Scott Presler doth protest too much, methinks. I talked to @thebulwark.com about the legality of out-of-state activists claiming his Beaver County PA "home" as a temporary residence for voting here in the 2024 presidential election. TL;DR: I don't think it's legal!

I can understand all the reasons why, financially and otherwise it makes no sense for Villanova to play off-campus games against schools they get no credit for defeating. But they haven't wanted to be in the Big Five since Rollie starting moving games from the Palestra to Future Murderer Pavillion.

While the Phila Big 5 has been functionally dead for years, and the NIL era really has rendered 4/5 of the schools nationally (and seemingly permanently) irrelevant, I can nonetheless be sad and angry that Villanova has pulled the plug today. Redditors said it best: www.reddit.com/r/philadelph...

A FLAWLESS tv show. The show is as good as always, and their chemistry remains the best. Thank goodness with everything that has degraded on ESPN they've left Mike and Tony alone. (It continues to stun me that we haven't gotten a PTI-format daily show for politics or pop culture news and insight.)

Yet again, they are cosplaying the Nixon admin's response to 1973's inflation crisis brought on by higher fuel costs, when HIS consumer affairs advisor insisted that families could save money on beef by turning cheaper organ meats like liver, kidney, brain, and heart into gourmet, nutritious meals.

RFK Jr. suggests Americans can more easily afford groceries if they start eating liver instead of beef: "Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. You can buy liver or the cheap cuts."

Some very interesting stuff here. It's clear that the academy's issues are profound and not easily solved.

Decades of financial mismanagement. Leadership that never seemed to truly understand the museum and its audience. A study that—shockingly—recommended ripping out all the dinosaur exhibits. Kyle Bagenstose delivers the story that I've been waiting to read about the Academy of Natural Sciences.

Interesting: AIPAC has responded to the problem of its support being toxic to candidates by ending formal endorsements and direct PAC support of candidates, and will be shifting its efforts to (a) having supporters donate directly to candidates and (b) SuperPAC support.

There's one big reason not listed in this article as to why mail-in voting in PA is lower than in 2022 or 2044: who's on the ballot. There is no Presidential race this year. There is no U.S. Senate race as in 2022. Our Gov race does not seem that close. So of course these numbers are lower.

So far, Democratic mail ballot requests are down from both 2022 and 2024, but there could be several reasons for that.

Fascinated that NBC is *not* flexing PHI @ WAS off Sunday Night Football in a few weeks in favor of an apparently-available CLE @ PIT game, and I have to wonder whether they would have made that swap if the Browns had *anyone* else as their quarterback.
