Lakeland Florida high school offers free clothes and laundry facilities. Expansion of this concept to Saturdays for all students in the district would contribute to greater utilization of square footage that is normally unused. It may also lower energy cost and contribute to “family feeling” in the district.
I was admiring my gran’s sewing machine today. I think it was probably her mother’s. Amazing that a mass-produced tool was made to look like *this*. pic.twitter.com/fiT5NxtzNA

The ISI is a nonprofit organization founded in 1953 by Frank Chodorov and William F. Buckley Jr. to promote conservative and libertarian ideas on American college campuses. ISI educates students through publications (e.g., Modern Age, The Intercollegiate Review), campus lectures, honors programs, and fellowships that emphasize free-market economics, limited government, traditional values, and the Western intellectual tradition.
Independent of political parties, it has influenced generations of conservative leaders, including judges, journalists, and policymakers. Headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware, ISI remains active in countering perceived leftist dominance in higher education

and the taxpayer has been rewarded with the systematic destruction
New ISI chapters and new Collegiate Network publications reflect a growing demand for thoughtful, principled conservatism. Discover the work happening across the ISI community at the link below.https://t.co/F1tmk1741Tpic.twitter.com/XqCn1lSITY
William F. Buckley Jr. and Russell Kirk were the twin pillars of post-war American conservatism, yet with distinct emphases. Kirk, the traditionalist, rooted conservatism in moral order, permanence, prescription, and the “permanent things” of Western civilization—famously outlining it in The Conservative Mind (1953). Buckley, the fusionist, built National Review to unite traditionalists, libertarians, and anti-communists under a practical political banner, emphasizing individual liberty and anti-statism.Though Kirk criticized libertarian excesses and Buckley occasionally chided traditionalist “reaction,” they admired each other deeply. Buckley called Kirk the conservative movement’s “benign patriarch”; Kirk praised Buckley’s role in making conservatism intellectually respectable and politically viable. Their friendship and mutual influence forged the enduring traditionalist-libertarian synthesis of modern American conservatism

Beer was discovered accidentally as a result of grains being left in water and undergoing fermentation. The process of making beer involves converting the starches in grains (such as barley or wheat) into sugars, which are then fermented by yeast to produce alcohol. It was often consumed as a safer alternative to water, which could be contaminated with disease-causing pathogens.
Beer was also used in religious ceremonies and was considered a valuable commodity for trade. Over time, beer-making techniques spread throughout the world, and different regions developed their own unique styles of beer; now supported by artificial intelligence algorithms that analyze chemical compounds to identify specific flavor and aroma profiles for more nuanced flavors.
Abstract: The art of brewing beer has a long tradition that dates back to the very dawn of civilization. While the brewing process has been automated to a great extent, the creation of new beer recipes remains the result of creativity and human expertise with only minor support from software to validate chemical constraints. We collected a dataset of 157,000 publicly available recipes from all over the world and created a transformer-based model to support the creative process in brewing by suggesting new beer recipe templates. As a proof of concept, we crafted the IPA “Deeper” along a recipe generated by our model. Over 100 international newspapers and radio stations have reported on the first AI-crafted beer from Switzerland over the past few months. For the first time, this paper reveals the underlying pipeline architecture of eight transformer networks trained end-to-end that made this remarkable success possible.
