Hairdresser gets 5-year prison sentence after dragging client back into her salon by hair due to payment dispute
Our take: The 19-year-old hairdresser charged $150 for her service. The 15-year-old client tried to pay electronically but sent the money to the wrong account. The client was going to wait outside while her mom and the stylist figured out the issue. Jayla, the stylist, was not having it and grabbed the client by her hair and dragged her back into the salon.
The moral of the story is you'd best pay Jayla when she does your hair. There is a video to prove it.

A man goes on a first date only to find the woman’s entire family has also joined them at the coffee shop
Our take: You must read this story to believe it. The only comment we have is better to find out early that this whole family is psycho, so you can run as far away as possible as fast as you possibly can.

Multiple stories from all angles prove that everyone involved in the Minneapolis immigration situation is wrong
Our take: There is no link to a story for this take. Democrats continue to defend criminals, ignore local and federal law, and refuse to act like rational adults for even a moment. Republicans continue to defend aggressive actions that clearly trample basic constitutional rights, show a shocking disregard or empathy for the loss of life that has happened, and refuse to acknowledge when obvious mistakes have been made.
Unfortunately, when there are no winners, there are only losers. We are hopeful some of the changes happening (local law enforcement starting to actually enforce the law, Tom Homan replacing leaders who are clearly out of their depth in this situation, and more and more Americans outside Minneapolis refusing to endorse either side) may be leading us out of the desert here and back to a sane and rational approach to dealing with these issues.

Tip of the day – How to control your emotions from Professor George Buzzell
Practice mindfulness
One way to practice nonjudgmental awareness is to meditate, and it’s a lot easier than you might think. Simply taking five to ten minutes a day to notice what your body and mind feel like can help you gain an understanding of your emotional habits. This can act as a practice for when you experience emotions in your regular life. When meditating, pay close attention to any emotions that may arise and how your instinct tells you to respond. You can ask yourself:
What kind of emotions arise, and how often do they come?
How does your body feel when they arise?
How does your mind respond?
Are there any judgments when emotions arise?
Is that response helpful? Is there a better way to respond?
