GOLD IS WEIGHED IN TROY OUNCES OR TROY POUNDS, WHERE THERE ARE ONLY 12 TROY OUNCES PER TROY POUND. THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT SPECIFIED ON THE BRIDGE WILL BE USING THE NORMAL IMPERIAL SYSTEM FOR MEASURING WEIGHT, WHERE THERE ARE 16 POUNDS TO AN OUNCE. BECAUSE OF THIS 36 POUNDS OF GOLD (WEIGHED USING THE TROY SYSTEM), WILL ONLY WEIGH ABOUT 29 STANDARD IMPERIAL POUNDS. THIS MEANS THAT HER TOTAL WEIGHT, INCLUDING BOTH GOLD BARS, IS LESS THAN 130 POUNDS. AN ALTERNATIVE ANSWER WOULD BE: THE GIRL WOULD SIMPLY THROW ONE OF THE GOLD BARS UP IN THE AIR WHILE HOLDING THE OTHER IN A JUGGLING MANNER. THUS, SHE WOULD NEVER BE HOLDING MORE THAN 118 POUNDS AS LONG AS SHE THREW THE OPPOSITE BAR UP BEFORE SHE CAUGHT THE OTHER ROGERS COULD NOT HAVE KNOWN THAT HIS EX-WIFE HAD BEEN SHOT UNLESS HE HAD THE GUILTY KNOWLEDGE OF THE CRIME. THE MAID DID NOT SAY WHY SHE HAD BEEN TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. YET ROGERS' FIRST WORDS ON ENTERING THE HOSPITAL WERE, "WHO SHOT HER?" SHE WILL HAVE FIVE PIECES OF CHAINS AFTER THE 2 CUTS. THE CHAINS WILL HAVE LOOPS OF 1, 1, 3, 6 AND 12. THE CHAIN IS MADE UP OF INTERLOCKING LOOPS. SO WHEN YOU MAKE 1 CUT IN THE CHAIN IN THE MIDDLE, YOU WOULD END UP WITH 2 CHAINS AND 1 CUT LOOP. SO 2 CUTS IN THE MIDDLE WOULD LEAVE YOU WITH 3 CHAINS AND 2 CUT SINGLE LOOPS. SO THE JEWELER MAKES ONE CUT ON THE 4TH LOOP MAKING A 1 CUT LOOP, A 3 LOOP CHAIN, AND A 19 LOOP CHAIN. THEN A CUT ON THE 7TH LOOP OF THE 19 LOOP CHAIN LEAVING A 1 CUT LOOP, A 6 LOOP CHAIN, AND A 12 LOOP CHAIN. SO AT THE END SHE HAS 1 CUT LOOP, ANOTHER 1 CUT LOOP, A 3 LOOP CHAIN, A 6 LOOP CHAIN, AND A 12 LOOP CHAIN FIRST CUT THE CAKE INTO 4 EQUAL PIECES WITH 2 CUTS ON THE TOP - ONE HORIZONTALLY DOWN THE CENTER OF THE CAKE AND THE OTHER VERTICALLY DOWN THE CENTER OF THE CAKE LIKE A CROSS ('+'). NEXT IS TO CUT THE 4 PIECES INTO HALF WITH A HORIZONTAL FINAL CUT ON THE SIDE. THIS WILL GIVE YOU 4 PIECES OF CAKE ON TOP AND 4 PIECES OF CAKE UNDERNEATH
