This should be the end of the Dave Doeren era at NC State. Simply unacceptable after one of the biggest gaffes in CFB history. Wolfpack led throughout. Disastrous.

I’m too shocked, disgusted and angry to really even be commenting at this point, but I will anyway. Andrew was a fan who became a friend. Cam and I just had lunch with him in Forth Worth in June, when he drove from Austin to see my return to the stage after my father’s sudden death in May. Andrew was a rare person: Genuinely kind just for the sake of it; it quite clearly never occurred to him to expect anything in return. I am haunted and horrified thinking of his final moments, and beyond furious that this was the end the world gave him, the same world that he’d always gone out of his way to make a better place. We all love you Andrew, and we always will. Your kindness made you a legend.
NEW DETAILS on the murder and attempted beheading of a man at a Round Rock park. Andrew James Wimsatt sat down on a bench that Monday morning in a plaid blue button-up and shorts. Three minutes later he was dead. A neighbor's camera had already caught Benedict Ogbodiegwu Jr. leaving his house that morning, walking toward the park with something in his left pocket that detectives say looked like a large knife sticking out. He stopped for a drink at the water fountain by the basketball court. Then he found Wimsatt. He came from behind, wrapped his left arm around the man, and started driving the knife into his neck. Wimsatt tried to push him off. He couldn't. He was stabbed several more times before he hit the ground. Then Ogbodiegwu walked around to his left side, knelt down, put his knee on the dying man's chest, and kept going -- sawing the blade back and forth while it was inside his neck. He wiped the blade on his shirt and jogged off toward the pool. Four minutes after he left the park, that same neighbor's camera caught him walking back home, two houses away. That afternoon he turned up at a McDonald's in a different outfit and left as a passenger in a red SUV. The plate traced back to his father's house, nine-tenths of a mile from the bench. When detectives showed him a still from the crime scene video, he admitted it was him. Then said he was never at the park. Then said he has a twin. Asked for his twin's name, he had nothing. Deputies found a trash bag by the garage. Inside: the Honda shirt he was wearing at the murder scene, grey sweatpants with red stains, size 12 Jordans, and a 5.5-inch knife with a wooden handle. The red substance on the blade tested presumptive positive for human blood. The two men had never met. He apparently decided to just stab a stranger. In January, Ogbodiegwu was arrested for theft, which was dismissed. In May, arrested for giving police a fake name - also dismissed. Years earlier, he was arrested for theft. The victim, Andrew Wimsatt, was 62 years old, and an accomplished civil engineer in Texas. He was also an avid nature and wildlife photography enthusiast. Fox News host @greggutfeld called him “supremely gentle. Willing to do just about anything for another person.” Before his murder, Andrew had just returned from visiting his mother a nearby nursing home.

The idea that the Paul VI Audience Hall (also known as the Hall of the Pontifical Audiences) is intentionally built to resemble a giant snake head—both inside and outside—is actually an internet-driven optical illusion and conspiracy theory, not a deliberate architectural design choice. Who Ordered It and Who Was the Engineer? - Who Ordered It: Pope Paul VI commissioned the building in 1964. As papal audiences grew larger, Saint Peter’s Square could not always accommodate crowds (especially during bad weather), so he wanted a dedicated, modern indoor auditorium with high capacity. - Who Designed/Engineered It: The building was designed and engineered by Pier Luigi Nervi, one of Italy’s most renowned 20th-century civil engineers and structural architects. Nervi was famous for his pioneering work with reinforced concrete, dramatic sweeping arches, parabolic curves, and acoustics. Why Does It Look Like a Snake (Inside and Outside)? - The short answer: It doesn't in real life. The "snake" appearance is a product of visual perspective, wide-angle lens photography distortion, and human pareidolia (the tendency to perceive familiar patterns, like faces or animals, in random objects). What About the "Scary" Statue on Stage? Many people who believe the snake theory point to the backdrop sculpture behind the Pope’s chair. ° The Artwork: Titled La Resurrezione (The Resurrection), it was created by Italian sculptor Pericle Fazzini and unveiled in 1977. ° The Meaning: It is an 80-ton bronze and brass sculpture depicting Jesus Christ rising from an olive grove in Gethsemane. Fazzini stated that he wanted to depict Christ rising out of a landscape shattered by the threat of nuclear war—reflecting Cold War anxieties of the 1970s—symbolizing peace and resurrection overcoming chaos and destruction. While its jagged, abstract modernist style can look intense or eerie to modern viewers, it is not a snake or demon. @CanuckFireGirl
Look closely at this construction. Does it have a snake head? This is the General Audience | Paul VI Hall (Pope's Audience Hall). For me, No. But if you insist, let me explain.

I'd like to suggest that promoting child marriage, stoning, halal animal torture, wife beating, sharia courts, and other behaviour contrary to British values, should now be referred to as Anglophobia

This pattern is diabolical and growing.
🇨🇦 Another historic church reduced to ashes. At 3:30 AM Monday, the Saint-Simon Catholic Church ,the largest wooden church in New Brunswick and the heart of this Acadian community , was completely destroyed by fire. Authorities are treating it as arson. Motion detectors went off. Flames started in the sacristy. By morning, a century of baptisms, weddings, funerals and community life was gone. This isn’t “just a fire.” It’s the latest in a long line of Canadian churches going up in flames while politicians look the other way. Our Christian and cultural heritage is under open attack, and the silence from Ottawa is deafening. The people of Canada deserve answers, justice, and a full Notre-Dame level rebuild not excuses.

Considering the very disturbing and macabre case and “support videos” about mothering and babies, here’s some counter-programming. Moms who love their kids far outnumber the broken display we’ve seen lately. #ILoveMyKids
