R2D2 spoke Astromech Droid. If you recall Luke's X-Wing had a translation screen in it in Empire and later on in Return of the Jedi it seemed as if Luke understood Astromech himself.
So the poster didn't even see the film, they used a freaking antenna on the alien space ship to wirelessly send the virus. I recall some sort of dialup/PPP interface.
And they knew they could do it because the aliens were using Earth commsats and our communications infrastructure to send out the orders for the invasion of Earth.
It would never happen, to update the Constitution requires three-fourths of the state legislatures to approve a change and theres no way three-fourths of the states would ever approve it.
Its not a coup issue, it is a state's rights issue and civil liberties issue, the general consensus in the US after Reconstruction in the 1860s and 70s was the US military shouldn't be able to operate on US soil and oppress the civilians or state government.
No, the National Guard of the United States and Air National Guard of the United States are reserve military forces composed of state National Guard militia members or units under federally recognized active or inactive armed force service for the United States.
They become part of the US military when their units are Federalized or "called up". The National Guard units operate under their respective state governor or territorial adjutant general. The National Guard may be called up for active duty by state governors or territorial adjutant general to help respond to domestic emergencies and disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes.
Some US Army Divisions are made up of various National Guard units, like the 40th Infantry is California, Oregon, Hawaii, Arizona, Washington, Alaska, New Mexico, Indiana, Nebraska, Utah and Guam Guard units.
The DoD funds their equipment and some of the training, but they are state militia units most of the time and if called up for a natural disaster or crisis are acting as a State force, not a Federal force.
By that list, if a US embassy is attacked it blocks out the whole year as a war year.
The author has the casualty rates for the first entry (300 at Wounded Knee) wrong - 150 died, 40-60 were wounded on the Lakota side with 33 dead and 31 wounded on the US Army side. Notably the highest US Army death tolls after Little Bighorn.
His entry for Cuba - CUBA 1898-1902 (-?)Seized from Spain, still hold Navy base. The note about Gitmo and the ?, does that mean in his mind we are still at war with Cuba because the US has a lease on Gitmo, it's not "still holding", it's a lease. By that, do all the Lend Lease base leases the US had and have count as an occupation?
United States was involved in military actions in 1995 - Bosnia no fly zone , Iraq No Fly Zone and occupation of Bosnia following Dayton Agreement.
Indian Wars ended in 1891, so 1891 to spring of 1898. 1935 to 1941, 1954 to 1960, 1975 to 1979, 1980-1982, 1984 to 1990, then with no fly zones over Iraq, war or military action since 1990.
Thats true except for 737-900s and new components from vendors like Honeywell (this example) are designed in the world of WiFi and other 2.4 GHz devices.
The two VC-25s (the 747-200Bs for the President), the four E-4 Airborne Command Posts (747-200) 68 E-3 Sentry (707s), 17 E-8 JSTARS (707-320s) and the 16 E-6 Mercury (707-320s) are known US civilian aircraft that have been hardened.
Military aircraft like the VH-60N and VH-3D helicopters, B-52s (which have dropped nuclear weapons), B-1B, B-2A and F-15E which are all designated as strategic and tactical nuclear strike aircraft are heavily shielded as well.
Except for the fact that the US has spend hundreds of millions of dollars over decades testing EMP effects on American weapons and hardening those weapons.
As do the Europeans, Chinese, Japanese and the Soviets used too
737-NG has been in operational since 1998, so no they aren't over 30 years old.
767-600 came out in 1995 and was first operational in 1998 737-700 came out in 1993 with first operational aircraft in 1998 737-800 came out in 1994 with first operational aircraft in 1998 737-900 came out in 1997 and was first operational in 2001 737-900ER came out in 2006 and was first operational in 2007
Of course Jesus was a Rabbi, perhaps he went to yeshiva, perhaps it was some sort of lay ministry deal like his cousin John was doing, and of course he was married.
When the Biblical Canon had been decided by about 150-175 CE it was already self-censored to what the proto-Christans wanted it to say and to separate from the Jews. Proto-Christians were getting enough trouble without tying themselves to the rebellious Jews.
3-5% in rural areas and 10-12% in urban areas are the going estimates for 1st century BCE literacy rates last time I looked.
If everyone was illiterate why are there discussions in the New Testament implying literacy being the norm? By 60 CE the establishment of organized schools had been decreed and started in Palestine.
Jesus’ parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16:6-7) implied literacy in the normal course of business in 1st century CE Jewish society. http://net.bible.org/#!bible/Luke+16
No, at the state level isn't still a representative republic. I voted for House and Senate members to represent my district in the Alaska State House, I vote for city council members to represent my district in the Municipality of Anchorage government.
I get a direct say on changes to the state Constitution.

100,000 coal miners died in the US from mining accidents between 1900 and 2011.
How many people have died from this accident so far?
0.
How many died from Three Mile Island?
0.
So in 56 years of civilian nuclear power no one has died in the West from it.
In 2007 for example, 47 coal miners died in the United States from mining accidents, an energy source that puts out more radiation than nuclear power.
In 2010 the Anacortes Washington refinery fire killed 5 workers.
If we are going to discuss energy safety, oil and coal seem to be better topics than nuclear fission.
"Getting sick" is the least of northern Japan's worried right now. Thousand dead with thousands more likely to be confirmed dead.

C-3PO understood it as well.

When Federalized, some National Guards are large enough to be entire US Army Divisions, like the 28th Infantry is made up of Pennsylvania National Guard.

When the Chinese, Chile and Indian Ocean quakes happened, Ham was the only ways to get data out of some areas.
Same goes for coordination during Hurricane Frances, 9/11, 2003 North America blackout and Hurricane Katrina.

You are correct, the poster I replied to said powwow are real English words.
The two VC-25s (the 747-200Bs for the President), the four E-4 Airborne Command Posts (747-200) 68 E-3 Sentry (707s), 17 E-8 JSTARS (707-320s) and the 16 E-6 Mercury (707-320s) are known US civilian aircraft that have been hardened.

Powwow isn't an English word, its a Narragansett word.
The planes in question, 737-NG are never going to be more than 13 years old with the designs dating back in 1993 at the earliest.
Except for the fact that the US has spend hundreds of millions of dollars over decades testing EMP effects on American weapons and hardening those weapons.
As do the Europeans, Chinese, Japanese and the Soviets used too
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:E-4_advanced_airborne_command_post_EMP_sim.jpg - EMP generator at Kirkland AFB
And here is a company that does corporate EMP testing - http://www.dtbtest.com/EMP-Testing.aspx
Do you really think the US military is incapable of flying bombers and fighters in a nuclear environment?
737-NG has been in operational since 1998, so no they aren't over 30 years old.
767-600 came out in 1995 and was first operational in 1998
737-700 came out in 1993 with first operational aircraft in 1998
737-800 came out in 1994 with first operational aircraft in 1998

1783 to 1791 is 8 1794 to 1798 is 4 more, then 1805 to 1812 is 7 years, then 1815 to 1836 is 21
So thats 40 years without war pretty easy and pretty contiguously.
Top speed for a 757-223 is 573 mph, which is 256.15 meters per second.
Max takeoff weigh for a 757-200 series is 115,680 kg with 42,680 L of fuel.
So burn off some of the fuel and ballpark it weighing about 95,000 kg when it hit
The photo you linked to was from an engine that punched through the second ring wall after it came off the aircraft.

That was a very whiney "letter", its why some technology people sit at home in the dark on the weekends alone.
And home is Mom's basement.
They can fold or sheer, the momentum of the objects will make them continue on into the building, which is where they found the wreckage.
Stalin sure went to Church, he went to seminary for 9 or 10 years.
But that's not why he was an asshat, he was an asshat because of ideology.
