From CNN Business:
New York (CNN Business)Sheldon Adelson, the chairman and CEO of Las Vegas Sands and a major donor to Republican politicians, died late Monday following complications related to his cancer treatment, his company said. He was 87.
Adelson took a leave of absence from Sands last week to resume treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which his aides first disclosed in late February 2019.

Comment →In the wake of the violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by scores of President Trump’s supporters, a lone researcher began an effort to catalogue the posts of social media users across Parler, a platform founded to provide conservative users a safe haven for uninhibited “free speech” — but which ultimately devolved into a hotbed of far-right conspiracy theories, unchecked racism, and death threats aimed at prominent politicians.
The researcher, who asked to be referred to by their Twitter handle, @donk_enby, began with the goal of archiving every post from January 6, the day of the Capitol riot; what she called a bevy of “very incriminating” evidence. According to the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab, among others, Parler is one of a number of apps used by the insurrections to coordinate their breach of the Capitol, in a plan to overturn the 2020 election results and keep Donald Trump in power.

After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.https://t.co/CBpE1I6j8Y

What did the shipyard think?Report
When we brought the first hull in my impression was the guys were thinking “What the hell is this ?”
But when we got the second hull squared up and asked for help setting the akas, suddenly there were three guys who all dropped what they were doing and were eager to help load the (very heavy) akas onto the folklift, and assist with sighting them to drop into place. Then they sort of poked around, running their hands over the curve or rapping the hull with their knuckles and nodding approvingly.Report
When you get done lashing the akas in place could you post some detailed pictures of that please?Report
OT: Is any one else having trouble with Gifts of Gab loading properly?Report
I too am having this problem.Report
