After Tech faces the Big 12’s longest road trip, they will then head back out on the road on Saturday to face LSU on Saturday. That game will be no picnic as the Tigers are 10-4 overall and 8-1 at home on the season.

If you’ve ever applied for a mortgage (xin vay có thế chấp), you know it’s one of the most painful processes out there. Keeping up with payments and dealing with customer service over the course of the loan is no picnic either. So it’s no surprise that big bucks are being poured into the space with the goal of making the process easier, more digital and more transparent.

And domestic politics are no picnic either. In the 1920s, the white supremacist militant (cuộc chiến đấu của những người ủng hộ thuyết cho rằng người da trắng là ưu việt) group known as the Ku Klux Klan exercised clandestine (bí mật, giấu giếm) control over statehouses and local governments across the country. The 1990s saw several major incidents of far-right, anti-government violence, the most deadly being the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building in 1995, which killed 168 people. At the time, before September 11, it was the deadliest terrorist attack (cuộc tấn công khủng bố) on US soil.
