Today's riddle: What is full of holes but still holds water? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Highest temperature in Dallas on August 22? (polymarket.com) — If you're curious how hot Dallas will officially get tomorrow, this prediction market is tracking the highest temperature recorded at Dallas Love Field on August 22 using Weather Underground data. It explains exactly which data table will decide the outcome and how any later revisions are handled before the following day's records appear.
• Dallas man arrested for multimillion dollar U.S. Treasury check fraud scheme (fox4news.com) — A West Dallas man has been arrested on federal charges accusing him of using stolen identities to cash more than $15 million in U.S. Treasury checks, including a nearly $13.8 million deposit at a Dallas bank. Authorities say he also faced warrants from Dallas County and nearby jurisdictions, and now faces potentially decades in prison if convicted.
• Texas Gov Abbott aims to ban H-1B visa holders from schools (asamnews.com) — Dallas ISD could be hit especially hard if Gov. Greg Abbott succeeds in banning H-1B visa holders from jobs in Texas public schools, since the district employs more such workers than any other district or public university. Local education advocates warn the proposal could worsen teacher shortages, particularly in bilingual and STEM classrooms.
