    I wouldn't use bone conduction with the digital. They're not as good a modestly priced over ear headphones - but they're perfect for listening to Charles Rosen playing the same Bach as I am. I can fit my good phones over my ears at the same time - and they work well with a real piano. I'm playing them at a lower volume - and seeing how in synch I am with the real performer. It is through such efforts that I strive to move from bad playing to inspired mediocrity, the highest level of performance I can hope to achieve.

    So in order to demonstrate that remote voting is prone to dishonesty, they have a remote poll.

    Tourette’s is more than just vocal and physical ticks. It ebbs and flows and manifests itself along with numerous other disorders particularly ADHD, OCD and anxiety. Prescription medications that deal with the Tourette ticks can exacerbate the other disorders and vice versa. More recently there are however some fairly effective cognitive and rehab therapies that psychologists and speech pathologists can work on with some patients. Tourette and its associated disorders can be a debilitating disability for some but not necessarily for others.

    I've had good results with physical therapy. Maybe that could be considered chiropracty lite? When I was in my 30's, I went to a physician that did spinal adjustments, and they worked. He had me cross my arms while laying on his flat padded table, and then pretty much jumped with all his weight on my crossed arms. My back would pop like a series of popping buttons, but I felt better when he'd do it. And, he would sometimes do it for free, given I was a poor grad student. He wasn't a chiropractic, but he was a D.O. Don't think Osteopaths have been part of this discussion yet. They are legal in Oregon, I think there's a university here somewhere that churns out D.O.s He was a very bright guy, and I could tell by his practice that he was getting insanely rich. Go figure I guess.

    @George-K said in Going For the Record: Nice. So about 1 out of 10 adults in the country work for the government. The rest of us work for the government until late sometime in April. https://wm-cpa.com/accounting-insight/tax-freedom-day-2023/#:~:text=Each year the Tax Foundation,could celebrate Tax Freedom Day.

    According to The Denver Gazette, the men cited discounts on the sticker prices, and Kohl's coupons they had, to bring the items down below the threshold for felony theft in Colorado, which is $2,000. The documented value of the items stolen was $2,094.98, the district attorney's office said. With Kohl’s Cash the actual value was likely somewhere around $60.

    One of the greatest and most wonderful parts of hearing a choral ensemble is hearing so many different and unique voices coming together. But there is also a unique beauty in hearing a single voice singing different parts in harmony with itself.
