When built upon a solid foundation, which is warehouse logistics. That includes all the steps it takes to store, manage and prepare goods for use within any warehouse or distribution center. The speed at which business now moves has meant that efficient warehouse logistics quite simply are make or break for the general ability of a company to keep up with demand, remain cost-effective and on top.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy is suddenly confronting a new threat to his power. Angry hard-right conservatives have brought the House chamber to a halt, reviving their displeasure over the debt ceiling deal struck with President Joe Biden. McCarthy brushed off the disruption as healthy political debate — not too different from the 15-vote spectacle it took in January for him to finally convince his colleagues to elect him as speaker. But it's a foreshadowing of the next budget fight as Congress tries to fund the government at the levels agreed to, or risk a federal shutdown in fall.

Presidents come and go, but White House grounds superintendent Dale Haney has been a constant through the past 10 presidencies. As of this month, Haney has tended the lawns and gardens of the White House for 50 years. But he may be better known for taking care of the president's pets. Lately, he's often seen with Commander, President Joe Biden's dog. Haney started at the White House in 1972, and said he planned to work there for just two years. President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, surprised Haney on Monday by planting an elm tree on the south grounds to honor Haney.

Stocks and bitcoin surge ahead after Trump wins the White House

Yesterday, during markup of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2025, the U.S. House Armed Services Committee approved an amendment to the NDAA that would automatically register all draft-aged male U.S. residents with the Selective Service System for a possible military draft, based on information from other Federal databases.

This system of automatic draft registration would replace the system in effect since 1980 in which young men can decide for themselves whether or not to sign up for the draft -- and so many choose not to register that the Selective Service database would be useless for an actual draft.

Contrary to earlier reports, the U.S. Senate has joined the House of Representatives in moving toward a foolhardy attempt to 'automatically' register all draft-eligible U.S. citizens and residents for a possible military draft, by extracting and aggregating information obtained from other Federal agencies.

The proposal for "automatic" draft registration is among several previously-undisclosed provisions related to Selective Service in the newly-release version of the National Defense [sic] Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2025 approved by the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) and to be considered by the full Senate.

The 1,197-page SASC proposal for this year's NDAA was approved by the committee in closed session last month, and only a summary was released. At the time, a spokesperson for the SASC told me that if "automatic" Selective Service registration had been included in the bill, it would have been included in the summary. That proves to have been incorrect: The proposal for "automatic" draft registration was included in the SASC version of the bill, but not in the summary.

Although Good Stuff House has actually been a loose collective/group for some time now, Endless Bummer is only their second release and first non-CDR output. Comprised of Mike Weis and Matt Christensen from Zelienople and Scott Tuma, the trio plays cloudy drone music that sounds like a psych/folk rock group playing in spaces that range from a basement to an airport hangar. In places, the reflections are close and the sound is somewhat sparse and breathy and in other places huge waves of sound roll off into the distance.
