Trump's First 100 Days: Here Is What The President-Elect Wants To Do : NPR

Trump's First 100 Days: Here Is What The President-Elect Wants To Do : NPR: "On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell mostly made nice with Trump but also shot down or expressed little enthusiasm in some of his plans. On Trump's proposal to impose term limits on Congress, McConnell said, "It will not be on the agenda in the Senate." McConnell has been a long-standing opponent of term limits, as NPR's Susan Davis reports. "I would say we have term limits now — they're called elections."

McConnell also threw some cold water on Trump's infrastructure plans, calling it not a top priority.

McConnell did say repealing Obamacare is a "pretty high item on our agenda" along with comprehensive tax reform and achieving border security "in whatever way is the most effective.""

Too many guppies and snails!!!?

Too many guppies and snails!!!?: "I started out with two guppies and one snail in my small tank and they have been multiplying like crazy! I now have probably 40 guppies and 60 small snails I have no idea what to do because I don't want to hurt or kill the snails or fish. I have called pet stores and no one wants to take them, and I also don't want them to be feeder fish because like i said before I don't want to hurt any of them! Any ideas?"

Introducing Beatles' valuable albums

Introducing Beatles' valuable albums: "There is a lengthy checklist collectors use to spot a fake LP, but one quick and reliable test is to look at the record label.

Originals have both the LP title, "Introducing the Beatles," and the artist credit, "The Beatles," above the center hole.

This is true no matter which version you have, and it applies to both mono and stereo.

Counterfeits have only the LP title, "Introducing the Beatles," above the center hole, and place the artist credit, "The Beatles," below the center hole."
