From Wikipedia (b/c I'm too lazy to pull a 20lb art history text off my bookshelf):
The Girl with a Pearl Earring (Dutch: Het Meisje met de Parel) is one of Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer's masterworks and as the name implies, uses a pearl earring for a focal point. The painting is currently housed at The Mauritshuis in The Hague. It is sometimes referred to as "the Mona Lisa of the North" or "the Dutch Mona Lisa".
Painted circa 1665-1675
More likely that FF X's Rikku is supposed to resemble this young servant girl.

It's easy to judge the informant as "evil" because we know the grave medical condition of the man, Stevens.
You must understand that Amarillo is a politically and culturally conservative city. The informant probably gave no thought to calling the police beyond "I smell pot. Pot is illegal."
And no, I don't live there and I'm not from there. I just have a small familiarity with the place.

Well, you're sorta right, Project. A true honor system would be "pay what you think it's worth", like what Radiohead did with their last album.
Since this bakery is posting actual prices for their goods, how they collect is up to them. If someone is deliberately not paying the posted prices, the bakery has the right to remove them from the premises.
PS: the article contains no reference to support "they've announced there are no rules".
