Me: Can I get reimbursed for this?
University: Yes, but you'll need to jump through several unpredictable hoops, confront multiple technical hitches, and we will lose your request. It will be the most difficult process you've ever experienced. Shall I send you the forms?
Horse race reporting is lazy work that can have a huge effect on the outcome of elections. Questions news consumers should ask: Has the event happened yet? If it hasn't, why is it being reported as fact? Who are the stakeholders? What do they win? Who loses? Why?

My career coach has suggested that I start wearing bow ties in order to elevate my game to the next level.
This is everything. Polls are not news, particularly when assessing public opinions on a horse race of a presidential election that isn't happening until Nov. 2024. At this point in time, news organizations are not reporting news. They are using polls to confuse and distract.
The fixation on low-cost, horse-race coverage might satisfy the political media’s desire to project insider expertise or to appear neutral (hey, it’s the voters who say these things!), but there is no excuse to recycle highly flawed data washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

At 8:32 am on May 18th 1980, the right flank of Mount St Helens, which had grown over 500ft of material, would slide off the mountain, uncorking a tremendous force of power that would forever change the landscape and the lives of those living near. PC Gary Rosenquist #43YearsAgo
ALT This photo shows Mount St Helens minutes before 8:32 am on May 18th 1980. The tree line of evergreen can be seen a the bottom of the photograph and a tall Mount St Helens can be seen in the center.
ALT This photo shows the right flank of Mount St Helens sliding off causing the worlds largest landslide.
ALT This next photo in the sequence taken a minute in to the eruption shows two clouds begin to release from the mountain. as the landslide continues down the north flank like a river of rock and debris.
ALT This final photo of this sequence shows the later blast begin to move over the landscape. The blast is large clouds of superheated hot rock, gas, and released power. Like a soda bottle on its side.

If you've got ways to get the message out to folks recreating in the Hole in the Rock and San Rafael Swell this afternoon, thunderstorms producing heavy rainfall are moving through this afternoon and have the potential to produce flash flooding. #utwx
