This makes me very happy...
New york Post - Oberlin College has forked over the $36 million owed to a local bakery after the progressive Ohio school falsely accused the family-operated business of being racist.
The substantial payout was awarded earlier this year after Gibson’s Bakery won a defamation lawsuit against the school that sided with three black students who claimed the store racially profiled them when they were caught stealing from the shop in November 2016.
“We can confirm that all funds have been disbursed and that the family is continuing with the process of rebuilding Gibson’s Bakery for the next generations,” Brandon McHugh, the Gibson family’s attorney, told 3News on Thursday.
“It’s definitely about right and wrong. And to be quite frank, the three students that shoplifted, they admitted their crimes,” adds McHugh. “It was Oberlin College that could never admit that what they did was wrong.”
The 137-year-old bakery plans to use the money to rebuild the store, which lost a considerable amount of business after the racism accusations and Covid-19 pandemic hit concurrently.
Gibson’s Bakery filed the defamation suit against Oberlin College in 2017, a year after the shoplifting incident where one of the students used a fake ID to try to buy a bottle of wine, while swiping two more bottles, court papers said.
Gibson’s son, Allyn, chased the trio - Jonathan Aladin, Endia Lawrence and Cecelia Whettstone - out of the store, where a scuffle ensued. When police arrived, the students alleged Allyn racially profiled and assaulted them.

I read a short article about the second amendment last night that - for me - put an interesting slant on the issue. The author's premise was that the amendment was put there not to guarantee our individual right to own a gun.
His take is that the amendment was put in place to stop the government from infringing on our right to own a weapon. It has nothing to do with the weapon itself, it simply limits the actions the government can take on you for owning one. See how that turns the whole thing on it's head and still makes sense?

DailyMail.com - Elon Musk has vowed to step down as head of the social media giant if his followers vote for him to be sacked - and the odds are not currently in his favor. As it currently stands, the majority of Twitter users want the billionaire to hand in his resignation as head of the company - with over 13 million people already voting in the poll. 'Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll,' the Chief Twit posted just before 6.30pm on Sunday evening. With just four hours of voting left, 56.6 percent of users say that they want the CEO gone. The poll is edging towards his defeat, despite the billionaire tweeting: 'As the saying goes, be careful what you wish, as you might get it.' At 2am Eastern Standard Time, just 43.4 percent of voters said they wanted Elon to continue in his position at the tech giant. In response to Musk's poll, rapping legend Snoop Dogg threw his hat in the ring and posted his own - titled 'Should I run Twitter?' Despite only being up for five hours, 83.4 percent of his 471,726 voters said yes.

"Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride."

The incoming artic front brings 'extreme and prolonged freezing conditions for southern Mississippi and southeast Louisiana,' the National Weather Service in a special weather statement Sunday. By Thursday night, temperatures will plunge as low as 13 degrees in Jackson, Mississippi; and around 5 degrees in Nashville, Tennessee, the National Weather Service predicts. For much of the U.S., the winter weather will get worse before it gets better. The coming week has the potential for 'the coldest air of the season' as the strong artic front marches across the eastern two-thirds of the country in the days before Christmas, according to the latest forecasts from the federal Weather Prediction Center. The National Weather Service is predicting a 'major snowstorm' from the southwest and midwest to the eastern seaboard on next weekend, as Christmas arrives on Sunday.
