Spätestens seit der FedCon 2026 hat das Trek-Fandom einen juristischen Liebling. Doch wer denkt, es handele sich um Manfred Krug oder Samuel T. Cogley, liegt daneben: Jens Ambrock ist Datenschutz-Spezi und Autor des neuen Sekundär-Standardwerks "Das Recht der unendlichen Weiten: Gesetze und Direktiven im Star-Trek-Universum", das alle Aspekte abdeckt von Föderationscharta bis zum unerlaubten Eindringen in Holodeck-Programme.

KC's major league sports teams moving to Kansas has always been inevitable. It's not just that the STAR bond money is too good to pass up, in the case of the Chiefs, they had no option to build new with an entertainment development anywhere in Missouri. The team is fibbing. This wasn't close, it wasn't decided last week and was more like a 48-3 football beatdown. No Missourians should rejoice they aren't on the hook for it all and can look forward to lower income taxes. Seems like a win/win to me. The winner in all this, of course, is Clark Hunt. His team is really, really good at football. But his business is next level American Capitalism elite. Mizzou hoops may be in big trouble this year after a disaster against Illinois. Bill Self says Darryn Peterson's family is now involved in deciding whether he will play or not. Oh, boy. Trump bounce back in polling in a big way. He announces a new golden fleet of Trump Ships and my childhood root beer stand could be returning to KC in a meaningful way.
Once in a while you stumble on to something that is not just insightful and historic but also fun. Root Beer is one of those topics. Born from the health tonics named Sarsaparilla, Root Beer was invented in the late 19th century by Charles Elmer Hires. Its popularity exploded leading to other notable brands like Barqs and A&W, each with their own unique story. Root beef is a look at an older world, where healthy, tasty and joyful all came together to transform a culture, create innovations like "root beer floats", all reflecting a different America that didn't take itself so seriously and finding time to enjoy a natural drink that brought smiles to faces.. as it still does. #BardsFM_TheAmericanBrand #RootBeer #Joy Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%:www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.
