There are a lot of good explanations, but I think I can be more concise:

Universal health care is a healthcare system that's available to all, regardless of financial status. In Canada, our health system is administered by the Federal government (via the Canada Health Act), and funded through tax revenues.

Any Canadian (or more broadly, anyone that meets the residency requirements) is automatically covered, at no cost, for most (but not all) medical services.

Certain categories aren't included under the services outlined in the Canada Heath Act (dental and vision care, and prescription medications), but there are supplementary health plans available for those that ease the financial 'sting' a little.

It's more like, there is neither without the other. You can't move in space without moving in time, and vice versa.

So, my slightly-headache-inducing answer: if the universe is infinite in size, then the ring is traveling through space-time just like we are. If space is finite, then the ring just hasn't reached the 'boundary' of whatever spacetime object we're contained in (what happens when it gets there is a question I'll happily leave to philosophers and quantum physicists).

In either case, there must be space for the ring to occupy while it travels, which necessitates the existence of time outside the ring.

To explain this, we have to go over what 'parole' means.

For a life sentence, an inmate must serve at least 25 years before being eligible for parole. For lesser sentences, they're usually eligible after serving a certain minimum number of years.

However, life without parole is just that -- the inmate is never going to be granted parole. That does not, however, forgo the possibility that their sentence may be commuted (changed to a lesser sentence).

If the sentence is commuted, the inmate must remain on good behavior for the remaining portion of their sentence, or the commutation may be rescinded and the original sentence reinstated.

Even if they're eight years into the 'plus ten years' portion and are almost guaranteed to be released on parole in the next six months, they risk going right back to life without parole if they misbehave during that time.

It's basically a way to ensure that they're not abusing the privilege of a commuted sentence just to shorten their time behind bars.

I didn't know for sure, so I did a quick search:

>“It's is safest to shut off your vehicle to avoid a fire, static electricity or a check engine light,” says Lauren Fix, an ASE certified technician and sector analyst at The Car Coach. “The fire risk is that the fumes burn, not the liquid. This could lead to an explosion.”
