There can be only one.

What Is Kallmann Syndrome? Kallmann syndrome can cause late puberty or prevent puberty from happening. It may affect your sense of smell.

Boy did they misread that article.

A) Kallmann syndrome is not intersex but it is form of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

B) A single quote regarding “highly unusual and almost complete devotion to politics in his life” does not mention evil.

Did not expect this ending though: "According to a court filing describing the settlement, Tripp did not contest Tesla's claims that he stole trade secrets, and acknowledged that his counterclaims were funded by a short seller of Tesla stock."

Perpetual Charlie Browns always thinking the GOP will let you kick the ball this time. Jesus Fucking Christ what was this all for? To capitulate for a promise of a vote that goes nowhere on a crappy CR?

Brewing a Legacy: Honoring the Edmund Fitzgerald 50 Years Later | Great Lakes Brewing Company November 10, 1975. A date when the gales of November came early. A date that will never be forgotten by the people of the Great Lakes. A date on which […]

"And for Great Lakes Co-Owners Pat and Dan Conway, the connection runs deep: 'We know John McCarthy, son of First Mate on the Fitz, Jack McCarthy. John and his wife Darice are close friends with our sister Therese and her husband Fran,' says Pat."

I was 8 in '75 and lived near Lake Erie. We used to watch the ships go in and out of the harbors or down the rivers to the steel plants. That a ship that size could just vanish with all hands was incomprehensible.

I remember Amship still running before that asshole Steinbrenner closed it.

It's been House LA to Senate LA work behind the scenes to reconcile the NDAA.

I was at Senate Banking the last time we went to conference with House Financial Services over Dodd-Frank.

As an emergency excepted, I wonder the same thing. I took a Senate Credit Union "shutdown loan" ($5K, 0%, 90 days) for the first time in our 24-year careers and my wife had the option for another.

And for what? So 6 senators with a combined net worth of over $42M, plus Kaine & Fetterman, can fold?

Eligibility & Enrollment Welcome to opm.gov

They have the same FEHB plan Federal workers receive that is not fully paid for as there are pre-tax deductions. The only difference is that they have to obtain it (subsidized, unlike those they betrayed) on the DC ACA exchange. Here's the OPM guidance on that:

happy edmund fitzgeraldmas, make sure to hang out your many tons of iron ore, lest the witch of november come stealing

You think you're immune from a January shutdown and fuck the rest of us emergency exempted Feds who were gaming out how long we could last?

ATC are the biggest babies behind ICE/CPB agents.

Giving, receiving, or both?

No, it's not. My mortgage is ~$1,750/mo with insurance and taxes while it would go for $2,655 as a rental. As is.

If we put another $40K into upgrading appliances, minor fixups, replace the last 5 windows, new front door, etc. it would be $3,400.

Newer homes in the community are over $4K.

I think they flew Jeff Chris down from Indiana to mix this.

We have another Senate credit union shutdown loan available which would get us through Thanksgiving into December but only have TSP loans after that.

We're 7 & 11 years from retirement and didn't really want to touch it.
