I would like to see the energy output from that glass tile before and after being hit. Just because the glass is bound up in some layers, preventing it from flying all over the place, does not mean it isn't broken and useless. Ever see a sheet of tempered glass that shatters, but stays in place?
Additionally, I would like to see his test done with a dozen weights being dropped, since that is what the OP is describing as a common occurrence in his location.
You think someone that "should have been indicted" is the best choice?
I've said many times that I voted for Jill Stein of the Green Party in 2012, and plan to this time as well. I don't even agree with most of their platform. But she at least is an honest person. I would much rather have an honest person filling that office than either Trump or Hillary.
And, no, I don't vote Libertarian because that party has worse a platform than the Greens do.
No your comment is pure unadulterated idiocy. Go learn what hyperbole means.
Hmmm. Hyper-bole. I know that "bole" is a tree trunk, and that "hyper" is when a kid is running around and screaming cause his mom won't smack him and tell him to settle down.
So, with those two items in mind, "hyper-bole" seems to be referring to that scene in that elf movie where the trolls were getting the shit kicked out of them by the walking forest. That Treebeard fellow was awesome, by the way.
then the customers must think it's worth the expense. As for me, I'm just running on a borrowed internet connection. Cable TV or internet is too expensive in my view.
But then, I don't watch sports, so I'm not held hostage by a need to watch ESPN.
When I was in the military (mid 1990s), several of the senior enlisted guys went that route. None of them reported any complications, and recommended it to others who "had enough kids already".
We were stationed in Kaneohe, Hawaii, so they called themselves the 'Kaneohe Klipper Klub'.
Just make sure it's with a good doctor, and a clean clinic. You don't want to get an infection in that area.
Your comment would carry more weight if you looked at the record of losses in Iraq. Only a single A-10 was lost in the entire eight years of the Iraq war. It was lost in 2003, but that is as far as your post is relevant. In that same period 129 helicopters and 23 other fixed-wing aircraft were lost, for various reasons. Seems lika a good record for the A-10.
In America, if you own the land, you own the mineral resources under it. Many other countries nationalize mineral resources. Nearly all those countries are poorer and less productive than America, especially in the mining sector.
Many people have found out that that is not true. Locally, a company that owned the mineral rights proved that they have the right to extract the limestone under other people's property. Quite the court battle. Mineral rights can be sold separately. This also happens a lot with natural gas. The company buys the land, and then sells it to people while retaining the mineral rights of the land underneath the surface.
So they bought the land, minus the mineral rights. The contract they signed specifically stated they were not buying the mineral rights. And the price they paid for a nice lot to build a house on was much cheaper than if they bought the same land with full mineral rights to it.
My point is that Dr Gosnell considered what he did to be abortion, not murder. Further, plenty of people at the time supported him, and only dropped their support after he was convicted. And now many of those same people pretend he never existed, and pretend that nothing like his practices could ever happen.
Re, late term abortion: just over 1% of abortions are late term. Of these, the overwhelming majority are due to severe fetal deformities/other issues - commonly fatal.
Are you one of the people that pretend that Dr. Kermit Gosnell didn't exist?
20th century SF thought it'd be cryonegenics, but I believe biological immortality will be the answer. While stopping aging is, like the cure a cancer, still vapourware despite people promising over and over that "it's close", it's safe to assume it'll be done in no more than 50-100 years. Then, we'll discover some new health conditions that appear only at the age of 200+ and kill people, these will need to be dealt with. Then, a new generation will have similar problems at the age of 1000+. But fast forward a few such iterations and humans will really live forever,
According to Isaac Asimov, that will be the death knell of the human race.
accidents,
No one will do anything dangerous anymore. Now we have people risking their lives, willing to chance losing 40-80 years, for the thrill of the moment. When people can expect to live 1000 years, who is going to go skydiving in their first century and chance losing 900 years of life? Those few that do, or who start later, will eventually weed themselves out of the population. Not just skydiving of course, but racing, scuba diving, rock climbing, and other "thrill sports".
Traffic accidents will eventually be all but eliminated for the same reason. No one will drive themselves, once self-driving cars get to the point of near-complete safety. And many people will stop going out anyway, because those self-driving cars can deliver groceries, clothes, toys, etc. with no need to risk death by going to the store or shopping malls.
murder
will happen at times, but again, as time goes on, the people who would perform this activity will be removed from society.
and heat death of the Universe notwithstanding.
We'll never survive to see it.
Then there's hard AI, which can also be considered a form of earthlings...
More likely than human immortality, but then you have to worry about Skynet.
Nor is advertising on a network that caters to a minority.
I see. So targeting ethnicities is wrong, but targeting minorities is fine. Thanks for clarifying that.
Now you're just being an ass, trying to twist his words. I don't agree with the anti-discrimination laws to begin with, and would rather make racists be public about it. But there is an obvious difference between specifically excluding an ethnic group by clicking an option that is just for that purpose, and choosing a TV channel that anyone of any ethnic group can watch.
I'm not discussing shapes of anything at all. The AC before me simply thinks that anything that sticks out must be a penis. I pointed out he was mistaken.

"Solar FREAKIN' Roof Tiles!"

The fact that you think "owning a house" is a "trapping" of any class says a lot.
Are the blueprints used to build it marked up in English or Spanglish?
Then show us with direct citations from the congressional record, HRC's lies. Can't can you? .
Do you look beyond MSNBC and Huffington Post for your daily news intake?
How do you manage to be wrong in multiple ways on both points you claim?

That's how Hillary wiped Anthony's weiner clean.
There's no real evidence of Hillary's lies,
You don't think Congressional testimony counts as evidence?

Both numbers are at a very respectable level.

A good case of the exception proving the rule.

Best comeback line ever.
I've looked up "Key grip" and "best boy" before. I know they are specific jobs, but can't remember what.
It's a self-explanatory term.
Hardly.
The person who runs the show and has the highest control over it.
So, the showrunner is the director. Or maybe the producer. The head of the studio? President Obama?
