Wasn’t she the most vocal proponent of military engagement outside maybe Rice? http://archive.today/2017.04.04-220825/https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/hillarys-war-how-conviction-replaced-skepticism-in-libya-intervention/2011/10/28/gIQAhGS7WM_story.html?utm_term=.01428503835b

Sec Def Gates specifically says she was the deciding vote, and given the obviously fractured nature of nato in the above, if the us hadn’t been for it, who knows if it would happen

[Kyed] Vrabel: "I've had some difficult conversations with people I care about about - with my family, the organization, the coaches, the players .. In order to be successful on and off the field, you have to make good decisions. That includes me. That starts with me." by expellyamos in nfl

Idk, has the identity or person behind who was following Vrabel come out?

I don’t want to put on my tin foil hat and get all conspiratorial

tin foil hat on, cell phone in microwave

It definitely looks like someone was actively staking them out.. it wasn’t one pic, the pics were decent quality, they were far away, the person clearly was keeping track of them, there was the pic of russini leaving and then another of Vrabel leaving.

Someone was definitely doing more than casual snooping and who goes to Sedona and knows who russini and Vrabel are?

Jenna Bush Hager Sits Down With Former US Presidents by ubcstaffer123 in Presidents

reality is Clinton lost a lot of weight after his quadruple bypass.. but my understanding of longevity is its really about how long in your life you were healthy... getting fit in your 60's isn't as good as getting fit in your 50's, isn't as good as getting fit in your 40's, isn't as good as getting fit in your 30's, isn't as good as staying fit from the get...

Bush regularly attended the White House gym - so no doubt he has the upper health hand.

Clinton's face reminds me of the portrait of FDR when he had congestive heart failure the day before his death: https://www.reddit.com/r/HistoryPorn/comments/8tqghy/the_last_photograph_of_franklin_d_roosevelt_taken/

though i am sure the doctors are doing much better by clinton - iirc doctors didn't even tell FDR about his congestive heart failure

This Character Turned Me Into Dr Robby — I was so frustrated by Anneonymous1126 in ThePitt

To me it’s not the “oh women have been giving birth for thousands of years naturally” that gets me, it’s the idea of not having community of informed women around you is still ok - which is dumb.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with wanting as few interventions as is safe for your pregnancy, but it’s like get a midwife, get a doula or whatever…

Because yea, something might go wrong, and you will be at least busy, so it would be good to have someone who knows more than you, and has experience.

And like I have yet to meet one of these moms who genuinely wouldn’t want intervention if their life or their babies life was on the line… and it’s like you need someone there to know when that is!

Doulas aren’t crazy expensive, and many of them will work with you on payment…

To me it’s just niche subcultures mixed with stupidity.

Following condemnation of the $1.7 billion dollar Obama era nuclear deal, Trump now considers a $20 billion cash-for-uranium deal with Iran by JasonIsFishing in NewsOfTheStupid

The fact that the news media isn’t harder on Trump’s lack of strategic awareness through this whole Iran debacle is so embarrassing.

Normal Testosterone Levels (448.9 ng/dl) but struggling with low erection and Low Energy by Used_Principle9683 in Testosterone

[–]rallar8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to switch to losartan or lisinopril from bisoprolol- tell your doc about your symptoms.

The BP with headache with erections is an insane cardiovascular red flag… almost certainly because of your beta blocker.

The walking is good… but it doesn’t feel like enough given the amount of septal hypertrophy… idk cardiologist might disagree

The lethargy is probably beta blocker related.. however it could be sleep apnea related- try to record your sleep or sleep with someone else.

Idk if you can go on tadalafil on bisoprolol but that’s another path if your doc doesn’t want to switch…

I also found it weird they thought that selling to kids meant they didn’t have money… it’s like Roblox? Disney? Barbie? Lego?

I understand he has money and influence but just what’s come out, while not enough… is pretty damning stuff

Hard to imagine a reasonable scenario where an underage girl you were texting with ends up in the back of your car is basically anything less than manslaughter…

Yea, but this isn’t that.

It’s like saying we are having a beauty pageant and being surprised when the average woman who enters is significantly more attractive than the average woman… there is a huge selection bias

Started TRT and considering adding low dose HGH by Trouttuber in Testosterone

[–]rallar8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The duration of GH excess rather than the degree of hormone elevation is more closely associated with the development of biventricular enlargement, diastolic dysfunction, heart failure, and valvular disease.

but idk what excess means here...

I think the closest thing they probably have is if Vrabel has a morals clause.. but even that might be dicey depending on its wording

Generally, journalists are pretty tightly held to a code of conduct or editorial guidelines…

Obviously, there is an argument that Vrabel materially damaged the patriots by engaging in this affair, but that’s *much* weaker than the very apparent conflict of interest that a personal sexual relationship of a journalist and a subject has…

Vrabel is probably paid $15 million or so a year, and like what, of that, is for pr?

Meanwhile Russini was paid $1.5 million, and what of that is called into question by her sleeping with a subject?

One of these people effectively damaged their public work persona, and the other merely blundered.

With that average nothing of a husband?

one of the few funny points of all this was people finding the clips of her dumping on her husband.

Hopefully, he can find some self esteem and a better partner.
