Chris Carson wants other backs to be compared to him. That got me thinking. How would we describe Carson? Do we see elements of other rushers’ in his game? Or is he like ODB? There ain’t no father to his style.

My wife told me that she listened to
Enter the Wu-Tang Clan (36 Chambers) seven times yesterday! She’s stuck with a pretty long commute and all but
damn. On one of the tracks every member of Wu-Tang is introduced by Method Man and briefly described. The virtue of these descriptions is that they’re lyrical in nature. We do not learn that Ghostface Killah is 185 cm tall and grew up on Staten Island, poor guy, but that “he’s on some now you see me now you don’t [shit].” The “shit” is implied.
NRCS ‘listening session’ takes comments on enhancing water quantity in the West.
A stronger focus on groundwater recharge, fixes to crumbling infrastructure and the continuation of a federal Water Subcabinet were the most popular requests from growers and organizations speaking in a USDA-led online forum on getting the most from limited water supplies in the West.
In an open-ended “listening session” hosted Dec. 17 by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, speakers from California to Oklahoma pushed for projects that would improve their access and efficiency with water as droughts are expected to worsen in the coming years.
Many called on federal officials to boost support for groundwater basin restoration projects such as one underway in Washington state’s declining Odessa aquifer, where agencies are building a network of surface-water conveyance to reduce the roughly 100,000 acres of irrigated agriculture relying on deep wells.

An emotional, uplifting victory on the road against a division rival strongly enhanced the Baltimore Ravens’ chances of reaching the playoffs and provided a positive vibe during a season marred by injuries, a three-game skid and an outbreak of COVID-19.
Now, with a soft schedule in front of them, the Ravens need to get healthy and finish strong.
They own Baker County Custom Meats in Baker City.
In 2020, though, that break is not meant to be.
âWe are slammed. All the butcher shops around are slammed,â Jana Woodcock said.
Kevin Silveria, who owns Valley Meat Service in Wallowa and Staffordâs in Elgin, is busier than heâs ever been since he started in the business 17 years ago.
âIâve never seen a year like this â and I never want to see another like this,â Silveria said with a chuckle.
As the pandemic progressed last spring and through the summer, Woodcock said local cattle ranchers were butchering twice or three times the number of animals as usual.
