Rachel Lambert used to work at Dear Inga, then started a pop-up ice cream and cookie place called Good Children, selling out of the old Anna's Danish Cookies store on 18th Street near Dolores Park. The pop-up was very successful and ended around March 2021 so she could get ready to take things to the next level. And I have been dreaming about those Linzer cookies and hazelnut toffee chip cookies ever since!
So if you know her, could you tell me if she still plans to return and/or how I can get those cookies???
Rachel Marie was born in the early hours of Tuesday, October 13, 1982, to Amy and Jeff Skemp in Melrose Park, Ill. Even as a baby, Rachel always had a smile on her face. When she was 3 years old, her parents got divorced and her mother remarried a man by the name of Vincent Mellon. Soon after Amy and Vince married, they had two more children: Jason in 1988 and Ashley in 1990. Together, the Mellon family lived at 612 Melissa Drive in Bolingbrook, Ill., about 30 miles outside of Chicago. Rachel attended Tibbott Elementary School where she grew to love reading and writing. While at Tibbott, she became close friends with a small group of classmates that remained inseparable until Rachel’s disappearance. At a young age, she began babysitting younger children in the neighborhood, often giving them reading and writing quizzes for practice.

She wanted everyone around her to be happy. Rachel seemed to have been born with a smile permanently etched upon her face. Rachel grew to love the environment and had a passion for recycling. Science was her favorite subject and she wanted to become a teacher one day. At the time of her disappearance, Rachel attended B. J. Ward Middle School where she was an honor student.
Photo from www.rachelfind.com. Many of her friends remember her as the life of the party and always the most beautiful girl in the room. Rachel got along well with her two half-siblings and was popular at school. Both Amy and Jeff were youth leaders at First Baptist Church When they were younger. Following closely in their footsteps, Rachel also became a youth leader. During the summer of 1990 when Rachel was 8 years old, she spent a week at Camp Grow in Green Lake, Wisconsin. While she was there, she felt called to become a Christian and was baptized at First Baptist Church shortly after. That same year Rachel was baptized, Amy and Vince got into a physical fight in their home. Amy filed a police report and a restraining order against Vince for hitting her, pushing her down the stairs, and making verbal threats against her oldest daughter, Rachel. The restraining order was eventually dropped and Amy and Vince got back together. In the spring of 1995, Rachel wrote a note and left the house for a 12-hour period because she was afraid she would be blamed for something he

It's the 23rd anniversary of her disappearance, I was going to school in Bolingbrook at that time and it still sticks with me, it's just obvious what happened "but no body, no case" is what they are going with.
The only thing of value I can add is her step-dad who very likely killed her worked for the park district or something like that and at that time there was a huge construction boom over places which were formerly just wild land or farm fields.
Yes, I’m fully on board with the criticisms of him being the mouthpiece for Men of the Year, but last night Dan was fucking fire on the mic. An economy of words, eloquent, succinct and sharp. Just a masterclass that Heenan would prob even be proud of.
Edit: His hoodie last night also looked cozy as hell.
I know this has probably already been said on here but hey I’m new and I want to vent. I’ve read the books and played the games but to be fair I read most of the books and played the first 2 games YEARS ago so I’m mostly basing stuff off of wild hunt.
Anyway.
Vesemir came across as cold, washed up and dumb. He aways struck me as warmer and wiser in the books and games.
Lambert and the other Witchers honestly just came across as basically uneducated, stupid and boorish drunks who are also creepy and pervy. I could not stand how Lambert and Eskel were portrayed. Yeah they can enjoy their whiskey and whoring but their mannerisms, accents, dialogue and general demeanor where so off putting. The relationship dynamic and banter between the Witchers in the game was a lot smarter, nuanced and witty. Basically they are just chest thumping dumb bros in the tv show cackling drunkenly at each other, saying “fuck” a lot and generally being painful to watch.
I was really looking forward to seeing Gerald interacting with the other wolf school Witchers because in the games you kind of get this feeling that he’s this big grumpy badass and then he goes home and you see that yeah he’s a bad ass but he’s also the somewhat nerdy big brother that everyone teases for being too idealistic. Yeah Lambert is kind of prick but he’s not supposed to be an ignorant boor.
Don’t even get me started on Eskel.
Can season 3 just be Geralt and Jaskier travelling around bickering and killing monsters.
Edit:
So seeing a lot of the comments I think maybe what’s also bothering me is how little they fleshed out the characters of the other Witchers. I think if they showed more interaction between them and Geralt or Vesemir that wasn’t in the midst of some emergency, fight scene or conflict. Having gone through Witcher training and the trials the fact that some of them are more caustic and bitter like Lambert makes sense but you only see like a 2 second flashback from Vesemir of all the boys dying during their mutations. The scene in s1 where Geralt talks to his mother about abandoning him to become a Witcher is great I just wish they explore that more from the perspective of the other guys. They are all meant to be bonded by shared trauma and hardship but I feel like that just gets glossed over for the whole “I’m a Witcher and I whore around, drink and do morally questionable things because hurrrrr manly reasons”.
I mean the prostitute orgy also made zero sense but hey.

His Description: I've got a real beauty for you kids today. Custom Kirby Lambert Augustus that I won here about 2 years ago. Since owning it, it's only been taken out for photographs; never carried by me, and never used to cut anything. Sporting a 3.5" recurve tanto blade in CTS-XHP steel with that classic aggressive Lambert compound grind. The bolsters are a mesmerizing Damasteel that seem to twist and turn before your very eyes. The handles are carbon fiber and features a full zirconium pocket clip. The centering and lockup are beautiful and solid. The detent is dialed in so perfectly, rocketing the blade out with authority and dropping shut under its own weight. The only flaws that I can find are a mark on the edge of the clip, and a very small snail trail on the bottom edge of the knife. I'm going to miss owning this one, but financial obligations take precedence over worldly wants right now. Comes with knife and logo'd zipper pouch that's been signed by Kirby.

Here's Goldman, BNY Mellon and Citadel dancing together
Here's a Goldman/Citadel related defunct exchange trading $GME puts
That exchange lit up again, spoofing
Citadel has a direct connection with EDGX where that originated from.
Citadel has been fined for spoofing before, It's why they were kicked out of China for 5 years
> Citadel’s hedge fund and separate market-making business specialise in algorithmic trading, which came under fire from regulators during a stock market rout in China in 2015. The markets regulator suspended a trading account operated in Shanghai by Citadel Securities in August of that year. The regulator then launched an investigation into “malicious short selling” in China’s equity futures market, closing 24 trading accounts that had allegedly “influenced securities prices or investor decisions”.
> The regulator at the time expressed concerns over “spoofing”, in which investors place a buy or sell order but withdraw it before the transaction is done in order to manipulate prices. It also criticised algorithmic trading for intensifying market swings during the rout, which eventually sliced off more than Rmb24tn from China’s total market capitalisation. Other analysts said the more likely culprit for the sell-off was an official clampdown on margin lending, where investors borrow money from brokerages to buy stocks.
Note: Citadel was using algorithms to spoof and to make the market super volatile.

I've read a few comments in the last couple of days making a passing reference to Mellon's claim but I'm having trouble finding more information. If anyone could point me to the interview it came from or any other pertinent information regarding the footage, I'd be terribly grateful.

This is HUGE! This gives the brightest minds in computer science and mathematics exposure to Algorand and the Algorand Virtual Machine. Algorand now has university programs at many of the best Mathematics and Computer Science departments in the world. Including Carnegie Mellon, UC Berkeley, MIT, University of Cape Town, Tel Aviv University, University of Waterloo, Tsinghua University, Sapienza Universita De Roma and many others. These universities span the whole world and every continent. No doubt the next generation of great blockchain entrepreneurs and minds will come out of one of these places. It gives Algorand access to great developers now and in the future, which at the end of the day is the life blood of any cryptocurrency. Hugely great news for Algorand and the future of Web 3.0.
Having programs at such amazing universities around the globe also ties into decentralization. These world class institutions run Algorand RELAY nodes, which mimic's how the internet was built in the 1980's. The future is bright for Algorand.
OK, I'm kind of spittballing but I think there is more to the BNY melon puts and the can kicking....
TL;DR at bottom
Christopher Manning is BNY Melon
So now that this is visible, lets remember that there has been found to be at least 1,000,000 PUTS on GME hidden in brazil. This was shown publicly on Bloomberg terminal.
Now that Apes know the can has been kicked for a whole fucking year, and even longer as we know the fuckery goes back to 2014...The months of December and January are coming up and. u/altnob has carefully put together this lovely chart showing where everything is due.
What I think helps retail is constant pressure on media outlets that read our DD and words gets around that another stone is uncovered this forcing the SHF to re shuffle their strategies.
How has Christopher Manning never been brought up, heck even Meric Greenbaum is a Designated Market Maker at Citadel, the guy you see with a concerned look on his face
Something tells me that Kenny is not the sole focus, rather apes have put him on a pedestal to be a speaker in steering the narrative while his senior executives push the buttons.
Yet the can gets kicked, Now lets get honest....there is an overwhelming amount of bulllshit DD that gets deleted because its fake and intentionally misleading. but these guys that work at Citadel are heavy hitters....and exposing them could ultimately lead to added pressure.
TL;DR
Christopher Manning is former Vice President at BNY Melon, now hired at Citadel...I think Kenny chose him because he has connections to Brazil....specifically for the 1,000,000 PUTS
Meric Greenbaum, is a Designated Maker Maker at Citadel...always photographed. As a Market Maker wouldn't it be fitting if there are several market makers who are getting GMe shares loaned to when a different market maker is maxed out... Why isn't he camera shy

Lambert’s guys and MotY have not exactly picked up a major win either.
I think Lambert and Taz are brilliant on the mic. But they each need a big win to brag about and rub in. Maybe Hook will break this, and the two stables can form an alliance.
On Wednesday, January 31, 1996, 13-year-old Rachel Marie Mellon Skemp stayed home from school with a sore throat.
Her unemployed stepfather, Vince Mellon, also stayed home with her.
At 10:45 AM that day, Rachel called her paternal grandmother, Lucy Skemp, to thank her for Christmas presents she’d sent.
Lucy stated that the phone call lasted about 4–5 minutes and that nothing seemed out of the ordinary until Rachel seemed to get very quiet.
Her grandmother asked, “Is he there?” referring to Vince, and Rachel replied, “Yes,” before stating she had to go.
This is thought to be the last time anyone besides Vince spoke to Rachel.
After the phone call, according to Vince, he and Rachel played Nintendo together that afternoon until she decided to take a nap in her bed.
While she napped, Vince says he took the family dog, a white German Shepherd named Duke, on a walk at around 2:30 PM in -20-degree weather.
During the 30-minute walk, the dog broke free of its collar to chase after a rabbit in a nearby field. Vince said he left the dog at the field, believing it could find its own way home.
Vince says he left the door unlocked and while he was gone, someone must have “snatched” Rachel.
Authorities maintain that Vincent never checked on Rachel when he returned home, but he stated that he did indeed notice his stepdaughter had disappeared after he finished the walk.
When Rachel’s six-year-old half-sister came home at around 3:15 PM after school, she discovered that Rachel was gone and told Vince.
However, the police weren’t called until Rachel’s mother, Amy, got home from work around 5:30 PM.
The police didn’t show up until hours later.
While nobody saw Vince that day, a local real estate broker returned the dog to their property with help from a neighbor between 4:30 and 5 PM.
Vince has maintained that the last time he saw Rachel, she was wrapped in a blue blanket in her bed, fast asleep.
Two pillows and the blue blanket she was wrapped in are also missing. Her winter clothes, shoes, and coat were not taken, even though it was -20 degrees that day.
According to her stepfather, she was last seen wearing a yellow sweatshirt, pink sweatpants and red house slippers.
Her purse and Walkman were also left behind and there was no evidence of forced entry.
An extensive search of the surrounding area turned up no signs of Rachel. Authorities conducted searches of the ground, air, and water using geothermal imaging and drones.
Authorities stated she coul
... keep reading on reddit ➡In January of 1996, 13 year old Rachel Mellon Skemp wasn't feeling well and stayed home from school. She wasn't home alone on that bitterly cold day, her unemployed step-father was home with her.
Around 11a she made a call to her paternal grandparents. Around lunchtime she played Nintendo with her stepdad then decided to have a nap since she wasn't feeling well.
At approximately 2:30 p.m. on that 7 degree day (-13 Celsius) her stepfather, Vince Mellon, took the family dog, Duke, out for a walk. While on the walk Duke slipped his collar going after a rabbit. Vince looked for the dog but gave up and went home without him. He did not check on Rachel when he returned.
When Rachel's half sister arrived home around 3:15 she noticed that Rachel was missing.
When Rachel's mother arrives home from work around 5, she is told by her daughter that Rachel, who was too sick to go to school, isn't home.
Bolingbrook PD is called around 6:00p.m.. Because Rachel ran away once before the previous summer, they don't begin investigating right away, but tell Amy Mellon to start calling Rachel's friends to see if she can find her.
The next morning, February 1, police begin searching for Rachel. There is no sign of the girl. Missing from her room is her blue blanket and two pillows. Her coat, shoes and winter gear is still in the house.
When police find her diary, they locate an entry where she talks about how her step father, the man who had been a parent to her since was a toddler, had kissed her on the mouth and touched her inappropriately.
With no crime scene and no sign of Rachel, there isn't much law enforcement can do. In January of 2000, four years after Rachel went missing, a grand jury is convened, but no charges are brought against her parents.
Vince Mellon repeatedly takes the fifth during his questioning before the grand jury.
The Mellon family eventually moves from the Chicago area to Tennessee. Vince Mellon has had frequent run ins with law enforcement, most frequently an April 2017 drunk driving arrest.
so, where the hell is Rachel Mellon Skemp?
