Do you have any unsegmented worm specials?

Correction- documented, but not in medical literature.

Does "wartime reforms" mean "Southern senators weren't around to stop it any more"?

You don't have to let them by immediately electing them to the U.S. senate. Platner could spend some time campaigning for a local or state office, or volunteering with a nonprofit that battles antisemitism, so that next time he'll have an actual record
of not passively endorsing Nazism.

This is it, the truly great thing.

Many protest organizers have trained de-escalators on hand to deal with people who are disruptive- whether because they're trying to bait people, are having a bad trip/ psychotic break/ whatever. Look for them.

LED blinking rings, light tube necklaces, and windup chattering teeth here at the allergy house.

20% of the US population ages 18-24 is overweight or obese. Good luck meeting your recruiting quotas, Pete.

Genetic signature of differential sensitivity to stevioside in the Italian population The demand for diet products is continuously increasing, together with that for natural food ingredients. Stevioside and other steviol glycosides extracted from the leaves of the plant Stevia rebaudia...

Here's one study on the issue. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

I suspect there's a genetic issue here - as there is for people who taste soap when they eat cilantro, or a nasty bitter undertaste in stevia. We do not all live in the same perceptual wold.

I once made an all-butter-crust pie out of apples I'd picked that day (Cortlands and Macintosh, I think.) It was one of the most splendid things I've ever eaten.

My grandmother also used to talk about "second summer" illness - when toddlers in Kansas ca. 1900 would die of diarrheal illnesses because they were drinking water, not getting all their liquid from breast milk. Great grandma boiled her water, and all her kids survived to adulthood.
