Remember when the world was so happy the Berlin wall was torn down?

It's a shame this wall won't get built because tearing it down would be awesome.


I'd hate for the whole wall to get built just to tear it down, since it would be a huge waste of money, but I would love if like one section was finished before Trump was out of office just so the next president could immediately bulldoze it.

It'd be easy enough to estimate how lethal it'd be. Sodium Chloride's LD50 is readily available knowledge, as is the sodium content of a serving of soya sauce (NaCl is about 40% Sodium by mass) and the volume of a bottle.

The LD50 on Sodium Chloride is 3000mg/kg and there are approximately 36,800 mg of sodium in a 20oz bottle of soy sauce.

Depends on what the artificial sweetener is and the period of time.

Cost of living in Hawaii is absurdly high.


It just doesn't look that high honestly. I heard it is, and food is more expensive, but rent not so much considering you can get a place on the freaking beach for $850 (more then one option cause....there is alot of beach). I mean in Alameda Ca you can rent a place (we lived at the south shore beach and tennis club apartments for instance), but it would be at least twice that much for the same thing and there are hardly any options (so it's like winning the lotto to get one).

I don't think i'd move to Hawaii though without taking a trip there first and making sure it wasn't too warm for me. I really don't like post 80 temps that much.


Cost of living in Hawaii is pretty much highest of any state in the US. The whole area is essentially a giant tourist destination and they produce very little locally so almost everything has to be shipped in.

I mean, what funds are responsible for renovating their offices if not the state's? What's the full scoop there.

Without looking further into it though I also don't understand the vote spread. Loughry has the one renovation accusation against him and he passed by a huge margin. Davis though has both the renovation and the overpayment accusations, the overpayment one sounding especially damning, and she was barely passed for proceedings. They are different parties though, so I can only assume some tried to save their party-mate which is bull considering they share an accusation (enough for equal voting) but Davis also has the extra offense.

The Chief Justice's spread wasn't stated in the article for some reason, but she's the same party as Davis so I'm guessing she barely passed 51 votes too.

SMH politicians.


There are 64 Republicans, 35 Democrats and 1 Independent, so the Republicans controlled enough votes to impeach or save any of them.

Looking at the votes for Loughry (http://www.wvlegislature.gov/legisdocs/2018/2X/votes/house/00604.pdf) 26 of the Nays were Democrats and 1 was the Independent, so the majority of his support was not from his party.

If you play around with the number of the PDF on that link you can find the counts other votes, but it is tough to tell what they are specifically for.

Are they making a comeback? I thought they closed all their restaurants about a decade ago. I used to eat there a few times a year before they closed the local location. I really liked their seasoned french fries (I rarely get fries if they're normal plain fries). Other than that, they were decent. Can't remember what I normally ordered.


They did go bankrupt and closed a lot of their locations, but the brand was picked up by another company. There are only 15 in the US currently.
