When I was in junior high we used to do a lot of scavenging and one day on the way home we decided to check the dumpster behind the library. We were extremely exuberant at the educational possibilities ahead when we found many many, um, gender study manuals in it.

Yes, you can partially determine a product's country of origin using its barcode, but it’s not foolproof. Here’s how it works:
Barcode Prefix (GS1 Country Code): The first few digits of a barcode (typically the first 2-3 digits in a UPC or EAN barcode) indicate the country where the barcode was registered, not necessarily where the product was manufactured. For example:
USA and Canada: Barcodes starting with 000–139 are registered in the USA or Canada.

China: Barcodes starting with 690–699 are registered in China.

However, this only tells you where the company registered the barcode, not where the product was physically made. A product with a US barcode could still be manufactured in China if a US-based company registered the barcode.

The part that says "Made in..." usually works.

OMG! Could you imagine being married to that? You wouldn't have to worry about any bullies, she’d beat their asses and send them crying.

She has skillz. She threw that table , caught an incoming folding chair with one hand and never dropped her purse. I'm telling you that is top rope G.L.O.W. type slammin...but without the G. part, just the low part

If I panic, my horses will panic, the women will panic, then the kids. I have trained my life to be panic free.
Because what I do and what I think and how I behave effects too many people. I do not have the luxury of fear.

Yep. Take care of the problem. You can always panic later.

One of the few pieces of legislation Trump has signed into law? Doesn’t legislation have to written, passed and sent to Trump before he can sign it? Just sayin.
