Pac-12 football: USC, Colorado lead our final transfer portal power ratings of 2023 The Pac-12’s dizzying 2022-23 transfer cycle is coming to a close after several hundred players passed through the portal over a six-month span. Some of them did so twice.Our second and final canvassing of the upheaval led to slight changes in the Hotline’s transfer portal power ratings but no significant movement.In contrast to the state of affairs across the conference last year, the focus was less on quarterbacks and more on the lines of scrimmage. So while the relevant bodies are big, the names are not.(The initial rankings can be found here.)1. USCThe Trojans understandably focused on the defensive line with Kyon Barrs (Arizona), Jack Sullivan (Purdue), Anthony Lucas (Texas A&M) and Bear Alexander (Georgia), who had two tackles-for-loss and a sack in the national title game.

What Does the FBI Have on Hunter and Joe Biden?

What Does the FBI Have on Hunter and Joe Biden? Earlier this month, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., announced that a document in possession of the FBI that relates to Hunter and Joe Biden “has not been disproven and is currently being used in an ongoing investigation.” In the hands of conservative media and some leading Republicans, that double negative quickly transformed into affirmative proof of a criminal bribery scheme involving the Ukrainian natural gas company that had hired Hunter while his father was vice president.The entire Swamp is doing everything they can to protect Biden, but good to see House Republicans finally forcing some accountability. https://t.co/2ECwsZnv0y— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) June 6, 2023The idea that the charge has been proven is preposterous, but readers looking for details on the case have little place to turn outside of the conservative news outlets that have been making such claims. Yet if the FBI is telling Congress that it hasn’t disproved the allegation, it...

Activan monitoreo de sequía tras bajo nivel de agua en el río Potomac El área de DC necesita más lluvia.Los bajos niveles de agua en el río Potomac, el principal suministro de agua potable del área, desencadenaron el lunes un monitoreo diario de la sequía en la zona, según la Comisión Interestatal sobre la Cuenca del Río Potomac (ICPRB, en inglés).“Hemos comenzado un monitoreo activo de la sequía debido al bajo caudal del río”, tuiteó @PotomacCommis. “Enviaremos informes diarios a los socios con datos de flujo, tiempo y uso del agua”.El flujo de la corriente se mide con un medidor del Servicio Geológico de EEUUU en Point of Rocks, Maryland. Según el informe de monitoreo del lunes, el flujo del río cayó 2,000 pies cúbicos por segundo (cfs) por debajo del umbral de las Operaciones Cooperativas de Abastecimiento de Agua en el Potomac.La ICPRB indicó que hay una posibilidad mayor de lo normal de que el agua tenga que ser liberada en el Potomac desde los embalses aguas arriba a finales de este año. Esto podría incluir el embalse Lit...

El secreto que guarda en sus entrañas la falla de San Andrés

El secreto que guarda en sus entrañas la falla de San Andrés Un lago salado en el sur de California podría explicar las razones por las cuales la falla de San Andrés en California ha estado “quieta” y no se ha producido aún el terremoto conocido como “Big One”.Según se reporta en una investigación en la prestigiosa revista Nature, la falla de San Andrés es una de las más grandes del mundo con 800 millas de extensión y separa las placas de Norteamérica de la placa del Pacífico.Uno de los sectores de la falla, el meridional, ubicado entre el lago Salton Sea y la ciudad de Parkfield, lleva más de 300 años sin movimientos sísmicos, lo que ha generado preocupación entre los científicos ya que si existe energía acumulada durante todos esos años, puede ocurrir una catástrofe cuando sea liberada, y afectaría grandes zonas urbanas, como Los Ángeles. Estudio: hay mayor riesgo de que venga un fuerte terremoto en la Falla de San Andrés Informe: miles de edificios en San Francisco podrían derrumbarse durante un gra...
