Here, the judge finds that ICE’s decision to secure a contract to retrofit the facility is a determinative action and shows they willfully sidestepped performing an environmental impact statement. Also, the judges considers that ICE did not meaningfully consider input from the community last week.

Judge Hurson acknowledged that ICE has invested considerable resources in acquiring the warehouse, but sided with @oagmaryland.bsky.social that the department did not comply with a proper NEPA review and must do so.

Learning that even motions like lifting my arms to wash my hair is supposed to involve low-level core activation has been mind blowing. One of the main times I've worked my core activation routine into my life is right before showering and it helps my back muscles feel less fatigued afterwards.

In the months immediately after my surgery, my back had a huuuge flare and we discovered that my core muscles basically weren't doing anything since my surgery and so my back muscles had been overconpensating. A year later now and i still have to do my little routine to turn my core muscles on.

Getting my core muscles to turn on is like half of my home pt stuff currently, i always had trouble with it but it's been especially difficult since my gallbladder removal (Nov 2024). I've had to really reckon with the difficulties cause by scar tissue and damaged fascia at the incision sites.

The course met technical specifications when it was tested during the 2023 winter season for Para snowboard. During that event, the start had to be moved halfway down the course due to limited snow and no further events were held despite requests, per FIS. No additional full pre‑Games testing took place, per the governing body.

The Paralympics snowboard cross event has been a disaster. Last minute changes had to be made to the course due to a spate of injuries during training sessions. This detail floored me: www.nytimes.com/athletic/709...

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

Attempted suicides, fights, pain: 911 calls reveal misery at ICE’s largest detention facility The calls to 911 poured in from staff at Camp East Montana, the nation's largest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility, in its first months of operation in El Paso, Texas.

Conditions at ICE's largest detention facility β€” revealed in data from more than a hundred 911 calls, interviews and court filings β€” offer a disturbing portrait of overcrowding, medical neglect, malnutrition and emotional distress.

"At one point [a detainee] said he overheard a security guard talking about bets made among the staff over which detainee would be next to die by suicide. The guard said he had paid $500 into a pool, with the total pot riding on the outcome."

An animation (in black on a rusty orange background) of Sisyphus rolling a large boulder up a steep mountain incline. Text box over Sisyphus says "Me, with hEDS" and text box over the boulder says "Getting specific muscles to turn on when they're supposed to." There is a faint Adobe Stock watermark.
