    Tsar Vladimir could have awarded or marketed Putin Bibles but instead chose initialed crosses so not to appear a copycat of the banal. As a Russian he had to make it ostentatious yet solemn. He knew very well that macho Russian men covet gaudy bling. Especially when the bling can be linked to some sort of superstitious cult.

    If you scroll down the X thread, the text is an opening from a well known book. I guess this is fake, or satire.

    Maybe Ms. Washington was just following policy, written or unwritten. Regardless, the allegations are true and apparently, systemic. Of course, while these disaster victims are American citizens, they are Tier 2 citizens, being MAGATs and living in a red state.

    I've still got NYT at $4 a month. If I could get the other two for a similar amount I would just for the reading material. I'd never give the Cincinnati Enquirer any money. Just another formulaic Gannett rag. Too bad. used to be a fine paper.

    @Jolly said in Last night at prayer meeting...: This nation has had more than one leader who behaved badly. I think the root cause does not reside in D.C. or in a state's capitol. Yes, but you didnt hear about it, or they were "smart" enough to keep it in private. I think that things get "normalized" if we see public figures doing it, especially our "leaders". I do agree however, that there is defnitely alot more for the reasons why this is happening.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Why Cant Tax Be Included?: I do wonder whether leaving the sales tax out of the price has the effect of keeping the rates relatively low, I was thinking the opposite. LOL If there were too towns next to each other, and one price was 5% higher because of taxes, and the town lost business to the next town, maybe that would be incentive for them to lower their local taxes.

    We were a small government hospital with huge outpatient clinics, if you consider a 183 bed hospital seeing 100,000 outpatient events/ year as huge clinics. There definitely is an art to moving those numbers with smaller numbers of staff. You have to have ancillary services firepower. Fast throughput and as much automation as the budget will support. For example, our pharmacy filled an average of 700 ninety-day scrips per day. You don't do that without three pharmacists, a robot and a half-dozen pharm techs. You have to have good clinic triage at the ED or Urgent Care point to line this stuff up. And Resource Scheduling worked wonders. The biggest problem clinic was Internal Medicine, but those patients tended to be older and sicker. We could only do an average of 28 patients/day for docs in that clinic, a bit less for the NP's. The docs might could have handled a few more, but if you're a NP with a question or bad patient and the Doc is 20 feet down the hall...

    You know who I would look at? Dennis Allen. Allen doesn't have what it takes to be a head coach. He's failed twice. But as a defensive coordinator, he's had multiple top ten defenses and is very good at recognizing and developing secondary talent. Give Burrow and top ten defense and see what happens...

    The article makes a decent point, when you get past the clickbait headline. Just a bit of moderation on the Dems part in New York assures ballot box success. Adequate policing, prosecution of criminals, less illegals sucking services, less DEI. One can still be a progressive and be in favor of those issues.
