Apparently they have identified and fixed the problem. Ground stop has been lifted, as of 8:15 ET.

My dishwasher broke the second week I lived here. All the major appliances were the lowest price point machines the owners could buy at Lowe's. They had bought all of them 4 months previous. They left a folder with the receipts. These people left a burning lightbulb that was broken in half and an air filter that hadn't been replaced in at least 2 years. They clearly bought the appliances because they needed all them for their final 3 month vacation.Theynhad more money than sense. I decided I didn't want to replace the dishwasher. I'm only one person and don't host holidays and don't have dinner parties. I'll probably let it just sit there forever. I would upgrade my new clothes washer and buy a matching dryer in the future. I'm like to have a flat top electric range. Much easier to clean. I won't but one. No need. What I did is spring clean the stove top, and order replacement heating elements and drip pans.nThey should be delivered any day now. The range is a GE and its fine. The refrigerator is a Whirlpool and it's fine too. So 2/5 major appliances broke on me, 4 months after they were bought. But yes. Washing clothes by hand is physical labor. No doubt.

@Mik Didn’t know you are in NOLA. Glad you didn’t decide to take that cruise.

The white shirt is glorious on its own, but I think the ruffle fights with the bracelet and vice versa. If there's ever a time for a bracelet-length sleeve, this is it.

There's almost certainly even more unreleased material. Incidentally, apparently she was a great businesswoman. She said she had observed men all her life and learned business, and she never let herself be taken advantage of, and never compromised. She said Elvis wanted to sing I Will Always Love you but she refused him cold because she wouldn't give up the publishing rights. She said her songs were like her children, and in fact she protect them and herself. I didn't realize I was such a big fan time back. I was just a fan. But I came to be big fan. Loved her personality, her music, her beauty, her humanity, and rare for me there wasn't anything I didn't like about her. RIP

I confess that’s a book I bought in college and never got around to reading.

@Daniel said: Please clarify? How was your floride use related to your acid reflux if at all? Acid reflux —> acid “overflows” back up to your mouth in your sleep —> acid soaking some of your back teeth —> wears down the enamel of those teeth —> fluoride helps your keep more of your enamel in that situation

More time for public first date shenanigans at Beetlejuice performances.

@Bernard That's great!!

Ah well, it was nice while it lasted....

@jon-nyc said: @Daniel said: It's no indictment of Islam, unless you would you'd like to throw all organized religions into the same category. Deal. (As I said before, whattaboutism rarely works with me, since the presumption that I hold the counter example sacred in any way is almost always false) Agree 100%. Given a chance, all of them would institute a government run by their cult and the rules said cult. Our founders were quite clear on the subject of separation of religion and state. America is in no way a "christian nation". That a good portion of our population thinks it is, makes me want to puke.

Good article. I knew things were progressing quickly but maybe not this quickly.

@bernard I see what you're saying. To clarify, this pharmacy manager is a borderline sociopath. I won't go into the saga of the days long altercation we had, but, trust me, all of it was on her for a lack of professionalism. And one day, she had to be dressed down. Her behavior was that egregious. One the flip side, she's a consummate professional. Some people have a a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde personality. Some people just do. I was actually just wanting professionalism from her today. The "human connection" was really a pleasant surprise given our history. I figured out key with her. Operate on her good side ,and the working relationship runs like clockwork. My point was more that there's not any "human connection" or warmth anywhere, for all intents and purposes. 99% of human transactions are based on the exchange of money (how could it be otherwise?). That kind of freaks me out. It just a personal idiosyncrasy of mine. I'm "reverse engineering" the problem as quickly as I can accomplish it. I've lived alone for 4 months out of 59 years.. I'm not asking anyone to feel sorry for me (certainly not) but I had a best friend in life for 38 years. Until I didn't. I'm adjusting. It's a steep learning curve You'd love (sarcasm) the famous " diva persona" of the Southern woman who talks to you as if ice wouldn't melt in her mouth why she eviscerates you to your face. Such women exist. Ask me how I know. Oh, I did tell someone off today, come to think about it. It was my Lyft driver. Both of the rear seat belts were broken. I told him people need seatbelts. I told him to have his seatbelts fixed immediately. I told him if he can afford a camera for his own protection he could afford to fix his seatbelts. Expecting people to ride without seatbelts? What? I was a total ***** from the time I got into the car until I got out of it without closing the door behind me. He claimed he didn't know. He offered to stop the car and inspect. I said just take me where I need to go and get your seatbelts fixed. He got out of the car at CVS and said he was going to inspect his seatbelts. I ignored him, opened the car door, and walked into the store. But he deserved it, in spades, taking people's money and knowingly endangering their lives. I didn't give him a review. He was off my timeline the spit second I was out his car.

It's years since i visited Fountains too. The Cathedral is earlier, dates from the 660's and the original simple small rectangular church was built by St Wilfred. [image: 15470.jpg] [image: 15442.jpg] They found the crypt of his original 660AD church (see also photo above) which you can descend into [image: 15455.jpg] The photos hopefully show just how beautiful this cathedral is, the elegant proportions, the fitings and decorations sufficient for glory without going OTT.

Probably his best possible reaction to recover from the shame.

Aditya Chakrabortty... Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s affair must be the costliest fling in human history – and a preview of what awaits when the tech bubble bursts Billions lost and markets roiled by one man’s indiscretion. Isn’t it now clear that these tech bros are too powerful?

I couldn’t quite place the name u til I opened the link and saw that photo. I bet she considered that photo unflattering in 2009 and is glad it’s still circulating today.
