Families looking to spend Thanksgiving weekend outdoors can do so without spending money. Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton announced this week that entry fees at all 75 state parks and recreation areas would be waived on Friday, November 23rd, the day after Thanksgiving. Although most state park offices and visitor centers will be unstaffed or minimally staffed on Free Park Friday, a variety of on-site and online resources are available for visitors. Dayton says the idea behind Free Park Friday is to encourage all Minnesotans to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends on the day after Thanksgiving.


The U.S. flag, a majestic bald eagle, or the iconic painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware, evoke a strong sense of national pride among Americans at home and abroad. These timeless symbols of freedom and democracy will be on grand display as we celebrate our nation's 245th birthday on Independence Day. Another symbol of resilience, strength, and patriotism is in the Army Reserve crest, which depicts the image of Captain John Parker. Captain Parker, who commanded the Lexington militia, played a key role in the birth of our nation during its first battle of the Revolutionary War by mobilizing the Minutemen of Lexington, Massachusetts, to the intercept British soldiers marching to Concord to search for the hidden supplies and weapons. A farmer and a mechanic by trade, he took up arms at dawn on April 19th, 1775 and ordered his company of 70 volunteers to stand their ground on Lexington Battle Green, otherwise known as the Lexington Common. A battle ensued, ending the lives of eight American heroes and marking the beginning of our struggle for independence. Captain Parker's bravery and initiative epitomizes the spirit of the citizen soldier, one of the reasons his likeness was incorporated into the official Army Reserve symbol of 1922. As we celebrate Independence Day with friends and loved ones, I ask that you reflect on the symbolism that fireworks displays, our nation's flag, and John Parker represent to our fellow citizen soldiers, their families, and the millions of men and women around the world who support our armed forces, veterans, and fallen heroes. Happy Birthday America!


how Dr. Clef contained Christmas. And by the way, just before I start, I want you to know, we are currently at 16 people viewing the channel. That's the most views a livestream has had. Cheers, Site 42 family. Every skip locked on site, like Christmas a lot. But Dr. Clef, who worked at Site 19, did not. Dr. Clef hated Christmas, the whole Christmas time, but please do not ask him, he might rip out your spine. It could be his head wasn't screwed on just right. It could be perhaps that his hat was too tight. But I think the most likely reason for this was the hate in his heart for all of the skips. For whatever the reason his hate, heart or hat, he stood there on Christmas Eve suspicious of all that. He stood there on Christmas Eve suspicious of all that. Staring down the hallway with a rigid concerned walk at the warm lit containment cells all in his block. For he knew every skip contained on his block was busy now with the whole Christmas crock. The specimen of SCP-610 is hanging entrails on the wall. He puzzled over this behavior, but who should he call? Still puzzled, his fingers were nervously drumming. Other skips were preparing. Is there a Christmas breach coming? Then he growled all alone in the observation room. I must learn how to stop this Christmas breach soon. For tomorrow he knew all the skips down the block would wait bright and early, might break all their locks and then oh the noise, oh the noise, noise, noise, noise! That's one thing he hated, the noise, noise, noise, noise! Then the skips young and old might break out and feast and they'd feast and they'd feast and they'd feast, feast, feast, feast! They might feast on researchers, guards and the director something that Dr. Clef would not tolerate in this sector. And then they might do something he hated, he did every skip down in 19, Ketter and Euclid might break out together with SCP-513 ringing. They'd run hand in hand and the skips would start killing.  And the more Dr. Clef thought of this whole skip Christmas evil the more Dr. Clef thought, I need to stop this upheaval. We can't afford a K-class scenario now. I must stop this Christmas breach from coming. But how? Then he got an idea, a sexy idea. Dr. Clef got a wonderful sexy idea. I know just what to do! Dr. Clef smiled in his room and he requisitioned a D-class jumpsuit and a broom and he chuckled and clucked.  With his get up and broom, it'll look like testing is planned. All I need is a helper. Dr. Clef looked around, but since helpers were scarce there would none to be found. Did that stop the old doctor? No, Clef simply said. If I can't find a helper, I'll call a favor instead. So he called his friend Dimitri and evacuated the base. Then he armed the site's nuclear device, just in case. Then he took guns and amnestics from the site arm in his vault gave some Dimitri and said blow the site if I'm caught. The nukes down the hall, that's the plan B if I'm dead. Duh, said Dimitri and followed where it led and Dr. Clef gave a sigh and headed on down toward the cell block where Skips laced a snooze all around. Mmm, yes. All their cells were dark, eerily quiet was the air. Skips were all dreaming horrific dreams without care. When he came to the first little cell on the square there's his stop number one, the old Merthless dock hissed and he climbed through the vent amnestics syringe in his fist then he slid down the air ducts, he was quite actually quite deft. If the old Grinch could do it then so could the Clef. He got stuck only once for a moment or two then he slid it out of the ventilation chute where peculiar stockings were hung in a row. This contraband, he grinned, are the first things to go. Then he slithered and slumped with a smile most unpleasant. Around the room and he took every unauthorized present candy and spiders, tinsel and crud. Stillborns, ornaments, mucus and blood. I'm just coming up because this is making, going to sleep, don't put it to sleep. And we're back. And we're back! Where was I? I don't know. Ah yes, Stillborns, ornaments, mucus and blood. And he stuffed them in trash bags then Clef a bit later. Stuffed all the bags in the incinerator. Then he slunk to the control. Then he slunk to control. He'd locked down the whole block.  He closed every bulkhead as quick as a flash. Why, that doctor even locked it dumpster for trash. Then he burned all the contraband with victorious glee. And now, grinned Dr. Clef, I'll lock down SCP-173. And Dr. Clef grabbed the cleaves and he started to open when he heard a small sound like the chill of an omen. He turned around fast and he saw a small skip. SCP-191 was at the door, who was not more than four. Dr. Clef had been caught by this anomalous bell, who'd awoke and quite slipped out of her cell. She stared at Dr. Clef and said, A D-Class, why? Why are you locking down our Christmas things? Why? But you know that old doctor was so smart and slick, he thought of a reply and he thought it up quick.   Then he brought out his gun and fired a whole lot. But the skip was so quick that it dodged all his shots. It slashed and it gashed against Dr. Clef's skin. But that crafty Clef knew she was close enough in. Then he pricked her with the amnestic syringe. She blinked, her chopped her. She stopped as she faltered. Dr. Clef gave a shove and he shoved her right in, right over the rambling into 173's pen. Then he gathered his keys and locked up containment. He thought it was quiet. With blood on the floor, he gathered himself, keyed up the radio and leaned on the shelf. Dmitri, come in, I got hurt rather bad. Be on standby, there's a few more things to be had. Duh! Said Dmitri, finger on the red button, watching the cameras for a signal or something. It was a quarter past dawn, lockdown was in full effect. All the sips still contained, all the locks were all checked.  He with a crooked smile, he grinned at his work. He laughed as he limped and he said with a smirk, poo poo to the skips, poo poo to the skips. He was mirthlessly humming. They're finding out that no Christmas breech is coming. They're just waking up. I know just what they'll do. Their moths will hang open a moment or two. Then the skips down in 19 will all cry boo-hoo-hoo. That's a noise, Grin, Dr. Clef, that I simply must hear. So he paused and Dr. Clef put his hand to his ear and he did hear the sound was starting to flow. It started in low, then it started to grow. But the sound wasn't mad. Why, this sound sounded merry. It couldn't be so, but it was merry, fairy. He stared down at the cell block. Dr. Clef popped his eyes. Then he shook what he saw was a shocking surprise. And we skipped down in 19. The tall and the small were singing without any breeches at all. He hadn't stopped Skip Christmas from coming. It came. Somehow or other, it came just the same. And Dr. Clef, with his bloody, chef-looking low, stood puzzling and puzzling. How could it be so? It came without killing. It came without breeches. It came without blood, destruction or screeches. And he puzzled three hours till his puzzler was sore. Then Dr. Clef thought of something he hadn't before. Maybe Skip Christmas, he thought, isn't something to lock up. Maybe Skip Christmas, perhaps, it's a chance to make up. And what happened then? Well, in 19 they say that Dr. Clef's hateful heart melted that day. After a minute when his heart didn't feel quite so tight, he whizzed past the control room under the locks from last night and opened the cells, let loose all the skips. They, the contraband, he did not burn in his trip. Mary Skipness, Skipness, Skipness is the word I said. Mary Skipness said, buddy Clef, as he came down for hugs. Mary Skipness said the skips as they hung back with some snugs, with tentacles, claws and hands and redacted. All grudges on Christmas were simply retracted. Wait! cried Clef as he shook the hand of a spook. I should call up my friend before he blows up the... They all died. The end. Very Merry Christmas tale. Dr. Clef sure is a rascally one. I can't wait to see how he saves Christmas later on.


Twins and White Sox tied up at two runs apiece. The bases are loaded. There's one out. If this batter reaches base in any way, it's a walk-off win for the White Sox. Be it hit, be it error, be it walk, be it hit by pitch. He reaches, they win. This breakdown is brought to you by DraftKings and look what happens. Brock Stewart, I just became a fan of him. Now they say that's a four seam on screen, but that had a lot of movement, like a two seam strike one. And then a slider strike two. Those play off each other pretty well, huh? Then O2, and I love that O2 pitch. He goes for the sweeping slider. They get him to swing at something that's bad. You gotta trust your catcher that he's gonna get over there and grab it because base is loaded. Wild pitch, pass ball, the game's over two. One and two count, slider again. That one's fouled off and then, oh boy, what happened? I'll tell you what happened. After all those sliders, he went to that two seam again, which goes the opposite direction and the batter got his hands out and then it hits him. If it's a hit by pitch, the White Sox win. But if it's a strike, he's out, it's a strike out. He's saying, I didn't get hit. I just threw my hands up after it hit me because it hurt. And there's some credence to what he's saying. Actually, I don't know what the rule is. White Sox manager's like, I don't know. I blanked, I don't know. Boom. And he throws his bat and they're like, that's a swing. I don't know, I'll leave it up to you guys. I'm kind of curious. Like you could argue, I mean, it's definitely a swing. I would rule a swing. But when it hits him, like if it doesn't hit him, is he able to pull back? Probably not because the momentum's gonna carry his bat a little bit more. But if he was able to just stop on a dime and go back, you could say no swing. But as soon as it hits him, the pain and his reaction does, he just takes that left hand. His right hand comes off and his left hand just throws the bat through the zone. And that's the swing. So it would have been a game winning hit by pitch had he checked his swing. It would have been very interesting if he didn't, you know, throw his bat afterwards. Cause look, it hits him. And then, or maybe he throws his bat to kind of play it off like that. No, you can't be doing that in the heat of the moment. Very interesting situation. White Sox should have just won there, but he swung at it and they ruled it a swing. So instead, it's an out. And look at the two pitches. If you're like, why did he do that? That's nasty. He did so many sliders in a row, so he's leaning. He's leaning to attack that slider and then he busts him in with that two seam fastball that runs in and it hits him. That's crazy. So now the next batter comes up and he opens him up with the slider. And then off of that goes slider again and now what's he gonna do? Same thing, go the other way. Nope, another slider, but that's three in a row. What's he gonna do now? The other way? Yup, same thing. Get some nasty. This is my favorite pitching overlay I've made this season because they go so deep before breaking. Look at this. That's crazy.  Thank you to DraftKings for sponsoring the breakdowns. Appreciate you guys as always. Thank you guys for watching. If you enjoy them, you can hit subscribe on YouTube. That helps me.
