In 1970 (Cold War), the first in the U.S. fully enclosed colligate sports arena opened; the ASISU (Associated Students of Idaho State University) Minidome. In 1988 (Cold War), the name was changed to Holt Arena to honor the athletic director who pushed for the creation of the Minidome. In January 2024 the name was changed, again, to ICCU (Idaho Central Credit Union) Dome, due to the arena’s recent refreshment being funded mostly by the financial institution.
It has been more than a decade since I hiked up the City Creek Trails in Pocatello, Idaho. I had gotten out of shape and gained a lot of weight, but I’ve recently lost some weight and felt like getting back on the trails. Unfortunately I discovered that my favorite part of the trail is now permanently closed to allow for ‘natural restoration’:
Finally, the final (late) Christmas car gift build, for 2023, is done! And it is a fine example of why, back-in-the-day, some kit builders did not like AMT.

On 22MAR2024, my middle daughter Aryssa, along with my dog Struppi (and I) took a hike through the thawing Cherry Springs Nature Area, in Southeastern Idaho.
There was a heavy-wet snow storm a few weeks prior, causing power poles and trees across the region to snap, the South Trail was littered with downed branches and trees:
I went through U.S. Army basic training in 1982 (Fort ‘Lost-in-the-Woods’, Missouri), and at the end of a rough day the Drill Sergeants would yell “Attitude check!”, and we would always respond “Fuck it!”. In many ways those were better days than today.

“This is a flagrant violation of international law and the sovereignty of Mexico…”-Andrés Manuel López Obrador (aka AMLO), President of Mexico
On the evening of 05APR2024, Ecuador conducted a police raid of Mexico’s embassy, in violation of international law! Mexico says it is now ending diplomatic relations with Ecuador.
Ecuadorian police raided Mexico’s embassy because former Ecuadorian vice-president Jorge Glas had been taking refuge in the embassy since December 2023: “I am very worried because they could kill him. There is no basis to do this, this is totally outside the norm!”-Roberto M. Canseco, Mexican Chancellery & Political Affairs
“Me acaba de informar Alicia Bárcena, nuestra secretaria de Relaciones Exteriores que policías de Ecuador entraron por la fuerza a nuestra embajada y se llevaron detenido al exvicepresidente de ese país quien se encontraba refugiado y tramitando asilo por la persecución y el acoso que enfrenta. Se trata de una violación flagrante al derecho internacional y a la soberanía de México, por lo cual le he instruido a nuestra canciller que emita un comunicado sobre este hecho autoritario, proceda de manera legal y de inmediato declare la suspensión de relaciones diplomáticas con el gobierno de Ecuador.”–Andrés Manuel López Obrador (aka AMLO), President of Mexico
Resolution A/HRC/55/L.30 also denounces the use of artificial intelligence (A-I) in combat as it might be a cause of international human rights crimes.
But the UNHRC is a paper tiger, any resolution adopted by the UNHRC has no legal standing.
28 UNHRC countries voted in favor, six against (including the United States), and 13 abstentions.
02APR2024 White House presser, Admiral (retired) John Kirby gets frustrated with the barrage of questions concerning Israel’s attack on the Iranian embassy in Syria, supposed U.S. aid for Gazans, but especially about the execution of World Central Kitchen workers by Israel. I did edit this presser to show only those questions concerning the above mentioned.
Re-education? Soviet style? Chinese Communist style? Corporate Capitalist style? It’s getting so you can’t tell a commie pinko from a blue blood capitalist!
