Oh this is an incredible review. "The main trouble with 1587 Prime isn’t its child-like idea of luxury. It’s that it’s a steakhouse that doesn’t nail the steaks." Ouch.

Same for me (exact preferences you have) and it looks like it is enabled by the university's IT department if you are using Office 365 provided by the university. Seems the only way to remove is to email the IT department and have them disable for you (if they agree).

This was me. And even with a toboggan hat yesterday. That's after spending 6 years in Minneapolis where this was shorts and t-shirt weather for me. How quickly I readjusted to what is cold (to be fair it really is a damp cold here).

As a Tulane fan this seems like an odd move since you are not out the running for the playoff at all. Win out and Tulane drops and you guys move into the playoff spot. So frustrating for fans. I worry it is coming for us too.

Having grown up in the Triangle but attending college in Boone, I was always drawn to Lexington BBQ sauce. It kinda straddles both worlds with a lot of vinegar and a little ketchup and/or brown sugar. My rehearsal dinner was a pig pickin in my parents backyard and that was amazing. Though no mayo.

I received an email from CSR last night that mine had been postponed (was supposed to be this Thursday) but no future date was offered as of yet.

As a Saints fan this is...frustrating. Seems we no longer want to score any points at all. Not that we were scoring much anyway. This guy is fast and will make Darnold even better. Good for him I guess.

I wish they would make it more readily available then (not in study section materials and so far hard to find elsewhere). One workaround is to use an older template and update. Seems like a lot of folks are using notes or creating their own.

Good advice. I really wish they still had an offline template available that I could use to then copy paste transfer into the online portal.

Agree with this and even any coordination might cross that line even without meaning to. I think the best thing to do is review the proposals as best we can, submit by the deadline, and hope we can meet. At the worst, the reviews are already done and ready for when the meeting is reinstated.

I just got an email from CSR last night letting me know the situation and to try and review and prep as normal with the hopes of reopening and holding the meeting. It seems they are doing the best they can to try and inform people with the little communication allowed. On to my reviews!

I have a close colleague here who is standing member and was supposed to serve last week and it just...didn't happen. No notice. I think there can't be communication sadly.

I have one in early Nov and haven't been able to have orientation for the new review approach so I am not even sure if I should (or can) review at this point. What a mess and I am feeling terrible for the applicants.

It sure as hell got me to feed in more quarters though, as intended. The quick flash for stick direction lives in my nightmares.
