Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach. Those who can’t even do that fail upwards into administrative positions.
those solenoids can go bad, pretty easy and inexpensive fix

Even if both poles had land it wouldn’t be all that unusual. Because of the rotation of the earth, the centrifugal force causes the water to bulge at the equator. Sea level at the poles is around 13 miles closer to the center of the earth than at the equator.

You do realize that you can put 57,000 in an inflation calculator to get the exact buying power converted to 2010 (& 2013) as in the graph and it is closer to 400k than 160k-200k? I’ve done it in 4 inflation calculators atp. One being the one on the bureau of labor statistics. No Way you seriously think that $57,000 in 1970 is the equivalent to $160,000 in 2010 or 2013?


You lack comprehension of what you are reading. So once again, the numbers are ALREADY adjusted for inflation. The number was never $57000 in 1970. It was probably close to $9000. They already adjusted the numbers so we can make a fair comparison.

If the cost to fund the K-12 education of a student would’ve stayed on the same trajectory as the $57,602 in 1970, we’d be spending over $400,000 per student (marked for inflation and economic growth).


You do realize that data you linked is already adjusted for inflation right? We weren’t spending $57000 in 1970, we were spending the equivalent of $57000 in 2013 dollars.
Uber/Lyft is not very reliable there. Book a private ride. Will be more expensive then uber prices but better than the per person rate for a shuttle and you won’t have to deal with making multiple stops on the way. Couple options would be Rogers rides or Valley transportation

It's hard to enought to combat cheating when you can focus on a handful of critical states. It would be impossible to stop with a national popular vote.

So what remedy are they asking for?


quote:

The party has asked the court for an injunction requiring the county board of elections to release the names of the affected voters, to require the elections board to extend election office hours through Nov. 4, and to create a process for the party to identify voters who received additional mail ballots , among other requests.
quote:

The county announced earlier this month that about 300 voters received ballots intended for others in addition to their own because of an error by its Ohio-based vendor, ElectionIQ.


quote:

An additional 1,800 ballots were never mailed by the vendor, the county said.So unless the affected voters reached out to elections officials, they would not receive their mail ballots in time to vote in Tuesday’s election.


quote:

They also point to the mail ballot returns in Erie County, which trail the statewide return averages. Only 52% of voters who requested a mail ballot had returned one as of Monday, attorneys said, or 21,536 of the 40,844 requested. This is 15 percentage points less than the statewide average, where 67% of voters who requested a mail ballot have returned one.


It’s not 20000 actual missing ballots, just that many have been requested and not returned.
Got in earlier this week at LSU ML +150

Kamala is familiar with a “full-throated endorsement”.


Pretty sure the guy who said it is no stranger either

I have the Kickr indoor bike trainer and like it a lot. You use your own bike, take off the back wheel and connect your bike to the kickr. It provides magnetic resistance. It's compatible with a lot of different apps, but I normally just use a basic interval program that I made.
I saw a one handed pitcher throw a no hitter in Yankee Stadium. It was my first and last mlb game, figured everything else would pale after that.

Whatever it is, there will be 50 former intelligence officials to declare it Russian disinformation.
The numbers will be skewed by the Asian population in the east and west coast. It could be 100% support or 0%, those area are going to go for Harris either way. The only thing that matters is the swing states. I don't think a national poll on Asians will be accurate looking at how they will vote in those swing states.

If you look at the radar, anyone from west of Baton Rouge to Mandeville is going to be to claim the "eyewall on top of me", so Lafayette to Slidell isn't too bad.
