Not a total surprise. Sufficient stress will cause many plants to flower and produce fruit. This, in a philosophical sense, is normal. As the plant feels the end may be near reproduction is hastened to continue the family tree, pun fully intended.
or, he could fix that shitty operating system and set of office apps so the rest of the world could get some work done instead of waiting for fixes, updates, and workarounds to problems inherent in his shitty operating system and office applications. Just sayin.
"the researchers discovered that passengers would be happy to part with their bags if there was no fee for putting them in the hold, and if they could be sure they would not get lost in transit."
Um, I'm going to file this under the No-Shit-Sherlock category.
She speaks for most people of the United States, I believe. Gawd! Politicians! Do something good for the country and stop the inane inter-partisan bickering!
Unsolicited gifts are still gifts. It's actually a law, generally speaking. The bank should have insurance to cover their inept teller actions, and the kid should be allowed to keep whatever they gave him.
"...sometimes the original owners want their loot back." Typical government response - you do all the work, we take as much of the profit as we can. There should be an international statute of limitations on lost stuff. I figure 100 years would be a good time. After that, any "treasure" is fair game to whomever wants to put forth the effort of finding it.
Also, if insurance has compensated for the loss then the insured no longer has a right to the lost property. And, one more thing that should be but isn't, if the insurance company accepted the risk and was paid for the coverage then they should accept the loss and not pursue reimbursement for the property value once the claim is paid. That's how I see it anyway.
1. If you already saw the plane crash why would you need to take a photo of it? It's already recorded in your brain and you can call it back whenever you wish to see it. Sounds redundant to me.
2. Cutting crosswise or lengthwise? SUDAFED® 12 Hour or SUDAFED® 12 Hour Pressure+Pain? Time is relative anyways. Do not try to cut the pill. That's impossible. There is no pill.
Interesting, but this is a repeat of history. Ages ago it was common for an individual's surname to relate to his profession. Whether this was by hereditary casting where the son followed in his fathers profession or as a way to assign surnames to those that didn't have them, I don't know. I wasn't there. But, the real question is: Which came first - the surname, or the profession, within the family lines?
And, like any inherited feature, such things as professional choice can skip generations, and be merged through marriage with other families who would, somewhat naturally, share similar professions within the family's social circle resulting in strengthening of the surname-profession link.
In reality, though, such connections are more likely in caste states and less so in places where a child is free to choose their own profession. Still, a fair amount of coincidence and marketing would come into play here also. Consider whether poop was called crap before Thomas Crapper popularized the common toilet and you get an idea of how history can move backwards instead of forwards.
Also, when a town had a predominant industry, and a large localized family, it would not be unheard of to find that the industry had a direct relation to the family that ran it. Again, which came first, the family, or the industry?
All in all, I'd say that the theory of this research is somewhat improbable in its application. But my name-number doesn't indicate that I'm a scientist so what do I know?
