Gloss? Not really. Bleach kills both germs and viruses, but the way either the roller ball or the wand come into contact with the gloss means you’d have to disinfect both the applicator and the gloss liquid. Any heat thing you might do to kill stuff would probably damage the gloss. Maaaaaybe if you had access to…

Respectfully, the true damage done is potentially the loss of the information those documents held. To use your example, it would be as if there were no copies or notes of the independence document anywhere and it burned. We wouldn’t know what that founding document said.

Its the perfect alternative to Hocus Pocus for me in that I loooooooooved this movie as a child. Just creepy enough to be thrilling, with enough comedic bits as I remember. I remember thinking that the Captain, put into adult terms, was such a loveable misogynistic grump (which, pretty much Rex Harrison=lovable…

And Designing Women! Truly the best dramatic monologue. Oh flaming batons...

The history of the runway was discussed in the article. Such as the mention of how Mary Quant in the 60s revolutionized the runway leading to those larger trends you talk about in the 70s.

You bring up a good point regarding representation of the actual customer. However, I’ve been reading stuff for years now about how teenagers’ purchasing power is growing and also about the rise of luxury goods being purchased by middle and even lower class customers.

So thin! Everything is see thru it’s just annoying. I have to wear double the layers for gap clothing. And not wearing an undershirt in a gap T-shirt is not alluringly, sexy transparent. It’s like being frumpy and naked at the same time.

Right? Weird thin fabrics or cuts that are just abominable. Patterns so boring I could just blergh.

Yes! Old work adventure, vintage glampings is my aesthetic! Amelia Earhart is my style icon. For a while BR had a signature line (on average 50% more in price) that was just that and I loooooved it.

Right, that’s one of the reasons the argument is a little specious. I was thinking though that delayed test might not be as valid in such a case. If they knew the guy they might have had a pretty good idea whether he might or might not have been under influence. If they thought he might not, an immediate test would…

The truck driver is some kind of reserve law enforcement. I’ve heard some ppl speculate that they wanted to help a pal out and draw blood that would prove he was clean to support any insurance claims or something of the like.

While the direct cause and effect may be debated, I’d always heard that VHS won because Sony (developer of Betamax) didn’t allow the mass production of Betamax porn videos. Thus most porn was VHS. So people bought VHS machines!

It’s not that I think girls can’t compete with boys, it’s just that I think there is value in spaces dedicated to them. Not mandatory, optional. Drawing an analogy to race as you have, the parallel would be HBCUs.

I’m kinda connecting educational institutions and extra-curricular stuff. Any kind of learning, confidence building environment. In a world which undervalues girls and women’s capabilities, I think there is a place for learning environments which encourage and focus their achievements.

I’ve said elsewhere, but my friends with young boys have almost all enrolled them in Camp Fire. It used to be a Boy Scout girls affiliate, but split decades ago to become inclusive and co-ed.

This larger issue is, I think, related to single-sex education. I feel like, generally its beneficial for young girls to be in an environment 100% dedicated to their growth and development because the world at large certainly is not.

Its true that to improve your posture and learn to lift things a well-designed exercise program under the direction of a trainer might help as much. However, care from a physical therapist might be cheaper in the long run. As the article points out, treatment for DR is covered by Medicare, workers’ compensation and…

I agree with you so much! I really don’t understand why it doesn’t get more love from P&P fans. The characters felt so alive and still so true to characterizations in the novel.

Aside from the lyrics of the song seeming to desperately plead the audience to stick with the show, the super depressing, plodding sound of the song just adds to the grotesqueness. The grotesqueness being food you want to grind down with your teeth and shove in your stomach singing and pleading with you to ‘stand…

I think McCain’s vote no saved Lindsey Graham and Dean Heller from having to vote no. It was likely discussed, at least between Graham and McCain. One more was all that was needed and with McCain they had it. So they can still toe the line for their conservative base and not cause a problem for them in elections. I’ve…
