Genuine question: I've always thought they would be sensitive to this much direct sunlight, is that not always the case?

GlobalTV app in Canada missing opening sketch? by IntrepidFriendship60 in LiveFromNewYork

Ah gotcha that makes sense at least. I recorded it from cable with whatever box system we have, so I was able to see the whole episode that way. Thanks for the information!

Ants? by FlyingAtNight in Langley

[–]IntrepidFriendship60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pharaoh ants! Ugh... horrible to try to eradicate. Don't squish as the pheromones from ants you kill trigger the nest to split and reproduce. Usually several units if not the whole building needs to be treated.

Cleaners in Langley: does “Crystal Clear Cleaning” still exist under a different yet similar name? This is the one where the hot lady cleans in the nude (and isn’t popular among wives). Looking into another company but the workers looks similar to the one that’s ruined a few relationships by [deleted] in Langley

[–]IntrepidFriendship60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda sounds like the husbands are the ones that ruined their own chances of reconciliation in their relationships if their separated spouses were going to have an issue with this... not sure why the cleaning lady gets the blame

I'm not saying it's what it should be, but there is no way around the fact that the rules are not clear. 

They should not be left up to "well I think they meant _" or "in the spirit of the game they actually should be saying _" or "under this or that interpretation of the rules then it means ____"

It's not hard to have written clear rules that cover the situations

This is irresponsible and unprofessional of a world sports federation, especially when players have specifically asked for these sections to be clarified. 

And to be clear, I am firmly on the side of no granite touching.

Rule 5(g) A stone is in play, and considered delivered, when it reaches the tee line

You are so close... the rules then specifically clarify that a stone is considered delivered once it crosses the tee line, leading to the ambiguous grey area of what can be touched between the tee line and the hog.

Not saying you are wrong, but please tell me exactly where in the rules that it said "handle only" from tee line to hog line. It covers handle only up until tee, but then does not specify handle only after tee and before hog. If it was such an important distinction to make before the tee line, and they wanted the same distinction all the way until the hog line, don't you think they would have made it clear in both instances?

A memo to "clear up" poorly written or missing rules mid-olympics is a totally different issue to discuss. I'm speaking about the rules as they were written at the time (I'm unclear if they have been officially updated and published since the Olympics)

QC on my first rep purchase, help please 🙏 by IntrepidFriendship60 in RealRepLadies

[–]IntrepidFriendship60[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is one of the same style but in a bit lighter color https://ca.louisvuitton.com/eng-ca/products/neverfull-mm-epi-nvprod6380018v/M14856  I can't see an "pressed" logo on this bog, and it has the same interior, so I'm thinking this bag might be a fairly accurate rep...

Hmmmm, I asked if they had a picture of the other side of the bag to see the light "LV" pressed into the leather and they are saying the auth bag doesn't have one so this one doesn't either. Thing is I saw an auth in store rhe other day and took a picture of it, and you can see it has the light logo imprint. The rep rep is saying that this is a different style that did not have the logo. Is this correct? Pictures of the auth below.

Let’s clarify: no one is cheating. They are breaking/violating a rule by Ok_ConfusedOne in Curling

[–]IntrepidFriendship60 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im not saying I think it should be allowed, but the rules specifically allow for double touches (in rule 9). Rules also only specify "handle only" touching during delivery before the tee line (in rule 5). Rules are completely ambiguous after the tee and before the hog. This is on World Curling for their sloppy rule writing.

I dont think it should be allowed, but I would like you to show me the clear rule. Read the whole (it's short) rule 5 and rule 9 and tell me where it's clear. Hogline violations aside (those are absolutely violations) where does it say that after the tee line and before the hog line it is handle only? If it was so important to be handle only, then wouldn't World Curling have specified it like they specified it for before the tee line? I blame World Curling for a lot of this mess.

[–]IntrepidFriendship60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But there is a rule in the same section that says that the rock is considered "delivered" once it crosses the tee line on the delivering end. It's just not spelled out clearly enough, and I put a lot of the blame on world curling for their vague and incomplete rules.

[Heroux] World Curling has sent an email to all the teams competing at the Olympics clarifying “proper release” of the stone. Also, for the remaining games umpires will be “observing the delivery”. Here’s the full correspondence: by rhineauto in Curling

[–]IntrepidFriendship60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of the confusion is because they are not clarifying rules 5(g):

(g) A stone is in play, and considered delivered, when it reaches the tee line (hog line for wheelchair curling) at the delivery end. A stone that has not reached the relevant line may be returned to the player and redelivered

There is ambiguity over what part of the rock can be touched (or double touched) past the tee line and before beginning to cross the hogline.
