Arthur Grand Technologies Inc, a firm that provides IT services, in March 2023 posted a job ad for a business analyst position on the hiring site Indeed that asked in a bolded note for “Only Born US Citizens [White] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas,” acc/to a DOJ news release. “Don’t share with candidates,” the ad read in brackets.

It's obvious what happened at the University of #Virginia on May 4th. The police were rioting. If the authorities had just left the students alone, the pro-Palestinian encampments would have been dissolved on their own accord. The fact that the police give greater priority to peaceful protests on campuses than they do to investigating and solving real crimes explains why there is so much crime in the cities. https://www.c-ville.com/conflicting-accounts

Cross-examination of resumes, an opportunity for the defense to poke holes in his testimony & perhaps trip up or provoke the state’s key witness. The questioning of Cohen, ’s fmr fixer, is the beginning of the end of Trump’s trial, which began April 15 & might conclude before Memorial Day weekend at this pace.

Almost a dozen #HouseRepublicans showed up at the courthouse on Thurs, including #FarRight trolls Reps #MattGaetz & #AnnaPaulinaLuna of #Florida; #LaurenBoebert of #Colorado; & Rep #BobGood of #Virginia. They said they were there to speak on behalf of #Trump because a #GagOrder has barred him from speaking for himself.

“We are here of our own volition [ok], because there are things we can say that President Trump is unjustly not allowed to say,” #Gaetz said outside the courthouse.

"Bishop’s story, from birth to presumed death, shows the extreme danger facing right #whales, which could be #extinct in three decades if they continue to disappear at the present rate.

Bishop’s species is not doomed to #extinction, advocates say, but time is running out."

"“As we watch this #species go #extinct one by one, the solution sits idle in the hands of the administration”...

this year, a dead female turned up off #Virginia with a dislocated spine, a calf was discovered in #Georgia with head lacerations, & a young female was found — again in Georgia — with a fractured skull. All the injuries are consistent with vessel strikes.

“It’s only #humans that kill right #whales”"

School board members in #Virginia’s Shenandoah County voted early Friday to restore the names of two schools that previously honored Confederate leaders – four years after those names had been removed.

A #Virginia #school board voted to restore the names of 2 schools previously named after #Confederate leaders at a meeting that began Thurs evening & stretched into the early hours of Friday.
The #ShenandoahCounty #SchoolBoard voted 5-1 to call the schools #StonewallJackson HS & #AshbyLee #ElementarySchool, 4 yrs after the board — under different members — changed the names of the institutions due to their ties to Confederate ldrs Stonewall Jackson, #RobertELee & #TurnerAshby.

Virginia school board votes to restore Confederate names to two schools.

CNN reports from Shenandoah County, where the schools were renamed four years ago. "That 2020 move was part of a resolution condemning racism and affirming the district’s 'commitment to an inclusive school environment.'" None of the 2020 board members still serve.

About a month ago, I photo'd a pileated woodpecker for the first time, in Banneker Park a few miles from our home. Today, I saw one of those critters in our backyard. This is the male of the species, noted by the red stripe near the beak.
