I use a $170 mini PC I bought two years ago with a gamer keyboard and mouse. I'm hard on keyboards but the gamer keyboard holds up better. 24 inch monitors have come down in price. |

How can it be overdiagnosed if you can't even see a doctor? "Penny wise and pound foolish" Yes, you can save money by with-holding treatment but you lose much more in productivity and health problems caused by self harm. Drug use would be far less with proper attention and treatment. Even ... |

They seem willing to make executive orders that are likely to be struck down by the courts. But, that takes time and money to sort out. Lots of money for the lawyers. In previous administrations, each case would have teams of lawyers representing the government. Now, there are so many cases they see... |

I knew someone who did this. He had a house in the greater Boston area and took a job in Hartford.
A discount from the usual hotel rates can often be negotiated.
I used to stay at the same place in Manchester Vermont a couple weekends a year. |

I've walked into Target, decided there were too many people, and left to come back another day. I wear high fidelity ... |

Should you trust something published in Cosmopolitan magazine?
It has a huge print readership in the demographic that men want to date. As well as very profitable online presence. This allows it to pay more than anyone else for quality content. |
