Is this the case that was being watched because, as part of the settlement, the Sackler family was likely to be granted immunity?

Celsius or Fahrenheit?

I love my Thursday boots. I do a fair amount of standing and walking in them and wear them all the time and they've always been comfortable for me.

Pretending the incident was random and unpredictable is your preferred way of preventing incidents like this from happening again?

Figure out what how and why the problem came to exist, that's kinda a big part of solving it.

I don't think I disagree with you, but with this comment you're kinda being an ass

The former president covered the cost of the bond by putting 10% toward it and he worked with a local Atlanta bonding company Foster Bail Bonds LLC, sources told CNN.

Oh this is fascinating! An example of the inverse could be maybe that Old/Older English didn't have spelling rules so much as habits?

If you have apples lying around, tearing one in half with your bare hands is actually pretty easy. There are quick guides on YouTube but basically, if I'm remembering right, you put the heels of your palms together at the bottom of the apple and finger tips at the stem and kind of squeeze the apple and try open the apple like a book. It makes a big difference having freshly washed hands.

I'd never heard of CAFE fees before;

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_average_fuel_economy?wprov=sfla1

I think this is the specific bit that you are referencing;

CAFE has separate standards for "passenger cars" and "light trucks" even if the majority of "light trucks" are being used as passenger vehicles. The market share of "light trucks" grew steadily from 9.7% in 1979 to 47% in 2001, remained in 50% numbers up to 2011.

Interesting also;

In addition, a Gas Guzzler Tax is levied on individual passenger car models (but not trucks, vans, minivans, or SUVs) that get less than 22.5 miles per US gallon (10.5 L/100 km).
