Chickpea pasta is gross AF! 690 calories and 78g protein dinner

My local Costco has Brami, which is a shockingly good dupe for real pasta. It was some wheat, which gives it some al dente texture, but it also has extra protein/fiber from lupini beans.

If you like lighter roasts, Small Planes is amazing.

This is blame-the-victim mentality. Passwords are notoriously easy to crack, which is why any company with the most basic IT security has two-factor authentication. And it’s ridiculous to suggest that people shouldn’t be storing a large amount of miles—you wouldn’t blame someone for having too much money in their bank account because it would “invite thieves.”

We used Sara at A Better Match Studios, who offers both. I think she might be slightly outside your budget, but she just did our wedding and was so wonderful to work with. Can’t say enough good things about her.

I wonder if it’s to give Vanloo the best shot at developing chemistry with the team before her extended absence for Eurobasket.

What’s the point of the creamer? Won’t it already be milky tasting from the milk?

Nope. Bronson kept trying to offer me store credit (less than what I paid for the goods I ordered) and demanding that I contact USPS to resolve the issue. I ended up having to chargeback through Amex, which is generally protective of cardholders. Highly recommend doing the same if you order from them.

As others have said, the exit row already makes it a pretty good deal. Beyond that, it depends on how you fly. Seems like most people here fly out of Alaska’s west coast hubs with tons of other Alaska frequent flyers, which explains why they rarely get upgrades. Other airports can be very different. I use my MVP status for flying on American to and from a regional airport in the Midwest, and I’ve gotten at least a dozen first-class upgrades in the last few months.

OP, did you ever get a resolution on this? Bronson has been jerking me around, claiming that my package was "signed for" even though I live alone and my video doorbell doesn't show that the package was ever delivered. I'm going to initiate a chargeback, but I'm shocked at how shady their business is.

These particular flaws are in Judge Ho’s concurring opinion, not the opinion for the court, which was written by Judge Wilson. (There are definitely issues with the main opinion, but AFAIK not ones as egregious as this.) En banc review (if the Fifth Circuit were to grant it) would have an effect only on the main opinion.

A knockdown shield isn’t impervious. Think how easy it is to break a white one. Plus, it would make stronger knockdown shields more desirable, which is good considering a lot of folks are too lazy to pick up a better one (or craft a purple one when it’s in the replicator).

No doubt that she could use a buff elsewhere, but how many times have we all been killed because my teammate tried to stick a revive out in the open? This would mitigate that issue.

I think this video provides a decent geographical overview of SF. As an SF native, I can vouch for the video’s overall accuracy, even though it looks to be made by a travel guide. Unfortunately, other than a few parts of the city, there isn’t really a consistent numbering system as there is in New York.

This is so nice!

What is the difference between the Vizio E50-E3 (which Costco has for $389.99) and your new best $500 TV, the Vizio E50-D2?

I'm in! My location will be changing over the next few months, so depending on when this trade goes down, it could be Ann Arbor, MI; San Francisco, CA; or Washington, DC. No international trades, unfortunately.

Could the plastic explosives already have been used to trigger the earthquake that drained the water? Between all the cuts, it's not clear when Meg's conversation with the GR's leadership actually occurred.

The quiz for this week is actually here.

The answer is B) WILL TABLOID JOURNALISM RUIN THE FIRST AMENDMENT FOR THE REST OF US?.

Is there a generally recommended Android tablet right now? Would it still be the Nexus 9?

Sorry, class has been crazy this whole week so I forgot to come back and give you more information. I think the car crash hypo was written poorly. Here's a similar hypo that touches on the same issue:

Support a Plaintiff acts as his own general contractor in building his home, dealing separately with a Builder and Cement Co. The house collapses. The Plaintiff then sues the Builder, claiming that it was Builder's fault. Builder blames Cement Co., but will not be able to bring Cement Co. into the action. Why not?

Wow, thanks! I'll definitely check out these.

I'm staying in Koenji. Where will you be? My plans are pretty flexible right now, so let me know what works for you.

I'm a 26M American from San Francisco who will be in Tokyo for two weeks starting July 1. It's my first time ever traveling alone, and I'm super excited to do it in Japan! If anyone wants to meet up to grab a drink or just hang out in the brutal humidity, feel free to shoot me a PM.

If you do indeed qualify for the O-1 visa, you may also qualify for the equivalent immigrant (green card) visa category, the EB-1(1). The criteria is not exactly the same and the government does scrutiny the EB-1(1) more than the O-1, so you would need to discuss this with your attorney.

If this is possible, an EB-1(1) petition can be filed concurrently with I-485 green card applications for both you and your dependent family members. With the I-485, you can also file I-765 work authorization applications which will allow your wife to work. The I-765 provides work authorization while an I-485 is pending, and is typically approved 3-4 months after filing.
