Some people just refuse to go to the hospital.

The city’s automated license plate reader program ended July 1.

Waited weeks for this and was so excited it finally arrived today. Unboxed it, put it on charge, and....nothing. Won't boot up, no signs of life. He's dead, Jim.

Now I have to send it back and wait who knows how long if I want a replacement. Probably just going to ask for a refund; I can't wait another 4-6 weeks or wait for one to ship from the September batch. Ugh!

Mildly infuriating, highly disappointing.

at first it doesn't seem that texas and video games would mix. texans are big strong men who ride horses and never cry. video games are kid stuff. but when you think about it, video games are blasting aliens out of the sky and defending civilization from evil forces. video gamers don't cry. when you die in a video game, you shrug it off with a shake of the reset button. video games and texas go together like meat and potatoes. in the 1980s, instead of roping cattle and having gunfights, texans are gunning down cybertronic-actuated quasi- spheroids.

During the spring of 2003, as missiles rained down on Baghdad, the ultra-right wing of the Cuban exile community took to the streets of Miami with a disturbing slogan: “Iraq now; Cuba later.” The demonstration, held on 8th Street, was not an isolated act or a marginal expression. It represented concrete pressure on the George W. Bush administration to extend its military crusade to the Caribbean island, under the same lies of “liberation,” “terrorism,” and “weapons of mass destruction” that had already been used to launch the invasion of Iraq.

Russian air defenses on July 5 shot down four drones advancing on Moscow, prompting a temporary halt to outgoing flights at Sheremetyevo, one of the capital's main airports. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin reported emergency services at the drone downing sites but provided no immediate details on potential damage.

The Kyiv Independent couldn't immediately verify these claims.

The Russian Defense Ministry said that a total of 94 drones were destroyed over Russia overnight on July 5, with an additional 45 intercepted during the day.

Russia's Rosaviatsia aviation authority confirmed the temporary pause in flights at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport, citing airspace restrictions over the capital and strong winds. Rosaviatsia also noted that flights at other Russian city airports, including St. Petersburg's Pulkovo, were temporarily halted due to safety concerns.

This latest drone attack on Moscow follows an earlier Ukrainian operation targeting the Borisoglebsk airfield in Russia's Voronezh Oblast overnight on July 5.

Ukraine's General Staff reported that the strike damaged a warehouse containing guided bombs, aircraft, and other military assets.

The Borisoglebsk airfield is known to host Su-34, Su-35S, and Su-30SM jets, which Russia regularly employs in air strikes against Ukraine. Military assessments are underway, with initial reports suggesting a training and combat aircraft may have been destroyed.

NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) detected a fire near the Borisoglebsk military airfield shortly after the strike. Residents in the area reported 8–10 powerful explosions around 2 a.m. local time, according to the Russian independent outlet Astra.

The attack on Borisoglebsk was part of a broader overnight drone campaign across Russia, with explosions and fires reported in at least six regions.
