Probably no profit after doing a background check. Minimum wage for the employee running it is $16.50/hr. With (estimated 40%) overhead, a half hour of an employee's time is over $10.

Only concern about the shot is immune reaction. And really more of a concern on repeated shots. My doc for this suggests a minimum of six months between shots. Not just on the same finger but anywhere for any reason. I have one trigger finger and an arthritic thumb joint. So for me, have to balance which needs treatment sooner, don’t wait until they both need help at the same time, but delay if practical. Plus always the possibility another spot elsewhere may need help… Too many shots over time may make things worse and that is the end of using shots. That said, I’m at four shots in two spots in 8 years. The relief comes pretty fast (days) and is worth it. Both spots acting up a bit again, may need surgery at some point. Shot is certainly easier. Ask your doc about these considerations, surgery has longer recovery time, my doc prefers shots over surgery, just not too many of them too soon.

This is something I just never considered before, the line helps the entire crew be ready for scoring. I for one do make something up when I forget. Hey, if I can't remember the sweep order or where I am in a sweep, how can I remember specific line?

It is newer. It seems making the heart pump is far more important than putting exhaled air into lungs only to immediately push it out when going back to the heart. Also recall some discussion of air getting pushed into the stomach resulting in the stomach suddenly emptying. Go get a refresher course from a trainer up on current methods. I try to do it every 5 years. Had a great trainer last time, a certified EMT who has performed CPR many times.

George Washington WAS the first president of the United States. The first president of the United States WAS George Washington. The president of the United States from 1789 to 1797 WAS George Washington. Does not sound right to ask: Who IS the first president of the United States? Who IS the president of the United States from 1789 to 1797? Can say my dad IS deceased. If he WAS deceased, that would also be strange. And while George Washington WAS the first president of the United States, he can not be replaced by a new first president. Nobody else IS the next first president. Yes, this works. It is present tense. George Washington is buried at Mount Vernon.

Dad has passed. His name WAS John Smith. That is the answer to wither question. The questioner might ask "IS" if he does not know of the passing. On a separate note, is the Alpo influence spreading? I had a question which made me think of him, and now you post this one.

Unless the mods start merging the threads... Anyway, still pondering that I can tiptoe but not tipfinger even though I have finger tips but not toe tips. Drove my manual transmission car today and also remembered I can heel-and-toe and toe-and-heel the gas and clutch yet nothing approaching any combination of fingers and wrists while shifting the transmission.

Looking at my fingers, I see finger tips. But it seems my toes do not have toe tips. Yet on pondering this, I realize I can tiptoe, but to tipfinger seems like nonsense. So my question is, am I suddenly channeling @Alpo? Apologies for putting this here, but it does qualify as useless and factish and maybe fun-ish and certainly not worth a new thread.

Squirrel gun? That is a ROUS gun! Graphic (but it is a movie for kids so deal):

Fair enough. It does account for the few I have been in. But I will allow that not all are the same.

Did a "Wally Walk" when I got my carry permit years ago. Had been several years prior when I bought a Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker which did not have a clock or other fancy stuff. That prior trip was the last time I was in a Walmart until the walk. I did not really even want to do the walk there but it made sense to get some initial comfort with carrying an arm in public. I had no problem with the infamous customers. The reason I had a problem came from the prior coffee maker trip, it was near the holidays and I saw how the employees (mostly new) were exhausted, overworked, not enough of them, and how supervisors were treating them. The company culture had an illness. I doubt it has healed over the years. I know many can not afford to shop elsewhere, but the best thing customers could do is stop patronizing the company so it can deservedly die, in hopes replacement companies would treat employees better as those employees could then possibly treat customers better. But as a customer and a former retail worker, Walmart does not deserve my business.

No case number or tracking page at this time. New appeal (Rush v United States) out of the 7th district: https://shared.nrapvf.org/sharedmedia/1512068/rush-v-us-cert-petition.pdf " Question Presented: Whether the Second Amendment secures the right to possess unregistered short-barreled rifles that are in common use for lawful purposes.

I just did a google search, found plenty of fund raisers. A lot of charity shoots for various causes. A few raffles for repair to a club range after storm damage. Even a few for sick members (run by a SASS club). None that struck me as a problem. The lack of random fundraisers, for a sick friend who is not in SASS, for various causes which have no link to the sport, not even some tenuous 2A link, or not associated with a club... Seems like there is some judicious moderation but the reality is not as absolute as the text indicates.

Not sure what the answer is, but these various programs have not produced as many results as policing has. Those who do not even complete a High School education are certainly "at risk." And by this I mean going into a life of crime. Education may not completely equal opportunity, but is certainly a strong marker of success. This may even be trade school, we still need welders and linemen; there are some jobs which do not require a college degree. Still requires completing High School. On the flip side, as long as the consequences of crime, such as drug dealing, are lower than the benefits of the lifestyle which comes with such activities, the benefits of education will be lost on those who would rather lead a criminal life. And even in jails, there are three hots and a cot. For those who do not value time, maybe they consider this an easy benefit and relief from daily struggle...

iPhone allows setting custom call and custom text sounds for any contact.

I suspect the part in red is an ancient leftover from the dawn of web time when server hosts charged for storage space. You made a post, my reply is also a post. I suspect the original meaning was to delete any thread which had no reply in the last 30 days. Today, I have no idea how old a thread has to be to get "archived" which closes it to new replies. But even then, it is still here.

Not sure, could be cross-eye dominance though...

Here is a random Invision powered forum I found. Can you open it or do you get the same error when using your phone on cell data?

Is that wifi or cellular? If cellular, I can not see the speed or latency causing your problem.

This site is sensitive to latency, how long it takes data packets to go back and forth. It is not that data intensive compared to most other forums. Try this link to get some basic idea of how fast your connection is: https://fast.com/# Click "More Info" to see latency numbers. "More Info" provides unloaded latency, loaded latency, and upload speed. I'll bet you have terrible unloaded latency. My home wifi generally is above 200 Mbps with 17ms unloaded latency. Fast load of all sites. Verizon data (just now, I have 1 bar at home) gets me 1.9 Mbps, 575 ms unloaded latency. 1% of wifi speed, nearly 40 times greater latency. This site is very slow, but does eventually (usually) load fully. What are your numbers?

An observation from a couple rulings. In Garland v Cargill (bump stock ruling): " JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR, with whom JUSTICE KAGAN and JUSTICE JACKSON join, dissenting. On October 1, 2017, a shooter opened fire from a hotel room overlooking an outdoor concert in Las Vegas, Nevada, in what would become the deadliest mass shooting in U. S. history. ... He did so by affixing bump stocks to commonly available, semiautomatic rifles. " And now in unanimously deciding Smith v Mexico, Kagan writes: " ... Mexico here focuses on the manufacturers’ production of “military style” assault weapons, among which it includes AR–15 rifles, AK–47 rifles, and .50 caliber sniper rifles. ... But those products are both widely legal and bought by many ordinary consumers. (The AR–15 is the most popular rifle in the country...) " The first quote is in a dissent, but dissents can be used in future arguments in other cases. The second quote is in a ruling. This makes it more compelling. One argument might be it should be ignored as it is dicta, but the quote clearly calls out the legal nature of the product and is thus arguably part of the ruling as to liability under the PLCAA, thus not dicta. And thus compelling for the other AR-15 ban cases in lower courts. Both in the context of being legal products and in that they are common for legal purposes. When a ban case does ultimately reach the Supreme Court, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson will need to reconcile that future case with what they have already written.

Yes and no. Data is a low priority compared to voice. Verizon network with an iPhone for me. One bar means data basically does not work. Maps can maintain and track location information but not search or map a new route. Web browsing does not work. Two bars is the minimum for data to work on this network with this phone. With no bars, maps can not even maintain position information, the circle of uncertainty gets bigger and bigger until it gives up. Voice calls may garble and drop. At the other end, with four bars, but in the middle of tourist season in a tourist area... Timeouts galore! Strong signal but no available bandwidth. When pages load, they do so very slowly. Outbound calls generally work, someone trying to call into these areas may go to voice mail.

Well then for all I know, I might be remembering a movie.

Sounds familiar, and recall various due process challenges for a long time after. And a summary on the news that the kids were in the bus exactly where the suspect said they were.
