I lived on the shore of Lake Mendota as a undergraduate - way back in the 1970's. When the ice broke up it made a lot of noise as the sections moved around and collided with others, and, if there was any significant wind, they piled up on the shore. Inevitably, despite a lot of warnings, there were rescues of ice fishermen who were trying to get the last fish of the season, and...
I also recall minor prizes awarded by a radio station for the sighting of the last remaining evidence of winter, which would typically be a chunk of ice in a parking lot off N. Sherman Avenue. In mid-May. The residual of a huge pile of snow that had been dumped there during plowing operations.
In my parents day, they recalled wagering pools at local bars on lakes in Wisconsin which would be for the correct estimate of when a junk vehicle would fall through the ice in the spring. I'm doubting they removed the fuel tank, engine block and radiator before letting it take the plunge.
At Anchorage the Chinese specifically repudiated the "rules-based order" as a colonial remnant. They are going to have their own order. I haven't seen comment on this but it repudiates the entire basis of the present Democratic policy toward China. And it repudiates the entire basis of policy toward China since the Nineties. It vindicates Trump's policy which was based on the understanding that China has a "China First" policy and we should negotiate based on that understanding. Since nothing has been said about this startling development, I assume the Democrats have no policy to put in place of "drawing China into a rules-based order through concessions." But I expect the US Autonomous Region led by Hunter's father will continue to make the concessions. Such concessions in return for nothing are, after all, part of a "China First" order and lead to stellar economic performers like North Korea and the Uigher Autonomous Region

Ice update: The UW women's hockey team won an NCAA championship championship yesterday by beating Northeastern 2-1 in OT.
The Lady Badgers won everything there was to win this year. WCHA regular season, WCHA tournament champions, and NCAA tournament champions.
Six NCAA titles ties the gophers for the most NCAA titles by any women's hockey team. Coach Mark Johnson has built a dynasty in Madison.
yea!
Just imagine how much even better next year’s Lady Badgers will be with women assigned male at birth joining the team.
Or should I have said *ladies* assigned male at birth?
Mark Johnson? MOI Mark Johnson?
