This crew really loves being on their knees for Bell. He hasn't done THAT much.

He didn't interfere with the player.
The act of putting your hands up without looking back is textbook interference.

Did they get rid of the DPI by putting up you're hand without playing the ball? That was Mosley's pass break up.

Daboll: “Down 14....time to establish the run”
That's to calm Josh down. He's likely to go play Favre ball. It's only 2 scores

That's a great catch

So if they call OPI, can the Bills challenge the holding the entire route?

Unions are most certainly not a cancer. Their main problem is that they make it too hard to fire a crappy worker. Grievances, 10 strike and your out discipline plans, only willing to work at a certain station or certain job, things like that. It would seem obvious to me that a well run union would be open to easily getting rid of the "bad" workers. It would improve the operations of their companies, potentially leading to more revenues/profits, higher pay/benefits, less offshoring, more jobs. Instead, they are mostly too consumed with keeping their dues high, to the detriment of their "good" worker members. Unions are a good idea, that is often executed very poorly and with some obvious corruption.
As far as this article goes. I studied unions at undergrad, took many labor law courses there as well as in grad school. I never came across a scenario where a company was punishing someone for talking unionization while they were working there AFTER they were no longer employed there. I'm not sure if that is illegal or not, really. Certainly it would be if they were working there and were retaliated against, but AFTER, that's a different animal that I have not heard of before.
First bolded point-Just cause isn't "too hard" to prove. What I have seen is that employers will not take the necessary steps and document. This is to make sure that ALL employees are treated the same way. Just think about your place of employment, you know the workers that could get away with murder.
Second bolded point- every employee has the right to Union representation. That's not to say that unions aren't aware that there are bad apples. It's not as "easy" as you propose to "get rid of" them.
Third bolded point- How many concessionary contracts will it be necessary for a Union to take before the workers become fed up. The corporate system is set up to pay the top executives exorbitant salaries to make the Wall Street investors more money, on the backs of the working class. Unions aren't in the game to increase Union dues for plush salaries. They are forced to increase dues because of rising costs for arbitrations etc. Just ask a local representative if their monetary compensation is worth the time they spend on Union issues. (We're talking stewards, chairs, and local presidents who don't have release).

I fully expected it to be and article about the immediate bowel movement that happens when you eat there.
Maybe GC needs to buy those Charmin giant toilet paper rolls!

I hate these stories that are "blaming" millennials. I know that Charmin is making that statement, but it's just absurd to say it's all the millennials fault. Charmin is making the statement because that generation is quickly uprooting the baby-boomers.
All products that cater to all ages with make millennial claims now, it's their largest target. The re-release of products that were popular 20-35 years ago is a direct target to the millennials heart strings of their youth. (This is hardly a new concept)

Just saw a replay. That is the most blatant thing I have seen. (Yes I realize intent doesn't matter, but at full speed it was obvious). Wow. That needs to be reviewable, no doubt. Really though, I don't care if it's the third OT of game 7 of the finals, that needs to be called. It's just like Offside for a linesman. Hand passes are not a usual put your whistle in your pocket non call.

This feels like it has the beginnings of a hit piece on the county executive. However, they are using the turf because it has a direct financial impact in the area. Maybe the study has some merit. It really means an injury, no clue on extent, per game. I don't think that the Bills will stop using a local source any time soon.

OMG I have to order one of these next year!So we had it tonight. It was sweet with a different buttery taste. Almost like butterscotch. The head definitely defrosts faster than the body. It was more of an anteater by the time we had it.

For dessert we have a Lake Effect Ice Cream butter lamb ice cream cake.
I was told that they stopped at 900 pre-orders. Lake effect didn't expect that kind of response!

Straining the limits of machine and man

I've got a desperate plan

Imo I would double down on offense and expect a d lineman to make it to 9. Possible 3 QBs in the top 10. I dont see Beane trading 9 and something else. That's what it would take for OBJ. Howard imo can be replicated with a 3rd rd pick in this draft.
If Garafolo is right about OBJ to Browns, we'll soon see what the cost for OBJ was.

It's not my style. That doesn't mean it doesn't have a small niche. I know some people who would love this kind of music.

2 abstracts of some articles of the efficacy of SMILE v LASIK.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28486721
tldr; LASIK outperformed SMILE in all visual acuity testing at the 3 month mark. No discussion on side effects. Published May '17
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28486720
tldr; at 6 months, LASIK has better predictability than SMILE. Published May '17

First off the loss of life is tragic.
I had not heard of the SMILE technology as compared to LASIK until that article. That's not too surprising since I had my surgery about 12 years ago (it was so worth it for me).
The SMILE technique is still newer, but it doesn't seem too complicated. It's unfortunate we won't know the true reason for her dry eyes. Considering the flap method of LASIK vs the 4mm incision of the SMILE, I would bet big money that the greater surface area of injury to the cornea would lead to drier eyes.
Also, fun fact that I haven't looked up to see if it's true through 2018, but through 2017 in all of the LASIK procedures preformed in the US there was not one single case of loss of vision! (Save for the few moments your vision is black during the correction). That's a lot of surgeries! LASIK was first introduced in 1991.
The Safety. What did I miss?

Not trying to say that the refs tried to give it to the home team, but the spots by the line judges were poor for the Bills the entire game. The 3rd down QB sneak and the safety, plus the 4th down Bell gain are the ones that stuck out.
