      @jon-nyc yes...

      That was my first attempt at the cold-pan sear. Not bad for a first try, though.

      @Mik I'm not worried about defensive response time. Taking back power to initiate war does not mean removing power to take defensive actions. It is also possible to leave an emergency measure in place that allows the Commander in Chief to do whatever is necessary to thwart an imminent attack while requiring any war-like actions to be approved by Congress within a limited time frame (say, 36 hours).

      Personally, I am quite comfortable with returning war powers to Congress.

      Had a buddy in high school that drove his dad's old pickup to school. Not nearly as nice as this, but kinda the same color...

      There's no need to pay bank or credit card fees if you have a phone. Call them and take a position and they'll drop them.

      Over a thirty year period, my hospital saw approximately the same number of patients, albeit with a pronounced shift to outpatient events. Our doctor numbers remained fairly steady, but with less residents and more staff positions.

      But we saw a marked increase in HR, various nursing desk jobs (InfCon, PI, etc.), HIS, and at least a half-dozen Clipboard MBA types from Admin, covering things like Joint Readiness, etc.

      None of these guys actually laid hands on a patient.

      I've worked with a few of those.

      True. But even good farmers live on the razor edge of profit or loss. Amateurs? Destined to fail.

      There has to be a balance between rights and responsibilities. I'm afraid we have tilted far too much toward rights here.

      I don't necessarily approve of what I'm viewing here, but I suspect like most things in the modern press it is intended to outrage more than inform.

      He should be okay. I would be very concerned about Trump’s sanity if he used capitals and underlined every other phrase to emphasize what considers to be a point.

      At this point I am just concerned with his maturity.
