Dammit man. Sorry to hear this. It definitely can be harder when you know what to expect.
Lymphoma scares me. My oncologist told me towards the end of my time getting scans “we have to stop at some point. We don’t want to give you lymphoma while trying to prove you don’t have colon cancer.”
Having had radiation therapy, it will always be a risk in the future.
Good luck to you. I hope they have some good news for you.
Yeah my closest cousin just passed away from lymphoma last week. She had a real rough time with it with experimental treatments at Johns Hopkins, etc.

If you make a job shitty enough, no amount of pay is going to encourage the right kind of people to take it and perform well in it.

What would y’all do to motivate the police? If your children wanted to be policemen in Austin, what would you tell them about the job? Would those words encourage such a career?

I was out of town over the long weekend and began to feel some sensitivity to ice in my lower right gums. By Monday morning, it was hurting pretty badly and starting to radiate into my jaw. By Monday night, the pain was intense, and I was having to ramp up alternating Advil and Tylenol.
I got in to see the dentist Tuesday morning, and after an exam he was convinced it was grinding/TMJ. I’ve never had an issue with this before to my knowledge. He got me set up to do a scan for a mouthguard and everything.
However, the pain continued to intensify, and by this afternoon it had gotten really bad, radiating through my teeth and down my jaw into my ear. I am having to take four Advil or three extra-strength Tylenol every three hours just to stay functional.
I called my dentist back this afternoon and asked if it could be a bacterial infection, and he reassured me it likely wasn’t, and I should stay the course with the pain meds. But this is awful.
Any thoughts? Should I push for antibiotics?Could be a cracked tooth as well. They typically aren't visible on standard radiographs. Unfortunately, if it is a cracked tooth, there is a decent chance that it goes all the way through the tooth and will require extraction. If you are in Austin, I would probably see an endodontist who can look at it in 3D CBCT. I would recommend Dr. Rane at EA of Austin (512) 459-3129. Unfortunately, it is Friday so it will be hard to find someone available today.

Ukraine's 109th Brigade Aborts Drone Test After Shahed Downed Nearby
Reports are coming out from inside Ukraine regarding the battle drones supplied by NATO, with some Ukrainian military officials claiming the drones are obsolete and lagging.
The Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, citing a Ukrainian officer, reported that NATO member states are supplying Ukrainian military forces with outdated drones that have little value on the battlefield. According to the officer from the National Guard's Typhoon battalion, these deliveries are unnecessary given that the systems are outdated.
He added that it is now Ukrainian military expects teaching their European and American partners the technologies of modern aerial warfare. The officer reportedly explained that his unit is engaging coverting commercial Ukrainian drones for combat purposes. He also admitted that comparred to Russian forces, Ukraine is at a significant numerical disadvantage in combat drones.
Russian officials have repeatedly claimed that the delivery of foreign weapons to Ukraine hinders efforts to resolve the conflict and directly involves NATO member states in the war with Russia. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has previously said that any shipments containing arms and military equipment for Kiev automatically become legitimate targets for Russian strikes.
The Kremlin has also emphasized that the West's continued support and supply of Ukraine does not contribute to peace and will have negative consequences.
When a Ukrainian-made drone attacked an ammunition depot in Russia last September, it showcased Kyiv's determination to strike deep behind enemy lines and the prowess of its defense industry.
The moment was especially gratifying for the woman in charge of manufacturing the drones that flew more than 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) to carry out this mission. For months after, Russia no longer had the means to keep up devastating glide bomb attacks like the one that had just targeted her native city of Kharkiv.
"Fighting in the air is our only real asymmetric advantage on the battlefield at the moment. We don't have as much manpower or money as they have," said Iryna Terekh, head of production at Fire Point.
Ukraine has fast become a global center for defense innovation. The goal is to match, if not outmuscle, Russia's capabilities, which were on brutal display Thursday - and Fire Point is one of the companies leading the way.
The Associated Press was granted an exclusive look inside one of Fire Point's dozens of covert factories. In a sprawling warehouse where rock music blared, executives showed off their signature FP-1 exploding drones that can travel up to 1,600 kilometers (994 miles). They also touted publicly for the first time a cruise missile they are developing that is capable of traveling 3,000 kilometers (1,864 miles), and which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hopes will be mass-produced by the end of the year.
Even as U.S. President Donald Trump presses for an end to the 3 1/2-year war - and dangles the prospect of U.S. support for NATO-like security guarantees - Ukrainian defense officials say their country is determined to become more self-sufficient in deterring Russia.

Nahlin just said he expects ctj’s favorite frat boy receiver to have a good game Saturday.
Not to upset @closetojumping but in one day McJaggy is going to become the best white, country-singin’ wide receiver to come out of Texas high school football in the last 35 yrs. People are going to be calling him a faster, better lookin’, 4.0 version of Limas Sweed.

I know Les. He's a great guy and loves Texas. I think he'd fight Shawn Watson right now if the two of them ended up in the same room.
Friends with Les as well (he grew up with my older brother) and this is probably true. A lot of people on here disliked him when he coached here (not when he played here) and maybe he was too old when he got here - but his dad was a great high school coach so I find it hard to believe he didn’t have some of the same qualities.

Basic employment law seems to be kind of all-lawyer adjacent. In the course of being employed as lawyers and employing others, we pick up a fair amount of the fundamental shit. Sometimes that level of knowledge can be helpful to a layperson, other times it takes something more complex and nuanced.
It seems like half of employment law is really unemployment law.

Here is what Bill Connelly / SP+ predicted before the Bama game in 2023:
Current line: Bama -7 | SP+ projection: Bama by 12.8 | FPI projection: Bama by 13.8
I like Connelly and I like SP+, but his model struggles early in the season. Same as FPI, same as literally everyone. There is not enough data to go on, especially for a week 1 game. I'm picking Texas and I think this game will look more like Michigan in 2024 and less like Bama in 2023. We have the QB advantage and we have the better defense. Those two factors alone decide 90% of college football games. Our secondary is going to make reading the field and making safe throw hard on the inexperienced (although clearly talented) Sayin, and he isn't going to have much time to do his job with our DL crashing down on him. OSU's best bet will be to lean on their run game, but that neutralizes their biggest asset in WR Jeremiah Smith.
I don't know what to make of our OL at this point, which makes it hard to predict how well the offense will do as a whole. But I'm pretty sure we can run block even if our pass block is deficient due to injuries. We definitely have the better stable of RBs. We can lean on our run game if we need to, which is a cornerstone of Sark's offense anyway.
Maybe I'm too much of a homer, but there it seems like everything lines up favorably for Texas. OSU is clearly an excellent team with a talented roster, but styles make fights and, at least at this point in the season, I think we are a terrible match up for what they want to do.
too much analysis. We have Arch and we have Livingstone - Mudhole!-

Just watched 4 TV analyst from Ohio say that this will be the best OL they have seen at Ohio State. One said that what will surprise everyone after the game is how dominant their OL was vs the Texas D. The other said that he had not seen one this good in the 14 years he has covered the team. Based on the numbers someone gave here earlier it makes me wonder what kool-aid is being served by the coaches.
Maybe a crappy d-line the O is going against in practice

Fasting, even intermittent fasting, increases my GERD unacceptable amounts. Any suggestions?
work out. And treat your GERD in the meantime.

On the whole drinking thing, if you’re looking for pills to make you feel better it might be time to just quit. I was having a conversation with my teenagers a couple years ago about drinking and how pervasive it was in their classes. The parents didn’t seem to care and enabled it because they were doing the same thing. I packed up 100+ bottles of bourbon, gave them away, and haven’t thought about it again. The health benefits were pretty quick even though I only had a drink or two a few nights a week while cooking or eating with friends. Even a minor amount on a regular basis makes a difference.
The culture of alcohol consumption is odd when you really think about it. From being around my kids friends, it’s becoming a more significant problem in their age ranges than what I remember growing up.
Maybe, but I can have one cider and I feel tired the whole next day. It's not a hangover - I think it causes sleep apnea or triggers allergies. Sure, I could never have a drink again and I would actually be fine with that. But, if a pill works and allows me to function normally the next day, I would love to be able to have a margarita with mexican food on some random Saturday night.
