I took a three week vacation to China in 2001. While I was there, I purchased a replica Terra Cotta Soldier, and I chose to have it painted in "authentic colors." I was very disappointed in it's appearance when it arrived.I w

I'd say it's like a gambler's addiction. They want to hold the property open because "Someday <SomeBigCo> is going to call me and say they need 30,000 sq ft of retail space by next Tuesday, and I can't afford

It's a decent start, but it doesn't really do a whole lot for "transparency", it simply caps the charges against some completely unknown and somewhat arbitrary number.

You can also ask for the meal to be split between yourself and your dining partner. Unfortunately, the few times my wife and I tried this, they split the main food (burger, steak, chicken, etc) but then the doubled up on all the starchy sid

I've been to Salford a couple times (my company is there) and we stay at a hotel in Media City. Even that area which I have to assume is the "gem" in their crown is physically dirty.

Hated my current job and while I was on vacation in China, I sent a couple of inquiring emails to some contacts I had. I had a phone interview from a hotel lobby in Hong Kong at 2am (job is in Illinois). By the time I got home, I had a face

Very nice, but the algo seems to get confused some times. There are places you can get to in 3.5 hours from Chapel Hill NC that you can't get to in 4.0 hours. https://oalley.net/map/b6u And apparently, I can'

46, I took Discrete Math I & II this past spring. It wasn't easy. Last math class I has was (failed) Calculus I in 1989 and (failed) again in 1990. I got a B+ and an A- this time, but I probably put in 30 hours per week studying an
