    Finally, the execution was set for Saturday night. Smith had been on death row for three decades. And his execution was anti-climactic.

    For whom?

    On the other hand (pun pun) if she cuts off a few fingers while slicing, who cares, just screw some new ones on

    Uh, small problem...For them to actually provide decent results, all temps should be based on basal states, taken at the same time, using the same equipment calibrated to NIST standards, with an emphasis on consistent technique.

    The original paper says this in its abstract:

    These findings suggest that age, sex, height, weight, and time of day are factors that contribute to variations in individualized normal temperature ranges.

    Then the findings are mostly worth a warm bowl of spit.

    They worked it into the story pretty well. If you notice, during the We Are One number, Pike sounds amazingly like Neil Diamond.

    @George-K said in Biden’s done more on immigration than Trump.:

    GOP should run on that.

    I agree that they should and they probably will.

    Not everybody, but a lot of voters are very "in the present".

    "What is happening to the country NOW when the election is held." and I think that will work in the Democrats favor.

    If Biden closes the border, by the time November comes around, the story the Democrats will say is "last month, only X number of people illegally crossed, there has been a year of 2-3% inflation, Republics are still trying to outlaw abortion, MAGA, etc."

    For me, looking from 10,000 feet, it is the Democrats election to lose.

    It's not working as well as I'd wanted, financially. Also I'm too dependent on private electricity companies willing to buy the power back from me. I hadn't realized this was not a steady and guaranteed thing. I'm having to switch companies after my first year, because my previous company no longer offers their plan. The new one isn't quite as good. Who knows how that market will shape up over the 20 year life span of these panels.

    Then the warrantee for the panels and the roof under them is only as good as the company that backs it, and the company is showing cracks. They recently lost their BBB accreditation.
