    @wyliecoyoteuk @dick_turpin @andyc @rpcutts That’s why I chose the bank I did when opening my business bank account. They have their own payments platform that can be used in lieu of PayPal or Stripe. If there is a suspension or other issue I need merely consult my local bank branch manager. Much lower handling fees in the mix, too.

      Link Between Body Fat and the Timing of Puberty
      from Pediatrics
      Several recent studies suggest that the timing of the onset of puberty in girls has become earlier over the past 30 years, and there is strong evidence that the increasing rates of obesity in children over the same time period is a major factor. This article reviews studies from the United States that examined the age of menarche and the age of onset of breast development and pubic hair as a function of body mass index, which is a good surrogate measure of body fat. These studies are nearly all cross-sectional, so many questions remain unanswered. However, at least several studies show that girls who have relatively higher body mass index are more likely to have earlier menses, as well as a relationship between body mass index and other measures of pubertal onset. The evidence published to date suggests that obesity may be causally related to earlier puberty in girls rather than that earlier puberty causes an increase in body fat. In contrast, few studies have found a link between body fat and earlier puberty in boys. A growing body of evidence from both rodent and human studies suggests that leptin may be the critical link between body fat and earlier puberty. Leptin-deficient mice and humans fail to enter puberty unless leptin is administered, and rodent studies indicate that very low levels of leptin stimulate gonadotropin secretion both at the hypothalamic and the pituitary level. Current evidence indicates that leptin appears to play a permissive role rather than act as the critical metabolic signal initiating puberty. The linkage between body fat and the reproductive axis in girls may have evolved in mammals as a mechanism for ensuring that pregnancy will not occur unless there are adequate fat stores to sustain both the mother and the growing fetus.

    @lnxw48a1 It purportedly was earlier today. I was within the agency firewall using agency resources so I didn't notice anything screwy at the time.

    @lnxw48a1 We have a looming debt ceiling crisis, possible reinstatement of budget monies sequestration, and no enacted budget for FY2020 as otherwise expected in the timelines from the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. With everybody busily trying to get their party's nomination to run for President, the folks in DC are a bit distracted. The crew bent on attacking POTUS at any cost is also ignoring their role in governing, too.

    @lnxw48a1 Frankly we'll see the General Fund start to get uncomfortably low in the next 18 months if these personnel losses aren't made up. If we hit another shutdown at the end of FY2019 the Service may suffer further catastrophic personnel losses. There is an FTE floor under which several functions would have to be dropped such as Customer Service so as to keep things afloat. The Service doesn't have much cushion left above that floor.

    @lnxw48a1 Right now the bulk of federal revenue comes from the Individual Income Tax. The division that handles that is currently bordering on operational collapse. None of the 20 Democrat nomination hopefuls seem to have noticed that the 35 day shutdown caused a quarter of the critical processing and adjustments staff to resign while retirements are accelerating. While the Service is trying to hire to backfill attrition it is running out of potential candidates.
