Ah, dude, it ain't the crime, it's the coverup that gets you in deep doo-doo.
The Oregonian reports that Shoureshi deleted more than a thousand pages of emails in late January and early February, even though the newspaper “had been filing public records requests for Shoureshi’s communications.”
He’s been under pressure from the board of trustees since October, when it told him to either resign or undergo “executive coaching as part of a broader improvement program.” That’s why the newspaper started filing requests.
"A bill aiming to ban the sale of energy drinks to minors passed a subcommittee of South Carolina lawmakers last week. According to WCNC, the bill, filed by Rep. Leon Howard (D-Richland) and Rep. Chip Huggins (R-Lexington), is supported by parents Sean and Heidi Cripe. The Cripes' 16-year-old son, Davis, died in 2017 from heart problems caused by drinking too much caffeine."
Oh, for Cripe's sake.
"The bill would make it unlawful for a person to sell, furnish, give or distribute an energy drink to a minor under the age of 18. Anyone who violates this would be fined at least $50."

Yes Kevin we must protect our children from those terrifying energy drinks. Why, I was just walking down the road the other day and one jumped out of a bush and shoved itself down my throat. I tried to call for help but could only gurgle in pain...
That's enough of that. It looks like Howard and Huggins need to go. Not my politicians so unfortunately I can't vote them out. I'll just have to hope the voters in South Carolina are sane and informed.
...too much caffeine. ~ Kevin at April 30, 2019 10:53 AM
If we're going to protect minors from the dangers of caffeine by banning the sale of it to them, will we be making coffee an "adult beverage?"
Will we find minors hanging around outside of our local Starbucks, paying hobos to buy coffee for them?
Or is it only those fizzy caffeine-laden beverages that must be regulated to "protect the children?" Is it only ces autres beverages that must be regulated; those new-fangled things older adults don't normally drink?
Like vaping, any new vice must be severely restrained, lest someone enjoy themselves just a little too much. But don't take away their coffee, cigarettes, and alcohol. Damned kids. And stay off my lawn!

In a California prison for one murder, beheads his cellmate.
He is very woke. I think he's had too many woke energy drinks.
A Trinity College professor is in hot water after tweeting “whiteness is terrorism."
Professor of Sociology Johnny Eric Williams followed that tweet with another saying, “all self-identified white people (no exceptions) are invested in and collude with systematic white racism/white supremacy.”
“Everyone really questions, even liberals, why is he still here? I think that’s kind of a question a lot of people are asking is, he advocated for white genocide, why is he still here?”
The professor has since made his account private but the tweets can be seen on The Hartford Courant.
Or is it only those fizzy caffeine-laden beverages that must be regulated to "protect the children?"
Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper hardest hit. Oh. Right. Lobbyists made sure they didn't make the bill.

Shooting at the University of North Carolina - Charlotte tonight. 2 dead, 4 wounded is the report so far. Local news station is reporting that the two dead are white males - not sure why that detail is important to report. Shooter is in custody.

So, coffee and tea will be restricted as well?
