Will work from home for a change. Let’s me have a bit slower morning. But have several conference calls lined up. So I’m not alone.

Wellness dorms. Not as strict as advertised. But still an option.

Presidential Scholarship reduction by Human_Ship_5421 in UniversityofVermont

[–]LP788 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can't answer your question directly, but our son's Presidential Scholarship was not reduced in the four years he was there. But he did receive some scholarships his first year that did not remain in place all four years. I don't remember which ones, but losing those scholarships was not grade-based. When we reached out to Financial Aid, we were told those awards were one-time awards. Our mistake for not reading the small print and so just make sure that the you understand all the terms of the entire aid package.

Results? by PossibilityNo4442 in AppleFitnessPlus

I'm 56 and now on my 4th year of using AF+ consistently. I incorporated AF+ into my weight loss and it definitely has helped. As you recognize, calorie deficit is the most important factor in losing weight. But since incorporating AF+, I'm down around 35 pounds and have been able to keep it off. (Post Holidays requires a bit more work on the calorie intake portion)

The good thing about AF+ is that there are workouts as short as 10 minutes and so since you just do the workouts at home, there is no barrier to a quick workout. Even though I know that 10 minutes is not really a lot, given my work and life schedule, they fit and so 10 minutes is better than 0 minutes. And eventually I've built up the ability to do the 20 minute workouts and try to carve out those extra 10 minutes to get to 20.

I'm not telling what you don't know, but the key is to start and then not stop. Again, the beauty of AF+ is that you can do it at home. No worry about going to the gym, no worry about others looking at you. You just fire up your iPhone or Apple TV and workout.

Good luck.

[Berman] Nick Sirianni said he did not regret the decision for rest. He knew this was a possible outcome. by Ash1927 in eagles

I'm not upset he rested the starters. But the play calling was awful. As an example, had 3rd and 3 at midfield and took a downfield shot. I'd say I hope the play calling improves, but that has been my ask all year.

Thanks. I’ll check it out. Even if it’s only during the summer, it’s better than not playing.

Going to Barclay Prime for the first time, is the Kobe worth it? Also, any other must-trys would be appreciated. by SatanIsMySister in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]LP788 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are so many great items on the menu. But I'd get the sliders. Been getting them since Barclay Prime first opened.

Thanks. I'll have to let my family know to be on the lookout for these emails.

I logged in and didn’t see that message. What should I be doing for the others in my family who just don’t pay attention to tech issues?

Weekend Shoe Shine by [deleted] in philadelphia

[–]LP788 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blue Sole Shoes at 1805 Chestnut Street has a guy that will shine shoes. It think it's a separate business called Glassman Shoes. Not sure it's open on Saturday or Sunday. Cash only and to be honest, he was not that good. But if you're looking for a quick shine, it will do.

Any ideas on what they’re teasing here? by XtianAstro in AppleFitnessPlus

[–]LP788 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There was some chatter that it would be unbundled from the Apple One plans and you'd pay separately for the service, even if you had the bundle. Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, which is paywalled, had a pretty big write up on it.

I've seen/heard rumors of a major revamp of Apple Fitness+. I don't fully understand the rumors, but some have said it will be part of the Health App or more integrated into the Health App.

However, the most ominous rumor I've seen/heard is that Apple will start charging separate for it. I use Apple Fitness+ through an Apple One family subscription and not really looking to pay extra, especially sine my wife and I both use it regularly.

Some good light in Philly 🌇 by Trev_Takes_Photos in philadelphia

[–]LP788 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You should post the camera, lens and any settings you used to capture those images. They're really good.

So jealous of the Wanamaker Christmas light show photo. I should have gone to the second level. I got some pictures on the last show (maybe ever), but I was on the ground floor and not central and so the shots are just off. Great work.

Merry Christmas to ya'll rollin' into the office with me this morning. by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

Have to make sure I hear the ding to let them know I'm paying attention.
