Looks like regularly scheduled maintenance intervals. 15 minutes on weekdays, 60 on weekends. 
It'd be interesting to see if it'a actually always down the interval, or just that they're not promising anything during that time period.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Give this a try: Instant Checkmate | Background Checks, Arrest Records and Public Records[^] - it's surprising what it can find, apparently!

Forget it - they want money for the report before you are even sure it's the person you wanted, ratehr than someone with a similar name and state.

Living in NYC is indistinguishable from incarceration, but with the disadvantage that you don't turn up on any search engine (unless you're the tweety type), and nobody gives you food for free.

I'm not sure that's quite true: you get better food and medical care in prison!

Well, given the numbers involved[^], you're right not to try to do it by phone.
I love this statement to bits:Quote: In the last forty years, incarceration has increased with rates upwards of 500% despite crime rates decreasing nationally.

Who thought that imprisoning criminals leads to a reduction of crime? He must be crazy!

..that is not what it is saying; crime is going down, and yet there are more criminals locked up.
Which is not surprising, given the monetary incentive

If a criminal is locked up he isn't able to commit crimes, thus the decrease. It just means that police forces are better at jailing criminals before they can commit a relevant number of crimes.

First part of your argumentation is incorrect. You can commit crimes while being locked up. You are also assuming that crimes are mostly committed by repeating criminals.

Not a bad assumption in the US, at least according to this link.

The Dutch have already built one wall; all <you know who> needs to do is to flood Belgium and Germany, and they'll build the others themselves.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

The trouble is that if you rope that "horse" of yours to the bars, it's likely to pull the whole building away.

I think it has enough torque to do that.

Why waste the gas. There are a lot of jails here where if you time it right, you can walk right out the front door.
