I use this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unitpricecalculator

Get yourself a Unit Price Comparison app for your next shopping trip. It will let you know how much you're paying per oz/lb/kg/ml and tell you which is the better buy. A good app will let you save those prices for future comparison.

A Zoom meeting may not be the most earth-shattering development in the campaign so far, but [Robert Schwartz, founder of the Haley Voters For Biden PAC] said it’s a crucial step for the Biden campaign to gain an edge with this key voting bloc.

Although they may not like a lot of Biden's policies, he is known for working with whomever he needs in order to reach a compromise most can live with.

The California Community College I went to allowed you to filter classes in the schedule by whether they offered ZTC - Zero Textbook Cost or OER - Open Educational Resource.

In the letter, HHS said it was holding Daszak responsible for EcoHealth Alliance’s failure to adequately monitor the activities of the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) and then subsequently failing to report on the lab’s high-risk virus studies.

“The alleged conduct of EHA is imputed to you, because during all or part of the time relevant, you participated in, knew of, or had reason to know of EHA’s improper conduct, through your role as the President of EHA” as well as project director and principal investigator, HHS wrote.

...

EcoHealth and Daszak have come under fire from Republicans and Democrats over the group’s work with the Wuhan lab, particularly regarding controversial “gain of function” research to enhance the ability of the virus to cause disease or make it more transmissible.

Welcome to the "FO" phase of FU&FO.

Here's his justification, so he doesn't have to make one up out of thin air:

On 22 April 1808, during the Finnish War between Sweden and Russia, a Russian army landed on the southeastern shores of Gotland near Grötlingbo. Under command of Nikolai Andreevich Bodisko 1,800 Russians took the city of Visby without any combat or engagement, and occupied the island. A Swedish naval force rescue expedition was sent from Karlskrona under the command of admiral Rudolf Cederström with 2,000 men; the island was liberated and the Russians capitulated. Russian forces left the island on 18 May 1808.

So, you see, it was Russian territory for almost a month.

Its position in the middle of the Baltic Sea and more or less off the coast of Kaliningrad would make it an excellent military outpost from which to control shipping and spy on their neighbors.

In his Truth Social tirade, Mr Trump slammed the August 2022 at his Florida home and private club.

“WOW! I just came out of the Biden Witch Hunt Trial in Manhattan, the ‘Icebox,’ and was shown Reports that Crooked Joe Biden’s DOJ, in their Illegal and UnConstitutional Raid of Mar-a-Lago, AUTHORIZED THE FBI TO USE DEADLY (LETHAL) FORCE.

What's he complaining about? Isn't he the one who said the President can do no wrong?

It may be his address, but it's not his house.

The taxes on the home listed as Steve Garvey’s Palm Desert address are being paid by Sisters in Christ LLC, an organization that includes his sister-in-law as a manager.

The group, based in Utah, has paid $119,203 since 2017 in taxes on the property, according to Riverside County Treasurer-Tax Collector records. Data prior to 2017 was not available. Sisters in Christ is listed as the property owner on tax records as of late March.

WINNING! /s

Shouldn't they add in a list of US states?

Trump needs to submit one first. Taken by an impartial authority. Throw in a proper cognitive test.

Alawode-El asked for abortion pills to end her pregnancy. The CPC didn’t provide abortions, but of course they didn’t tell her that. “They said, ‘We’re out of stock right now, but call us next week.’” She did, and was told they were still out-of-stock and to call again next week. A week passed; she called again. They were still “out of stock.” Three weeks passed—three weeks Alawode-El was forced to remain pregnant when she didn’t want to be, three weeks waiting for something that wasn’t coming. “There was no Google back then,” she told Jezebel. “There was no way for me to get information on what was really going on, where I could really get help.”

That’s the goal of crisis pregnancy centers: To prevent or delay abortion by any means, including with bald-faced lies.

Bearing false witness? How christian of them.

I was just rewatching Midsomer Murders and there's a Russian Blue cat - KillMouski.

How careless do you have to be to just have ammo lying around, unknown to you? Here's a thought, T&C says they'll release them if they lose their right to own a gun in the US?

You give your top talent what they want. The problem is that they hired a consultant to find out what that was. The consultant, knowing on which side his bread was buttered, told the board what they wanted to hear, which is, after all, why they hired a consultant instead of just asking.

Somehow, I find it interesting he lives in Caesarea. The site of the martyrdom of Palestinian Jews. I wonder how Bibi spells irony.

During the Bar Kokhba revolt of 132–135 ce, the Romans tortured and killed the 10 greatest leaders and sages of Palestinian Jewry, including Rabbi Akiba. Caesarea was almost certainly the place of execution of Rabbi Akiba and the others according to tradition (c. 135 ce). The death of these Ten Martyrs is still commemorated in the liturgy for Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement).

Follow the link in the article to his rant about Master Lock. WTF? How is this person allowed three feet away from his caretaker?

You see? They are trainable. You just need to use a big enough rolled up newspaper being wielded by a lawyer.

But if he ordered a member of the military to do it, they are required to refuse illegal orders

But the argument is that if the President orders it, it's not illegal. Nixon tried that and got shot down.
