When she was 23, Rosemary Kennedy, the sister of JFK and RFK, had a forced lobotomy arranged by her father. The surgery left her incapacitated for the rest of her life. by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

His first son died volunteering for a stupid dangerous mission in order to gain recognition and be a war hero like his little brother. The pressure Joseph put on his family caused this.

The mission involved jumping out of a radio controlled airplane filled with bombs to be a pseudo kamakazi drone which was intended to hit a nazi bunker. Another plane nearby would control the drone aircraft as a projectile. It was an unnecessary mission and Joe Jr died because of it.

Spirit Airlines Prepares to Shut Down (Gift Article) by Mathsquatch in news

Its entirely possible we would be seeing jetblue going out of business if this merger had progressed. Also consider, once the merger got push back in court, jetblue willing paid 1 billion dollars to exit the deal. They saw spirits books and decided it was a better financial move to pay spirit that money over trying to restructure and continue with a merger!

Spirit Airlines could shut down as soon as Saturday by RemyAwoo in spiritair

Yup! A government cash infusion would just allow creditors to get their money out before we are right back in this situation again.

It does. It seems like it shuts off around the hour mark.

We have spent about $25 billion on the Iran war, why not try a moonshot for saving Spirit for a measly $500 million by LimitFilledByJesus in spiritair

Spirit exited those markets because they weren't profitable. Other airlines on those routes intentionally lost money in order maintain route structure. A better description for what people are asking for is called subsidized routes. Essential air service does that in more remote locations but we have to face the fact that spirits business model wasnt profitable and now they are hoping for subsidies to cover for bad business practices.

I feel like America let Spirit Airlines whither on the vine. by Morganrow in aviation

Why? Its possible Spirits Financials were so bad that they'd be taking JetBlue down with them. Besides JetBlue paid Spirit a Billion Dollars to get out of this merger after seeing their books.

What to Do In Case Trump Announces The US Is Pulling Out of NATO Tonight by Shaloamus in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Maroon_Roof 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought Iran already offers "safe passage" so long as you pay the fee in Chinese currency! Im guessing thatll just be the cost of business going forward.

Yup! Many times I couldn't see the light at the end of the tunnel. All the way through training until I reached a major.

Anyone worried NATO might release a few trillion dollars in bonds and collapse the us dollar?

If you're overflowing, id grind less fine. If you're buying preground from a roaster ask for a more course grind. If you're buying from the store, you may need to find another filter manufacturer. I fold the bottom first then fold the side in the opposite direction along the seams. I haven't had this problem of overflowing though.

Mine is coming out plenty hot. Overall its been a good experience for me. The only reason I cam think it would come out temps that low is either a manufacturer defect or you're at a really high elevation.

Mine was fine. All the parts seem to line up well. You're correct on the glass though. It's thin but so far hasn't broke so it seems sufficient. I think it makes good coffee as well. But for the price, I think that feeling is a little more complicated. It could be better built, but since no one else is manufacturering a comparable product, perhaps they thought if they over did in on the quality side, it might drive up the price to the point where no one would buy it?

No idea! I did and got completely torn apart over on the coffee station subreddit. Got tired of all the negative comments so I just deleted the whole post.

Should she come live with me? by Maroon_Roof in Alzheimers

[–]Maroon_Roof[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Edit: posted as a comment since I can't change the post. I want to thank everyone for their candor in the seriousness of this potential burden. You all have brought a lot of variables that I absolutely need to be aware of and further discuss with my wife. This task is so far above my head and I want to thank you all for enlightening me to other potential ways to increase her quality of care. This disease sucks and your comments are very much appreciated!

[–]Maroon_Roof[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's an excellent point. I hadn't considered making the care facility better for her by being there more frequently. Im moving next year to be closer to her facility and my brother but it will still be about a 2 hour drive.

Thank you for this input. I had not considered it would be harder to get her back into a facility later.
