Lawmakers are starting to wonder if football is taking too high of a priority By DEANNA B. NARVESON | Staff writer As Louisiana pours millions into making LSU a football juggernaut, some state lawmakers have started to raise concerns that the state is too often putting football ahead of other priorities, reports staff writer Meghan Friedmann The debate comes after a legislative session during which the Louisiana House killed a bill that would have given more money to early childhood education programs; instead, college sports programs will get that money.

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

Does Complex or Simple Rhetoric Win Elections? An Integrative Complexity Analysis of U.S. Presidential Campaigns Lucian Gideon Conway III, Laura Janelle Gornick, Chelsea Burfeind, Paul Mandella, Andrea Kuenzli, Shannon C. Houck, Deven Theresa Fullerton First published: 17 August 2012 https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-9221.2012.00910.xDigital Object Identifier (DOI) view metrics Read the full text PDF CITE Tools Share Abstract Research suggests that the integrative complexity of political rhetoric tends to drop during election season, but little research to date directly addresses if this drop in complexity serves to increase or decrease electoral success. The two present studies help fill this gap. Study 1 demonstrates that, during the Democratic Party primary debates in 2003–2004, the eventual winners of the party nomination showed a steeper drop in integrative complexity as the election season progressed than nonwinning candidates. Study 2 presents laboratory evidence from the most recent presidential campaign demonstrating that, while the complexity of Obama's rhetoric had little impact on college students' subsequent intentions to vote for him, the complexity of McCain's rhetoric was significantly positively correlated with their likelihood of voting for him. Taken together, this research is inconsistent with an unqualified simple is effective view of the complexity-success relationship. Rather, it is more consistent with a compensatory view: Effective use of complexity (or simplicity) may compensate for perceived weaknesses. Thus, appropriately timed shifts in complexity levels, and/or violations of negative expectations relevant to complexity, may be an effective means of winning elections. Surprisingly, mere simplicity as such seems largely ineffective.
“My opponent was running for 13 months and couldn’t get in touch with the president,” Letlow said. “That tells you all you need to know. I can pick up the phone and easily access him because I have his cell number.” While the debate highlighted their differences, Fleming and Letlow agreed on a number of issues. They both said they oppose abortion, mandated vaccines and giving more aid to Ukraine in its war with Russia. In response to a question from Griffon, they both said they would not have voted with Cassidy to convict Trump on impeachment charges of inciting the assault on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. “There was absolutely no reason to believe that Donald Trump was guilty,” Letlow said. “That was the worst mistake that Cassidy could have made. He turned his back on Louisiana voters, and they have never forgotten it.”

"In 2016, at least two floats parodied the “Black Lives Matter” movement with “Pink Lives Matter” slogans, which reference the parade’s pink flamingo mascot. "One float featured a drawing of a flamingo being beaten with a police baton. The flamingo had an “I can’t breathe” sign strung around its neck, mimicking the words of Eric Garner, whose 2014 New York City death at the hands of police officers sparked protests about police brutality."

punishment and child aggression.5 Virtually without exception, these studies found that physical punishment was associated with higher levels of aggression against parents, siblings, peers and spouses.
Johnny Jones, a T.S.A. officer at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and a secretary-treasurer with the American Federation of Government Employees, the union representing nearly 50,000 T.S.A. officers, said that stationing ICE agents at airports would “be a distracting scenario, to say the least.” He said ICE agents’ presence could make airports less safe because of the widespread public anger at immigration officers’ recent conduct. He added that placing paid immigration agents next to unpaid T.S.A. agents would inflame frustrations. “All we want is a paycheck,” Mr. Jones said. “We don’t need all these optics.”
Mike Gayzagian, a T.S.A. officer at Boston Logan International Airport and the president of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 2617, which represents T.S.A. employees across New England, said he was unsure whether ICE agents would show up to airports in his region on Monday. If they did, he said, they were not likely to be of much help, especially if they were stationed at exits as Mr. Homan suggested. Mr. Gayzagian said the administration’s move shifted attention from the larger issue at hand. “None of this would be happening if Congress had just simply decided to pay us,” he said.
