Bill Lee, the Tennessee governor, on Friday said he favored a proposal to rename Nashville’s international airport after legendary country singer Dolly Parton, who died three days earlier at age 80.

In a statement, Lee said he and the managers of the airport in Tennessee’s capital city – where Parton resided – wanted to create “a lasting tribute to her indelible legacy and the generations of people she inspired”. He said he had spoken previously to the 11-time Grammy winner and her team, who were “touched by the idea”.

“Dolly Parton’s extraordinary life is forever woven into the fabric of our state,” Lee said, noting that Nashville airport is where Tennessee welcomes the world.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford answered President Donald Trump’s “Lake America” decree Saturday with a billboard-sized message on the Canadian shoreline — “Lake Ontario. Now and Always” — as Canadian leaders met the move with ridicule rather than outrage.

Wearing a Team Canada soccer jersey, Ford unveiled the sign near Grimsby, Ontario, and posed for photographs. The 24-by-12-foot (7.3-by-3.6 meter) sign stands on 6-foot (1.8-meter) legs, putting its top about 18 feet (5.5 meters) above the ground — roughly two stories high. The message is repeated in French, one

The display followed Trump’s executive order directing U.S. federal agencies to call Lake Ontario “Lake America.” After months of tariffs, threats to make Canada the 51st U.S. state and personal attacks on its leaders, the reaction in Canada has mixed defiance with mockery.

The attack occurred when four members of the news team were interviewing Aida Ahmed Abdullah and her family in the Palestinian town of Jalud, near Nablus.

Abdullah told the outlet that they had been driven out of their home by settlers, and the team was walking down a hill toward the house.

A car with Israeli license plates reversed up the hill toward them. At least four men with their faces covered leapt from the vehicle, hitting them with sticks and throwing rocks.

“They jumped out, beat us, then jumped back in the car,” said NBC News correspondent Matt Bradley. Bradley was hit twice in the arm and treated at a nearby clinic.

Hi Everyone!

Around a year ago I created https://crimesofice.org/. This resource is aimed towards documenting and saving proof of ICE committing crimes to raise awareness and also save evidence for future prosecution of ICE agents.

Currently I am the only developer and video searcher/publisher. I am looking for people who want to help find videos and other material to save and archive.

The website has a place to upload that I can give access to so you could upload right away

Let me know if you are interested in helping, thanks!

It was my 2nd Fire Emblem game, i really like the pair up system way better than the Adjutant in three houses that i would sometimes forgot to use, i like the story, i already kinda knew bits of it via cultural osmosis but i still like it very much and also the parts i didnt know about like the Ferox Khan surviving and the fake gem.

Child units were pretty fun, they all have good growths so they became really strong units but i didnt got all the kids only, Lucina, Cynthia, Morgan, Nah, Severa and Noire so only half. Severa was my favorite since she was pretty funny

i like reclassing to pick up good skill for my units in the end the units with max skill slots were robin, the kids and tiki, i kinda tried to get the another kid unit but the units i didnt use were pretty weak so it was hard to get them lvl so i just forgot about them

This was the Peoples Liberation Army of Ylisse (plus Sumia), in the final campaign plus my beautiful dragon daughter that can solo maps

i did a bad play in turn 2 and 4 which killed my healer and then the pagasus paladin pair up, but in the end the Manateke squad was able to beat the grimleal and then Morgan got a double Luna proc vs Grima and i got the final hit with Robin to permanently kill Grima since my wife and daughter were dragon and they would have 100% have to deal with him in 1000 years, i like the ending i think it makes more sense than the chrom last hit ending.

10/10 game i really liked it, i will play FE Fates next since it has similar gameplay

Subsequently to her first imprisonment the witchcraft act was repealed and replaced with a law making it illegal to claim to speak to the dead for the purpose of making money, unless you could actually speak to the dead (Or it was for entertajmment purposes). This law change was spearheaded by a Labour politician named Thomas Brooks who was himself a spiritualist.

This law was then itself repealed and replaced by EU marketing regulations in 2008.

Edit: Incidentally while she was charged under the witchcraft act. The reason she was reported was not for being a medium, but for being a BAD medium. Her performance at seances was so awful, having misidentified two separate ghosts (Actually Duncan herself in a white costume twice) as two female members of the same audience member's family who both happened to be alive, that her audience went to the cops.

Edit 2: Rephrased the previous edit a bunch.

For me it's a couple

First is GTA. I played a LOT of Vice City and and San Andreas as a kid, but mostly because everyone else played them at the time and there wasn't really many games quite like it where you could mess around and explore a massive city and find cool vehicles just by exploring. But by the time GTA 4 rolled around other open world games did things just as good and the edgey humor has starting to wear thin on me so I had moved on to things like Elder Scrolls by that time.

Another is Minecraft. Minecraft is the exact kind of game I should be in to, it looks so fun! But I just found the artstyle so damn ugly. It's so rare for me to avoid something for aesthetic reasons, usually low poly art is charming but for some reason Minecrafts style just looks really unappealing to me. This is coming from someone who likes a lot of games people think are ugly.

Lastly are what I'll call "grizzled white guy action games" Uncharted, Red Dead, The Last of Us. They just feel too much like they're trying to be be a blockbuster for for guys that don't want to be made fun of for liking games rather than games. I know that that probably isn't the case, but they just seem too normal to me.

However I respect that these are all good series but they just aren't for me. Are there any game series where this is true for you?

Don't be afraid to say a series you know I like, I won't be offended.
