I grew up in Indiana (when they didn't observe) and it was glorious. The only thing we ever noticed was that all our summer TV shows were 'central time'.
Yes, the biggest question we would have is if we were the on the same time as New York or Illinois. And it would get dark enough in the summer earlier so kids could catch lightening bugs. Now it doesn't start getting dark until 10pm here on the western side of Indiana.
That is one of the biggest problems in mental health treatment, people confuse the form of depression of 'my job sucks, and I am lonely' temporary moods with 'I have not interest in the things i like to do, and feel depressed even when I'm with the people I want to be with, and don't want to get out of bed' clinical depression. The first is just a mood and will change if the job improved/get a new job, and you find people to socialize (in person) with. The second is a real illness that needs to be medically treated, no different that cancer. Telling a clinically depressed person to just get a hobby, go outside a be with people and they will feel better is the same as telling a person with cancer to think positive thoughts and drink this herbal tea and they will feel better. Mental illness is a real illness and we need to remove the stigma associated with it, like any other illness.
The thing that I've wondered about is: how did the public respond to the warning? I mean, you can run the test drill to check out the equipment all day long, but when people know it's just a test they will probably kind of just ignore the warning, when you know it's just a drill people just to go through the motions of what is expected of them. If this had been a real incident, how was the public supposed to respond, and did they do that correctly? I think people are too focused on pointing fingers and trying to place blame, when they could use this as a learning experience to see how well the public responded had this been a real incident.
The schools may have aid to offer the poorer students, but the poorer kids probably never even consider going to one of these schools, simply because they cost so much before any aid would be awarded. If the student doesn't think they would be able to afford to go to the local state school, they aren't even going to consider moving across the country to attend an ivy league school. And would their teachers or guidance counselors even suggest to these students that they could possibly go to one of these schools and know that there might be ways for it to be affordable. The schools having the endowments and donations to use are great, but not sure if those that should know about them actually do know about them.
I share an office with another person (with a cubicle dividing wall between us, finally), and while I do get along with him, some days the constant sighing just wears on my nerves (like today, now). So loud, even my headphones with Rammstein playing doesn't drown it out. When he's not sighing constantly, he usually has his ear buds in with bagpipe music so loud I can hear it over my music. Very distracting. I had an office to myself for several years, which was awesome, close the door, have music over the speakers. I miss those days.
I'm working on the same project with our family photos (although I'm actually doing all the scanning myself) and I am using the metadata to store the details of the photos, as well as an Excel spreadsheet with the filename and details. I'm not really too worried about the metadata getting removed or file getting renamed. Not sure what a good third option would be either. the most important part of the process is actually getting everything digitized and indexed in some way, as someone else mentioned, at some point your looking at a photo and no one knows who those people are and nothing was written on the back.
Of course, a loser like Leonard marrying Penny might be an indication of jumping the shark, too. The only nerds getting women that attractive are the rich ones.
I couldn't finish the first book in the Baroque Cycle; the first two sections were fine, but the last section of that book just drug! Never bothered to purchase the next two books in the series. Anathema was good, just took some time to get into the world he was creating; again the ending of his books need some work, I don't think I could tell you how Anathema ended. But good book. Reamde was a good read as well. Hopefully this new book will be worth reading.
What I find unreasonable about barring the fuel is the availability of food sources and fresh clean drinking water not to mention the endless supply of ammo that one would assume would have been used up within the first few days, weeks, months of infection let alone a few years.
They probably get the batteries from the same place they keep getting this years new cars. Every time I see one of the new vehicles I think of factories in Korea (Hyundai) filled with zombie workers pumping out new cars.
Another thing that kinda irks me is when they do supply runs, and search through say a house, why are they being so picky about only getting the specific item they are looking for? I would be raiding the cabinets, drawers and closets of any vacant house I would go into searching, taking as much as I could carry, especially when there is a whole group you are trying to support. And the stores, clear the shelves. Take everything you can carry.
We had our insurance guy from work speak to us (I work in a healthcare environment, and several of our clients may be eligible for ACA or have questions about it) and he had mentioned that when he met with our state government, they were told that they were going to have to get their insurance through the 'marketplace'. But I've seen several other people here state that Congress was exempt, made me question if I had heard our guy correctly. I'm glad to hear someone state otherwise (and truth). When you hear the same lie over, and over, it makes you question what you think is the truth.

Just old people in Korea.

Well, not without HR getting on you about it not being professional....
I think it might have been better if the kid would have just said "Everything", then had the iPad logo. And I'm not an Apple user.
Does Affinity Photo have a Bridge type interface so you can view your images to decide which ones you want to process?

Their tin roof was probably still rusted.
Thank $deity that I'm not the only one who thinks of that when I hear his name...
In Korea only old people live to be 90.

So, in your back pocket?

Actually, Penny makes more than him.
Don't forget about the abominations of wearing clothing of mixed fibers, or yoking your oxen to your ass.

Only old people from Korea expire jokes.
