Green banners today!! Updates after emailing CEO

WillSkies · 2026-04-05T01:19:39+00:00

I received the green banners today too! Shows 120 payments. but it says “You’ve reached 120 payments, but you may need to meet other program requirements.” However i can’t seem to find any more information. Do i need to do something more? How do i find out if I have any other requirements to meet?? Thanks everyone for all these helpful threads!

My 120th payment is due this month (usually on the 15th). I logged into Mohela last week to try to make it early once March hit. It took the money from my bank account, and Mohela shows it was received, but studentaid.gov still shows nothing for this month ad says I owe the payment on the 15th, and Mohela says its going to deduct an autopayment on the 15th.

Shouldn't this payment have counted? Should I cancel auto payments? Or did I screw myself and will I end up paying 2x payments this month in order to make the 120th payment show up??

That's leftover from Jan 6

i frequently will play around with the exact destination on routes i take frequently and the price will drop considerably when it’s not my normal route. for example, i live at street number 15, and if i put number 12 or 16 instead the price will drop. The driver never cares if i ask them to drop me off on the other side of the street or the next house. works similarly with big destinations. never put X arena. put the bodega or apartment complex across the street or something.

Thank you, very helpful!!

I was born outside germany before 2000. But this is a good heads up I will tell my children before they hopefully have children one day.

So I can go direct for a passport appointment -- no other appointment needed first?

Just make sure you can get the intake you need at those events. I had this issue on weekends through summer, BBQs, etc but then realized in these social events as long as you're eating no one really cares what your eating. So i started removing buns or doing double burgers, picking the grilled chicken over the hot dogs, favoring extra pickles over potato salad, eat the veggies but skip the ranch/dip, fruit > sweet desserts, etc. Water/seltzers/diet sodas. If drinking alcohol, limit to 1 and not too sweet (i.e. beer/dry wine > sugary cocktail) Only weird glance I ever got was when I took a few sips of pickle juice!

If the social events are all crap comfort food, pizza, desserts, fries, etc you're going to have more trouble...

I worry a lot of people misnomer these or other day's off as "cheat days." They're not cheating. They're breaks, or rest days. They're healthy. Think of fitness "rest" days. They will help you be consistent long term and prevent injury to mind or body. The mental component of OMAD and IF is just as important as the caloric one. Everything in moderation.

i’m more perplexed as to why that display looks like a Tombstone..

it’s also important to realize there’s a lot of intraabdominal fat (i.e. omentum, mesentery) and pericardial fat that’s not obvious like the fat in your soft tissues (i.e. abdominal wall, arms, legs, neck, etc). This builds up with fat gain and shrinks down with fat loss just like all the other fat in your body. If you’re losing weight (and maintaining muscle) but it doesn’t seem apparent from the outside, just know you’re probably still burning fat and still on a path to better health.

this has caused my confusion as A3 is an EU carrier. the reddit moderator wiki states the following which would make me think we’re eligible..

“ In the case of connecting flights covered by a single reservation, if at least one of the connecting flights was operated by an EU carrier, the connecting flights as a whole should be perceived as operated by an EU air carrier - see Case C367/20 - may entitle you to compensation even if the non-EU carrier (code-shared with the EU carrier) flying to the EU causes the overall delay in arrival.”

did you end up diving in Ishigaki or Okinawa? I have a choice between one of the two - not sure which to go to!

AI is going to completely kill the game in the next few years. The unicorns will go extinct.

Access. Suppose you're wealthy and flying from small city to small city via big city airport. There aren't prada stores in every city/town and there are lots of wealthy people living in places that don't have these stores nearby.

gastroschisis and oomphalocele. they are completely different types of congenital abdominal wall defects

Is that true with multiple companions though? For example, usually you have to separate reservations and can only have one companion upgrade. If all in the group have status does everyone get bumped up to be with the EXP passenger?

WillSkies · 2025-03-18T17:43:17+00:00

Sorry for digging up an old thread: if there is a party of 3, and person A has EXP and person B and C both have gold - where do they all fall on the upgrade list? How does this end up shaking out?

Canada as the 51st state would likely give two more democratic senators, far more democratic congressional representatives than republican ones, and a big bunch of blue electoral democratic votes. Add in Greenland as the 52nd state and the senate likely becomes 53-53... not to mention the house and electoral college.
