  1. IDF Hits UNRWA School Housing '30-40' Terrorists The Israeli Defense Forces struck a school run by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in northern Gaza, killing 37 people, according to a Gaza hospital. The school was part of the Nuseirat refugee camp and, like many UN schools, was used by Hamas to harbor terrorists. This particular school compound also sheltered displaced civilians from the refugee camp. The IDF says that from 30-40 Hamas fighters were in three classrooms of the school. The fighters belonged to the notorious and elite Nukhba force who took part in the October 7 massacre in Israel.

  3. More on Li'l Crackpipe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hunter Biden Trial Day Four: This is Biden Town [...] Today the trial resumed with the defense attempting to introduce new evidence which was apparently only shared with the prosecution last night.

  5. Thrilling Thursday report, see man: Lunch was the other half of the other day's Walmart sub sandwich, ingest we man. Lazed until after 2 p.m., when the mail came in, laze we man. Our new glasses from Mexico arrived, finally man. We took them to a local optician for what we presumed was a minor adjustment, frame man. The tech took a painstaking half an hour to get it right, one action hosed another man. We are pleased, si and see we man. We then siesta'd for less than an hour, cheated-of-zzz we man. A phone caucus with someone got hosed, reschedule for next week man. Din-din was onecan of Aldi chili, ingest we man. After shadows fell, we mowed entire lawn, mow-lawn we man. It wasn't that humid, but heat index over Many00, Texas weather Many man. The lawn could not wait another day, no man. We consumed Many (2+1) sweatbands, perspirational we man. We then off-cooled under the ceiling fan for almost an hour, super-cool we man. Evening snack was 2 ham sandwiches, indict them and ingest we man. Miu awoke and wanted brushing, accommodate miu we man. We have itineraried Many (2+2+2) ESs and 2 GSs for Friday, itinerary we man. Party with the rubias incipiently, cavort we man. And that was/is our exciting Thursday, whee man.
  6. Those Hindawi journals were all garbage. One quick look and it was obvious.
  7. May she, in P-math, live to Many00 and beyond, si and mam ma'am. English-only outside the regional forums, mam ma'am! Reported!!!!!
  8. The P-Math transgressions aside, welcome back, LB ma'am!
  9. Whether you're involved with USCIS or a consulate, do not LIE. Ever. Come clean regarding this, and take your metaphorical medicine for it.
  10. A post in this thread has been removed for suggesting adjustment from a nonimmigrant visa, thus violating the site's Terms of Service. VJ Moderation
  11. Big surprise. Not. There are tools to help detect plagiarism, but it takes honest, knowledgeable reviewers to kill papers before they're accepted for publication. Wiley is arguably the biggest money-grubber in academic publishing, so some chickens are home to roost. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Academic Publisher Retracts Over 11,300 Papers and Shuts 19 Journals As It Is Overwhelmed by Fraud Academic fraud is forcing Wiley, a major publisher of scientific journals, to close 19 journals after some were overwhelmed by industrial-scale research fraud. In the last two years, Wiley has retracted over 11,300 papers containing some fraudulent content. [...] While shutting down 19 journals is impressive, keep in mind that Wiley is the home to over 2,000 titles. The shuttered titles are all from Wiley's purchase of the Egyptian academic publisher (yes, I wrote that) Hindawi. All that means is that the fraud is more easily detectable in low-end journals. [...] https://redstate.com/streiff/2024/06/05/academic-publisher-retracts-over-11300-papers-and-shuts-19-journals-as-it-is-overwhelmed-by-fraud-n2175087
  12. This is simultaneously hilarious and sad. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Amazonian Tribe Gets the Internet, Predictable Results Follow To be fair, it probably seemed like a good idea at the time. The Marubo people, an indigenous tribe in the isolated Javari Valley in Brazil, have high-speed internet, thanks to Elon Musk and Starlink. The Marubo were likely entranced by the internet the same way we all were back when it was shiny and new. The world would suddenly be at our fingertips, and new ways of communicating would revolutionize how we did everything.

  13. Per this, 20% of all of, uh, Ciudad de Nueva York's hotels are occupied by illegals. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 135 Hotels in New York City Are Being Used as Shelters for Illegal Immigrants [...] We guess the mayor's suggestion that people take illegal immigrants into their spare rooms didn't fly.

  14. In the Trump RICO Case, the Georgia Court of Appeals Spanks the Fani Regular readers know that in the Georgia RICO case, Trump's lawyers mounted a challenge to Fani Willis (and her staff) serving as the attorneys in this case, but the court only disqualified her boytoy romantic partner, Nathan Wade. (For the record, we are always going to pronounce it as 'fanny' because it makes us giggle. If her mother didn't want it pronounced that way, she should have spelled her name differently, such as 'Fauni.' Or Fani could have just used her middle name (Taifa), like most lawyers who hate their first names.) In response to the judge's ruling allowing this Fani to continue to butt into the case, Trump's team filed an interlocutory appeal. We explained this procedure before in the context of Trump's D.C. case, so we will quote ourselves now: [...] https://twitchy.com/aaronwalker/2024/06/05/georgia-appeals-court-delays-trump-rico-case-n2397016
  15. This is genuinely appalling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm Sure People on the Edge of Homelessness In Lahaina Think It's Nice POTATUS Wants to Rebuild Gaza [...] there are no hordes of potential Democratic voters trashing college campuses and blocking major thoroughfares while wearing Hawaiian shirts. In Biden's world, the squeaky Hamasholes gets the grease.

  16. One of the worst such groups. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Student Protesters Occupy Stanford President's Office, Get Arrested [...] The students posted several messages on Instagram from the President's office including one identifying themselves as part of the "student intifada." It read, "BREAKING: AN AUTONOMOUS GROUP OF STUDENTS HAVE OCCUPIED PRESIDENT RICHARD SALLERS OFFICE! THE STUDENT INT1FADA IS GROWING." Outside there was a larger group of protesters who vandalized some property and linked arms around the building, apparently to keep police out. Notice the messages include "Kill Cops" (multiple times) and "Death to Israel." [...] https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2024/06/05/student-protesters-occupy-stanford-presidents-office-n3789719

  18. Interesting testimony! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hunter Biden Trial Day Three: Ex-Wife and Ex-Girlfriend Testify [...] Why would Hunter lie about his own drug use in text messages to his girlfriend? That's a mystery. This is sort of like making the claim that someone lied to their own diary.

  19. Read about the unsettling ability of the Democrats to replace Bidementia with anyone of their choosing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Democrats Wanted An Early Debate So They'd Have Plenty Of Time To Dump Biden [...] People like pollster Nate Silver are starting to call for Biden to step aside, despite many commentators still saying that's an impossibility. However, both Democratic National Committee (DNC) rules and state laws have a plain and simple path to oust Biden.

  20. Further to Boiler's post just above: ~~~~~~~~~~~~` Hunter Biden's 'Laptop from Hell' serving as evidence in his trial is pure poetic justice [...] Three years and eight months since you heard it first in the New York Post, Jensen said that the laptop was obtained by the FBI in 2019 with a subpoena from The Mac Shop in Wilmington where it had been "abandoned" by Hunter. She said that investigators corroborated content on the laptop with Hunter's iCloud that they obtained from Apple with a subpoena. We told ya so! When The Post broke the story before the 2020 election in October 2020 — publishing evidence from the laptop of Joe Biden's involvement in his family's global influence-peddling racket — we were censored by Big Tech and falsely accused by 51 former intelligence officials of peddling "Russian disinformation."

  21. Not working as they envisioned, is it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Biden's Numbers Go Down After NYC Show Trial Guilty Verdict [...] New polling numbers from Morning Consult indicate support for Biden has dropped by two points since the Manhattan jury handed down a guilty verdict. Trump's polling numbers were unaffected, with support holding steady at 44 percent support since the beginning of May.

  22. Thrilling Wednesday report, see man: Bad weather was forecast for mid- or late morning, girlw man. It struck mid-morning, wind and monsoon man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. had already set out for her office, empresaria ex-she man man. Ex-she man called/texted us Many00 times to ask if we would take Mini-B. to our casa, si man. Ex-she man was quite aysheep with worry about the weather, si man. We therefore agreed, si man. Mini-B. hadn't showered yet, no man. We waited, then went into the monsoon in the T-B.-mobile, si man. We were sitting in ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s driveway when ex-she man called/texted again, si man. "I'm turning around and coming back, si man," said ex-she man to we man man. We used this seemingly fruitless trip to continue to BK, si man. Lunch was BK drive-through WUOC, ingest financially savvy we man. After this (at noon), a siesta was taken, zzz we man. When we awoke, the sun was out, bye monsoon man. We ran a couple of errands, si man. Soon thereafter, we retrieved Mini-B. for Two Guys eve, Two Guys man. We went to Subway, sick of BK already we man. Mini-B. stayed in the T-B.-mobile while I went in to order, si man. We saw the young Cubana workerette in there, si man. We decided to practice our Spanish with her, si man. We did rather well but for forgetting the word for "pickles," man. The other workerette (bilingual) had been eavesdropping and said, "You're getting there, si man," si man. We said, "Our head hurts from all this Spanish, ouch man," si and ouch man. Din-din was obviously Subway*, ingest Two Guys man. *WUOC, financially savvy we man Movie night included Many episodes of Everyone Hates Chris, watch Two Guys man. Many (2+2) bowls of Costco popcorn were consumed, ingest Two Guys man. Miu, who has been beastly bored all week, zzz'd through Mini-B.'s visit, miu man. Of course, when we returned alone, miu re-demanded attention, man. Party with the rubias later, cavort we man. Have begun compiling this weekend's GS/ES itinerary, prepared we man.
