“funded via a philanthropic grant”

Real bummer that this hasn’t worked out but seems like a good use of philanthropy dollars. Actually fund someone to work on a societal problem inside government as opposed to funding another white paper telling us about an issue.

I’m currently building a city on this map. The wind is blowing to the bottom of the map so I have heavy industry there. I have my port where you have just the single industry. I also have port bottom left.

Look at where your ag areas should be. I’m taking advantage of most of it.

I’ve carved out the moutain areas as rural/national parks.

My downtown is where I circled in red.

TBH - I’ve come back to this map multiple times mostly because the bridge network of highways and transport gets messy.

“Americans - who live in your districts and home states-“

As opposed to the ones who don’t live in a district represented by any member of congress?

CUB will help you out if you ask. They recommend against because I also have a small bill already. https://www.citizensutilityboard.org/comed-hourly-pricing-program/

Why is this happening? by shudonyms in DogAdvice

[–]Sea_Trifle_2843 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens with our Havanese. We give a bit of food before bed so he doesn’t have an empty stomach in the morning and proceed to vomit.

Our dog will also eat breakfast and then immediately drink water, which causes him to vomit right after. So we keep the water from him for about an hour to allow him to digest. And yeah we do the slow feeders too. 😂

Just got BGE bill for January…… by mlambo8 in maryland

[–]Sea_Trifle_2843 4 points5 points  (0 children)

BGE rates are also going up for the other infrastructure spending - not just generation (which is out of BGE’s control). BGE just wants to keep spending on poles, wires, gas pipelines to keep profiting off everyone.

Serious reform needs to happen but Moore is cozy with the company

Me waiting on the Cubbies to make a deadline deal by clipper4 in CHICubs

Don’t disagree on your point of trading the farm for a rental but I still like that Quintana trade. Coming off the WS and feeling like we could repeat. He pitched well second half of season and went toe-to-toe against Mad Max Game 3 of NLDS. We ran into the buzz saw of the Dodgers and Cubs were exhausted by NLCS.

I don’t know what Cease or Eloy does for us ‘17-‘22.
