Frente!? I am just about to settle on that. Bizarre Love Triangle is my current favorite song and the Bernard Sumner acoustic version may turn-out to be the winner, but it–or rather he–has flaws. It all leads to and from Joy Division. But that is not to say it is necessarily a worthwhile destination. Their …

The DNL
65 DNL is the administrative construct the FAA uses as a general indicator of excessive noise. More specifically: “The FAA uses the DNL metric and the 65dB noise threshold to make policy assessments.” (https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/policy_guidance/noise/history/) These things are incredibly complicated at first glance. Once you understand them they are quite simple. In this case, as it …
Lori Daybell II
I would rather go by what they say instead of what they look like. What they said was “send me that book” meaning I can’t find it myself and I won’t read it anyway. “I had the air conditioning fixed.” “I do all the cooking.” “I did yardwork,” and something about how much and how …

Attacked
It was 7:07 in the morning when the attack began. It sounded as though a rocket had been launched in my backyard. Swoosh, boom! Then roar, and finally a long reverberation. It is a pernicious sound that grates on you; it is hard to imagine one worse. Most often, it is a loud or low …
Jes** ******* ***st. I have never seen anything like it. Live on washingtonpost.com Uh oh, what happened to the link? It was the Derek Chauvin verdict.
Ethics complaint
First of all, this is an ethics complaint and not a legal pleading. I learned in business school that an ethics violation is What if it shows up on the front page of a newspaper? How will it hurt our business and, by association, those responsible? This differs from the traditional legal interpretation of an …
