3/9 Feb. 1, 2020. The call that produced Proximal Origin. Twelve scientists.

Only 2 concluded it was natural. Per Fauci's own notes, "the rest felt that deliberate insertion was possible."
This was never a 50/50 room.

Thank you @ReneaJones4TN for Voting for the great HB0085 from @joey_senator earlier this year to give our kids 40 minutes of Recess per day in #TN ! AMAZING common sense bill to help ensure our kids get the physical activity they need! #moreRecess

@TAMU @TamuFootball

Now is the time to innovate with a new coaching contract- no more massive guaranteed deals. Put high % incentive vs a "reasonable" base salary. Like normal exec pay.

Then hire someone fun and trusted in the TAMU community like @JManziel2!

A new study of “forever chemicals” from the United States Geological Survey estimates that these contaminants now taint nearly half of the nation’s tap water. PFAS refers to more than 12,000 chemicals that persist and can build up in the body. https://t.co/j0DhcfOzbl

I had not ever heard of The #Sneetches. I was appalled at the way the school "canceled" #DrSeuss, so I had to get my hands on this book for my family. Read it today and it was a great hit with all.

[NPR's Planet Money @planetmoney]

What do Where the Sidewalk Ends, Put Me in the Zoo, and the Frog and Toad books all have in common?

They all have lessons about economics!

Host @Erika_Beras met with a 3rd grade class to teach some econ and learn a little herself along the way! Listen:

@elliswonk thanks for interview. "...the Nikkei still has not recovered to the level it was in 1989..."

This part of episode, eye-opening. Can @planetmoney make an episode to analyze WHY?

An aging population? Slow pop growth? Will this happen to USA now?

[NPR's Planet Money @planetmoney]

You've no doubt heard financial advice like "be house rich, cash poor" or "make sure to get a fixed-rate mortgage."

But, does this always align with economic thinking? @Yale economist James Choi is skeptical. He talks with @elliswonk on our latest ep:

Boomers are retired/retiring. Many were offered voluntary retirement buyouts at the beginning of COVID, and have not returned (no one talks about this!).

If boomers hold 55% of stocks, what does "retirement" look like? Slow or mass sell off to fund retirement purchases?

General Machine and Tool Company, Inc. will invest nearly $4M to expand its headquarters in Elizabethton.

Through the expansion, the full-service machine part manufacturer will create 25 new jobs at its Judge Don Lewis Boulevard facility in Carter County. https://t.co/WUSl4wsKsw

Just received acceptance on #PPPloan from @SunTrust. Thanks @SenAlexander @MarshaBlackburn @SpeakerPelosi @timburchett for your support of #SmallBiz !

Good luck to those who are still waiting to hear back. Heard great things also about @PayPal.

[William Sames @wjsames]

@Iam_SKYNET Awesome. Thanks for the recommendation!

[William Sames @wjsames]

@davidleary Didn't realize the change in wording. Where is this coming from?

[Jill Castilla @JillCastilla]

#PPPloan funding is officially gone. Tell Congress that it needs more $ now - too many #smallbiz, nonprofits & contractors are desperate and still waiting in line.
