I’ll save the belly pics for the after hours thread ;)


I'll be damned. Posted the (19 week?) anatomy scan.

Those fools take 67 pictures there?!?!? I've been short changing people. We don't take anywhere close to that many.

The little lady has connections in the medical community. This one was done as a favor from a doctor, off the books.

We got one done previously (14 weeks) by through her GP referral, that one was more of a transaction deal - a quick peek, a few photos and cash at the door if you want a copy of the pictures. Also a lot less exciting at 14 weeks.

Uh oh might be time for people to stop using tweets as real news articles....
I think it's pretty telling how a report from BUZZFEED can send these people into complete chaos.

Hopefully none of them read The Onion.

Pretty sure what "people are asking for" is the correct response to witness tampering, witness intimidation and obstruction of justice by a president. You know ... those things that have been revealed in just the last 2 pages of this thread, or are you not paying attention?

So everyone is making more? Nice.

As far as I can tell, adjusted for inflation it's been a 4 dollar increase, not 9 dollars. Not sure why Bernie is using that as a talking point and then doubling it to make Trump look better. That's not an impressive rise, by the way. And it is built off short-term stimulus.

This is what you need to know about wage rises - American workers were better off in 1973 than today. Could be worse though, the Brits have taken it right up the arse in recent times and in my country all of our wage increases were spent by miners on whores, and now that's run out.

Trump offers 'compromise' to end government shutdown
US President Donald Trump has set out new plans on his Mexican wall project to try to end a partial government shutdown lasting more than four weeks.

One of his "compromises" was on so-called Dreamers - who entered the US illegally when young. He still wants $5.7bn (£4.5bn) to fund the wall.
What was in Mr Trump's address?
The president had himself trailed the speech as an "important announcement".

He started by saying the US had a proud history of welcoming new legal migrants, but that the immigration system had been "badly broken for a very long time".

Mr Trump said that in his election campaign he had pledged to fix the system and "I intend to keep that promise".

He said he was "here to break the logjam and provide Congress with a path forward to end the government shutdown".

He again spelled out his reasons for building the wall and again stressed it was not a continuous structure, just one of steel barriers in high-priority areas. But the demand for $5.7bn to fund it remains.

The two new ideas concerned the Dreamers and Temporary Protection Status (TPS) holders.

There are some 700,000 Dreamers, who were young when they entered the United States with their parents illegally,

The Dreamers are currently protected from deportation under a programme that allows them to work but not get citizenship. It is a programme Mr Trump has been trying to rescind.

But he said he would extend protection for Dreamers for another three years, allowing them continued access to work permits.

He said he would also extend the visas for TPS holders for three years. More than 300,000 people from countries affected by war or disasters are allowed to work in the US under TPS, another system Mr Trump has opposed.

There were other proposals, including $800m in urgent humanitarian assistance, 2,750 more border agents and security officials and 75 new immigration judge teams. Certainly the latter conforms largely with Democrat suggestions.

The president said his proposals were "reasonable with lots of compromise" and would "build trust and goodwill".

Trump offers 3-year extension of protection for ‘dreamers’ in exchange for $5.7 billion for wall; Democrats call it a ‘non-starter’
President Trump on Saturday offered Democrats three years of deportation protections for some immigrants in exchange for $5.7 billion in border wall funding, a proposal immediately rejected by Democrats and derided by conservatives as amnesty.

It's cute how you think you are informing me of something I didn't know. I was here when Bill was impeached in the House but not the Senate. Thanks for the U.S. civics lesson though; I'm sure someone will find it useful.
