Actually, Air Marshalls carry the.357 SIG, a round that was chosen for its higher penetration than more standard 9mm or.40 SW rounds. The reason a round with better penetration was desired is that it is likely they will have to shoot through a seat and the fact that, despite what Hollywood says, shooting a window on a passenger jet will not explosively decompress the plane and cause people to get sucked out like they are in outer space.
There are two electric companies in the Metro Phoenix area, SRP and APS. You are correct that last year APS wanted a connection charge but only got a fraction of what they wanted, around $5 per month. However, SRP is not required to get outside approval for rate changes like APS is and just introduced an additional $50 per month connection charge for customers with solar. Now APS has once again submitted a request for an increased connection charge and was able to get an additional $21 per month charge approved. I was in the process of putting solar on my home and had signed a contract when this new charge was announced. Luckily, I was still within the 3 day cancellation window and was able to back out.
What? So in a population of 10 people; one has an IQ of 50, 8 have an IQ of 100, and 1 has an IQ of 150. What percentage of people are below average intelligence? How many are below mean intelligence (hint: see previous question).
The show has 350million viewers worldwide making it one of the, if not THE, most watched shows in the world.
If they pretended it ran out of charge so they could visual demonstrate that if you run out of charge you need to get a tow rather than a 5 gallon gas can, that's acceptable. If they said the brakes broke and they didn't, that's unacceptable.
Well 3 years ago I wanted to buy a 24" monitor, all were 1920x1200. I ended up settling for a 22" at 1680x1050 due to price. Yesterday I went to the store and low and behold, the highest resolution I could find from 23"-28" was 1920x1080. So I bought a 27" LG that looked decent but when I got it home and hopped on slashdot the text looked like shit. 1920x1080 is not good enough for a 27" display to be used with a PC. So I took it back and got the Asus 25.5" I am using right now. I didn't notice it the first time but it is one of the few monitors left that are over 1080p. 1920x1200 is decent enough at 25". The only other monitors over 1080p that I have seen are 30" @ 2560x1600. Unfortunately they start around $800 more than this Asus. We have definitely gone backwards.
Actually there is evidence that it was duck tape first and when it started being used on ducts the name changed. Of course, HVAC ducts is one of the only things I wouldn't use duct tape on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_tape#Etymology
Name one other context where the authorities take fingerprints. Hm? Kinda hard, isn't it? Or maybe your standards are just way too low for your own good.
- Buying a machine gun
- Getting a concealed carry permit
- UK requires fingerprints for passports
- Getting a job as a teacher
- Getting a job as a firefighter
- Getting a job as a cop
- Getting a job at a daycare
You are only treated like a criminal when you are arrested, that is your fingerprints go on file at the FBI CJIS. When you get a criminal background check as a visitor of the US or as a resident applying for a job you are not treated like a criminal because once they have compared your fingerprints to the CJIS database and found no matches they are required by law to destroy the copy of your fingerprints they took.
Yes. Toyota decided the least convoluted way of admitting to software issues was to have a government agency of a foreign country (NHTSA) call in another agency (NASA) to look for software bugs as part of that foreign country's investigation into the matter.
In this economy my company's HR dept. has started accepting unemployment statements as work history. 2 years ago a 6 month gap would leave you unhireable.

Pretty much the same can be said of most other places where heat is required in the winter to not freeze to death.

So not an RTG then?

4.1 cents per kWh in Arizona.
More people die every single year simply falling off roofs installing solar panels than from nuclear power plants.
So it does the same thing then?
Just a big magnetic field which would make it really hard for any kind of civilisation to get pass bronze age.
Genuinely curious. Why?

Do you need the link to download the actual browser as well or can you handle it from here?
The prius was being driven "all out" the whole time, while the bmw matched the speed of the prius. FTFY

Not true at all
So if they had a Gen II plant this wouldn't have happened? Why don't they have a Gen II (or III) reactor?

I can, but that's because I'm not a penniless hippie.
