re: The list of toxic baby formulas. They all need to be recalled.

I’d also like to see studies done on it connecting this to possible autism
When a mother eats too much processed food when she's pregnant, and then follows that up with toxic baby formula and toxic baby food products, there's definitely an argument that it would potentially contribute to autism.
Children's neural network begins to develop when they are in utero (which is why so many pregnant women are recommended to get a lot of folic acid when they're pregnant). Neural development continues out of the womb as well, so if you can feed the mother organic foods (if she's breast feeding), then the baby gets the benefit, as well.

This is old news. It's one of the reasons why my wife and I decided to breastfeed and make our own baby food. It saved us a lot of money, and we didn't have to worry about poisoning our children.

Right on all three. My post was in response to a post talking about the music, restaurant, and entertainment options in Baton Rouge.
Pay a coach enough to come to LSU, and all three of those become irrelevant. A coach making $10 million a year can literally use time in the off-season to visit other places.

what is it needing to do? It has music, restaurants, sports.
Our restaurants here are nothing close to the restaurant scene in New Orleans, if we're being honest.
What music scene does Baton Rouge have, other than Live After 5, the Blues Fest, and whatever country music artist can sell enough tickets to halfway fill Tiger Stadium?
The truth is that Baton Rouge can have all of these things, but it would take a lot to attract creatives to the city. Our politicians are too shitty in the parish to get any of this done.

All of us take price into consideration, why is it bad when a business does it?
I'm not saying that it is wrong for a business to manage their labor costs.
What I am saying is that it is intellectually dishonest to put out this propaganda that American workers are not talented in the tech and engineering fields, when there are entire news articles that show that this model is not working, and that it is ultimately costing businesses more money in the long run to try to H1B their way to profitability.

So, how is rehiring an American worker after hiring two foreign born tech workers at a cheaper cost to replace them allow them to save money?
It's inefficient, and ultimately, costs the employer more to do it this way.

It's amazing the number of people who are in here who are eating up this propaganda and are willing to sell Americans down the river.
I know an American with a software engineering degree (with work experience and great grades from undergrad from Georgia Tech) that gave up job hunting in the tech field because of the massive number of H1B workers that have been imported by tech companies. He now works as an assistant manager in a hotel.
Also worth noting is that many of these tech companies use H1B visas, import these foreign tech workers, have Americans train them on how to do their jobs, and then dismiss the American workers. I also know of a lot of stories where H1B workers in tech screw up a lot of code that causes companies to then rehire some of the same people they canned to fix their screwups.
The basis for all of this is just wanting to have cheap labor.

It says he has a right to cure "to the extent curable" on seven days notice. So it may come down to whether the cause was "curable."
If he took a Florida vacation during a bye week when he was expected to work and prepare for the next game and be in Baton Rouge, that is certainly a fireable offense that was not curable. How do you "cure" choosing to take a vacation away from work when you are expected to be at work?

Who is advising LSU in this matter?
The argument that Woodward and four LSU officials didn't have the authority to fire BK is laughable.
I'm not sure who is advising LSU in this matter, but I do think that a lot of this could have been avoided had Woodward adhered to procedural language in the contract and sought the Board of Supervisors' guidance and scheduled an emergency meeting after the meeting with Woodward and Kelly went to shite.
If LSU did have cause to remove Kelly, then they could have sent notice to Kelly of their intent to terminate him within the parameters of his contract. What the lawsuit says is that at no time did the Board of Supervisors (the actual party to Kelly's contract) provide him notice that he was terminated with cause and that they failed to adhere to their own procedure per the contract to terminate him with cause.
I also believe that having Governor Boo-Shay involved in this made a bad situation even worse.

Democrats understand their voting base and also know they have a media to assist. Sounds like their talking points are working on you just fine.
I'm literally asking you about what compromises have been included in the 13 requests that have been made to reopen the government. That shouldn't be hard for you to tell me, considering that you stated that compromises have been offered.

Can we get back certain academic requirements for admission to LSU?
Unless you're wanting academic requirements to go down, I think you'd be happy with where LSU is, right now.
For LSU admissions, the average GPA for admitted students is around 3.8, with the middle 50% of students having a GPA between 3.5 and 4.1. The average ACT score is 28, and the middle 50% of applicants scored between 25 and 30.
As it stands now, a first-time freshman is required to have no less than a 3.0 GPA and a 22 on the ACT. So, the middle 50% of students already have GPAs and ACT scores that are higher than the minimum required for admission.

So you want Democrats going full nutjob if they are ever in this situation?
No. I want people elected to Congress to govern. Right now, we're being taxed to pay into a government that has not been open for more than 30 days. Whether the policy is good or horrible, Americans have to deal with the consequences of their participation (or lack thereof) in what happens in Washington.
If you want to preserve the filibuster, then compromise with the opposing party to reopen the government and govern. If you don't want to compromise, then nuke the filibuster and govern.
Either way, do the job that you were elected to Congress to do.

So, they're worried more about setting a bad precedent than actually governing? They have the numbers. They just want the political cover to say that what's coming out of Congress is bipartisan, when they know that it isn't.

From a practical standpoint you may be right about private donors but from a Legal standpoint it sounds like from your argument, he’s right ?
From a legal standpoint, he's right, because the party that would be sued (in the event that the buyout would not be paid by TAF) would be LSU and the LSU Board of Supervisors (as the governing arm of LSU), because they are parties to the contract.
In practice, private donors through TAF pay the lion's share of the LSU head football coach's salary.
... but we all know that it's never going to get to that point, because boosters always put up the money.
He also lied during that press conference and said that TAF is taxpayer funded, when everyone knows that's a lie.

I think that this is a 100% lie that was told by Landry, and he should really STFU, like yesterday.
No way Woodward would have canned Brian Kelly without having booster approval, because that's who's honestly running the show, the mega boosters that are going to pay the buyout.
