Please forgive this rare vanity, but I read the news every day (I avoid Pravda), but I have seen nothing about early voting that has been going on for awhile in Virginia. Has anybody seen evidence of heavy early voting in Republican districts, perhaps, or trends?

[H/T Fractal Trader]ransomnote: Below the line near the bottom of this threadpost is a telegram post which only those in the private group or channel can share. The Telegram post links and identifies portions of a July 21, 2021 FDA document, once again confirming that the "Covid" test was designed to identify some other virus, not Covid-19. The fact that the FDA used some other virus to 'mimic' Covid-19 clinicly is obviously wrong on so many levels - but just the fact that the CDC/FAUCI lied and said Covid-19 was 'novel' (unique) and none of us would have any immunity...

Therefore, I must inform you that...

Its latest report accounts for voluntary departures from over 50 U.S. enterprise companies and upwards of 500,000 employees across industries. While many employee surveys throughout 2021 forecast the share of people intending to quit, like a PwC survey indicating 65% of people were looking for a new job as of August, Visier data from January to August finds an annualized rate of 25% of people actually quit their job this...

During America's chaotic exit from Afghanistan earlier this year, the Biden administration issued a directive that evacuation flights be filled to "excess" with refugees who had not been properly vetted before arriving in America, according to an internal administration communication disclosed on Tuesday by Sen. Josh Hawley (R., Mo.). "Total inflow to the U.S. must exceed the number of seats available. Err on the side of excess," reads an Aug. 16 email to U.S. officials involved in the exit from Afghanistan. "This guidance provides clear discretion and direction to fill seats and to provide special consideration for women and children...

The carbohydrate-insulin model of obesity offers a new way to conceptualize energy balanceA conceptual illustration of the complex mathematics of potato chips, a cupcake, bread slices, a donut. The First Law of Thermodynamics, formulated in the 1800s, says that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. For the human body, this principle of physics means that if you consume more calories than you burn (or excrete), the excess is stored in the body (mainly as fat). Variations on this "energy balance" principle form the foundations for how we think about, and treat, obesity. For example, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans...
