The Sharon AI backer.

But other smaller stocks that Situational Awareness has backed have fallen further, such as “neocloud” groups Nebius and Sharon AI, power start-up Bloom Energy and an array of memory companies including Sandisk.

In fact, the very term “prayer closet” comes from the King James Version translation of this passage.

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Yeah, in simple terms the IRA became law (Aug. 22) right as inflation was cresting, and then inflation dropped dramatically after that (although not because of IRA).

This part sounds like a disaster (or lawsuit) waiting to happen.

It’s also unclear if or how the state or federal governments would check for compliance with the federal guidance. Schools and colleges typically don’t track students’ immigration status, though some community colleges in other states have wrestled with whether to do so in response to the federal government’s stance. Notably, an instructor at Johnson County Community College in Kansas quit last year after the college asked students to prove their immigration status to enroll in adult education programs.

“The Iowa Department of Education does not require the reporting of immigration status,” Doe said.

The memo, however, told school districts that they “should be prepared to demonstrate that ineligible students are not being served using Perkins funds during U.S. Department of Education routine monitoring, audits, or compliance visits.”

This is fascinating. Also, one interesting takeaway that is either damning of or a wake-up call to social media Catholicism is this cluster is the most frequent set of reasons for joining, but someone might not even know this is what Catholicism is about if your exposure was through social media.

It’s funny how unself-aware they are about the implications of saying stuff like this. So he’s just riffing?

Asked for comment on the contents of the president's address, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said: "As usual, anonymous sources are speculating about what President Trump will say during his speech on Thursday evening. The truth is, nobody knows yet what President Trump will ultimately say, which is why everyone should tune in."

Amazing that these Serbian nationals managed to hack into those exact election systems! I wonder if it will somehow be based on this:

That looks like it is modeled after wayside crosses, which are common in Germany and Switzerland.

I’ve never heard of this show, but apparently McGowan’s character loses his virginity in the first episode.

Actually this is COVID related, and attendance has been going back up since 2021.

I pointed out this paradox 11 years ago! politicaltheology.com/the-paradoxe...

This puts a revived integralism in a likely insuperable position. Apart from the practical difficulties of bringing their ideals to fruition without hierarchical support, contemporary integralists face the problem of advocating for a maximal stance toward papal and hierarchical authority at a time when they are in tension with, if not outright opposition to, the pastoral and theological lines of that very authority.

Pope Leo's not as fond of universalism as Pope Francis, I take it.

With 94.5% of the vote counted, the election results in Peru between socialist Roberto Sanchez and right-wing Keiko Fujimori are almost identical to the final results in the 2021 election between Fujimori and Pedro Castillo (who was later impeached and removed from office).

This is definitely the best part.

He went on to say the co-founder of Kalshi, Luana Lopes Lara, is "a fellow Brazilian" whom he personally knows. He said he would call her to get to the bottom of whether an investigation had been launched.

The person familiar with Kalshi's investigation said Santos, the son of Brazilian immigrants, does not know Lara, a Brazilian-American.

No, George Washington was a Greek god, otherwise why did they make this statue?

A picture of a statue of George Washington wearing a wig and a toga, with a bare chest. He looks straight ahead, his right hand is pointing up, and in his right hand he holds a sword with the hilt facing away from him. He is wearing sandals and is seated on a throne.

My favorite part is he slips in that he told Claude what to say.

After Claude produced a list, I prompted it to add other items, which I had noticed.

That’s funny that it’s designed to look like the old Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought.

I know he probably didn’t have this specifically in mind, but this is an interesting contrast with the idea of the “Seven Mountain Mandate” here in the US.

“What matters most is not occupying positions of power or defending cultural strongholds, but initiating good processes and enabling them to mature. In this way, the truth of the Gospel is not imposed from above, but grows over time within the concrete interweaving of lives, communities and cultures.” - Pope Leo, Magnifica Humanitas #25

That might apply for either Mike Richards.

Beginning in 2013, Richards hosted a podcast, The Randumb Show, which was promoted as a look at the production of The Price is Right. The Ringer reported that Richards, "repeatedly used offensive language and disparaged women's bodies".[5] In 2021, the Anti-Defamation League criticized his disparaging stereotyping of women, Jews, Asians, and the disabled on the podcast and called for an investigation,[12] after which Richards apologized for the material and took the podcast offline.[5][13]

I don’t know why this would stave off the judge’s concerns: the parties to the settlement are the same as before, and the settlement benefits Trump’s political allies.
