Feel free to discuss appropriate non-BYU/Sports related topics here. We ask you to respect other users, the Church, avoid soapbox postings, and keep it clean.
I'm very pleased to announce that I have finished the initial programming of a new and completely redesigned CougarCorner Prediction game. I have been rushing to get it finished in time to allow anyone who wants to join to do so, so there may be...

First 2 games for 2021 season are added to the game. I have noticed I have been having some database issues, due to a lack of resources. So be patient if it goes slow or needs to reload.
Playing the Prediction Game is fun and easy. It only takes a few simple steps.
1. Sign up for an account. As you signup you will be asked to pick a username and password, enter your email address, and so-on. You will also be asked to type in a...

You can always enter any game and save the results as your default picks, meaning those will automatically save for the rest of the games. But then you can always override the default picks by selecting specifically for any opponent.
Up until a few weeks ago I was still checking this site very day even when there were no new posts for weeks at a time. Now I am not and I think it's time for me to move on. I'm going to try out CougarStadium. They claim their traffic is slow, but I...
I ask because of the recent BYU survey and recommendations.
I attended BYU with a few years off here and there from 1976 to 1984. My dad immigrated to the United States when he was 16 and worked as a migrant farm worker almost all of his life....

The only time I witnessed it that I can recall 20+ years later was after the first sacrament meeting of a new Fall semester when there were a lot of new faces, including one African American student. She sat in the row in front of me and she wore a...
At least for Joe Biden's health. I'd rather have him as President rather than Kamala Harris, a person chosen for the color of her skin and not for the content of her character.

I have made it a habit to pray for every elected leader we have, whether I agree with them or not politically. A habit we could probably all benefit from.
I'm a moderate conservative Republican, but I can't think of too many legitimate VP choices that Biden could have made that would be worse than Harris. I say that after watching the Democrats' debate in the fall. She, Warren, Sanders, and Booker...

A lot. He did not do well. He didn't think Trump was following the rules, and since Biden wouldn't fight back against it, he thought he needed to. If Biden doesn't want to talk, then he doesn't talk.
I followed the Lubbock County (TX) example to create some meangingful Covid data for Utah. If all you are seeing being reported are the number that have tested positive then at best you are being given an incomplete picture and at worst fear...

I'm not sure we know that vitD and zinc kill the virus, but having them in your system seems to help fight it.
I work in the old folks insurance arm of the medical field and also get to hear inside numbers from doctors and clinics that apply to the sickness, contagion, and likelihood of #19 being already vastly spread. From my perspective (the true numbers...

I think there will be a drop in attendance to less than 50% of what it use to be. It will be hard to justify the multi million dollar salaries of many of the coaches. Basketball has a few more months for things to return to whatever normal will be...
Is there a report that shows which governors used drastic measures and which party they are from? Someone said that the democrat governors want this to be a mess until the election. Any support to that statement?

Our Idaho Governor is quite conservative but ordered a state wide shelter in place order. This virus is not partisan and I think the reactions to it, as the infection continues to spread, will be less partisan as well.
Now maybe my first mistake was going to Reddit, but I've seen numerous posts from college students crying about having to do their courses online and that it's too hard for them. This includes r/byu. They are praying that their professors give them...

During grad school we had several courses that we COULD do from home if we wished, online was available and the lectures were recorded. Labs were mandatory.
in the end a lot of us preferred the online version in PJs.
I am so embarrassed of him. To say his deep Mormon faith played a significant role in his decision to vote for conviction on the phone call when allllllll the evidence proves otherwise. The transcript, the UKr. President, the payment details, and so...

Romney can do what he wants. The thing that irritated me is it was a John McCain moment when he decided to embarrass the president in order to make himself feel better because he is still butt hurt from things Trump has said about him. Romney knew...
US job growth surges in January with 225,000 added . I don't know how to cut and paste but this is on the news this morning. A month ago they news was saying unemployment was at a 40 year low. I don't know how many politicians are working for this...
W O W!! Now if that isn't someone trying to tell you the black is white.
How can an intelligent individual consciously say such a thing? Having a belief that doesn't agree with yours doesn't make mine discriminatory. The same counter argument...

I don't know guys.....if the church has survived abolition of polygamy and the priesthood to all worthy male members, it will survive this. I sometimes wonder why the honor code is more strict than church standards when it comes to attending and...
For example, I had no idea previously that the US Air Force jets took to the sky to bring down hijacked flight 93, but not with missiles or guns, but by ramming it, thus having to sacrifice...

I understand why fighter jets aren't housed with live missiles but I would think they would have had gun ammo. I just looked up and read that some speculate that the scrambled jets at least had some training ammo in them. I don't know how accurate...
A recent survey by The Daily Utah Chronicle found that about 36% of University of Utah students identify themselves as Latter-day Saints, although more than half (54%) grew up in the faith.
By comparison, nearly 62% Utah’s overall population shows...

Will chime in here very late.
I can confirm that the church is growing very quickly in West Africa. To the point they are having problems with leadership not being trained well enough and there is some turnover as a result. I was shocked by the...
Hey everyone, I'm hoping you can help out our own resident author. There is an LDS Book award that WifeOfHawkwing is up for, but it requires a certain number of folks to nominate the titles, which are then read by a committee and voted on. If you...
I'm familiar with those tactics. Most of those in the Arab/NE Africa do not think the way you or I do and it takes most westerners years to allow themselves to understand it if it all - a kind of arrogance built in to western thinking. The ME are...
For an undergraduate does either matter, or is BYU-I just as good?
Last post
If my children aren't able to get into BYU Provo, BYU-I is a decent option. I don't live in Utah, so would not encourage them to apply to Utah schools. There are good/better state schools here.
I agree. BYU was just rated as the best value school...
