We started with a nice walk along a lake. As usualy I didn't expect a lot but was eager to…

A United States Army veteran who was forced to self-deport to South Korea has told Newsweek he will only return once President Donald Trump leaves office.
Purple Heart veteran Sae Joon Park, who has lived in the U.S. for 48 years, was told by immigration authorities that he had three weeks to leave the country.
"President Trump sucks. I will try to come back after Trump leaves," Park told Newsweek in a statement.

Many lives stolen - never forgotten. We still grieve. We still love.
My best friend and her family were on that plane. She was 11.

Nucleation and propagation of fracture in viscoelastic elastomers: A complete phase-field theory
This paper presents a macroscopic theory, alongside its numerical implementation, aimed at describing, explaining, and predicting the nucleation and propagation of fracture in viscoelastic materials subjected to quasistatic loading conditions. The focus is on polymers, in particular, on elastomers. To this end, the starting point of this work is devoted to summarizing the large body of experimental results on how elastomers deform, nucleate cracks, and propagate cracks when subjected to mechani…

Four years after Gov. Greg Abbott announced Texas would be the first state to build its own border wall, lawmakers have quietly stopped funding the project, leaving only scattered segments covering a small fraction of the border.
That decision, made in the waning hours of this year’s legislative session,
leaves the future of the state wall unclear.
Just 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to dat…

With only 8% built, Texas quietly defunds state border wall program
