  The kid waved a knife around and said they'd do me in if I talked.

Flash forward a few more years, I'm lost and need directions. I see a police, and against my better judgement, I pull over to ask him for directions. He didn't help with the directions, but he asked to see my license, insurance and road tax. I was late paying my road tax, so he fined me.

A year later, my father was travelling in Eastern Europe. We got a phone call in the middle of the night from an eastern European police, all he said was that they have my dad in a cell and he wants 5000 euros to release him, otherwise he'll send him on to the central prisons where he'll be locked up for a couple of years before his trial date comes up. We were shocked.  I told the guy we're not paying the bribe.

My dad went to prison.  They kept delaying his trial, his health deteriorated because of his diabetes, it was a shitstorm. Eventually we had to pay way more than 5000 to some even shadier characters to get him out of that country.

These are all my experiences with police in this life. I've finally learned the lesson: Don't talk to police.

  Don't talk to police.yeah the lock on thing is frustrating me cause i like it when i’m trying to fight one character and continue to face them, but sometimes when i’m locked on klaw, black panther starts fighting crossbones who i’m not even locked on to. Also in the boss fight i’ll have to turn the “lock on” off to blow up those levitating things, but it gets all glitched and weird and spazzes between klaw and the levitator-thing and then i miss it and then times runs out and i have to restart lol

still on the level and trying not to get frustrated bc crossbones is literally a bit too OP in this fight imo

lol love the game though this is just my “can’t beat this level and getting a headache” right now and i dont wanna restart cause i’m at the end lolLeaving a Legacy
Back several years ago, singer and songwriter, Nicole Nordeman sang a song entitled, “Legacy.” The lyrics of that song’s chorus go like.
We’ve heard graduation speeches, coach “pep talks” and leadership gurus echo (just to name a few) the same encouragement about leaving a legacy or being remembered. But what did Jesus say? Did Jesus say anything to us about leaving a legacy? In answering this question, we should look no further than The Great Commission that is found in Matthew 28:19-20. This passage verse, Jesus stresses the imperative of “make disciples.” This is why he (Jesus) poured into the twelve disciples. He wanted to show them and us His plan for reaching the world. In looking at this plan, you must ask yourself the question…was salvation the only reason why Jesus came? Clearly, the answer is no. He modeled a life of discipleship and then commanded his disciples and every committed follower to reach the world through intentional reproducing disciple-making.
In 2 Timothy 2:2, Paul writes, “…and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.” Paul understood this was Jesus’s plan for reaching the world. When Paul helped plant a church during his journeys, this foundation of discipleship was the most important part of seeing the kingdom grow.
Our legacy is to be one of discipleship. Nicole Nordeman’s song asks the question, “How will they remember me?” Jesus has already answered it and He has commanded it. He wants us to be remembered for making disciples.
May we be obedient and found faithful to His command until He comes!<reponame>OpenBookPublishers/author-reports<gh_stars>1-10

MEXICO CITY — Hugo Sánchez was fired as coach of Mexico's men's and under-23 teams Monday, two weeks after El Tri's U-23s were eliminated from Olympic qualifying.
The Mexican Football Federation fired Sánchez after 16 months on the job and having failed to deliver on promises of regional titles and an Olympic medal.
The decision by the federation's committee, made up of first-division club owners, was unanimous.
"We consider as terminated the contractual relationship with Sánchez," federation secretary general Decio de María said.
Sánchez's failure to qualify El Tri for Beijing is particularly stinging for Mexican players of this generation, who won the Under-17 World Cup in Peru in 2005 and reached the quarterfinals at the Under-20 Word Cup in Canada last year.
Jesús Ramírez, who guided the Mexican U-17s to their 2005 title, was named interim coach.
"Obviously, we want to be in (World Cup) 2010," federation president Justino Compeán said, noting that a coach search is under way. "We want leaders; we cannot accept another failure, another Olympic failure. If that was difficult, could you imagine if Mexico didn't make it to South Africa?
"We are working hard to get there, and the coach has to be one who will get us there."
Also tarnishing Sánchez's 33-game coaching tenure was Mexico's loss to the United States in the CONCACAF Gold Cup final last year. That result cost El Tri a berth in the 2009 Confederations Cup.
Sánchez's lone accomplishment was a third-place finish in Copa America, South America's premier tournament, last July.
Sánchez, a former star for Real Madrid and arguably the best player to come out of CONCACAF, acknowledged his Olympic program failed but had refused to resign.
Before taking the helm, Sánchez campaigned to become Mexico's manager, repeatedly criticizing predecessor Ricardo La Volpe and promising to make the team a world champion.

Any tricks for knowing whether glass in a wood stove or fireplace door is actually tempered, hi-temperature stuff?
Don't know of any common way.
But, I guess this would fall into the "inspector mode" of thinking. Why would it be a question? Has there been a fire lately and the glass survived? Is it smudged? Are fasteners/frame/gasket new? What is wrong with just saying "Looks like a new glass, can't tell if it is hi-temp." Or, "It ain't broke, so must be it is working." I have always thought solid fuel burning devices, not components, are nearly impossible to inspect correctly. Smoke candles, mirrors, talc, taste, visual, etc.
According to ASHI standards appliances such as wood stoves are not part of the inspection the last time I checked
