That seems like it would be more expensive in the long run than hiring an adequate staff of guards, between construction, maintenance, and repairs. And think of all the extra time it would add to normal operations, such as opening all the cells for meals. Plus, contact between guards and inmates is something that should be encouraged, not eliminated.

No wonder it's not in use now.

The only Supermarionation show I watched as a kid was Fireball XL-5, which shows how old I am because it ran in the U.S. from ’63 through ’65. I well recall it was the subject of my younger brother’s temper tantrum one day as I tried to explain that you can’t just watch a show any time you want -you have to wait until it is on TV. Try explaining that to a kid now. Well, it didn’t work then either. He was only two.

True, that's why I mentioned it in the post. Insurance is a totally weird business separate from the other products and services. And sometimes the stats they use don't make much sense. Last time I moved, our car insurance doubled because we moved less than half a mile -into another county! The company said it was because the drivers in this county cause more accidents. But we are the same safe, over-50 drivers we were before we moved! No matter. We switched to a company that didn't go by county stats.

The soaking of the beans stood out to me, too, but I honestly thought it was evidence of his innocence. I mean, if he knew the guy was dead, why didn't he also know how much time he had before the replacement chili was needed?

When I first read your commen, I could have sworn you said

Tried this one the other day and made a bit of a mess, along with trying another suggestion I've seen that should let you kind of just squeeze out the egg from inside the shell.

I think the missing piece is it can depend on whether you cook the eggs too.


I had to laugh a while before I realized that wasn't what you said.

They aren't promoting fat; they are selling underwear. To sell underwear, you work with the customers available to you, and that means women who are already the size and shape they are.

I was just admiring how well the top picture represents a variety of women's bodies while still showing them all as attractive. Take a good look: while none would ever be a supermodel, only a minority of them could be called fat. I don't look as good as any of them (age is a factor), but shopping at a place that acknowledges variety is far less intimidating than dealing with Victoria Secrets standards.
