This guy was a patient at the Mayo Clinic, which is a great reminder that people travel from all over the world to visit that hospital because of its reputation.
I can’t imagine the federal occupation of Minnesota is giving Mayo a great international reputation right now.

Be bold, Louvre — put it back on display, unrepaired, on a slow rotating display stand. Talk about theft, pull out the copy of the Cursed Diamond Necklace of Bankruptcy (& Infamy) +5 and talk about the rumors and slander in that one. Jewel theft has been part of jewels forever. Lean into it.
“The museum’s decorative arts director, Olivier Gabet, said the museum staff didn’t know how much the restoration would cost, but were starting with an estimate of 40,000 euros.”

Before entering politics, Speaker Johnson worked for two decades as a Constitutional Law litigator.
You would think he would have been aware of the requirement for a judicial warrant for decades.

I watched a random video on the history of The Dakota Building in NYC, (built w/Singer sewing machine $) then watched a more contemporary one, then watched 'Rosemary's Baby' for the trifecta.
Cannot believe my mother dropped off my preteen posse at the theater to see that one.

This is a page-turner about women who live in a DC boarding house during the McCarthy era.
