Norman Rockwell’s Family Condemns Homeland Security’s Use of His Work - The New York Times Nov 4, 2025
In an opinion essay published Sunday in USA Today, Rockwell’s son and other descendants wrote that the paintings had been used without the family’s authorization and that the artist would be “devastated” to see his work “marshalled for the cause of persecution toward immigrant communities and people of color.”

𝍤 Niall Ferguson, Victor Davis Hanson, and Stephen Kotkin are all senior fellows at the Hoover Institution, and this is the first time they have appeared together in a public discussion. The topic: Is the United States in decline or on the verge of renewal?

Exploring topics including Donald Trump’s second term and the transformation of the Republican Party, relations between China and Taiwan, America’s fiscal crisis, the current state of universities, and the upcoming 250th anniverzsary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this wide-ranging and often passionate conversation dives deep into history, politics, and the fate of Western civilization.

1:14:00 paraphrased "do we have doctors and lawyers from Harvard or do we have MD's and JD's from Trump University" and was repeated

One of the pathogens the team found was a species of Borrelia—a relative of the tick-borne bacteria that cause Lyme disease. It is spread by lice and triggers a debilitating illness known as ‘relapsing fever’ that is now rare in Europe. The other was a strain of Salmonella that causes a condition called paratyphoid fever. Though it has similar symptoms to typhus, like fever, rashes and diarrhea, it is not spread by lice like typhus is. People tend to get infected by it from consuming water and food polluted by fecal matter.

Corporate Governance Risks at Tesla and How I Voted - CorpGov.net: Corporations are not Democratic-Free Zones
Corporate Governance Risks at Tesla and How I Voted - CorpGov.net: Corporations are not Democratic-Free Zones

typo: as if you had voted as theBoardd auditors: Abstain elsewhere you had For (I don't recall Abstain)

Chevedden submitted 256 proposals this proxy season (approximately one-third of all proposals), focusing on removing supermajority voting rules and other corporate governance improvements. His proposal at Tesla seeks to replace supermajority requirements with simple majority votes for major decisions.
Shareholders should sign up for Iconikapp.com and automatically vote their proxies at all companies. Set your “vote forge” to always vote FOR proposals to all for simple majority voting, declassify the board, allow proxy access, separate CEO and board chair, allow shareholders to call special meetings, and require directors in uncontested elections to win a majority vote. These are a few fundamental rights shareholders should have at all public companies.

John Chevedden: Economy-Class Investor Advocate - CorpGov.net: Corporations are not Democratic-Free Zones
John Chevedden is probably the most prolific filer of shareholder proposals in history. His positive influence and impact continue.
John Chevedden, a 67-year-old small-scale shareholder activist, has become one of the most influential figures in U.S. corporate governance. Unlike billionaire activists such as Carl Icahn, Chevedden operates on a shoestring budget, buying minimal shares — often just $2,000 worth — to qualify for filing shareholder proposals.
Chevedden specializes in corporate governance reforms, focusing on issues such as director elections, executive pay accountability, and shareholder rights to call special meetings.
Chevedden and others don’t just add value when our proposals pass. We drive management proposals and adoptions once they become aware of the issues and shareholder sentiment.

Artificial shark skin is a material inspired by the physical structure of shark skin that reduces drag and prevents microbial growth. This biomimetic technology is used in applications such as airplane coatings to improve fuel efficiency and in medical and public spaces to inhibit bacteria. It works by using microscopic riblet-like structures that disrupt fluid flow or prevent bacteria from attaching to the surface.
