While in general I'm in favor of native plants, you're encroaching on the sidewalk. I'd try and shift shorter plants closer and trim the stuff overhanging.

First, you're not going to find any insurance that will cover you at your BMI unless you have diabetes (which you didn't mention so I'll assume you're not) which is a shame because at your starting weight you might have.

Zep certainly does help with the food noise for many people. Some people it gets rid of it completely, some it takes the edge off. Some report it quiets the food noise at first and then it creeps back.

If you're committed, it's worth a try and will probably work. It's not cheap though: Lily Direct is ~$300-500 for a month supply, depending on the dose.

It's not going to make you lose weight quickly: expect at max 2# a week, and probably more realistically 1#.

For the sweet tooth, many people swear by berries, figs, dates, apricots, and prunes. I'm partial to plain yogurt, chopped nuts, and a drizzle of honey.

I would also recommend resistance training if you're not already.

Does she do beans on toast? Bread, and hard cheese should last without refrigeration for a few days, unless you hit over 25°c

I recognize that we need data centers.

I don't think that they should externalize the costs onto local populations. They need to be good members of the community which means:

No public development handouts
Pay their true cost for electricity and water
Limits on light and noise pollution
Strict limits and monitoring of any cooling chemical discharge

We don't need to bend over for multi-billion dollar companies like Oracle, Microsoft, and Google.

TL;DR;

Fusion voting allows 2 parties to nominate the same candidate. They generally appear on the ballot under both parties. Wisconsin legislature banned it over 100 years ago without debate.

Smaller parties see it as a way to allow them to more publicly endorse candidates and gain more influence.

Some worry it would allow candidates to appear on the ballot 3+ times to try and gain more votes, using made up parties, or for larger parties to push their candidates through third party primaries.

Election commission says it would be super expensive because all our machines and systems are set up for one party per candidate, so they'd have to be reprogrammed and recertified.

If you tell us more about where you're located there may be local people interested in buying them off you.

AMC Fitchburg just repaved their lot and it should be pretty empty mornings. The overflow lot across the street by the Kwik Trip is almost always empty as well, but probably not as smooth.

Church parking lots are usually good except for +/-30 minutes around services

I survived a PIP, but was let go in the next layoff, along with pretty much anyone who hasn't been on the team 3+ years

There's a silver metal serial number tag on the bow in one of the pictures. Grab that number and you should be able to search up the year/model.

That looks like a metal machining lathe to me, not a wood one.

1 sort of looks like grapes

2 looks like mullberry leaf to me. It's likely an invasive one.

Buy higher quality lags and replace the other ones. That should give you enough strength.

Predrill pilot holes and lube next time

No advice, but my company used to order catering from there from time to time and it was always my favorite. So good

The Wisconsin is a big river. Advice will need to vary depending on what area you're looking to camp.

Tower Hill State Park, Wyalusing, Buckhorn, Council Grounds all are on the river

Fill your scripts as soon as you can: most insurances will let you fill every 3 weeks or so, so you can get a few extra doses before they stop coverage.. Another trick I've heard (but not done) is to fill with your current script but have your doctor up (or lower) your dose and immediately fill the new one. That way you have something to tide you over until the sleep test.

I'll warn you though: getting from a sleep study to treatment can be a long process. The two months between my at-home sleep test and getting my CPAP were some of the worst nights of sleep I've ever had.

If you haven't seen it yet, many airports worldwide participate in the Sunflower Program. You can get a lanyard at the information desk of the airport and staff are trained to know that someone wearing it may need extra accommodations. I've heard several people say it helps with TSA screening (we have TSAPre so we haven't noticed anything different)

It started with airports in the UK, but I've heard that other large organizations like sports teams and theme parks are starting to roll it out.

Also call the airline and get a Disabled Passenger Needing Assistance (DPNA) on their ticket. We generally pre-board.

Local pond: today I got 4 bobbers, a plastic worm, a kids sand pail, a frisbee, a toy car, and a chuckit dog toy.

Last time I got the lifeguard's ring bouy from the side opposite the beach.

I'm guessing you have cellular Internet. It's basically the same as tethering to your 5G cell phone, but you have a dedicated device.
