Portland for the win. The doom loop continues. But we do have a Women's NCAA Basketball Tourney Sweet 16 Tourney bracket in Portland this week and hot talk of hosting the Women's Final Four Tourney in 2030. Being pushed hard on all the local media and they pretty much ignore the doom loop with happy talk.

Things no dog owner ever knew. Your pet understands some words. Wow, science is wonderful.

It's well-known that dogs can learn words for spoken commands like "sit," "stand" and "heel."
But a new study has found they also can tell their "ball-ball" from their "dolly," "teddy," "chewy" or "squeaky squeak."
Brain scans reveal that dogs generally know that certain words stand for certain objects, researchers reported Friday in the journal Current Biology.
Words "activate a memory of an object when they hear its name," researcher Marianna Boros of Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary, said in a news release.

Well, solar doesn't work at night or when its cloudy or snowing or after a bad hail storm. Otherwise although it is really expensive and unreliable it's a great source of money for the chicoms and the grifters in our crony capitalism class. For the American taxpayer and electric rate payers it sucks.
Green Energy Beaten Black And Blue: Video Shows Massive Hail Damage To Texas Solar FarmBY TYLER DURDENTHURSDAY, MAR 28, 2024 - 09:30 AM
In the latest of countless cautionary tales about green energy, a large-scale Texas solar farm has been devastated by a hail storm that took much of the facility off-line for an unknown duration.
The March 15 storm battered thousands of panels with hail described as anywhere between golf ball- and baseball-sized. “They look like somebody took a shotgun and blasted it into the air and let the pellets fall down and shatter holes all in them,” awestruck Fort Bend County resident Nick Kaminski told ABC 13. Actually, the damage looks much more like it was inflicted with direct fire:
Located about 43 miles southwest of downtown Houston, the Fighting Jays Solar farm is a joint venture of Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and AP Solar Holdings LLC. Sprawling across 3300 acres, it's billed as promising 350 MW of capacity. Or, at least, it was before Mother Nature intervened.
Flyover video showed the sweeping breadth of the destruction:
