I was thinking they were just beads. The level of noise they make would not justify the effort to drill the holes.

So, OK. I believe on global warming for sure. However, this article speaks to a devegetation that took place over 6 months. That is more attributable to weather than climate. Based on a description of the island, a bad storm season would have the same effect.

Or, you can say they can join the Android users with having EVERYTHING you tell Siri saved on a server somewhere and analyzed for marketing information.

You beat me to it. At 6'4" 250, that thing isn’t going to make it. Losing weight is probably a better choice over waiting for things like this to change, at least for me.

Great stock photo. With the exception of the unbuttoned shirt, that is a perfect representation of ever white, middle-aged developer I have met.

I have had contracts end suddenly in late summer - the slowest time of the year for my industry. Companies do not care what happens to contractors after the fact. I would say at least three months reserve.

If you point out someone is offensive and needs to improve, then you are just another “shamer” so good luck with that.

At the risk of overthinking it, maybe the person making the call at Walgreens had the chance of making a HUGE bonus if it worked out and very little downside if it didn’t. Or the downside was acceptable given the up. Then he would do it as the money at risk is not his.

Nor can one magically hijack a plane with “chemicals”. Which leads to the real point. The #1 prevention of hijackings now is going to be the reactions from the passengers and crew.

a) Then are we in agreement they cannot? Clarify.

Do you really think a company is going to spend $1 million out of spite or some effed of sense that inmates don’t deserve air conditioning?

Yes. But they lived in houses designed to allow the flow of air and catch the breeze. Often, the built special porches for the special purpose of sleeping when it got to hot. I do not think these prisons are designed with these features.

Texas does not have A/C in most of its prisons either.

If it worked, they made money on that. If it didn’t, they made money on the story. They really had no reason to look any deeper.

Because Walgreens is not in the business to provide accurate lab results. They are in the business to make money and reducing costs helps them do this. Add to the fact there is no law that requires them to verify the vendor’s techniques, if the shit hits the fan, they are not culpable. So, basically they are incented…

Good read. Especially given modern attitudes towards social grace. We live in a world of “I am going to be me and if you don’t like it fuck off”. Self monitoring is how we get along in an ever crowding world. So many people say they do not give a fuck what other people think of them, but we are all connected and in…

That would be nice. Unfortunately, Goldman Sachs didn’t get the memo.

Not sure how that is incentive. I can link sources that show companies weigh your safety against their profit all the time. At anyways they would have insurance and, as a corporation, could only be liable for their investment.

Do care to actually state some facts or refute anything I have stated or are you just going to run your mouth? Do you care to support anything you have stated?

Seems like the most vulnerable place is the lines the TSA have caused.
