Potent nor’easter will slam the East Coast with fierce wind, major coastal flooding and rain this weekend | CNN Millions along the East Coast are about to feel the wrath of the storm this weekend and into early next week.

A nor’easter will hit the East Coast this weekend. Now is the time to prepare. If you own a portable generator, make sure your carbon monoxide (CO) alarms are working. CO from portable generators can kill in minutes. Make sure your flashlights have fresh batteries. www.cnn.com/2025/10/10/w...

Was concerned I might be late for my Acela to DC because my NJ Transit train to New York Penn was running late but it turns out the Acela is also running late so it all worked out I guess

Interestingly, as Bloomberg's response letter points out, Sun's declaration in support of his motion is the same one as from the voluntarily dismissed motion last month. Literally dated Aug. 11.

Hey folks, hoping for some #finreg guidance here -- I thought there was a stay pending appeal in NTEU v Vought. Did the union appeal this case and I just can't find anything about that or is the White House free to reduce CFPB staffing?

They were clearly labled β€˜In loving memory β€” my mom, my best friend…’ and her name. Her ashes were all that I had left of her. No one stored my stuff.

New York Red Bulls GK AJ Marcucci assisted Wiki Carmona on #RBNY’s opening goal.

That was the 11th Goalkeeper assist of the Mondern Era (1995 to now). Marcucci is the 5th MLS GK to have a USOC assist and has the first GK assist since 2017.

The board determined the primary contributing factors were OceanGate’s inadequate design, certification, maintenance and inspection process for the Titan. Other factors cited in the report include a toxic workplace culture at OceanGate, an inadequate domestic and international regulatory framework for submersible operations and vessels of novel design, and an ineffective whistleblower process under the Seaman’s Protection Act.

The board also found OceanGate failed to properly investigate and address known hull anomalies following its 2022 Titanic expedition. Investigators determined the Titan’s real-time monitoring system generated data that should have been analyzed and acted on during the 2022 Titanic expedition. However, OceanGate did not take any action related to the data, conduct any preventative maintenance or properly store the Titan during the extended off season before its 2023 Titanic expedition.

Is there any category of things Oceangate could have done that is not covered in these two paragraphs?

β€˜They control everything’: How the Dallas Stars monopolized Texas youth hockey Ice is power in the lucrative world of youth hockey. In North Texas, the Dallas Stars hold almost all of it.

It's been a while since I've read a story this long, this thoroughly reported, this blunt in laying out its allegations of wrongdoing.

My jaw was on the floor from start to finish.
