Question: The nuclear option is a parliamentary procedure that allows the United States Senate to override a rule or precedent by a simple majority of 51 votes, instead of by a supermajority of 60 votes. The option is invoked by the presiding officer of the body ruling that the validity of a Senate rule or precedent is a constitutional question. The issue is immediately put to the full Senate, which decides by majority vote. The procedure thus allows the Senate to decide any issue by majority vote, regardless of existing procedural rules, such as current Senate rules specifying that ending a filibuster requires the consent of 60 senators (out of 100) for legislation, and 67 for amending a Senate rule. The term ''nuclear option'' is an analogy to nuclear weapons being the most extreme option in warfare. do you need 60 votes in the senate

Answer: no

Question: The Darien Gap (Spanish: Region del Darien or Tapon del Darien) is a break in the Pan-American Highway consisting of a large swath of undeveloped swampland and forest within Panama's Darien Province in Central America and the northern portion of Colombia's Choco Department in South America. The gap begins in Yaviza, Panama and ends in Turbo, Colombia, stretching between 100 km and 160 km (60--100 miles) long. Roadbuilding through this area is expensive, and the environmental cost is high. Political consensus in favor of road construction has not emerged. Consequently, there is no road connection through the Darien Gap connecting North America with South America and it is the missing link of the Pan-American Highway. is it possible to drive from panama to colombia

Answer: no

Question: For example, if a player has only the 7 of diamonds and 8 of diamonds left in their hand, and they draw the 9 of diamonds (forming a sequence), then whether they win the hand or not depends on if they are playing the discard rule variation. If they are playing this variation, they can not win the hand at this point, because they have to finish the turn by discarding one of the three cards in their hand, causing them to no longer have a sequence. However, if the player is allowed to lay off this sequence without a final discard, then the game ends when the player lays down the sequence. And a player can lay down cards afterwards. A player may not win or go out if rummy is declared on the board. You may also pick up from the discard pile and discard that card only if it is with another card. can you pick up from the discard pile in rummy

Answer:
yes
