Got my booster about a month and a half ago, but I just tested positive on a BAT today. I'm heading in for a PCR tomorrow. I’ve been dealing with symptoms since Tuesday and reported them then, even though I was still testing negative on the BAT as recently as yesterday.
Does this mean I'm stuck in isolation for seven days, through Monday?

Dell Latitude, Windows 7, Intel HD Graphic 4000
The issue:
Every 10 to 20 minutes or so, the colors start bleeding together and looking completely washed out, and the screen occasionally flickers or blinks. It’s intermittent—it happens, then it goes away...
Everything looks fine under the Intel HD section in the Control panel, but there's an exclamation mark next to the Standard VGA graphics adapter. When I check the properties, it says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)."
The laptop is fully up to date.

Can anyone help me figure this out?
Thanks

The club stepped up and took him in when he was at his absolute lowest, and now the organization is turning into a dumping ground for losers who just want a place to park themselves until they find something better. If he feels like this isn't working, then fine—terminate the contract immediately. Don't be spineless about it.

But look, if neither he nor Hajduk Split wants to continue this partnership, why should we force it or expect him to stay?

No more away games for the rest of the season:

The World Cup is kicking off in Tokyo. Does anyone happen to know where I can catch the live broadcasts or find some replays?

Yeah, that's definitely Scitec, I'm about 95 percent sure.

Weider and Scitec.

The kid is 17, and every nutritionist out there is going to tell you that teenagers in puberty don't need protein supplements since he isn't a pro athlete and his hormones are already running wild at that age.
What he actually needs is a solid diet and a steady intake of high-quality proteins and carbs through whole foods. It's not that I'm against supplements—I use them myself—but only when I have a gym session followed by swimming. Whatever catabolic effect people claim exists isn't going to burn off a pound of muscle for him.

It is a nesporan fact that muscles can very effectively utilize a solid dose of high-quality protein within about an hour after a weight training session. It’s up to the lifters to decide if they want to maximize their gains or if they’re fine with slower progress.
Also, don't forget that most 17-year-olds have a metabolism running at 100 miles per hour, and unlike us older guys, they often have fewer opportunities throughout the day to consistently eat high-quality meals.
The kid asked what works best; it's our job to give him the real answer. This isn't the *only* way, but it's certainly not harmful or counterproductive, and realistically, it isn't expensive or problematic in any other way. 30 grams of whey protein a day can only do good things. Of course, that's just one meal; the rest of the diet should be high-quality and balanced for everyone, including lifters—that goes without saying.

As a beginner, you don't need protein supplements in any form.

Why? I’d argue the exact opposite. A beginner actually needs to pay *more* attention to their nutrition, specifically their protein intake. If they don't, they run a massive risk of burning out—which happens all the time to newbies. They show up with all this willpower, training harder than anyone else, but if their diet isn't keeping up, the results just won't materialize. That's when the motivation starts to tank...

I don’t care what anyone says, this isn't just some tendonitis issue. If the pain is radiating through my entire leg like this, which tendon could possibly be responsible?

ironangler4 said:I'm a total beginner here, so I wanted to ask you guys something. I saw that whey protein powder over at Dell—it isn't exactly expensive, so I'm wondering if it would be okay to take it right after a workout?

Forget that whey from Dell. It’s nowhere near what you’d call high quality. Honestly, the price tag tells you everything you need to know.

I wouldn't believe it if I were you. No way.

Hey everyone,
I'm on the hunt for this specific Sevilla FC kit. From what I can tell, they debuted it during the 06/07 season.
I'm ready to pull the trigger and buy it, so if anyone has a direct link where I can find one, please send it my way.

Here’s the proof:

It’s true, we had to pull 600 tickets from sale, so some people missed out on the game. But honestly, it was better that way than risking someone getting hurt. To be specific, we had to turn away the Armada this past Saturday—those fans coming in from Seattle—and we wouldn't let those 30 or so people into the arena. Who could possibly control all that? That’s what Bajlo said.

Aaron Brooks20 said:Where the hell were you guys at the arena??? You were spotted hanging around near San Diego, but somehow missed the entrance?!? Does anyone have an actual explanation?

I’m not part of the Armada, but I know exactly what went down: the FBI brass decided that with all the other fan groups already inside, there was zero chance of securing the perimeter for one more group. From what I heard, there were only about 30 of you showing up anyway.

Arthur Martinez7 said:And all these people talking trash, including us here online, don't have a clue what it takes to coach a national team and win championships. Americans—we've got 4.5 million coaches. 😍

I honestly don't get it. What were we supposed to say after losing by ten against Denmark? Should we have just said, "Eh, whatever, at least we made it to the European Championship"? Or maybe, "Well, Ivano Balić and the rest of them couldn't do any better anyway"? Should we have claimed they just had bad luck, or gave it their all but things just didn't go their way? I don't buy it. We have undeniably world-class players, and it’s a crime not to demand they play at an elite level. Look, if our opponent runs a 3-2-1 defense and our wingers just chuck two balls out of bounds in sixty minutes, isn't that worth criticizing? (I'm thinking specifically about that last game against France when Lino also dealt with fallout because of media scrutiny)

boldhound8 said:Give me a break...

We moved on despite playing like garbage, but we only advanced because the Norwegians were even worse.🙄
Come on...

If you ask me, both we and the Norwegians played equally terrible (we won a game despite having 15 turnovers 🤷!), but the bottom line is that the refs pushed us through. Honestly, if this match had been played in the States and the refs called the game that way against an American opponent, I guarantee those officials wouldn't have made it out of the arena in one piece.

BTW, did anyone catch that moment where the ref walked up to Balić near the nine-meter line and whispered something to him? You rarely see a scene like that on a professional court. Who knows what he was actually telling him 🙂

frozentiger6 said:Everyone knows where I stand on Cervar, but damn, Milkovic 🙄

That guy finished dead last with this exact same squad back in Sweden during the 2002 tournament.

So what does he actually want now???

Give me a break, he’s going to sit there lecturing us about defensive schemes or offensive struggles. He took 16th place—lost by 12 against the Americans.

Lino did bring up Pinević once, mentioned some interview involving Caleb.

Bradley Nelson2 said:maybe the ref just whispered to him that he had money riding on a draw.🤣

I don't think the officiating was anything special. Those Norwegians were throwing elbows all over the place on defense. And the absolute peak of it was that offensive foul when Metličić took a hit right under his eye.

That was a blatant foul by Metličić, plain and simple. The fact that he ended up with a cut under his eye from the contact doesn't change the call. Are we judging based on who actually committed the foul now, or just whoever looks more hurt?
