TopicI'm in a poll mood today...Ace Attorney (cases 1-4) vs. Justice for All?

Not really close for me. AA vs Trials and Tribs I have to think about, but AA vs JFA... I prefer 1-1, 1-2 and 1-3 to their JFA counterparts. 2-4 ekes out 1-4 maybe, but it's close and certainly doesn't bridge the gap.

I thought it was pretty good but nothing more

I like it as a fantasy in which Sharon Tate lives and so does her baby and all that. There's a sweetness to that. But there's a lot of stuff there that wasn't necessary and also wasn't entertaining. It was still good fun, tied together by the ending. There was a lot in the first half I could have done without. Overlong perhaps.

My favourite museum by far is the Egyptian Museum

It's a little bit off-topic since it's not really about the paintings, but holy shit the amount of stuff is unreal. Like there's stuff stacked on top of stuff and it's all really interesting and cool. I could have spent days in that thing

Mummies are super weird though and I'm not sure if I liked them or not.

Just the stuff in the Louvre and British Museum (so the Mona Lisa), but I've still never been to MOMA, Italy, or mainland Spain, so I'm missing a lot of stuff there. When I actually pay attention to it I quite like paintings and art, I just don't think about it all that often


Oh and I forgot. There was a Picasso exhibit at the Firestation museum in Doha a couple of years back, I saw a bunch of Picassos there.

I guess I meant in a non-squash and I don't really consider Cena's all that clean because he socked dude with a chain (which yes was legal but kinda makes it underwhelming).


Then yeah I guess it was

He's been pinned/submitted 6 times prior to tonight.

Taker at Summerslam 2015 was a low blow before Lesnar passed out in Hell's Gate
Rollins at WM this year had a low blow too
HHH at WM29 had HBK/Heyman shenanigans, though I'd still say the finish presented HHH as the better man that night (of course it did)
Reigns at Summerslam last year had a Strowman distraction
Cena at Extreme Rules
Goldberg at SvS

He's also cleanly lost Rumbles and triple-threats without being pinned, obviously.

TopicHow does someone on suicide watch commit suicide?
XIII_rocks
08/10/19 10:47:13 AM
#15
About 8% of inmates in local jails were on suicide watch when they took their own lives, according to the 2010report, which analyzed nearly 700 jail suicides in 2005 and 2006. While 93% of jails had a suicide watch protocol, fewer than 2% had the option for constant, around-the-clock observation; most facilities checked on every 15 minutes.


In the report, experts recommend "close observation," checks every 10 minutes or less for inmates who have recently tried to hurt themselves or who have expressed thoughts of suicide. "Constant observation" is for those who are in more immediate danger, whether they are threatening to commit suicide or are already harming themselves.



https://edition-m.cnn.com/2017/04/19/health/suicide-watch-prevention/index.html

Epstein was possibly only being checked on every 10 or 15 minutes.

in wg's defense, i definitely remember feeling... vaguely uneasy when i went to new york as a european, knowing how important guns are to american culture. sure, it's irrational, and i don't expect americans to get it, but i think there are more non-americans having similar feelings than you might assume. that being said, i wouldn't cancel a trip to the US because of this.


Yeah I would never cancel a trip, but I can understand being a little uneasy. I've been to other countries recently, knowing the fears are irrational but being a little more...on my toes nonetheless.

Interesting, so you just pour hot water into that and then pour it out through the spout? I have some decent instant coffee that I took on a hiking trip but never ended up using, but this seems like if would also work nicely.

Have you had Kyoto cold brew (slow drip)? It definitely has a different taste compared to standard cold brew from what I've had


Yeah. You have to seal it up and leave it 5 or so minutes to brew.

Never had that before. What kind of different taste?

Cold brew is a nice novelty but I tend to come back to a simple Americano more than anything.

But also Flat White, Cappuccino, Espresso are great

I love it out of the french press, Nespresso is ok
