  1. Re:Blame the farmers .. yeah ! on Antibiotic-Resistant E Coli Reaches The US For The First Time (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    I work for an organic dairy and we are already banned from using antibiotics on our cows. If a cow gets sick enough that they require antibiotics then they are culled from our production heard, treated and then sold to a non-organic dairy.

    Shirley, that'd be Big Ugly Fat Fucker. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    And stop calling me Shirley! I picked the wrong day to stop smoking.

    So how much of the work does the eventual owner have to do on the firearm? If you want to register a kit car as a custom vehicle you have to have put a certain number of hours into it, as I recall, or maybe a percentage of the total hours.

    The part that gets the serial number from the manufacturer is considered the firearm. In the case of an AR style rifle this would be the lower receiver, For a 1911 handgun this would be the frame. As to how much work has to be done .. 20% or more. This is why many companies will sell 80% complete parts along with the jigs and drills / mills to complete them. So for an AR the upper receiver, stock, buffer tube, trigger group, bolt carrier group etc can all be purchased complete and as long as you do the 20% to finish the blank receiver you have a legal firearm with no manufacturer record and no serial number. As long as this weapon is intended for personal use this is entirely legal.

  4. Re:Fingers crossed for artificial vertebrae on Paralyzed Woman Walks Again With 3D-Printed Robotic Exoskeleton · · Score: 2

    Well for one thing the spinal cord lies within the lamina of the vertebrae thus preventing an easy replacement of a damaged vertebrae. This alone makes it rather impractical to replace them. As someone who has had the lamina of L-3 - L-5 removed due to having numerous disk herniated I know a little about it. Now if you had suggested 3d printed disks I would think it very possible.

  5. Re:No on National Lab Working To Mix Metals and Polymers For 3D Printing · · Score: 1

    Actually printing production can also be done with ink jet printers. Have you ever looked at any of the grand format printers from companies like Gandi or vutek? 5 meter platens and 4 to 8 color printing. http://w3.efi.com/Vutek/Products

  6. Re:Why not just fill the mine? on How Do You Move a City? · · Score: 1

    No, not in Sweden. The local people are going to have no say unless they pull an ethnic-minorities card - for instance if the town were a Suomi sacred site or something.

    The fact that most people there are Suomi and that its in the far north (which in Sweden means Hicks a-la Bob and Doug Mackenzie) indicates that Swedes in the south will not give a rats ass what hardship it causes.

    FTFY and the Mackenzie brothers were from Canada not Sweden. Obviously you must be thinking about the Muppets and the Swedish chef.

    Ahhh but you see that is exactly what "They" want you to think.
