Similar prices here - our petrol prices recently bottomed out at 106.4p per litre[^], which Google tells me is about $6.09 per gallon. I've previously seen prices upwards of £1.40 per litre / $8 per gallon.

I am using IE 11 on Windows 7 with Trend Micro security installed. I visited many websites and there are no any problems, but when I try to log in www.visualstudio.com and try to download Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate trial version, I got connection error.
I tried three computers in my home and they all got the same errors.
any clue on this? hope this message does not violate any rules here.

How about a gelding knife then...
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?

Company is doing Oxycodone testing two days next week. For me the test is not a problem, however they are closing the men's restroom to use for the testing. 
Now, I am an old fart. I have GI issues and closure means I will need to go down two flights of stairs to get to a restroom. 
Think I will call in sick and only come in for my scheduled test.

The problem with having a drug test is all the revising you need and need to do.

Can't they just give people the Oxycodone at their desk? It's not like it's some sort of pull-down-your-pants injectable.
Besides, I don't see why it needs much testing as it's already known to work.
Are there other drugs to test? Do you get to volunteer or do they assign them to you. Just a suggestion: don't volunteer for laxative testing as it could be a mind-blowing experience.
As for the restroom closure - only the Men's restroom? Are they only testing men? I believe that's usually found to be illegal these days. Sexual discrimination or some such matter.

Isn't it a test for Oxycodone (and other opiates) conducted via a urine test?
I'd suspect you'd want a bathroom for that...and the same bathroom can be used for both genders without adding any "embarrassment factor" of tampon dispensers etc. if you use the male restroom.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Test for it? I thought they were testing with it.
It would certainly smell better.
Aside: what have you got against tampon dispensers? That's really it, isn't it! Some sort of trauma I suppose. Now is the time to disclose it - purge it - and move on.
Meanwhile - I think I'll curl up into fetal position and try to remember if I took my meds.

Personally? Nothing - but there are some people for whom the whole subject is a red-rag!
