to do it. The Seminoles' weekend rotation of junior left-hander Drew Parrish (8-5), sophomore right-hander CJ Van Eyk (10-3) and sophomore right-hander Conor Grady (9-5) is a combined 27-13 on the season, and the latter two have earned run averages at 3.80 or lower.
The Seminoles also have a closer with 12 saves and a 1.40 ERA in junior right-hander J.C. Flowers, who also plays center field and is hitting .271 with 53 RBIs, 13 home runs, 11 doubles, and 11 stolen bases.
LSU's starting rotation for its final weekend featured freshmen right-handers Cole Henry (4-2, 3.39) and Landon Marceaux (5-2, 4.66 ERA) and sophomore right-hander Eric Walker (5-4, 5.47 ERA). All three were coming off arm injuries - the first two this season and Walker from the 2017 season after a year layoff. They finished a combined 14-8 on the season, and the latter two finished with ERAs of 4.66 or higher.
Sophomore right-hander Devin Fontenot (5-4, 3.71 ERA), who had his Omaha game on Sunday, led LSU in saves with seven. No one else had more than three. Junior right-hander Zack Hess (4-5, 4.71 ERA) moved from starter to short relief late in the season and had two saves, but he allowed 15 home runs, including eight over his last nine appearances and two in NCAA play. He also walked seven over his last 11 innings.
Meanwhile, LSU had no left-handed pitchers this season, which is a huge recruiting blunder. Florida State took full advantage of that with three lefties playing major roles. Reese Albert went 2-for-5 with four RBIs and two home runs in the win Saturday. Drew Mendoza went 2-for-5 with the walk-off single in the 12th Sunday. And Tim Becker went 2-for-7 over the two games with two RBIs.
Oh, and Mainieri lost his newly crowned ace, Henry, after just two innings in the Super opener on Saturday to a returning sore arm.
So, all things considered - including an arm injury to freshman right-hander Jaden Hill (1-0, 1.80 ERA) after starting the first two weekends of the season - this was still a pretty good season for LSU. That No. 1 preseason ranking was based on a roster void of injuries to Hill, Henry, Marceaux and right-handed reliever Trent Vietmeier (3-1, 5.24 ERA).
If Henry is able to pitch as well and as deep as he did just a week prior, then LSU likely wins the first game on Saturday with Todd Peterson finishing the game. Then, who knows? What if Florida State had lost its ace — Van Eyk — after two innings on Sunday?
Underachieving season? Yes. But also an Incredible bad luck season as far as pitcher injuries for LSU.
And just when you thought that plague was over, it started again. Henry, who missed from April 20 through May 20 with a sore arm, seemed like the Bionic Pitcher a week ago when he struck out six in a five-inning two-hitter against Southern Mississippi with fastballs checking in between 95-97.
"This is probably the best I've felt all season," Henry said just last Friday afternoon. "That break really helped me out a lot. I've never pitched a really long season. About 40 innings was the most I ever pitched."
He was at 49 and two-thirds innings after striking out 12 in a four-hit win over Florida on April 19.
"That month off made me that much better," he said. And less than 24 hours later, his arm was hurting after two innings.
"I was just shocked when he had to come out," LSU coach Paul Mainieri said Monday.
Henry, who had no structural damage when he was first sat down, is being checked to see if it is now anything more than muscular, Mainieri said.
Could you imagine a 2020 baseball season at LSU with Henry, Marceaux and Hill healthy for an entire season in the rotation — if not Fontenot — with plenty of offensive talent returning and coming in?
If LSU focuses better on base running and avoiding walks in the off-season and during next season, it will have the roster to return to Omaha if it also does these two things.
Sign more left-handed pitchers and an occasional pitcher-hitter player.

Does Life Really Move on
The story relates to each one of us, who at the end of the day asks silently with the closed eyes, Is life all about moving on? Is it a journey of making compromises, sacrifices and accepting painful rejections with a smiling face? It is a deliberate attempt to revisit the Uphoria of Love which is partially ruled by Cupid and Algea sharing their equal rights. The result is the unconstrained flow of emotions of those who visit the world and experience the mixed flavour of the painful happiness.
You would meet a pretty girl, Megha, for whom life is a flowing stream with lots of dreams and ambitions. The relationships are her strength and the challenging circumstances her best companion. She desired to fly in the blue sky wearing the wings of ambition and success. Love, friendship, trust, dream were in perfect balance till the God-of-fate fell jealous of her. It is her journey to reach her destination, the struggle for her family to find solace in introspecting her decisions, to move ahead, to gear up the life of her parents and to grow up as a matured responsible girl. The hardest time comes into her life when she finds herself aloof in this world after losing the most adorable person in her life, Mayank. But does the life stop for anything? It has its own way of dragging the person ahead and compensate with a much better life than they ever thought.
Will Megha succeed in accomplishing her desires to shine in the highest peak, or the hardships of life would crush her into thousand pieces. In the midst of all the oddities, she ultimately purifies her inner self and finds her true soul mate who completes her life.

"Henry James and American Painting" at the Morgan Library
by Julia Berick Aug 30, 2017 1 minute
James McNeill Whistler, Nocturne, Blue and Silver: Battersea Reach, 1872–78, oil on canvas. Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston.
The Morgan Library is the perfect place to muse on Henry James: John Pierpont Morgan's scholarly," curated by Colm Tóibín and Declan Kiely and on view for another week and a half. It's possible that the Morgan's show on James's relationship with expatriate painters won't convert the uninitiated, but it will undoubtedly serve as a pilgrimage stop for the faithful. There are some titillating letters from James to a probable lover, and who doesn't love a Whistler? I heard my favorite lines from , about the clink of unseen bracelets, when I paused in front of Frank Duveneck's portrait of Elizabeth Boott Duveneck: "Her smile was natural and dim; her hat not extravagant; he had only perhaps a sense of the clink, beneath her fine black sleeves, of more gold bracelets and bangles than he had ever seen a lady wear." It was the wrong novel: Boott Duveneck was apparently the inspiration for the uncanny Pansy Osmond in , not for the sophisticated Madame de Vionnet of . But the Jamesian perfume is so pervasive you're bound to hear all manner of rustles and breaths—that is, until you exit onto Madison Avenue.

Motorcyclist transported by CareFlight
By Jim Comer - DarkeCountyMedia.com
A man was transported to Miami Valley Hospital following a collision between a pickup truck and motorcycle Friday evening. The pickup truck drive was cited with OVI.
VERSAILLES — A motorcyclist was airlifted Friday evening as a result of a serious injury crash in which a driver of a pickup truck was cited for OVI.
At approximately 7:35 p.m., emergency personnel from Ansonia Rescue, Versailles Fire and Rescue, CareFlight and deputies from the Darke County Sheriff's Office responded to the intersection of State Route 242 and Younker Road in reference to a two-vehicle accident with injuries involving a motorcycle.
According to deputies, a preliminary investigation into the incident revealed a red 2000 Chevy truck driven by Kevin Dickey, 65, of Ansonia, was traveling eastbound on State Route 242 when Dickey attempted a left turn north onto Younker Road. Dickey failed to yield the right of way when making a left turn and traveled into the path of a westbound 1979 Harley Davidson motorcycle driven by Joshua Barga, 42, of Ansonia. Barga traveled off the right side of the roadway and, as a result of the impact, was ejected from the motorcycle coming to rest at the edge of a field.
Barga, who was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident, was treated on the scene by Ansonia and Versailles Rescue for what were described as serious injuries. Barga was then transported to the Darke County Airport to an awaiting CareFlight crew where he was airlifted to Miami Valley Hospital.
Dickey was examined by EMS and found to be uninjured in the crash, later refusing further treatment and transport to a medical facility. Dickey was charged with OVI and right of way when turning left.
The incident remains under investigation by the Darke County Sheriff's Office.

As a parent choosing an appropriate gift for a four year old girl can be a paralyzingly intimidating task. Choosing a gift that will not only entertain them and enthuse them but also take advantage of one of the most developmental periods of their lives is quite a task. There are three things to keep in mind when selecting the best gifts and toys for 4 year old girls, aside from their personal likes and dislikes. The toy should be able to exercise the young ones creativity, allow them to explore the world around them, or trigger them to test their problem solving abilities.
Best Gifts And Toys For 4 Year Old Girls – Buyers Guide
Many toys aim to push a child's creativity to its max and for children who like drawing, singing, or otherwise triyng to express themselves in new ways there are some great options on our list such as the aqua mat or stencil kit that allow for fun and creative drawing anywhere.
At the age of four is when your little girl will be trying to take in as much information about the world around her as possible. She'll most likely become more willing to travel further from home and will probably be trying to explore the yard and even the entire block. For the curious child the Be Amazing My First Science Kit is a great pick as it includes over 75 safe experiements plus a magnifying glass to give them a new perspective on their world.
Logic, Spacial Reasoning, and Problem Solving
Finally, some kids will prefer toys that exercise their problem solving skills such as puzzles. For these children a game like Camelot Jr. is a great pick, which includes a number of increasingly difficult puzzles to challenge your little one. Alternatively something like the Magbuilder magnetic building blocks, which allows them to test their spatial reasoning and build impressive structures, is a great pick as well.
Best Gifts And Toys For 4 Year Old Girls – Reviews
Camelot Jr. is a puzzle game that makes use of wooden blocks to create the setting for the puzzle. The blocks are arranged in a predetermined fashion and your child's task is to find a way to unite the prince with the princess using the blocks at their disposal. To do so will require creativity and logical spacial reasoning and is a great game for children to play on their own. The game comes with 48 challenges which range in difficulty with starter levels, junior, expert, and master. Some of the puzzles may be slightly on the hard side of things for 4-year olds but with parental help, it's certainly possible.
The 48 included puzzles are in the booklet that is in the box which shows you or your child how the blocks need to be arranged at the start, where the prince and princess go, and what blocks they can use to unite the two and solve the puzzle. The bridge building game is a great way to help kids develop spatial reasoning and logic skills in conjunction with creative problem-solving.
Be Amazing My First Super Science Kit
At the age of four children's minds are soaking in an incredible amount of information about the world around them and their understanding of the world grows by the day. Their curiosity is reaching a fever pitch and the My First Super Science Kit from Be Amazing is a great way to facilitate their exploration of the world around them and can introduce your little one to the world of science in an engaging and fun way. The kit includes all of the ingredients and equipment needed to perform over 75 experiments that are outlined in the included book.
This kit includes a number of beakers, three smaller ones, and two larger ones, as well as a variety of safe ingredients that can be used for experiments such as making crystals and making them disappear. The kit also comes with a magnifying glass which will give your little one a new view of the world as they inspect everything around them from paper and fabric to plants and bugs from a new perspective.
Aqua Magic Mat
The Aqua Magic Mat is a large 34.5-inch by 22.5-inch coloring mat with some interesting properties. It features a six color design and includes 2 magic pens as well as a brush for your child to play with on the mat. What makes this mat interesting is that the markers don't use ink or paints, but rather simply need to be filled with water each time they are used. The water activates that mat in the spot where it is wetted which shows the color underneath the white layer. The means the board is reusable as it merely needs to be completely wetted then allowed to dry before it is all white again and ready to go.
The resilient mat is perfect for drawing on the floor, on a desk, or even outdoors. The mat is waterproof so there's no need to worry about water leaking through while your kids play, and the markers can't leave marks on walls or any other surfaces since there is no ink or paint involved, only water.
Princess Dress Up Play Shoes and Jewelry Boutique
Around the age of four is when most girls will start becoming interested in dressing up and playing pretend. Children become capable of imagining themselves in certain roles such as a police officer, pilot, or princess, and playing dress up become a fun part of that. For young girls who have taken a shining to wearing mother's shoes or an interest in jewelry, MegaToy offers this set which includes play shoes as well as a jewelry boutique.
The set features four pairs of shoes that include pink, purple, light blue, and gold along with an assortment of play jewelry which includes 3 bangles, 3 rings, 2 pairs of earrings, and a small but durable storage box to store them all neatly in one place. This set boasts enough toys for your child and her friends to play together and can keep her out of mommy's expensive and delicate jewelry while still letting her exercise her imagination and experience the feeling of being a real princess.
Magbuilder 66 piece Building Blocks Toy
The age of four is when children become more and more capable of constructing interesting structures using blocks and other building toys. However, children at the age of four will be lacking the ability to make more complex structures, as well as the dexterity to work with smaller pieces and in some cases the strength to snap pieces firmly together, so LEGO-type building sets are out of the question. More typical wooden blocks are too plain for a four-year-old though. This is where magbuilder steps in as a perfect in between for kids who enjoy construction set the toys but are too advanced in their building skills to be satisfied with typical blocks.
The Magbuilder set comes with 66 magnetic pieces that connect together without having to be snapped into place. Rather, powerful magnets attach the pieces to each other allowing for the creation of 2D and 3D structures. The set comes with 22 squares, 12 triangles, 2 hexagons, 2 rectangles, 2 pairs of wheels for building things like cars and planes, and 26 letter cards for learning words and spelling while building.
Fox Print Princess Castle
Your child's imagination is limitless, and giving them a fun setting to let their creativity unfold in is a great way to enable them to explore their imagination even more. This princess castle from Fox Print lets them get immersed in their creative worlds in a whole new way. The tent is constructed of a lightweight pink fabric and features hearts and glow in the dark stars pattern across the outside of the walls. The roof of the princess playset tent comes up to a tall point with a flag on top to give the look and feel of a royal kingdom. The wide opening can be covered with the fold-down door and the two windows allow for good ventilation and encourages role playing and imaginative play.
The tent is 41.5 inches in diameter when assembled and 54-inches tall but can be quickly and easily folded down into a nearly flat carrying case that measures a mere 17 inches across. The spacious inside of the tent allows room for your child and one or two of her friends.
VTech Kidizoom Smartwatch DX
Many kids at the age of four begin to become enamored by technology. Pieces of play toy tech such as phones and watches start to become very enticing play options for them and for some kids just about anything with buttons that produces noises that emulate the real thing can provide tons of entertainment. To satiate this desire for technology VTech produced the Kidizoom smartwatch DX. While this is by no means a full-featured smartwatch it does come with an impressive variety of features and real tech that your little one will love if they've taken an interest in hardware.
The watch uses a rechargeable battery and has a splash proof and durable touch screen that can stand up to some pretty intense play. This watch comes with 3 activities and 3 action challenges that make use of the motion sensors in the watch as well as 5 games. The watch even has its own internal memory and a camera so your little one can take pictures and videos of themselves at play.
Creative Elf Drawing Stencils Set
Many kids of all ages love making artwork, but sometimes making more complex objects is too difficult for their developing art skills and while the concepts may be there their ability to execute them is limited. This is what makes stencils so great for young artists, they can use premade shapes to convey the objects they want in any color or combination they wish. The Creative Elf stencil set comes with a ton of supplies for your little one to use while making their art that will encourage creativity and self-expression.
The kit includes 10 colored pencils, 3 colored pens, 16 stencils that each features a variety of designs, as well as 20 pieces of paper to get them started and a carrying case. Each stencil features a theme which includes things such as an alphabet stencil that has all 26 letter in capital and lower-case as well as punctuation, a princess-themed stencil with designs like crowns and dresses, flowers and butterfly stencils, tons of animal stencils, and even ships and space, meaning your child will probably be hard-pressed to come up with something they want to draw that isn't on one of these stencils.
Tosing Wireless Karaoke Microphone
It's very important at this age for young children to express themselves in a way that is not only appropriate (ie not hitting and throwing a fit to express that they're upset) but also enjoyable. For many 4-year-old girls the joy of song is a great way that they love to express their happiness and love for the world around them. If you often find your kid singing out at home, or if they have a more serious interest in singing already, then this wireless karaoke microphone from Tosing makes a great gift.
This Bluetooth compatible microphone can play music off of any phone, laptop, or device with Bluetooth allowing your little one to sing to their heart's content along with their favorite songs and can even record to your device for listening later. The battery is rechargeable and lasts for three to four hours of use before needing to be recharged.
Melissa And Doug Hi-Rise Wooden Dollhouse
Dollhouses have been a classic way for young girls to play for generations, and the use of creativity involved in playing with a dollhouse, as well as the highly social aspects of it, make it just as parent approved today as it was when you were young. The Melissa and Doug dollhouse features an open wooden frame design that allows your child to easily play with the people and furniture inside while the colors keep them engaged and give the wooden frame a modern feel.
The set includes 6 rooms of the house, plus a garage with an opening and closing garage door, and a real working elevator to bring the people from the garage to the rooms on the upper floors. The dollhouse also boasts 3 small play people and 15 pieces of furniture for your little one to arrange and play with.

Terri is a stunning 16.3 skewbold mare. I have owned her since she was 5, she is 13 this year. She is a brilliant horse, fun and forward going. She has always been ridden in a snaffle. I have mainly done unaffiliated dressage, Prelim and Novice, hacking and pleasure rides with her. We have done some jumping, just not competitions. She has lovely paces and loads of potential and always tries to please. She is not a spooky type, she hacks out on her own, although I usually take her out with my other horse, so she is used to company.
She can sometimes be a bit fresh when you first get on her if she hasn't been ridden for a while, she never bucks or rears but she wouldn't be suitable for a beginner or a nervous rider. She is a fun, safe horse for a confident rider.
Terri does get separation anxiety if she is left on her own, so could not be kept in on her own.
She loves people and always comes when called. She is easy to catch, clip and box, good with the farrier, dentist, vet etc.
Terri will make someone a fabulous horse, she is wasted with me at the moment as I haven't got enough time to ride her.
It's been a really hard decision to sell her, so she will only go to a loving home. No dealers, time wasters or joy riders please.

If he was so sure Trump would win, why didn't he have the cards pre-printed?

What is an extra rule your family added to a popular board or card game?
teh_maxh 0 points1 point2 points 23 hours ago
Yeah, I think they got rid of it after the first time someone actually used it.
That reminds me of a loophole chess used to have. You couldn't call out a rules violation after the game ended, and the game ended when someone got checkmate. If doing that involved breaking the rules… oh well, the game was over, so you couldn't do anything about it.

Given modern consumption and population figures, a reunified Czechoslovakia would fall to sixth place, though.
Parler's Suit Trying to Force Amazon to Host It Again Does Not Appear to Be Going Well
teh_maxh 0 points1 point2 points 1 day ago
Tell you what, AWS will stop hosting both Twitter and Parler. Fair?
Google cuts off other Chromium-based browsers from its Sync service
Isn't the main reason people use a non-Google implementation to avoid using Google anyway?
Parler seems to be sliding back onto the Internet, but not onto mobile
teh_maxh -1 points0 points1 point 1 day ago
I think the point here is that submitting so much personal information to Twitter-for-nazis reflects badly on those people. You don't have to actually look at the data to make that conclusion.

Nothing quite like holding a general at gunpoint while another E4 goes to get a senior non-com. (Sure, it was only blanks in the M16, but the general played along.)
How much trouble would she have been in if she didn't play along? Or how bad would it have been for you if she didn't, and you appropriately responded to someone trying to break in?
What is the most inoffensive thing you've seen someone get offended by?
Well, he died thirty years before Arpanet was even planned, so it definitely would have been difficult for him.
All Parler user data is being downloaded as we speak!
teh_maxh 5 points6 points7 points 9 days ago
Well, probably not Wikileaks, but somewhere online.
teh_maxh 1 point2 points3 points 9 days ago
the EU can fine Parler.
There's a saying about blood from stones that seems to apply. It wasn't exactly a profitable site to begin with, and once they realise that no one's willing to host them, the company will be wound up and its cash on hand returned to its backers.
ELI5: the watergate scandal? It was before my time and I've heard people mention it but have been too afraid to say i've never understood what it was.
Wasn't that invented after the scandal became public?
EM demands full refund for a bike her son crashed.
teh_maxh 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago
I don't understand how a cracked frame ends a bike being usable. Can anyone clarify that for me?
Cracked carbon fibre can't be repaired, so the frame is definitely unusable. The other components are probably also carbon fibre, and if the frame visibly broke, there's a decent chance that there are invisible cracks elsewhere, too. There might be a few pieces that can be salvaged, but overall, it's dead.
LAOP's father finds a magical license loophole (Virginia cops hate this one weird trick)
I think there's a women in Scotland that can drive without a license because of that
There's definitely a woman who spends her summers in Scotland and doesn't need a licence, but for a different reason.
AITA for not responding to my old name after changing it?
NTA. She's had half a year to "get used to it". If she hasn't managed that yet, it's because she doesn't want to.
No you can't have a doctors note
I'm pretty sure "can't" means "can't".

He doesn't have reliable transportation to and from work
It seems like having his partner drive him is reliable. Sometimes "reliable" still goes wrong.

prions can't be cooked out
I mean, they can be, but way way after you've cooked out the food-ness.
My city, Erbil, capital of Iraqi Kurdistan has built 2 ring-road highways around the city, they're like 100 meters wide, people think it's a big development, what they ignore is there's no public transportation, split the city into 3 parts, you can't never bike or walk around.
It looks like you could fit an entire road in the median of the road.
u/seni0r recounts a horrifying experience that emphasizes why you should always let a speeding car on the highway pass you
If you're on an East/West highway you are either eastbound or westbound.
Though you might be going a different direction in a particular section. There are even sections of roads simultaneously signed as different routes going in opposite directions.
AITA for forcing my family to watch a "compromise" church on Christmas Eve?
teh_maxh -2 points-1 points0 points 22 days ago
To be clear, I think the Catholic Church's position is a steaming load of horseshit, except less effective to grow plants; I'm only repeating it so that you can use it. According to Canon law, "a person who is conscious of grave sin is not to celebrate Mass" (Can. 916). Catholicism considers homosexuality a "grave sin" (CCC 2396). Of course, the Church defines "homosexuality" in terms of conduct, but to "encourage[] and confirm[] another in malicious acts and perverse conduct" is also considered a grave sin (CCC 2480), so you're covered even if you haven't actually had gay sex (or just don't want to tell your family about it). Obviously, since you disagree with the Catholic position, you're not about to "repent" for not actually doing anything wrong (even if you wanted to just to smooth things over, it would not be sincere), so you can't attend the Catholic Mass. It is up to your family, then, to make a choice: either they can attend Catholic Mass without you or they can attend a different Mass with you. NTA, and if they try to convince you to attend Catholic Mass anyway, remind them that under Can. 1329, they would also be culpable.
AITA for bringing "detox tea" with me when I stayed with my sister's family?
It doesn't have to have only tea leaves, as long as tea leaves are the main ingredient. Earl Grey is tea, for example.
