If you're interested in travel to Mexico, what I've been cooking or eating, etc, check out my Instagram. I reserve twitter for traffic rants, Blazers fandom, retweets of interesting news items, and the occasional trolling these days and little else.

Scientists have a right to give their opinions on policy. Doesn't make it smart. The problem is that if scientists set themselves as authorities on policy, rather than just science, they risk losing credibility on science when their opinions on policy turn out to be wrong.

Court in Ixtlan de Juarez, Oaxaca, Mexico, a two hour drive up one lane mountain roads to 7000 feet. Note that in the mural the trophy winning baller gets equal billing next to the Mexican president the town is named in honor of.

Fraud is not protected. If they asserted something was the case and it wasn't, then you should hold them accountable. It's possible that there would be penalties beyond the cost of the vehicle, too. Have a mechanic confirm the bodywork. File official complaints. Attorney letter.

The minimum wage for CEOs in Texas is also $7.25/hour. Doesn't mean that's the actual starting pay for them or McDonald's workers. eg, here is the starting pay for a Texas gas station chain.

Maybe you've been out of touch or maybe you're just an idiot, but they had several injuries, including Nurkic out the entire season until the bubble and they had to win four in a row to overtake the 8th seed. It's called pride. Most teams would have just gone fishing.

Texas Monthly's BBQ editor proclaims Portland the best Texas BBQ scene outside of Texas.
There isn’t a city outside of Texas with a more complete Texas BBQ scene than Portland, Oregon. Find plenty of smoked brisket, Thai/Texas BBQ, BBQ tacos, fancy steakhouse BBQ, and even the Holy Trinity.

The only coward is Kyrie for not being willing to discuss what he actually believes with the press. He's hiding in the locker room as the team fires Nash to create a distraction from the racist lies that Kyrie promotes, such as holocaust denial.

Pedestrian malls aren't why people aren't going downtown or why businesses are moving out. I have no problem with pedestrian malls but the first priority needs to be making downtown safe and inviting for businesses, workers, and customers. This can be coupled with helping people.

8 hrs a day? Traditionally cooks are working more like 12 hrs a day. There's a reason a lot of cooks are young. It wears on you. I did a consulting gig in Florida last year where I was working over 100 hrs a week in a kitchen. I just stayed in bed all day when I got a day off.

Thinking about starting a "CSA" where one of my staff makes a heat and serve meal from her native town in Mexico and customers "subscribe" for delivery once a month or so. All unique stuff from Oaxaca, Morelos, Michoacan, etc, not on our menu or many others in Portland.

So you think Jerusalem was considered a holy city by the Arabs before Mohammed was born? Beyond that, the Arabic article "al" doesn't come into existence until hundreds of years after Israel.

They didn't "choose". It grew out of an organic set of circumstances: Naval research, Stanford research, the inability to enforce non-competes in California, etc. The anti-development movements overtook the area after the groundwork was already established for Silicon Valley.

I think they're focusing on making riders feel safe, the primary fear of riders and one of the main reasons they don't use public transit more. That you think this is "ugly" is a core problem for Portland and why its ability to govern is broken.
