I like iced drinks. I did a test.

One method — Take tray out of freezer, empty the cubes, fill with room temperature water, place back in freezer... Ice cubes will stick.

Other way — Let the emptied tray assume room temperature first, then fill with water and place in freezer... Ice cubes don’t stick!

I believe the DOJ has opened an investigation of Schmucky Schumer’s threat to the Justices.

“The base of the trees also took the brunt of a Cessna airplane crash which targeted the White House in September 1994 and were subject to significant branch removal and pruning in December 2017.”

I would definitely trust the opinion of the park service arborists on this removal. Washington D.C. experiences high winds in storms, and big old trees falling down is common. It’s an iconic and beautiful tree, but trees don’t last forever and the safety hazard is real. It could damage the White House or even kill someone when it falls.

I attended a party near D.C. at an old house dating from the 1700s that was surrounded by very large trees. A thunderstorm came barreling in and one of the trees fell down about 20 feet from where my car was parked. It could have crushed the whole vehicle. You could see that the tree had rotted inside.

Then in the parking lot where I worked a large branch broke off of an old tree and totally crushed the cab of a pickup truck (luckily unoccupied). I wonder how many people are killed by falling trees every year.

Community leaders will be presenting a list of demands to the city of Allentown at the rally at City Hall, 435 W. Hamilton St., a press release said.

The group says that the targeted employee is part of an open Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) case with other city employees against the city and previously reported workplace discrimination and sought mediation.

Per the release: “The noose incident is not an isolated event but part of a broader pattern of leadership’s inaction and obstruction.”
