Yep, these tabs are great. Very good for stained cups and mugs too, and food safe!

There was a double page spread in one issue of Judge Dredd - The Judge Child Quest where a whole planet opened up like a venus fly trap.

Right. It happened very fast as well.

Here's a tip that's worked very well for me. Find a map of the city or area you'll be in. (Optional: Take it to Kinko's and get it laminated). Stick it up in your bathroom. Then, every time you brush your teeth or spend time in there, you can just check out the map. I've found that I get to know where districts and…

I'd rather watch 12 hours about zombies than bloody jazz any day.

MASS NOUN.

If I have to eat at my desk, I pull out a cloth napkin from my drawer which I use as a tablecloth. I leave the candelabra at home.

But as the article (or one linked from it) describes, a last defence weapon such as Phalanx or Goalkeeper wouldn't stop a swarm of cheap ballistic missiles. At least one would get through. This is just a laser version of that.

This post reminds me of this funny Hugh Laurie monologue from about 1990.
