Looks like google's doing their google thing right now, and they are in the process of removing reviews from yesterday. If you want a review to not be censored, you'll need to mark your calendar (or use a different account) for a few weeks/months from now. Always good to put some blah blah blah about beer and mix in some 2-star reviews to fight the algorithms and call center workers.

If it were uncooked, I would say automatically throw it out. Bacteria grows on uncooked meat for a long time until you cook it, and then after cooking, the toxins are the concern. In your oven, with cooked meat, you can assume you started from nearly zero bacteria. I'm not sure how much bacteria could even get into the oven and the foil after cooking, but it's not completely air tight. I'm sure some small count worked it's way in, to add to any that were still there that you didn't kill in cooking. It will then start to multiple until you cook it, and then it will release its own toxins. The latter example is much tougher to get sick on, but this is something you simply can't google. Everything will say immediately throw it out after 2 hours because they have nothing to lose by saying that. Food poisoning is more of a concern in how the food was stored and prepared before cooking. This is one where most people know the actual answer, but just don't say it.

Wow. At first I thought they were issuing a statement to apologize for the behaviors of their coaching staff, and how those selfish acts impacted the students and fanbase. But no, they are laying blame on others. Classless.

A home vs an away series with any SEC team is always night and day. Many folks and polls often don’t do a great job at applying that.
Would make sense if it were the same as the COLA for recipients. However, the limit is outpacing COLA in an attempt to justify "fixing" the system.

Any chance your employer will let you do an in-plan Roth conversion in your 401k, and let you contribute after tax dollars? This lets you contribute to a Roth past the $23,500 before tax limit.

I'm just glad Americans are starting to see the corruption. The last election renewed my faith in the common sense of most people. He is too cognitively impaired to run for office again, and he no longer can even speak in public, but he's signing pardons and executive orders. Corruption is as corruption does.
re: Company sponsored ROTH vs. 401k

A commonly overlooked factor in the traditional vs Roth discussion is state tax, in relation to where you currently live vs retirement destination. For example, if you currently work in TX, but plan to retire in LA, you may want to choose 100% Roth. Often people go the other direction because they work or claim residency in the taxing state, but it's definitely something to consider particularly on this board. To note, unless it's a federal pension, LA hits retirement pay the same as current income. Neighboring states like TX and MS have no tax on retirement funds. A good example option would be to work and reside in TX and fully fund Roth without paying state tax, and then retire in LA where you take all your Roth funds out tax free.
Another side benefit of Roth vs traditional is you can effectively save more for retirement in the Roth, if you want to maximize the annual savings limit. In the traditional case, your $23k annual tax free savings grows and then gets taxed and reduced downward from the final value. In the Roth case, you start with a number greater than $23k that gets reduced down to $23k added to savings each year. From there, your balance grows and is never reduced. In the example of a 25% effective tax rate, you would have a pile that is 33% greater in the Roth.
Again, you still have the base premise/estimate of what tax bracket you'll be in prior and post retirement.

I hope he wins that one. Would be fantastic.

Thanks for all of the suggestions everyone. I ran the cat 6 and coax out of the attic. Just waiting to trench for water line and I’ll throw my cables in the trench and see what happens. If I have grounding problems then I can easily install some p2p radios. Appreciate the help!
Sounds like you are well on your way, but I'll just add to this. This is definitely different, but it's a data point for reference. I ran 150' direct burial cat6 in my attic. It was pretty cheap on amazon, and you never know if something may try to chew through it or you might damage it. It's just a little tough to bend at the ends, but it wasn't a problem. I ran the EAP610 wireless AP with an TL-SG1005P POE switch. It all works flawlessly. Underground presents different issues, but I would think you're more likely not to have an issue. I did this because because I didn't want to fight signal boosters, radios, etc. They likely have come a long way, but the early ones were pretty bad.
I would also put them in a conduit, add a spare, and also leave some room if you want to pull something else through there or repurpose it. I wish I would have done this on my house now.
There can be a rule where if a trainer has to enter the field, the player comes out for the drive, or quarter. If you are that hurt that you need medical assistance, it should be serious enough to sit a quarter. Gotta take health seriously. If you get up on your own, whistle doesn't blow. If you blow the whistle for player down, trainers have to come out, and player has to sit out.

re: Would a new ruling negating a review when a player goes down with an injury…
Posted by Newgene on 10/13/24 at 8:01 am to Hangover Haven
There's a lot of different things that can be done, but ultimately, you have to call it out as fake to separate it from legitimate injuries. The only way to get them to stop may be to a take a one team faking an injury on every single play of the game following the screw job game. Then, just say, "My players were hurt. Who are you to say they weren't, regardless of what it clearly looked like on video." After the 16 hour game, they might do something.
