This completely depend on your hair type and skin type. Some of us end up with limp oily clumps of hair if we don't wash it every 1-2 days.

...in my day, the same stuff was accomplished most entertainingly by Sesame Street. "c" "oo" "kie"... "cookie!" Nobody was bored by phonics being screamed by a blue monster.

First, there is the dialect feature known as a "Linking R" (which usually happens in dialects where people don't pronounce the "r" at the end of words by default). In this video, you can hear JFK saying "eleve

Nope, there is no second "g" sound in the clip you linked.

You are betraying your ignorance of linguistics and dialect by viewing regional accents as defects requiring speech therapy. If children are taught to read by instructors who share their accent, such things are not even noticed at all. The

Cannot possibly be worse than the way people act on Facebook.

Facebook serves similar functions in my area, and is the best way you can find out if paving/waterline work/etc are causing street closures, or if wrecks or similar are causing a closure.

This is still Photoshop (today) requiring more clicks that PSP required in the 1990s for the same task. This was true for many tasks at the time.

But still, PSP did it better, with fewer clicks, that long ago.

Your only way to avoid being scanned for facial recognition is to never enter public spaces like airports. Perhaps to never leave your home.

The same is true in MS Word and even in many web browsers.

That's pretty hilarious, because I've known plenty of guys who were obese, yet could do 20 pushups. Being fat and strong are not mutually exclusive.

They should stop expecting all of their job to be easy as a Google search, get off their rears, and do real detective work. If it isn't worth real-world work, then it's probably not worth eroding citizen rights over.

Yes. Far more people see them by a road. Also, you can use them for things with no associated building. "In a field near here, Civil War Battle blah blah blah was fought", etc.

Most of these, in most states, are either beside roads or on buildings. I suppose it allows marking things that aren't buildings (or associated with one building). It also allows making far more visible, due to our car culture.

Why would we want to move from SMS to a situation where Facebook ALSO has a copy of every message we send? Not an improvement.

It is impossible to over-water this plant. It will grow in only water, without soil, provided the water is rich in nutrients. I stuck a tiny sprig in the corner of my aquarium, hanging over the top edge, and it has now grown almost across t

I just say "no, sir" or "no, officer" and let them tell me. I make very sure to be quite polite. Never argue. Take the ticket. Anything worse is not worth the satisfaction of trying to argue. Then, sometimes, if they&#x2

They can just as easily choose to broadcast only the person on the street who had the wildest opinion.

There is zero differwnce between this and the old fashioned practice of picking two or three random people on the street to ask an opinion of. Reporters have been giving "man on the street" opinions of news stories forever. The on
