The article says that the bracelets would audibly prod the workers to "keep working" when it detected inaction longer than twenty minutes. Maybe The Verge could employ this technology to spur on journalists who scribe seven sentence articles.
Absolutely. So called "friendly" dolphins are often very sexually aggressive. With knowledge of what aquatic beast lurked in the depths below, I could tailor my preparedness to either be on guard against unwelcome mammalian advances, or remain blithely unconcerned over some incurious, nimrod fish.
If the movie makers did this to avoid copyright infringement, why then couldn't they have created their own lighting pattern for the shot? If the very concept of putting any lights on the tower at night is the copyright, that's a copyright deserving neglect at every opportunity -a law begging a thumb to the nose.
National Geographic hosts one of the most superfluously code-encrufted websites on earth, thus it's unintentionally fitting that their article on subterranean topography references a subject abysmal.
My eyeballs initially read your post as: "How large of a sample population did they use in their BLING tasting..."
If hip-hop can exert that kind of influence over even my semi-literate brain, I ask you, what kind of a chance does cheese stand?
From the abstract: "Adult cats from two populations (pet and shelter) were presented with three stimuli within each of the following four categories: human social interaction, food, toy, and scent." Cat on cat social interaction wasn't in the variables. So, the cats in the study highly desired social interaction, not necessarily from humans. If they had included falling anvils, I would bet on the cats eschewing that variable.
Touché! Such a citation would help elevate my post out of the realm of mere glibness. I must apologize, though, that it wasn’t a court case but an FTC decision:
On a related point, I am unable to prove, owing to the destruction of many DeVos family documents in the Great Fire of Massachusetts’s port town of Innsmouth, that Betsy DeVos’s real maiden name is humanly unpronounceable and that the Blackwater Company is a cryptic nod to Lake R’lyeh.
Your Voldemort reference was genuinely hilarious. It also evokes a real unnameableness embedded in this subject: that US courts have determined it slanderous to speak the term "ponzi" in describing the DeVos family's great American fortune.
The true disaster here is Wisconsin's derelict education system which lead to the election of a city council incompetent at basic math and inebriated by the siren word "jobs".
I simply assumed the writer inadvertently left out the word "square". Apparently, the omission was a deliberate nudge to Hiring at any other publication with laxer standards.
Precisely. I couldn't agree with your point more wholeheartedly. Why, only last winter I solved my own personal encounter with climate change by playing the travel-insurance card when nature couldn't be counted on to guarantee my ski vacation. We as a society should buck up and similarly snap our fingers at this little bump in our existence. Show some fortitude, humans! Less hand wringing and more hand waving!
If the at-fault party to your accident had auto insurance or you had uninsured or underinsured coverage, you should have felt no compunction at riding the ambulance. Auto insurance would have covered your damaged vehicle and your health care costs after which your lawyer would be able to demand from the at-fault party's insurer a cash settlement for the identical costs already paid to the hospital, EMTs, et cetera (essentially paying out twice). Your attorney would take 30 percent and you would deposit a check for the remainder. U.S. health insurance doesn't have the monopoly on insanity.
Hyacinthe Rigaud's famous 1701 painting of Louis XIV clearly shows Quatorze wearing red, high-healed shoes. Why doesn't that bounder, Christian Louboutin, go and sue the sun king's ghost? Or is that not how prior art works?
Quite. There is a painting by Paul Klee of a concentration camp upon which is superimposed an abstract of Hitler's face. Just below the rectangular mustache is that asterisk.
