Reading the article is interesting: Sushi's only consistent ingredient is rice - since it can be made with fish, octopus, vegetables, fruits or eggs - and it's all sushi. However, the origins of sushi come from pickling excess fish with fermenting rice, which would preserve the fish. The rice was discarded and the resulting fish was called sushi (literally translates to "sour tasting") - so despite rice being the important part of the dish, the word comes from a pickled fish.

(for those too lazy to read it: that picked fish was eaten for hundreds of years before, in the 16-800s, it started to be served pressed into a mound of rice. It wasn't until the 1820s that the pickled fish was replaced with fresh fish and the nigirizushi we know today was born courtesy of chef Hanaya Yohei.)

It's really a personal thing - and for heavy live tv watchers, you don't always save money - since there are pretty good bundle deals and having multiple streaming services starts to really add up. Figure out what the cost of internet alone is, subtract that from your current rate and that's your budget to spend on streaming services.

Make sure you check with your cell phone provider to see if any services are already provided for free with your account. Verizon's higher tier unlimited plans come with a few services.

One small savings is the modem; with bundled services you often can't purchase your own router, but when you go just internet, you usually can. That means about $10 a month towards a much higher end router.

A lot of the local stations are still broadcast over the air. If your house has an old antenna, some work amazingly. You can also purchase newer style ones. In Columbia, often the "roof top" antennas are mounted in the attic, so see if you already have one. It's not a great solution, but if you're like me and just want the broadcast for a few things a year, it's better than paying for streaming services.

Remember that you don't need to keep paying for your services every month. Cancel in the off season, or between series you follow.

I swung by it the other day: Opening early november (they are already stocking up). To get to it, take the ramp to the second level of parking and head to the far side of the lot. They have walled off this part of the upper floor, so you can only get there from the outside now I believe.

Process of elimination:

Black - all shadows and anyone with dark hair is not transparent.

White - really pale people, your eyes, apper are all now transparent.

Red - If you blush or are a bit sunburned, you're now semi-transparent.

Yellow/Orange/Purple - all have a ton of different shades so are harder to key on (with older set ups).

Blue and Green are pretty commonly used. Blues though are pretty common in both genders for clothing - though some news sets will have more than one screen to allow the presenter a choice in clothing.

Green also gets bonus points for reflecting light really well from artificial light sources.

Now - you might point out that we have really powerful computers and lights you can set to any frequency you want now. So - honestly - we could use ANY background we want as a "green screen". And, we totally can. Heck, programs like Zoom can identify things in the background and just get rid of them without even taking color into account. However, we continue to use green because it's just what we've always used and technicians, wardrobe and presenters are used to the quirks, so it's more common.

The signing up for a bunch of lists is to spam your inbox in hopes you miss the fraudulent purchase warning.

It doesn't hurt to call the non emergency police number and see what they say.

I would take down the addresses from the post though. Odds are, while it's a local theft, they chose those addresses because they know the person is away or can otherwise intercept the box.

I agree it wasn't coded racism - but the people who believe Columbia is becoming less safe (who this ad plays to) are racist in general (judging by the Nextdoor and Facebook comments under articles). So - he might not be racist, but he's happy to court their vote.

'He made the calculation: The biggest complaint a lot of people had about Kittleman was that he was basically giving the greenlight to anything developers wanted. By turning down the campaign contributions, any time the damage he did while Exec his supporters can just say "He's not accepting Developer money, so that's not true." That was worth more than developer money. Personally I'm not falling for it - but I can see how that would sway some people who aren't impressed by Calvin Ball and don't realize some of the issues they attribute to Ball are directly the result of Kittleman.

I agree - I don't think it's racism (coded or otherwise) in the advertisement. That said - the idea that Columbia is getting more dangerous does have serious racist undertones when you look at the comments section on Nextdoor or Facebook anytime a crime happens. I do think Kittleman is tapping into that sentiment and fear stoking - but that is what his base wants.

It's somewhat depressing that Balls' rebuttal add is effectively "I've increased the police force, Columbia isn't unsafe - and hey democrats - I spent money on education." Personally, I was hoping for more from Ball the last few years - but the answer isn't Kittleman who I think caused a lot of issues that we will probably be unraveling decades from now.

I saw a relatively new 500k+ townhouse (and this was 6 years ago) with a newly remodeled kitchen... and the stove was on an outside wall, with a vent going outside, and the hood was just installed wrong so the air circulated. After installing a new fan over my stove, I now know exactly what they had done wrong, and it was pure laziness (not even cost).

That's average speed. Most of the US won't get that, and even the places that do, most households won't have access to it. Considering the large swath of rural and poorer urban areas with dsl still counting as "Broadband" (or not even having that) it will take a lot more to bring up our average. The solution isn't faster speeds: most people don't even need 100 mbps (let alone 1 gig or even 10), what we need is better connectivity for the skipped over places

The solution: make highspeed Internet a protected utility like electricity or water. Allow any community to run their own ISP, and set up templates and support at a national level.

Price is a really important consideration

Yeah, when I first moved to the area I REALLY wanted to live there but there wasn't any availability.

Oella Mills (outside old EC) has gas.

Make sure any place you get that has a gas stove hs externally venting fans for the stove and oven. It's not uncommon for apartments to cheap out on that, but in small enclosed area (like an apartment) that can be really unhealthy.

What's your budget?

Are you worrying about schools?

Do you prefer someplace quiet or nearer to stuff?

Do you want to have access to the trails for running biking or do you not really care?

How much space do you need/want?

This is like saying what's a good place to get food...

I came across harsher than I meant, edited.

If you're at all on the fence about who you're voting for:

Adler wants to follow the republican (trump era) plan of eroding confidence in public education - accusing educators of having "an agenda" (as if it's monolith). We all know that "agenda" is that we shouldn't discriminate against LGBTQ communities and science is real.

Chen: At first I thought he was just an old school conservative - but his comments at the board of ed debate were really disturbing. He referred to the FARM program as "addictive" and encouraged kids to graduate off of it.

Dan Newburger has nuance and a deep wonky understanding of our county's education system.His answers to show an ability to separate how he wishes things were done with the pragmatic approach of what should be done.

McKoy: I'm not excited by her answers to a lot of the questions - but she has a Masters degree from Johns Hopkins in secondary education and is a former teacher. She doesn't seem to shy away from work, so she has my vote.

1 most countries host marathons, not just the richest.

2 Just pointing out there is probably a reason the majority of marathons are I'm City centers or are small.

3 Burning man is 9 days long, and incredibly expensive to attend since you have to mostly self cater. There are marathons like this (remote and self reliant) but can only host so many runners.

4 it doesn't shut down the city for the day, most have cut offs for runners by early afternoon and a lot of the course opens up after the runners go by.

1: we are number 63 in population density, so we barely make the button third.

2: Canada, Australia and New Zealand all host marathons in urban centers and are much less densely populated than us.

Low population density areas don't have infrastructure to host 10s of thousands of people at a time that will then leave the next day. They also tend to have roads you can't bypass at all, a shortage of hotels and smaller police forces to deal with the crowds.

Family of four in a house - and we don't really eat out - so a ton of dishes; we paid 135 for our last bill over 3 months. This is extraordinarily high.

If you're billed off an estimate, that algorithm might be broken or just being influenced by a previous tenant who did hydroponic farming?

If you're sub-metered - you want to contact the water company to check for a leak (you just shut off all your water and see if the reading keeps going up - really easy when we used to have meters you could see - harder now).

I would start by talking to your landlord though.

If someone has an aggressive dog I would expect them to step aside when people approach and have the dog under physical control. If I'm with small kids or a dog, I would expect the universal sign of holding the collar or shortening the leash to let me know I should give them extra space.

I don't expect them stay off the trails all together. That is ridiculous.

I hope they are doing something to address the aggressiveness, but it can be difficult with some dogs and in certain situations.

Some great suggestions here - another option is Corner Stable. The fries are basic, but if you don't get them to go, quite good.

Bon Fresco has a number of sandwiches for under 10 bucks. They're pretty bulky, so you don't need anything else for lunch. You can stay under $10 a person for the soup/salad combos, but I've never tried the soups.

Ma's kettle also has sandwiches that come with chips on the side if I remember correctly.

Can you make a print of this gif then make a gif of that printed gif of a gif?

This is completely out of left field - but a friend of a friend I'm connected with through facebook is running a queer friendly baking and boudoir class for a small handful of people.

Not all my scene - but if it is yours, you might find this to be fun and I will vouch for the photographer as being a genuinely awesome woman.

In this climate, you might want to put a /s after that comment before someone reads this and thinks "that's a great idea"...
