#1 UGA @ Kentucky Weather (Updated Thursday)

145735_key_messages_sm.png

Francine is continuing to weaken, and I still feel confident about little to no rain for the game Saturday night. In fact, the latest trends are going with a partly cloudy sky at times on Saturday afternoon, which would mean warmer tailgating weather (temps in the 80s). By kickoff, the temps should be falling through the 70s. Little to no wind. Very low chance of rain. Very high chance of too many tuddy's for the Dawgs.

Initial Forecast:
I've received a few messages and tags about this weekend's forecast, so I figured I would just make a post for anyone who may be interested. As always, feel free to send me a message about weather whenever you would like, and I will do my best to get back with you.

Tropical Storm Francine developed in the western Gulf of Mexico on Monday. That system is likely to become a strong Category 1 or Category 2 hurricane prior to landfall in Louisiana on Wednesday evening. As it tracks north through the Middle Mississippi Valley, it will likely bring rain into Kentucky this weekend. The forecast is highly variable at this point, but I do not expect significant impacts for the game. Francine will be a very weak system by the time we reach the weekend. The remnant moisture could spark scattered showers and storms, but wind will not be an issue.

At this time, the forecast model trends place the bulk of the rain to the southwest of Lexington on Saturday evening. I trust that output, and that would be my forecast for now. Overcast with temps in the mid-to-upper 70s during the afternoon, and falling into the upper-60s by the end of the game. Just to re-emphasize, today is Monday and the game is Saturday night... A lot will change between now and then, but I do not believe the App forecasts of "likely rain" are accurate.

Only other thing I will add to the forecast is that Vandy will have 3x more wins than Florida by the end of Saturday night. These are the good ole days.

Draft for war

@Moosefish I know you are 100% in the corner of there not being a draft but this dude raises some decent points. He's a green beret which doesn't make his opinions any more credible than any other ex-military, but still something.

He's usually pretty reasonable and well-thought of in his videos. I don't think our military could fight a world war with the current undermanned military something does need to change

"25 Lies KAMALA….

Harris Told In Her Debate Against Trump":​

1. ‘Middle-Class Kid’​

Harris claimed that she grew up a “middle-class kid.” That is not true. As previously noted by journalist Megyn Kelly, Harris’ father was a professor at Stanford University, while her mother was a biomedical scientist at UC Berkley.

2. Trump’s Tax Cuts​

Harris falsely insinuated that the 2017 tax cuts approved by the Trump administration disproportionately benefited America’s billionaires and corporations.

That is not true. Data produced by the IRS has shown that “on average all income brackets benefited substantially from the Republicans’ tax reform law, with the biggest beneficiaries being working and middle-income filers, not the top 1 percent,” according to Justin Haskins, writing in The Hill.

3. Trump ‘Sales Tax’​

Harris claimed Trump will implement a “sales tax.” Trump has not pledged to do such a thing if elected president.


4. Jan. 6​

Harris contended that the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol was the “worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”

Contrary to Harris’ claim, the J6 events did not put American self-governance in jeopardy, nor did it expose Americans to risks like those experienced during World War I, the Japanese attacks on Pearl Harbor, or World War II, to name a few.

5. Project 2025​

Harris claimed Trump will implement Project 2025 if elected. Trump has repeatedly said he has nothing to do with Project 2025.

6. Just Restoring Roe

When asked whether she supports any restrictions on abortion, Harris dodged the question, instead claiming that she “absolutely support reinstating the protections of Roe v Wade.

Moments before that, however, Harris pledged to sign legislation such as the ill-named “Women’s Health Protection Act,” which would codify abortion through all nine months of pregnancy. In addition to her history of co-sponsoring the original version of that legislation, Harris also voted against protections for babies born alive after botched abortions.



7. Pro-Life Laws Criminalize Miscarriages, Ectopic Pregnancies

Harris claimed that several states have “Trump abortion bans” that “make it criminal for a doctor or nurse to provide health care,” threaten women with prison time, and “make no exception, even for rape or incest.”

The lifesaving laws designed to protect thousands of innocents every year from elective abortions, however, do not criminalize treatments for spontaneous loss or complications. In fact, every single pro-life policy on the books includes exceptions for abortion when it is deemed necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman.



8. Trump’s Abortion Stance

Trump, Harris told Americans on Tuesday night, will sign a national abortion ban and hire a national “abortion … monitor that would be monitoring your pregnancies, your miscarriages” if he is elected

The Republican’s 2024 abortion platform, however, explicitly states decisions about ending life in the womb should be left “up to the states” and mentions nothing about crowning a national pro-life coordinator. The GOP presidential nominee has also sworn multiple times that he would not sign federal legislation curbing abortion.



9. Ninth Month Abortions Don’t Exist

Harris also used her time on the debate stage to assert that “nowhere in America is a woman carrying a pregnancy to term and asking for an abortion.”

“That is not happening. It’s insulting to the women of America,” Harris claimed.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, however, shows that thousands of abortions are performed after 21 weeks gestation. The CDC’s findings do not include reporting from at least four abortion-friendly states (California, Maryland, New Hampshire, and New Jersey), which suggests the number of late-term abortions in the U.S. is likely much higher.



10. Border Bill

Harris claimed a congressional border bill proposed earlier this year would have stemmed illegal immigration and fentanyl at the U.S. southern border.

That statement is categorically false. The bipartisan measure would have enshrined the existing invasion into federal law.



11. SCOTUS Immunity Ruling

Harris mischaracterized the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity, claiming the decision would mean that Trump “would essentially be immune from any misconduct if he were to enter the White House again.”

The vice president’s claim is misleading at best. While a majority of justices determined that a U.S. president possesses “absolute immunity” for “actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority” and “at least presumptive immunity” for “official acts,” they separately noted that “[t]here is no immunity for unofficial acts.”

The justices further remanded the Biden-Harris Justice Department’s get-Trump lawfare back to the lower courts to determine whether the actions alleged by Special Counsel Jack Smith constitute “official acts.”



12. Fracking Ban

Kamala Harris claimed she made herself “very clear in 2020.”

“I will not ban fracking,” she said.

But her position was clearly against fracking as she ran for her party’s 2020 presidential nomination when she said, “There is no question I’m in favor of banning fracking.”




13. Minnesota Rioters Bail Fund

Harris seemingly denied that she undertook efforts to bail out left-wing rioters following the 2020 death of George Floyd.

“She went out in Minnesota and wanted to let criminals that killed people, that burned down Minneapolis — she went out and raised money to get them out of jail,” Trump said, as Harris shook her head.

As The Federalist’s Jordan Boyd previously noted, “Accused rapists, repeat offenders, and rioters alike benefitted in June 2020 when Harris encouraged her social media followers to donate to a bail fund dedicated to those arrested for their months-long, $2 billion siege of cities like Minneapolis.”



14. Trump’s Role in J6

Harris claimed that Trump “incited” the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.


That is false. Trump specifically told protestors to “peacefully and patriotically make [their] voices heard” and sought to deploy 10,000 National Guard troops to the Capitol ahead of Congress’s certification of the 2020 election results.



15. J6 Deaths

Harris claimed that “some” police officers died as a result of the demonstrations at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

That is false. For example, medical examiners determined that Officer Brian Sicknick died of natural causes — not from the violence perpetrated on Jan. 6.



16. ‘Fine People’ Hoax

Harris repeated the debunked lie that Trump praised white supremacists marching in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 when he said there were “fine people on both sides.”

This is false, as Trump was referring to both sides of the debate on whether to allow historic monuments to remain standing.



17. ‘Bloodbath’ Hoax

Harris regurgitated the false narrative that Trump claimed there would be a “bloodbath” if he loses this November.

The vice president took Trump out of context. The 45th president was not calling for violence but was discussing the economic disaster that awaits Americans if Democrats win the election.



18. Trump’s NATO Comments

Harris distorted the former president’s remarks by claiming he told Russia it could “do whatever the hell [it] wants” regarding Ukraine.

Harris took the former president out of context. Trump’s remarks came during a South Carolina rally, during which he recounted a story from when he was president and speaking with a NATO member. Trump purportedly indicated that he would withhold U.S. support if the member didn’t pay its minimum defense spending obligations.

“‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’” Trump recalled telling the unidentified NATO member. “‘No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills.’”



19. Autocrats’ Preferences for President

Harris claimed that the world’s autocratic leaders are pulling for Trump to win. While there is no definitive way for Harris to know this for most leaders, Russian President Vladimir Putin did publicly throw his support behind Harris’ presidential bid last week.


20. Combat Zones

Harris claimed that “there is not one member of the United States military who is in active duty in a combat zone in any war zone around the world [for] the first time this century.”

That isn’t true. As noted by former U.S. Rep. Peter Meijer, R-Mich., the United States has “troops in Syria and Iraq who are routinely attacked by Iran-backed militias.”

“Three soldiers were killed in Jordan earlier this year!” he wrote on X.



21. Blaming Trump for Biden’s Botched Afghanistan Withdrawal

Harris attempted to pin the Biden-Harris administration’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal, which got 13 U.S.service members killed, on Trump.

“Donald Trump, when he was president, negotiated one of the weakest deals you can imagine,” Harris claimed.

That isn’t true. According to a report recently released by Republicans on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, “The evidence proves President Biden’s decision to withdraw all U.S. troops was not based on the security situation, the Doha Agreement, or the advice of his senior national security advisors or our allies. Rather, it was premised on his longstanding and unyielding opinion that the United States should no longer be in Afghanistan.”



22. Gun Confiscation

Harris claimed that she doesn’t support mandatory gun confiscation.

That is false. She has openly expressed support for such a policy.



23. Trump’s Foreign Policy Record

Harris claimed, “Donald Trump is weak and wrong on national security and foreign policy.”

That is false. Under Trump’s administration the U.S. southern border was secure, and America facilitated multiple peace agreements between Israel and Arab states. Under the Biden-Harris administration, Russia invaded Ukraine, Iran-backed Hamas launched a terrorist attack on Israel, and China has ramped up its threats toward Taiwan, the Philippines, and Japan.



24. Defunding the Police

Harris shook her head and claimed, “That’s not true,” when confronted by Trump over her past support for defunding the police.

As noted by ABC News, however, Harris previously expressed support for “reimagin[ing]” policing and “redirect[ing] resources” from police toward what the outlet described as “other areas of government [such as] schools and small businesses.”



25. IVF

In an attempt to link Democrats’ abortion goals with in vitro fertilization, Harris claimed that “under Donald Trump’s abortion bans … couples who pray and dream of having a family are being denied IVF treatments.”

Trump, however, has openly touted IVF and even promised that he would make taxpayers fund it.

Sorta ND. Have a question for you puter gubaroos on a problem I'm having with Windows that's particularly bad on this site and a few other like Amazon

When I click somewhere on the site such as a thread or on Amazon on Orders for example it opens another tab and redirects me there. I have googled to find a fix and I can't seem to find a solution. This is starting to drive me nuts. Anybody know a fix or have a similar issue?

Question for staff on 2023 SECCG

When the 4th and 4 "dropped" pass was called complete, it appears the play was not reviewed when clearly it should have been. Did anyone on the referee crew receive any type of reprimand/punishment? Personally, I think the replay official should have been removed. To me, that was beyond a miss or a mistake. It was more like negligence and corruption to me.
