It was merely a passing reference to all the Military Intelligence (apologies for the oxymoron), military hardware and advice that the US has never, at any time, sold/given to Saddam Hussein. Especially not during the Reagan Administration (but including the other times when this clearly did not happen)
Just about every other nation looks at the U.S. in a bad light these days because we're prudish, invasive, annoying, and hipocritical.
Hate to break it to you, champ, but it's been that ways since 1789. It ain't going to change anytime soon.
We've liberated the French two times and they were selling Stinger missiles to Saddam during the arms embargo via the 'oil-for-food' program, promulgating the largest fraud in world history. That's hypocritical demonstrated. Any volunteers for the others?
Put some wireless sensor nodes across the bridge and sense for unusual vibrations between the intersections. That's what Wireless Sensor Networks is all about. When there is a crack the vibrations will cause a signal to be sent out. Now all you need to do is raise enough money to employ enough civil engineers who are competent enough to analyse that data, give them the equipment and plans they need and hope that nothing goes wrong... and of course, the more civil engineers you hire the more expensive we get:)
even better would be 13 things a single person could do to improve the health of the environment and 13 things people can do about the effects of global warming. I'm thinking of things like "stop building on floodplains", "stop building below sea level", "stop building glass buildings that overheat" etc.
CO2 gets lots of attention, but as TFA states, global warming lags some time behind the CO2 levels, and it's going to get a lot warmer before it gets colder whatever happens in the atmosphere over the next few years.
