I was told it was round on both ends. I feel robbed.

I thought part of it burned off when the river caught on fire and they just left it that way

Who cares?

Through the 80s, the amount of debt owed by the DDR to the West grew rapidly so it was probably quite convenient to find some extra 'criminals' to sell.

Wait til you find out what year they abolished slavery

Wow, mind boggling sums, but I guess East Germany needed about 3,50 .. Billion!

I'm probably wrong, but I believe words like "vitamin" and "supplement" have little legal definition, and so what qualifies as those are extremely lax. It's a similar case with "organic," where you can make a huge amount of claims because there's yet to be a very specific legal definition.

I will always tell anyone who I ever meet that believes a word of Fox News that they successfully argued in court no one is supposed to take them seriously. (And of course more recent discoveries they never believed a word of the election lies, and were one of the first networks to require COVID vaccination).

I know it won't change the opinions of those who still believe Fox is news, but it's the small victories in life.

Interesting spike there during the first 5 years of Reagan's presidency. Of course that's US, but that definitely affected Cold War relations.

As far as I know, most professional leagues (MLB, NFL, NHL) do not actually ban women from being drafted and playing. I don't even know if the NBA disallows it, even though the WNBA is well established.

It doesn't.

If you have ocean access via a navigable river, you have ocean access via a navigable river.

If you do not, you do not.

It is also on the Mississippi, which has been one of the major water routes in world history.

Statues: Columbus and Crockett

They are called "Discovery" and "Rescue." It would seem that Crockett is not "arresting an indigenous man in front of his family," but rather rescuing a white woman and her baby from an indigenous person who has been cast as the murderous heathen. Seems to me even worse -- not just mastering the First People but teaching a fear of them.

Ohio is landlocked by other states but it does have access to Lake Erie which connects to the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence River. However, Ohio was not a major ocean access point for the interior during the colonial era because it was mostly inhabited by Native Americans who resisted European settlement.

There was a war fought over Ohio that indirectly influenced the American Revolution. It was called the French and Indian War (1754-1763) and it involved Britain and France competing for control of North America, including Ohio. The war ended with Britain gaining most of France’s territory east of the Mississippi River but also imposing taxes on its colonies to pay for the war debt. This led to resentment and resistance among colonists who felt they had no representation in Parliament.

The Proclamation of 1763 was one of the acts that angered colonists because it prohibited them from settling west of the Appalachian Mountains, including Ohio. Some colonists defied this order and moved into Ohio anyway, causing conflicts with Native Americans who allied with Britain during the Revolutionary War (1775-1783).

So, Ohio was not a major ocean access point for the interior but it was a contested land between Britain, France and Native Americans that contributed to colonial grievances that sparked the American Revolution.

Wonder if North Korea does anything similar.

Well here's a gold for that account to be jealous of.

Is this like kidnapping your brother to sell back to your mother?

They were behind a paywall.

Well, beneficial to some and detrimental to others. We tend to see wetlands as ecologically important though.
