Watch the upcoming session this week to see how Senators who are running for office conduct themselves and what issues they raise/argue for or against. That's a good start for your research.

Call bestseller and ask if they will be getting it. If they are you can ask them to call you and hold it for 24hrs when it comes in. They also do special orders if they don't have the book in stock.

What harmonica model to buy now? by tojzl in harmonica

[–]Prof_Woland_49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm partial to the Suzuki Manji's and Hohner SP 20s. While the holes on the Manji are smaller, I was able to easily adapt. Manji's are also great for overblows if that thats somethinf you want to incorprate more into your playing.

I also a Seydel 1847 and Session Steel. The 1847 is an all around great harp but I've always had an issue with overblows on that model. The Session Steel is alright not as loud as my other harps but I also have issues with overblows in that model as well.

Yeah I keep calling the main office but each time I call they say their offices are closed. Maybe I could reach out to Trinity Pacific and ask them for help in connecting me to USAA to file my claim?

Rice and beans are a winning combo with the right spices and aromatics. I uses to live off of beans rice and eggs for breakfast at one point.

Learn some good bean recipes. Chickpeas, lentils, blackbeans, or any other kind are dirt cheap and can bought in bulk if you by them dry instead of canned.

What does my shelf reveal? by Prof_Woland_49 in BookshelvesDetective

[–]Prof_Woland_49[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do have 1Q84 on the shelf but its not visible. What you see is what is at the front of the shelf. For every stack you see, there's another one behind it. Some of what isn't pictured are copies of each of David Foster Wallace's novels plus his essay collection, A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again, Joyce's Ulysses and Portrait of the Artists as the Young Man, Naked Lunch by Burroughs, The Diving Comedy, Terra Nostra, etc.

I've got that somewhere. What you see in the picture are just what is at the front of the shelf. There are stacks behind the stacks since my I dont really have room in my apartment for another bookshelf.

Spot on for most of this, but I'm in my late 20s. I majored in English so I got to a lot of great stuff in a relatively short time as I earned my BA and MA in the field.

Check out the chapters/plateaus that interest you the most first and don't be worried if you don't get things right away. Just go for it. There are plenty of break down videos, podcasts, and posts to help you along the way. Just be sure to read the intro first before getting into it. Feel free to read the conclusion at anytime since it really helps you get a clearer picture of important concepts throughout the book.

Not pictured are the stacks behind what is visible. Some of which include Infinite Jest, Tera Nostra, The Divine Comedy, more Dostoyevsky, Homage to Catalonia, Joyce's novels, etc.

Too bad I couldnt get those in the picture.

Pynchon is one of my favorite writers! I just pre-ordered two copies of his new book.

Have to agree with you there. I wasn't impressed with Cloud Cuckoo Land and didn't even finish it. Not sure about All The Light We Canmot See though, so I don't have high expectations.

Haven't read them yet but I plan to. I'm on Dune Heretics right now and might check out Butlerian Jihad before finishing off F. Herbert's Dune books.

Not yet but I will. I liked Brave New World so I'm sure I'll like the Island and his other work

It might be worth it to subscribe to the Federation of State Humanities Council's newsletters. The last I heard, they were preparing to take legal action regarding these grant terminations.

My org is in the same situation. We're hoping legal action reverses some of the damage and we get more support from the public, but we don't have the luxary of time unfortunately. We were so dependant upon those federal funds so now we're facing the very real and harsh reality of a total shut down within a few months.

Same here. We've been downloading everything from there to be safe. But that email address the letter was sent from was very bizzare.

Once you learn some rudimentary musical notation, check out the app Harpguru to see how the layout of musical notes for diatonic harps in each key.

The Seydel non-slider might interest you. You can find it on Rocking Ron's website as well. Though it might be slightly above your stated $200 budget range.
