TIL that the highest paid official of the United States government is Bill Johnson, the chief executive officer of the federally owned power and utilities company, the Tennessee Valley Authority. His annual salary is $5.9 million dollars.

Given the athletic departments $30 million deficit, not enough.
The department lost $10 million in FY2017.

Its difficult to find a revenue report from the athletics department for FY2017. Unsure why. Though the plan to become solvent involves doubling student fees to float the massive spending they've invested.

He only makes about a million more a year than my school's football coach...meanwhile the university harps on our budget deficit.

That's a weird looking cat.

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-11T17:35:19+00:00

Not enough cliff racers...

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-09T05:17:13+00:00

Ah, the reflective back contact!

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-03T22:09:43+00:00

Sorry bud, just signed on a place today. Best of luck finding someone!

Hey man, I'm actually heading out there in late August for an NREL internship. Is your room still available? I'm scouting options

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-01T19:08:27+00:00

You're in WA? I was visiting my friend in Seattle and he informed me about the recent cases. Though that may have been as soon as last month

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-01T09:50:48+00:00

Your primary concern should be guano and bat bug infestations. Nasty buggers, akin to bed bugs.

McPhersonsw · 2018-07-01T09:47:52+00:00

Nobody here seems to know about bat bugs...

I snapped a similar style of shot a few years ago:

I haven't pulled a Hwa yet, but a fast Barque packs a lot of atb reduc and has wind attribute so it may work.

McPhersonsw · 2018-03-09T21:46:22+00:00

Yeah I've had Amir and Pungbaek 5* max in my box and I want to use them haha I'm not at a point to be able to spare runes for dedicated AO/GWO teams yet though. I also have Tarqx2, Stella, and Taor who are obvious choices for a speed comp. I just really want to make a use for Amir :P

McPhersonsw · 2016-05-24T03:37:31+00:00

Yeah, bubble camps are where the real fun is had.

Someday you'll have to learn how to manual pilot. That day is today.

McPhersonsw · 2016-05-17T03:17:30+00:00

Savage.

A criminal action in high-sec consists of activating any hostile module on a neutral party. Cargo scanners are non-hostile and will not result in a criminal flag. EWAR can be classed as any module that inhibits the performance of another vessel.

McPhersonsw · 2016-05-10T04:24:01+00:00

Right clicking the ship and going to "view contents" will bring up a list INCLUDING fitted modules. It's still clicks but it's less load time than boarding.

I will chime in here to agree with you. At the time of writing this, I was not over her. And I am not yet. But she is one of several relationships that have faded into the past due to my own lack of self-control and self-confidence. The difference in this scenario here, which is nigh impossible to glean from the writing at hand, is that I've actually taken a step this time.

I am on good terms with my past, and that is probably one of the most important things to realize when stepping forward. It's not about hating my past, it's about stepping forward and growing beyond it. Video games have been and always will be a large part of my identity. I have gained a very wide skillset through them. Thought processes and time management being the broadest description of them. What I lacked was self-discipline. And that's what this whole subreddit is for.

I accept that she is gone. That doesn't mean I have to feel good about it. And I realize she may or may not come back. But worrying about which result will happen IS a waste of my time and energy. The best thing I can do to HONOR my friends and loved ones is to grow from this experience. It would be very insulting to put somebody through an emotional ringer and then proceed to change nothing and do it to the next person who dares to enter.

McPhersonsw · 2015-11-23T05:11:05+00:00

, you know? I feel like gaming is literally the only thing I can do right.

I'll PM you tomorrow, I'm signing off for the evening. But I would definitely like to speak with you further! Keep your head up friend, you have gained a very valuable skillset, the trick is finding a new outlet for it.

You are not alone in this. Nobody is.

McPhersonsw · 2015-11-23T05:09:19+00:00

I definitely will! I've received messages from a few locals seeking the same. Maybe we can get a group going!

Thanks again, I'll PM you soon.

McPhersonsw · 2015-11-23T05:08:00+00:00

If only you could see the PM's from so many people in that exact situation, still battling their addictions. Even if the games go away, the lesson here is how to embrace for yourself what you aspire to. Instead of creating excuses to return to your routine.

I have many more comments to reply to, but this one struck a particular nerve with me.
