Combat troops deployed has come, largely, by letting the world devolve into strife; unemployment rate is down, but workforce participation is also way down; GDP growth is up, but still way below what’s “normal,” uninsured rate is down, but cost of that insurance/price of deductibles is way up (is having insurance…

I go the other way. I work until 5:30-6:30 PM, fight traffic, get home between 6:00-7:00, spend time with the family until kids are asleep by 9, I’m asleep by 10, then I’m up at 3:30, off to gym by 4:30, finish workout by 6:00, in the office before 7. So I have 3:30 to 6:30, or so, all to myself.

A. Who woulda thunk the Aussies do the Derby, but with more debauchery and, apparently, booze...
B. I’ve always associated Australia with attractive women. Not so much, now.

Dude, you should know by now that men are only allowed to acknowledge the attractiveness of a woman if she tells him to tell her she’s attractive, but only if he also adds one or more of: “strong” “smart” “powerful” “empowered” “brilliant” or some such.

10s of 1000s of the emails were deleted before the server was handed over to the FBI but, if the mail client on the laptop was running, the deleted emails were archived on the laptop- at least the ones involving Huma’s address, even if she sent/received them on other devices like her own laptop or smart phone.

This is…

If she set up the default email client on the computer- Outlook if it’s a Windows machine, Mail for an OS machine- it would have connected to the Clinton Mail server and downloaded copies of every email Huma sent or received, even from other devices.

So those 10s of 1000s of emails which were deleted and not turned…

And one reason the federal government, generally, and State Department, specifically, didn’t allow the use of private email for government business or even the use of private devices for government email.

No. The new President/former VP then nominates someone for his former post that is then confirmed by majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

It all has do with the expectation of privacy. If a reasonable person would expect, in a given location and circumstance, to have privacy, surreptitiously recording him is illegal. If you’ll notice, in many jurisdictions they now place signs up warning of the security cameras.

Waco? Sounds like Waco. Wouldn’t be indicative of other college towns in Texas.

She was charged with Minor in Possession and DWI. That’s pretty much the gambit, here. Just having an accident isn’t, in and of itself, reckless driving, and cops won’t normally charge it unless they actually see the reckless driving themselves.

As someone else mentioned, it’s an actual travesty that the U.S. (Jimmy Carter) banned recycling of spent fuel into new fuel. Would reduce waste material immensely and provide more fuel.

I don’t think Volvo explicitly makes its wagon for police purposes. Though that might not be a bad idea. Or a Mercedes wagon- heck, they already make them for ambulances.

Part of this has to be because one-bedroom apartments are typically built in cities, land in cities is a valuable commodity and far more expensive, while land in suburbia, where people want 3-car garages, is much more available and less expensive.

For the life of me, I can’t fathom why anyone would want to live in the…

So, would you ask the banks to basically write off billions of dollars in foreclosed loans and give these houses to homeless people? If the end result of issuing a mortgage, homeowner defaults, and foreclosing on said mortgage, is writing off mortgage by giving the seized home to others for free, either home mortgage…

Few Departments picked the Taurus. Apparently, not a whole lot more money to go to the Explorer, and you get more space.

Saw a whited out one between Kyle and San Marcos on I-35 on Saturday. No logos or department identifiers, but distinguishable for the spotlight and extra antennas on the trunk.

I find it worth it for the ability to get a snack or another beer without getting up.

I’m looking to buy something in the $45K to $55K range (Tundra, F150, Tahoe) at the end of the year and will be trading in my beater- $3K- and dropping $10-12K cash for downpayment. I would be comfortable with a low interest rate for 72-84 months, at that point.

All these people really need something like an Alamo Drafthouse...they are serious about a. no children in most movies, b. no checking your cellphone, and c. no noise. They will kick you out, you won’t get a refund, and you will be banned. They also do reserved seats.
