Kissing her would be like kissing a barbed wire fence.

Just needs barbie Q sauce for that extra +

I DIN-un know that.

They slot right into a fuse box. They connect to a busbar (I think). This is like my fuse box, but I have circuits with both light and power coming off the same circuit breaker. It must be the OK thing to do because it was my electrician who did it, and he was keen to tell me that his licence was too important to him to do anything shonky.

You misunderstand the legal meaning of "arrest". Its meaning is quite simple - "to stop". It comes from Old French arester "to stay, stop" (12c., Modern French arrêter), from Vulgar Latin *arrestare "to stop, restrain". When you are pulled in at an RBT site, you are actually being arrested. Pass the screening test and the need for your arrest is over and you are released. It is only after one is arrested can they be detained if required. In the case of an on-field assault, the umpire/referee stops the assault and calls up the alleged offender. That's an arrest. The rules of the game allow the umpire/referee to expel the alleged offender from the field. Thereafter, action can be taken against the offender, either under the Laws of the game or by the criminal system, or both.

I couldn't recall the exact incident when I wrote my previous post, but the one you quote is probably it. Grievous Bodily Harm would be the correct offence to charge with for a broken jaw. It is amazing that in this day and age you get into more trouble for calling an opposing player a monkey that for giving a black eye.

Slight legal problem: When a person sets out to play a body contact sport, the law of assault (for the most part) ceases to exists. Each player, fully knowing that the game will involved body contact, agrees to allow it. It's the same with boxing, wrestling, and the Asian martial arts. A bit of biffo in a tackle, or a head-high, and whatever is similar in AFL, is an offence covered by the rules of the game, and is dealt with by the controlling official. Any hitting incident that occurs "off the ball" and which results in an injury that requires an extended recovery period could be prosecuted criminally or civilly. However, there is no need for a pitch invasion by the constabulary to effect and arrest.

When I had my hovel rewired and a new fuse box installed, the electrician installed RCBs on every circuit at my request. I have Clipsal RCBO220/30S devices which are compact and efficient devices designed to enhance electrical safety in residential settings. It combines the functionality of a Residual Current Device (RCD) and a Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) into a single unit. The only problem it created was that the old hot water heater would trip the circuit. The heater was yonks old, and so I installed a new one.

I'd say that it is a symptom. How common is the phrase,"drowning one's sorrows"? The reason for alcoholism is that alcohol has been an accepted part of the diet since it was first discovered. In fact, if it wasn't for fermented drinks, urbanisation would have failed due to water-borne diseases. It is easy to obtain. The problem with its use is its abuse, which can under certain circumstances lead to alcoholism. Obviously, if one becomes an alcoholic due to Problem No. 1, then Problems 2, 3 & 4 can flow from it. Unfortunately there are a lot of newly man-made substances which can be accessed to deal with physical and mental health issues. Remember "A cup of tea; a Bex, and a good lie down", or The Rolling Stones' "Mother's Little Helper"? We've had pot and heroin and cocaine, and now we have the synthetics.

The use of alcohol might be something that belongs to older generations, which did not have the access to stimulant drugs which seem to be the norm amongst the younger generation. Alcohol does lead to the lessening of the social inhibitions that control "normal" behaviour, and coupled with the reasons for using it as a source of mental distress relief can lead to the situations you describe. Also, alcohol eventually is a sedative. However, the current drug of choice by the generation which is now in its twenties and in the early stages of relationships, is a stimulant. Coupled with the mental distresses that would cause a person to continue to use it, turns the user into an irrational, over-powerful monster. It is those people who are committing the violence.

I've been saying that for a while. Basically, there should be a complete ban on anything coming out of the USA that contains depictions of violence. That includes movies, TV shows, video games and music. We don't need to have our society polluted by what is a cancer in the US society. As for ankle bracelets, unfortunately there are not enough police on duty at any one time to deal with those alerts. What might work is something like those anti-barking collars that once were used on dogs. The ankle bracelet could be programed with a geofence, and include a device that gives the wearer a shock like a cattle prod if they crossed into the defined space. There could also be a device given to the protected person, a bit like a remote car lock thingy, that the protected person could use to shock the baddie if they kept coming. I wonder how many of these domestic violence crimes are committed as a result of the offender being in drugs. I would see drug use being a reason for a young woman to end a relationship with someone who is unable to provide the expected domestic tranquility that women innately need.

This week's domestic murder in Forbes, NSW has had me wondering about the male culture the alleged offender was mixing in. Are our young men so inured to being violent in domestic situations that they won't try to check it in members of their group. However, I have a feeling that these blokes who do these things are so way out of it that they would be excluded from any circle of friends they may have had in the past. Once again, however, we have an example of a serious offender at large on bail after having been charged with rape, assault and even sticking a finger up at the Court by breaching a Court ordered AVO. Elsewhere I have presented the criteria to be considered when granting bail. It is obvious in the Forbes matter that the protection of the victim was not given heed to.

That sounds a lot like what happens with playing the stock market. Shares are traded but the trade does not produce anything that has a use. The person who initially gets the STC hasn't really produced anything. Then that person can sell them to a polluter, who continues to pump out pollutants, but can claim that they are not doing so. At the end of the process, no less pollution has been produced. In other words, it's a flim-flam operation.

Ah! Rental property ownership - the American Dream. Why try to get into someone's nickers when you can screw them in the hip pocket. What a lot of these landlords need, having forced long term, regularly paying tenants out by jacking up the rent, is to rent the place out to people who don't pay the rent beyond the first month, wreck the place, then disappear into the night. The place I rented for many years in Sydney from 2016 was probably built in the mid-90s. That means an average 25-year mortgage would have been paid off in 2015. From then on, the landlord would have been receiving, at least 75% of the weekly rent, after agent's fees, insurance and rates. Happily the rent wasn't raised and the only repairs were the replacement of the hot water service and oven. The rent did go up $50 just before I moved out, and another $150 afterwards. I had a good landlord.

I was the fat kid at school, and am still too heavy. However, I've lived my three score and ten as a large person, but I was never as massive as so many people I see. Both my kids are amongst the massive, and I said to my son recently, I'd rather be looking up at you from my grave, than looking down at you in yours. I am afraid that they won't see seventy because their hearts will give out. But suggest to them that they should rip the weight off before they reach 45 and they will howl you down.
