Also, why divert? I mean, odds are close to 50% that the place you are going is where the body needs to be anyway. Diversion to a third airport is almost a 100% guarantee that the body has to be repatriated.

The Corvette is a little wide and a little fast maybe - but the car parked on the corner is an issue, creating a blind spot.
On balance I'd say the Ford has more responsibility - looks like zero situational awareness going on; approaching a corner you need to look and slow.

Not Mexican scientists. Mostly for TV, funded by the Discovery Channel, Channel 4, and others.
The main researcher was MIT’s R. John Hansman, Jr.
Reason it was in Mexico was US authorities wouldn’t approve the controlled crash - but the Mexicans were apparently happy to help.

I’ve spent the last two years in Australia. My local GP surgery is open 0700 to 2000, 7 days a week. Usually easy to get an appointment. If they are busy, or I am elsewhere, I am free to go to any other surgery, anywhere in the country. The UK needs to have this.

For a random passenger who has died, the odds are around 50% they died either going to or from home because that is the vast majority of flight patterns. The balance will be third legs.

Ouch.

Out of interest, here is a 2023 NMCA article on 'Tripp' Carter, the skipper in this video.
He loves racing cars and boats; this 2012 incident is not mentioned.
He and lady in yellow (Wanda) are still together, so this accident didn't sink their relationship, at least.

The end of the Connections episode "Eat, Drink and Be Merry..."
The whole 42 minutes is well worth a watch. It opens with a monologue on plastic, credit cards, and the implications for privacy.
This was back in 1978

This. My first thought was "It's not 11:00 on a traditional clock face, it's eleven o'clock. 11:00 is exactly what digital clocks would read, so 11:10 is the correct answer"

TBF, the reason you’d delete that photo is that the barcode contains all the information someone needs to modify or cancel the return leg online.

So when a pipe bursts and floods “the banks” mortgaged home, go to the bank and tell them to fix the mess “their” pipe made in “their” home.

Some answers:
1) Unless you are unknowingly carrying an infection
2) Usually more than you'd expect
3) It's not the urine. Despite (1) & (2), the main concern is generally the fecal debris/bacteria that is in the air and on every surface - flush, door handles etc

She died from hanging, believed to be suicide according to some reports. Eduardo’s family were eventually located and said the photo isn’t of him. The lady remains unidentified.

It’s terrible because I know that can result in a serious injury, and genuinely hope she is OK - but I am watching it on loop and still can’t help giggling each time.

We used to own Geese and Turkeys that were free to roam the property.
Whenever strangers would pull up, the Geese would be at the Driver's door, all honking and scary.
Invariably, people would then get out of the passenger side, where the Turkeys were lying silently in wait.....

Venus and Uranus both rotate the “wrong” way, but this refers to the planet rotating on its axis - like a spinning top that is spinning in a different direction to all the others.
The direction of the planet’s orbit around the sun is the same for all planets, and is believed

I use the “moving overseas” excuse no matter where I am and what I am cancelling. Hasn’t failed me yet.
Only thing is you need to have the story about where and why ready, just for the chat that probably will ensue because people are often genuinely interested.

Her name is Sarah-Jayne Snow, and there are a few articles from March and April about this but I couldn’t find any conclusion except the birth went well and mother and child seem happy.
Some people reported that the father had died in a car accident, but she believed these were

She was given good advice:
Ramsey said the average US household income was $75,000, so living on the husband's wages was "approaching half of average."
"So you're probably using that pharmacy degree for the rest of your life unless your husband gets his career really geared up,"

I've used a similar line: "I'll happily comply once you show my your offical policy saying this is required, or write a signed note saying that you are requiring this of me - which I will use in my subsequent complaint to your head office"

engineer named Jim Moylan in 1986. Here’s his original letter pitching the idea. It was such a useful idea it eventually spread to other manufacturers.

I was a service station console operator back when a pack of Winfield Blue was just $3.18 (yes, that was a long time ago)
The number of people who would buy $1.82 of petrol then say “oh, I’ll just have a pack of Winnie Blues then” as if it was an afterthought from a $5.00 note

He bloody does too! 51s.

When I graduated I had the same problem. Entry level engineering paid less than my job as a nighttime console operator.
I just did both jobs for a few years until I was more experienced.

Even then, it didn’t really work. It is fairly easy to examine a received message’s internal headers to see the timestamp for when it was submitted to the server - which is using the server’s clock.

The headline is ripped from the Daily Mail, but the real crime here was committed by whoever wrote that caption text:

Whilst I sympathise, you need a better class of contractor if the one you use has dusted your entire house.
Dust control measures aren’t difficult not expensive. Not compared with the potential health issues they mitigate against.

I’m not sure. I saw this movie once that (at first) I thought was totally unrealistic - a young lady had a plumber, mechanic and builder all turn up on time, and only 30 minutes after she called them.
It was the sex scene that had it all make sense to me.
