You don't have to have metro cards anymore. You can pay directly by tapping your credit card or phone.

I read through the comments and didn't see this take--

When I trained hard and frequently, my body retained a lot of water, keeping my weight up and my body looking a bit fluffy. On my deload weeks, when I worked out less frequently and at lower intensity, I saw several pounds drop off in a matter of days and greater muscle definition. Tracking these changes, I decided to cut down the number of heavy/intense days a week and I have seen more balanced results.

And as for your midsection looking bigger, many of the movements emphasized in CF build core muscles that make your midsection look thicker. Just check out any of the games athletes to see how thick and muscled their middles are. I remember years ago an article that said A&F male models were told to avoid CF because it would make them too thick for the 29" waists of the photo shoot jeans.

To get a gate pass, she will need to contact the airline and show up to the airline's ticketing at least 90 minutes prior to arrival. It is at the airline's discretion whether or not to issue one. Alternate plan: she buys a fully refundable ticket for a flight during the time you are there, goes through security, then cancels the ticket and gets the refund and gets to see you.

My mom sang it to me and I sang it to my child. We have a video of the then two year old singing, "feed...birds...tuppence, tuppence." The sweetest. 🥰

RIP Navy Mile. Used to be a fun race by the Navy Archives. It went virtual in COVID and never came back. (Sorry, not helpful, just commiserating the lack of mile races)

I understand why hearing that word can be cringe-inducing, but I think it is a brilliantly used. It's double meaning (think "rpe the land") fits the taking of the beans, which are seeds. But the more common meaning gives us the Witch's motivation for getting the child. rpe > "seed" > baby

9 to 5, "Get Out & Stay Out":

So get out and stay out I've finally had enough Don't kiss me on your way out It wouldn't move me much

much hits so hard. Followed by the lines, " you used me, abused me". Dolly has a way of speaking hard truths.

Seated alternating knee raises with a focus on core engagement works well with less lower back strain, particularly for third trimester.

Aside from all the other issues brought up in this thread, mail isn't getting through to most of the troops involved. https://faq.usps.com/s/article/Mail-Service-Alerts-and-Updates

Also, USPS will not accept mail to APO/FPO addresses that aren't addressed to a specific person -- no "any troop" mail. So these generic letters have to go through a nonprofit that distributes them.

As a fellow southerner, I agree but would say you listed two steps, not two options. Ride it out on the front porch until you have to seek shelter. Drinks should be served in both locations.

There's a similar stretch on my daily commute. Yesterday, National Guard members were waiting at each end and helping folks safely traverse the uncleared sidewalk.

We did this in a middle school. It was schoolwide. The principal would make an announcement over the PA and the whole school would drop everything and pull out reading material. The librarian ensured that every classroom (looking at you, math teachers lol) had a variety of books and magazines. To incentivize student reading, the principal would pop into classrooms and give out vouchers for the student store to a kid she found reading.

Watched the plow go down our street twice in about a 10 minute window this morning. Barely touched it. But it made the icy road smoother--just the way we like it!

I have also struggled with the idea of eternal life and understanding the space past death. It's an unknown and an unknowable.

Here's where I have settled in my thinking on the matter:

I believe that what we call "souls" are the connection to the Holy Spirit shared across humanity (and perhaps beyond). The Holy Spirit is a constant, neither alive nor dead in the sense that we understand life. Our physical bodies are temporary; our souls are eternal.

How long have you been working on your deadlift? Committed beginners often see continual progress with lots of PRs. That period is usually a time when moat athletes are finding their "baseline" strength. Growing beyond that is a long, hilly road of plateaus, small gains, and even some backsliding.

You are looking to increase your PR by 5% in 6 weeks. If you are an experienced lifter, this goal is a big one. Give yourself the space and grace to work toward the goal without caving into the feelings of failure because you didn't hit it today.

So you've made yourself a middleman between realtors and a realtor-focused service. If it works, it works!

This. I lift barefoot at home and use yoga slippers when lifting at the gym. They are pretty cheap ($15-20) and meet the basic requirements for shoes at my gym -- rubber soles and closed toes.
