This one comes to mind. It was quite expensive and Uma Thurman's father was involved when I used to get the catalogs 20 years ago. They have private and custom tours available. www.nomadicexpeditions.com

Some others. www.nomadicexpeditions.com www.geoex.com - Digging the 22 day train trip through the Silk Road for $50k

In 2010 a group of world class kayakers were attempting a first run of a section of whitewater in Africa. Just paddling along on a quiet section and quickly one was taken under never to be seen again. https://www.unilad.com/news/kayakers-catch-moment-friends-ki...

I grew up in NW lower Michigan. Cherry and other fruit tree country. Orchards need a lot of labor to maintain to get marketable fruit. I've seen several go wild and become deer feed. Also, they don't really scale as the grow as you need to spend more on infrastructure. Orchards now plant dwarf rootstock. This results in trees that bear fruit quicker but don't grow much larger that a human can pick by hand. They need a lot of care (water and pruning) relative to larger trees but the economics of the larger trees don't work as well as they take many years to bear fruit and then they need the infrastructure to prune and harvest because they are so big. It's not a simple thing at all.

I found a pack of 10 5mg bottles in a Discord group for $90 For me that would be a year's worth. Comes with 3rd party testing. Haven't pulled the trigger on that deal yet but I do have some I got for $50 for a 5mg bottle and that's still a hell of a deal. So far so good.

They do that in China and if you search the net a bit you can get 5mg of Semaglutide for $9 a bottle. Requires a little work as you have to add Bac water and inject yourself but it works great.

Wait until I tell you about the bootleg version I get get from China for $9 for 5mg bottle of Semaglutide. It lasts a month for me and works great. You have to mix it with Bac water yourself so there's a little prep and there isn't a plastic infector. Have to inject yourself with a syringe. These are 3rd party tested so there is some level of safety involved.

That time is here. I'm not all that smart and have made several quadcopters from parts. These do not have the geo restrictions that the commercial ones like DJI come with. There are thousands of people across the country doing the same with FPV drones. I live very close to a base that it's not uncommon to see Air Force One lands. I've often wondered if they have some sort of jamming software. It would be very easy to cause problems in a crowd and it's just a matter of time.

"Two years after the eruption, they tested this theory." Has the science community just given up on the word hypothesis? It's not that complicated and in the USA the word is taught almost every year starting in elementary. When a science driven website like this has given up then we've lost the theory/hypothesis distinction.

You may have a case if there isn't access to any other tech. My five year old son and I use the PC and 3D print to make cool contraptions. We use a computer for Xlights to make light shows for the holidays. He isn't quite ready for online gaming but that could be an option in a few years. There he would, hopefully, be able to have communication with people around the world. This link references smart phones and the unfettering access kids have that rewires the brain due to the short quick dopamine hits of social media.

I'm 6' 2" and weigh 215. I ride my bike 20 miles/week. Not a lot, but not nothing. My goal isn't really to lose a bunch of weight. I'm always hungry and I'm eating plenty. There's an ongoing hunger background noise in my stomach and brain. I'm definitely doing some self experimentation to get this figured out.

I purchased four 5ml bottles of semaglutide from China for $50. It's available at underground lab steroid sites and easy to find. Many people are ordering this and getting them tested and the results are posted. I realize the risk.

Chicago huh? Are you talking Naperville or did your kids grow up in an apartment on Lakeshore? The context here means a lot. Surely you wouldn't begrudge a parent in Detroit (outside of safe downtown) having a device to communicate/locate their child.
