    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

          Surprised to see Utah higher than surrounding states. Who in the NBA was born in Utah? I can't think of any...

              Whoa.. I had no idea he was born in Ogden. Hilarious.


              I just checked. There seems to be 1 current NBA player born in Utah. Who can name him?

                My best guess would be CJ Wilcox because he played at PG. No idea if he was born here, however.

                  You are correct. Born and raised in PG.

                          The *basic* story of all these GIFs is this: Human infrastructure is causing environmental problems. Levees done messed it all up by blocking bayous that feed the delta sediment, and then oil companies' shipping channels and drilling finished the job.

                          Hmm... I thought levees were a good thing. Well, it seems another Katrina might fix this problem:

                          Five myths about Hurricane Katrina

                          [...]
                          4. New Orleans’s levees are fixed and could withstand another Katrina.


                          After Katrina, Washington committed $14.5 billion to flood-protection improvements that are supposed to survive a 100-year storm — a term of art that refers to storms that have a 1 percent chance of striking in any given year.

                          But here’s the problem: By the Army Corps’ own accounting, Katrina was not a 100-year storm but an even stronger 400-year storm. And it only sideswiped New Orleans. In other words, the Crescent City still lacks a flood defense remotely strong enough to withstand a direct hit by the really big storms — Katrina-size or even larger — that the gulf can whip up.


                          Apparently $14.5b doesn't buy much these days.
