Mine has, but then there are still some places that send out paper forms that need to be filled out in duplicate (don't ask me why they haven't moved to 1970s technology). I give left over carbon paper to my kids to draw with.
You should have seen some of the windows at my place of work. No diagrams of microphones but after running out of white board space (we even took all the movable ones from around the rest of the floor) we migrated to drawing diagrams on the windows. By the end of that project the room was reminiscent of the movie "A Beautiful Mind"
Yes they do. Granted they have a bigger selection of phones or RC vehicles it seems. The parts are basically relegated to a few shelf feet off in a back corner of the store, usually the one farthest from the door. At least that is how the one near my house is. I only go there when I want something today and micro center doesn't have it as they tend to be fairly expensive.
To me this sounds like it is time to file a bunch of freedom of information act requests. The bigger question is what if anything will the media do with this newf ound info.
That seems fairly straightforward I would assume that means that were the ice is sitting the the ground that ground is below sea level. What I wonder is what this means:
Its "bed" tends towards the land. The danger therefore exists that these large ice masses will become unstable and will start to slide.
Specifically the bed tends towards the land part as that is terminology I am not familiar with.
A sure sign that you really should be using more gasoline. Maybe try a few orders of magnitude more, it will eventually displace all the oxygen surrounding the fire.
Also how many stories do you see about someone safely using a firearm for something not illegal. I usually see one story a year in the local paper about it and it is always on the back of the sports section below the fold in a weekday edition about some phenomenal hunt someone did. Granted the only time you see news about vehicles is when they are involved in a crime but then most people see other people legally and relatively safely operating vehicles while the same isn't true with firearms. A good responsible hunter won't be noticed (except for the blaze orange) and once they are done hunting you would never have known they were there. This is most hunters but it only takes a few bad ones to get noticed like the ones who leave trash all over the woods, gut their deer on the trails, shoot a bunch of squirrels and birds when deer hunting, trespass, shoot signs, etc. I think what I hate most is that the media will say things like "the hunter was out poaching" which annoys me to no end since if they were out poaching they are a poacher not a hunter don't lump them in with me.
It may actually shock you but I would suggest having mandatory firearm safety training for everyone, in school regardless if they individual ever want to get a firearm. This is what a number of states do for drivers education currently so why not do the same for firearm safety. This would probably also help to get some people over their irrational fear of firearms as well. There are a number of valid courses that would make effective training courses for the general population. The most intensive of which would be either BSA's rifle merit badge or BSA's shotgun merit badge, but even the standard firearm safety certification course or the various hunter education courses offered by some states. Personally I have been through 4 safety courses (rifle merit badge, shotgun merit badge, firearm safety, and the MN CCW permit) and the most detailed and in depth ones were the 2 boy scout merit badges. The least useful one from a safety and competency perspective was the MN CCW course but since I wanted to carry a loaded sidearm to protect against large predators (I have had close encounters with wolves, bear, and cougar) when walking to and from camp down the road I needed the carry permit. I was stalked by a wolf pack with one trying to drive my back into his friends, the bear I came across was trying to get into a hollow log with its ass hanging out, and the cougar walked under my deer stand like it owned the place. Those are the confirmed instances where I actually saw the animals but I have seen plenty of evidence for them like fresh bear prints, wolf print, and cougar prints (only recently) through out the area as well as seeing fresh bear claw marks on trees, and hearing the wolves at night just outside of camp (this is why we bring the dog)..
No. I wouldn't want an unsafe firearm. I want one that will reliably fire every time I want it to fire and only fire when I want it to. I don't want one that will have a barrel that might explode or shoots some place that I didn't point it. Being that all firearms made recently fit those requirements there really aren't any unsafe firearms. There are however lots of negligent and reckless owners of firearms and people who don't properly maintain their firearms which makes those individuals a danger to themselves and those around them.
The biggest problem I see is a lack of Gun Education, and proper handling of a firearm.
This a thousand times. I really wish more non firearm owners were like you who don't have the crazy fear or hatred of firearms. There does seem to be a lack of training and respect for firearms among the general population and thus firearms really are very dangerous when not handled properly because they don't have a clue what they are doing. I own firearms and keep them properly stored (large fireproof safe bolted to the concrete floor in my basement), always handle them correctly (follow all the rules from all of the various safety courses I have ever had), and show them proper respect (it isn't something to show how tough I am and isn't an extension of my cock). I also don't believe in accidental shooting as every one I have ever read about that is called accidental is really negligent or outright reckless. Now granted I could probably contrive a case that I would consider an accidental shooting but there is probably a better chance of getting struck by lightning.
I have no idea either and I read the whole article which does use the ambiguous phrase of better. As others have mentioned maybe it means a smaller spread but then I am not a finance guy but given how it affects just about everything I try to stay somewhat up on things.
The real "independent" body is the SEC but they seem to want to sit on their hands waiting to get cycled back into private industry where they can make real money instead.
Hell companies figured that out long ago and don't need the NSA to do it for them. Every company out there seems to offer a store brand credit card, savings card, or some other program that is free to join and offers some token benefit. People snap them up to save $0.06 on a case of soda every 3 months. Now toss in that there are cross promotions between multiple companies and you can gather all sorts of info. For example in my area there is a grocery chain that has a rewards card that provided you with a fuel discount at one chain of gas stations that also happens to accept the store credit card (with additional fuel discount) of the regional home improvement store. This is one of the more open cases where the connections between the various vendors is basically out in the open but how many share data in a much more opaque manner.
If I ever can afford to outright buy a new vehicle (never had a vehicle loan in my life) I would do it as a special order and get exactly what I want instead of settling.
I actually regularly drive a 17 year old vehicle and up until recently had a 16 year old one for a daily driver and a good number of vehicles of that vintage had fairly molded dashes. My 17 year old jeep Cherokee doesn't by my daily driver did and it wouldn't have been very easy to add an aftermarket radio. My point was that a 3.5mm aux port would have been a future proof connection to include as there already was a lot of portable equipment that made use of it then. I did mention the awful cassette adapters and have plenty of memories of the issues when the adapter didn't get good contact with the heads in the cassette deck. Also it wasn't a walkman for playing CD it was a diskman.
I wonder if they can find that ebay package of mine they lost about a month ago. It made it to the regional sorting facility in AZ from the seller and then nothing. There have been a number of other things that haven't shown up or have been delayed substantially from time to time. My grandmother a few years ago sent me a check and card for my birthday that never made it to me. I had no idea until about 3 months later she asked if I was ever going to cash that check to which I replied what check? I have had my credit card bills show up a few weeks late every now and then with one showing up after it was due but I always pay online the first Monday of the month (I have a reminder in outlook to do so if I forget) and that gives me a leeway usually of just over a week.
Actually if you want to step back a little bit from the raw signal info but not got to the other extreme you have the pseudorange, dopplar shift, carrier phase, and timing data. With that kind of data you can do useful things especially if you have a unit recording it at a well know location and communicating its data to a roving unit. With such a setup you can get accuracy on the order of a few cm instead of a few meters. Now you are in the world of RTK, differential GPS, and CORS and can use GPS for autonomous navigation as there is good enough resolution to maintain lane control. The biggest problem is that there aren't many inexpensive GPS modules that provide that data but one I have found is this one which used the uBlox LEA-6t chipset. From what I can tell the time nuts guys like it as it provides a really accurate and consistent PPS signal, and the positioning nuts (like myself) like it since with multiple units can provide reliable accurate positioning.
Sounds like my recent car shopping experience for my new daily driver. Sales people looked at me like I was retarded because I didn't care about all the fancy electronic gadgets that cars have been getting over the last 10 or so years and just wanted a mechanically perfect used car with a manual transmission. I would prefer the old arm-strong windows and mechanical locks as well but I don't think that there has been a vehicle built for sale in the US in the last 10 years that had that. Why does my car key need a battery

First thing I thought was pay back is a bitch.
To me this sounds like it is time to file a bunch of freedom of information act requests. The bigger question is what if anything will the media do with this newf ound info.
I did say shootings, not wing slappings or peckings.
Sounds good to me
Sounds like we really need to install a drain in the ocean now.
My guess is it is probably equal to about 1 Chicago proper but with fewer random shooting.
Its "bed" tends towards the land. The danger therefore exists that these large ice masses will become unstable and will start to slide.

All guns are dangerous aren't they?
No.

I need to send out stuff addressed to little Bobby Tables more often. I have a few friends who would get what I am doing.
I was thinking of this one but either way it works.
